Chapter 807 I want to learn free kick
On the second day of the game, Rong Guang enjoyed Sun Fengyang's massage in his rented apartment.

Highlights of Manchester City's Liverpool match were being played on the TV in the room, and Rong Guang was frequently violated in front of Liverpool's penalty area.

"Deborah is a little worried about you, when you keep being knocked down by the other party with various means." Sun Fengyang said to Rong Guang while massaging.

"Afraid I'll get hurt?" Rong Guang asked, lying on the massage table.

"Hmm." Sun Fengyang said as he exerted some force on his hands, Rong Guang let out a hiss. "pain?"

Rong Guang shook his head: "It's not the pain. I'm fine. I finished the game against Liverpool. Although I kept falling to the ground, there's nothing really wrong with it, just some bruises."

"But it's frightening to watch." Sun Fengyang kneaded Rongguang's ankle, which was the right ankle that made him unable to play for eight months.

"At the end of the game, I was thinking about a question, Brother Sun." Rong Guang said.

"what?"

"In the past few games, the opponent has used this tactic to deal with me, resulting in a lot less goals than before. I thought, is there any way to make me score goals even when the opponent uses foul tactics... After I saw Petrov's free kick, I wondered, would it be better if I could also kick free kicks myself?"

Sun Fengyang was massaging. Hearing what Rong Guang said, his hands stopped involuntarily.

this idea...

Think about it carefully, it is really feasible!

Rong Guang felt that Sun Fengyang's hand stopped, and he turned his head to look over: "What's wrong? Not good?"

"No, that's a good idea. Practicing free kicks can give you another way to score and make it difficult for opponents to defend you. When they know you can take free kicks, they may have to think about the consequences of fouling you... But how do you plan to practice?" Sun Fengyang asked.

"I don't know. I'm just thinking about it now. I haven't thought too much about how to do it..." Rong Guang continued to lie on the bed, letting Sun Fengyang massage his ankle.

Although the team won and Mark Hughes kept his job, things seemed to be turning around for the better.

However, Petrov's mood did not improve because the team won the ball.

In fact, he is very troubled now.

Because some media mentioned him in the news of Manchester City's win, and it was not a good thing...

"...If it weren't for Rong's beautiful turning volley, then Petrov's performance in this game is simply a joke-Rong won him at least six free kicks in the frontcourt. How many did he catch? None. The one closest to the goal hit the crossbar! As the number one free kicker in the Manchester City team, this performance is completely unreasonable..."

In fact, not many media mentioned his performance, but it was enough to bother Petrov.

He does have a free kick with his left foot, but for some reason, in the last game against Liverpool, he just didn't have a free kick.

After finally getting in shape, he hit the crossbar and made a glorious world wave.

This made him very depressed.

After being stimulated, he decided to practice free kicks for half an hour after training.

When the game training ended, Petrov stayed on the training ground, and he signaled to everyone to practice free kicks.

No one was surprised by his decision, his free-kick performance in the last game was seen by everyone.

It is also normal to perform poorly and give yourself extra training, and no one should make a fuss about it.

Petrov just stayed on the training ground.

Glory stayed with him.

It's no surprise that Rong Guang stayed - almost every day after training, Rong Guang would stay and practice for at least half an hour.There are a lot of things to practice, including shooting, dribbling, volleying, or other items. Everyone is used to it. It will be strange if Rongguang doesn't practice more one day...

Petrov was not surprised that Rongguang stayed for extra training. He pulled a basket of footballs and put them outside the penalty area, ready to practice free kicks.

However, today Rongguang did not practice his own event. When he saw that Petrov was going to practice free kicks, he watched from the side.

Petrov didn't notice Rong Guang at first, he started kicking free kicks according to his own plan.

But after kicking two balls, he had to focus on Rong Guang, because Rong Guang squatted not far from him, looking down at the football he placed on the turf...

"Uh, Rong..."

"Ah?" Rong Guang came back to his senses and looked up at him in surprise. "what's up?"

"What are you doing..."

"Nothing to do, just watch, I want to see how you kick free kicks... Hehe." Rong Guang scratched his head in embarrassment, is he stealing a lesson?

"You want to learn free kicks?" Petrov immediately knew what Rongguang wanted to do.

"Uh, so be it."

Under such circumstances, Rong Guang suddenly appeared and said that he wanted to learn free kicks. Petrov could not wonder if Rong Guang was dissatisfied with his performance in the last game, so he decided to come by himself.

If Rongguang learns to take free kicks, then his position as the number one free kicker in the team will be lost.

