Five days passed in the Ruhr derby with Schalke 04, Dortmund U19 ushered in the quarterfinals of the German Youth League Cup, and they played against Kobrentz U19 at home.

Mark did not start in this game, as if his performance in Schalke 04 did not play any role.

However, Mark was not thinking about a German Cup. How could he win that game now when he was full of his mind? He didn't care much about the mere Youth German Cup.

In fact, this German Cup is not worthy of much attention.

It was not just Mark who did not play. Zhou Yi also sat on the bench with Mark in this game.

Yebala made some adjustments to the team's lineup, and Dortmund was not the main force to play.

But they still defeated Koblenz U19 6-1 at home and successfully entered the semi-finals of the German Cup.

Schneider scored twice in the game and performed well. This made him feel relieved - after the game against Schalke 04, he was worried that his main position would be snatched away by Mark.

Now it seems that he was too worried. He is still the main striker of this team. Mark can only be a substitute if he performs well and has to be tortured in training.

Schneider was very satisfied with himself and Mark's current situation.

Before Dortmund's 22nd round of league matches against Aachen U19 away, Ricken found Yebala again.

"Hi Peter. How is your Trident plan going?"

Yebala thought about the performance of the three people in the game this week.

Although they still haven't won a single game, it can be seen from the third day that they have found the right path and have not changed, and they still insist on going like this.

So as long as he continues to train like this, he believes that these three people will sooner or later become real tridents.

So he said: "It's still going on, and it's already a little effective."

"Then I'm waiting for your good news, Peter." Ricken said with a smile.

※※※

Mark was on the roster in the away game against Aachen U19. However, according to Yebala's habit, he did not announce who would be on the starting list the day before the game.

He announced the starting list after the team arrived at the training ground at U19 in Aachen.

Starting from the goalkeeper, the starting list of this league is not very similar to the starting list of the previous German Cup, and some positions have been adjusted.

But this is normal.

In double matches a week, teams with competent teams will rotate.

Schneider looked at Mark with his squint eyes, and when he waited to call his name again, he cast the eyes of the winner.

"Mario Gotze."

"Zhouyi."

"Daniel Jinchek."

Head coach Yebala shouted one by one.

There is only the last place left. In Schneider's mind, this position belongs to him.

He waited for his name to be called out.

"Mark Wagner."

But in fact, this name is called out.

The expression on Schneider's face froze. He sat there motionlessly like a statue.

When he heard his name being called out, Mark was stunned for a moment. It was Zhou Yi next to him who poked him with his arm before he realized.

"Look, I'll tell you. Don't look at Schneider laughing happily at the beginning, now he's throwing away the starter!" Zhou Yi lowered his voice and said to Mark.

Mark was so impressed by Zhou Yi that he was so proud of him. When Zhou Yi said to himself that he would give him a great mission, it has now been fulfilled! In this way, the head coach tortured him with games, really to give him an important task - to serve as the starter in the official league!

First release!

I finally got the chance to start at U19!

After announcing the starting list, Yebala did not look at Schneider's dull face, but instead gave Mark, Zhou Yi and Gotze an additional reminder: "You three should keep in touch during the game."

He didn't say how to keep in touch with the three of them, but Yebala knew in her heart what to do, otherwise the game this week would be in vain?

※※※

When he appeared, Zhou Yi, Mark and Gotze walked together.

"What does the coach mean?" Mark asked.

"It means literally." Götze said.

"It's great. This is what we do in special training. Now we play like this in the game." Zhou Yi said, "Just use the way we practiced during this period of time to play."

"But...we are not very familiar with each other." Mark was a little worried.

"It's normal to make mistakes, Mark. But you must dare to try and do it. You are the striker, don't think so much. As long as you succeed once, you can score a goal." Zhou Yi comforted Mark, and finally he patted Mark on the shoulder, "Since you start, don't let Schneider get it back."

At the thought of Schneider, Mark nodded vigorously.

※※※

Whether it is the first team or the youth team, the strength gap between Aachen and Dortmund is very obvious.

Even Dortmund, without Zhou Yi, can easily defeat Aachen U19 away.

