Green Life

"I hope Pete will show me some face, you boy will really cause trouble for me," Peter muttered while flipping through his phone.

"beep beep beep"

"Hi, Pete, this is Peter, yes, Peter from Lowell Sporting Goods, haha, long time no see." As soon as the call was connected, Peter put on a smiling face.

"Peter, I heard that you are married, and you haven't been here for a long time, why did you remember to call me?" said a hearty voice over there.

"Haha, I know you are very busy as the director, so I didn't bother you. I have a big surprise for you today~"

As expected of a person who can be a sales executive, Ma Keqin started blowing when he saw Peter~

"Haha, it's my nephew, but I didn't ask you for a relationship, you know me, yes, he played great football, he will definitely be the next Irving, yes, old man, trust me, he If you are less than 13 years old, you will regret it if you miss him, haha”

"Peter, you are in merchandising, when did you change your career to be a scout?" Pete said with a smile over there.

"You know Peter, I've always had a soft spot for Liverpool, as soon as I saw this kid play, I knew he belonged to Liverpool, what, he's sitting next to me, you just have to give him a chance to show After a few years, you will be famous in history because of this decision..." Peter said with a smug face~

"Come on, Peter, you have a soft spot for best-selling products, but for the sake of our old friendship, I can let your nephew come in for a trial, but I won't guarantee that he will be admitted, you know , Peter, he cannot go to day school at this age, if he is admitted, he will directly enter the academy, and we will be responsible for his training and study, if not, there is nothing I can do," Peter said.

"I understand, don't worry, Pete, you will be proud of this decision in the future, haha", Peter said confidently.

"Okay, come in, I'll say hello to the doorman"

"Okay, see you later"

Peter hung up the phone, and immediately the weather turned cloudy. Looking at Mark Qin, he said, "Michael, you only have this chance. Do you understand? I'm here to prevent you from regretting, but don't expect too much. Most of the children here are They all start training around the age of 8, the competition is fierce, I hope you are mentally prepared"

"I see, Peter, thank you", Ma Keqin hugged Peter with a smile, turned and got off the car.

Peter froze for a moment, shook his head with a smile, and thought to himself, this child~

After entering the door, there is a red and white brick wall with "Kirkby College" written on it. On the left is the office area, a three-story building, and on the right is a large field, dormitory area and study area. The entire echelon of Liverpool is here. Here, U6~8, U8~12, U12~16, U18, U19, U21, U23.

Now Beitu has not come, the entire Liverpool youth training has not been dismembered, Kirkby is still Liverpool's proud tradition, McManaman, Carragher, Fowler, Gerrard, Owen all went out from here , This is also Kirkby's last glory.

Although Ma Keqin knew the general history, the contradiction between the head coach and the youth training system could not be understood by an ordinary fan. He only knew that Kirkby declined later. But for now, it doesn't matter. As long as I can play football, I can play anywhere, and it would be even better to be in Liverpool.

~~~~~

A slightly bald man wearing a black down jacket and glasses walked up to him, smiled and said to Peter and his party from a few meters away: "Peter, you are really causing me trouble, why didn't I know you have a nephew?" ?”

"Hi, little guy." Walking up to him, Pete smiled at Mark again, then frowned slightly.

"It's my wife's nephew, he was originally in China," Peter knew what Pete was thinking, and continued: "He is an orphan, we have gone through the adoption procedures,

So there is no problem in that regard”

"Oh~ that's it." Pete's eyebrows stretched, "It's good that there is no problem, otherwise you know, Peter, there will be a big obstacle."

"OK, I'm also in this industry, I understand, you just need to give him a chance and see his potential"

"It's okay, I can still make the decision, I'll see you later, little guy," Pete smiled at Mark Qin.

"Thank you, I will definitely work hard," Mark Qin said.

Ma Keqin is still a little excited now, do you really want to go? This is completely different from playing blindly before, this is a professional selection! , the opportunity is at hand!

After Pete finished speaking, he led them to the training ground, and said as he walked: "You are lucky, the U16 guys are all here, and Marco is also there. He is the head of scouting, and Aslit is their coach. These two guys match, I believe old Highway and Parry will not be a problem."

Peter knew that Ma Keqin was not familiar with this place, so he took the opportunity to say, "How about the trial training later? What do you need to test?"

Pete said: "It's not very complicated to play a small game with some basic skills. If you are selected, you will have a detailed test, including physical condition, physical fitness, basic skills, etc. Don't think too much~ "

After talking, he went to the sidelines, Peter went over to negotiate, Peter took the opportunity to squat down and said to Mark Qin: "Boy, are you afraid now?"

"Haha, no," Ma Keqin said with a smile, looking at the half-aged children on the field.

Peter patted him on the shoulder, handed him the bag in his hand and said, "This is the equipment I prepared for you, the rest is up to you~"

"En", after saying that, he carried the bag and ran to the dressing room next to him.

Aslit and Marco followed Pete's fingers and looked at the child who ran to change clothes. He was an Asian with black hair and dark skin, and was a little suspicious.

Aslit turned his head and asked, "Is this the kid? Asian, do you think it's okay?"

Pete shrugged and said, "I'm just doing an old friend a favor, you can figure out the rest"

Ashley nodded and said, "Understood."

On the contrary, Marco was a little interested. The old man would dig out Walcott and Bell in the future, and said: "Asians, they are all dexterous, but their bodies are not good enough to adapt to the Premier League. This kid looks very confident and obviously a little excited, not bad. ,Ha ha"

