Wu Jie is completely popular now. After tonight, there should be very few people in Hong Kong who don’t know his name.

But being too popular also has its disadvantages. When the Chinese team was training at Nanhua Football Club the next day, someone would break into the training site every once in a while. Then they would rush to Wu Jie to ask for his autograph, or yell like a lunatic.

Yelled.

Under such circumstances, the Chinese team could not train with peace of mind, and even safety issues could not be guaranteed. In the end, they had to temporarily change the training venue to the University of Hong Kong through the event organizer.

The stadium in the university is a closed venue, and these crazy fans and lunatics cannot enter. Only then can the Chinese team train with peace of mind.

Su Yongshun was naturally not very satisfied with Wu Jie's participation in the New Year's Eve party and his singing on stage. He was worried that the core of the national team would focus too much on things other than football.

But he didn't know that Wu Jie just wanted to relax outside of football. He wouldn't attend too many such parties. The next time he would attend would be the Spring Festival Gala.

After his performance last night, he didn't even wait for the party to end before he went back to the hotel to rest alone.

Instead, his teammates waited until the party was over before coming back, so it was him, Mr. Wu, who was the most energetic today.

Two days later it will be the semi-finals of the World Cup qualifying group, and the Chinese team's opponent is the Hong Kong team.

During training, Su Yongshun told the team to practice more free kicks and corner kicks to prepare for the Hong Kong team's iron barrel formation.

Wu Jie also thinks this is a good idea, and he is also practicing free kicks today.

"Ajie, how did you kick the ball?"

Rong Zhixing on the side saw Wu Jie kicking a very high-quality elevator ball 30 meters away. The surprise on his face was even more serious than when he saw him singing on stage yesterday, because he had never seen an arc before.

Such a weird free kick.

"Yeah, I felt like I suddenly fell. Is this the legendary banana ball?"

Gu Guangming's eyes also widened. They had heard that there was a Zico in Brazil nicknamed "White Pele". It was said that his free kicks could arc like a banana.

But Rong Zhixing, the free kick master of the Guangdong team and the national team, has been studying for a long time and still can't figure out how to kick a banana-like arc.

This time, Wu Jie kicked three incredible elevator goals in succession from a distance of 30 meters. This immediately attracted the whole team to come over to watch, including head coach Su Yongshun, who couldn't help but come over to find out.

Lu Jianren just helped as the goalkeeper, and he experienced firsthand the horror and weirdness of this kind of free kick.

In his eyes, the football kicked by Wu Jie would fly to the top of the wall at high speed, then suddenly fall violently, and even have an S-shaped line change, that is, it would float to one side at first, then suddenly turn around in the process, and the entire flight trajectory

It is so erratic that it is naturally difficult for the goalkeeper to judge and save.

The first two goals he kicked only fell very quickly without any obvious line changes. However, Lu Jianren still couldn't even react, and the football got into a blind spot.

For the third ball, Lu Jianren finally reacted after being prepared, but this time the ball had an obvious line change on the way. It was obviously flying to the left at first, but after crossing the wall, it suddenly turned to the right.

This seriously affected his prediction, and he didn't know which way to pounce. What was even more annoying was that the football dropped significantly, and in the end it almost missed his waist.

Wu Jie himself was a little surprised by this shot. With such speed, angle, line change, and drop, it was a perfect free kick. It only took him dozens of kicks to get such a free kick.

He can usually kick the ball at a pretty good angle, and he is fast enough. It is not easy to hit the elevator ball with an obvious drop. This is really a magic kick, and any goalkeeper who encounters it will have to admit that he is unlucky.

"I don't know how to kick a banana ball. This is a technique I came up with on my own. When I first kick it out, it flies up diagonally, and then falls very fast in the middle. When I kick it well, it changes its line from left to right. At this time

Even if the goalkeeper reacts, his prediction will probably be wrong. I call it an elevator ball!"

Of course Wu Jie couldn't tell the truth, but he had to grab the title of creator. He also hoped to get some Olympic coins by inventing the "elevator ball".

"Ajie, can you do this..."

Rong Zhixing has long wanted to learn banana ball, but he has never seen it with his own eyes. He has only read some introductions in Hong Kong magazines.

Now Wu Jie's "elevator ball" feels even more magical in his heart, but he also knows that this kind of stunt is usually not spread to others, so he is embarrassed to speak out.

"No problem, I can teach it to everyone. In fact, I still have a lot of details to improve on this move, otherwise I won't be able to score in training, and I won't succeed even once in the game. If you work with me to improve it, the speed will be faster.

!”

Of course Wu Jie knew that many people wanted to learn, but they were too embarrassed to speak.

But he doesn't know how to hide anything, especially if Gu Guangming and Zhao Dayu have learned it, so that it can become another asset for them to go abroad.

Su Yongshun nodded aside. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that Wu Jie was a treasure given to the country by God.

