Dear Gua
Chapter 94 Tuchel's Magic!
She gave people a feeling of being bathed in a spring breeze.
For some inexplicable reason, Li Kang recalled a quote from his tactical instructor, Berenta: "Knowledge is armor engraved with roses!"
There was no mention of tactics, nor of transfer matters.
Chelsea simply conveyed Abramovich's appreciation for Li Kang.
Skaya didn't linger long. After a brief chat, she left the room with a smile.
....
Li Kang was about to find something to juggle with his "Golden Left Foot."
Suddenly, he saw a half-pack of cigarettes on the table.
Judging from the packaging, they must be expensive.
Ms. Skaya must have left them behind.
He immediately got up and chased after her.
As soon as he stepped out of the room.
The mature woman was nowhere to be seen in the empty corridor, only a distraught Asian girl remained.
Does she have a ball?
....
Li Kang subconsciously made a gesture for the ball, one used in training.
Yu-jeong paused, then tossed the ball over.
She actually understood!
She had received professional soccer training as a child!
"I forgot to bring a pen..."
Clap!
Li Kang raised his left foot and trapped the ball.
The soccer ball seemed to become a part of his body!
Dancing gracefully in the air!
Each jump reached a height that seemed to have been measured with a ruler, without the slightest deviation...
Golden Left Foot?
Yu-jeong glanced at the chandelier on the ceiling, but didn't back away. While nervous and excited, she also wore a smile on her face.
She suddenly recalled the Manchester City coach she had met at the elevator entrance, and then tried to remember what the middle-aged woman looked like... It was Chelsea's Ms. Skaya!
Her shattered worldview began to reassemble!
The thickness of her fan filter increased by hundreds of times!
She couldn't help but raise her Bayer Leverkusen number 10 jersey and whispered, "Can you sign this for me? I forgot to bring a pen..."
Li Kang was in a good mood, unexpectedly inheriting some of Baggio's ball sense with his Golden Left Foot.
He remembered there was a pen on the table, so he turned and walked back into the room.
Yu-jeong's mind went blank, and she followed him in as if possessed.
Bang!
A sudden gust of wind slammed the door shut.
...
At the end of the corridor.
Wenger's smile was even more bitter as he witnessed this scene.
It seemed that he had lost the opportunity to speak with Li Kang tonight.
Coupled with Wilshere's injury...
It was a difficult situation.
Although Arsenal couldn't offer overly generous material conditions, they could definitely satisfy emotional needs!
They would make Li Kang captain!
Nothing could satisfy emotional needs more than the significance of being captain!
Suddenly.
Arsenal's coach heard chattering Japanese in his ear.
Why were there Japanese service staff in a Korean hotel?
Oh! This was a hotel run by Japanese people!
How rare!
........
Late at night.
Hotel surveillance footage was leaked!
News stories quickly soared to the top of online trending charts!
《Korean Team Loses the Game and Their Dignity? National Sweetheart Secretly Meets Spanish-Chinese Genius in Hotel!》
《Night of Bloodshed, Hidden Romance!》
《Korea's Most Humiliating Night in Football History!》
《Idol Halo Collapses! Korean Public Breaks Down in Tears!》
The number of comments, reposts, and likes exploded.
-【I didn't expect you, Li Mingdeng, to be this kind of person! Killing and then insulting! Well done!】
-【The surveillance is so clear, is this girl really only 16 years old? She's so well-developed! What's wrong with young people dating? Why are Korean fans reacting so strongly?】
-【Let me give you an inappropriate analogy: it's like the Korean team defeated the Italian team by a large margin, and their star player took Monica Bellucci, who was a teenager at the time...】
-【Let me analyze it, pay attention to Li Mingdeng's expression, it's not the attitude between lovers at all! The kimchi girl must have been a little thirsty and went into the room to get a glass of water!】
.....
One day later.
Nothing happened between Li Kang and Yu-jeong.
He signed the autograph and let her leave.
The whole process took less than a minute.
