After listening to Song Zhicheng's detailed explanation, Rosen finally realized that the key to a striker's off-ball running ability is to find shooting opportunities, and his off-ball running attribute value is only 7, which makes it difficult for him to find opportunities to receive the ball and shoot after the opponent strengthens defense in the second half.
Rosen thought, if he can increase the off-ball running attribute value to a higher level, will it be easier to create gaps and get shooting opportunities? After all, his shooting attribute value is full, as long as he gets enough opportunities, scoring is a matter of course.
After leaving Song Zhicheng's office, Rosen used the break time to enter the system and added all 12 attribute points to off-ball running.
This move increased Rosen's off-ball running attribute value from 7 to 19, which is close to the full value.
At the same time, Rosen's attribute points have all been used up.
After the point addition operation is completed, Rosen's personal information and skill information are updated as follows:
Name: Rosen
Nationality: China
Age: 16 years old
Height: 182cm
Weight: 80kg
Level: 1
Experience: 120/200
Attribute points: 0
Club: Pulmes (Netherlands)
Shooting: 20
Off-ball movement: 19
In addition, the level gift package in Rosen's package has been updated to level 2, and it can only be opened after the level is upgraded to level 2.
Looking at his shooting and off-ball movement attribute values, Rosen is full of expectations and eager for the upcoming weekend game to come as soon as possible.
He is eager to verify whether his off-ball movement ability, which is close to full value, can play a role in actual combat, help himself achieve better performance and score more goals.
In the next few days, Rosen worked diligently in the restaurant and participated in team training on two mornings.
Amateur teams are naturally not comparable to professional clubs. Most of the players in the Pulmes team are part-time. Except for the weekend league, it is difficult to gather them during normal times, and even 7-a-side training matches are difficult to organize.
Even if there are players on the field for training, they fight alone and mainly reserve physical strength.
Therefore, Rosen's changes did not attract the attention of others, and he himself could hardly feel the actual effect of running without the ball at 19 o'clock.
In a blink of an eye, a week passed, and it was another Sunday. Pulmes challenged Bonigom away.
The venue is located at a football field about 3 kilometers southwest of Chinatown, which is a moderate distance.
As a Class D amateur team, Pulmes does not have a club bus, and the players need to go to the stadium from home or work to gather.
Players with better economic conditions choose to take taxis, those with average economic conditions take buses, and those who are more economical walk.
For Rosen, the 3-kilometer journey is not far, and he could have walked there.

However, since he was in the Netherlands and was playing away, he was not familiar with the road conditions, so he finally chose to take a taxi and memorize the route on the way so that he could walk on the way back to save money.
After arriving at the stadium, the coach and most of the teammates had already arrived. Everyone changed their clothes and started warming up before the game.
10 minutes before the game started, all the players gathered together and head coach Van der No began to arrange tactics.
The starting lineup did not change much compared with the last game, only one midfielder was replaced.
Although Rosen scored a goal in the last game, Van der No did not give it too high an evaluation, thinking that it was just luck.
After all, as a striker, Rosen only scored one goal in many games, which was not impressive.
Van der No's tactics were still to let Rosen feint and create space for Henik, with Henik as the end point of the attack.
However, this time Van der No did not emphasize letting Rosen shoot easily, but hinted that he didn't have to be polite when he had the opportunity, and he should shoot when he should shoot.
At 15:00 in the afternoon, the match officially began with the referee's whistle.
Rosen strictly followed the coach's tactical arrangement and tried his best to lead Bonigom's defender out of the penalty area to leave a gap for Henik to shoot.
However, this tactic did not work. Although the amateur league is not as good as the professional league in intelligence collection, the opponent still pays close attention to key players.
Bonigom focused on defending Pulmes' top scorer Henik.
As for the 16-year-old Chinese player Rosen, there was nothing special about him in the eyes of the coach and players of Bonigom, and he was not worthy of much attention.
Therefore, no matter how Rosen ran, he attracted very limited attention and failed to effectively reduce the defensive pressure faced by Henik.
In the tenth minute of the game, Henik only had one chance to shoot, but unfortunately he failed to hit the target.
At the same time, Bonigom also failed to score, and the two sides remained in a 0-0 deadlock.
However, in the thirteenth minute of the game, there was a turning point on the field.
The central defender of Pulmes fouled the striker of Pulmes in the penalty area, and the referee decisively awarded a penalty kick.
The opponent seized the opportunity and scored in one fell swoop, changing the score to 1-0.
Dozens of Bonigom fans on the sidelines cheered, while the Pulmes players seemed depressed.
At this time, Rosen's eyes were focused on the penalty area of the Bonigom team, with a thoughtful light flashing in his eyes.
In the past ten minutes, although he was carrying out the task of creating an opening for Henik, he found that he always ran into the empty position unconsciously, as if driven by instinct and difficult to control.
Although no teammates passed the ball at that time, Rosen analyzed himself and believed that if the ball fell to his feet, he would have a chance to shoot, and it would be difficult for the opponent to interfere because the distance was too far.
Rosen deeply realized the importance of off-ball running skills and decided to take the initiative to ask his teammates for the ball in the next game.
Just as the Bonigom team celebrated the goal and Rosen was about to adjust the tactics, a middle-aged man in his forties, car salesman Kenneth, passed by the football field.
Hearing the cheers in the field, he had just negotiated a deal and had no intention of stopping, but on second thought, he simply stopped to watch the football game.
So Kenneth walked into the stadium and sat down on a step in a corner to watch the game.
As the game restarted, Rosen's performance in off-ball running became more and more outstanding, and he frequently ran into gaps.
Considering that the opponent was only a Dutch amateur fourth-tier league team, Rosen easily found gaps with his 19-point off-ball running ability. This skill is at the top level worldwide.
Less than three minutes after the game restarted, Rosen ran into a gap in the ribs of the penalty area and signaled to his teammate Lanier who had the ball: "This way!"
Lanier hesitated for a moment, thinking about whether to pass the ball to Rosen or Henik, but it was precisely these two seconds of hesitation that Rosen's gap was fleeting and was intercepted by the defender.
Rosen sighed helplessly and continued to look for new running opportunities.
At present, he has not won the full trust of his teammates and can only proceed step by step.
Pulmes' attack failed to pose a threat and ended with another midfielder's long shot going wide.
However, with his 19-point off-ball running ability, Rosen will still have plenty of opportunities to run out of space when facing an amateur team like Bonigom that lacks tactical discipline.
Soon, Rosen had another good opportunity.
In the 21st minute, the two sides fought fiercely near the center circle, and four players were in a melee.
Suddenly, the football was kicked out of the crowd and rolled towards Pulmes forward Dominic.
Rosen reacted quickly, turned around and sprinted towards the Bonigom penalty area, shouting loudly while rushing: "Dominic, this way!"
Although there were still doubts about Rosen, he was about to form an offside at this time, and his chance was obviously better than Henik who was marked by two people.
Therefore, Dominic decisively passed the ball, facing the rolling ball, and made a long pass over the top.
The ball flew into the air, flew over the head of the Bonigom midfielder, and fell to the front of the penalty area.
At the moment when Dominik passed the ball, Rosen just surpassed the defense line of Bonigom and rushed to the point where the ball landed.
The linesman did not raise the flag to indicate offside, which was a successful anti-offside tactical execution.
