I Just Can Score

In the last round against Karlsruhe, Zhen Shaolong came off the bench for 30 minutes and helped St. Pauli score two goals. He almost single-handedly led the team to reverse the away game and take all three points.

His performance surprised St. Pauli, and even the entire Bundesliga.

If it were any other striker who scored two goals in 30 minutes and helped the team win, it would be nothing, just performing well occasionally, but Zhen Shaolong is a bit different. He is only eighteen years old, and he is still the first Log in to the professional arena once.

Not only the regional media paying attention to St. Pauli, but also some major media have reported on the game, focusing on Zhen Shaolong who performed well.

The topic of "scoring a goal with the first touch" has been repeatedly mentioned by various media, such as the "German Football News", which said, "In the century-old history of football, there are no detailed records, but there must be very few. There are players who can do it, maybe he sets a new record."

The Bundesliga column of "Munich Focus Weekly" jokingly said, "Maybe he can apply for the Guinness Book of Football, because there is no precedent before."

With so many media reports, Zhen Shaolong will naturally become a lot of attention.

When St. Pauli ushered in the league again, many people paid attention to the game, including some media outside the region and scouts from various clubs. They hoped to watch Zhen Shaolong's performance live.

————

In this round of the league, St. Pauli played against Unterhaching at home. Both teams are in the 'relegation zone', with little difference in strength and state.

Relying on home court advantage, St. Pauli scored two goals in the first half, leading their opponents strongly.

The overall state of the team is good, and Bergmann will naturally not make substitutions.

Zhen Shaolong could only sit on the bench.

When the time came to the second half, St. Pauli seemed a little careless, or the opponent's performance improved. From the 77th minute to the 82nd minute, Unterhaching scored two goals in a row, and the game situation took a turn for the worse.

Bergman wanted to scold people standing on the sidelines!

Five minutes ago, he still thought he could get three points again, so he waited for the time to pass to welcome the victory, but the situation changed too quickly.

Unterhaching even tied!

If the game continues like this, maybe the loser will become St. Pauli.

Bergmann couldn't bear it anymore, he chose to make substitutions: replace a midfielder with a defender, it is necessary to strengthen the defense.

in addition……

Bergman hesitated for a moment, and let Zhen Shaolong play, replaced by center Felix Lutz.

————

Although there is not much time left in the game, it is good to have a chance to play, especially at the Miller Gate Stadium, where there are more than 20,000 St. Pauli fans sitting in the stands around.

Zhen Shaolong was still a little excited.

The stadium broadcaster Hukaert introduced to the fans, "Replacing Felix is ​​No. 13 Zhen. He is a young Chinese player, but he also came from the St. Pauli youth team. He previously participated in the German North League in the St. Pauli youth team. "

"Don't underestimate him. In the last match against Karlsruhe, Zhen performed very well. He scored two goals and led the team to victory!"

"Now that Mr. Bergman chooses to replace Zhen, he probably hopes that he will continue his wonderful performance..."

The fans in the surrounding audience stands are still looking forward to it. They hope that Zhen Shaolong can continue to perform well and lead the team to victory.

But when Zhen Shaolong came to the field, he found that it was not easy to perform.

The team is too passive!

Unterhaching is not stronger than St. Pauli, nor is it much better than St. Pauli, but they played in a good state and suppressed St. Pauli with offense.

St. Pauli is also trying to fight, but the overall state is not good. The two consecutive offensives were intercepted by the midfielder, and most of the time they still need a solid defense.

Zhen Shaolong stood in front alone,

Alone and a little helpless.

He can't help it.

Football has always been under the control of the opponent, no matter how hard you try, what can you do?

One minute.

three minutes.

The game time passed quickly, and it entered stoppage time in a blink of an eye, and the situation remained unchanged.

In stoppage time, Unterhaching's offensive was even more fierce. They seemed to want to take advantage of the last time to score another goal and win the victory.

St. Pauli became extremely passive.

Head coach Bergman stood on the sidelines, very worried about the defense. He kept yelling to remind the defense, and when he saw Zhen Shaolong standing in the frontcourt, he also yelled angrily, "What are you doing, go back and defend! Defend!"

Zhen Shaolong was a little innocent, he ran back a few symbolic steps, and then continued to stand there.

Go back to defense?

Do not!

"I play to find opportunities, to score goals. If I need to go back to defend, let others not play!"

Zhen Shaolong thought stubbornly.

Finally, when stoppage time passed, St. Pauli still defended the goal. With the referee's whistle, the game officially ended.

St. Pauli drew with Unterhaching.

The St. Pauli players were not in a good mood. They had a good chance of winning and scored two goals in the first half, but the opponent performed so well in the second half that they quickly tied the score. Goal, almost lost the game.

