After listening to the system's explanation, he was still a little disappointed. I thought that no matter how far away it was, no matter what the impact was, it would be able to hit it with perfect accuracy! The results are also affected by the venue, weather, weight of the ball itself, valve core position, gravity, wind direction, arc technology, etc.
In fact, this was Willard's own misunderstanding. The stadium environment is complex and ever-changing. How can there be a shooting technique that is completely immune to external influences and can truly hit the target with perfect accuracy?
Doesn't that mean that he can hit the goal from any position on the court and run into blind spots?
Not to mention anything else, the moment you shoot the ball, you are pushed by your opponent. The shot that was originally going towards the blind spot is pushed by the opponent and changes the position of the ball the moment it hits the ball. It would be strange if there is no deviation. .
However, with this 100-point shooting technology, at least the accuracy is much higher than the original. Football is changing. Velarde's running position and speed are higher than ordinary people. It is impossible for a game to be completely free of interference-free shooting opportunities.
As long as he is given the opportunity to shoot without interference, the number of shots that hit the goal frame or even the blind corner will be greatly increased.
The more threatening shots you take, the more goals will come naturally.
…
Thinking about various things, Willard didn't go to bed until after one o'clock, but he still felt energetic when he woke up the next day. Not only was he not affected by the lack of sleep, but he also thought that today's training and competition would test the power of the first full-value skill. Ladd is very excited and can't wait to start training and competing.
After breakfast, at 10:00 sharp, the entire Liverpool team conducted adaptive training at Swansea's home court, which is the venue where today's game will be played.
Mainly to adapt to the turf, court width, etc. The length, width and turf of each court are different, so many teams will be unable to get into the state when playing away games. This is the reason.
Your passing and shooting must adapt to the width of the away court. For example, if the away court is not as wide as the home court, your pass may go out of bounds.
The intensity of this kind of adaptive training is naturally not high. After training together for a while, you can start to exercise freely. At this time, Willard couldn't help but let Sturridge, who had the ball at his feet, pass the ball to him.
When Willard received the ball, he was still more than 40 meters away from the goal. However, Willard did not stop the ball and directly kicked the ball in the direction of the goal with a powerful long-range kick.
Everyone watched helplessly as the ball flew into the upper right corner of the goal. Goalkeeper Mignolet, who was practicing goalkeeping in front of the goal line, saw the ball flying in the distance and subconsciously made a save. However, the angle of Velarde's ball was very tricky, and it was just a hair away from becoming a theoretical dead spot. .
Therefore, Mignolet did not pounce at all and could only watch helplessly as the ball entered the net.
When he saw the ball flying into the net as he expected, even though it was probably ten centimeters away from the theoretical blind spot he expected, Velarde's eyes lit up. If such shots can be taken many times in actual combat, let alone Swansea's goalkeeper, even if world-class goalkeepers such as Buffon, Cech, and Casillas come, he will have to score two goals.
Therefore, Willard applied to the coach for shooting practice. He was about 30 meters away from the goal and asked his teammates to pass the ball to him. It was not limited to ground balls. He simulated the non-stop ball in sports battles and hit the goal directly.
Then, everyone was shocked to see that from such a long distance, his teammates passed the ball to Velarde 20 times, including 14 ground balls and 6 air balls.
In 14 ground balls, Willard hit the goal frame 13 times, and all of them were at tricky angles. Although the distance was very far, leaving enough reaction time for the goalkeeper, because Willard's shot was powerful enough, the goalkeeper only saved 5 of the 13 shots that hit the goal frame, a total of 8 shots. The shot flew into the goal.
In the other 6 air balls, Willard also volleyed directly without stopping the ball, and 3 times he hit the goal frame. However, Villard cannot deliberately hit the blind spot when volleying like this. It is not easy to actually hit the ball and hit it within the goal frame.
However, because the volley was too powerful and faster than the ground volley, and Velard was lucky enough to hit a certain angle, two balls flew into the goal in the end, and only one angle was too high. It was being saved by goalkeeper Mignolet.
He shot 20 non-stop shots and scored a total of 10 goals.
This was not a penalty kick, but a non-stop shot from about 30 meters away from the goal. This efficiency shocked everyone in Liverpool.
Willard himself was pleasantly surprised.
He was a little disappointed last night, but the actual effect was so fierce. When there are only 99 shots and no 100 shots, it would be good if he can score 5 of these 20 shots. But now, he can score 10, and his goal rate has more than doubled.
As he had calculated before, when shooting from 20 meters away, the angle deviation is 1°, and the difference will be 0.35 meters in front of the goal. For a shot from 30 meters away, the initial shot will be deflected by 1 degree, and will be deflected by more than half a meter when it reaches the goal.
