Chapter 7: Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon Sao Paulo
The São Paulo Youth Team is now preparing for the São Paulo Youth Cup. This is the world 's largest youth-level football game. It has gone through 31 years. The 32nd session is about to kick off. The clubs will send their youth teams to participate.
This cup has a great influence in Brazil, and the São Paulo youth team is the defending champion, and the club attaches great importance to this game.
Kaka is a substitute for the captain Harrison of the youth team, and should have been actively preparing for this cup.
However, now this cup has nothing to do with him.
Because the Rio-São Paulo tournament has begun, and the first-team lineup was stretched out after several players were injured, it was impossible to meet both the tournament and the league double-line battle at the same time. Pick players.
Alvarez is in urgent need of a midfielder, so the most important thing he wants to take away is the youth team's midfielder Harrison, but Edinho is alive and dead, there is no way, Alvarez can only Pick people from the bench.
Like the original history, Kaka's children's shoes were accidentally selected and promoted from the outer disciple of São Paulo to the inner elite, becoming a glorious first team ... substitute.
And Kaka also had a striker named Burgess. The two left in the eyes of their teammates who were envious and jealous. The next day they reported to the first team.
This time Kaka will not come back.
......
The next day, Alvarez arrived at the training ground early as usual.
São Paulo is a powerhouse in the Brazilian first division, but this season the team's situation is not good, and now the wounded soldiers are full camp, his head coach is under great pressure and arrives earlier than anyone every day.
As soon as he came in, he found that someone was already running on the training ground.
Alvarez is very strange.
The virtue of these people, or the style of most Brazilian players, he is very clear, he can participate in training every day, he is Hallelujah.
Arrive early? nonexistent.
Alvarez looked at it from a distance, but did not pass, but entered his office, first brewed a cup of coffee for himself, and then pulled out a player report from the table.
Of course he recognized Kaka.
This report is the coach's assessment of Kaka. Alvarez just glanced at it yesterday. It was originally planned to give it to his assistant coach to take a good look at it, and then develop a detailed training based on the performance of the two young players. As planned, now that Kaka has attracted his attention in this way, he is of course willing to spend some time to observe it first.
Hardworking young players are not disliked by any coach.
Kaka 's player report is very detailed. After all, he came out of his own youth training camp. He has a comprehensive grasp of all aspects of him. Rory has a lot of data and comments, a dozen pages, but Alvarez Experienced, quickly skipped some useless things, and found the part that he cared about.
"The speed of dribbling is fast, the long shot is good, the passing and defense are slightly worse ... I have just returned from injury for more than a month, and have not participated in the game for more than three months, but the training is very serious and I often practice myself ... The potential is outstanding, the focus is recommended to cultivate..."
Alvarez took coffee to the window and looked at the young man who had started to train long shots. He touched his chin with satisfaction and took a sip of it happily.
Then a face directly became bitter gourd.
Mommies, forgot to add sugar.
......
First team players are coming one after another, and a pleasant day is about to begin.
Captain Cheney took Burgess and sweaty Kaka into the locker room and clapped his hands. After seeing everyone watching, he said: "This is a newcomer from the youth team. Welcome, everyone."
The teammates behaved quite enthusiastically, and several of them applauded symbolically.
"Hello everyone, my name is Burgess, and I'm a striker." Some nervous Burgess saw the atmosphere pretty well, and secretly relaxed.
"Hello everyone, my name is Ricardo, playing midfielder," Kaka also followed, "You can also call me Kaka."
It 's all a club, even if you do n't have a friendship, you will feel a little familiar, especially Kaka, who is not very gregarious among Brazilian players. Anyone who has had contact will have an impression. Many people today Say hello friendly.
Cheney also started introducing other teammates to the two, but most of the Brazilians' names are smelly and long. Everyone is used to calling nicknames. What Kaka hears now is not necessarily their real names.
"This is left-back Renaldo."
"This is central defender Lugano."
"This is Amelie and also a central defender."
"This is striker Luis Fabiano. By the way, shortly after Luis arrived on our team, he was also a rookie."
"Fabiano?" Kaka was startled.
Looking closely, it was really that buddy.
After all, it is a character who has made a name in the top league. This face has been seen on TV before. Although the UU reading www.uukanshu.com is a lot younger, it is definitely the one who later joined the Sevilla team. Fabiano is right.
In the post-Ronaldo era Brazil No. 9, in addition to the famous Adriano, Fabiano is one of the more reliable ones. As for the others, to be honest, it is not worthy of that jersey.
Fabiano certainly does not know that he will one day be the head striker of the national team. He is now in his early twenties and has just loaned from Rennes to Sao Paulo. He can only be considered a rookie in this team, so recently Kaka, who didn't hear anything out of the window, didn't know that there was such a familiar figure in the first team.
But another star in the team, Kaka, who is also in the future, has always been concerned.
Baptista, a beast that will join the giants such as Real Madrid and Arsenal in the future, but he is now playing in the lower back, and his ability to strike on the front line has not yet been discovered.
Fabiano and Baptista, plus a kaka, the São Paulo family has collected three potential little monsters, the name of the Brazilian football kingdom is really not covered.
After a brief understanding, everyone walked out of the dressing room together, and all kinds of training equipment have been set up on the training ground. Alvarez and assistant coaches stood on the sidelines.
"Boys, come here." The assistant coach greeted him with the folder on his hand.
The players came over and lined up.
Alvarez said: "Everyone knows the newcomer Ricardo and Burgess?"
Cheney said: "Already introduced."
"That's good, don't talk nonsense, start training." I can't see that this coach is a resolute character, and I don't want to waste any time.
Warm up, technical and tactical training, tactical exercises, and then group confrontation.