Who knew that the surveillance video leaked from the Japanese hotel conveniently cut out the part where Yu-jeong left.
Just one minute, or even less than fifty seconds!
...
On the plane.
"Boss, the Korean Football Association is really stingy, they canceled the Spanish team's reception activities!"
"It's okay, the Japanese Football Association invited us over! Let's stick to the itinerary!"
Del Bosque narrowed his eyes, feeling drowsy.
Miniano looked exhausted, and said weakly, "Lads, when we get to Hokkaido, help me buy some capsules..."
Li Kang was holding a tablet, watching clips of the "Cruyff Turn."
This elegant and practical move has not been eliminated in the wave of football reform for more than forty years, and is a perfect combination of speed and flexibility.
Not that classic famous scene.
Nor the widely circulated instructional video.
In dozens of video clips: the young Cruyff's feint details were different every time he turned and escaped.
Many later players can also do this move, but only get the form, not the spirit!
The current Manchester City defensive midfielder is the closest one!
In the 2012/13 Manchester derby, Yaya Touré showed off the "Cruyff Turn," taking on four defensive players and shocking Europe.
But Cruyff himself said: Yaya Touré's turn was still not smooth enough, and he had taken on five top defensive players when he was young!
....
Li Kang carefully observed the similarities in all the turn clips.
The feint doesn't seem to be the most important thing!
Nor is the smoothness of the turn.
The most important detail is...
Among the Spanish players, many can speak Japanese.
De Gea can.
This guy really likes Naruto and Pokémon.
He suddenly blurted out: "Li-san! It's snowing in Hokkaido!"
Li Kang was stunned.
Then he realized.
What was missing from the phone notification bar?
Asuka-chan!
The two hadn't been in contact for a long time.
But that was understandable.
Asuka-chan was a very independent girl whose acting career was on the rise and wouldn't waste time on meaningless things.
Li Kang certainly wouldn't take the initiative to bother her.
Frequent socializing can sometimes become a burden.
......
Two hours later.
The Spanish team arrived in Hokkaido and was warmly welcomed by the Japanese Football Association.
Thousands of Japanese fans held up posters of Li Kang and chased after him wildly.
Even their local stars had never enjoyed such treatment.
The Japanese Football Association proposed to learn more advanced teaching concepts from the La Masia youth training camp in order to create a "Japanese Li Kang"!
Miniano readily agreed.
He knew nothing about La Masia.
In previous years, when the Japanese Football Association talked about creating a "Japanese Messi" and a "Japanese Xavi," his predecessors would just casually ask for a youth training teaching document from a Spanish third division club as a substitute.
.....
Leverkusen.
The coaching staff was holding a meeting in full swing.
Old Man Toppmöller drew a large cross on the blackboard.
"Tuchel has changed! This guy's past two league games are not limited to a three-center-back system! We have to overturn our original planned tactics!"
"This season's Dortmund has reduced the ineffective running of all midfielders and forwards! They emphasize more effective running and passing! Saving energy, so our tactics of speeding up after 70 minutes like last season are unusable!"
"All Bundesliga teams knew how to deal with Dortmund last season! But Tuchel has brought something different!"
Dino took notes seriously, and raised his head to ask: "Boss, Dortmund doesn't have any Champions League pressure this season! Their players are in great shape, especially the defenders! What should we do?"
Everyone looked at the Bayer Leverkusen coach expectantly.
Old Man Toppmöller's face flushed, but he couldn't say a word for a long time.
Dortmund collapsed last season, and didn't even qualify for the Champions League.
This season's new coach - Tuchel, that guy seems to have cast a spell on the Black Hornets... Their league has been singing all the way! Sticking to Bayern's tail in the standings!
Leverkusen lost to Union Berlin in the second round of the Bundesliga, so they have the same points as Gladbach and Schalke 04!
If they can't get past Dortmund, then their hopes of winning the championship this season will be even slimmer.
"It's all Magath's fault!"
