Football: The immortal legend on the green field

Emotions that cannot be described in words surged into Shen Bin's heart.

The fear of the unfamiliar environment in the dream requires an adaptation process. He wondered if God was playing tricks on him through dreams because of his desire for the professional arena.

But the reality is not so.

At least the harsh environment encountered in reality will not happen here. If you are confused about your future, you can also find comfort here. At least it is helping 15-year-old children realize their dreams of playing in professional arenas.

Everything he lacked in reality, he now possessed.

The encouragement of relatives and friends, the trust of the coach, and the recognition of teammates, even if it is only one game, is enough.

At the pre-match preparation meeting, veteran coach Luke Allison’s speech confirmed two things.

Today's league opener belongs to Garrincha. Due to physical reasons, he will come on in the second half. Before he comes on, everything is carried out according to the old tactics. Once he comes on, he is free in the frontcourt, whether he is waiting for the pass on the striker line or dribbling freely in the midfield, he has the final say. In short, his will determines the direction of the game.

Luke's slap woke Shen Bin up. His strong desire for the competition was like a thirsty antelope on the Sahara grassland seeing a stream ahead. Even if there were crocodiles in the river waiting for him, he would rush over without hesitation to taste the sweet spring that nourishes his heart.

Full and vigorous fighting spirit dispels fear.

For the first time, he looked at the stadium he had never dreamed of and the cheering fans. He had imagined countless times himself running on the court as a professional player.

When it really happened to him, it didn't feel real.

From the 1950s to the early 1990s, South American football was a true art paradise. They were extremely obsessed with playing with their feet. The fights were not fierce, and there was even little physical contact. The players were obsessed with playing with their feet. Every player would dribble after getting the ball, and the game rhythm was very slow.

This situation did not change until Brazil was blocked from the top eight in the 90 World Cup. In the 8 World Cup, they recruited tough players such as Dunga, Blanco, Cafu and others, and once again reached the top of the world.

This kind of environment is just right for Shen Bin, who is at this age, to accumulate skills and master the ball.

The two central defenders of Bonsuceso felt a little strange when they saw Shen Bin slowly walking towards them.

At that time, the football formation did not focus on the midfield. The popular position was 424, which means there were only two people in the midfield. The midfielder's responsibility was not to defend and organize, but only to play a transitional role.

Generally, the defender will start dribbling and passing the ball after getting it, then pass it to the forward through the midfield. The forward will also start dribbling and passing the ball after getting it from the midfield until he loses the ball or shoots.

No one was as close to the opposing defender as Shen Bin. Whether attacking or defending, both sides left enough distance between themselves and the opponent, and there was very little physical contact.

Not to mention Brazil, the paradise of artistic football, even Britain, which is considered a barbaric football by South Americans, despises brutal collisions. In that country that commits all kinds of atrocities such as burning, killing, looting and robbing all over the world, people often use grace to label themselves and whitewash themselves. If a sport is not recognized by the "upper class", it will be difficult for it to develop.

In order to gain recognition from the "big guys", the management at the time had differences on the direction of football development, and the stage historically known as "thug football" came to an end.

In 1848, many students at Cambridge University had begun to adapt a set of rules that were easy for everyone to accept - the Cambridge Rules.

The landmark event was the Masonic Tavern Meeting on October 1863, 10. At that time, 26 clubs and schools in London came together to discuss the rules applicable to their games, and finally determined that kicking, tripping, and running with the ball were prohibited.

However, some clubs do not accept such rules, so there is a disagreement between the civilized faction and the rough faction.

Rugby and soccer eventually parted ways because of the rules.

Bon Suceso's defender looked at the young boy who was walking towards him. He looked silly and walked a little strangely. Did Botafogo have no one left? Why did they replace him?

Feeling the contemptuous looks from the Bon Sucesso players, Shen Bin felt a little embarrassed.

I am right! I have always played like this whenever I was assigned to play as a striker since I was a child!

But in the eyes of the other party, his identity as a rookie was completely exposed.

Never mind, this is how I kick, that’s it!

But Bonsuceso's two central defenders looked at each other and shook their heads in their hearts at the same time.

This guy looks much easier to deal with than the one in the first half.

He is only 1 meters tall and thin, but his size and build are there.

