Champion’s Heart

After Zhou Yi entered the system, he realized that it was not Chu Ling and the training ground that attracted his attention first, but... a cutscene!

In the animation, he flew from China to Barcelona, ​​Europe by plane, which was the same as his experience in reality, and then flashed back to various street scenes of Barcelona.

Finally, the map of continental Europe reappeared, on which the cities of Barcelona, ​​Madrid, Munich, Dortmund, London, Liverpool, Manchester, Milan were lit up one after another.

These will be the cities where the teams they are going to play are located.

Afterwards, these illuminated cities were like stars on the dark blue map of Europe, radiating light, and the light became more and more intense, and finally connected together, turning the entire space into white.

The light was a bit dazzling, and Zhou Yi couldn't help turning his head sideways, squinting his eyes, and raised his hand to cover his eyes.

After about two seconds, the white light disappeared, Zhou Yi found himself in the familiar training ground again, and Chu Ling was standing in front of him.

What's going on? Zhou Yi asked.

A new map has been opened. Chu Ling replied. The map of Europe is opened. At the same time, a new mission line has started.

New mission line?

What are you doing in Europe?

Uh, challenge the youth training camps of those giants...

That's right, there is also this task in the system, you can now compete here, and compete with the opponent you are going to challenge this time. Chu Ling introduced.

These words lifted Zhou Yi's spirit - he has been using the system for more than a month, but it has always been training, in addition to training or training, it seems that this is just a training system.

But now he can still compete here!

Even if training can improve strength, it is boring after all. Zhou Yi still prefers competitions.

Besides, Chu Ling also said that she can also improve her abilities in the competition.

And in some specific individual abilities, the improvement through competition may be greater than the improvement through training.

That's why in the football world, there is such a saying as training with games.

It is true that competition can replace training to some extent. Moreover, the exercise improvement obtained in the real competition is more than that in training. Such an improvement is more meaningful.

Otherwise, what's the point in training if you can go through the triangle like Messi and Ronaldinho?

You can turn around in Marseille alone to pick up fried meatballs, then pick up Cruyff's turn, pick up the oxtail, and finally come up with a pendulum and send the football into the empty goal. What's the point?

You can use any part of your body to bounce the ball a thousand times in a row in training, and you may not be able to protect the ball for even a second under the heavy equipment of the opposing player in an actual game.

Therefore, no matter how well you train, if you can't test the training results in the competition, the training is meaningless.

So Zhou Yi couldn't wait to enter the competition to challenge the first opponent of this European Tournament, the Barcelona youth team under the age of 17!

After a game, Zhou Yi stared at the dazzling 0:17 on the scoreboard, dumbfounded.

The gap...is that big?

This score can only represent the performance gap between your two teams in this game, not the real gap between the two teams. But even if the real gap is not so exaggerated, it is about the same. Chu Ling said.

Okay, then come again!

Come again? With this team? Chu Ling was a little surprised.

That's right. Zhou Yi nodded. come on.

Uh, only one game can be played in a day's system time. Chu Ling said.

What kind of rule is this? Zhou Yi was shocked.

This is also to strive for reality, and you can't stand one high-intensity game a day in reality.

So in the system, you can only play one game a day, not more than this frequency.

Then what should I do if I surpass it? Zhou Yi was curious.

Just like the CPU continues to overload and then burns out, your brain will also be burned out, and you will become a vegetable, and you will never wake up from your sleep. Chu Ling said.

Zhou Yi shivered: So scary? Let's forget it... One game a day. But I've just started this day. What do I do at other times?

Of course it's training. Don't you train except for competitions?

Okay, practice and practice! Even though he was unwilling to lose to the youth team of La Masia, Zhou Yi could only choose to practice now. Because this is a pure football virtual system, apart from training and competition, there is nothing else.

At the same time, Zhou Yi also hopes to make some progress in the second day game through the improvement of training, at least he must be able to score goals, right?

※※※

When Zhou Yi woke up from his sleep, it was already the real morning of the next day.

