Just a week before the 18th round of the league began, Bayern Munich ended their training camp in the warm island of Mallorca and returned to Munich. When they arrived in Munich, it was still snowing here, and they were like they came directly from summer to winter.

This is also the reason why we have to come back a week in advance - let the players adapt to the climate here, after all, the game is not played in Mallorca.

If you perform well in a warm place but do abnormally when you return to a cold place, you might as well train in Munich…

After returning to Munich, Rongguang found Thomas Darlinger, the club's training equipment manager: "Mr. Darlinger, I want to ask you to do me a favor.

Darlinger has a good impression of Rongguang, not only because he trains hard and performs well on the court. He is a equipment manager, so he pays attention to different places than others. He likes Rongguang because every time after Rongguang trains himself, he will clean up the training facilities he borrows and put them back into the equipment room without him waiting for the last time to clean up.

Of course he likes such a sensible player.

So when Rongguang asked for it, he agreed without even asking what he was busy with: "No problem, just say it."

"This...I want to make a training equipment..." Rongguang introduced to Darlinger what he wanted to use to train headers.

Darlinger was a little surprised: "You mean on a pole and then hang a football..." He imagined the thing. "What are you going to do with it?"

"Practice header, Mr. Darlinger." Rongguang replied.

"Heading?" Daringer quickly reacted. Rong Guang really couldn't head the ball. At least he had never seen Rong Guang heading the ball before.

Therefore, it is normal for Rongguang to practice heading.

He nodded: "No problem, I'll prepare it for you in two days."

"Thank you, Mr. Darlinger."

"You're welcome, a small matter"

Rongguang continued to stay and practiced for himself, while Darlinger rushed back to make this special training equipment for Rongguang.

This thing is very simple and doesn't have to worry about making it. It's just an inverted L-shaped bracket and a football hanging on the short side.

But... he hasn't seen anyone practice heading like this.

There are special people who cooperate in training headers in the team. At first, they throw the football to the practice players with their hands, and the players jump up to hit the ball.

And Rongguang hangs the ball in the air. Is this because he wants to practice alone?

It's really hard...

It was really correct for Bayern Munich to decide to bring him from Brazil. The only mistake was that he actually loaned him to Werder Bremen for two seasons, resulting in almost no gains in those two seasons.

But now, we have such a talented player who works so hard. Maybe we can really make a breakthrough in the Champions League this season?

Darlinger looked forward with anticipation.

※※※

When there is no training equipment, Rongguang does exercises without the ball. He still jumps up and heads, but his head doesn't hit the football.

He jumped up again and again to head the ball, then landed, and then jumped up to head the ball.

A person repeats this action that will make any bystander feel boring in the cold training ground.

But as he repeated it again and again, his mastery of heading skills became deeper and deeper.

This is what training is about.

※※※

The next day, Magath heard from Darlinger that Rong Guang was going to practice heading.

He was not surprised by this.

In his opinion, Glory does need to practice heading. Although his foot skills are enough to cope with 90% of the game, if he wants to be a more comprehensive and powerful player and to become the best player in the world, he must make himself more comprehensive. Heading is essential.

Rongguangkong is now 1.83 meters tall. He has such a good jump but can't head the ball. That's really a waste of resources...

However, before, Magath had always been thinking that he could not train at home, and did not take the initiative to suggest or ask Rong Guang to practice heading.

Now that Rongguang wants to practice, he must have considered it clearly and assigned his training + strokes. That's no problem.

But as the team's coach... he also wants to help with glory.

So he took out the training + plan and made changes.

※※※

When the team finishes a set piece tactical training, the team will conduct offensive training according to normal procedures.

As long as the form is to arrange several offensive players to train their offensive routines, and at the same time, defensive players must be arranged to defend, so as to create a real offensive and defensive environment as much as possible.

But today is a little different.

Before the offensive training officially began, Rongguang was called out by Magath alone and did not train the offensive routine with his teammates.

The players were also very strange, not understanding why Magath took Glory out of this training. Because this offensive routine training can be said to be almost tailor-made for Glory. Glory is the core of this training routine, and all offensive routines are designed around Glory.

So if the glory is gone, this training is meaningless.

Rongguang didn't quite understand why Magath called him out.

Henk stood in front of the players and whistled them to continue training, but without glory.

