Chapter 8: gap

"Because you were cheated by your instincts!"
Lao Bing's cold words made Yang Yang suddenly seem to understand a lot of things.
"Everyone wants to control everything and predict future crises, as do defensive players, so Ronaldo did not sprint with the fastest speed at the beginning. This is a way to confuse opponents. , Let you unconsciously predict the point where he enters your defensive zone, and prepare for defensive response in advance. "
"But when he suddenly changed gears, it completely disrupted your plan and made you a little bit at a loss, so when you see his fake movements, you can't help reacting because you have to make up for your previous prediction errors."
When it comes to this, the old coldly sentenced.
"Sometimes, in order to make up for the mistakes made before, people will always make bigger mistakes unconsciously."
Yang Yang understood that and knew where the problem was.
In short, it is change.
Use this speed change to beat your opponent by surprise, and then guide your opponent to make mistakes.
Those stars with rich defensive experience can often rely on their own experience and ability to ensure that they do not make mistakes to the greatest extent, but even if they are facing the top Ronaldo, there is still no effective way.
In addition to fouls!
If you think about it more deeply, your recent performance in the team's lap game has been greatly improved, and the ball's efficiency is very high. Isn't it because you always sway a shot and point the finger at each other, is this not a change?
"Shouldn't it be that simple?" After thinking about it, Yang Yang asked his doubts.
"Yes, it's not that simple."
"Changes in speed are just a recipe. The real key lies in Ronaldo's outstanding pace and ability to adjust."
The picture changed again, Yang Yang's two footprints were hidden, and the remaining two were enlarged.
"You pay attention, he can control his pace as he pleases. The distance he takes in each step, and where does each step fall. These are all designed by him, and in the face of different opponents, he will take different steps. Strategy. "
"When he confronts you and the defensive dummies, the reason for speeding up is because you are mentally prepared."
"For him, there is no difference in the early half and the late half, but for the defensive player, it is quite different."
Yang Yang understood it and was completely convinced. At least he clearly realized that there was a terrible gap between him and professional players, especially players like Ronaldo.
You know, the pendulum is just one of Ronaldo's peak skills.
But it is such a seemingly simple pendulum that is easy to learn, but it contains such a profound doorway.
This is only a small part of Ronaldo's assault. This shows how extensive and profound Ronaldo's assault was at its peak. I'm afraid it has gathered the essence of Ronaldo's professional playing skills.
"There is a problem." Yang Yang now looks like an open-minded good student, "You said that Ronaldo's landing point, stride frequency and stride are designed in advance, but is he thinking about these issues in the game? ?"
"No, the game is constantly changing, and he simply cannot have time to think about it."
Yang Yang did not understand this time, "How did he do it?"
"Muscle memory." Lao Bing said concisely.
Now Yang Yang will understand.
In fact, in China, the coach who taught Yang Yang to play football has said more than once The important thing is muscle memory.
Just like Ronaldo, every time he touched the ball, every step he took was accumulated by countless times of playing and training in the past two decades. It was a muscular memory that was formed after thousands of exercises.
So, to him, playing football like this is an instinctive habit.
"I now understand why he is Ronaldo." Yang Yang heartily praised.
To become a superstar, talent is indeed part of it, but the most important thing is to practice hard.
"You have limited time now, only one night, so you are still focused on practicing this pendulum. As for how much strength you can use, it still depends on yourself." Lao Bing still said mechanically.
Yang Yang understands that soldiers are not expensive, and what he needs most is still a skill.
Training in the super training ground has another great advantage, that is, it is faster to train muscle memory than in reality, but even so, it is impossible to learn to pendulum and get through one night.
Time is running short, Yang Yang can't set any goals for himself, he can only hurry up and work hard.
…………
…………
On Saturday morning, the skate park was more deserted than usual.
Yang Yang did the same as usual. After getting up early, he said to his uncle and came to the park to train with the ball.
Playing football pays attention to practice makes perfect, winter practice three nine, summer practice three volts, there must be no slack, especially basic skills.
It is the so-called one-day practice, one-day practice, not one-day practice.
Since it is Saturday, there is no need to take classes, so Yang Yang has more training in the morning than usual. All the projects are doubled until he is sweating, and he stops breathlessly.
When he was going to rest on the bench next to the circuit, he found that a strange Dutch middle-aged was sitting on the bench sometime.
