Section 23 A wonderful start

On the day of the friendly match, when Lyon had arrived in Ajaccio, Zhao Yaning received his jersey.

His first jersey number was No. 17 - this number was a substitute number. Even the substitute goalkeeper was No. 16, but he only got No. 17.

Moreover, behind him was ZHAO, not the full name. This made Zhao Yaning feel embarrassed for a while. All domestic players print their full names, and the practice of only printing one surname seems a bit proud.

But thinking about it, there are no other Chinese in France anyway, so it's enough to print it like this.

And he didn't have enough time to go and feel embarrassed. Lyon's list of appearances alone was enough to surprise him.

Goalkeeper Cupe, France's second goalkeeper, left-back Casapa, Brazil's edge international, central defender Ed Milson and Muller, one is Brazil's international and the other is Sweden's international. Right-back De Frandel, Belgium's international. The left side of the midfield is Doraso, France's edge international, front midfielder Carrier, French national team substitute, back midfielder Vivianfo, Cameroon international, right-back Juninho, Brazil's edge international, two forwards are Sony Anderson, Brazil's edge international, team's new star Gowu, and French national team's edge international.

The lineup of this group of international players is terrifying. No wonder people say that Lyon is one of the strongest champions in Ligue 1.

And Ajaccio is much ugly.

The goalkeeper is Silva's starter, left-back Reeragi, centre-back Squillac and captain Colin starter, right-back Demund, left-back Zhao Yaning starter, and the midfield double midfielder Granon and Ananko, right-back Gregorian Lacombe, and Fadina and Rodriguez on the forward line.

Several other teammates, Tailiya, Moragini, Alicat, Seke, Cran and Levra, were all sitting on the bench.

Not to mention one team who has had international experience, but as many as four or five of them are rented. Such a team is simply a huge difference from the opponent.

When will I be able to join such a team? If I perform well, I can join the Paris lineup, right?

With this idea, the game began soon.

But immediately, he suffered a loss.

After Ajaccio kicked off, the ball was immediately passed to the backcourt. After two or three passes, it reached Zhao Yaning's feet. After Zhao Yaning received the ball, he turned around and was about to accelerate, but was knocked to the ground by a violent collision.

Zhao Yaning turned around and saw a big black face of a 17-good player from Lyon.

"Get up quickly!"

Rodriguez greeted and ran backwards.

That moment just now was Zhao Yaning's mistake. He did not retreat deeply when receiving the ball and was still within the coverage of Vivianfu. After receiving the ball, he did not move quickly enough, which made Vivianfu approach him from behind.

Vivianfu had enough experience. He did not immediately stick to Zhao Yaning, but slowed down a little. He only took a snatch when Zhao Yaning turned around. Because Zhao Yaning had turned around, he became facing Vivianfu, and Vivianfu broke the ball first and then hit it with his shoulder. This moment, his movements were not considered a foul.

This made Zhao Yaning grin in pain. A black man who was maliciously striking, no matter how he said, it would be impossible to feel good.

This guy did it on purpose. He just wanted me to feel uncomfortable, and then he didn't dare to get the ball or break through. This should be what the old players told him. As soon as he stepped onto the football field, the old guys gave them a gift. However, some old guys like to greet newcomers with skills, while some like to use their bodies.

Zhao Yaning stood up, although he glared at Vivianfu, he didn't say anything, and ran back to answer. He knew that chatting at this time was useless and looked down upon by people. Moreover, looking at the appearance of his teammates, they didn't seem to be ready to seek justice for themselves - perhaps in their opinion, Zhao Yaning is still adapting to French football, so it's better to suffer some losses. It's better to suffer losses in the warm-up match than to suffer losses in the official match again.

And they didn't have time to complain, and Lyon had already started attacking around the gate.

Although Sony Anderson is a fringe international in Brazil, he used to be Barcelona's striker. His strength level is very good. However, his style of play is completely European, he is not adapted to Brazil. Moreover, Brazil's Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Romario and others are all world-class superstars, and he really can't compete. However, in Ligue 1, he is like a killer. Last season, he scored 13 goals in 10 consecutive games, and he has scored goals in every game, which has even broken the record of Ligue 1.

Although his partner Gowu is not old, he is also a famous star in France. The famous battle for this forward who started football training at the age of 17 was Lyon's European battle against Bayern. At that time, he was less than 20 years old. Facing Bayern, who was the best in Europe at the time, he broke through the goal guarded by Kahn twice and became famous in one fell swoop.

Their attack power made the Lyon gate panic.

However, it seems that Lyon doesn't really want to kill his opponents Sony Anderson and Gowu immediately pressed, but the four midfielders almost all hit the front of the penalty area. In the original midfielder position, the midfielder Ed Milson made up, and the remaining three defenders were dragged behind.

