Chapter 46 Beckham's Cross
The cross is unreliable, which is another major weakness exposed by Yang Yang in the amateur game.
Both John Repp and the Ajax people have revealed this to Yang Yang.
They all believe that if Yang Yang's crossing ability reaches the basic pass line, with his breakthrough ability and running ability on the wing, Almere's offensive firepower will definitely skyrocket, and it may not be impossible to beat Ajax.
Crossing this skill looks simple, but in fact it is very difficult.
It's not that Yang Yang himself has practiced. He even imitated the crossing footwork of famous players, but with little success. A very important reason lies in the footwork, hitting parts, and even body posture when crossing.
Soccer skills are often like this. It looks simple, but it is easy to learn and difficult to master. Especially in the state of sports, when the ball is running at high speed, how to kick a high-level cross is undoubtedly extremely difficult.
But for Yang Yang, this is the most urgent problem he needs to solve at present.
Once he can improve his crossing ability as soon as possible, this will greatly increase his cost of gaining a foothold in the Ajax youth team.
Sharp wing breakthroughs and reliable crosses will become his core competitiveness in the next two to three years.
Just like Eindhoven's Robben, with lightning speed and sharp wing breakthrough, it is said that he is also working hard on crossing from the left.
Van der Meyde, who just transferred from Ajax to Inter Milan, is also very sharp in wing breakthroughs, and he is also working hard on crosses.
Of course, these two stars can gain a foothold in the Eredivisie and can be favored by European giants. At least the cross is very reliable.
On the other hand, Yang Yang, his current crosses are still very unreliable.
After analyzing and discussing with Lao Bing, Yang Yang did not hesitate to choose the cross for the second star skill.
"Then there is nothing to choose, the best choice for crosses from the right is him."
As soon as Lao Bing finished speaking, the lights and shadows of the stars around the super training field suddenly became dim again, only Beckham's figure became brighter and brighter, and finally turned into a lightning bolt, directly hitting Yang Yang's forehead.
In an instant, all the kicks from Beckham's career were played frame by frame in Yang Yang's mind like a video. It seemed very long, but it seemed to be in an instant.
When Yang Yang woke up, Beckham was already standing on the right side of the training ground.
"Beckham's crosses are generally divided into two categories, one is the long pass."
As soon as Lao Bing's voice fell, the stars in the training field quickly stepped out. After only two small steps, he kicked the ball directly. After the ball crossed a parabola, it landed precisely in the designated landing area, almost zero error.
This is definitely the highest quality cross that Beckham has been able to throw.
Yang Yang watched Beckham's free throw from a close distance. Although he only watched it once, he still found many details.
For example, in Beckham's previous run-up, the part of the free throw was the instep, and the body posture was a bit strange, especially the 45-degree oblique angle between the supporting heel and the ball, and the hands were stretched wide.
This kind of long pass has no arc, but the speed is very fast, and the ball can be pressed very low.
"The second type is arc crosses."
As soon as Lao Bing finished speaking, he saw the lights and shadows of the stars on the training field and the ball returned to their original places.
Beckham still only took two steps from the run-up and quickly kicked the ball. There was only a bang, and the ball quickly flew out of his right foot with a violent spin. At first, it seemed to fly directly to the goal, but soon it drew an arc and turned to the outside of the goal. Finally, it landed in the predetermined area with unbelievable precision.
Yang Yang admired such exquisite footwork and high-level crossing quality.
He has played the ball himself, and he has worked hard to practice crosses, so he knows how difficult it is to make such a high-level cross.
From the rehearsal process of the star light and shadow just now, Yang Yang once again saw some clues.
The approach and body posture are similar, but the footwork and the hitting position are different. This time, Beckham used the inside of his foot.
Compared with the long pass, the speed of the curve pass is slightly slower, but it is strongly misleading. It is obviously intended to confuse the goalkeeper and the defender and make them misjudge when defending.
"Beckham's crossing skills generally do not fall into these two categories. If you can thoroughly understand these two categories and practice them proficiently, then as your crossing ability improves, it will be of great benefit to you in practicing long passes and free kicks in the future."
Football skills are also analogous, many things are interrelated, such as crosses, long passes and free kicks.
Yang Yang knew in his heart that if he wanted to play well on the wing, then a long pass with a wide range of transfer was also necessary. This is a sharp weapon to pull the opponent's defense on the court. Mastering a wide range of long pass transfer is equivalent to being able to transfer the ball from one side to the other at any time, catching the opponent by surprise.
As for free kicks, this should be regarded as an additional question.
Later, Lao Bing asked Yang Yang to watch the demonstration of the light and shadow of the stars repeatedly, emphasizing some important links of "Beckham's cross", which is mainly divided into two parts: internal and external.
