Before training, Matello took Su Dong to the team infirmary for a simple physical examination.

   This was originally a routine, but Su Dong was a little surprised when he checked his height.

   When he joined the team, he measured 1.83 meters tall, but this time he measured it a little longer, reaching 1.86 meters, which surprised Su Dong.

   "I'm only sixteen years old. It's when I am growing up. I usually eat more. I believe it can exceed 1.9 meters." The team doctor smiled and encouraged.

   The body of a professional player is still very important. Strength and muscles can be exercised by the day after tomorrow, but height cannot be helped.

  Even in the Iberian Peninsula, Portugal and Spain, where technology is important for youth training, physical fitness is also an important selection condition. Every year, many young players are removed because they are not up to the standard.

   There is a 22-year-old player in the Portuguese Athletic Club. He failed and was kicked out by Benfica.

   Su Dong is a little worried, worried that if he continues to grow taller, will it affect his speed and flexibility?

   Of course, this is not absolute.

  ……

  The training of the first team is different from that of the youth team. It is more intense and more compact.

   Although it is only a semi-professional team, the training is still the standard ninety minutes.

   This is the same as a football game, the purpose is to let the players form a habit of staying focused as much as possible for ninety minutes.

   There are also some coaches who prefer one hundred and twenty minutes, depending on the preference of the head coach.

   The head coach of the Portuguese Athletic Club is a middle-aged man in his fifties named Antonio Pereira. It is said that he has no professional football history before. The Portuguese Athletic Club is also the first team he coached.

   There is a saying in the team that in the next two years, Matello will replace Pereira as the team's head coach.

   This kind of thing is also normal.

   Su Dong is currently a semi-professional player in the middle and lower reaches of the level. It is no problem to keep up with the training of the first team. According to him, some substitute players in the team are not as good as him.

   But in the subsequent team training, Su Dong exposed a lot of problems.

   The first is his physical confrontation.

  The lower the league, the more intense the physical confrontation and the rougher the movements.

   Su Dong's body itself is relatively weak. It is normal for him to suffer from an adult when he is sixteen years old.

Another point is that he is a newcomer. Other teammates have experienced a relatively complete pre-season preparations. Some have even played in the team for several years. They have a better understanding of each other, and Su Dong seems a little out of place on the court. .

   Two major factors caused Su Dong to perform poorly in the first training session, and even he himself was a little disappointed.

   It was Captain Matello, who came over to comfort him as soon as he trained.

   "It doesn't matter, it was the same at the beginning. Every newcomer needs a little time to integrate into the new environment. Slowly, we all have confidence in you." The captain patted Su Dong on the shoulder and encouraged.

   Su Dong nodded silently, he knew the truth, but he felt uncomfortable.

   "The coaching staff has specially arranged special training for you. Starting today, you have to stay and practice for an additional hour. I will be responsible."

   Su Dong couldn’t ask for it, and asked with concern: "What is the content?"

"Shooting, holding the ball with the back of the ball, receiving wing passes, etc., the forwards need to practice, you have to practice." After Matello finished, he seemed to be afraid that Su Dong would resist, and explained, "Trust me, These trainings will definitely help you."

   Su Dong smiled slightly. Someone accompanies him to practice. This is tantamount to helping him regain the king value. Good thing.

  ……

   After a 90-minute training session, Su Dong saved more than five hundred penalty kicks, which is really inconspicuous, and his efficiency is far not as fast as the duel with Ronnie.

   And the subsequent additional training, each matchup only gave Su Dong a 30 penalty king value, which is equally inconspicuous.

   However, no matter how small a mosquito is, it is meat.

   Accumulate less and make more, gather sand to form a tower, Su Dong won't pick it.

At first Matello was worried that Su Dong would be as playful as other young players and resisted additional training. Even if Su Dong agreed, he was afraid that he was just perfunctory, but when the additional training started, he realized that Su Dong was really doing his best. Practicing.

   After discovering this, Matello became more serious in teaching.

   hits the door directly after receiving a side pass. This seems to be very simple in the live TV broadcast, but in fact it is very difficult.

   Su Dong has not yet reached this level, he needs to stop the ball before playing.

   But even so, his stoppage is still a big test, especially in the face of the experienced captain Matello.

This is not the least famous in Portuguese football, and even the fans of Belérences have long forgotten about this youth player who has played only nine times. When defending Sudong from close range, he always sealed him. There is no chance.

   "Your actions are too obvious, so easy to guess."

   "This won't work. Before you kick, the opponent's goalkeeper already knows that you want to shoot there."

   "Also, there are no defensive players right now. If there are defensive players to cooperate with the goalkeeper, you won't have any chance to kick."

   "Professional teams and youth teams are two completely different worlds. Even if we are only a third-level league, the strength of the opponents is still not to be underestimated. Some players are fully equipped with the standards of the Portuguese League and even the Portuguese Super League."

