He was expelled from naturalization at the beginning and slipped to Europe to become the king of the

Chapter 12 Potential has no upper limit (please recommend tickets~)

At the beginning of the second half, Porto U17 used Martin's unmarked opportunity on the right to assist Felix to expand the score and turn the score into 2:0.

Felix, who scored twice, turned around with a small body, avoided the bear hug of the little black Madi Queta, and rushed excitedly to Martin who sent the assist.

Since U9, Felix has been the captain of Porto's youth teams at all levels, but he has not grown in size as he grows older. He has always been in a skinny state, so he heard some rumors...

U15 was promoted to U17, not really invincible in U15, but to make him retreat in the face of difficulties.

Portugal's youth academy respects and encourages young players to skip grades. They believe that true geniuses can definitely stand out among players who are one or two years older than them, and they should be eliminated if they don't adapt.

However, everyone's physical development period is different, and the thinness in childhood does not mean that it will still be the same in adulthood...

According to acquaintances, Felix knows that the technical department of the youth training camp will make an updated assessment of himself within three months, and may be interviewed.

In the past ten days, I took the initiative to practice more with Martin to cultivate a tacit understanding, just to show different characteristics in the Triwizard Tournament.

He wants to show youth training director Paul Noga that the outcome of a game can still be decided without a strong body!
In the first and second half, they scored twice with the tacit cooperation with Martin, and they were naturally very excited.

Paul Noga, the director of youth training who was watching the game, thought deeply, and his brain was already thinking deeply.

Can some of the necessary requirements be relaxed for true geniuses?
Suddenly, he thought of why Benfica's youth training was successful.

They are all focusing on youth training + intermediaries. Why is Benfica more successful?
The reason is simple, that is, Benfica's youth training only looks at the football talent shown by the players...

As for other aspects, they are not important considerations.

In the final analysis, it is still affected by performance that causes one's own thinking to become narrow.

This is often the case, the more you want to make achievements, the harder it is to make them.

Felix hugged Martin tightly, and said excitedly, "Thank you, Martin."

"It's just a manifestation of your ghostly running position and your ability to seize opportunities in front of the goal."

"Hey, that's..."

Felix smiled happily.

"Virtue!"

Rui Pires scolded with a smile: "I don't know how to be ashamed."

Head coach Simon looked at the players huddled together to celebrate the goal, feeling very emotional.

Especially when he looked at Martin, he was both relieved and uncomfortable.

The good news is that Martin can finally go from U17 to a higher echelon, and even has the ability to go to U23 and even the B team.

The uncomfortable thing is that the outbreak was too late, and it was almost time to persuade him to quit.

"Boy Martin, I hope you can stabilize your mentality and realize your talent."

……

Scouts standing in the fans again add new technical features to the two names in the evaluation manual.

Joao Felix: Flexible and changeable running positions, excellent sense of smell in front of the goal, and strong sense of grabbing points.

Martin: Has the habit of observing in advance, has a strong ability to read the game, participates decisively in the attack, has a very high placement rate, is good at finding open teammates to run, and is very accurate in crossing.

Steve Rowley, who had already contacted BOSS during the halftime break, was different from most scouts. He was now holding an ultra-high-definition camera to shoot Martin in all directions.

The Porto fans in the stands were very excited, celebrating Felix's lightning goal at the beginning of the second half.

The Portuguese sports fans spread their hands depressed, and did not blame the young players on the field.

Players in the U17 age group are still young, and they simply cannot complete high-quality games like professional games.

Therefore, some fans also took the initiative to applaud the young players, hoping that the youth team players of their beloved team can regain their strength and get up from where they fell.

The Sporting U17s did put in some impressive performances in the restart, but there were few shots on goal that really threatened Diogo Costa.

Martin's defense on the right is completely dominant, which is reassuring.

The defense on the left and the center relied on the advantage of numbers to complete the tactics arranged by the head coach Simon. After gaining a firm foothold, they began to counterattack, trying to further expand the score and kill the game.

However, as the U17 players of Sporting Portugal strengthened the restrictions on Martin and Felix, the shortcomings of no one's threat pass were fully exposed.

Felix has a thin body, and it is difficult to make a difference in the face of close defense.

In order to continue to play well, he had to increase his range of activities to actively receive passes from his teammates.

Continuous close defense and fighting wits, his physical strength is already a short board, and he is getting more and more uncomfortable playing.

When the time came to 10 minutes, the running coverage decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Simon realized it was time for a substitution.

In the 63rd minute of the game, Rui Pedro replaced Felix.

Felix was replaced, and the Porto U17 youth team did not change much on both offense and defense.

Especially on the defensive end, it is as stable as ever.

Martin showed super toughness and defensive ability in the face of continuous attacks from Leo and other players on the right. He successfully defended again and again and made the opponent return without success, bringing an endless sense of security to the whole team.

Defense and offense complement each other, and the offensive momentum is strong enough to release the pressure on the defense.

