I have to admit that Tottenham's South Korean striker Son Heung-min is currently a well-deserved "Asian brother", although the South Korean team is an old opponent of the national football team on the field, but they do have a lot to learn from. The arrogant personality is our impression of Korean players, but Son Heung-min is not close to such words, and the modesty of the Tottenham forward coupled with excellent skills has captured many domestic fans. Of course, he also has a time when he is not clear-headed on the field, impatient and malicious foul to apply for a red card.
The 2023 China Asian Cup has just released its emblem, which means that this intercontinental event held in China has entered the countdown, and Son Xingyu, who is far away in London, has also sent blessings, which shows that he is still relatively friendly to us. In addition, the national football team and the South Korean team in this round of 12 matches are not divided into a group, so there is no competitive relationship between the two teams for the time being, and there is not much contradiction between the two teams at present.
Recently, Sun Xingyu's father Sun Xiongzheng's new book "Everything Starts from the Basics" revealed a lot about Sun Xingyu's training, one small thing and one detail after another, explaining how Sun Xingyu succeeded and how an Asian became one of the world's top stars. As we all know, Son Heung-min's reverse foot is not obvious, the feet are more balanced, which is a very scary thing on the pitch, the left and right feet can open the bow means that the defender does not know which of your actions will shoot after one of your moves, and he does not know which foot will block you. If a defender knows you're a right-footed player, he'll deliberately block your right-footed shot or shot, but it's hard to defend against a player like Son.
At the same time, the left and right foot balance will effectively reduce the movement of adjustment between the time you take the ball and shoot, which can save valuable time for an attack. Sun Xingyu was able to have such balanced feet precisely because of Sun Xiongzheng's strict training for him and his own self-discipline. According to the book, Son Xingyu has begun to train with his feet at the age of 18, making 500 shots on each left and right feet every day. For ordinary players, 1,000 shots a day and 500 of them have to shoot with feet that they are not good at, which is boring and difficult, and ordinary people may have given up long ago, but strict division and self-discipline have created Sun Xingyu today.
Sun Xingyu's self-discipline is not only reflected in the training ground, but also in the private life outside the field is also very simple, Sun Xiongzheng told Sun Xingyu that he can only get married after retiring, so he has not had a girlfriend, some time ago was rumored to be a scandal with members of the Korean girl group, and finally it was clarified by both sides that it was basically fictitious. The same self-disciplined players, we can also think of C Ronaldo, not only on the training ground to maintain a high degree of concentration, but also in the usual diet also work hard, all the stars who go to C Ronaldo's home as a guest said that they do not want to go again, because his family can only entertain guests with chicken breast, although there are some exaggerated ingredients, but C Ronaldo is also a strict self-disciplined person, I believe that C Ronaldo and Sun Xingyu are the kind of like-minded people.
The experience of the South Korean striker is very inspiring to the national football team and domestic players, of course, we not only lack stars like Son Heung-min, but also fathers and coaches like Sun Xiongzheng. I don't know what the usual life of the national football team is like, but it is certain that there should be no one who works as hard as Sun Xingyu, and I hope that domestic players can also learn well.
