Training Hard, Even When in the Face of Adversity

Although Zachary was quite worried about his grandma's condition, he still forced himself to continue his targeted training. He couldn't afford to relax since he was determined to master the step-over skill before Rosenborg's next game against Juventus.

He'd already completed 99% of the mental conditioning and 97% of the physical training required to grasp the juju. So, if nothing unexpected transpired, he would be a proud bearer of a phenomenal defense-splitting dribbling technique in roughly three days.

That day, Zachary was busy in the gym working on strengthening his lower body under the guidance of Coach Bjørn Peters, his fitness trainer. Even though it was the second day off for the Rosenborg players to rest and recover from the match fatigue, he still gave his all during practice.
