Football: Three sure-fire weaknesses in every match!

Lin Qi paused in his steps.

I turned my head to look.

The two teaching assistants practically sprinted over.

One of them even dropped his training record folder, and several pages flew out.

"Forest!"

"What are you going to do?"

Lin Qi pointed to the soccer ball.

"Let's practice some more."

The teaching assistant's expression changed instantly.

It was as if I had heard some extremely terrifying word.

"Extra training?"

"No!"

"Absolutely not!"

Another teaching assistant quickly added:

"We're about to play Roma at home."

"The most important thing you should be doing right now is not extra training."

"It's a recovery."

"Do you understand, recovery?"

"rest."

"sleep."

"Have a meal."

"massage."

"You can go back to playing games if you want."

"But whatever you do, don't do extra training at this time!"

Lin Qi was somewhat helpless.

"I'll just kick it a few times."

"Not even a few kicks will do."

The teaching assistant's tone was very firm.

"If you kick us now, our hearts will stop for a second."

Another assistant coach simply picked up the ball.

It's like confiscating dangerous items.

"Lin, you have to understand."

"The coaching staff's top priority now is to manage injuries."

"Especially you."

"You are our biggest trump card."

"They are also the people who absolutely cannot afford to have any problems."

This is not an exaggeration.

Now, the entire coaching staff led by Giannis Antetokounmpo has made injury control their top priority.

Training volume.

Recovery time.

Muscle fatigue data.

Sleep monitoring.

Nutritional intake.

Every step began to be scrutinized meticulously.

Especially Lin Qi.

His performance in the first three rounds was too exaggerated.

The intensity of the confrontation is also increasing.

In the AC Milan match, the coaching staff was already on edge watching several physical contacts.

For a small team like Sampdoria.

The gap in strength between the starters and substitutes is much larger than that between top teams.

If Lin Qi is healthy.

B-fee health.

Torreira is healthy.

Viviano and Skriniar, among other key players, are also maintaining their form.

Nobody can say for sure what Sampdoria's ceiling is this season.

But once the core is injured.

Everything will collapse very quickly.

This is the situation that small teams fear most.

A stunning start.

Then the main force becomes fatigued.

Injuries broke out.

The substitutes can't fill the gap.

The losing streak begins.

Confidence collapsed.

In the end, it went from a dark horse to a flash in the pan.

The coaching staff will absolutely not allow this to happen.

The teaching assistant looked at Lin Qi, his tone even pleading.

"It's a good thing that you want to train now."

"This shows you have a professional attitude."

"But professional attitude is not just about extra training."

"Knowing when to stop is also a profession."

Lin Qi looked at the two of them as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

I finally managed to smile.

"OK."

"I'm not practicing anymore."

Both teaching assistants breathed a sigh of relief.

One of them even subconsciously patted his chest.

"Very good."

"Thank God."

Lin Qi: "..."

This reaction.

Anyone who didn't know better would have thought he was about to defuse a bomb.

Since we can't do extra practice.

Lin Qi simply returned to the sidelines and picked up his phone.

He had originally planned to contact Elena and ask her to accompany him to look at houses.

He had done a quick search online beforehand.

Property prices near Genoa Beach are around 2,000 euros per square meter.

Good locations are more expensive.

The more common ones are cheaper.

But overall...

Compared to the Armani endorsement contract he just signed, it's nothing.

The base endorsement fee of over three million euros will be received soon.

In addition, there are signing fees, bonus clauses, club salaries, and winning bonuses.

Buying a more comfortable house is no longer a dream for him.

Even just buying a luxury apartment by the sea.

It's only a small part of that amount of money.

He messaged Elena.

The phone rang quickly.

"Have you finished training now?"

Elena asked.

"it's over."

"That's perfect."

"I'll drive over and pick you up right away."

"Want to go look at apartments?"

"No."

Elena's tone carried a hint of a smile.

"Let's go to the beach first."

"The boss is preparing to hold a launch ceremony for 'The Year of Lin'."

"As the main character, you can't be absent."

Lin Qi was taken aback.

"Now?"

"Now."

Elena said:

"Mr. Ferrero said, strike while the iron is hot."

"The reporters have already arrived."

Lin Qi remained silent for two seconds.

This boss.

They really don't waste a single bit of the hype.

"it is good."

"I'm changing my clothes."

……

Half an hour later.

Elena drove to the entrance of the training base.

Lin Qi got into the car.

The car drove all the way to the seaside.

The sea breeze from Genoa blew in through the half-open car window.

It has a slightly salty smell.

Sunlight shines on the buildings on both sides of the road.

The colors are so warm, like a scene from an old movie.

When near the beach.

The view suddenly opened up.

far away.

The Ligurian Sea shimmered in the sunlight.

Seagulls circled in the air.

Occasionally, it would let out a few clear chirps.

The waves pushed the beach layer by layer.

Then it slowly recedes.

Someone was walking their dog on the shore.

Some people were also sitting under parasols drinking coffee.

Unlike the suffocating oppressive feeling of big cities like Milan.

Everything here seems relaxed.

It's as if time has been slowed down by the sea breeze.

But when Lin Qizhen arrived at the scene...

I then realized that the leisurely atmosphere was simply the beach itself.

The opening ceremony was as lively as a large-scale press conference.

Western journalists.

Chinese journalist.

Local media.

Club staff.

Photographer.

Camera.

A makeshift backdrop.

The title in English was prominently displayed above:

The Year of Lin

There is also the Sampdoria team logo next to it.

And the logos of several brands that have already confirmed their sponsorship.

Lin Qi saw Ferrero from afar.

The owner of Sampdoria was wearing a very flamboyantly colored coat and standing in the middle of the crowd, talking animatedly with several reporters.

And next to him.

There was also a familiar face.

Liao Ke.

The director of Women's TV.

Lin Qigang got out of the car.

Liao Ke saw him immediately.

His eyes lit up.

He quickly walked over to meet them.

Their attitude was much warmer than when they last met, even showing obvious respect.

"A big star!"

"We meet again!"

Lin Qi smiled.

"Director Liao."

Liao Ke looked him up and down.

His face was full of emotion.

"This is incredible!"

"That's really incredible."

"The last time I saw you, I felt you would become even more popular."

"But I didn't expect you to become famous so quickly."

"A hat trick at San Siro!"

"Everyone in China has gone crazy."

He spoke in a low voice, but his tone was even more excited.

"The show you participated in, 'Your Holiday,' was a huge hit."

"Trending topics keep popping up one after another."

"Edited clips are everywhere."

"Fans are all urging you to continue participating."

"Do you know how many people are calling me right now?"

Lin Qi remained silent.

He probably already guessed what was coming next.

really.

Liao Ke immediately said:

"So many female celebrities."

"There are so many."

"They all say they want to ask me if there's a chance to collaborate with you."

Variety shows.

"Interview."

"Public service announcement short film".

"Travel Special"

"It has everything."

As he said this, his smile suddenly turned a little embarrassed.

"But I didn't come here for them today."

"I'm doing this mainly for my daughter."
