Captain Football System

Chapter 40 Sparring
A few minutes later, the two ended the competition, and there was an impressive "11:3" on the scoreboard next to them.
Xi Beier looked at Shen Peng sincerely at this moment: "You will teach me how to play table tennis from now on!"

Shen Peng didn't expect this to happen either. Could it be that the so-called strongest table tennis player in this club has this kind of strength?
But to teach her, Shen Peng thought he could swing the racket without that ability, and he couldn't even memorize the rules of table tennis.

"If you want to learn, you might as well watch videos online. I don't know much myself, but I can't teach you." Shen Peng said, he remembered watching many table tennis videos on the Internet, which should be helpful to Xi Beier.

"What can you learn from watching the video, if you don't have anyone to practice with you, it's useless to watch it. Just like your football, if you want to practice defense, you watch the video a hundred times on the Internet. If no one accompany you to practice, you will not learn it either."

Shen Peng didn't expect this girl to be so eloquent, but thinking about it, this is indeed the truth. In China, because there are many table tennis players, the overall strength is good, but in Europe, because most people like football, there are fewer people playing table tennis, so the overall strength will be lower.

"How about this, you study online first, and if I have time, I'll practice with you later." Shen Peng said, now it's the only way to deal with it first.

"Okay, then don't forget, if you don't come for a week, I will find you."

"Uh...I'll remember..." Shen Peng felt that he was in trouble, and he should not have agreed to her damn request if he knew earlier.

"As a reward, I will go to the stadium to cheer for you in the next game! You know, I am not a fan of anyone else, since you are so nice, I will be your fan!" Sibel patted her chest like an airport and promised.

So I still earned it?
Shen Peng really wanted to ask this question, but finally held back, "Alright then, but I don't know if I can play yet."

"Even if you are on the bench, I will cheer for you!"

"..." Combined with Xi Beier's character, Shen Peng made up the image of the "big sister" in the young football player. If she was sitting on the bench and she cheered for herself...

Shen Peng couldn't help shivering.

The next game is on January 1, also a friendly match, against Świnoujście at home, this is a little-known small team from the place of the same name in Poland, and it is not too much to say that it is a big team.

That's why Xi Beier said to go to the stadium to watch the game. If it was an away game, Shen Peng was sure that she would not say such a thing.

When he returned to the dormitory, he habitually turned on his cell phone—for the past few days, Zhu Xian would chat with him every day, but due to the time difference, Zhu Xian was still sleeping at this time and would not wake up in two hours, so the messages he saw every day were all sent by Zhu Xian before going to bed, that is, at four or five o'clock in the afternoon.

"How was today's game?"

"Did you play?"

"Did you score a goal?"

"After all, it is the first game to join the team. If you can play, you should work hard and try to get the main position as soon as possible."

……

Shen Peng read them one by one, and then went back one by one in order. Since he couldn't bring his mobile phone for training during the day, he could only communicate with Zhu Xian in this way.

"Today I just went up to play for 10 minutes at the last moment, but from the eyes of others, the performance should not be satisfactory."

"Someone came to me at night and asked me to teach her table tennis. It's strange to say that the best table tennis players in this club are not my opponents."

……

After returning home, he went to wash up, and then went to bed...

On the second day, when training with the team, he paid attention to his teammates' running positions when passing and receiving the ball and so on.

He found that when teammates ran before receiving the ball, they would always pay attention to the position of others, so that after they received the ball, even if the opponent immediately pressed, they could pass the ball immediately and safely.

Before Shen Peng received the ball, he didn't pay attention to it at all, he just stared at the ball, which led to his embarrassment in the face of the press.

For these, Shen Peng secretly remembered...

The time soon came to January 1th, and the team from Poland arrived as scheduled, and started a 20-minute battle at the Ruhr Stadium, home of the Bochum club.

In the first half, although Bochum had an overall advantage on the scene, they still couldn't score a goal.

The game is like this, sometimes it is very strange, it is obvious that you are facing an opponent whose strength is not as good as your own, but for some reason, you just can't win.

During the intermission, the head coach severely criticized them. Combined with the last [-]-[-] loss to Cologne, the head coach thought that they were lazy after a holiday, even if their results before the holiday were not very good.

In the second half, the situation didn't change much. Although Bochum kept attacking around Świnoujście, they just couldn't score.

Still in No. 80 minutes, the head coach replaced Shen Peng.

He doesn't have much requirements for the game now, mainly to record the team's current problems from this game, so as not to be caught off guard after the official start of the league.

After Shen Peng came on the field, he began to play in the midfield - the head coach still let Shen Peng play in the midfield, which is the most suitable for Shen Peng's style here.

When facing Swinoujscie, Shen Peng did not have the pressure of the previous trial training and the last time he faced Cologne, but even so, he still tried to get used to the rhythm of the Bundesliga.

In the No.804 minute, a striker from Bochum took a shot and hit the goal. The ball fell into the hands of the Świnoujście goalkeeper. After receiving the ball, he immediately threw it forward, and the ball fell to the feet of a striker.

The defenders of the Bochum team immediately panicked and hurried to catch up with the defense, but the striker and his teammate simply hit the wall, and they had already passed several defenders. At this time, there was only Bochum's goalkeeper, Lu Ze, in front of him!

Neuluerer stood up from the coaching bench. Even if it is a friendly match, if he loses to a weak team like Swinoujscie at home, coupled with his record before the winter break, he may not be far from getting out of class!
But after seeing a faster blue figure, he felt a little relieved.

Just as the striker of Swinoujscie sprinted with the ball, suddenly a blue light flashed from the corner of his eye, it was Shen Peng who was chasing back all the way!
Although Shen Peng is now a midfielder, Songshan already has a tackle skill. After the system removed this skill, as compensation, his tackle attribute was strengthened, so now Shen Peng's tackle is very strong.

Because this place is still outside the restricted area, after Shen Peng caught up with that person, he fell to the ground and shoveled without saying a word!

With a clear sound, Shen Peng's feet had shoveled the football away, and the striker was thrown to the ground by inertia. He sat on the ground and immediately raised his hands to signal Shen Peng to foul.

However, the referee ignored his reaction and signaled the game to continue, because Shen Peng's ball was clean and neat, and it didn't touch him for half a point. It was a good ball!
The head coach of Świnoujście next to him thought he had a chance, but after seeing Shen Peng's kick, he shook his head dejectedly. The Bundesliga second team is really not something they can beat.