It seems that Lyon is experimenting with his half-court offensive routine. Several frontcourt players kept passing the ball back and forth, but were reluctant to enter.

However, their passes and controls also caused Lyon's lineup to be continuously compressed, and almost all his men were compressed back to the backcourt. Even Zhao Yaning and Lacombe, who were ordered by Curbis to not participate in the defense, also contracted very deeply.

Finally, after Ananko took the ball, a loophole appeared on the defense line. Juninho immediately transferred the ball to Carrie beside him, and Carrie threw the ball without waiting for the ball to stop.

Gewu received the ball, turned around and shot!

The ball flew high over the crossbar and rushed towards the sky.

The cheers and screams all stopped abruptly. Gewu held his head, secretly glanced at the stands, smiled at his teammates, and ran back.

However, his teammates all had helpless expressions, as if they were used to such things.

"Joey!"

Captain Colin roared behind his back, which made Zhao Yaning come to his senses immediately. Only then did he realize that now is not the time to watch the stars, but what he should consider more is how to counterattack quickly.

He accelerated and ran towards the front. He knew what Silva would do at this time.

Sure enough, Silva kicked the ball with his big feet, and it was for him.

The ball was not accurate, so Zhao Yaning had to cut inward. Rodriguez in the backcourt had already started, but I don’t know if he could catch up. Strangely, the opponent’s players did not seem to have the idea of ​​actively returning to defense...

The moment his eyes were withdrawn from the ball, Zhao Yaning had already seen the opponent's position, and many thoughts flashed through his mind. However, when he turned around, he saw a figure in front of him approaching.

Edmilson.

Zhao Yaning understood a little why no one came back to defense. Everyone believed that Edmilson could stop Zhao Yaning.

This made Zhao Yaning feel a little angry. This is the official game. I am the offensive side, you are the defender side, I have the ball under my feet, and I face an open backcourt. Even if you are an international player, you can't underestimate me so much, do you really think I'm nothing?

Zhao Yaning suddenly accelerated. After all, his position was better. The ball fell at his feet. As soon as the ball was removed, Edmilson rushed up. Zhao Yaning stepped on the ball with his right foot, pulled the ball backward, and turned around to face Edmilson who was rushing over. Then, he moved his left foot and flashed past Edmilson.

Marseille gyro.

The wonderful movements made the audience scream, and Zhao Yaning accelerated without hesitation. He had already left the coach's words behind him, and he killed the ball towards the penalty area.

De Frandel followed with a replacement, while Casapa went to block Lacombe, but did not follow. Ed Milson behind him immediately came back and followed him. But what Zhao Yaning is most afraid of now is to compete for speed. He made up his mind and took the ball to the middle again, making De Frandel's replacement more difficult, and also directly rushed to the goal.

Kupei attacked without hesitation.

His calculations are not a problem. French players have good speed and their shooting skills are definitely not very good. They have good shooting skills, so there is no need to rely on their speed. Since Zhao Yaning can make a high speed and has good skills, it is probably no problem to bet on his shooting skills. As long as he can block his shooting angle from the front in the penalty area, his only way is to shoot at a small angle more than one step. Such a shooting will have much smaller chances of success.

There is a block in front and a pursuer in the back. There is no hesitation at this time. Defrandall has rushed towards the goal, and the save Kupei has reached the near penalty spot. If he goes further, he can only go one more step. He will definitely fall to the ground to block it, so he can only shoot at the far post, but the accuracy of shooting at a small angle is worrying, and Defrandall is also blocking the goal line...

There is only one most suitable way to deal with it.

He suddenly stopped and picked up the ball.

Picking shot?

Kupe jumped in vain, but did not hook the ball. Edmilson failed to close and collided with Zhao Yaning, and both of them fell to the ground. Defrandel had just turned around and saw the ball flying into the goal against the crossbar on his head.

“1-0!!!!!!”

The huge sound made Zhao Yaning jump up suddenly from the ground. The goal came so quickly that he had not even thought about how to celebrate.

But now he didn't have to think about it anymore. Lacombe had rushed over and gave him a warm hug.

"Good boy, good looks!"

Rodriguez, Colin, and Squillac also ran up and pulled Zhao Yaning to the audience. Everyone knew that it was not easy for Ajaccio to score a goal against such a strong team, so their celebration was a little longer, and no one cared too much.

Edmilson sat up from the ground, looked at the cheering crowd, turned to look at Kupei, and smiled bitterly, "I really didn't expect it..."

"I didn't expect you to be so stupid."

The person who answered him was Lyon's captain, Brazilian striker Sony Anderson. He walked past his compatriots without stopping, and touched Edmilson's head, "Get up, don't be sentimental like a girl."

Edmilson stood up and watched Sony Anderson pick up the ball from the net before meeting him, "Sony..."
