077. The First Tutor(2)

Team 2's top team member, Fran, was showing a funny expression that you would only see in a cartoon.

'My presence has completely disappeared…'

Only then did Fran realize.

The truth is that when you don't have tactics, you are the one who can't do anything.

All of this happened because there was no strategy in place.

Position destroyed.

Woo Ho-young escaped the fence and ran wild, and because of that, Fran was reduced to a folding screen.

And I ended up showing it to Chairman Perez.

'It's ruined. It's ruined. I would have been labeled as someone who couldn't do anything.'

Even though the team scored the first goal, Fran blamed himself and lowered his head.

On the contrary, there was a player in Team 1 who was not upset even though he conceded a goal.

'oh my god.'

It was Marcos, a fan of Hoyoung Woo.

As a soccer player, he made a very fatal mistake, but other emotions took precedence over regret or anger.

Shock.

Hoyoung Woo only started learning the basics of Spanish youth soccer today.

However, he showed off his skills by playing his own game as if that didn't matter.

'okay! That's Woo Ho-young!'

In fact, Marcos was a boy born into a soccer family.

His grandfather, Marcos Alonso Imaz, played for Real Madrid and his father, Marcos Alonso Peña, played for Barcelona.

And a generation later, the boy Marcos was now learning soccer at Real Madrid.

He grew up being told that he was a soccer prodigy because he inherited his blood from a young age, but at some point, his skills stagnated and he began to lose interest in soccer.

Then I met Hoyoung on TV.

2005 U17 Peru World Cup.

As I watched Hoyoung show off his incredible play on that stage, my passion began to revive again.

And finally today.

I met that boy.

I was disappointed at first, but not at all now.

Marcos' eyes shined brightly.

'I can't wait to run with you.'

At the same time, enthusiasm burned.

'I'll definitely try to stop it.'

Marcos was not the only one who had such thoughts.

Likewise, other team 1 players also showed strong will.

To stop Woo Ho-young.

The will to show off one's presence by blocking Woo Ho-young.

When 10 minutes had passed, team 1 had their first chance in a while.

The start was Marcos' breakthrough on the left flank.

"get out!"

Percussion!

Despite his stocky physique, his running speed was quite fast.

The speed came from strong muscles built through sweat and blood.

'They're all here.'

Marcos' feet stopped.

He kept the ball under his feet and looked ahead.

The attacking midfielder and striker of the same team were shaking up the defenses of both teams with an appropriate gap between them.

A very threatening situation no matter where you put it.

'The area outside the penalty area is the most dangerous.'

Observation judgment.

Marcos, unusual for a young man, completed these two tasks very quickly.

Now all that's left is action.

I was planning to kick the cross with my left foot.

His cross was so good that the technical coach of the Juvenil B team, who is known for being harsh in his evaluations, recognized it.

So, without delay, I boldly put out my left foot.

But a variable arose.

'shit.'

Woo Ho-young, who was on the front line, has already returned and is putting pressure on Marcos.

It was a ridiculous thing for Marcos.

It was definitely on the other side just a second ago, so it was surprising how long ago it got here.

Because of this, Marcos lost his cross timing and ended up sending a pass to the central midfielder on the right.

If the cross was passed like this, there was a high possibility that it would hit Woo Ho-young's foot and be sent out on the touchline.

The decision was to put aside one move and look for the next opportunity.

That was correct according to common sense.

However, considering Hoyoung's specialty, that was an absurdly foolish judgment.

"…ah!"

Marcos belatedly realized that his actions were wrong, but the situation had already become serious.

Okay.

As soon as Marcos' eyes turned, Hoyoung's legs headed toward the ball.

A sliding tackle that intercepts the ball moving to the right.

It was a successful pass blocking based on excellent quickness and insight.

widely!

As soon as the ball touched Hoyoung's toes, the ball broke off and bounced high into the air with no place to go.

If there was ever a chance for Marcos to make amends, it was now.

'That's mine.'

Marcos is 180 cm tall.

Immediately after, Hoyoung got up from his seat and joined the ball competition, but this time he was really confident.

But that also didn't go as planned.

"Tsk."

Hoyoung's shoulder, which rose high in the sky, violently pushed Marcos away.

It was not a move to win an air ball.

Hoyoung's intention was to focus on obstruction rather than ball competition and not give the ball to Marcos.

Marcos couldn't tell if this was improvisation or an instinct born of soccer intelligence, but this one thing was certain.

'it's crazy.'

It was not praise, but awe.

In the end, the aerial ball that no one was able to catch fell to the floor.

Defenders from both teams ran over and kicked it away.

All of this happened in less than 5 seconds.

Marcos' scalp felt itchy.

For a moment, you may feel like you are dealing with an animal.

The sight of Woo Ho-young just now was like watching the king of beasts snatching up a gazelle in the savannah.

Marcos, who had always admired Hoyoung, could not let this moment pass by.

Because he felt it was an art, not defense.

"under! "You're really good at it."

I meant it.

