Even Karl Bess laughed After watching him for a while, I felt that he knew too little.
After the team's daily training, Wang Feng chose to practice extra as always.
Although he contributed several threatening crosses in the game, Wang Feng still felt dissatisfied. Caspar Blanche could not convert the ball into a goal, not only because of his limited ability to seize opportunities, It was also because Wang Feng's cross was placed in an uncomfortable position, and there was no way for him to fully exert his strength.
The previous fixed-point passing training has achieved some results. In the short pass, Wang Feng can control the ball to fall to the designated area by controlling the hitting position, strength and body posture.

Moreover, the players are constantly moving during the game, so the control of the landing point needs to be predicted to realize the state of people arriving at the ball to form the greatest threat.
This requires the cultivation of a dynamic sense of distance. Wang Feng thought hard about the countermeasures and finally came up with a weird practice method.
He placed two footballs under his feet at the same time, and kicked one of the **** with control, making it roll in different directions at different speeds, and then started the other football himself, and finally passed the football under his feet accurately. Allow him to touch the rolling football.
At the beginning, Wang Feng was still unable to make the two **** touch each other, but he continued to adjust according to the information provided by his senses, and the success rate gradually increased.
Time is passing by in Wang Feng's boring training. Due to the cup, Genk will play twice a week. They will play against Brussels at home on the weekend. Both the cup and the league are at home, and there is no need to travel back and forth. This is the only thing to be thankful for.

In the 34th minute, Wang Feng retreated to the midfield to catch the ball, trying to get rid of the defender through his speed, but the opposing player was defending very tightly, leaving him no room to break through, so Wang Feng carefully protected the ball.

He didn't hesitate, and quickly made a pass from the bottom. Unfortunately, the pass was too close to the goal and was easily picked off by the opponent's goalkeeper.
Gale shook his head helplessly at Blanche at the front of the small penalty area, saying that it was his own problem, and also surprised at the quality of Wang Feng's passing.
Wang Feng was very happy. It seemed that his training had achieved some results. The position of Adrian Gale he predicted just now was relatively accurate, allowing him to easily run out of the open to catch the ball.
In the 44th minute, Gail reciprocated, and sent a clever cross from the left, passing two defenders, and successfully found Wang Feng. Unfortunately, other defenders quickly filled their positions. Wang Feng saw that there was no space to break through. Decisively pass back to midfielder Karl Bess and wait for the opportunity again.

In the 67th minute, after Bess cut off the opponent's ball in the midfield, he quickly put his foot behind Brussels' defense line. Wang Feng understood it and started galloping the moment the football was passed, beside him. The defensive player quickly grabbed his clothes.
