Just after the end of the whistle.

Kim Shin-woo hardly broke up from the shock.

'What was it just?

Shinwoo Kim.

He was a defensive prospect with the potential to win a defender award at the National High School.

But a 13-year-old attacker could not stop.

I've dealt with a lot of youth who have had excellent personality, but Woo Ho-young's personality was different.

flamboyance.

Yet, not crude, lean and speedy Marseille turn was.

'That's it's a genius.

I was convinced.

Why is the press so crazy?

'You're good at it. A lot of···.'

I had no choice but to admit my skills.

Then I remembered what I said to Hoyoung this morning.

'옘병.'

It was a black history.

'You're such a idiot, why do you say that? I'm embarrassed by choding. '

If you don't want to be right, you have to say goodbye

I wanted to erase it from my memory.

I couldn't see the team members.

Armband attached to the forearm was a moment of shabby boundless.

By the way.

In the meantime, it was a voice of goodwill that broke the silence.

"Thank you."

"Oh, yeah yeah."

Ho-young is the first to come and say hello.

Kim Shin-woo was not so bad despite defeat.

If you're sorry, you'll have a hard time, but the basic difference is so obvious that I couldn't feel it.

Woo Ho-young also hoped for his personality at a young age.

To the face that looks good enough to leak there.

Above all, Kim Shin-woo likes football players.

Whether you're 10 or 100 years old, you're good at playing soccer.

Kim Shin-woo's hand turned to Ho-young's shoulder.

"Good job. 13 years old? "

"Yeah."

"How do you do so well?"

It was ridiculous but I was really curious.

But Hoyoung's words were more spectacular than that.

"haha. I can do well even if it's not right. "

"Yes······. like that······."

Kim Shin-woo nodded.

It was an irrefutable word.

It was a strict Korea between seniors and juniors, and after a long time, the word "difficult" was sounding on the pitch.

After finishing greeting with Kim Shin-woo, Ho-young headed to another place.

There was a player who wanted to shake hands.

But to my surprise, I didn't have to go there.

"Good work."

Lee Chung-ryong, because he came first.

"You suffered."

Ho Young was full of heart.

It's because I miss Korean greetings, but my favorite player was shaking hands.

Of course, less trembling than Neymar, but the so-called Gukbong made the flutter more exciting.

"Please, please."

"Ha ha ha ha ha. What's so hard? Relax, relax. "

Lee Cheong-ryong, who smiles brightly while protruding her teeth, was kind, unlike her known personality.

For now.

He also gave Hoyoung a nice present.

'Excellent composure (B-).'

First day of the national team.

It was a great start.

Sunday, March 20.

Montaigu is a county-sized region located in the French jurisdiction.

There is an old-fashioned landscape centered on the river, where football dream trees under the age of 16 gathered from all over the world.

To participate in the Mondial Football Montague Tournament, which will open on the 23rd.

The competition, held annually in Montague, France, is so historic that it marks its 32nd anniversary this year.

The prize was just as great as history.

There are Haji, Nedved, Henri, Pirlo, Ronaldo and Tevez.

It was the most famous and prestigious youth competition in Europe.

It's no surprise that youth scouts are coming from all over the world.

That's why they played their best games.

To catch their eyes.

To go to big league big club.

"As soon as you unpack, gather to the ground floor lobby."

Arriving at the Montague accommodation, the U16 national team headed for a nearby training ground as soon as they unloaded their luggage.

It was a facility given by a local club, Montague FC for a week, but there were limits to the training time as eight countries participated.

One minute to use without hesitation.

Manager Park Kyung-woo, who gathered the players to the field, opened his mouth.

"You know our first opponent is France."

At first, the first opponent was the host country.

So the players were nervous.

"We and France are the same age anyway. They eat bread, we eat rice, and nothing else. Don't be scared. "

This year France was not a strong candidate.

There have been reports that the athletes are much poorer than last year.

On the other hand, four people over the age of 16 were missing from the existing U17 team.

Lee Cheong-ryong and Kim Shin-woo, who have not yet passed their birthdays, could not participate in the team, but the team's power was not greatly reduced.

Moreover, the opponent is the host country.

It was clear that France would have to die for a successful opening game.

However, losing in this game does not mean you will drop out immediately.

The qualifiers are divided into Group A and Group B qualifiers. In each group, the first and second teams will advance to the tournament and play the semifinals.

Korea was in Group A with France, Germany and Ivory Coast.

'Our country's best was runner-up.'

Ho Young recalled the news he saw before returning.

It was the news that Korea won the runner-up, including Lee Seung-hoo and Jang Ji-won.

'Nothing can't be 2005.'

Of course, it was a matter of the opponents' power.

It was important how great a player was as a representative from France.

'indeed!'

Expectations were full.

I had already experienced my youth in Brazil, so I was confident that no matter who came out.

And best of all.

'I hope you know a lot of faces.'

Recalling the participating countries such as France, Germany, Japan, Portugal and England, it was expected to dry my mouth.

Isn't it a heaven for prospects?

It seemed to be a fun contest.

Three days later, March 23.

36,000-seat Maxim Maxime Bossis de Montaigu.

The temperature dropped to 5 degrees, but the home locker room was full of hot heat.

The energy was coming from the boys in blue uniforms.

He was the top team of France's U16 national team.

They were arguing to regain the championship glory from Japan, the champion of the previous year.

Among them was a poisoned boy.

Mamadou Sakho.

Currently active in the Paris Saint-Germain youth team, he was a 90-year-old defensive resource.

The nickname called among the players is beast.

The boy's spacious outing was telling why.