In the same way, a tough defense can allow the midfielders to let go of their psychological burden and devote themselves to offense wholeheartedly.

The slight disadvantage is that the attack is thunderous and rainy, and opportunities are created but no players can send the ball into the goal.

Time passed by second by second, and the offense of Sporting Portugal U17 began to develop to the right and center again.

Facing a defense that can free up enough people, there are really not many ways.

Leo, who was placed high hopes by the Portuguese sports fans, was directly defended by Martin without any confidence at all.

The overall offense was sluggish, and football soon fell to the feet of the outstanding Leo.

He didn't hesitate to receive a pass from his teammate, either to return it, or to shoot a cold shot outside the penalty area when he was far enough away from Martin.

The long-range shot under the impatience has a pitiful low hit rate.

The head coach Maritimo saw Leo impatiently complete an outrageous long shot again, and he yelled towards the warm-up area: "Cabral, come back and prepare to replace Rafael."

With Leo being substituted, Sporting's U17 offense became even more sluggish.

Both sides have an offensive, but there is a lack of players who can send the ball into the opponent's goal. The coaches of both sides began to deploy troops.

The Triwizard Tournament was originally a warm-up match, mainly to examine players.

When the time was up, players were replaced in batches, even the goalkeeper.

Martin is extremely important to Porto's U17 defense, and he has no problem with his physical fitness. He was replaced by Dalot until the end of the game.

"Dear Miguel, am I doing okay?"

Martin, who left the stadium, went straight to the auditorium, raised his hand and high-fived Miguel Mario, who raised his arms.

"Hey, it has the style I used to have."

Miguel Mario was once a genius in Porto's youth training, but unfortunately his injuries were severe, and he was sentenced to death before he could participate in the professional league, so he had to retire early.

"Don't listen to your dad's nonsense, you are much better than him."

Clara Anna gave Martin the thumbs up.

After casually chatting a few more words, Martin waved to the bench and hugged the coaches and teammates.

Felix stood on tiptoe and put his right hand on Martin's shoulder: "The next game, let's continue to make big scenes."

"If you want a pie, just say so."

Diogo Costa, who was substituted only a few minutes earlier, quipped.

"You don't want to eat the cake?"

"Hey, I'll definitely eat it if I have the chance, but usually, I don't want to eat the cakes that Brother Martin gave me..."

"Hahaha--"

Everyone laughed happily.

In stoppage time, Sporting Portugal U17 striker Cabral used Porto U17 substitute goalkeeper Ricardo Silva to drop the ball and make a supplementary shot to make the score 1:2.

But this goal was too late for them.

"Beep~beep~beep~~"

Not long after, the referee raised both hands and blew his whistle, two short and one long.

The game is over!

With Martin assisting Felix twice, Porto U17 defeated Sporting U2 1:17.

Logically speaking, Felix, who scored two dollars alone, is the player who has attracted the most attention.

The game just ended was an exception. Martin became the best player in the game with his two assists, efficient round-trip running and 100% defensive success rate.

The scouts of each team who came to the scene to inspect the players reported to the higher authorities one after another, saying that they had found a good seed.

The importance of the 'Triwizard Tournament' is completely negligible, but it does not affect the attention of scouts for players who perform well.

After all, there are very few outstanding defenders in today's football.

Today's full-backs are either strong in offense and weak in defense, or strong in defense and weak in offense. It has been a long time since there has been a full-back with strong offense and defense, although Martin's current shortcomings are still relatively obvious.

Because he is young enough, only 17 years old, and he still has strong plasticity in the future!
Porto Youth Training Director Paul Noga, who supervised the battle, was very happy with a smile on his face.

Before there was the talent of Martin's strong return, and later there was the unique talent of Felix.

Originally, he planned to eliminate Felix, the weak captain of the youth teams at all levels, in the next few months. With Martin and Felix's frequent connections to create murderous intentions, Felix's unrevealed ability was also revealed.

Fortunately, this is the case, otherwise the golden lacquer signboard of the Porto youth training will become the laughing stock of the entire Portuguese youth training circle.

No matter how good Martin's performance is, he is only a defensive player, and his worth can be raised to the level of 4000 to [-] million euros at most.

This summer, 19-year-old Luke Shaw joined Manchester United for only 3000 million pounds with his account book.

Offensive player Felix is ​​different and younger.

The highest transfer fee in today's world football has exceeded [-] million euros. Train Felix well, not to mention surpassing the record for the highest transfer fee for a Portuguese player created by Ronaldo, but at least it will not be too far behind...

Once his worth reaches the height of Ronaldo, he will also become famous as the youth training director and become a senior youth training director in the industry.

Appreciation and salary increase, that is no problem at all!

I have to say that Paul Noga is really forward-looking.

It's just that he didn't expect that Martin's potential (plug-in) has no upper limit, and his future achievements will definitely be higher than Felix's!
