Chapter 563
"Come, come, little bet, I'm the banker today, so hurry up and place your bets."
Following Carragher's appeal, the teammates who had just finished the training session immediately surrounded him.
The few who were not surrounded were still standing on the training ground, waiting for the upcoming duel.
"I support Aurelio, the guy has always been good with his feet."
"No no no, I support Gerrard, he has a higher success rate."
"I also support the captain because he is the captain."
"I support Xabi Alonso, he feels his footwork is underrated."
"Javi Alonso is underrated? No wonder, I support Aurelio!"
……
The teammates bet one after another, and Carragher recorded it with a piece of paper and a pen.
According to the rules of the Liverpool dressing room, whoever loses will be invited to dinner, and it will be a big meal.
This can be regarded as one of the major game items in the players' daily life.
Just when everyone supported Gerrard, Aurelio and Harvey Alonso, Mascherano stepped forward and said loudly: "I support Yang Yang!"
"I also support Yang Yang." Dirk said with a smile.
Everyone was stunned.
"Are you crazy?" Carragher was very strange, because so far, no one has supported Yang Yang, okay?
If in the end, there are only two people who support Yang Yang, that is to say, if Yang Yang fails to win, these two unlucky guys will have to treat everyone in the team to a meal.
Mascherano smiled and walked away without explaining.
"Let me tell you, Jamie, have you ever seen Yang Yang take the initiative to provoke?" Kurit asked with a smile.
Carragher shook his head, as if not, but today...
"Yeah, so, you think, if he's not sure, would he do this?"
After finishing speaking, Kurit also walked away with a pen.
Carragher and many others were a little dumbfounded, and suddenly felt that what Dirk said made sense.
Seeing that many people were staring at him, Carragher shrugged, "Sorry, no changes."
Everyone gave a loud cut and pointed their middle fingers towards the vice captain.
The original tall and heroic image collapsed in an instant.
……
After the training session, Benitez and other coaching staff had to stay to clean up the field and equipment, and did not leave immediately.
They were quickly attracted by the movement on the side of the training ground.
Appointments, this kind of thing is rare in the Liverpool team, so it is very sensational.
"Better than what?" Benitez asked strangely.
Yesterdan chuckled, "It's better than a free kick."
"Free kick?" Benitez froze for a moment, which is a big disadvantage for Liverpool.
Although Aurelio's free kicks are good, but more of them are crosses from the left. For real direct free kicks, the Brazilian left back really didn't perform very well.
Gerrard and Xabi Alonso's free kicks are good, but they can't be said to be good.
Unexpectedly, just after returning to the team, Yang Yang challenged the three free kick shooters in the team. This is simply to tell everyone that he has developed the ability to take free kicks.
"Is it okay?" Benitez was a little skeptical.
To say that it has only been more than two months since he left the team. Can Yang Yang really practice a free kick?
Benitez would definitely scoff at other people's words, but Yang Yang is different. After coaching him for a year, Benitez knows better than anyone else that if this kid is really willing to work hard, he will definitely be able to practice free kicks.
"Who knows?" Yeserdan asked with a wry smile.
"Look and go." Benitez stepped forward with great interest.
……
"What are you doing with two poles?"
"Pull a rope, and it's like a human wall to jump up."
"Don't be so troublesome, look outside, it's full of people, why pretend, just put it on!"
Following the order of Gerrard and Carragher, this group of Liverpool players who watched the excitement and were not afraid of big things, in order to have a few big meals, volunteered one after another, and they were all high points in the team.
In the end, Carragher himself couldn't stand it anymore, so he quickly pushed away Crouch, who was more than two meters away, and let Daniel Agger, Dirk Dirk and others set up a wall. Otherwise, the height of more than two meters would simply increase the difficulty.
Goalkeeper Reina didn't even take off his gloves, and directly occupied the front of the goal, gearing up and eager to try.
"Pepe, don't let the water go on purpose," Carragher reminded.
Reina raised his hands high, signaling that he must go all out.
The rules of free throws are also very simple. There are five free kicks from left to right around the perimeter of the penalty area, and they are all about 25 to [-] meters away from the goal. Everyone has three chances to see who can score more direct free kicks.
Yang Yang, Gerrard, Aurelio and Harvey Alonso got together to prepare for the order of free throws.
This made Carragher and the others who were watching around a little impatient and urged for a while.
In the end, Gerrard took the lead to take the penalty.
……
The first point is a point outside the left corner of the restricted area, the farthest and most remote.
Gerrard moved his legs, smiled provocatively at Yang Yang, walked to the penalty spot, set up the ball, and slowly backed away.
There was cheering all around.