~~~~~

"Stage fright" is something that only seventeen or eighteen years old would do. "Oh, young age, young age...", Mark Qin came out humming and dancing.

Not to mention, after all, it is a professional seller of sporting goods. These clothes and shoes are comfortable. Liverpool's red home jersey is "No. 8, Gerrard"

"Oh, our little fans, Gerrard will be happy, haha," Marko said with a smile

Peter didn't know where Mark Qin's excitement came from, so he couldn't help, so he had to install the poles on one side.

"A group of little dolls, brother, can you still bully me?" Ma Keqin felt a stinky fart in his heart, this is completely let go, don't worry about gains and losses, isn't a passionate life, doing things that you have never had a chance to do in your previous life, what? There is still time to think about other things.

Aslit also seemed to be infected, and said with a smile: "Little guy, do you look optimistic?"

"No, it's self-confidence"

"Haha, I like this kid," Aslit said to Pete and Peter with a smile, "Come on, let's look at your basics, first juggle the ball"

..., when I saw Mark Qin bumping the ball seven or eight times before it fell, the four people next to me felt a crow flying over their heads...

"It's been a while since I've touched it, it's a bit rusty, and it can be bumped dozens of times at ordinary times," Ma Keqin scratched his head and said.

Do you have the nerve to show off dozens of times? Soul light! , Peter felt so ashamed that he was about to be thrown to his grandma's house.

"Okay", Aslit was a little speechless, "Look at your dribbling and passing again", he said and took him to another field with several obstacles on the field and several small goals next to it , "Okay, your name is Michael? OK, now take the ball around the barrier and pass it into the goal, once in each direction, understand?"

"Understood", Ma Keqin nodded, and after bouncing the ball for a while, Ma Keqin found some sense. These basic contents are not a big problem.

As he said that, Mark ran over with the ball in his foot, dribbled the ball with his right foot, followed, dribbled the ball with his left foot, followed..., passed the ball with his arch, and scored.

In the first pass, there was nothing outstanding. Anyone who had a little contact with football could complete it. It can only be said that Ma Keqin was slightly better, and the ball feel was passable.

After two or three times, Ma Keqin obviously speeded up, because he gradually adapted to the feeling of playing with his body. When Ma Keqin played in the past, he relied on the sense of the ball. Because his body and speed are average, he mainly relies on the principle of passing people. Freedom and fake moves, coupled with the fact that Xiaochang is used to kicking, the frequency of movements is relatively fast.

Suddenly, the kick was a little bigger, and the speed of the ball was a little faster. If you wait to catch up, you will be a little far away from the obstacle. Mark Qin subconsciously hooked the toe of his left foot, let the ball jump up and jump over the obstacle, and then followed closely I bought it, unloaded it with the toe of my right foot, took advantage of the trend, and continued the rhythm.

"Rhythm, ball feel, and frequency are all good. This kid has practiced before," Marco commented professionally, "But it's a bit wild, and many things are not standardized."

"Yes, yes, he usually plays blindly and has no professional training, but his foundation is very good." Peter immediately felt elated.

