Chapter 18 My Goal
Chapter 18 My Goals
Li Qingshan's goal once again made the fans of FC United excited.But this time they were at the other end of the goal, and Li Qingshan didn't see a sign that Elma was holding up specially with the words "Li, come on" written crookedly in Chinese.

This is his first fan in the UK.

Ma Jinsen couldn't believe his eyes after seeing Li Qingshan's earth-shattering long shot. He was so shocked that he put his hands on his head, and the assistant coach behind him roared and rushed to hug him.

Ma Jinson couldn't believe it and asked: "Roy, this kid had problems stopping the ball a month ago, right?"

"At that time, he could only head the ball." Roy didn't dare to imagine.

"It took only one month to achieve this point, and I believe he was fooled." Marginson laughed.

After Li Qingshan's goal, the game has come to No.803 minutes, and there is not much time left for the Lille team.

In the next few minutes, the Lille team went all out to attack. There was a panic in front of FC United, but FC United withstood the pressure, especially after Li Qingshan returned to the penalty area to defend the opponent's long pass. It is difficult for the team to take advantage of the high-altitude ball.British teams are not good at attacking on the ground, especially low-level league teams.Before Professor Wenger took charge of Arsenal, even the Premier League teams rarely had teams that relied on short passes on the ground to cooperate with their offense.The English prefer a direct, open-and-close style of play.

The same is true for the Lille team. The long pass is their main routine. However, after this trick is restricted, they don't have many options.

A few minutes of game time passed quickly, and there were 3 minutes of stoppage time. After 3 minutes, the Lille team was still attacking with the ball.The referee gave the home team a chance to attack in the last round.

However, the FC United fans behind the goal were not happy and booed the referee.

However, the Lille team did not make good use of this offensive opportunity. The cross passed into the penalty area and was pushed out by Li Qingshan. On the outside of the penalty area, a midfielder of the Lille team hurriedly took a long shot and hit the plane. .Then the referee blew the whistle to end the game.

FC United won the first warm-up match of the new season.Winning against a professional team makes the whole team very happy.

At the Newton Heath Bar in the evening, FC United players and fans returning from the away game are toasting to celebrate.Players and fans hooked each other up and toasted.This scene can not be seen in the Premier League.

Amateur leagues are like this. The distance between players and fans is very small. Maybe the players who play on the field are friends, colleagues, relatives, and neighbors of the fans off the field.After the team wins, players and fans go to the bar to drink and celebrate. This scene is very normal in the amateur league.

This is also what football looked like at the beginning. The world's number one sport is originally a civilian sport, a sport that belongs to the working class.Many of the early giants in England were founded by workers. Manchester United, for example, was founded by a group of workers from Newton Heath.The nicknames of some teams can also be seen at the beginning of their founding. For example, West Ham United is nicknamed "The Hammer Gang". This is because the players who founded the team were a group of steel workers.People in the past may not have imagined that, driven by commercialization, today's football stars have an annual salary of tens of millions and can enjoy luxury cars and luxury houses, just like movie stars.

The most popular here is of course Li Qingshan, who scored twice in this game, and fans of FC United rushed to take photos with him.So much so that Adam Jones said a little jealously: "This kid feels like he has become the number one star when he first arrived..."

"You could be a star if you scored twice," Dean Stott said, patting him on the head.

"I'm a central defender, Dean," Adam Jones said indignantly and slightly aggrieved.

On the football field, the most dazzling person is of course the one who scores the goals. Otherwise, why do strikers always get more Ballon d'Ors?

With great difficulty, Li Qingshan satisfied the various demands of the fans one by one.This is a brand new experience for him, and being sought after by fans like a star makes the 19-year-old boy feel a little bit flustered.

FC United players were sitting around a circular bar, Li Qingshan saw an empty seat next to Nick, and walked over.

"Guys, our hero today is here," goalkeeper James whistled and laughed.

"How's it feel to be a star, Lee?"

"Finally it's not me who was abused." Adam Jones still had a lot of resentment.

Li Qingshan sat in and listened to the ridicule of his teammates with a smile on his face.

The bar in the center of the bar handed him a glass of fresh beer with white bubbles, and Li Qingshan took it.He found that everyone else drank this kind of beer, but Nick next to him drank a glass of bright yellow juice.

"Don't you want some beer, Nick." Li Qingshan asked a little strangely.

Nick nodded, just about to say something.Next to him, David Butch said: "It's not a good thing for a professional player to be exposed to alcohol, Lee."

Li Qingshan understands that for Nick, he is now only, as long as he performs well in the team, with his speed and physical condition, sooner or later a professional team will be willing to sign him.

