Chapter 319 Enhanced Shooting Training

The next day, we are about to start preparing for the next game.In the next stop, our opponent will be the Portuguese team. They have great stars such as Figo, Rui Costa, Pinto, etc. In terms of lineup alone, they are even stronger than the European Cup champion Denmark.Of course, compared with our Croatian lineup, Portugal's lineup is still lacking in stars. Among other things, in terms of overall worth, our Croatian team will beat Portugal.

But compared with Portugal, the biggest gap between our Croatian team is the gap in mental will.Once in the 1966 World Cup, when they were behind 0:3, the Panther Eusebio led the Portuguese to a 5:3 comeback against the North Korean team.That was the greatest comeback in the history of the World Cup. From this game, we also saw the tenacity of the Portuguese!

The opponent of Portugal can be called the strongest opponent in our group.Although the Danish team is the champion of the last European Cup, it is not a traditional team after all, and there are not many stars in the team. Except for Laudrup and Laudrup, Schmeichel is the only one left.But Portugal is different-the number of stars in the Portuguese team is very large, and the quality is also very outstanding. Goalkeeper Baia, midfielders Rui Costa and Luis Figo, and forward Nuno Gomez, All very famous players.Especially Luis Figo and Rui Costa are well-known midfield conductors in the whole of Europe.Portugal's midfield is even stronger than that of our Croatian team. Although the defense is slightly weaker, under the solid guard of the goalkeeper Baia, the Portuguese team only conceded one goal in the first two games, winning 1 and winning 1. With a flat record, they are temporarily ranked second in the standings.

Portugal, like us, belongs to the Latin school of Europe.Since their midfield is stronger than ours, there is no need for us to compete with them in the midfield. Our tactic is to use the strength of our forward line to shoot more.Our double striker, the combination of me and Boksic, is more threatening than the combination of Nuno Gomez and Pinto.In terms of goals alone, we have scored more goals than them - I have scored three goals so far, and Boksic has scored two goals.Although Baia is strong, if we can break through to the opponent's back line and shoot frequently, Baia will never be able to defend if we shoot more times.

What's more, Baier's ability is still insufficient compared with Schmeichel of the Danish team.Against Schmeichel, we both scored three goals, so against Baia, wouldn't we have an advantage?
Our coach said that since we chose a simple and rude method to deal with the Portuguese team, then we must practice our shooting well and reduce the burden on the midfield by improving the efficiency of shooting.The midfield players only need to pass the ball to the striker faster. The key is to see the striker's ability to seize opportunities.

If you want to improve your shooting ability, you need further training.As for where to train, we first thought of the gravity training room——

So under the organization of the coach, we entered the gravity training room for training.It should be said that it is relatively easy to practice shooting in the gravity training room, so the coach also specially increased our training time to 10 minutes.But this time, the people who entered the gravity training room for training were not all forwards, but also midfielders, even defenders and goalkeepers.Because shooting training is not only static shooting training, but also dynamic shooting training. In dynamic shooting training, everyone needs to face the defender's defense on the field to shoot.So I also need some defenders to play the role of defense.However, Gianni did not participate in this training, because his body still needs a few days to recover, and it is hard to say whether he can catch up with the battle with Portugal. Don’t let Gianni do such cruel training as the gravity training room. Such wounded people came to participate.

At the beginning, the static shooting training was carried out. This kind of training mainly practiced our foot strength. Since we had already done leapfrog training before, our foot strength has been considerably increased. Therefore, in the static shooting training, the coach Looking forward to everyone's performance.

In addition, the coach also hopes that in the static shooting training, some players can comprehend some shooting nirvana.After all, in the usual shooting, many people will only choose the foot volley.Other shots, either with the arch of the foot or with the tip of the toe, are often incompatible with both strength and accuracy.If anyone can kick a super powerful shot, or someone can kick a shot that is both powerful and accurate, and a shot that has both strength and arc, as their respective nirvana, then It can be used in the game, and made great contributions to the reversal of the Croatian team at the critical moment.

In the game against the Danish team, I realized a new kind of shot, which is my cosmic shot.This cosmic shot, although no one has seen its trajectory, but how powerful it is, even I am not sure...

Back then, my cosmic shot not only pierced the Danish team's net, but also dented the billboard behind it.The power of this shot can be imagined.However, this shot of mine could not be shot just by training, it was discovered through my epiphany, through my knowledge and memories of the past, and in short, I discovered that shot... , not only the beginning, but also the end. Only after thinking through all the philosophies of life can one understand the true meaning of this shot.Today, the coach puts all the players in the gravity training room and asks them to understand the true meaning of shooting, which seems to me to be putting the cart before the horse.

However, practice is better than no practice. What if they really learned something through continuous practice?

Only one person is needed, and then comprehend a kind of shooting, for me, it is a great relaxation.

After all, it takes a lot of physical strength to kick a cosmic shot. I think it may be the same for other shots, especially the shots in the gravity training room, which should be much more difficult.

However, this time, to my great surprise, someone actually practiced a shooting technique——

That person is Prosinecki, and the shot he practiced is called...

Boomerang shot!