The two central defenders of the other team did not take him too seriously. They all thought that this kid was stupid and not very good.

Shen Bin saw his teammate Serge Osei in the midfield get the ball. There was a good passing route between the two of them, so he raised his hand to signal Serge. The defender was still a little distance away from him, leaving enough space for a sprint, but Serge did not pass the ball immediately because he had no awareness of this aspect in his philosophy.

Sergi was dribbling forward, and until the opponent came up to press, he did not choose to pass the ball immediately, but wanted to pass the opponent one-on-one.

Sergi's dribbling attempt failed, the ball was quickly snatched back by the opponent, and this attack didn't even pass the center line.

The opponent's player who made the steal did the same as Sergi, dribbling forward after getting the ball. Sergi turned around and tried to steal the ball back. After a fierce fight, Sergi got the ball back.

After two interceptions, Shen Bin finally realized that this match was a one-on-one competition of footwork!

So each team will line up in a strange formation like 424.

When the ball was snatched away again, Shen Bin did not continue to squat in front as he did before, but took the initiative to retreat and raised his hand to ask for the ball.

Under the opponent's pressure, the ball finally reached Shen Bin's feet. After stopping, without waiting for the central defender behind him to get close, Shen Bin passed the ball to Alessandro Reina who also played as a center forward on the other side.

However, Alessandro did not pass the ball back to Shen Bin who ran out of the open space in time, but tried to dribble past the opponent's defender. As a result, Shen Bin's running was in vain.

Shen Bin's face was filled with black lines.

……

How can this be played! I suspected that they were all throwing money, but it turned out that I was the one throwing money!

Shen Bin found himself a little out of tune with the team's tactical system.

Shen Bin took advantage of a dead ball opportunity to call several people in the frontcourt together, and told them that as long as they got the ball and the opponent's player pressed forward, they were not allowed to pass the player, and they must pass the ball to him as soon as possible.

When someone raised doubts, Shen Bin used what Old Luke said before the war to threaten the other party, saying that this was how the coach arranged it, so what!

Several teammates had to compromise.

The game started again. When his teammates tried to dribble past others with the ball as usual, Shen Bin would scold them loudly. No matter what, I'm just scolding them. If you don't accept it, come and hit me!

After a few times, his teammates got fed up and finally started passing the ball the way Shen Bin wanted.

In the 24th minute of the second half, Alisandro got the ball again, Shen Bin ran into the gap in time, and the ball finally reached Shen Bin's feet in time.

The two central defenders of the opposing team were both tall and strong compared to Shen Bin. Players like them were not interested in Shen Bin running around. At the beginning, one defender barely kept up with him, but later he just stared at him from a distance.

Shen Bin received a pass from his teammate, but the opponent's central defender didn't catch up at all and there were no defensive players around. So he stopped the ball, turned around, and moved forward while gesturing to his teammates.

Come on, idiots, follow me!

Midfielder Bernie Lyle reacted immediately and rushed forward as fast as he could.

Shen Bin had just taken two steps forward when the opponent's center back blocked his way.

Without waiting for the opponent to get close, Shen Bin gently sent the ball with his left foot in front of midfielder Bernie Lyle, and he smiled at the opponent's central defender, exerted force with his legs, and started moving quickly.

The opponent's central defender had never seen such a style of play before and was unable to react, so he was left behind in an instant.

After Shen Bin started, he pushed forward as fast as he could while shouting, "Pass it over here, pass it over here..."

And his teammate Bernie Lyle actually made a straight pass and sent the ball behind the defense line.

The pass was a little off target. Although Shen Bin got the ball first, the opponent's central defender also returned to his position in time.

Shen Bin had no choice but to stop the ball with an emergency stop, and the opponent's center back also stopped as well.

But immediately afterwards, Shen Bin made a fake move, pretending to start again, and broke through with the ball, tricking the opponent's central defender into trying to block him immediately, but Shen Bin suddenly pushed the ball sideways with his right foot, changed direction and cut inside, and chased after him again.

The goalkeeper was hesitating whether to step forward to block or stand at the goal line to prepare for a save. Shen Bin did not raise his foot to shoot, but took advantage of the opponent's hesitation and kicked the ball with his toes, and the ball rolled over the goal line from the goalkeeper's right side.
