Ground football: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him

I never thought of that!

According to the data panel, Deng Kai is actually a "physical freak"!

Because for normal players, their technical rating is higher than their physical rating; only players with exceptionally outstanding physiques can achieve the opposite.

But Deng Kai's side was completely reversed.

This……

Is he physically very strong?

Upon closer inspection, apart from cadence and agility, the other data are quite ordinary.

It took Deng Kai a long time to realize what was going on.

It's not that he's physically strong, it's that his technical skills are too low.

But this low is not completely low.

A person with less strength will definitely not pass accurately, but perhaps it's not because they can't aim, but because they don't have enough strength, forcing their technique to become distorted, thus resulting in inaccuracy.

This is especially evident in shooting.

So the current dismal statistics are actually good news.

This means that as long as Deng Kai trains his body, a portion of his technical attributes will naturally increase, thus ushering in his first period of explosive growth in strength.

This is a situation that many players encounter during a period of rapid physical growth.

The most famous is "the first man to retreat in defense" - Virgil van Dijk.

Before his height increased dramatically, he wasn't particularly outstanding.

The growth of young players' abilities is not linear, but rather phased and wave-like.

If your peak growth happens to be after the age of sixteen or eighteen, then I'm sorry, you've already been eliminated from the development pool before that age and have no chance to truly grow.

Most of the so-called hidden gems come from this kind of source.

There's not much to say about Deng Kai's current stats.

Overall, his positioning, ball control, short passing, pace, and agility are quite good, leading among his peers.

His positioning and high interceptions demonstrate his football intelligence.

His ball control and short passing demonstrate his ball control and technique.

His stride frequency and agility demonstrate his body control.

Based on this data, as long as he can continue to grow, there will be no problem for him to pursue a technology-based career in the future.

While attributes like long pass, shooting, footwork, jumping, strength, and explosiveness are currently poor, this is clearly due to the influence of a slender physique.

There is also the possibility of a leap in growth in the future.

The future looks bright.

At this moment, Deng Kai is just like those retail investors whose stocks are trapped. Anyway, the market has reached the bottom, and every fluctuation from now on will be a bull market!

News about Diamond Generation spread quickly.

This match has a huge impact, and it's being discussed extensively within the industry.

In particular, the youth training departments of major clubs almost started sending invitations to young players starting from this match.

With a mature youth training system, young players have no shortage of matches.

But such a large-scale competition is different from a regular competition.

The Diamond Generation Invitational Tournament was larger and more prestigious than most ordinary tournaments, reaching the level of a league derby or a cup final.

A player who can perform well in this environment is bound to achieve great things in the future.

This is something that cannot be measured in regular training or youth leagues that are similar to training.

Therefore, Cristiano Ronaldo, who shone brightly in the final and scored a hat-trick, became a highly sought-after player by various clubs.

Unfortunately, Sporting Lisbon had already taken the initiative and made all the necessary arrangements.

They won three years ago.

So when Cristiano Ronaldo transferred to Sporting Lisbon for the incredibly low price of $1,500, Benfica and Porto immediately launched an attack through their mouthpiece media, claiming that Sporting Lisbon had violated relevant laws and that there was a conflict of interest between them and Ronaldo's parents.

After all, this amount of money might not even be enough to provide two months' worth of subsidies for a prodigy like Ronaldo from the youth academy.

The deal behind this is far too blatant.

Of course, the youth training departments of such clubs cannot only contact one person; they cast a wide net.

Although Porto didn't get Ronaldo, they acted quickly and secured Almeida, the most talented player in the group after Ronaldo, early on.

Benfica has been very selective with its youth academy in the past two years. Sporting Lisbon and Porto both wanted to find good players among the players they rejected, so Benfica simply didn't take the remaining less desirable ones since they didn't get the two they wanted.

This also indirectly shows that the quality of Portuguese players during Ronaldo's time and in the years before and after him was actually relatively poor, and their star power was dim.

The Portuguese national team lineup that followed proved this point.

As a country that gathers many of Portugal's best players, the Portuguese national team has seen a decline in star players since the golden generation led by Figo and Rui Costa, except for Cristiano Ronaldo.

By the time Portugal's new golden generation of players like Bernardo Silva, Bruno Fernandes, Dejaz, Cancelo, Felix, Neves, Jota, Rashford, and A. Silva had grown up, Ronaldo had already aged, which was truly a stroke of bad luck.

Although Deco occasionally rose to prominence and Pepe accompanied him, both Deco and Pepe were naturalized players who came from the Brazilian youth training system.

Finally, Sporting Lisbon added João Moutinho, the youngest midfielder of the match.

Although his performance was average, he still showed some good potential, and his technical skills were better than Deng Kai's in the same position.

As for center-back José Fonte, who was originally in Lisbon, right-back João Pereira, who was originally in Benfica, and goalkeeper Bruno Valle, who was originally in Porto, they were all quite good for most of the game.

This match gave them a boost, allowing them to go further in their respective youth teams.

On the contrary, Benfica midfielder Amorin, who provided an assist, and Benfica center-back Veloso, who performed very poorly, suffered greatly. Not only did they not gain any recognition, but it also strengthened the team's determination to get rid of them.

The former lacks attacking talent and is not the midfield maestro Benfica is looking for.

The latter has a significant height issue, so he's definitely not fit to play center-back anymore.

Ultimately, neither of them received a contract extension from the team's youth academy and they were abandoned.

However, a month or two passed in the blink of an eye.

Deng Kai, however, did not receive the endless stream of visitors he had expected.

As the best player, the game-winning player, and the key player in the comeback of the Diamond Generation Invitational Tournament, why didn't any club offer him a contract?

It's outrageous!

It wasn't until Deng Kai sold all the autographed footballs he had and watched TV for a few days that he realized where the problem lay.
