Football: I am a goalkeeper, averaging 1 goal per game

Jessie had nothing on his face as he faced a pressing from David's Johnson.

He fixed his eyes on Xu Jin standing in front of the door.

Why did Jesse, who had clearly rejected many football agents, suddenly agree to Nottingham Forest's invitation.

The reason is actually very simple.

Just two.

One is that he is from Nottingham himself, and the Forest Club is very close to his home.

The second is Xu Jin.

After he watched a video of Xu Jin's game.

He took an immediate interest in the Middlesbrough U18s goalkeeper.

Because in Jie Xi's opinion, this Xu Jin is too interesting.

As a goalkeeper, he has the same running speed and dribbling ability as himself.

Playing on the field field, in fact, there are not many concerns and tactics.

As long as you don't foul and hurt people, you can basically play as you want.

Jiexi, that is, the football ability developed in such an environment.

He can not only shoot with the ball, but also defend in the backcourt.

Basically, except that he has never played as a goalkeeper, he has top-notch abilities in any position on the pitch.

Why didn't you kick the goalkeeper?

Because in the field, sometimes the goal temporarily built with water bottles is only one meter wide.

If the number is not enough, he and his field partners will choose to play without a goalkeeper.

Even sometimes, they will set some strange rules for the game.

For example, shooting from the ground does not count.

Shots with your dominant foot do not count.

Therefore, before seeing Xu Jin's game.

He has no interest in becoming a professional player and playing traditional football!

90 minutes of game time, competing with a group of people for a football, is too boring!

However, after seeing Middlesbrough's u18 youth team make a Xu Jin.

He immediately came up with a plan to confront him head-on.

As soon as the idea came out, he immediately put it into practice.

He ran directly to Nottingham Forest Club and asked to participate in a trial.

Forest coach Steve Kubo, as a coach who attaches great importance to the training of young players, has naturally heard of Jesse's name.

When Kubo saw him, he was still very surprised, and asked why Jiexi suddenly figured out that he was going to come to the forest for trial training?

Jiexi's answer was simple: "Because I want to compete with that Xu Jin. Besides, playing football in the forest, I can also play wild football with my friends every night!"

Although Jie Xi has not received orthodox football training.

But because of his experience in playing wild football under various rules since he was a child, he passed the trial training in the forest very easily.

Physical strength, top!

Because he and his partners often play a game called "marathon".

Unless one side can lead by three goals, otherwise, the game will never end!

In the longest game, they played for 4 hours.

Dribble, top notch!

Because sometimes when his partners are not here, he will choose to practice running with the ball alone on the concrete floor.

The purpose is to show off in front of your partners.

Shoot, top!

Because of those rules that sound weird in professional football clubs.

Shooting off the ground doesn't count, and shooting within 20 meters doesn't count, you have to hit a Yakult bottle to count...

Waiting for these rules, practiced Jiexi's super shooting ability.

Similarly, his defensive level, passing and running awareness far surpassed the official forest u18 players.

As a coach who has written many youth player training courses and has been adopted by the England youth national team.

It's hard to believe that Jiexi, who has such a powerful ability, has only played wild football.

After careful evaluation, Kubo found out.

What really makes Jie Xi powerful is actually his talent.

He seems to have an innate talent for football.

Jiexi has not undergone systematic training, but as long as he is allowed to take a look at the formal training facilities, he can tell the specific content of this training and the abilities that can improve the players.

Effort is very important.

But talent is also important.

Effort determines a player's floor.

And talent determines a player's upper limit.

After Jesse passed the Forest trial, Cooper immediately arranged a match between him and the first team.

The result of the game was miserable.

Jesse's b team lost the game with a score of 0:4.

And in this game, Jesse's performance was a disaster.

Cooper spotted the clues.

That is Jesse, who has been playing football in canvas shoes, and he doesn't seem to be quite used to playing in professional sneakers.

At the same time, it is not adapted to playing on a real football field.

In order to exercise, he arranged Jiexi in the u18 echelon led by Worrell.

This not only gave Jie Xi a chance to confront Xu Jin head-on.

At the same time, it also allows him to adapt to the rhythm of professional football faster.

Actual combat is always the best way to adapt quickly.

And Jiexi's performance after joining the u18 youth team is also worthy of his character.

Whenever Waller wanted to arrange for him to start the game, he always refused for various reasons.

This annoyed Waller very much.

He made several requests to Kubo to send Jay back to the first team.

But Kubo always responded with a smile: "Do you know why he is unwilling to play now? That is because he knows that he can't adapt to the rhythm of professional football games now, so if he starts now, it will not only fail to improve the team as a whole. Strength, on the contrary, will lower the competitiveness of the team.”

"Then what should I do now? You want me to train him well!"

Cooper said: "When our opponent is Middlesbrough, you put him on the field."

In the first half of today's game, the reason why Waller didn't arrange for Jesse to start was very simple.

First of all, he doesn't think his team will fall into the hands of Miburg.

They played at home, and they were also runners-up in the last FA Youth Cup.

Second, he really doesn't like Jesse!

In the first half of the game, it relied on the goals of Hamilton and Xu Jin.

Worrall had to re-examine whether he needed to send Jesse.

He really disliked this 17-year-old boy from the bottom of his heart.

Because of his style of leading the team, the players under him must obey orders.

However, Jiexi didn't listen to his command at all.

But in the face of the risk of losing, he can only choose to compromise.

After all, on the pitch, winning is more important than anything else.

……

Xu Jin stood in front of the door.

At this time, Jie Xi had already sprinted and dribbled the ball to the right side of the arc of the penalty area.

With just five steps left, he can dribble into the penalty area.

Now David and Johnson have almost completed the double team.

As long as anyone of them stretched out their feet, they could directly block Jie Xi's way forward.

He should choose to shoot!

Xu Jin thought.

Boom!

After a muffled sound, the football flew straight towards the upper right corner of the goal.
