Prominence in Football Community

After the team game started in the afternoon, sports manager Doriano Tosi quietly came to the sidelines of the training field.

Reserve team coach Bruni saw him: "I thought you weren't coming, Mr. Manager."

"How is it possible?" Tosi spread his hands. "I still want to see Icardi! You know, the club is very optimistic and concerned about his future. How is his performance in the game?"

He looked to the pitch.

"Very positive, very active," Bruni said. "The level is good."

Hearing this comment, Tosi grinned: "Not bad! It's true that he came from La Masia! If his style was not compatible with Barcelona, ​​how could he be snatched by us. What is the score now? "

"1:0."

"Did Icardi score the goal?"

"No, it's tall."

Hearing this answer, Tosi was surprised.

※※※

On the court, Icardi looked very angry. He had just had a shot saved by the opponent's goalkeeper Dejan Bregassi, which caused him to still not score. And Gao Zheng has already led him 1:0 in the number of goals.

Marcy applauds goalkeeper Bregassi: "Good job, Dejan!"

Then he looked at Gao Zheng, the tall man standing in front.

He thought of Gao Zheng's promise to him during lunch.

You don't have to worry, Alberto, I will do my best for this afternoon's game.

And then he scored a goal in the opening...

※※※

"Is it a high goal?" Tosi confirmed it.

"Well, a beautiful shot," Bruni said. "He rounded a far corner and Tozo didn't respond to a save."

"How long has the game started now?"

"Five minutes have passed." Bruni said, looking at his watch.

Tosi cast his eyes on the tall and thin figure on the field.

※※※

It wasn't just Masi and Tosi who were watching Gao Zheng, Guo Wei was also watching the game on the other side of the field. This is the last day of Gao Zheng's trial training in the Sampdoria reserve team. In any case, there will be a result in the end.

Gao Zheng entered the state from the very beginning of the game and scored that beautiful goal.

But Guo Wei did not cheer for him.

Because he can't help but think of everything they experienced in Sassuolo.

The louder the cheers now, the more painful it will be to be slapped in the face.

His heart is full of worries, and he has been worrying about one thing in the past few days-since they were recommended by the coach of Sassuolo, and the other party is friends with the head coach of the Sampdoria reserve team, then they must be in private We have exchanged information about Gao Zheng. So Sampdoria also knew about the Milan laboratory. Will they be like Sassuolo, no matter how outstanding Gao Zheng's ability is, but reject him because of the authoritative recognition?

He turned to look at the opposite coach Bruni. This coach seemed to have no expression on his face forever, and he couldn't see emotions, and it was the same now. It is almost impossible to read his heart through the changes in his expression.

On the other hand, the sports manager next to him seemed to be thinking about something, frowning.

That expression was not a good sign.

Icardi finally scored. After receiving a pass from his teammate in front of the goal, he slid across Alberto Massi sideways. After avoiding the angle, he shot a low shot. The football rolled into the goal against the turf. Although Bregassi made a save, But still failed to keep Icardi's shot out.

After the goal, Icardi looked very excited. He turned to Gao Zheng, then roared and waved his fists. Perhaps it was because he knew that this was the last day of Gao Zheng's trial training here, and Icardi no longer controlled his emotions.

And what his action means, everyone understands.

Seeing his appearance, Gao Zheng smiled with his hands on his hips.

※※※

It stands to reason that after Icardi scored a goal, the sports manager Tosi should be very happy, because he came to see Icardi's performance.

But now Tosi's eyes were all on Gao Zheng.

Unknowingly, the target of his inspection was changed from Icardi to Gao Zheng in the trial training.

At this time, he no longer thinks about the Milan laboratory. He just wants to see what kind of performance this former genius can show in the face of the aggressive Icardi.

※※※

Icardi's roar made the game suddenly tense.

The two sides fought fiercely, and the rhythm of offense and defense changed very quickly. Football is flying around, it looks very lively, but in fact there are not many opportunities.