   Although he is a goalkeeper, Matello is also a professional team's official youth training background. He has very rich experience and is studying coaching courses. Therefore, he will specifically guide Su Dong's shooting skills.

   When, what kind of pass to face, what kind of shooting technique to adopt, this is also a knowledge.

   Especially on the court, the timing is fleeting, there is no time for the forward to think about it, it must be the most instinctive reaction.

   In addition, Matello, as a goalkeeper, also told Su Dong about the goalkeeper mentality and habits, as well as the characteristics of some strikers he had encountered.

   All of these are very fresh and benefited a lot from Su Dong, who has just come into contact with the adult team.

  …………

  …………

   In the center of Lisbon, there is a very famous seafood restaurant whose name is also world-famous, called Romario.

   But don’t get me wrong, this has nothing to do with Brazilian superstar Romario.

   This restaurant is so famous that not only the locals in Lisbon are in droves, but also the tourists.

   So Dong asked Ronnie to have dinner with Jose Semedo, and he chose this restaurant.

   Breaded Crab and Tiger Shrimp are the signature dishes of this restaurant, one for each person, and some special snacks, all of which are seasonal seafood, which was just caught today. They are especially fresh and delicious.

  Of course, the price is not cheap.

   Three people have all you can eat, and the bill is 71 euros.

   "If it weren't for your treat, I wouldn't be willing to come to such a place to eat if I was killed." Jose Semedo said in a speechless voice.

   He is also from the bottom. The whole family is counting on him to be a professional player. It is best to become a player in the Portuguese Super League, which can help their family get rid of poverty.

   Su Dong didn't care much about his money. It wasn't that he was lavish, but that he cared more about his friendship with Ronnie and Semedo. After all, his most important top priority now is to improve his own strength.

   These two are the cheaters for him to win the game.

"After eating your meal, I should give you something back." Ronnie smiled and took out three tickets from his pocket, swayed them in front of Su Dong, and said with a smile: "I got it with difficulty. Yes, the tickets for the opening match of the Portuguese Premier League this weekend, don’t you see?"

   "Go, of course." Su Dong didn't even think about it.

   It was the opening match of the Portuguese Super League, the focus of the Lisbon Sporting home match against Porto.

   During the afternoon training, the teammates of the Portuguese Athletic Club were still complaining about the difficulty of getting a ticket and the scalper's price increase.

   Jose Semedo certainly wants to go, what a rare opportunity this is.

   "I heard that Quaresma performed well in the first team. Big Mpenza will be sent away. Will he play?" Semedo asked.

   Ronny heard the name Quaresma, his face obviously turned ugly, and he curled his lips, "Who knows?"

Semedo smiled at Su Dong and explained: "He and Quaresma are rivals. The two people, and one named Edgar Marcelino, both said that they are the best of the Sporting Lisbon youth team. Strong player."

   Su Dong had heard of Quaresma in the newspaper, and was described by the media as the most outstanding genius under the age of twenty in Portugal. Many people said that he was Figo II.

   Unexpectedly, Ronnie was actually competing with Quaresma, which was really powerful.

   "Let me tell you, he is two years older than me. When I get older, I will step on him." Ronnie said unconvincedly.

   He was obviously upset that Quaresma entered the first team earlier than him.

   Jose Semedo reminded him with a smile, UU reading www. uukanshu.com "Actually, he is only one year, three months and a few days older than you."

   "Get out!" Ronnie was about to fight after chasing.

  Semedo, of course, would not sit and wait for death. He ran away like flying a long time ago, and shouted at them from a distance, saying that he had arranged an appointment with a beautiful girl to go to the Wan Guo Park and was leaving first.

   Watching Semedo go away, Ronnie smiled and shook his head, and said to Su Dong: "Actually, he is a very good friend with good talent, but he is too lazy."

   Su Dong didn't know Semedo, but he was a little lazy after contacting him several times.

   "His talent is actually very high. He joined me in Sporting Lisbon at the same time. We are teammates, but it didn't take long for him to be retired once because of his poor training performance. He returned after more than a year, but it is still the case."

Having said this, Ronnie laughed again, "He must have dated Hugo Pina, the kid from the Belém district of Lisbon has set a record for the transfer fee of Sporting Lisbon players under the age of 16. 300,000 euros, used to be the most dazzling player in our team, but now..."

   Needless to say, not only Quaresma and Marcelino who entered the first team, but Ronnie overpowered him a lot.

"In these years in Sporting Lisbon, I have learned one thing, that is, the best and top talent may not necessarily be the best player. Football is very fair. As long as you work hard and work hard, it must be I can give you back."

   Ronnie suddenly gave him such a big reason, Su Dong was stunned, feeling a bit strange.

   But soon, the familiar Ronnie returned.

   "That's why I'm so sure, I can definitely beat Quaresma."

   At this moment, the eyes of the boy from Madeira were extremely firm.
