Grassroots Glory

When Zhou Tiancheng stepped onto the pitch, his mind was full of thoughts on how to play well in the first league game of the first team. He didn't know his appearance at all, which caused a small commotion in the media audience.

Several Football News reporters who came all the way from China reminded each other: Go! Go! He is the Zhou Tiancheng who suddenly appeared? Look at his body, it's not bad!

These reporters specialize in football reports, so they are naturally professionals. Although they don't have close contact, they can tell at a glance that Zhou Tiancheng's height and body shape are not at a disadvantage compared to local German players!

With this important prerequisite, their expectations were increased by two points. There is so much time in this game, there are plenty of opportunities, maybe we can really play some highlights!

But more people are completely confused about Zhou Tiancheng who made his debut for the first time. Even the German media who have done a lot of work only have a general impression that this is a player who was promoted from the youth team this season. Tian Cheng knew almost nothing about other situations.

On the contrary, Marcel Leif, who explained the youth league finals, suddenly thought of Zhou Tiancheng, and he was surprised: Aha! This is a historic moment for Schalke 04, the first Asian player to represent the first team From now on everyone needs to know him, his name is Zhou Tiancheng, he is from China... yes, you heard me right, China! Last season he was a Schalke U19 player, leading Schalke to win the youth league double, and Indirectly assisting teammates in the national finals created the fastest scoring record in the history of the German Youth League!

Marcel Leif didn't say a word to praise Zhou Tiancheng deliberately, but the guiding role was obvious, especially when several titles were thrown out, it naturally increased the expectations of the audience. Originally, some fans saw that a Chinese player had been replaced, and they slandered Slomka's incompetence in using troops, but now they have temporarily suppressed their doubts.

After all, it sounds like he performed well in the youth team, so there should be some differences.

Slomka's original intention was to make a counter-substitution, but after Zhou Tiancheng came on the field, the division of labor in the midfield has undergone some changes. Schalke's three midfielders are in a zigzag position, Zhou Tiancheng's position is closer to the striker, Christa Ji Odd and Gustavo? Varela is the position retreated mainly defensively.

This really doesn't look like the first-team rookie's treatment. It's completely intended to highlight Zhou Tiancheng, but Schalke has always been very united. Everyone knows Zhou Tiancheng's ability, so Kristajic and Ba Leila didn't mind.

What's more beneficial to Zhou Tiancheng is that when he plays, his team takes the initiative, so that he can find the rhythm of the game faster. On the contrary, if the opponent forms a suppression, he may be dragged into the opponent's rhythm soon after playing, which is not conducive to his performance on the court.

The Hannover players were worried that they could not find a breakthrough in the counterattack. Seeing Zhou Tiancheng's face, he immediately regarded him as a key target. As soon as Zhou Tiancheng got the ball, the nearest full-backs and midfielders approached him at the same time. Midfield interception is an excellent place to switch from defense to offense.

The opponent is coming aggressively, Zhou Tiancheng's first priority is to ensure the possession of the ball, so he chooses to quickly hit Kristajic who is in place to ensure the continuation of the overall offensive, but after this action, he has no time to evade the opponent Hitting from behind.

Zhou Tiancheng staggered and fell directly on the lawn. He can also be regarded as seeing the intensity of the Bundesliga field. It is really not at the same level as the youth field. In the youth team, it is almost impossible for anyone to knock him down.

However, such an impact is unlikely to cause any physical harm to him. Zhou Tiancheng saw that the referee didn't blow the whistle, and his team's offense was still going on, without a moment's hesitation, he immediately got up and went on the offensive.

There was just a round of applause from the fans at the scene, and such dedication to the game is worthy of encouragement. However, in the next second, cheers suddenly resounded throughout the stadium. Schalke 04's quick counterattack has reached the front of Hannover's right-sided penalty area!

The speed of offensive and defensive transitions is often an important criterion for measuring the strength of a team.

From here, we can see the strength gap between the two teams.

Three-on-three in the frontcourt, the left forward Asamoah took advantage of his explosive power and went straight into the penalty area from the outside, but the angle was close to zero, so he could only pass to the center near the goalkeeper. The chances are not good at this time. When the number of players is equal, both Kuranyi and Lowenkland are under the strict supervision of the opponent's central defender.

Just when everyone thought this opportunity was about to be missed and sighed, Zhou Tiancheng's tall figure suddenly rushed to the core area, adding more variables to the attack.

Many fans have begun to stand up and pay attention to Zhou Tiancheng's next handling, but it is not easy for Zhou Tiancheng to complete the shot easily. The Hannover central defender keenly saw his forward drive and decisively chose to give up Kuranyi. At the same time, he quickly slid his foot to block Zhou Tiancheng's shot.

Such a head-on collision tested Zhou Tiancheng's adaptability.

But Zhou Tiancheng was not in a hurry at all. Seeing that the opponent was coming with a sliding shovel, he first raised the ball to the (chest) position, and the position of the ball was slightly forward. It was the connection action that came down that made everyone dumbfounded.

Without the slightest pause, after Zhou Tiancheng dodged the opponent's defender, relying on his excellent waist and abdomen strength, his 1.9-meter-long body jumped into the air directly, and slammed the ball in the air with an extremely chic tail wagging movement, and the ball bounced The inside of the center left post flies into the net.

Going over the ball and volleying to score goals, when all these are combined on a 1.9-meter midfielder, can you believe it?

Zhou Tiancheng's operations are simply dazzling!

Facing the loss of his teammates, the Hannover goalkeeper shook his head helplessly. He was really helpless with this ball.

At this moment, there were no doubts anymore. All the cheers on the scene were for Zhou Tiancheng. He ran to the center of the field, put his hands in his ears as if listening, and accepted all the cheers. Then he was surrounded by swarming teammates.

Marcel Leif erupted excitedly: It is definitely a manifestation of strength! Zhou Tiancheng from China, he is the hero of Schalke's first game of the new season! This goal is enough to make him impress all Shakhtar fans !

Even more excited were the reporters of the interview team of Football News. They felt that they were very lucky to witness the wonderful performances of Chinese players on the spot. The small video camera in his hand didn't stop working for a moment.

The person in charge of the interview team was excited and did not forget the business. He hurriedly asked: Have you recorded it? This is big news, and it will definitely be explosive when it is sent back. It seems that everyone will have to work hard. Contact him for an exclusive interview as soon as possible. We Get all the first-hand information about him!