Icardi, who scored the goal, was in good condition. With his excellent shooting skills, he took another shot, but this time his shot was caught by goalkeeper Bregassi.

Icardi was very dissatisfied with his missed goal. He put his head in his hands and was very annoyed.

Seeing that Icardi missed the goal, Massi shouted to Bregassi: "Pass the football to the devil!"

Bregassi looked up and saw that Gao Zheng had retreated to the center circle.

He kicked the football up with a big foot.

The football went straight to Gao Zheng in the middle circle.

The midfielder of the red team wearing a red vest saw that the football was indeed flying towards Gao Zheng, so he ran up to interfere with him receiving the ball.

With his back to the attacking direction, Gao Zheng raised his right foot, faced the goalkeeper's vigorous kick, and unloaded the ball calmly.

The football didn't bounce off, but obediently followed Gao Zheng's right foot, slowing down and falling.

Gao Zheng also completed the turn while stopping the ball. When he stopped the football with his right foot, the whole person also completed the turn and turned to face the attacking direction.

The defensive player who was going to come up to interfere with him was pushed behind by Gao Zheng's turn.

"This stop is really stable!" Sports manager Tosi couldn't help admiring when he saw this scene on the sidelines. Facing such a strong high ball, it would take a little effort for others to stop, which is even more difficult if it is good. up. But Gao Zheng stopped easily, and even stopped and adjusted, directly combining the stopping of the ball with the next move, simplifying the steps of catching the ball, saving a lot of time, and creating opportunities for him to get rid of the defense in the next step.

This reminded him of the first time he saw Gao Zheng stop Icardi's powerful volley from the sidelines.

What a stroke of genius.

※※※

After Gao Zheng stopped the ball perfectly, he dribbled the ball away from the first defender. When the second defender came towards him, he quickly passed the football, allowing the opponent to miss it.

After passing the ball, Gao Zheng continued to run forward, but not very fast, and did not use a fast sprint to attract the attention of defensive players.

His opponents had their eyes on the man with the ball while he sauntered toward the penalty area.

It wasn't until the football was passed from the center to the side, and then back to the center, that everyone realized that Gao Zheng had quietly run to the front of the penalty area.

Facing the flying football, he swung his right foot sideways.

"Stop him!" shouted goalkeeper Andrea Tozzo.

The two defenders of the red team immediately gathered around Gao Zheng. Through the training and futsal matches of the past few days, they have fully realized the threat of Gao Zheng. How dare they take it lightly?

The two intercepted head-on, as if closing the door, trying to block Gao Zheng's shot!

Everyone thought that Gao Zheng would shoot directly, no one doubted this.

But when the football flew over, Gao Zheng's right foot didn't volley vigorously, but used the outside of his foot to pad the ball to the outside!

The football flew directly to the empty position in the rib of the penalty area. There was not a single defensive player of the red team there, but there was a player wearing a blue Sampdoria jersey!

Moreno Beretta!

He received a pass from Gao Zheng without any defense!

This is a great opportunity!

He stopped the ball that Gao Zheng was bouncing, and then took a shot!

The football was blocked by the goalkeeper Tozo, but it still flew into the goal with a broken line!

The blue team equalized the score!

※※※

"Huh?" Doriano Tosi was stunned. "He didn't shoot?"

Bruni, who usually has no expression, laughed: "Ha! This kid!"

"No... why didn't he shoot?" Tosi turned and asked Bruni.

"It's because everyone thinks like you that he didn't shoot. After Mauro Icardi challenged him, everyone thought he was going to hit back with a goal...but he drew all the defensive attention to himself. When he was playing, he took aim at the space and passed the football... This kid has a high IQ!" Bruni explained to the sports manager.

"But isn't he competing with Icardi?"

"Perhaps Gao doesn't think so?"

Tosi was speechless.

Bruni sighed: "Icardi may be a pure shooting machine. He only has goals in his eyes, but Gao can see more..."
