Chapter 18 Worry
Seeing that Han Demen was feeling a little depressed, Zheng Yi reached out and patted his shoulder to show comfort.
As for what kind of words such as divine rewards hard work, Zheng Yi did not say it. He believed that Han Demen could understand it.
Han Demen glanced at Zheng Yi and didn't say anything, but nodded, with a thank you in his expression.
He also knows that goalkeepers are different from other positions. Once the main goalkeeper is established, it is generally difficult to get on the bench. At the same time, he also understands that as long as the goalkeeper gets the chance to play, the probability of becoming the main force is far greater than that of other positions, so he must be able to endure loneliness.
When they came out of the locker room and returned to the Alfredo Distefano Stadium again, everyone found that many people had come to the otherwise deserted stadium. In addition to the several media accompanying the domestic market setting up machines, there were also many brown-haired and blue-eyed Westerners stopping to watch.
Judging from their outfits, it is difficult to tell their identity. It may be tourists or Castile staff. Regardless of their identity, one thing is certain that they are very interested in this game. They want to see what strength this team from Asia has to challenge Castile elites.
Under the gaze of the audience on the sidelines, the starters of both sides walked into the stadium, while the substitutes walked towards the bench.
Castilla is currently participating in the Spanish third-tier league. As home court, the bench at Alfredo Distefano Stadium is still very formal, at least the players will not need to bring their own benches because of insufficient position.
Zheng Yi and Han Demen sat in a corner of the second row of the bench, a distance from the others, and it looked like they were isolated from the distance. Zheng Yi and the others wanted to sit with others, but the others were unwilling and they had no choice.
When the players walked into the court, the referee was already in place, and the three parties stood in a row to take photos to commemorate. Although it was just a friendly match for the warm-up match, the pre-match ceremony was still very formal, such as exchanging team flags and picking sides.
In this game, Hengyuan captain was the "Bag Tiger" Lu Lin, while the captain of Real Madrid Youth Team was Zheng Yi's "old acquaintance" Marcos Diego. After taking a group photo, they exchanged team flags under the witness of the referee.
Why is Marcos an old acquaintance? Did Zheng Yi have any interaction with him before? In fact, there is no! The reason why he is called an "old acquaintance" is because Zheng Yi played 12 games with the Real Madrid captain in the virtual space. As a forward, he fought against defender Marcos countless times, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a "acquaintance".
Seeing Lulin and Marcos exchange team flags in a friendly manner, what appeared in Zheng Yi's mind was the scene of fighting with Marcos in the system last night.
As a central defender, Marcos has outstanding strength and strong prediction and interception ability. He has prevented Zheng Yi from being tempted in the system. No matter what method Zheng Yi uses, he has never broken through his defense.
After 12 games, Zheng Yi fully experienced what "reinforced concrete" defense is, and he was very desperate!
"Oh~ I hope the reality is not as miserable as the virtual space..."
As his eyes turned back to reality, Zheng Yi couldn't help but sigh, praying for good luck in his heart...
...
After the ceremony, the game began soon. During the beginning of the game, it was not the expected Real Madrid youth team that took the initiative on the field, but the Hengyuan mixed team from China.
Hengyuan substitutes took advantage of the Real Madrid youth team's contempt and lack of understanding of them and launched several waves of offensives. The best opportunity was Lulin's cross from the bottom after successfully breaking through the wing.
In the end, the white forward Beicai, who jumped to the top before Marcos, and the ball finally went high out of the goal beam.
This extremely threatening attack made everyone on Hengyuan’s bench excited and jumped up from the position to cheer for their team (it was not easy to play against Real Madrid). Peng Guowei, who has always been serious, also showed praise.
Hengyuan team made a beautiful offense, and several domestic media accompanying them were also very happy. They came to Europe for a clear purpose - positive reports on Hengyu football for rewards! What is positive reports? It not only amplifies the spirit of the players and the victory at a certain stage.
For example, Beic's header is enough for them to write an article to ask for rewards. The title is "Hengyuan PK Real Madrid missed the opportunity to score".
Less gossip, whether it is players, coaches, or media, it is a joy to win the opportunity to score at the beginning of Hengyuan. However, not everyone was very excited. Zheng Yi, who was sitting in the second row of the bench, was full of worries.
Two words are written on his face, which claims to be "a prosperous age", - depression! The source of his depression is that Beech's header is higher.
If there were no experience in those 12 games, Zheng Yi would have celebrated like his teammates. It would be a great thing to be able to play against Real Madrid (regardless of the teams). But because of those 12 games, Zheng Yi knew that what Beic missed might be their only chance to break the goal of the Real Madrid youth team in the game. It would be depressed if anyone missed the only chance...
...
I have to say that Zheng Yi’s “premonition” is really accurate, and if you miss the opportunity, you will be punished. Although Beic’s header has certainly improved the morale of the team, it also reminds the members of the Real Madrid youth team.
I didn’t know you before, so I gave you the opportunity to shoot, and I won’t make the same mistake again later.
After the goal was tested, Real Madrid youth team began to exert force, and Hengyuan substitutes immediately felt huge pressure. They were pressed tightly in their half and could not move.
The situation suddenly became passive, which made Hengyuan's heart tremble. However, just as they silently prayed not to lose the ball, Hengyuan lost the ball...
The goal for Real Madrid youth team was midfielder Fevas, a Spanish guy with a thin figure but excellent footwork.
Zheng Yi also recognized this person and had broken through the Hengyuan team's door many times in the virtual space.
The way he scored goals was similar to that in the virtual space. He first used his outstanding footwork skills to get rid of the defense of the midfielder Gao Zhilin, and then faced the central defender Li Jianbin with a fake move, dodged the shooting angle, then pulled his foot and shot into the ball.
Faced with Fevas' attack, Hengyuan goalkeeper also made a save move, but Fevas' angle strength was excellent and he failed to save the ball.
After conceding the ball, Hengyuan sighed on the bench, and everyone felt sorry for the concealment of the ball. After all, before conceding the ball, they had threatened the goal of the Real Madrid youth team.
Han Demen, who was sitting next to Zheng Yi, was even more anxious and slapped the front seats with a ferocious expression, as if he could definitely save the ball if he guarded the goal on the court.
At this time, Zheng Yi still did not follow the public. Everyone else sighed and regretted, but he looked worried and frowned.
It’s not that he looked down on his team, and he felt like he was losing only one goal, but after experiencing those 12 games, he knew that Hengyuan really did not have the capital to confront his opponent, and this loss of the goal was just the beginning.
The reason why he showed his strength was because Hengyuan lost the ball too early, and he was afraid that Real Madrid youth team could play a higher score than the virtual space...
