On the flight from Turin, Italy to Amsterdam, everyone sat silently.

No one was willing to speak.

Yang Yang sat in his seat and it was rare that he did not "sleep", but no one paid attention to his changes.

He was thinking about the whole game, his competition with Juventus stars, and his mistakes and opportunities he had made in the game.

Two voices kept popping up in his mind.

One is telling him that Zambrota is the world's top full-back, with excellent offense and defense, Nedved is also the world's top star, Emerson and Tacinati are also outstanding midfielders. In the face of such an opponent, he did not perform too ugly, which is enough.

"You're just eighteen years old!"

But there was another voice telling him that he could have done better, and he even had a chance to dribble into the penalty area, but in the confrontation with Zanbrota, he was squeezed away by the Italian full-back, causing the ball to be lost.

If he rushed into the penalty area that time and his speed increased, he would be confident that he would get a shot.

What if the ball goes in?

Guilt, self-blame, unwillingness, helplessness...

Many different complex emotions are intertwined, which is what Yang Yang feels at this moment.

Unconsciously, from when, Yang Yang took more responsibilities for himself, especially on the offensive end.

Perhaps, it was when media reporters called him Ajax's new flagship; or when a group of fans were wearing his jerseys and ran to the outside of DeTok Moste's training ground to cheer him on; or when Van Basten told him that the opportunity arose; or...

Who knows when?

This is a good thing, which means that his position within the team is constantly improving.

The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.

He knew that if he wanted to take over the flags left by Ibrahimovic and Van der Fate, he had to learn to play under such pressure and responsibility, or even defeat them.

Now, Yang Yang began to feel the mountain of pressure that had been overwhelming to the point of putting Van der Fate on the ground and overwhelmed.

He didn't know if he could take on this burden, but he was willing to accept this challenge.

The flight arrived at Amsterdam Airport late at night.

As soon as Yang Yang opened his cell phone, he immediately received two text messages from China.

"Although you lost the ball, you have tried your best, don't be sad."

"Secretly tell you good news. My dad has agreed to apply for the Central Academy of Drama. Thank you for your encouragement!"

After reading the text message, Su Xiaomei's smile appeared in Yang Yang's mind. The crisp laughter seemed to ring in his ears, which made his originally heavy mood much better.

"I'm fine, don't worry, congratulations on getting what you want."

After sending the text message, he put away his cell phone, followed the team out of the airport, and got on the bus.

Unexpectedly, I received a reply soon.

"I haven't even finished the eight characters yet, so I may not be able to pass the Central Academy of Drama."

Yang Yang didn't expect that Su Xiaomei was so late and she hadn't even slept yet.

Did she always wait for her reply?

But after thinking about it, I felt it was unlikely and shook my head funny.

"It's okay. If you don't pass the exam this year, you will repeat the exam. If you really can't pass the exam, I will try my best to help you realize your dreams. At least you can make a movie and appear on the big screen."

"I'm counting on you all."

Then another one was sent, "Then don't be discouraged. You must continue to play football, otherwise you will have no money to support me in a movie?"

Seeing that she was serious, Yang Yang couldn't help but smile, but he soon realized that it was Su Xiaomei who was trying to comfort him in different ways.

"Thank you, I'm in a much better mood."

"Then smile more. You look handsome when you smile. The girls in our class say they like to see you laugh."

Yang Yang couldn't help laughing again when he saw this sentence.

"Okay, I won't tell you anymore. I'm going to bed when I'm tired and I'll have to go to class tomorrow, thank you."

"Yeah, go to bed early, good night."

"So too, good night."

Yang Yang put away his cell phone, and his boredom in his heart also relieved a lot.

He was convinced when he lost the game, but he still felt very unwilling to accept it.

Super training ground.

After reviewing the game, Yang Yang began to engage in training.

But this time he did not conduct basic training and star skills like before, but directly practiced.

The simulated opponent is Juventus' Zambrota.

