It’s reality, not a game
After meeting and talking with Shingi in his dreams, Kishin woke up to the sound of his alarm. The message at first said something about the character Shingi, but later it said something about the player Kishin. And since he could see the player’s stats, Kishin unconsciously began to think of the match as a game.
There were several reasons why Kishin’s thoughts changed. First, he invited young players, grilled beef, and spent time singing together, and his team management went up from 7 to 8. Thinking back now, this was the beginning, but Kishin didn’t think much about it at the time.
The decisive moment was the away game against Vienna in the 6th round of the Europa League. They were losing 1:2, but if they didn’t lose by 4 points, they could advance to the round of 32. So Ki-shin, who was watching from the stands, wasn’t anxious at all. At that time, Cha Beom-soo, who got the ball, made a killer pass, and Wang Hui penetrated and scored with a left-footed shot.
Wang Hui, who has 1 goal-scoring ability and 2 shots, scored the equalizer with flawless penetration and a calm shot. As a result, he was able to record a draw with Vienna in the away game. Cha Beom-soo is also accurate with short passes, but he is very weak with creative passes or mid- to long-distance passes. When the two of them unexpectedly scored the equalizer, Ki-shin realized that he had been thinking of the current situation as a game.
The third trigger is Cha Beom-soo. With 9 stamina and 10 recovery, Cha Beom-soo is the player who trains the most on the team. As he took care of Gray’s defense on the field, his leadership grew from 3 to 6 and his defensive anticipation ability grew from 5 to 7. Up to this point, it is understandable, but after learning free kicks from Ward, his direct free kicks changed from 3 to 7.
This means that Cha Beom-soo had a natural talent for free kicks from the beginning. Although Ki-shin did not discover Cha Beom-soo’s hidden talent, it shone through Cha Beom-soo’s efforts. Ki-shin began to reflect on whether he had been judging players based too much on their current stats. In a real game, there is no way that free kicks could change this much in half a year. That’s why he persuaded Jin Chang, who was trying to transfer Wang Hui to a Chinese club for 6 million euros, to stay on the team. It was because he wanted to develop Wang Hui further.
Kishin even read psychology books and worked hard to further improve the skills of the young players. Two months later, Notts County returned to the European stage and was much stronger than before. However, what satisfied Kishin was the hope that Notts County would become even stronger in a few months.
Kishin played a 4-4-2 formation against Fiorentina on the road. Dixon and Jose were the central defenders, Wang Hui was the left defender, and An Thuy was the right defender. Cha Bum-soo and Gray were the defensive midfielders, with Sven on the left wing and Hasin on the right wing. The central attackers were Bonavich and Hunter.
Bonavich is a player whose stats are mostly 6 or 7. Of course, Kishin can’t see all the stats, so this is a conclusion based on the stats Kishin has checked. However, Bonavich’s judgment is only 3. Kishin judged that his stats didn’t improve because he played soccer in a position that didn’t fit his personality for a long time.
He was given a lot of opportunities at Notts County and trained hard, which raised his decision-making to 6. With his improved decision-making and wide range of activities, Bonavich started to do more than just one person’s job, and was able to play as a striker in away games in the Europa League.
As soon as the referee signaled the start of the game, Bonavić started to move actively. Fiorentina’s head coach is Bonavić’s first youth coach. It was the current head coach of Fiorentina who chose Bonavić, who wanted to be a striker, to play in the midfield. Bonavić wanted to show how well he suited being a striker.
When the centre-back who had the ball was pressed, the centre-back passed the ball to the right full-back. Under Sven’s quick pressure, the full-back passed the ball to the keeper, who kicked it long forward. Bonavich ran at a moderate pace and positioned himself to be level with the last centre-back.
As expected from Bonavich, Gray passed the ball to Cha Bum-soo with an accurate header. Since he started training free kicks, Cha Bum-soo’s long-distance passes have become much more accurate. Bonavich took a step back the moment Cha Bum-soo trapped the ball. Italian defenders like to move forward and create an offside in such cases.
As soon as the ball left Cha Beom-soo’s feet, Bonavich immediately sped up. When the offside trap failed, the center back reached out to grab Bonavich’s jersey. He thought it would be a yellow card at best, since it was home and the game had not started for long. However, Bonavich, using the trick he learned from Cha Beom-soo, coolly rejected the defender’s hand.
With the keeper one-on-one, applause came from the left. Judging by the loudness of the sound, it was definitely Hunter. Bonavich gave up his goal-scoring ambition and passed to the left. Hunter grinned and pushed the ball into the empty goal.
When they scored a goal in the first attack opportunity, the Notts County players were so excited that they forgot the cold, while the Fiorentina players needed time to gather their wits. Notts County did not give the Fiorentina players time to calm down and instead built up momentum with active forward pressure.
Wang Hui approached the Fiorentina winger who had the ball. He put pressure on the opponent’s thigh with his hips while strengthening his thighs and hips. When he felt the opponent’s center of gravity was shaken, he jerked his waist and snatched the ball away. The opponent fell to the ground and appealed to the referee, but the referee judged it to be a physical fight within the allowable range.