Look, he is about fifty years old, wearing a sports cap, with a golf ball logo in the middle of the cap, and a serious middle-aged man's face under the brim. His temples are all white and his figure is white. Slightly bloated, the gray sports polo shirt was stretched tightly with a big belly, and it looked like she was pregnant.
A middle-aged Dutch man sitting on a bench, holding a bottle of water in his hands, looks rather majestic.
When Yang Yang came over, he passed the water in his left hand, but said nothing.
"No, thank you." Yang Yang didn't know him either, so he wouldn't take it.
But the Dutch middle-aged was unimpressed. Instead of taking it back, he handed it closer, "Talk a few words."
From this person's expression, Yang Yang understood the meaning, this is a stubborn guy, it is not easy to refuse him.
"Thank you." Yang Yang took the water but didn't open it, but put it aside and took out the towel from his backpack to wipe his sweat.
"I have observed you for several days." Under the brim, the Dutch middle-aged squinted at the graffiti-filled wall in front of him.
"Huh?" Yang Yang didn't listen carefully.
The Dutch middle age does not repeat, but asks: "Are you from Bakken Academy?"
"Yeah." Yang Yang nodded, and Bakken School is just north of the park. It's not surprising to be guessed.
"The youth team playing for the Almere club?" The Dutch middle-aged asked again.
"Well." Yang Yang nodded.
"John Rep and Dick Fanpoor have good visions, how did you get in?"
Yang Yang glanced at the middle-aged Dutch man silently, but did not answer. From the tone of the other party, he felt that the other party seemed to be familiar with John Rep and Dick Vanpoel.
"Do you know Mr. Repp?" Yang Yang asked back.
"Of course, we are teammates of the youth team." The Dutch middle-aged replied faintly.
"Ajax?" Yang Yang was surprised.
John Rep is from Ajax, which is a well-known thing in Almere.
The Dutch middle-aged nodded lightly, "He is a young academy, but I am not. I just had the honour of being a teammate with him on the youth team for two years. Later, he was on the first team and I ..."
Although it is enough to say, Yang Yang vaguely can hear that it is estimated that his development in Ajax is not ideal.
"Your basic skills are very poor." The Dutch middle-aged shifted the subject and said.
Yang Yang is rather embarrassed. Although he is a senior football player, this is too direct.
But he nodded his head, and admitted it.
"Look, you should be 16 or 7 years old?"
"sixteen."
"John Rep moved all of Ajax's youth training to Almere. At your age, I am afraid it is difficult to pass the assessment?" The Dutch middle-aged looked at Yang Yang lightly.
From just a few words, these can be deduced. It can be seen that the other party knows Ajax's youth training system very well.
"Don't John Rep and Dick Fanpoor tell you the situation?"
Yang Yang hesitated and nodded, "Say."
"Then you still come here every day to practice harder? Don't you know, are you doing some useless work now?"
"Why do you think it's useless?" Yang Yang asked again.
"Is not it?"
"Of course not, no matter what the future is, as long as you are willing to pay, there will be gains."
"But in the end you still can't pass the assessment, is this not useless?"
Yang Yang nodded, "Not at the last minute, who knows what the result is?"
After a pause, Yang Yang looked directly at the Dutch middle-aged, "Sir, I think you should also be a football player, you should know that this is like a football game, it has ninety minutes, I only play now By eighty-five minutes, although it was still lagging behind, who would dare to say that I did n’t have a chance to make a comeback at last?
Before waiting for the Dutch middle-aged to speak, Yang Yang said again.
"How many times did Ferguson's Red Devils Manchester United make a comeback in 1999? Did they even reverse Bayern Munich to win the championship and create a great Triple Crown miracle? Isn't that the charm of football? If Ferguson and his players were When I was behind Bayern Munich, I was thinking about giving up. Is there a final reversal myth? "
Hearing this, the Dutch middle-aged man looked at the young man standing in front of him slightly. Yang Yang's words touched him, and let his hazy depression in the past six months see a faint ray of sunlight.
He never denies that he is a stubborn person, but the successive blows in recent years have brought him painful lessons, and even made him a little frustrated, but he is not a person who can listen to others' advice. He was indifferent about how to persuade friends and family around him.
But now, Yang Yang's words made him feel close, and even resonated a little.
As long as the game is not over, there is still a chance.
Without speculation, Yang Yang was reluctant to talk to him more, thanking him after sending a bottle of water, he went back with his backpack.
The Dutch middle-aged behind him silently looked at the back of Yang Yang's departure, and suddenly his mouth twitched, and he smiled.
"It's such a funny kid."