As the world's top full-back, Zanbrotta can play on both left and right sides. Although he debuted with a right foot player and a right back, he actually performed very well on the left side.

He is 1.81 meters tall and weighs 76 kilograms. He is very proficient in both left and right feet, fast speed, excellent physical fitness, strong ability to fight, and his style on the court is very fierce. He can pass forward and cut in through, and he can retreat and land and defend, which is very comprehensive.

Even, Yang Yang felt that he was synonymous with a perfect full-back.

In the super training ground, Yang Yang practiced against Zanbrotta, who was simulated, and was beaten to the ground by his opponent again and again. It was always difficult to break through Zanbrotta's defense.

But Yang Yang always stood up again and again and started to compete again.

At first, Lao Bing did not deliberately stop him, but gradually, he also discovered that Yang Yang was venting more than training.

Once Zanbrotta was shoveled and overturned, when Yang Yang stood up again, he found that the starlight and shadow in front of him had lost sight.

He knew that Lao Bing stopped practicing simulation.

"Do you know why you can't do anything to Zanbrotta?" Lao Bing's voice sounded faintly.

Yang Yang sat on the grass without saying a word.

"It's not only you, but countless wing assaulters can't help him. Do you know why?"

Yang Yang was a little curious, "Why?"

"Because under normal performance, he is fully versatile and has almost no weaknesses."

Yang Yang was silent. He had to admit that Lao Bing was right and Zanbrotta really had no weaknesses.

"I still remember what I told you before, only comprehensive technology can create rich and changeable tactics. Zambrota is like a full-back without obvious flaws, and Juventus is like a steel legion without obvious flaws."

"Faced with such a team and such an opponent, you only have one way to go, that is, to make yourself as comprehensive as your opponent, hide all your weaknesses and weaknesses, fight with your opponent, and see who exposes your weaknesses first."

Yang Yang still didn't say anything, but he knew that Lao Bing was right.

Juventus is indeed such a team, and there is also a team of this type in the Netherlands.

Eindhoven under Hiddink's training is like a simple version of Juventus.

After the national derby, Yang Yang even thought that if he hadn't scored a breakthrough from Li Rongpyo and earned a penalty kick and a red card from Alex, Ajax would have been in danger in the final result of that game.

This is true for teams and so is the players.

Why is Ibrahimovic terrible?

He has extremely outstanding physical fitness, height, strength, confrontation, and he has the advantages of all Nordic high center forwards.

But what's even more terrifying is that he has delicate foot skills that are not inferior to the No. 10 player, and his body flexibility is also quite excellent. These make him look like a technical player with a Nordic strong body, making him more comprehensive.

On the other hand, my basic skills are to be supplemented, and my skills to stop the ball are no longer dragged on, but these are still far from enough.

Especially when facing European full-backs like Zambrota, Yang Yang needs to make himself more comprehensive, which requires higher and more demanding requirements for himself.

He needs to hone his basic skills more carefully and solidly, polish his stopping to a more stable manner, and make every stopping step more comfortable.

He wants to be stronger!

…………

In the morning, Yang Yang still got up early and ran around Odkerk Lake with Maxwell, Fermulen, Macon and others for three laps. The whole process was gone without the cheerful atmosphere of the past and became a little depressed.

After running, after breakfast, Yang Yang went straight to the gym in DeTok Most

He still meticulously completed the warm-up movements before strength training like usual, and did not dare to slack off at all.

Winston Bogard still arrived at the gym on time, accompanied Yang Yang on one to carry out morning strength training, and asked him a few subtle questions from time to time.

After Yang Yang completed training events such as bench press, squat, deadlift, instant arm-mounting and bicycles, he took out the nutritious drink he had carefully prepared. He watched Yang Yang pinch his nose and poured it into his stomach, and then he completed the task with satisfaction.

But Yang Yang did not want to leave as early as usual today, but asked with concern, "Winston, are you free during the winter break?"
