Ground football: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him

Chapter 268 The Star Player Falls From Grace, Drogba's Story

Deng Kai: "It's easier to score in the Portuguese league... just kidding. The level of competition in the Portuguese league is indeed much higher than in the Portuguese second division, but fortunately, my team and I are able to adapt to this pace."

Reporter: "Seven of your players scored in this match, but none of them are in the top five of the scoring charts. How do you view this situation?"

Deng Kai: "This reflects our strong ability to create chances right now; almost everyone has a chance to score. So our opponents should be careful; any one of our players can change the score!"

Reporter: "But does this also indicate that you lack players with explosive scoring ability?"

Deng Kai laughed: "How explosive is considered explosive? Actually, both Quaresma and Ronaldo had many scoring opportunities in this game, and even Yin Bu had multiple chances to score."

"If they take all the chances, they can certainly be on the top scorers list, just like Jardel. But then we certainly wouldn't be able to score seven goals."

"In my opinion, team honors are more important than individual honors. I believe others share the same view."

Sporting Lisbon has finally returned to the top of the league table after three years! A 7-0 victory marks their biggest win of the season!

7-0 Crush on Beira-Mar! Sporting Lisbon Returns to Glory, the Wind Rises in Alvalade!

Eleven players under the age of twenty! Sporting Lisbon unleashes a youth storm!

One goal and three assists! Caesars Sporting Lisbon tops the assist charts in their first Portuguese league match! An assist hat-trick helps the team secure a club-record victory!

While people were still debating whether Deng Kai and Ronaldo were just training with the team or were substitutes, they had already become starters and even core players!

Quaresma led all competitors with the most dribbles in the match, highlighting his crucial role!

Viana has perfectly integrated into the team and is delivering a core-level performance!

Sporting Lisbon's lowest-rated player in this match, Fonte, has a higher rating than Beira-Mar's highest-rated player!

"The Ballon d'Or never ages! Matthäus unleashes another powerful shot, leading the young team to the top of the Portuguese league!"

After a quiet season, Sporting Lisbon has finally become a media darling again.

From now on, their every move will be the subject of discussion.

……

"Ding! You have won a match, your rating is SSS!"

"Received 30 basic rewards and the player drop 'Drogba's Slide Knee'."

"Drogba's Slide: The slide is the most common and classic celebration move in football, with Drogba's slide being the most widely known. Gain the blue player-level skill 'Savage Charge'. There's a chance to leave three marks on the player's knee during the slide."

"Savage Charge: Your ability to withstand physical contact is amplified when you are dribbling forward."

The so-called basic rewards are things like randomly dropping blue shards, training posts, and medical bandages.

Deng Kai was originally going to get a drop from Matthäus or Imbu.

Unexpectedly, it was Drogba who was the most straightforward one in the end.

And it was given a signature... celebratory gesture.

There are many legends about Drogba's three struts. The scientific explanation is that Drogba's hind foot was placed sideways, causing his toes and heel to plow the grass, thus creating three struts.

But the most talked-about argument is that Drogba's little brother is too exaggerated; three bars correspond to three legs, which makes perfect sense, right?

This skill certainly won't increase the length of special parts, but there's a chance that Deng Kai's knee slide will produce a mysterious three bars.

This……

If Duncan scores before Drogba, then he can only apologize to Drogba.

Of the three pillars of football, I'm probably the young master Kai.

Savage Charge is also a very useful skill.

This skill may sound crude, but almost every top midfield maestro possesses it.

Whether you're the seemingly delicate Modric, the slightly thin De Jong, or the strong De Bruyne, the formidable Pogba, etc., the ability to fight back during the attack is the foundation for their ability to break free.

A midfielder who falls over at the slightest touch will never become a good midfielder.

"Kai, let's go!"

Outside the villa, Cristiano Ronaldo juggled the ball while calling out to Deng Kai.

Behind him were Drogba, Imbula, Barzagli, Pepe, Terry, and others.

This is Sporting Lisbon's extra training group.

Initially, these people all lived in the players' dormitory.

However, because they often trained together and would go out for a bite to eat afterward, they gradually became more familiar with each other, and Ronaldo invited everyone to stay at his rented villa.

Unlike Deng Kai, Cristiano Ronaldo still has a financial burden to bear in terms of this small villa.

Seeing that everyone was very satisfied with the new apartment, he suggested that they rent together.

After discussing it, everyone agreed that the cost wasn't high, but the conditions were much better than the players' dormitory.

So every morning, everyone would run to the court together with the ball.

Of course, the path they took was a pedestrian path, some distance from the road, so there were no safety hazards.

"Here we come!" Deng Kai grabbed the soccer ball and went out the door, following everyone as they carried the ball to the training field.

Along the way, many people were taking pictures.

Some people followed behind them with a soccer ball, clearly influenced by them.

Bringing the ball to the training ground has always been a habit for both Deng Kai and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Their fame is growing as they achieve a resounding 7-0 victory in the Portuguese league.

This story, which originally circulated only locally, began to attract more people.

The government is even planning a dedicated football greenway to encourage and commemorate this act, and it could also be developed into a new tourist attraction.

It must be said that in Europe, if you play football well, there are countless possibilities.

Of course, some professional players also objected to this kind of showmanship, believing that this level of dribbling would not help professional players.

The media has also stopped Deng Kai and asked him similar questions.

Deng Kai stated, "Apart from pure imagination, any behavior that is displayed can be described as a show, the difference being that the impact is sometimes good and sometimes bad."

"If we can get more children to love football, encourage them to run and jump outside between video games, and help more people who are not involved in football to gain a simple understanding of the sport, then why don't we do it?"

"Whether this method is effective or not is not important. Me, Ronaldo, and everyone else, we have put in a lot of effort beyond this kind of dribbling. We have professional training methods. We don't just dribble like this and call it a day."

"But we can't expect all ordinary football enthusiasts to use those professional, boring, and difficult training methods, as that would diminish normal people's passion for football."

"As the world's number one sport, football needs both high-level, sophisticated matches to retain fans and more innovative promotional methods to maintain and expand its base. These are not contradictory."

I like playing football on the ground: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him.