This difference starts from the moment the ball touches the ball and is not caused by other football materials, turf, weather, wind direction, gravity, arc, etc.
But now, when Willard's shooting skills reach 100, as long as there is not too much interference at the moment when he touches the ball, the kicked ball will not be biased. Others, even if affected by their own arc technology, wind direction, etc., are far less big than before, resulting in a situation where the goal rate has more than doubled.
Seeing Velarde's strong scoring rate, a coach suggested that it would be better to let Velarde play as a forward.
But this suggestion was rejected by head coach Klopp, and Willard himself was unwilling to be a pure scoring machine.
With so many skills, he is obviously a ball-winning all-rounder, so why does he have to only be a forward? Free people are good.
Moreover, outside the penalty area, he is subject to fewer restrictions and may get a chance to shoot at any time. Even if he is thirty or forty meters away from the goal, he can directly hit the goal. It is exciting to think about it.
Of course, the opponent doesn’t know about this pre-match adaptive training. When Liverpool trains, there will be no Swansea players or coaches present. Similarly, when Swansea trains, Liverpool will also leave.
Therefore, except for Liverpool's own people, no one knew that Willard's shooting skills had improved again, and it had suddenly risen to an unattainable level. His shooting skills were already daunting before. This year he has played 50 games with Liverpool and the Argentina national team and has scored 68 goals so far, far surpassing Messi and Ronaldo, not including the Olympics.
This kind of scoring efficiency is amazing enough. Unexpectedly, Willard's shooting skills have improved qualitatively. Not to mention Willard himself, Liverpool's coaches and players are already looking forward to the upcoming game.
Everyone wants to pass the ball to Velarde during the game and watch him shoot.
With Willard's abnormal shooting skills and facing a lower-tier team like Swansea, there is no doubt about winning. It just depends on how many goals he wins.
Soon, it was evening and it was game time.
On October 1, 2016, at 20:30 in the evening, with the whistle of referee Michael Oliver, the match between Swansea and Liverpool in the seventh round of the 2016/2017 Premier League season officially started at Swansea's home stadium, the Liberty Stadium.
Swansea is currently ranked fourth from the bottom in the standings, only one step away from the bottom three relegation zones. Everyone thinks that Liverpool will win, it is just a matter of winning a few goals. Especially the players who played last game, because everyone already knows the secret of Velarde's shooting skills. In this game, everyone just needs to pass the ball to Velarde and watch him perform a goal-kicking performance.
Unexpectedly, Karius gave everyone a big gift as soon as the game started.
Liverpool were still adapting to the away game environment, and Swansea took advantage of this opportunity to launch an opening attack, and then in the 3rd minute, forward Borja Bastong completed a ground ball shot.
Originally, the ball was not a big threat, but Bastog was interfered by captain and defensive midfielder Henderson when he shot. He did not use any force. It was a ground ball and the angle was not very good. It was a general threat.
Liverpool goalkeeper Karius stood in the direction of the ball, bent down, and prepared to pick up the ball with both hands.
Unexpectedly, he opened his arms a little too wide and couldn't wrap his hands around the ball. The ball rolled over his palms, between his arms, and between his legs, and rolled into the goal behind him as countless people at the scene and in front of the TV were stunned.
"Borja Baston shoots!"
"Not much of a threat!"
"ah???"
"what happened?"
"Karius didn't hold the ball, his hand slipped."
"Oh my god, Karius faced this ordinary shot and actually performed a buttery hand in front of the goal."
“It’s unbelievable that as the goalkeeper of the Premier League giants Liverpool, Karius, who has kept clean sheets in three games and has basically pushed Mignolet onto the bench, actually made a low-level mistake in this game. He put Borja Baston's low-threatening shot into the goal behind him."
"Karius is simply destroying his future!"
"It's so inappropriate that such a low-level mistake should appear in the Premier League."
"Mignolet on the bench is probably already snickering in his heart at this time."
Indeed, Mignolet on the bench was as shocked, disappointed and incredulous as everyone else, but what he was actually thinking in his heart was that head coach Klopp would never forgive such a buttery-level mistake. Yes, he will definitely replace Karius in the next game and get the chance to start.
When the time comes, he will seize the opportunity and firmly grasp the position of the starting goalkeeper again.
In the stadium, Velarde and his teammates, who were returning to defense, watched speechlessly as they hurriedly turned around and rushed into the goal. But it was too late. They could only pick up the ball and throw it out. After that, Karius covered his face with his hands and felt ashamed. Incredible.
No one thought that the goal just now would go in. Let alone a Premier League goalkeeper, even an amateur goalkeeper could easily confiscate the ball.
Unexpectedly, Karius, who had zero opponents in the first three games, would give his opponent such a gift just 3 minutes into this game.
It's totally off the mark.
