"On October 20, I played for five minutes, no goal, and we drew."
"On October 27, I played for ten minutes, didn't touch the ball, and we were tied."
"On November 3, I played for 12 minutes, no goals, and we drew."
…
By November, Munich has completely entered winter.
Wang Yijing's life has not changed much. Her main tasks every day are still training and learning languages, and occasionally, she strolls around the court.
Yes, she just wandered around. Although her playing time increased every time, she basically just ran around with the team... If we talk about statistics, it would be zero assists, zero goals, and zero defense...
This performance disappointed the German media, which had high expectations for her earlier: "After such a brilliant performance, we thought we would welcome a genius, but now it seems... maybe we have to wait a little longer..."
This is a relatively mild statement, while some fierce ones have become like this: "That day, the cheers at the Allianz Arena made us think that Bayern won the Champions League - at that time, I'm afraid Bayern also felt that the championship was not far away from them, but unfortunately, we were too optimistic. China Jing's performance was more like a flash of inspiration, and we didn't see it again in the subsequent games - I don't agree with Linda's statement that China Jing's playing time was too short. Yes, her playing time was indeed not long, but time is earned by strength. Five minutes may not do anything, but what about ten minutes? Did we see anything? Shooting may be a little difficult, but what about interceptions? Fighting? Nothing. Although she ran actively, my God, this is not a running competition. What's more, in the game against Frankfurt that just ended, China Jing's playing time was not short... Well, it wasn't particularly short, but can you believe it? She hardly touched the ball in twelve minutes!"
…
There was a lot of discussion outside, but Princess Wang herself was still satisfied with her current life.
The first is that she finally had communication with her teammates. Although it was simple, they could see each other, say hello and clap their hands.
Although it was just a simple interaction, at least I no longer have to do everything alone.
Secondly, she got reassurance from Linda.
Although Wang Yijing said earlier that she could go to a lower-level league, deep down... she was actually unwilling to go.
Let’s not talk about face for now. The most important thing is that she doesn’t think going to a lower-level league will be of much help to her.
Others may need to play the game first and keep their touch on the ball.
Her problems were language, strength, and ball sense, which were at the bottom of the list.
But that's how it is in the team. If the coach thinks you are useless, he will send you down, just like when you went to the national team for training earlier. If you are useful, then continue to follow. If you are useless, then you will go wherever you are supposed to go.
And now, at least she doesn't have to worry about this for the time being. .
But the most important thing is that Wang Yijing feels that she is making progress.
Yes, I think.
Not a system.
Of course she has made progress in the system, and now, in terms of feeling, in terms of her own feelings, she is making progress.
She felt her heart sink.
She has been moving upwards since her rebirth.
Her condition was improving, her grades were improving, she achieved things that she would never have thought of in her previous life, and then, she couldn't help but float up.
She didn't have this awareness earlier.
She works very hard every time!
Every time, I tried my best!
It’s because of the golden finger. She has to admit that without the golden finger, she wouldn’t have achieved her current results. However, her golden finger also requires hard work.
But during this period of time, she gradually felt that she was still relying on the golden finger.
The golden finger will confirm her progress and give her abilities, but she cannot rely solely on the golden finger!
She wants to... have her own judgment!
On the court, she not only needs to be aware of her running position, but also how to handle the ball.
When passing the ball, she not only needs the technique, but also needs to have an understanding and grasp of the entire court, or at least this area.
When she is not training, she no longer just completes tasks, but goes to watch games and take notes.
As the days went by, there was no obvious change in her statistics, but she felt that she was different.
However, Princess Wang feels good about herself, but her fans have a different opinion, especially those in China. Most of them think that Linda did not give her enough time. But Wang Yijing doesn't know this. Not to mention the situation in China thousands of miles away, she doesn't know much about what's happening in Germany either - there's a language barrier!
Wang Xiaogong has a lot of tasks to do now, so he has no time to visit the forum.