'Hua. It is expected. I want to run. '

With a black physical, he was already excited about winning.

Flaming eyes proved it.

A few minutes later.

When he stepped into the field, Sako lost his gaze to a boy with a sharp jawline.

I remembered a week ago telling the bishop to get into my ear.

-Watch out for a young boy named Woo-young.

'She got a ball in Brazil.'

However.

'What's different is that one is good.'

The opponent is Korea.

It is the Korean side of world football.

In the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup, he made a four-story myth, but that did not change Korea's image.

For Sako, Korea was just a weak meal, a meal.

However, there were some erotic issues.

At the very least, some of the team's key members suffered minor injuries during training and were unable to play today.

'It's okay if you don't have today. I can stop it. '

Sako did not doubt his skills.

All the preparations for chewing were over and ran over the pitch like an angry beast.

It was time to jump.

3 pm.

Warm sunshine fell on the field.

The opening match between France U16 and South Korea U16 was about to begin.

"Uoh oh oh!"

Half the crowd was showing how great the prize was.

Sako once again prepared.

'There must have been a lot of scouts. It's the opening game. '

Sako's gaze was fixed on a boy.

Woo-young Woo No. 7

'I was 93 years old?'

Three years younger than he saw the younger brother died.

'I don't want to cry. Scouts around the world will be watching. '

"Huh."

Beep!

The opening game began with the laughter of Sako.

Percussion.

It was central midfielder Quentin who started the game by kicking off.

At the same time, the players of the French U16 were scattered as if the eagles spread their wings.

The 4-3-3 formation, with two defensive midfielders, was intended to block Hoyoung's infiltration from the midfield.

South Korea, on the other hand, came in with a 4-3-1-2 formation.

'The opponent is two-top. Suk Hyung-joon and Woo Ho-young. '

Mamadu Saco, the core of the French defense, diligently stepped on the shadow of Roh Young.

The game was different than expected.

Naturally, contrary to the crowd's thought that France would prevail, a fierce fighting game was held.

The momentum was so strange that no one would win.

But as time went by, French midfielders took over the midfield and gained an edge.

Using the left and right sides to disturb the opponent with active movements, the central midfielder Quentin opened the offensive path by delivering the correct passes to both wings.

The wingers on both sides crossed the cross and plunged Korea into a mess of confusion.

The situation lasted until the first 15 minutes.

First 15 minutes.

The tight tug of war fights were inclined to one side.

Early in the midst of the midfielder, France began to take over 80% share.

'It's not a big deal.'

Sako was relieved that the team was winning, but was disappointed.

If it was a plan, it should have been noticed by the ace of the opposing team.

But this is what.

Woo Ho-young, Korea's ace, couldn't catch the ball properly for 15 minutes.

As the flow dropped in the mid-field, Korean attackers could do nothing like a screen.

'The director was so scared. These are really bad. '

At any rate, Korea was no match.

The bishop's words of being so careful did not make sense.

'This country is going to the semifinals in the World Cup. Isn't this too much? '

Sako, who was in the middle of the game, narrowed down her eyes.

Suddenly, the irritation started to soar.

'Because it's the host country, I went up there.'

Undisputed championship, 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup, when France was eliminated from the group stage.

However, because Korea is far from soccer, it was annoying to turn back to the quarterfinals.

'It was the worst World Cup ever.'

At that time, I felt nauseous.

This did not hate Korea.

I'm just grumpy.

'I am annoyed when I watch football with luck.'

Sako raised her desire to win from the wrong place.

And pledged.

I'll step on my skills.

'Since you are good at Jungwon, I only need to block the space. Then victory is won. '

As the pressure and interpersonal marks based on the monstrous physical were his organs, he was confident of tying up the goodwill.

But it was up to there to afford it.

Until Korea showed a tactical change.

Fuzzy!

"··· 큭!"

Woo Young.

Suddenly his movement slowed down, and at the same time he preoccupied the space and bumped his body.

'It's pretty hard.'

gulp.

Sako's milk ran up and down.

I did not have to panic though.

'I feel better compared to my age, not my level.'

In addition to the age difference of three, Woo-young's race of Asians gave Sako confidence.

The opponent was only a precocious Asian, saying, "I played in the game.

Continued to stick to Ho Young deliberately to induce a fight.

Stupidly.

Sako did not know what the real problem was.

Taa Aak!

"what!"

The midfielder that France was holding tightly became loose.

I watched something, and there was a lively movement in the background.

The position was a striker, but Ho Young went down to the second and got the ball.

Because of this, the pressure of the midfield was dispersed.

'That crazy guy.'

Hearty activity.

In terms of activity, even Sako's sadness was acceptable.

'쯧 ···. I run like that, and I have to get lost in the second half. '

But even after three minutes, five minutes, Hoyoung's reckless movement did not show signs of stopping.

While gasping for breath, both legs do not stop.

It was a fight.

And Sako was annoyed by it.

The opponent's midfield came alive after being hit, and the ball distribution to the front was slowly being made.

It was a situation that could lead to a mistake.

Sako tried hard to chase Hoyoung's butt, but that wasn't enough.

His off-the-ball movement was a very good level, cleverly looking for a gap.

'damn.'

What do scouts think about this ridiculous appearance?

It was obvious.

The attention given to Sako will be turned to Ho Young.

'I turned vain.'

So Saco had to do anything.

For the team, for myself.

"This rat! Don't run away!

Park provoked nervously, but Hoyoung did not hear.

At that moment Sako felt intuitive.

Somehow, the game is unstable, and somehow something seems to happen.
