Stand by the last line of defense

Chapter 40 But... not tomorrow!
Liu Zheng pondered for a while, recalling the transfer records of many goalkeepers in Spain.

After some consideration, Liu Zheng gave the current value of Zheng Long.

"Zheng Long is a player with great potential. Among the players I have seen, his potential should be one of the best. If Zaragoza wants to buy Zheng Long completely, 1000 million euros! They are willing If you take out this money, sell Zheng Long to them!"

A school that specializes in training players like Hengxi Football School has no so-called non-sale items at all.

They are not football clubs, and they do not participate in competitions. To train players is to provide players to major clubs.

As long as there is a suitable price, of course it can be negotiated.

After receiving a call from Zaragoza's general manager, Liu Zheng's first reaction was how to maximize his profits.

"Well, I think so too!" Ao Tuo nodded, expressing his approval of Liu Zheng's opinion.

Zheng Long didn't know that Zaragoza had planned to buy all his ownership.

He is still training seriously.

His continuous outstanding performance has conquered all his teammates and won the unanimous approval of all members of the coaching staff.

Now, even the former main goalkeeper Algeria has acquiesced in Zheng Long's status.

Now, Zheng Long has firmly occupied the position of the main goalkeeper.

There is no way, Zheng Long's performance is really outstanding, he can't find a chance to beat the opponent at all.

In today's training, Zheng Long once again blocked the striker's shot.

The intensity of the training is incomparable to that of the official game, and Zheng Long's defense is even more relaxed and enjoyable.

Seeing such miraculous saves every day, Zheng Long's teammates are almost numb.

"What a freak!"

Everyone thought helplessly.However, thinking that such a "freak" was his teammate and did not appear in the opponent's formation, everyone couldn't help but feel grateful.

It is not so difficult to fight against such a monstrous goalkeeper...

With the whistle of assistant coach Denekens, the last training before the game came to an end.

Zheng Long picked up the towel in the goal, wiped the sweat off his forehead, and looked at the stands next to the training ground involuntarily.

Hundreds of people gathered in the stands!
Due to his recent excellent performance, Zheng Long has received special treatment from the fans.

In today's open training, they carefully prepared a huge banner that read "Interceptors, lead us to La Liga!"

Zheng Long gave a thumbs up to those fans and saw Zheng Long noticed them.

They immediately cheered and shouted loudly. "Interceptor, lead Zaragoza to La Liga, where is our stage!"

"Come on! Interceptor! You are the best!"

……

After Zheng Long signed autographs for several fans, he was just about to go to the locker room.

Assistant coach Nekens came over.

"There will be a pre-match press conference later, the head coach asked you to prepare."

"Oh!" Zheng Long was a little flattered when he heard that the coach asked him to accompany him to the press conference.

You must know that those who can participate in the press conference are the big names of the team, or the captain is eligible.

Now that the coach has called him, it shows that the team has also recognized his status.

This made Zheng Long a little complacent.

Zaragoza's pre-match press conference.

Zheng Long sat beside the head coach Popovich, looking at the reporters sitting in the audience, feeling a little emotional.

This is not the first time Zheng Long has participated in a press conference.

At the time of the transfer, a press conference was released to introduce him to the media and reporters.

But at that time, except for one media in Aragon and two domestic media that paid for it, there was no one else.

Now there is no need to spend money, the domestic media and the Spanish media will be very interested in Zheng Long, and many media have asked the club to interview Zheng Long.

Therefore, the club deliberately took Zheng Long as the player representative of this game, and accompanied the head coach to attend the pre-match press conference.

Soon, head coach Popovich finished introducing the team's preparations, and it was Zheng Long's turn to speak on behalf of the players.

"Hello Zheng Long, I'm a reporter from Aragon Sports Weekly. In the previous game, you had a clean sheet and performed very well.

Excuse me, who do you think can break through your door.In other words, how long do you think your record of zero opponents can be maintained? "

When Zheng Long heard the other party's question, he immediately cursed inwardly.

This group of reporters thinks that the matter is not big enough, so they will hollow out me.

Can I say who scored the goal?That doesn't make him look very unconfident.

Of course, it cannot be said that someone will not break the goal, that would be too arrogant.

Zheng Long thought for a while and said. "Of course I hope that I will never be scored by the opponent. You know, for me as a goalkeeper, picking the ball out of the goal is always the most painful!"

This is the press conference held at Zaragoza's home court. The host was afraid that Zheng Long would make things difficult, so he hurriedly said.

"Next question please lady!"

The ones named by the host were slim female reporters from the Serbian radio station.

she stood up and said. "Hi, I'm Mina, a reporter for the Serbia Express. Excuse me, in the next match, can you still keep a clean sheet?"

"As far as I know, Real Betis' Castro challenged you when he was interviewed by the media a few days ago. He said he would break through your door. What do you think?"

Castro is an excellent striker, otherwise, he would not be 32 years old and still be the main striker of Real Betis.

A day earlier, when Castro was interviewed by reporters.

He showed contempt for Zheng Long's level, and even challenged the gate he guarded.

"That Huaxia goalkeeper? He's just lucky. I will definitely conquer his goal!"

The reason why Castro did this, on the one hand, was to boost the confidence of his teammates; on the other hand, he hoped to use the power of the media to interfere with Zheng Long's state of mind, thereby affecting his performance.

After all, Zheng Long is only 17 years old, and his ability to cope with pressure may not be that mature.

The reporters present suddenly became excited.

This question is quite explosive, but it is exactly what media reporters like to see.

Plain news has no way to attract readers. Only such conflicting issues can easily attract everyone's attention.

It is conceivable that no matter how Zheng Long answers, it will become a hot spot in media reports.

If Castro breaks through Zheng Long's door, then Zheng Long will face doubts from all sides.

Question Zheng Long's ability, especially the fact that Zheng Long is still a Chinese.

It will be suppressed from all sides.

In many cases, the players themselves are not afraid of losing the ball, but the media's disturbance will destroy a person's self-confidence.

Which goalkeeper does not experience a few black moments in his life?

Even Buffon, who is known as steady, has low-level mistakes.

Just like Fords.

If it wasn't for the booing from the media, it would have driven the boos and insults of the fans.

Many times, the incident passes.Players will also cheer up, a new start.

But for the sake of traffic and to attract readers, the reporters always hype up with gimmicks!

The overwhelming criticism and accusations put a lot of pressure on the players, making them sensitive and anxious.

In the game, I will become nervous and afraid of making mistakes.

For a goalkeeper, the more nervous, the easier it is to make mistakes.

Because nervousness can make them lose their judgment.

Compared with other positions, the goalkeeper is the position that requires calm judgment the most.

For a young player, he needs more encouragement and support in his career. The overwhelming criticism will not only affect his performance on the field, but even affect his future football development.

All the reporters stared at Zheng Long, wondering how he would answer?

Is it avoidance?Or rise to the challenge?Everyone is curious!

Seeing all the reporters looking at him, Zheng Long smiled.

"He's going to score..."

When the reporters heard this, their eyes lit up.

"But... not tomorrow!"