Bergmann was in a bad mood. The victory he had won turned into a draw, and his opponent was Unterhaching, who was in the front row. He went to the locker room and made a big fuss.

Every player was scolded a few words.

Zhen Shaolong did not escape either.

"What are you doing! Do you think the striker can just stay in front? No! This is a professional league, everyone must participate in defense!" Bergman's tone was very severe.

Zhen Shaolong pursed his lips and listened.

"Yeah, you performed very well in the last game, you scored two goals, and you were the hero of the team's victory!" Bergman continued to taunt, "But so what? Remember! You are just an ordinary player, your strength If you can’t catch up with the others, you won’t get special treatment in the competition!”

Zhen Shaolong was full of depression when he was scolded. Looking back carefully on the situation after his appearance, he didn't feel that he did something wrong. On the contrary, the head coach Bergmann accused him of "not participating in defense" based on the final result of the game.

What if there is a chance?

As long as you find a chance to score a goal, St. Pauli will win!

What about going to the defense? It's still just a tie, so what's the point of playing!

But……

Bergman has a saying, but he said it in his heart: In the professional arena, everyone must participate in defense.

This sentence cannot be said to be an iron rule, but I have heard it many times.

Zhen Shaolong was caught in conflict, "Should I defend in the game? Am I being too stubborn, or is Bergman making random accusations?"

"I'm right! Because I can't defend!"

"Bergmann is right... Everyone has to be involved in defense, including the strikers."

After dinner, Zhen Shaolong went to the gym to exercise, still thinking about this problem, and looked a little out of his mind.

"What are you thinking?"

A female voice interrupted his thinking, Zhen Shaolong looked up and saw that it was Leina.

Zhen Shaolong's refusal of "a gentleman" before made Lena feel very annoyed, and she ignored him for more than a week. Fortunately, time can dilute everything, and the relationship between the two has returned to the past--

Ahem... can only be regarded as ordinary friends.

Zhen Shaolong took the water that Leina handed over, drank it in one gulp and thanked him, "Are you still working so late?"

"It closes at nine o'clock."

"It's hard work."

"You too, come to exercise at eight o'clock, every day at this time, only you are left." Leina rolled her eyes, if it wasn't for Zhen Shaolong, maybe she could get off work earlier.

Zhen Shaolong laughed.

"By the way, it seems that you have something on your mind. Is it because of today's game? I heard that it was a tie. Are you playing?" Reina asked.

"Ok."

"Is there anything you can't figure out?"

Zhen Shaolong glanced at Leina, and felt that it was okay to talk to her, so he spoke out his troubles.

Reina sat beside her, listened patiently and said with a smile, "That's it? There's nothing to worry about."

Zhen Shaolong looked over.

"Let you hear about me." Reina said of herself, "When I graduated, I got a job as a teacher in a nearby public elementary school, and my family wanted me to be an elementary school. Teachers, because the work will be relatively easy."

"But I prefer fitness. When I was a child, my dream was to become a fitness instructor. This is not just a hobby. Long-term fitness can also help to maintain my figure, but now I regret it a bit, because the working hours are long and the salary is not high. Occasionally Thinking about it, what the family said makes sense..."

Zhen Shaolong suddenly realized, "I understand."

Reina laughed and listened.

"You mean to say that sticking to your own ideas is the right thing to do. For example, if you become a fitness instructor, you can improve your figure and marry a better man in the future. Although it is hard now, the future is very, very long , everything is worth it.”

"It's the same for me. I'm a striker, and the striker's task is to score goals. So I should stick to myself. It doesn't matter what other people say. As long as you stick to it, you will achieve greater success in the future!"

The depression in Zhen Shaolong's heart was completely gone, and he also smiled heartily.

Reina was a little dazed, "What do I mean?"

"Isn't it?"

"Keep in shape... I can marry a better man in the future... There is still a long time in the future... That's right..." Leina found herself convinced, but she couldn't find words to refute.

"Thank you!"

Zhen Shaolong was in the joy of 'self-affirmation', and his thanks came from the bottom of his heart.

Reina didn't know whether to cry or laugh, "It should be me thanking you, because I found that I was motivated to continue working again."

Zhen Shaolong's expression froze suddenly, because a system notification sounded in his ear.

"Reminder: There is a new system task trigger, the host can choose one of the following three to complete--

1. Make the following statement: If you want to thank me, come and have a crazy night with me! "

2. Touch Lena's peak for more than five seconds.

3. Touch Reina's tun-bunk for more than five seconds.

Task reward: Strength index increased by 1 point, appearance value increased by 1 point. "