Perhaps the players who experienced Maradona's play 30 years ago felt this way?

World-class players said this when looking at Maradona.

Even if you run for a million years, you won't even come close to him.

Those words touched Marcos deeply right now.

'This is not it. Even if I run for a million years, I won't be able to do this.'

From that moment on, Marcos' respect for Hoyoung soared through the roof.

Moreover, it did not end there.

The ball, which was passed back to the second team, was already at Hoyoung's feet.

Percussion!

The location where the pass was received was about 40 meters away from the gate.

Hoyoung attempted to break through without hesitating even for 0.1 second.

Team 1's center back Moha ran in front of them and ran at full speed, blocking the road.

It was immediately after that that Hoyoung's eyes changed sharply.

It was at that moment that his talent stood out once again.

"…!"

Marseille turn.

Like all skill moves, the Marseille Turn is not something that can be used just at any time.

The Marseille turn shows its true power mainly when the defense is turned away or when it breaks the balance of the opponent's defense while running together.

And that's the situation right now.

Hoyoung's smoothly connected movements completely destroyed Moha's sense of balance.

"evil!"

One person with this.

Next was Joaquin, the last defender who clung to the side.

Take a peek.

Hoyoung glanced to the right, and his hair was thrown back for a moment.

Taaagh!

It was explosive hitting and running.

The speed, which only a track and field athlete could not match, made Joaquin feel despair.

Then the last one.

'one person.'

Goalkeeper Dario, who was left alone with Hoyoung in the penalty box, lowered his waist and lowered his center of gravity.

But only 0.5 seconds.

Hoyoung took a short step and kicked accurately and quickly.

Slosh!

This time too, the stable goal-scoring ability worked without hesitation.

It was a multiple goal.

and.

"like!"

It was the first ceremony in Spain.

"Heulheul."

A burst of laughter erupted from the audience.

It was Perez who attended the Juvenil team match prior to Real Madrid's New Year's event.

"This is the best business in the winter market."

The biggest thing that Chairman Perez considered when recruiting a player was 'how cool the player looks when wearing a white uniform' and 'how much uniform sales will increase as a result.'

Those were the reasons why Hoyoung was recruited so quickly.

But now I see that Hoyoung's skills are much better than his looks.

Of course, I knew before that his skills were incredible.

Since I had been receiving Antonio's reports consistently, I had seen several times how great Hoyoung's skills were.

But what on earth does that flexibility and explosive power mean?

'I can't believe it's the first day of training.'

I couldn't believe it, but Hoyoung was actually doing that.

"Heulheul."

Perez laughed so hard that he had to adjust his slightly crooked glasses.

"What a kid."

"ha ha ha. "I agree."

Mitchell shook his head with his gaze straight ahead.

The current score is 3-0.

It was as if the game had already ended with the victory of both teams, but I couldn't take my eyes off the field for even a moment.

This is because I felt like I would miss Woo Ho-young's performance.

Fortunately, the game was already being recorded by another staff member.

If you use it as a youth marketing tool, it will be the icing on the cake.

As I was watching the game with such fascination, the coach's whistle suddenly sounded on the field.

No matter how much it was a practice match, it ended so lamely.

"He proved his worth with a hat trick from the first practice game on the first day."

It was a fantastic start to rewriting the history of Real Madrid.

At this, Chairman Perez suddenly had this thought.

"Francisco said that."

"You mean the one who discovered Maradona?"

Nod.

Perez continued, recalling old memories.

"When Maradona came to the team for a tryout, the kid was only 8 years old, but he played soccer better than adults. That's why they pushed for recruitment right away. But that's how I feel right now."

"So do i. Hoyoung Woo's talent has already been proven at the U17 World Cup. What remains is whether you can preserve that skill into the professional world."

"It's possible."

"Do you think so?"

"Isn't he handsome? In the first place, good-looking players are valued for their looks. "People play the way they want to play."

With those words, Perez stood up as if he had seen everything.

"I want to go."

"It's almost time for the event. Oh, and who would suit it? "Hoyoung's tutor."

"I need to know what kind of player the chairman wants Hoyoung to be."

"I hope I become a player who has never existed in history."

"Then it would be a good idea to try each player one by one."

"Heulheul." "Just kidding."

Perez shook his shoulders and continued.

"Then let's do it like this. The first team players have decided to attend the event today, but who better to ask first?"

"What do you think about the players who are about to retire? For example, Zidane."

"gibberish. I won't send Zidane. He's so energetic, but he has three more years to run. "We can sell 1 million more uniforms."

Half joking, half serious.

Perez left the training ground with a smile on his face.

At the same time, I drew up a grand plan in my head.

Real Madrid has 138 million soccer fans around the world.

Real Madrid is the second most popular club in Asia after Manchester United.

And Asian Woo Ho-young.

I thought that mixing these three things would create an interesting picture.

This is a painting that no one has ever completed.

Therefore, Hoyoung's growth and the tutoring that would greatly aid in that growth were very important.

President Florentino Perez's feet became faster.