Wang Hui immediately passed the ball to Gray. Gray was already known as a passer, so no one paid attention to him and he was able to receive the pass easily. Gray, who has a bit of autism, thinks a little differently from others. When others had trouble receiving his passes, Gray practiced trapping diligently. This was to prove that the problem was not with his passes but with the receiver’s trapping.
Gray, who received Wang Hui’s somewhat strong pass, counted one in his head as Kisin had told him, and then passed the ball to Cha Beom-soo. Cha Beom-soo, who received the ball, passed the ball to Sven, who was running forward at high speed from the left. Sven received the ball steadily, shook off the defender’s tight defense, and crossed with his left foot.
In a cross situation, Bonavich ran to the near post and Hunter ran to the far post. This is a movement that was originally agreed upon, and if it is not suitable, the two can discuss and change it. If it is decided in advance, there will be no situation where the same team fights for the ball.
Sven’s ball was a little high and missed Bonavić. However, Bonavić landed and received a Christmas present two months late. Hunter’s header was delivered quickly and accurately in front of Bonavić, and Bonavić’s left foot lightly pushed the ball in.
“I paid off the pass earlier.”
Bonavich smirked at Hunter’s words. He always thought Hunter’s smile was stupid, but when he imitated it, he felt really comfortable. Bonavich thought about who looked more stupid, his smile or Hunter’s smile, and thought that he should smile more often from now on. To smile often, he had to score a lot of goals and win games often.
Fiorentina’s left winger made a quick move and accelerated. He beat Antui but lost the ball and put it at Antui’s feet. He quickly turned around and tried to claim possession from Antui, but Antui passed it straight to Jose. Jose passed it straight to Gray, who passed it to Cha Beom-soo.
Cha Beom-soo caught the ball and pretended to look at Sven on the left and passed it to Hasin on the right. Hasin caught the ball and instead of following the touchline, he cut inside. Ki-shin had instructed him to cut into the space between the opposing central defender and fullback before the game to break the defensive line.
As the fullback passed, the center back ran to block Hasin. Hasin did not get greedy and passed to the space left by the center back running out. Bonavich ran like a ghost and without stopping the ball, spun around and shot. The keeper had a hard time blocking it, but Hunter bent down and headed the ball in as it bounced at waist height.
The angry Fiorentina coach changed both wings in a reprimand. The right wing lost the ball to Wang Hui three times, and the left wing lost the ball to An Tui for the first time, but did not successfully cross it even once.
‘Serie A managers are nothing special either. They get so angry that their vision narrows.’
Thanks to his stat of 10 on-field command, Kishin, who can accurately understand the game situation, knows that the problem is not with the two wings, but with Fiorentina’s midfielders. Thanks to the excellent joint defense of Cha Beom-soo and Gray, the wings are not able to provide proper support, so the wings have little choice but to break through. Thanks to this, the fullbacks are able to defend comfortably.
There are no zodiac signs in the West, but if there were, Hunter would definitely be a swallow. In the 30th minute of the game, Hunter headed a corner kick and hit the post. The ball bounced off the post and Bonavich hit a powerful shot that shook the upper netting. Some Fiorentina fans even stood up from their seats and turned their backs to the stadium for three minutes to express their discontent.
Bonavich, who has a finishing power of 5, and Hunter, who has a finishing power of 6, had several good opportunities after that, but failed to make any of them. Hunter originally had a finishing power of 4, but it rose to 6 thanks to his ability to head. He has been practicing shooting late into the night with Cha Beom-soo and Gray, but there have been no visible results yet.
In the second half, Eduardo was brought up and Hunter was taken down. Sven moved to the position of central striker to match Bonavich, and Hasin moved from the wing to attacking midfielder. In the 75th minute of the game, Cha Beom-soo was taken down and Ward was brought up. The purpose was to see how much defensive ability Gray would show in the absence of Cha Beom-soo. Eduardo focused more on defense, so there were no major problems, but in the absence of Cha Beom-soo, Gray had a hard time deciding who to pass to when he received the ball. The defense itself was not a major problem.
Bonavici, who completed his hat-trick by beating the keeper after receiving Ward’s killer pass, was substituted by Alessandro in the 85th minute. The Fiorentina fans gave the young Italian striker a standing ovation. After being substituted, Bonavici went to the Fiorentina bench and even shook hands with the head coach.
In the game a week later, Notts County lost 1:3 at home to a well-prepared Fiorentina. It was a game that showed that Notts County’s objective ability was still lacking. The tactics were appropriate and the players played hard, but they lost in a battle of skill against skill. In particular, the team’s atmosphere was slightly depressed because Dixon, who had been trusted, made two critical mistakes.
But as Marco and Black recovered from their injuries, Kishin had more options, and over the course of a year and a half, Kishin had a good idea of which players were suitable for which tactics. Of course, hundreds of repeated dreams helped a little. While Kishin took a step closer to his goal, Shingi was troubled for various reasons.
