Chapter 6: Defense ! Defense !
At this moment, the commentator on the scene was reporting: "We see that Virton is about to make a substitution. They replaced the underperforming No. 13 Paul Chuck with No. 30, um... Wang Feng."
The commentator couldn't find detailed information about the player for a while but said, "This is a young player, um, very young. It should be a player from Virton's youth training, and it is the first time this season he represents the home team."
"The home team's coach seems to have given up on this game and replaced the experienced player with a young one to let him feel the atmosphere of the game. It seems that Virton Club will invest in training this player further. Let's see how he performs."
"I just received information that this player is from faraway China. He is only 16 years old this year. My God, he has broken the record for the youngest age to play in the Belgian Second Division. But is the high-intensity professional league really suitable for him?"
St. Gillian obviously also noticed this substitution. Their head coach asked the assistant next to him, "Do you have any information about this person?"
"No," the assistant next to him knew nothing about it, "But don't worry, presumably Paul Chuck's performance was too poor, so he was substituted from the second team."
The head coach of St. Gilles United also nodded, agreeing with this judgment. Mette Magritte should only let him exercise when using him at this time. With this in mind, he immediately walked to the sidelines and signalled the players of his team to continue to attack and to win a big victory.
Virton's team members were a little surprised. Although Paul's performance was poor, why did they replace him with Wang Feng, who was inexperienced? Only Renee cheered for him on the bench. Renee's luck is not very good, and he probably won't be able to play today.
Wang Feng is very clear-headed. His teammates on the field don't trust him very much. The coach also has a try mentality. His primary goal on the field is to make up for Paul's previous mistakes, strengthen his defence, and wait for opportunities to create threats.

To not be slaughtered by a big score; this is the main task of Wang Feng's debut. He stared directly at the No. 11 player on the wing of Saint-Gilles United, not far in front of him. He was very active in the game. Both goals were his crosses, and the opponent also looked at this new opponent, revealing a malicious look.
"I'm afraid you haven't been weaned yet, brat." The other party spat out trash talk without hesitation, but Wang Feng didn't care. He had received enough stares and trash talk during this time, and this couldn't shake him.
No. 11 was obviously a little surprised. I didn't expect this young player to be very calm, and he looked better than Paul.
The game restarted, and St. Giles United was still firmly in control of the situation. After the midfielder grabbed the ball, No. 11 raised his hand to ask for the ball. He decided to teach this rookie who had just come off the bench a hard lesson.
Wang Feng's gaze was fixed on No. 11, and he did not rush up blindly but deliberately kept a certain distance, observing his feet and body movements. No. 11 player saw that Wang Feng did not rush up rashly and didn't care. After stopping the ball, he immediately dribbled the ball towards Wang Feng.
Judging by his stance, he wanted to break through Wang Feng one-on-one and then make a pass from the bottom. This trick has been tried and tested on Paul before.
Just when he entered Wang Feng's defence zone, Wang Feng suddenly took a small step back. Before the opponent could react, he took a big step forward and approached the opponent's dribbling foot.
Wang Feng's physical confrontation was poor, but his speed was so fast that No. 11 was taken aback. He subconsciously stopped his body and stepped on the ball. After a feint, he moved the ball to his right foot. Unexpectedly, Wang Feng's step was also a feint, and he immediately retreated after taking the step, which invisibly shortened the distance between the two.
Seeing this, No. 11 dribbled the ball and wanted to break through. Unexpectedly, Wang Feng repeated his old trick this time and pressed forward. This time, the opponent did not stop but wanted to break through from the left. But Wang Feng took another step back suddenly, made a decisive decision, stood still with his left foot, and quickly poked out his right foot.
In the blink of an eye, No. 11 passed, but the ball was stabbed away. Virton's midfielder, who defended behind Wang Feng, quickly took control of the football.
The on-site commentary seemed a little surprised: "The No. 30 Wang who just came on the field actually completed a wonderful steal. Virton had been unable to do anything about St. Gillian's No. 11 before, but now Wang successfully curbed his threat."
The St. Gillian players were also a little surprised. They didn't expect to be defended this time. Is it a coincidence?
Mette Magritte, who was sitting in the coach's bench, was also very surprised. Wang Feng's handling of the ball gave him a feeling of surprise. By repeatedly going up and down to compress the opponent's attacking space, he did not lose his position. In the end, he poked the ball cleanly, and the whole process was like flowing water.
"You're nothing more than that." Wang Feng didn't forget to mock the opponent's No. 11 at this moment. This moment made him very angry. In front of many scouts, being intercepted by a rookie is undoubtedly extremely embarrassing.
"Let's wait and see." After saying a word viciously, the opponent's No. 11 turned and walked back. Wang Feng stared at the back of the other party and smiled coldly.
After the ball was tossed and turned several times, it was intercepted by the visiting team. The strength gap between the two sides is still very large. On the other hand, No. 11 of the opponent team was more active, taking the initiative to retreat to catch the ball, planning to break through again, and severely abuse the arrogant rookie.
He took full advantage of his speed, dribbled the ball along the right side, and quickly rushed towards Wang Feng. This time, Wang Feng couldn't use a feint to approach and steal, so he could only retreat to avoid losing his position.
The opponent quickly dribbled the ball to the front of Virton's penalty area, and suddenly dribbled the ball with his right foot to cut inside. Wang Feng then turned sideways to face the defensive target, and continued to retreat, blocking his way forward, but gave way to the right a lot of space on the road.
No. 11 couldn't help being overjoyed when he saw it. Sure enough, a rookie is a rookie. Such a simple fake move fooled him, so he suddenly buckled the ball with his right foot, and thrust forward with his left foot, directly changes direction, from inside cut to bottom.
But just when he was imagining the hat-trick of assists, a figure flashed in front of him, and Wang Feng, who was defending him, quickly cut in front of him. He blocked the way with his body, and then kept occupying the side walk space, forcing him to sprint to the bottom.
After Wang Feng blocked him, he took the lead in catching up with the ball, pushed the ball horizontally with his right foot, and passed the ball into the penalty area. The defender behind him also quickly followed up and cleared the ball.
After disrupting St. Gillian's ferocious offensive several times in a row, the sparse Virton fans in the stands also cheered up and applauded this little excessive player.
It was the first time Wang Feng felt the applause from the fans, and he was a little flattered. But when he turned his head and saw the depressed eyes of No. 11, he said with a smile, "I'm not Paul; your fake moves can't escape my eyes."
The head coach Mette Magritte on the sidelines was also very surprised that he actually defended. When did Wang Feng become so powerful? Wasn't his foundation always poor?
From these two handlings of the ball, it can be seen that Wang Feng's calmness, as well as his grasp of the timing of the game, are all eye-catching.
The assistant coach came over at this time and said: "We still underestimate him. Wang is still a child. He has unlimited possibilities and determination to work hard."
Magritte nodded, quite agreeing with this statement. "No matter what, you can give him more opportunities to play and observe him."
In the next period of time, St. Gillian continued to try to open a breakthrough from the side, but they were suffocated by Wang Feng time and time again. With the exhaustion of their physical fitness, they also had to slow down the rhythm, which led to the attack on Virton. The overall pressure is also reduced.
The time to fight back has come!