And drinking alcoholic beverages is not a good thing for athletes.Generally, football players have three taboos: smoking, drinking, and carbonated drinks.Excessive drinking will have a certain impact on the kidneys, reducing the reabsorption of calcium and other substances by the kidneys.Drinking alcohol interferes with the absorption of calcium and leads to loss of calcium in urine. For high-intensity sports such as football, calcium loss increases the risk of fractures.Alcohol also reduces an athlete's strength, speed, muscular endurance, and cardiovascular endurance.

Therefore, many teams prohibit players from drinking alcohol during the season.It is said that after Arsenal coach Wenger took over Arsenal, he gave the Arsenal team a ban on alcohol.

"Hey, Li, don't you want to play professional football? With your strength, there will be professional teams looking at you." Butch then asked.

This question made Li Qingshan put down the wine glass he picked up just now.This is the second time he has been asked this question since he came to the UK.

Li Qingshan thought for a while: "Do you think I have the strength to play professional football? Butch."

David Butch shrugged: "Of course, your physical fitness and header ability are enough to support you to enter the professional arena."

"I'm currently working as a part-time physical education teacher in an elementary school, and I can coach any elementary school team. But this is not the life I want. I started out as a professional player." David Butch talked about sex after drinking some wine , took the initiative to talk about his past.The surrounding teammates suddenly became interested.Everyone has a gossip heart.

"Hey, do you know?" Seeing everyone's interest, Butch became proud, and he said with a mysterious smile.

"I used to be a player in the Chelsea youth team!"

Seeing everyone's surprised faces, Butch was very proud, and his vanity was very satisfied.

"Today isn't April Fool's Day, Butch"

Central defender Jerome Wright is obviously not very detailed about himself, butch is anxious: "Why did I lie to you?"

Jerome thought about it for a while and felt that the opponent had no motive to deceive people, and Butch's skills and awareness were indeed outstanding in the team. If he had not received high-level training, it would be impossible to have such a performance. "Okay, sorry David, you go ahead"

Butch snorted, and then continued: "So, I can see, Li, you are better than many players in the Chelsea youth team before, and now most of them play in the professional league. It's a pity..." Speaking of this, he Suddenly stopped.

"What a pity?" Li Qingshan asked.

"Uh..." Butch hesitated for a moment, and then said: "At that time, I was able to enter the Chelsea reserve team, but I was not a good person at that time... Um... because of the fight, I beat myself Teammates, they were kicked out."

Everyone's mouths are opened wide, and their eyes are also bigger.This smiling Butch, who has a good relationship with everyone in the team, is a violent person...
"Can't you see it?" Butch was proud again, "I'm a nice guy now."

"But what I said is true, Li, you have the ability to play professional football." Butch didn't talk much about his past, and then brought the topic back.

Li Qingshan did not answer this sentence.Speaking of professional football, the first thing that comes to mind is the "top league", and nothing else is considered at all.Therefore, Li Qingshan will feel that he is not qualified to play in the professional league.Being able to play in FC United and Manchester for a few years, and still have money to get, has already made him satisfied.However, when he came to England, he realized that "professional football" is not equal to the Premier League. In fact, most professional players play in some second-tier leagues and third-tier leagues. The professional football system is like a pyramid. The top of the pyramid In the top leagues such as the Premier League and the Bundesliga, the bottom of the pyramid is where most players live.

"Nick, what about you, what is your goal?" Li Qingshan asked.

Nick shook his head: "I don't know. I have only played football since I was a child. If I can't get a contract from a professional team, I don't know what job to look for. So I can only try my best in the end. I want to play professional football." At this point, Nick shook his cup.

"Don't worry, your speed is so fast, there will be teams that need you, Nick!" Li Qingshan said, patting Nick on the shoulder.

"What about you, Lee, do you want to play professional football?"

"I..." Li Qingshan opened his mouth for a long time, but he didn't say the rest.

Li Qingshan recalled his time in the football school, wasn't he just working hard towards the goal of professional football?

Li Qingshan thought that he had not touched football for three years, and the door of professional football had been closed to him forever. Unexpectedly, in England, thousands of miles away from his hometown, in this foreign country, someone knocked on this door again .

And I also have a football training camp that technology can't understand at all to help me.Although Li Qingshan still feels that the thing in his body is like a dream, it has indeed helped him improve a lot during this period of time, especially in stopping the ball and long-range shooting. He has been struggling recently. Train this.

I have the advantages of body and header, and this thing helps me make up for my technical shortcomings. Maybe... Is it really possible for me to play professional football?

In Li Qingshan's heart, a seed that had been dusty for three years seemed to have cracked a little bit.

He handed the wine glass in front of him to the bartender in the center of the bar, and said, "Sir, please help me change to a glass of juice."
