Chapter 440 Single Challenge

The new season's Galacticos is indeed very strong in terms of lineup. The forward line includes rising stars Baptista and Robinho, veterans Raul and Ronaldo, and superstar Wang Li. The midfield includes Guti, Diego, David Beckham, Pablo Garcia, and Zidane. The back line also includes Ramos, Salgado, Roberto Carlos and a series of other stars.

Even the goalkeeper is Casillas, the national goalkeeper of Spain.

It can be said that Real Madrid has a star-studded team on all three fronts. A team formed by so many stars can scare off many teams, at least in terms of formation.

However, although football is a whole, the competition between players in the team is also very cruel. In this kind of competition, the losers can only sit on the bench most of the time. In fact, there is no place for losers on the bench. No matter whether they are big-name stars or ordinary players, they all need to face this kind of competition.

With so many stars crowded into one team, one can imagine how fierce the competition within Real Madrid is.

Facts have proved that many famous stars have not been able to adapt to this kind of competition after coming to Real Madrid, such as Michael Owen. Everyone recognizes the strength of England's golden boy, but his one season in Real Madrid was a tragedy. He could not get a starting position at all, and finally could only be used as a bargaining chip for Wang Li and transferred to Chelsea.

The most famous player in Real Madrid now is of course Wang Li. No matter his net worth or strength, he has been recognized by many stars. If there were still people who doubted his strength before, after participating in the game with Tokyo Nippon TV, all the Real Madrid players who played on the field knew that, at least in the competition on the front line, it was impossible for them to beat this black-haired boy.

Fortunately, this black-haired boy will be suspended for half a year, otherwise Real Madrid's forward line, which only has a few main vacancies, will lose one vacancy.

However, there are also people who are not convinced of Wang Li's strength and are dissatisfied with his seemingly transcendent position in the team. They are Robinho and Baptista who have newly joined Real Madrid.

These two young players both became famous last season, and they also relied on their strength to successfully put on the Real Madrid jersey.

Both are young players and newcomers to Real Madrid. Although they are competitors after arriving at Real Madrid, they still come together unexpectedly. Both of them are very confident in their skills and are very dissatisfied with Wang Li's status.

As a newcomer to Real Madrid, Wang Li got along well with many big-name players in the team, but these two were excluded from the group because they were newcomers. This is normal. There are small groups in any team, between newcomers and old players, between countries, so that the members of these small groups automatically come together.

Not only that, in Real Madrid's daily training, almost all of Real Madrid's veteran players on the court obey Wang Li's commands, ask for the ball, etc. Don't underestimate this. Even if Ronaldo asks for the ball, sometimes his teammates won't pass it to him directly. But Wang Li is different. As long as he raises his hand to ask for the ball, others will pass it to him directly.

This is a kind of transcendent position in the team, and other teammates are convinced of Wang Li.

But this transcendent status makes Robinho and Baptista, who are also newcomers, feel uncomfortable. In Real Madrid, at least for now, they are still substitutes. In the usual confrontations between teams, the two usually wear yellow jerseys representing the substitute team, while Wang Li wears a red jersey.

Why would a player who was banned for half a year receive such treatment?

This situation made the two men feel indignant, so after the first day of training, they wanted to challenge Wang Li to a duel.

Seeing the excitement, a group of stars who had been doing nothing all day became excited. Many players surrounded Wang Li, Robinho and Baptista and came to the stadium. Casillas took the initiative to act as the goalkeeper, while Ronaldo found a whistle to act as the referee.

"Haha, I'm fair, don't worry."

Ronaldo blew the whistle hard and said with interest, but the look in his eyes when he looked at Robinho and the other man showed a bit of pity, yes, pity.

In the Asian Tour, Ronaldo was very clear about Wang Li's strength. At least Ronaldo knew very well that even at his peak, he could not defeat this black-haired boy head-on. And now these two "hairy boys" actually dared to challenge Wang Li, which was simply seeking abuse.

All three are forwards, so it was not easy to choose a comparison method. In the end, they decided to determine the winner by dribbling past the opponent and shooting.

Generally speaking, a real striker's defensive ability is bound to be a little worse, so it is difficult for a striker to defend against a striker. They agreed that if the winner could not be determined in this way, a free kick would be used to decide the winner.

However, let’s first compete in the ability to lead others.

Robinho was very confident about this. In the Brazilian league, his dribbling ability was talked about by many football fans, and Brazilian players were known for their footwork. In his opinion, it was unfair for him to compete with an English player in dribbling. But when he thought about the English player in front of him, whose value was almost ten times higher than his, he threw this unfairness out of the window.

At this time, the teammates around were standing on the sidelines watching the contest, and so was Baptista. He was very cautious and did not challenge first. He was thinking that he would first see the result of the competition between this oriental boy and Robinho, and see his true strength before challenging him. This way he would be mentally prepared. He knew that this black-haired boy must have some outstanding qualities to have scored so many goals last season.