But...it is difficult for you to say "no" to his demands when facing such a level of players.

Besides, even if Rongguang doesn't learn free kicks, Petrov's title as the number one free kick player in the team is becoming more and more meaningless.Because he is no longer a starter, he has become a substitute, and he has less playing time. In many cases, he is not the one who takes free kicks on the court.

Petrov just hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "If you don't mind my poor skills, I can teach you."

Rong Guang quickly waved his hand: "How could I? Your free kick level is very good. You came off the bench in the game the day before yesterday, and you didn't warm up very well. You kicked free kicks when you came on the field. It's no wonder that you are in good condition."

Rong Guang explained to Petrov solemnly.

Hearing what Rongguang said, Petrov's only dissatisfaction with Rongguang disappeared.

"Let me teach you. But I'm a left-footed player, so I can only teach you how to kick a free kick with your left foot..."

Rong Guang nodded: "No problem, I can also kick with my left foot."

"Well, when I take free kicks I mainly use the instep of my left foot to curve the ball and use it to go around the wall, so when I kick it I will do it..."

Petrov made a false kick and swiped his left foot past the football.

"See clearly?" he asked.

"It seems to be clear... Let me try?" Rong Guang stood in front of the football, and then kicked the football according to what he had observed before, but the football flew high into the sky...

"Uh..." Rong Guang was a little embarrassed.

Petrov laughed: "After touching the ball, the ankle should be opened outward, which is like providing an initial track for the football so that it can fly according to the route you set. In this way..."

After saying that he was serious this time, he kicked the football, the football bypassed the wall props, drew an arc in the air, and then fell into the goal.

"If you want to make the arc bigger, you have to open your ankles a little more...for example!" Petrov demonstrated another kick. This time the arc of the football in the air was more obvious, and it also bypassed the wall props and flew into the goal.

In this way, Petrov explained while demonstrating, and taught Rongguang the most basic skills of kicking free kicks.

In fact, there is nothing to talk about the skills of playing football. Rong Guang has already mastered the thing of kicking the curve ball. Some of his shots in the game are curve ball shots.

He just needs to practice repeatedly.

After half an hour of learning from Petrov, Rong Guang can already kick free kicks in a decent way.

But he still needs to practice more.

"There's actually no trick to free kicks, just practice repeatedly until you remember this action in your heart." Petrov said and made a kicking action, kicking the football towards the goal. "Kick repeatedly, practice repeatedly, and your body will remember this action."

What Rongguang is best at is repetition training, so when he heard that the way of free kick training is to repeat and repeat, he seemed very happy-this is easy to handle!

At first, he thought that there would be some special skills that were difficult to learn.

Now it seems that it is as simple as learning to shoot.

"Oh, yes, there are actually some tricks... In training, if you don't have a human wall as a reference, then you can kick the football to the four corners of the goal. These four corners are the most difficult places for the goalkeeper to save. As long as you can kick the football to these four corners and hit it within the range of the goal frame, the scoring rate can be said to be [-]%! Those four corners are theoretically dead ends!"

Hearing Petrov's words, Rong Guang's eyes lit up. He turned his head to look at the goal, and his eyes moved back and forth on the four corners of the goal.

A theoretical dead end...

Rong Guang stared at it, as if he wanted to firmly remember the positional relationship of the four corners in his mind.

After returning home, Rong Guang was concerned about the construction progress of her villa, and Deborah was still a little strange: "I remember you said that such a big villa is not good for three people to live in..."

Rong Guang had indeed said so.

Although it was given to him by Mansur with kindness, Rong Guang always felt that this villa was too exaggerated.

How could so many rooms be used by oneself?

So he didn't care much about the villa that made countless people drool.

He thought it would be good to be neighbors with Sun Hai just like this. With Sun Hai's help in the past few months, he and Deborah have integrated into life in Manchester very smoothly. Sun Hai will tell him which places are convenient for shopping, which restaurants have good taste and good environment, and there are many details.

The two families often have dinner together.

Such a glorious life feels good.

"Yes, but the houses here... don't have a football field." Rong Guang said.

"What are you going to practice again?" Deborah knew what Rong Guang was going to do as soon as she heard Rong Guang talk about the football field.

"I learned free kicks from Petrov today," Rong Guang said. "He said the trick to practice free-kicks is to practice them over and over until the body memorizes them. So I need a field where I can practice free-kicks."

"Oh, I'll go tomorrow to see the progress of the project. It is said that it is under renovation and it is almost finished." Deborah said.

"Okay, let's move."

In order to improve himself, Rong Guang really didn't want to delay even a minute.