However, the progress of this game is not as easy as everyone thinks.

With a first goal, Dortmund let Aachen equalize the score soon.

Then he fell into a melee.

Why is this happening?

Well, this comes to the trio of Zhou Yi, Mark and Gotze.

They made frequent mistakes in the frontcourt attack, which dragged down the entire team's offense.

It can be seen that the three of them tried to play a quick pass and cut run when attacking the frontcourt. However, under the opponent's defense, their way of playing interspersed through the ball and running was greatly blocked. Moreover, the ability of the three of them still needs to be improved. Sometimes they thought about it, but they did not pass it well, but they did not run away after passing it well.

Schneider snorted coldly off the court. If Gotze was next to him, he would definitely ask him, "Schneider, do you have asthma?"

Schneider was very disdainful of the performance of the three people on the court - just this shit performance, why should I be the substitute?

He glanced at head coach Yebala and couldn't understand why Yebala let Mark replace him in the start.

However, he also felt that after seeing such a bad performance from the trio, Yebala might regret his decision and then switched himself to the court in the second half.

Well, I'm ready to start a killing!

※※※

During a dead ball, Mark found Zhou Yi: "Although the head coach asked us to keep in touch, it is really unreasonable to play like this..."

Zhou Yi nodded: "You are right, Mark. We can't just care about our own pleasure and put the whole team in crisis. So we have to help the team take the lead first, and then consider our affairs. Don't think too much about interspersed things, find a space, Mark."

"Okay, Zhou Yi. Also, this is not good at all."

Zhou Yi smiled: "Mark, don't you think it's a great thing to take a road in a place without road. Going to a place without people to see the scenery that no one has seen? Okay, don't think so much now, go and score goals, otherwise someone should have something to say again."

The next three people reduced the cooperation of fast passes and cuts. Before the end of the first half, Zhou Yi gave Mark a straight pass to the run-in. Mark decisively shot and knocked the ball into the goal of Aachen U19. Dortmund finally took the lead again!

Seeing this ball, Schneider slapped his thigh hard off the court, but he didn't dare to complain loudly, because at this time everyone was cheering for the team's lead. If he complained, he would become a public enemy...

But his dissatisfaction was fully reflected in the action of slapping his thighs hard.

Just as he was looking forward to the start of the second half, he saw Mark score a goal. The blow was really heavy...

※※※

During the halftime break, head coach Yebala did not comment on the trio's actions, neither compliment nor criticize, and was completely indifferent.

Of course, he didn't replace Mark.

Schneider's wish was dashed.

After the second half began, the three players still played like they did in the last stage of the first half.

In the 60th minute, Zhou Yi launched an attack, Mark assisted Gotze to score, and Dortmund U19 led Aachen U19 3:1 away.

Zhou Yi went up to Mark and Gotze to celebrate the goal. During the celebration, he said to the two: "Okay, now you can have fun!"

"What if the opponent scores another goal?" Mark asked.

"Then let's switch to normal mode." Zhou Yi said.

Gotze nodded in agreement with Zhou Yi's words: "Aachen is not strong enough. Of course we can't do this for a match like Schalke 04, but it would be a waste not to do this now. I think our special training needs to be tested and improved in such a fierce competition."

So when the game started again, the three of them returned to the beginning of the game, interspersing back and forth, trying to pass and cut quickly. Although there were still mistakes, it was no longer a worrying thing.

Because Dortmund is leading two goals now.

The two goals lead allowed other Dortmund U19 players to play calmly and easily. Even if the three players make any mistakes in cooperation, the others can make up for it quickly.

The hatred that Schneider watched off the court...

How could he not guess what this performance change means?

Isn't it just to block him?

Mark scored one goal and one assist, and such performance cannot be said to be bad.

With this performance as a base, they can do whatever they want.

mean!

Shameless!

Schneider cursed Mark and Zhou Yi in his heart. Of course, he scolded Zhou Yi more. He had already seen that Mark was the only one who followed Zhou Yi's leader, and Zhou Yi was the one who made the decision among these three people. He was full of bad water and had conspiracies and tricks.
Chapter completed!
