Ground football: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him

Maksa gave Deschamps a kind smile: "We have a clear advantage if we play aggressively against them. The odds are 90/10, and the chances of losing are also 90/10. It's hard not to win unless it's an extreme situation."

"Now, the odds are 30/70 for us, but the chances of winning or losing have dropped to 40/60, or even as low as 55% for us."

"This is the series of problems that come with a poor offense. So the biggest problem we've had on the defensive end lately is essentially a lack of offensive firepower. We haven't been able to overwhelm our opponents."

"We definitely need to improve the form and ability of our defensive players. But if we don't understand the priorities, it will only backfire, and the results may get worse."

"Therefore, in summary, Pinto's frequent loss of possession is the key to the defensive problems."

Deschamps felt that Maxi had said something very new.

He didn't fully understand, but he knew it was powerful.

So this is it... attack to the death, whoever defends loses?

Matthäus, being a bit more astute, figured it out and asked, "Then why not substitute Pinto? He loses possession too often and can't hold onto the ball, mainly due to physical reasons."

"Don't we have another big center on our team? That guy, what's his name, the one who's got diarrhea all over his pants and smells absolutely awful?"

Trigra chuckled unkindly, then replied bitterly, "That's the problem. We analyzed all of Yin Bu's playing time and data, and our conclusion is... if he plays as the starting center forward, the defensive problems he causes due to losing possession will be even more severe than Pinto's!"

"In other words, Pinto is already our best center forward."

Matthäus found it hard to believe such outrageous claims.

But the data doesn't lie.

Considering Yin Bu's winger-oriented playing style, this is actually true!

……

Training Course.

Yin Bu was quite depressed.

He felt he was far superior to Drogba, not to mention the old and short João Pinto.

But these two people actually ended up on the bench one after the other.

It's outrageous!

Does this team have some prejudice against talented players?

Oh shit!

I shouldn't have come to this damn Sporting Lisbon in the first place.

I should have gone to Arsenal.

Although Wenger was impolite, he was still willing to give young people a chance.

"Yin Bu, what's wrong? You always have such a long face." Deng Kai sat down next to Yin Bu.

"Kai, it's nothing, just rest for a while," Yin Bu replied without any enthusiasm.

Now they don't call him "Young Master Kai" or "Brother Kai" anymore.

It seems he felt that clinging to powerful figures wasn't effective.

Even though you, Deng Kai, are so awesome and dominate the team, you still couldn't get your little brother, Yin Bu, into the starting lineup.

He, tui!

"The coaching staff is having a seminar today," Deng Kai said calmly.

"Oh." Yin Bumo didn't care.

Why bother telling him about the defense?

Are they planning to make Yin Bu play center back?

Don't even think about it!

Barzagli and Pepe, those idiots, only gradually retreated from the forward position because they couldn't make it on the front line anymore.

What a prodigy he was, Da Yinbu!

There's no way I'd be fooled.

"We discussed the starting center position," Deng Kai said casually. "I told the coach I think you're capable. But if you're not very interested, the coaching staff will probably have to go after Kwame Ayew."

"And then there's Cristiano Ronaldo, he's actually quite interested in the center forward position as well."

Yin Bu immediately jumped up: "Kwame Ayu? No way, he's not tall enough!"

"Cristiano Ronaldo is so fast, it's a shame he plays center forward. He's irreplaceable on the left wing!"

"I can do it. I'm fully prepared and can start anytime."

"Um... Brother Kai!"

Alright, it's Kai again this time.

This young man just treats the symptoms without addressing the root cause; his grudges and affections change too quickly, it's not a safe bet.

"However, Mr. Maxa said that if you want to start, you have to pass a test, or rather, training. I don't know if you're willing to accept that... Let me make it clear, it's very difficult, and there's a risk of injury." Deng Kaitu revealed his true intentions.

Yin Bu patted his chest: "Zlatan never fears any challenge!"

The next moment, Deng Kai waved and summoned the team's four key defenders.

"Terry and Barzagli are in one group, Pepe and Fonte are in another. They take turns intercepting the ball from Yinbu's feet, changing every ten times. The slower the player, the lower their score. This is related to the starting lineup and rotation, so you'd better pay attention to it." Deng Kai also put pressure on the four key players, "You can make tackles, the physical contact is quite intense, but don't use scissor tackles or elbows to vital areas."

Yin Bu's face turned pale.

What did he hear?

Do not elbow vital areas.

So that means you can elbow other parts of your body?

What kind of test is this?

Um... is it too late for Zlatan to be a little afraid of this challenge?

Next, a massive logging operation began.

Yin Bu has the ball and must carry it from the edge of the penalty area to the penalty spot while being double-teamed by two defenders.

The method is not limited.

Deng Kai will be responsible for calling some fouls, but he means the level of physicality will be very high, you know what I mean.

At first, Yin Bu wanted to show off his footwork, but later he didn't have the chance at all.

After being knocked down so many times, he even blushed.

But even with his black belt in karate, he alone couldn't defeat the two formidable defenders.

Besides, Mr. Maxa was watching what was happening from the window.

My dear reader, there's more to this chapter! Please click the next page to continue reading—even more exciting content awaits!

They play football for a while, then get angry, then curse each other, then get into a fight.

Training must continue.

On the first day, Yin Bu's legs were covered in bruises, as well as many scratches and abrasions.

The next day, Yin Bu also had multiple bruises on his chest and waist, and even bloodstains on his legs.

On the third day, Yin Bu's arms were also covered in bruises.

Life is getting harder every day.

However, the time it took for the Four Great Warriors to complete the task of stealing the ball from Yin Bu's feet was also lengthening.

Because Yoon Bu, who is primarily known for his athleticism, had to rely on his physicality to contend with a center-back due to the hardships of life, and then use his footwork and upper body strength to dribble past opponents.

Gradually, he was able to achieve one or two breakthroughs from time to time.

The next round of the competition is about to begin.

Yin Bu also understood the purpose of this training.

This is a test for the defense, involving two-on-one coordination, one-on-one defense, tackling drills, interceptions, tackles, and so on.

But at the same time, it also forced Yin Bu to develop his body.

Blind people have sharp ears.

He has quick legs and strong hands.

Technical players who haven't suffered physical setbacks won't think about developing their physical abilities, even if they have a wealth of talent.

Finally, when Trigra announced that Yoonbu would be the starting center forward for the next game, Yoonbu burst into tears in front of his teammates.

It wasn't just the starters who shed tears.

It was also because his grueling training was finally coming to an end.

He finally doesn't have to be torn between two men every day anymore.

Back in his room at the villa, Yin Bu mysteriously took out his treasure... his diary.

Good heavens, Mom tested positive too... Now there are four people in the family, and two of them are positive. Peach and Cicada have to take care of Mom and Dad's meals and prevent further infection. I don't know how long they can hold on...

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