In terms of himself, Yang Yang has observed a lot just now, such as run-up, how many steps to run, the distance of each step, the distance between the supporting foot and the ball, the inclination of the body, the use of footwork, the exertion of muscles, etc. There are many details that need to be paid attention to.
To put it simply, Yang Yang has to find out a set of crossing moves that suits him best through continuous hard training.
Yang Yang was not surprised by this, just like when he first learned [Ronaldo's Assault], Lao Bing told him more than once that he had to find his own pace.
Facts have proved that what is blindly imitated from others may not necessarily be the most suitable for you.
Ronaldo's assault is so, so is Beckham's cross.
External factors also need to be paid attention to.
The situation on the court is changing rapidly, and the ball cannot stand still for you to kick. Whether it is an offensive teammate or a defensive enemy, it is impossible to stop and wait for your pass, so this requires a good vision and anticipation ability. Be able to observe the running position and speed of your teammates in advance, and send the pass to the most suitable position for them to exert their strength in advance.
In addition, there must be an excellent sense of distance.
Whether it is a cross or a long pass, you need to have an excellent sense of distance. You can clearly judge the distance at the moment of passing the ball, and use your strength to ensure that the ball can accurately land on your intended area.
Yang Yang still remembers that when the media and fans commented on Beckham's crossing ability, he joked that as long as he stood still in front of the goal, Beckham could take the ball out, hit your head and bounce into the goal.
This shows how difficult it is to really learn Beckham's cross.
In addition to the above-mentioned internal and external factors, there is also an indispensable element, that is, practice.
Not only footwork, muscle power, body posture, etc. need repeated training, but also the judgment of distance and the size of force also need repeated practice to master.
The famous writer Gladwell put forward the [-]-hour rule in the book "Alien", which is also applicable to football.
Of course, the so-called [-] hours is just a generalization. Talented players may only need [-] hours, while some less talented players need more than [-] hours.
Yang Yang also doesn't know whether his talent is good or bad, these are not important to him, the only thing he knows is that no matter good or bad talent, it needs training.
Now he has identified a goal and keeps practicing until he is satisfied.
At the same time, Lao Bing also adjusted Yang Yang's training program.
For example, in the program of training against the wall during the day, the 20-meter training has become a pass training. It is required that after the ball rebounds, the first kick must be calculated where the ball will stop, and then the pass must be followed immediately, and it must be carried out while the ball is in motion.
The purpose of doing this is to simulate the real game scene as much as possible, and this is just the beginning, and then we need to practice stopping at different positions, so that Yang Yang can learn to adapt to crosses in different situations.
In the super training ground, Lao Bing also added a training for Yang Yang, virtualizing a Beckham to practice crosses with him.
20 meters is just a distance for beginners. After Yang Yang masters it, he will gradually increase the distance.
As for the lack of strength in his right foot that Yang Yang was worried about, Laobing thinks that it is not a problem. He believes that the main problem of lack of strength lies in exerting force. In the final analysis, the whole set of technical movements in the pass is not well connected, and he has not been able to exert his true strength.
…………
…………
In the next few days, Yang Yang returned to the state before the amateur competition.
Every night when he sleeps, he will train in the super training ground under the guidance of Lao Bing, mainly training the two star skills of [Ronaldo's assault] and [Beckham's cross], as well as a series of other basic training items.
During the day, except for meals and lunch breaks, he basically spends his time practicing hard in the skate park.
Lao Bing arranges all the training items very reasonably, combining work and rest, so that although Yang Yang's training is a bit boring, it will not be too tiring. Occasionally, he will use the lunch break to adjust and change the training items in the afternoon according to Yang Yang's training situation in the morning.
The days are spent in this day-to-day hard training.
During this period, Eindhoven’s scout Karas Van Baalen visited the Chinese restaurant once, but Yang Yang was not there, but his uncle Shen Ming tactfully rejected Van Baalen’s invitation to Yang Yang to join Eindhoven, saying that Yang Yang had decided to join Ajax.
Karas van Baalen deeply regretted this. In the afternoon, PSV’s chief scout, Pete Dewisser, called the Chinese restaurant in person, expressing that PSV was willing to directly sign a professional contract with Yang Yang, and gave him a handsome salary, promising to let him enter the first team within three years.
Yang Yang will not turn 17 until October, and will be 19 three years later. Eindhoven can make such a promise, which is enough to prove their sincerity, but Shen Ming still declined on behalf of Yang Yang, thanking Eindhoven for their favor. Yang Yang has only one goal at present, and that is Ajax, playing under the command of his idol Van Basten.
He has confidence in himself, as long as he continues to work hard and improve, he will definitely be able to make his debut in the Ajax first team within three years.