It was still daylight outside the hotel, but Zhou Yi couldn't sleep anymore. I slept too much yesterday, and now my mind is very clear.

Zhou Yi didn't get up, but lay on the bed recalling the games in the virtual system.

In the evening, he spent eight days in the FIFAOL system. During these eight days, one game against the La Masia Youth B team was a compulsory subject. In these eight games, he and his virtual teammates had no wins. Total defeat! And not even a goal.

The number of goals conceded ranged from a dozen to eight or nine.

This gap is simply hopeless.

Zhou Yi had no concept before. He thought that if we challenged Barcelona’s youth team, we would definitely lose, but at least we wouldn’t lose too much, and we would score goals, at least one goal. He also imagined that the goal was scored by himself.

But the actual situation is...he didn't score a goal, he was completely suppressed in the game, and he couldn't show his abilities at all.

Not only is there a big gap between teams and others, but there is also a big gap between individual players.

Zhou Yi had seen the statistics of his teammates a long time ago, and knew that in this team, He Ying was the strongest with the highest stats. But even He Ying didn't have the upper hand in the match against La Masia's youth team.

Not to mention the performance of others.

By the way, Zhou Yi is indeed worthy of being the weakest member of the team, and his stats are also the lowest in the team...

After a night of rest, the teenagers from China officially started training for the battle. During training, three camera teams followed them, filming and recording their training.

In addition to the training on the football field, the young players also have to do some entertainment games off the field, complete some tasks, and according to the rules, complete some key tasks and even get a chance to play.

This seems a little child's play-how can it be possible to get the opportunity to play because whoever does the game well? Shouldn't it be to see who performs well in the usual training to get the chance to play?

But no way, who made this a reality TV show? Gotta make do with entertainment, right?

If it's done too professionally, and the majority of TV viewers don't like to watch it, then the ratings will be miserable. The ratings are terrible, maybe the show was cut in half before it finished broadcasting?

After all, this program hopes to attract viewers who are not very interested in football. Fans alone will not do.

So something of an entertaining nature had to be added.

Therefore, when they were at the airport, those professional football reporters dismissed the program, thinking that they had desecrated football, which made sense.

How can such a playful approach guarantee the team's combat effectiveness?

At that time, I am afraid that every game will be a disgrace to Chinese football...

However, Hao Dong and the program team obviously also considered this issue. How to increase the entertainment without affecting the strength of the team?

It's very simple. Write the script in advance and establish rules to ensure that the players who are the main players of the team will not lose in the process of playing the game. And not all the main players have to fight for the starting position by playing games. There are only two starting spots in a game through playing games, so if there is any accident, it will be considered a rotation... Of course it is like this Accidents are best avoided.

With the strength of this team, even if they try their best, it will be very difficult for them to beat the rich youth team. How can they be qualified for rotation?

The Chinese Youth Expeditionary Army will fight in Europe for two months, and will play against eleven teams twelve times, including two matches against Barcelona's youth team - the first match and the second match.

After all, in today's football, La Masia's youth training is the strongest, and has cultivated many world-class superstars, such as Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, Puyol, and Guardio. La... These people are all from La Masia.

Since Cruyff, a Dutchman, came to Barcelona to coach and established an important position in the La Masia youth academy, this place has continuously produced excellent players.

So the city of Barcelona is both the starting point and the ending point.

Two months, twelve games, one game every five days on average.

Four days passed quickly.

Regardless of whether the team is ready or not, the Chinese Junior Expeditionary Forces are about to usher in their first game.

I thought it was part of a variety show, so this game will not be broadcast live.

And for the entire city of Barcelona, ​​a visiting Chinese team did not attract much attention. Many Barcelona fans don't even know that there is such a game in their La Masia youth academy.

Of course, this game is not intended to be closed to the outside world. In fact, this game is open, and anyone can watch it. It's just that there is no publicity, so many people don't know that there is such a game.

But no matter how you don't know, if you happen to be watching the training of the youth team, you can still watch the game.

It's just that they may be a little strange-how can Barcelona's youth team play with a group of Asian children?
