Master Tutoring Class.

Chapter 14 Diligence can make up for weakness
Upon returning to the football academy, Wei Lai immediately began his training.

Without the extra training card, he could only enter the simulation space at night when he was sleeping, but he couldn't neglect his training at other times.

Casemiro once said that his foundation was not solid enough.

Coach Iron Wall also mentioned this point.

Wei Lai appeared somewhat flustered when he had the ball.

They all agreed that his panic stemmed from a lack of confidence in his basic skills.

Therefore, aside from the system space, Wei Lai spends all his time training his basic skills.

Basic skills training boils down to a few points.

Ball control training, foot frequency training, coordination training, etc.
Ball feel training involves frequent ball contact. In addition to basic juggling, it's also important to practice the connecting movements after pulling and flicking the ball.

Coordination training builds upon ball feel training, making the body more coordinated in various movements and improving the ability to change direction and break free.

As for foot frequency training, it increases the frequency of his footwork, allowing him to touch the ball more often in a short period of time and make more feints.

But to be honest, all of these are related to talent.

Whether it's ball control, coordination, or foot frequency, there's a limit to how much talent you can have.

Some people are born with unparalleled ball control, some are born with excellent coordination and can make all kinds of movements, and some are born with fast foot speed.

Wei Lai doesn't possess any of these three qualities.

The Iron Wall coach suggested that he train his sense of rhythm, but rhythm is also a product of these training methods and needs to be developed gradually.

Phew~~~~
After practicing for two hours, Wei Lai sat on the lawn, letting his mind wander.

The image of Coach Iron Wall during the simulation training reappeared in my mind.

He silently moved around the field, thwarting the opponent's attacks time and time again.

Whether it's stealing, intercepting, or confronting.

That small body seemed to contain boundless energy. It was the first time Wei Lai had ever seen such a person, and he was genuinely startled.

Just as his title suggests, the Iron Wall Coach is like an iron wall standing across the court.

No matter where the opponent attacks from, he can quickly appear in that position and counterattack.

If Casemiro is a fierce tiger...

So, Coach Iron Wall gives people the feeling of a cheetah!
Swift and fierce!

"Anticipation!"

Wei Lai lay on his back on the lawn, gazing at the azure sky.

The words of Coach Iron Wall seemed to echo in my ears.

"Prediction isn't based on intuition, but on taking the most advantageous position according to the current game progress, observing the positions of opponents and teammates, and moving in the direction where an attack is most likely to be launched!"

I understand the logic.

However, in practice, this is not such an easy thing.

Not only do you need to observe the opponent's intentions, but you also need to observe your teammates' movements.

That's right, prediction and observation are linked!

Observing the collected intelligence can improve the accuracy of predictions.

This requires Wei Lai to maintain focus at all times during the game.

But to be honest, Wei Lai is easily distracted after maintaining full concentration for just 10 minutes in a high-intensity match.
And he needs to train for all of these!
Inside the dormitory, Guo Fan lay on his bed with his arms as a pillow, seemingly lost in thought.

In fact, failing to make it into the top-tier team at the end of the last semester was quite a blow to him.

"This year, shouldn't we be the ones to participate in the 'Future Stars Cup' in China?"

Guo Fan suddenly turned his head and said to Yuan Kai.

Yuan Kai sat down in his chair and turned around: "It should be us, since the top-tier teams will most likely be playing abroad in the second half of the year, and they hardly play any domestic matches."

"This time we're facing Guangfa's youth training team, we have to give them a good beating!" Guo Fan clenched his fist and said; "After losing last year, Chen Shaojie was incredibly smug!"

“Guangfa’s midfield is stronger than ours. We had low possession and were almost always under pressure!” Yuan Kai paused, then added, “However, it seems Chen Shaojie won’t be participating in the Future Stars competition!”

"Why?" Guo Fan turned his head.

Yuan Kai: "Didn't you see the report? He went to 'Green Field Little Lions' to be a foreign player. He's going to play abroad in the second half of the year!"

"Damn it! Why is everyone running abroad?" Guo Fan said, annoyed.

He was very anxious. These guys were all growing rapidly and adapting to the intensity of overseas competitions. Guo Fan had a certain reputation in the youth training circle, but he always felt that he was falling further and further behind that small group of outstanding players.

This is what worries him the most.

"Aren't those guys from Class A injured?" Guo Fan said, lying on his back on the bed with a headache.

If a player in the top division gets injured, the team will temporarily promote some players from the second division to join them.

As an elite team, the Class A team strictly limits its size to 15 people.

But these fifteen guys seem to be made of iron.

"I also want to play in international competitions!"

Guo Fan wailed.

Yuan Kai and Hao Shuai remained silent on this matter, sharing the same thoughts as Guo Fan.

People's mentality changes after joining a second-tier team.

This is no longer just simple practice or experimentation; they all want to strive for a professional career.

However, Willie Football School has a strict hierarchy.

Want to play in high-intensity international matches?

Let's get promoted to the top division first. If we can't even play well domestically, we'll only embarrass ourselves playing abroad!

Squeak!

The door opened.

Wei Lai walked in at this moment, carrying a black plastic bag in his hand. After entering the dormitory, he reached inside, pulled out a bright red apple, and tossed it over.

"then!"

Guo Fan caught it with one hand: "Good pass!"

He quickly wiped it on his clothes and started taking big bites.

"So sweet!"

Everyone else also received apples, and they all thanked Wei Lai.

"Wei Lai, where have you been? You've disappeared since you came back."

Guo Fan ate the apple down to just the core and carefully tossed it into the trash can.

Wei Lai: "Training!"

Guo Fan then noticed Wei Lai's soaked training clothes and the deep furrows etched on his face by sweat.

Wei Lai, munching on an apple, said, "I'm different from you guys. I don't have much talent. But hard work can make up for lack of talent, and heaven rewards diligence. I can only practice more and catch up with you guys."

Guo Fan: "You played really well. In the promotion tournament, you even defended me one-on-one!"

Wei Lai: "I was just lucky!"

Guo Fan blinked, then sprang up off the bed with a somersault, making the bed creak.

He scrambled down the stairs like a nimble monkey and rushed in front of Wei Lai.

"Wei Lai, tell me honestly, how did you determine when I needed to initiate this?"

Wei Lai turned to look at Guo Fan: "You haven't noticed yet!"

"What did you find?" Guo Fan asked, puzzled.

Wei Lai grinned. He thought Guo Fan must have noticed, but he didn't expect the guy to be dumber than he thought.

Wei Lai held up two fingers and pointed to his eyes.

"Eyes! When you start, you subconsciously determine the starting direction first, and then look down at the ball."

Guo Fan asked in surprise, "I really kicked like that?"

After saying that, he looked at Yuan Kai and Hao Shuai.

The two immediately shook their heads.

We don't know!
"How did you find out?" Guo Fan turned his head back to him.

"I just observed them a few more times while they were on the bench!" Wei Lai made up a casual excuse to brush it off.

In fact, this was a problem that Old Chen discovered, and he suffered a lot in order to correct it.
