Chapter 10

Sulzak did not leave Monaco. Even after witnessing Afei's subsequent performance, Sulzak's heart was like a blazing fire of hope, eager to get back the glory of his second goalkeeper.

The root cause of all this can be traced back to the team's competition. In the team's first match, Afei's performance was terrible, which was completely different from the trial training more than a month ago.

In the past trial training, although A Fei was not amazing, he was like an old monk in the game. He was absorbed and focused to the palpitation, and his performance was as steady as Mount Tai. There was no mistake after a game.

However, now, Afei is like a rebirth, just like two people. Afei, who stood in the goalkeeper's position, was not only absent-minded, but also kept making mistakes. Although his save and reaction have made great progress compared with the past, he is like a bird with broken wings, losing the most critical focus and stability of a player.

In the first training match, Afei became the goalkeeper of the substitute side, and Ranieri ingeniously let Raj and Medjani form a copper-walled defense line and stood in front of Afei. Unfortunately, all this was in vain.

Because when A Fei stood in the position of the goalkeeper, he realized that everything in his eyes had become completely different. The positions of the players on both sides and the trajectory of the ball seemed to be clearly visible in his field of vision, like a vivid picture.

Afei was dumbfounded, as if he had been struck by lightning, because it was a wonder he had never witnessed. People's vision seemed to be bound by an invisible barrier, but for a player, vision was as crucial as a beacon of life.

However, Afei's surprise was just a prelude. As the game progressed, he realized that he could not only clearly understand many details that he could not reach in the past, but also understand the mistakes in his teammates' positions and the flaws in defense, and even knew a little about the opponent's offensive path.

Every moment on the court is like a torrent that pours into your mind through your own eyes, and then judges the vein between attack and defense.

"This is the gift brought by the lifting of restrictions," the voice of the system sounded like a yellow bell in Afei's mind at the right time.

This sudden change caught Afei off guard, not to mot alone the changes brought about by the lifting of restrictions. As the game deepened, A Fei realized that his worldview seemed to collapse in an instant. This earth-shattering change made him at a loss on the field.

"Why is it like this?" A Fei thought to himself in his heart.

"Before the door god glove system is not bound to the soul, the dominant is the system that both sides attach to the broken glove. You don't need to judge for yourself. However, with the binding of the soul, the master-slave relationship has changed dramatically. At this moment, you are the master, and the system is only responsible for assisting," the system gave a detailed explanation.

The impact of the dramatic change in the master-slave relationship is subversive. A Fei had not noticed it before because what he was standing in front of him was not real teammates and opponents, nor real games, so he could not understand this change.

But the training competition is very different. Although there is still a big difference compared with the real competition, it is also enough for Afei to notice the change of master and servas.

Previously, although Afei had his own judgment, the system was always one step faster. Afei only needed to follow his feelings and make rescue actions. However, now, Afei needs to rely on his own judgment and put it into action.

To put it more easily, everything before Afei was systematic. After the Soul Peninsula, he needed to transform the systematic things into what truly belonged to him.

It takes time for a team to adjust and adapt to change tactics. What's more, A Fei's whole master-slate relationship is now reversed, so A Fei's performance is also reasonable.

However, others don't know what Afei is going through, such as the head coach Ranieri. Under the influence of Pelizaro, the Italian head teacher has more expectations for Afei. And the previous training also showed Ranieri Afei's efforts.

However, with the progress of the training competition, Ranieri's expectations gradually turned into disappointment. However, Ranieri would never make a conclusion about a player just because of a game.

Unfortunately, Afei's next performance still can't satisfy Ranielli. After two training matches, Monaco ushered in the first friendly match.

Afei was like a tiger and got a chance at halftime. In the forty-five minutes of his debut, Monaco was like a sheep, conceding a goal, and it was the only goal in the whole game.

Monaco's first friendly opponent was weak, like a candle in the wind. He belonged to a semi-professional team. Ranieri racked his brains to choose a friendly opponent.

The first opponent is a semi-professional, the second opponent is a real professional team, the third opponent is from the French Second Division, and the last opponent is the French First Division, just like entering the room, gradually building the confidence of the players, but in the end, the arrangement of a French League opponent is to avoid the young players in the team from breeding arrogance and contempt. , like ringing a wake-up call in their hearts.

In the face of a semi-professional opponent, Monaco's strength was like Mount Tai pressing the egg. In the first half, Monaco simply pressed the opponent to the ground and rubbed it. In the second half, Afei's mistake was like opening Pandora's box, allowing the opponent to seize the opportunity.

The opponent's sudden long pass was like a sharp sword stuck in Afei's heart. Afei made a mistake, as if his soul had been taken away, and failed to complete the relief. The ball was like a naughty child, just falling in front of the opponent's striker. The latter pushed lightly and broke the goal, as if he had sprinkled a handful of salt on Monaco's wound. .

The loss of the ball did not affect Afei's mentality. In the following time, he was like an indestructible wall and kicked out a few shots from his opponent, but in the case of crushing his strength, the opponent's shot was like scratching his boots and there was no threat at all.

However, Afei's mistake was like a boulder, pressing on Ranieri's heart. Although Monaco did not lose the ball again, Afei also made several saves, but in Ranieri's eyes, Afei's save was like a chicken rib, tasteless, and it was a pity to abandon it, because Monaco was completely crushed in strength, and the opponent could not really Threatening Monaco's goal.

In fact, A Fei's heart is like a mirror. He knows that his performance is not satisfactory, but what can he do? It takes time to adapt, and the special nature of the goalkeeper's position determines that he can't live without the support and help of his teammates.

Ranieri was a little disappointed with Afei, but Pelizaro always encouraged Afei and secretly praised him for his foresight. After all, in Perizzaro's eyes, Fei is the typical player who lacks competitive experience.

Pelizaro is the person who knows Afei's strength best in the whole Monaco. He firmly believes that Afei can grow into an outstanding goalkeeper, but no matter how excellent the player is, he needs time to hone. What's more, Afei is still a half-way monk and has never played a game.

"Afei~~~ Don't put too much pressure on yourself. As a young player with little experience, mistakes are inevitable. I think that even if Buffon stands in your position, he may not be able to perform better than you." Pelizaro has been doing ideological work for Afei during this period, for fear that Afei will be crushed by mistakes.

Buffon made his debut at the age of 17 and became the main goalkeeper of Parma at the age of 19. During this period, Buffon has always been the main goalkeeper of all teams of Parma, and his experience in the game is quite rich. Before officially becoming the main goalkeeper of Parma, he also played in Serie A ten times.

The position of goalkeeper does require the precipitation of time and experience, which is also what Afei lacks the most. If Afei had put on that pair of goalkeeper gloves a few years earlier and had a youth team to accumulate experience for him, he would definitely be able to become the mainstay of a top league team.

Therefore, Pelizaro's words are still very insightful, but Pelizaro didn't know that Afei did not have the slightest doubt about his career because of these mistakes, and his confidence was still as solid as a rock.