The captain of Liverpool also showed his momentum. After taking a deep breath, when Carragher blew his whistle, he rushed up quickly.
As a result, the first kick hit the wall directly.
There was a burst of laughter on the training ground.
"Nervous, a little nervous, sorry." Gerrard raised his hand in embarrassment.
Carragher covered his face, like I can't bear to look at you anymore, buddy, obviously very embarrassed for his good brother.
The quality of the second free throw was not bad. It bypassed the wall, but it was not suppressed, and it was slightly higher.
Then, with the third free kick, Gerrard hit the goal and almost scored, but Reina reacted quickly and directly saved the ball.
Gerrard was not disappointed at all when he failed to hit three consecutive free kicks, he just shook his head with a wry smile.
The hit rate of direct free kicks is not high. Generally speaking, under the pressure of an official game, if you can score one free kick with twenty or thirty free kicks, that is pretty good. If you can score one goal with ten kicks, you can rank high in European football.
Although there is no pressure in the team competition after training, and the quality of the penalty is higher, but in any case, it is impossible to hit every shot, and one in ten is considered very high, not to mention that the penalty spot is still left.
Gerrard made zero free throws, which is considered normal for individuals.
Following Gerrard, Aurelio also missed all three free throws, and none of them even faced the goal directly.
Harvey Alonso was the third to take the penalty. The quality of his free throws was the same as his personality. They were relatively calm and low-key, and the quality was not bad. He shot the goal with both feet, but failed to score.
Obviously, it is not easy to hit a free throw directly at this position.
"It's your turn!" Gerald frowned and looked at Yang Yang with interest.
As soon as he returned to the team, he launched a challenge. It was obvious that Yang Yang was practicing free kicks hard. He also wanted to know how far Yang Yang could practice. After all, there is a free kick expert in the team, which is quite a shocking thing.
Seeing that none of the three of them scored, Yang Yang grinned from ear to ear, and went straight to the penalty spot. After putting the football away, he backed away slowly.
Everyone in the audience looked at him silently, even the head coach Benitez and other members of the coaching staff also looked over.
The air on the training ground seemed to suddenly become tense.
Yang Yang suddenly turned his head and smiled at everyone, "Don't look at me like that, I will get nervous."
Everyone's originally tense nerves suddenly vented.
"Hurry up and take your penalty, what are you talking about?" Carragher scolded with a smile.
Everyone also booed one after another, and some even used the aggressive method, saying that Yang Yang was afraid or something like that.
Yang Yang turned his head, took a deep breath, and adjusted his emotions.
He watched the free throws of the three of Gerrard just now, and he had some experience.
After Carragher blew his whistle, he jumped out quickly, and the whole person rushed to the ball. After standing on his left foot, his body tilted to form an angle with the ball, and he quickly kicked out with his right foot.
In the past two months or so, he has indeed been practicing free kicks. In the Asian Cup, he also took free kicks a few times, but none of them scored, so he didn't get the slightest attention.
There is no real free kick expert in Liverpool's team, so he also wants to take this opportunity to let everyone see his progress. It is best to get the opportunity to take free kicks in the future, so that he can have more opportunities to practice.
Free kick is a skill that practice makes perfect, and the more you practice, the better you will get.
But in addition to practicing more on weekdays, you also need to hone more and try more in the game, because the pressure you face in the game is something you can't imagine in normal training anyway.
At the same time, it is necessary to take into account the opponent's goalkeeper's batting habits, as well as other factors such as the human wall.
Yang Yang deliberately asked for the last kick just now, just to observe Reina and the wall.
So this time, he took the penalty very resolutely and directly kicked a curve ball, but instead of flying to the near post, it crossed an arc and fell to the far post.
Reina judged the correct route of the ball, rushed over quickly, and flew to save the ball, but what caught him off guard was that when the ball approached the goal, there was a sudden drop in mid-air.
Whether it is Yang Yang or Gerrard and others, the free kicks taken are fast and urgent, leaving little time for the goalkeeper to react, but Yang Yang's ball suddenly fell when it was close to the goal, which caught Reina by surprise.
The Spanish goalkeeper's reaction was not unreasonable, and he made a quick shot, but he was still a step slow.
He could even feel that the ball flew in by rubbing the air outside his glove.
And when Reina landed, the ball crashed into the net behind him.
At this time, everyone on the Melwood training ground was stunned.
Direct free kick!
And it's not in the middle of the front of the restricted area, but in the very left area.
He hit it with one kick?
Not to mention the players, even Benitez and Yesterdan were shocked by Yang Yang's sudden free kick.
Did this guy really develop the ability to kick a free kick as a penalty?