Marko didn't turn his head to pay attention to him, and continued to watch. For the last time, Marko became interested, played a little trick, and turned the ball into the goal with an outside instep arc.

"Hey boy, I didn't let you shoot," said Aslit, frowning.

"Coach, I just changed the way of passing the ball." Mark Qin came back and stared at Aslit without squinting.

"Haha, a boy with personality," Marco laughed, then patted Aslit, and said, "Let Elmer try one-on-one with him?"

Aslit also laughed and said, "Boy, you will suffer later, Elmer~, get the hell out of here", Aslit turned his head and shouted.

"Coach", after a while, a strong white guy came running, about 14 years old, with blond hair.

"You come to one-on-one ten times, Michael attacks and you defend, whoever loses fifty push-ups!"

"Okay, coach, I will show this Asian kid how powerful Kirkby is," Elmer said arrogantly.

"...", Ma Keqin was speechless, "The little kid is a bear~~"

The two took a stance, Ma Keqin was stepping on the ball, and Elmer was still stinking: "Hey, Huang Piboy, I want to play football and practice for a few years before coming back."

"...", Ma Keqin suddenly moved his right shoulder, and Elmer stepped forward with his left foot reflexively to intercept, and then... there was no more, "shit, Elmer, didn't you wake up at noon?" It’s actually been pierced through the crotch~~~”, Aslit stood on the sidelines and cursed.

Elmer became a little annoyed, gritted his teeth and looked at Ma Keqin and said, "Don't try to sneak up again."

Mark Qin thought to himself, this pure young man is really easy to deceive~~

In the second round, Mark Qin stepped on the ball and pretended to take two steps forward. When he was close to the defensive range, he suddenly pulled the ball behind him. About to steal the ball with his long legs, Ma Keqin turned around quickly, leaned against Elmer, kicked his left foot, and passed again.

At this time, many people gathered around the sidelines, all children from different echelons, watching the fun.

"Eh? Elmer is out of position, it's too easy to be deceived"

"Where did this kid come from? He seems to have two hands."

Interesting, Marco touched his chin and thought that he was becoming more and more interested in this kid. He is quite smart, but he has not yet realized his skills, but he has a strong mentality. Elmer's impatience won both times.

Seeing so many people watching, Elmer couldn't hold back anymore, and became more and more irritable. The third time, Mark Qin passed by with a flick.

Aslit could see that Elmer was careless at first and then impatient, and he was always striving for progress. For the defensive side, taking the initiative to move is very passive, so he shouted at Elmer angrily: "Elmer, don't give me any more I'll kick it well, let him get out."

Mark Qin can see that Elmer is a traditional British defender with strong frontal interception ability, but his movements and turns are slow. .

After being scolded by the coach, Elmer also came to his senses a little bit, staring at Mark Qin's feet, instead of making aggressive moves, he blocked Mark Qin's breakthrough route to death.

This time Ma Keqin's weakness was exposed. His basic skills were not very solid, he made many mistakes, and there was also a physical gap between Elmer and Elmer. Won twice and tied five to five.

"Hey, boy, you're not bad, I'm sorry for the offense just now," Biwan Elmer extended his right hand to Mark Qin unexpectedly.

Ma Keqin glanced back at this guy, smiled sassyly, "It's okay, brother", and clapped his hands.

"Hey, Elmer, you almost got planted today, haha, who is this kid?", A bunch of teasing just after the end.

"Get out, go back to training, do you want to be scolded by the coach?"

"The boy is good, he is good at taking advantage of the opponent's psychology, and Elmer is our captain," Marko said with a smile when he saw Mark Qin come back.

"Yes, he's a little careless, but I don't fear him." Ma Keqin knew that now was not the time to be humble.

Aslit walked over and said: "Michael, you are not bad, but these are not enough. There are hundreds of children of this level. You will play a small field for half an hour in a while. You have to show all your abilities." Just do it, you know?"

"Look, well, coach." Mark Qin puffed up his chest.

Mark looked at the young players galloping on the field, his eyes were ablaze with fire, and only after trying it himself did he know that it was really possible for him to be a professional player, and now he still had time to exercise his skills and body, even If you can't become a star, as a profession, it is no problem to solve your livelihood.

The most important thing is that playing football is so much fun~~