Most people around were thinking, let's see how Wang Li abused Robinho. In their view, this scene was just an 'old player' teaching a new player. Now, Wang Li was regarded as an old player of Real Madrid.

As for whether Robinho will win?

"Oh my god, I would rather believe that Alan would cheat on me."

This is what the 'flirtatious' Ronaldo thinks, and most people have similar ideas, because in their opinion, this is almost impossible.

However, Robinho on the field was very calm. He didn't think that the Oriental man in front of him could compare with him in dribbling. He was very confident in this aspect.

Robinho put the ball on the grass, stretched out two fingers and said to Wang Li: "Twice, you go first or me?"

Wang Li chuckled and said, "Whatever, you go first."

Wang Li's expression was very calm, as if he didn't care about Robinho at all, just like an adult playing football with a child. This made Robinho even more angry, and he secretly said that he must teach this oriental boy a lesson.

Seeing Wang Li still standing there with an indifferent attitude, Robinho stepped on the ball on the spot, then rushed directly towards Wang Li with the ball. He didn't care whether Ronaldo blew the whistle or not. The most important thing was to teach the kid in front of him a lesson.

Facing Wang Li, Robinho looked serious. He did several bicycle kicks in a row and kept moving his feet across the ball. His fancy and quick movements made the surrounding players applaud.

Laymen watch the excitement, experts see the tricks. From the continuity of these bicycles, the stars of Real Madrid can see that the Brazilian boy's footwork is indeed outstanding. No wonder Real Madrid is willing to spend more than 20 million euros to bring him from Brazil to Spain.

Many of the Real Madrid defenders nearby seemed to have already integrated into the game, replacing themselves with Wang Li, thinking about how to defend. Facing such a continuous cycle, ordinary players would be dazzled, and thus hesitated in their actions, and were deceived by the offensive players' change of direction.

However, Wang Li still stood there, seemingly unmoved. Seeing this, almost everyone shook their heads in their hearts. Even if they believed in Wang Li's strength, that was only in offense. In terms of defense, Real Madrid's players had never seen any outstanding performance from him.

Seeing Wang Li's look, Robinho felt relieved and a smile appeared on his lips. In his opinion, this oriental boy had been completely fooled by him, so when he met Wang Li, he chose to kick the ball to the left, and he passed by Wang Li's right side.

Man-ball split

After a few bicycles, the ball was separated. This choice would make most defenders scratch their heads, because when facing bicycles, they are already dazzled, and in this case, it would be even more difficult to react.

But now on the field, it is a 1V1 contest. Robinho does not have to worry about other players snatching the ball, so this way of passing is simply a great advantage.

"Alan was passed." At that moment, everyone thought so.

But the next moment, they all opened their mouths in surprise.

Wang Li, who had been standing calmly on the court, suddenly stretched out his right leg and moved it to the right. In this movement, the ball landed directly under his feet.

Robinho did pass Wang Li, but the ball didn't get past him.

“Clatter, clatter…”

Although they were surprised, the players around him still applauded from the bottom of their hearts. Faced with Robinho's series of actions, most of the players would probably be fooled, but judging from Wang Li's reaction, he was very calm and composed, which shows that his defensive ability is still good.

Robinho didn't think so. He did a good job just now, but the ball was still intercepted. However, he didn't think it was because the black-haired boy had good defensive skills, but just luck.

After all, his movements were extremely gorgeous. If it wasn't for luck, it would be really difficult to figure out which direction he was kicking.

"You win, come here." Robinho said with a gloomy face.

"OK."

In the second round, Wang Li controlled the ball under his feet and faced Robinho's defense.

"I'm about to start, pay attention." Wang Li did not forget to remind Robinho before dribbling the ball.

"Okay, come on." Robinho still had a serious expression on his face.

Seeing such an exciting game, the teammates around also became interested. They all watched it seriously. At this time, the team's assistant coach also came to the stadium with Florentino. When the two saw the serious expressions of the players, they realized that there was actually a confrontation on the court.

"That new kid is challenging Alan?"

Florentino nodded with interest, and did not disturb the players' interest, but walked directly to the sidelines and saw the match: "Let's see what he can do."

"Alan is attacking, it won't be easy for that kid to defend him."

"Robert never did that."

On the court, Wang Li was already rushing towards Robinho with the ball.

Compared with Robinho's bicycle kick and other moves, Wang Li just dribbled the ball in a straight line, which seemed a bit reckless and had no technical skills at all.

But he is very fast.

I saw a white figure passing by on the court, the speed was so fast that people opened their mouths in disbelief. When passing in front of Robinho, Wang Li kicked the ball past the latter's side. Then he rushed directly and quickly. After dribbling the ball behind the penalty area line, facing the attacking Casillas, he jumped lightly and the ball went into the net.