And Rongguang was called aside by Magath, where there was a basket of football.

"Let's practice heading." Magath said to the puzzled Rongguang.

Rongguang let out a light whisper. He used to practice it himself, but now there is a coach who takes him to practice it. Naturally, he is undesirable, so he nodded without refusing or asking why, and nodded: "Okay."

"But before the practice begins, I want to know how far you have practiced." Magath asked. With his understanding of Glory, he felt that Glory must have started heading in his own special training during the winter break, so he had to ask clearly that if Glory had practiced for a while, he could go around the most basic part, otherwise he would have to start from scratch.

"I have practiced the header technique almost all, so I'm just practicing jumping to head the ball now." Rong Guang replied honestly.

"Well..." Magath nodded. "Then let's start straight away. I will throw the football to you with my hands. You jump up and head the ball and push the football towards me."

He pointed at himself, this was an exercise to push the ball with the front of his forehead.

"No problem" Rong Guang was a little eager to try.

Because he had been practicing static headers before, the football was suspended in the air, and then he jumped up to hit the ball. Such a header was simply not difficult. Later, he tried to twitch the football with his hands first, and then jumped up to head the ball, but this was not very difficult, which was far from the actual combat feeling.

Now someone throws the football directly to him and can simulate a cross.

He wanted to test his heading level in this close-to-actual training.

Magath retreated to the basket that was loaded with the satisfaction ball, about ten meters away from the glory. Then he threw the football in his hand diagonally. The football itself had almost no suspense, and drew a parabola in the air and flew above the glory.

Seeing the football flew over, Rong Guang kept in mind the key points of heading Klose told him.

You should stare at the football, judge the landing point of the football in your mind, and then start running under your feet.

He only moved one step and found that this place might be a better place, so he jumped on the spot and pulled onions on dry land

In the air, his body was tilted back, just like a slingshot was charging. When the football was about to fly in front of him, he suddenly bounced his body out and rubbed his forehead against the football.

The moment he came into contact with the football, Geng Guang stared at him without letting himself blink.

When he first practiced, Rong Guang would always blink involuntarily. This was a human instinct. It took him three days to overcome this instinct.

Now he can keep his eyes open throughout the whole process.

When Magath saw the movement of the glory pinning the ball, he exclaimed in his heart: "The movement is quite standard, I don't know who learned it from..."

The football in the top of the glory flew towards him, and he opened his hand and caught the football.

"There is a question, Rong, you are not sure about the timing of hitting the ball. You are exerting too early, so when you hit the ball, your body is too forward, which makes you not fully exert force. Do you feel like this? You are pushing the football away before you even exert force?" He said to Rongguang.

Rongguang nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, coach. I was actually rubbing my forehead just now, not as a thrust. I'm too late."

Before, I jumped to the ball on the spot, and the position of the football was fixed. As long as I stood in the right position, it was actually easy to hit. However, this kind of football flew over in the air, it was not so easy to deal with. It was time to jump and exert force by myself and cooperate with the distance the football reached.

"Well, it's okay, it's the first time. The purpose of training is to make you more proficient. If you practice more, you can find the feeling. Come on, let's continue."

Magath threw the football over again with a pleasant look.

※※※

Although the assistant coach was supervised, the players were still a little absent-they could not suppress their eyes and glanced at the glory.

When I saw Rongguang and Magath's practice, I realized that it was the head coach who gave Rongguang a small training session to practice heading.

Judging from his movements of hitting the ball, it is quite standard. It seems that Rongguang has been practicing for a while.

Everyone thought of the extra training he gave him during the winter break, maybe he was practicing headers?

But... who did he learn from?

※※※

Half an hour of heading practice was over, and Rongguang gradually found the feeling of heading.

"Yes, your progress is fast, Rong. But heading the ball is the easiest way. We will practice heading the ball in the side direction tomorrow." Magath threw the football into the basket next to him, and the basket was thrown all over.

Rongguang also came over to help pick it up with a football.

"But who did you learn the heading skills?" Magath asked curiously.

"Milo." Rongguang replied.

"Miloslav Klose?" Magath was a little surprised.

Rong Guang nodded.

Magath suddenly realized: "No wonder..."

With Klose learning to head the ball, Rong found a good teacher. Klose's heading skills are indeed the best among German strikers.
