What ball king, call me ball god

Chapter 122 European Golden Boy Award

The day before the 10th round of the Eredivisie.

Lin Kedi received a call from his agent Ali.

"Ali, how are you lately?"

"Very good, very good. Lin, the Torino Sport newspaper called me just now."

"Do you want an exclusive interview?"

"What kind of interview, Turin Sports News, European Golden Boy Award!"

"European Golden Boy Award!"

"Yes, the European Golden Boy Award, the organizing committee called me, this year's European Golden Boy Award is you!"

"It's really me! I thought it would be Arnold or Vinicius. The previous news reports made me think it wasn't me. I think I have performed so well this year, why is there no one in the news? Report me."

"There are still some. The media in your country have been reporting on you. Hey, you know, the British media are the best at publicizing, as if their British players are superior to others, and Vinicius, after all, is Real Madrid players, how many mouthpiece media does Real Madrid have? It’s normal to be able to publicize. Compared with those two clubs, Ajax is indeed far behind in terms of media publicity. Lin, you have to remember, take Awards depend on strength as well as publicity, but in the face of absolute achievements, publicity is useless!"

"Ali, you're right."

"They will come to the Ajax training center today. Torino Sport also called the Ajax club. I believe that the club will find you soon. Tomorrow is the home game, and you can play at Athletic Amsterdam. It’s time to show the trophy to the fans.”

Sure enough, the phone call with Ali just hung up.

The club's call came.

Afterwards, Lin Kedi walked from the gym to the team's conference room.

There, Lin Kedi received the European Golden Boy Award known as the U21 Player Golden Globe Award from Mike Saihong, chairman of the European Golden Boy Award Organizing Committee of "Turin Sports".

Subsequently, Lin Kedi and his staff came to the official exhibition hall of Ajax.

Here are all the championship honors won by Ajax, and the Turin Sports News also brought a trophy body and two replicas to Link Kedi this time. Link Kedi chose to give the replicas to Ajax The Club's Champions Showroom.

As for the other one, Lin Kedi thought about it and decided to take it home and put it away.

As for the trophy itself, it will appear at the Amsterdam Arena with Lin Kedi tomorrow.

Afterwards, it will be placed on the display cabinet in Lin Kedi's current home.

Next to the Ajax team logo in the Ajax Champions Showroom, Lin Kedi took a group photo with the European Golden Boy Award and the team logo.

Subsequently, the official social media of the European Golden Boy Awards Organizing Committee of the Turin Sports News released the news.

"Official: Lin Kedi won the 2018 European Golden Boy Award."

At the same time, Ajax's official website also released this news.

And the official Weibo of the Chinese team obviously also got the news from Lin Kedi's agent Ali, and also released a message to congratulate Lin Kedi.

For a while, the news that Lin Kedi won the European Golden Boy Award spread throughout the football world.

In China, this news basically hit the screens, and CCTV's news network also reported this news.

The hot search list has also been hanging on No.1.

As for Europe, the effect is also leveraged.

After all, Lin Kedi can be said to be the most lacking type of player on the market in recent years.

How difficult it is to find good center forwards. The useful centers on the market, no, it should be said that the easy-to-use centers have never entered the market at all, and they are tightly held in the hands of various clubs.

And Lin Kedi, a center forward from Ajax in the Eredivisie, has basically become the object of greed of all the rich.

All teams know that Link will not stay at Ajax for long.

It's not about feelings or not.

No way, this is the reality of the football world.

And now, Lin Kedi is at the Amsterdam Arena, raising the European Golden Boy Award to 4 fans.

The scene went into madness.

The audience shouted "LIN" together.

Ajax's opponent in this game is Feyenoord.

The scene of Lin Kedi before the game also made Feyenoord's veteran van Persie feel a lot of thoughts. In the past, although he had not won such a personal award, he had gained a lot when he was at Arsenal. The fans chanted their names together for the treat.

Only now—

While Van Persie was still feeling emotional, the game had already started.

Lin Kedi in this game has a particularly strong desire to score goals.

As soon as the game started, Lin Kedi took the ball and directly singled out Feyenoord's central defender.

A good center is to dare to confront the defenders and fight hand-to-hand.

That's a plus for a good center.

As for why it's just a bonus item and not a must.

It is also because of the popularity of the pass-and-control style of play in recent years that the centers of many teams are no longer the traditional high center forwards, the strong ones, and many technical centers have appeared.

Some of them avoid confrontation with the opponent's central defender, while others play behind as much as possible.

And Lin Kedi actually took this path last season.

Mainly last year, Lin Kedi was only about 1 meters.

The level of physical confrontation is indeed not high, and in the past year or so, Lin Kedi's height has risen to 1 meters.

Muscles are also gradually developed during this year.

Ten Hag's coaching staff allowed Link to gain muscle without losing speed and without affecting his flexibility.

And added confrontation training in daily training.

Lin Kedi also mainly trains the strength of the waist, abdomen and lower limbs in his daily gym training.

If you want to fight well, the strength of the waist, abdomen and lower body is extremely important.

After the start of this season, Lin Kedi gradually began to confront in the middle, and physically confronted the opponent's central defender.Some discerning football commentators have spotted this.

But Lin Kedi used to want to pass his opponent.

But now that the ball is passed, Lin Kedi catches the opponent's central defender's first kick, and either passes, or the opponent can only foul and keep Lin Kedi.

What Lin Kedi has to do now is to catch the opponent's central defender's first strike, and then pass as quickly as possible.

After that, Lin Kedi's goal is to be able to hold the opponent's central defender and adjust his feet.

Lin Kedi is making progress day by day.

In today's game, Lin Kedi, who just won the European Golden Boy Award, received a pass from his teammate in front of the Feyenoord central defender not long after the game started.

Lin Kedi ran in the direction of the pass, and raised his right hand to support Feyenoord's central defender Van der Heyden.

Then the shoulders resisted and held the opponent.

Van der Heyden obviously didn't expect Lin Kedi to withstand his own shock.

But Lin Kedi took the ball with his left foot and pressed it forward.

Now Van der Heyden didn't dare to continue to fight, because Lin Kedi had already entered the penalty area.

Van der Heyden can only hope that his partner Bo Baijin can break the ball at Lin Kedi's feet.

But Link's feet were too fast, and he stabbed with his left foot.

Goalkeeper Bailow could only watch the ball into the net.

After scoring the goal, Lin Kedi ran to the corner flag.

Hold your hands high as if there is a trophy between them.

Link made a full circle, showing his honor to the entire Amsterdam Arena.