Robinho had no reaction at all during the whole process.

Complete victory

"pretty"

Although Wang Li was somewhat dissatisfied with the way he used his speed to overpower Robinho, the players around him still applauded.

Wang Li didn't do anything fancy, he just used his speed to force the opponent to eat.

This is the simplest move to use. No player can match his speed. Coupled with his reaction ability, no one can steal the ball from him in a 1V1 situation.

At this time, Robinho was extremely depressed. He never thought that Wang Li would use speed to win. Originally, he thought that this contest was a contest of skills. In his opinion, this approach was a bit "foul", but no one had said before that he could not use speed to win. These were just his own thoughts and he had no way to deal with it.

"Okay, you win."

Although he was very depressed about losing the game, Robinho still said generously, and then he pointed at Baptista and said: "Man, you try it."

This was the competition in which the two challenged Wang Li. Robinho lost, and then it was Baptista's turn.

Compared to Robinho, Baptista is much calmer. After watching the competition just now, he knew that if the black-haired boy still chose to use speed to force past the opponent, he would never be able to catch up with his own speed. So if he wanted to win this game, he had to at least past the opponent himself and not lose.

However, he was the first to say, "I admit that I can't beat you in terms of speed, Alan, you go first, but you have to use your skills to beat me, only then will I be convinced."

This statement is a bit far-fetched.

For some English players, they rely on their physical strength and speed on the field, and they are definitely at a disadvantage when competing with Brazilian and Spanish players in terms of technology. However, most people around them did not show anything on their faces, but nodded in their hearts, because only a competition with outstanding technology is interesting.

After hearing this, Wang Li waved his hand indifferently and said, "It doesn't matter. Okay then."

Wang Li dribbled the ball forward slowly. This time his movements were very slow, and he did not do Robinho's eye-catching bicycle kick. He just slowly controlled the ball and kicked it forward.

When he approached Baptista, he was still like this, so Baptista immediately tried to steal the ball, but as he swung his foot, Wang Li directly dribbled the ball to the left.

However, Baptista felt relieved. He had only kicked out tentatively, and there was not much strength in his leg. He immediately retracted his right leg, stepped out with his left foot and poked again, still in a tentative motion.

Just as he imagined, the next moment, Wang Li pulled back and pushed the ball to the right again. This time, Baptista felt more at ease. After two consecutive actions, he believed that if he kicked quickly this time, the black-haired boy in front of him would not be able to react.

Often when a forward passes the ball, it is a psychological contest between him and the defensive player, with some moves being real and some fake, and it depends on who can persist long enough to deceive the other player.

With this mentality, Baptista directly kicked the ball. He felt that he would be able to grab the ball this time. But at the same time, Wang Li flicked the ball to the left, easily passed him, and headed towards the goal.

Seeing this scene, Casillas simply stood in front of the goal and did not move. He knew that he would not be able to defend against Wang Li's one-on-one shot.

Wang Li stopped the ball directly in the small penalty area, did not continue to shoot, turned around and said: "It's your turn."

This time, Wang Li passed Baptista by using his reaction speed. In this comfortable modern society, although his alertness is much lower than before, he has been baptized by the martial arts era. After cultivating the Xiao Wuxiang Gong, in terms of reaction speed, I am afraid that ordinary players will never be able to surpass him.

No matter whether it was a real move or a fake move, he treated it as a real move. As long as he always dunked the ball at the first opportunity, a single defender would never be able to steal the ball from him.

This may sound a bit overbearing, but isn't reaction speed also a kind of skill?

In this kind of one-on-one, playful confrontation between teammates, he would not use any fancy moves, but these simple moves were enough.

Baptista showed a wry smile on his face, he gave Wang Li a thumbs up and took the football that rolled over.

The second round with Baptista undoubtedly ended with Wang Li's victory. In the 1V1 duel, the "shadow-like leg" was simply a bug. No matter what the opponent's player did, as long as Wang Li used this trick, it was really easy to steal the ball.

"This kid has really good skills." At this time, Luxemburg also walked to the side of the court and said to Florentino.

"yes."

Hearing this, Florentino smiled. In this summer, he was under a lot of pressure because of Wang Li's transfer, but now, Wang Li has shown his personal ability that surpasses that of ordinary stars, which makes him very pleased and relieved.

"It's a pity...he can't play in the first half of the league."

Speaking of this, Luxemburg was a little depressed. Any head coach would feel depressed if he had such a player who could not be used.

"It doesn't matter. As long as we can maintain the team's performance in the first half of the season, I think when he can play, it will be our time to explode." Florentino said solemnly. He was already dissatisfied with the failure of last season, and he hoped that the middle-aged man in front of him could give him a guarantee.

"Don't worry, sir. I will keep the team's performance stable."

"I hope so."