Not only is this kid's talent different from ordinary people, but the most rare thing is that he has no selfishness.

No one would teach this kind of stunt easily, and you wouldn't even be allowed to watch from the side. They would practice it secretly in a private time and place where no one is around.

This was also the norm in the 1960s and 1970s. During this period, game live broadcast technology was underdeveloped, and it was difficult to capture the details of players' movements.

The Brazilian who invented the awesome cow tail will not do this move in training, nor will he pass this stunt to his teammates. We must wait until he retires.

This has resulted in many Brazilian players still not knowing this move, and it has also given Wu Jie the opportunity to carry it forward. He has even taught this move to his teammates.

It is estimated that after a while, Gu Guangming and Zhao Dayu will be able to perform this action in the game.

At that time, the actions that every Brazilian can do will probably become the actions that every Chinese can do.

Wu Jie didn't even hesitate this time, and taught him right away. He picked up a football at his feet and carefully explained his playing method to his teammates.

At this time, no one knew that there was a reason why Wu Jie did not hide his secrets. He was confident that not many people had truly learned these techniques, and even if they did, it would be difficult to use them in competitions. The difference between "learning" and "using" is huge.

This is especially true for things like free kicks. Decades later, any skill will no longer be a secret, but why are there still only a few true free kick masters?

Because this thing requires extremely high talent, a lot of time for boring training, and finally the qualification to take penalties in games.

Gu Guangming learned it, Zhao Dayu learned it, Zuo Shusheng also learned it...

So what?

Do you have a higher success rate than me?

Do you have enough practical experience?

Can you take away my right to take the penalty?

After they learn these skills, the only use is that they can add a lot of capital to the main competition after going to Europe, and at the same time, Wu Jie does not have to come back to play in Asian games. These boys are enough to cover the sky in the Asian fish pond with one hand.

#####

"Tmd, you played so accurately in training, but failed so badly in the game!"

In the game two days later, when Wu Jie was replaced in the 85th minute of the second half, the expression on his face was not very happy, as if he had lost.

Of course losing is impossible, the score at this moment is 4:1.

The Chinese team easily defeated the Hong Kong team at home in the "Government Stadium" that can accommodate 30,000 people. At the last moment, they gave the home team a point as a sign of fatherly love.

His dissatisfaction was that he missed four more free kick opportunities in the game. Although he still scored two goals with his head and kick, he had not scored a free kick in five consecutive games. He still felt that he was very unlucky!

This time, the Hong Kong media was able to accept the failure of their team. To put it bluntly, the level was too far apart, so there was nothing to be unwilling to do.

Two years ago, the match between the Chinese team and the Hong Kong team was on June 4th. At that time, they had the strength to defeat the Chinese team.

But now the Chinese team is completely beating Hong Kong, and it will not be difficult for South Korea and Iraq to defeat Hong Kong.

Now there are seven or eight teams in Asia and Oceania combined that are capable of defeating them. Even if the Hong Kong media is unwilling to do so, it will not be their turn to compete with the serious Asian champions.

Hong Kong fans also know that their team cannot qualify from the group stage, so they might as well support the mainland who are also Chinese.

"I want to play Iraq in the group finals because we have played against South Korea three times in three months, and I really have nothing new to say about them!"

When Wu Jie was asked after the game who he wanted to win tomorrow's match between South Korea and Iraq, he directly said something that made the South Korean media almost furious.

But because of their anger, neither the South Korean media nor the South Korean fans have any way to fight back.

Because they did lose to China three times in a row in three months, and they suffered a huge defeat every time!

In this case, how can they keep talking?

After Wu Jie finished taunting him, the Chinese team all watched the match between South Korea and Iraq the next day.

The final process and result made China very satisfied, because the two teams played 2:2 in regular time, and after 30 minutes of overtime, there was still no winner.

But after 120 minutes of play, several players on both sides suffered from cramps, and Cha Bum-gen fought too hard and even got injured.

The Chinese team was naturally overjoyed. Although the South Korean team finally defeated Iraq in a penalty shootout, three of their players suffered from cramps throughout the game, and team leader Cha Bum-gen was injured by a tackle. This was really tragic.

.

But after gloating over the misfortune, everyone still maintained a serious attitude.

This is of course due to the self-discipline card. The six main players in the team, including Wu Jie, and two young rookies have been showing an extremely professional attitude in recent months. They are very self-disciplined in training and in private, and they are also very dedicated.

.

This makes other players dare not relax. The Chinese team is not as good as North and South Korea in terms of physical fitness and continues to improve, and its physical confrontation is also better than before.

As long as this attitude continues for another year, the Chinese team will be able to surpass North and South Korea in terms of physical fitness, at least not worse than them. Their already good confrontation ability will be further improved, and they will not suffer physically when facing New Zealand.