However, although she no longer visits the forum, Penguin still visits it from time to time, mainly to connect with old friends.
So she knew that Tiezhong had made it to the provincial competition smoothly—as it should be;
And also made it to the national competition – which was a bit of a surprise.
This year, there are not only city competitions, but also provincial competitions and group competitions. However, Tiezhong has almost no veteran players from the previous batch.
If you say that Tiezhong doesn't have this, then other teams are like this as well, including Tiezhong itself. It has been like this in previous years, but Tiezhong's team last year was really too luxurious - the two players who had entered the national team would have been a dimensionality reduction blow if they were put in the provincial competition. Well, Zhang Sheng is just like Yang Mo. Now that he has gone to college, he naturally can no longer participate in high school competitions, but Wang Yajing could have played for another two years! She alone could have elevated Tiezhong to the level of a giant in the provincial competition, but after she left, Tiezhong suddenly felt a bit of a lack of successors.
In addition, Coach Ni has limited time to spend with his players this year.
In the past, she and her teammates ate and exercised together. The time she spent with her teammates every day was probably longer than that of her parents, not to mention her class teacher. This time, let alone being in the team, she was not even in Biandong.
Of course, this did not affect her prestige among the team members. In fact, the new team members and even their parents all looked up to her. After many years, Coach Ni heard the familiar words again: "I'm leaving my child in your hands. You can beat and scold him as you like."
…
But she does not know her players as well as she used to.
Apart from this, the teams from Zhongzhou Province all felt a bit more motivated this year, especially when facing Tiezhong.
There are multiple reasons for this. First, Biandong was the provincial champion last year, and their champion is not a veteran powerhouse like Yongcheng Provincial No. 1. In the past, there were quite a few teams similar to Tiezhong. So this year they inevitably have a feeling of, ah, we let you win the championship last year, let’s try again this year - what? What to do if you fail? What’s the loss if you fail?
And if they succeed, it means they have defeated Tiezhong!
Secondly, it’s because of Coach Ni.
She was seconded to the national team twice, and achieved good results both times. Not only Tiezhong, but other schools were guessing when she would be officially transferred there. Coach Sun from Yongcheng asked the question many times in a roundabout way this time.
Even if the team members don’t think about this, they still have their parents and coaches - if they don’t show it now, when will they?
What, if we beat Tiezhong, will Coach Ni be unhappy? You have to know that she is not just a coach at Tiezhong!
But the most important thing is that Tiezhong has a demonstration effect.
In the past, the football performance of Zhongzhou Province - regardless of whether it was the men's or women's team, or even whether it was an adult team, was only average in the country.
It has all of them, and they are not too bad, but there are no outstanding results, like the earlier provincial first and Yongcheng, which only made it to the quarterfinals.
Of course, reaching the quarterfinals is already pretty good, but from a national perspective, it cannot be said to be a very good team. As for the players, occasionally one or two may be selected for the national team, and then we don’t know whether they can stay in the training camp, and it is also hard to say whether they can become the main players after staying. Or even if they did make it, the performance of the entire team… Well, in the past two years, the domestic women’s football team has been in decline.
But last year, Tiezhong made it to the national top four. Three players in the team were selected for national team training, two became main players, and one even went to Germany!
It turns out that playing football can not only help you go to school, but also help you go abroad!
For Wang Yijing, tens of thousands of euros are just a small amount, but for most girls who play football, it is an astronomical figure.
It is no exaggeration to say that this year's provincial competition in Zhongzhou Province has made a qualitative breakthrough in both quantity and quality.
The reason why Tiezhong was able to make it out this year is, firstly, that the level of coach Ni has greatly improved compared to before; secondly, the depth of Tiezhong's bench this year is much better than last year - with more people, some talents can always be picked out; thirdly, Su Li still has an overwhelming advantage over ordinary players; fourthly, it is Ren Hong.
Yes, it’s Ren Hong.
This was something Wang Yijing had never thought of before, and even Ren Hong herself hadn't thought of it.
She has some talent in goalkeeping, but in the past this talent was probably only slightly stronger than in other areas...and then, goalkeepers are also more scarce than other positions, so they are not that extraordinary.
But things were different when Coach Ni took over the team.
In the past, Coach Ni’s goalkeeping skills were just average... and now she can’t say she’s that good, but this time she watched a professional goalkeeper’s on-site teaching! And after watching for several months, the coaches would chat with each other when they had nothing to do, and they got to know the goalkeepers better.
Ren Hong's physical condition is actually quite average.
She is 1.66 meters tall, which is not short for a girl, but a little short for a goalkeeper. Her arms are quite long, not too long to be abrupt, but considering her height ratio, they need to be longer. After that, she has very good flexibility. She can do stretching that is difficult for many players effortlessly. But the most important thing is that she seems to have a talent for connecting things.
Coach Ni didn't notice it at first, until one day Su Li threw a ball of paper at her and she grabbed it.
Coach Ni was stunned when she saw it. It was nothing special to catch a ball of paper, but Ren Hong caught it very easily. It didn't look like she was catching it, but more like she was taking it. She paid attention to it at the time, and after observing it several times, she found that Ren Hong's way of catching things was really different, but it seemed that it could only be small items.
She is very good at catching paper balls and snacks, but she is not so good at catching big ones.
After confirming it, Coach Ni asked her. Ren Hong herself was a little dazed, as she had no idea about it at all.
“There’s really no difference between catching a ball and catching these things.”
Ren Hong looked at Coach Ni in a daze and thought that there was still a difference.
"Let's give it a try."
After that, Coach Ni arranged for someone to throw sandbags to Ren Hong. At first, Ren Hong was a little unfamiliar with the sandbags, but soon he became familiar with it as if it were catching snacks. Then he switched to tennis, children's football, and then real football.
When it comes to children's football, she is no longer required to catch the ball. She can either kick it out or block it. Technically, this was easier for Ren Hong. Of course, she had to overcome psychological barriers. However, children's footballs are lighter and smaller than normal footballs, and the ball was fed to her by hand at the beginning. So she broke through relatively smoothly, and later she switched to normal football without much difficulty.
In short, when Ren Hong had similar reactions to football and snacks, it was almost amazing.
This is what Ren Hong said to Wang Yijing: "Hahaha, see? This is talent! Talent! This is my talent."
“Are you sure it’s a talent?”
“It has to be!”
"Isn't that what you learned from throwing snacks at me over the years?"
"fart!"
On the Penguin, Ren Hong typed a series of exclamation marks. Wang Yajing laughed out loud and was also happy in her heart.
She knew that Ren Hong was flexible because last time she was a kindergarten teacher, she led the children in various dances, but she had no idea that she was better at catching things. Of course, they used to throw snacks and stationery around, but many students did that, and she didn't think Ren Hong did any better.
But now it is proved that Ren Hong does have some talent.
Wang Yijing didn’t know whether playing football was better than being a kindergarten teacher, but she thought that her friend probably wouldn’t get married in two or three years and then hold her child in her arms and tell her that the world was a bad place.
Although it was difficult, Tiezhong still made it to the national competition, but in the end, it failed to make it out again.
Wang Yijing felt a little sad after seeing this news. Just when she was thinking about how to comfort Su Li, a message came over: "By the way, Jingjing, have you changed since you came to Germany?"
Wang Yijing was stunned when she saw this question. Changes... She felt that she had changed a lot, but how to express it?
When she was thinking about how to respond, Su Li asked again: "Have you grown taller?"
"……what?"
"Hehe, I've grown taller again... I'm taller than Xu Aidi now, hahahaha!"
"That's no big deal! That's no big deal!" Princess Wang typed on the keyboard angrily.
