Chapter 26 : Coach, give him another chance.

  Both of them lost their balance at the same time during the wrestling!  

Rusty fell to the grass, rolled over several times, and his mouth was full of grass foam.

  Gu Ran used his experience of playing baseball in his previous life, and immediately used his hands and feet to maintain his body balance!

  This guy is so strong!

  The two of them shouted in their hearts at the same time!

  At this moment, Gu Ran's hands were shaking slightly due to the surge of adrenaline and excessive strength.

  At this moment, adrenaline and dopamine intertwined and merged in the surging blood!

  Just a second ago, I was a real man...

  Although it was short, it was enough!

  However, if I hadn't picked up so many special training results in strength before, and if I hadn't temporarily added the talent points I exchanged to the strength attribute, I might not be able to win this real physical confrontation...

  As Gu Ran thought this, he quickly caught up with the football and kicked the ball across the midfield.

  Rusty sat on the ground, his face full of disbelief.

  There was a sound of people hissing in the training ground.

  No one scolded Rusty anymore.

  The scene of confrontation just now was so convincing.

  Rusty, who was known as the human tank, was really defeated.

  I didn't expect that the Chinese boy who looked a little thin and low-key was actually so strong.

  Rusty's thick lips trembled, tears welled up in his eyes: "...My Susanna..."

  Coach Carter's mouth was pursed into a gloomy line, "Rusty, 300 frog jumps."

  "Light~"

  Feeling 88 points of negative emotions from Chris Dick, the system bubble is generating..."

  A full blue bubble formed at the foot of the rusty strip!

  Oh no!

  Gu Ran's eyes lit up:

  This is a skill bubble!

  I wonder what skill it is?

  If there is a reasonable collision skill, then the reasonable collision can be +2, right?

  This is equivalent to saving a precious talent point!

  Gu Ran walked towards Rusty who was sitting on the grass with great expectation.

While touching the blue bubbles with his toes, he said to the desperate Rusty: "Rusty, look at my pair of Messi-exclusive football shoes... Aren't they awesome?"

  "...Are you a devil?" Rusty was so angry at Gu Ran that he was shaking all over.

  "Light~"

  "Host has picked up the skill from ordinary bubbles: Eyelid bottle cap opening +1, today's picking progress 5/10."

  "Warm reminder: This skill cannot make the opposite sex like you, but it can gain the recognition of the same sex. This skill is somewhat dangerous. Although there is a certain chance of success, there is also a certain chance of failure. Please use it with caution."

  Gu Ran: ...

  What the hell is this?

  What kind of skill is it to open a bottle cap with your eyelids! ?

  88 points of negative emotions, and that's all you give me?

  Will you order anything else, Rusty?

  No wonder you can't find a girlfriend!

  You're practicing this bloody skill to attract girls, it's strange that you can find a girlfriend!

  You're wasting my progress!

  Hurry up and collect 10 talent points to upgrade to system rating C! Only when you reach C can you see the content of the bubble...

  Gu Ran complained madly in his heart.

  "Coach!" Rusty got up from the grass and shouted unwillingly, "Coach! Please give me another chance! Give me another chance! I was... careless again! Really! Give me another chance, I will definitely crush this Chinese kid this time!"

  Gu Ran also quickly chimed in: "Coach! Give him another chance! Give him another chance!"

  I really mean it!

  Let me get a normal skill for free!  

  Rusty looked at Gu Ran in astonishment, "What do you mean by speaking for me? Humph! Even if you speak for me, I won't be friends with you!"

  Gu Ran was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

  Coach Carter yelled, "Rusty, stop wasting time! Hurry up and do frog jumps! If you can't finish 300 before school is over this afternoon, forget about participating in the group match the day after tomorrow!"

  Rusty's face was filled with grief and indignation: "...Yes, coach."

  Rusty obediently put his hands behind his back and hopped around the court.

  Gu Ran trotted over to Carter and said, "Coach, I have passed the assessment. Can I join the school team?"

  Carter's mouth was pursed into a gloomy flat line, "No."

  Gu Ran was stunned for a moment. "But, I won both confrontation tests. Isn't that enough?"

  Carter narrowed his eyes and looked directly at Gu Ran. "Boy, do you think you can fool me? Although you have defeated the Rusty Strips twice, you are not a left back at all."

  Gu Ran's heart sank.

  Seen through?

  This coach has a really sharp eye!

  But, I just performed well, didn't I?

  Where did the coach see the flaw?

  Gu Ran calmed down and asked calmly, "Coach, is it because I didn't steal the ball? I thought this was a physical confrontation test, and I just wanted to show my confrontational ability."

  Carter smiled. "Given the confrontation you have shown, the reason that you don't have the defensive skills of stealing and tackling can be put aside. However, your real problem can be hidden from others, but not from me. From the test just now, I found that you are... left-footed."

  Gu Ran's heart suddenly sank.

  This coach is really good!

  The so-called weak foot, in football, is the non-dominant foot.

  The opposite of the weak foot is the dominant foot, which is the dominant foot.

  When passing, receiving, shooting and handling the ball, the foot that is most often used is the dominant foot, and the foot that is less often used is the non-dominant foot.

  In today's football world, most professional players have their right foot as their dominant foot and their left foot as their non-dominant foot, that is, they are left-footed.

  There are also many excellent players who are born with golden legs - such as Ronaldo and Dembele.

  There are also players who have trained both their left and right feet into golden feet through acquired efforts, such as Messi and Ronaldo.

  Of course, there are also people with two weak feet, such as Morata.

  Generally speaking, the player in the left back position should be left-footed, that is, a player who is accustomed to handling the ball with his left foot.

  And when Gu Ran was confronting Rusty just now, he clearly handled the ball with his right foot.

  Players with left instep have an inherent disadvantage when playing as left back - they cannot defend with their foot.

  Especially when facing a forward charging at high speed, it is difficult for the left-footed full-back to get in position to steal the ball in the first place. When intercepting and clearing the ball, there will be defensive loopholes due to the loss of rhythm due to the back foot.

  Therefore, most teams will not let a left-footed player serve as a left back.

  No matter how well Gu Ran performed just now, he was "sentenced to death" by Carter because of this "innate disadvantage".

  Carter sighed regretfully: "The defender I want is not just a confrontational one. I need a left-footed player like Orin who can confront, break along the sideline, and shoot from long range. Chinese boy, you have good courage, which I admire, but you are not what I need for the time being."

  If it was before his rebirth, when he heard the coach say this, Gu Ran would definitely smile awkwardly, say thank you, then silently endure the bitter taste of failure, and turn around and leave helplessly...

  However, Gu Ran is now very mature and will never give up easily!

  ——I finally returned to my youth, how could I be defeated by a few words of frustration?

  Gu Ran immediately stabilized his mentality and smiled proudly: "Coach, you are wrong."
