Prominence in Football Community

Obiang made this stupid foul at the end of the first half. If he can not be so impulsive, after entering the intermission, Di Francesco will challenge him, and he may not be able to reverse the situation. .

The result is better now. His impulsiveness caused Sampdoria to play more with less in the second half. Di Francesco's prepared adjustments also lost their meaning, and had to be rearranged, and there was much less room for maneuver. It was simply a wrong step, a wrong step, and the team fell into a disadvantageous situation of being completely passive.

Obiang himself must be very aware of how bad the impact of his foul is.

So when he fouled, he begged the referee for a long time, hoping to be merciful, and he promised that he would never do it again.

But the referee Osado ignored his words and still firmly showed him a second yellow and red card and sent him off.

He still refused to leave, and was finally persuaded by the captain of the game, Palumbo.

When the Sampdoria players returned to the locker room depressed, they saw Obiang sitting alone in front of his cabinet crying.

Two lines of tears hung on the cheeks, shining against the lights of the dressing room.

Seeing his teammates in a bad mood, he cried even more sadly.

He is obviously aware of how much trouble his mistakes will bring to his teammates. All their efforts in the Coppa Italia are likely to be in vain because of his impulsiveness.

He will be the sinner of the whole team.

Everyone was indeed in a low mood, but they were still very surprised to see Obiang crying into tears. They looked at him a little helplessly.

At this moment, Gao Zheng walked in.

He smiled when he saw this scene: "What are you doing?"

His chuckle broke the awkward atmosphere in the locker room, and everyone turned their attention to him.

With everyone watching, Gao Zheng went straight to Obiang.

He leaned over and patted Obiang on the shoulder on the stool: "It's not your fault alone, it's the fault of our whole team. After all, as a midfielder, you always need to clean up for our mistakes in the frontcourt." Ass. Don't worry about it, Pedro."

Obiang raised his head,

Said to Gao Zheng with a teary voice: "But, but Gao... We are one less now, we..."

Gao Zheng interrupted his sobbing: "What's one less person? It's not like four people are missing-that would be a direct penalty. It's not a big deal, Pedro. We will win, we said we will win If you are a champion, you must win a championship."

He curled his lips, speaking lightly.

Palumbo stood at the back, his teammates were all in front of him, and they watched Gao Zheng comfort Obiang together. Hearing him say these words with a disdainful tone, the mood that was still a little low before slowly improved.

It seems that one less person is really not a problem, and being beaten by the opponent is not a problem.

He looked down at the captain's armband on his arm. Originally, he was supposed to do this. He was the captain.

But he is sure that first of all, he can't say things like "It's nothing to lose one person" and "If you want to win the championship, you must win the championship", and secondly, even if he can say it, it probably won't have the current effect .

His captain... is really incompetent.

"Gao is right!" Di Francesco's voice sounded behind everyone, including Obiang and Gao Zheng.

Their head coach was standing in front of the locker room.

"I want to remind everyone that this is the final of the Coppa Italia. Since it is the final, how can you win the championship with ease and smooth sailing? Otherwise, what is the gold content of this championship, and why is it worth pursuing?" Di Francis Coe walked in as he spoke, closing the locker room door behind him.

"In the second half, we lost one person. This is indeed a problem, but it is not a big problem. It is normal to have problems, and it is to solve it. If there are fewer people, then everyone will run a little more to make up for the disadvantage of one less person. I know that this will cause problems for everyone's physical fitness, but that is also a small problem. Compared with physical problems, psychological problems are big problems. Why are we playing so embarrassingly when we are leading by two goals? , Isn’t it because we are too careless? Isn’t it because we are too relaxed that we are slack?” Di Francesco walked to Gao Zheng and Obiang step by step, and turned to face all the players.

"Let me tell you, a football game is a very simple thing - how much you give in the game, you get as much as you want, what kind of attitude you have in the game, what kind of game you get. We started with a concentrated mind, With a clear goal and one mind, we were able to score two goals in five minutes. But then we got distracted and stopped taking the game seriously, and the game punished us right away. So remember the lesson... and I had to Fortunately, when we made mistakes, there was still half a game to correct our mistakes. As long as we regain the rhythm of the game in the second half, I firmly believe that the victory still belongs to us. After all, don’t forget, we are still leading now!”

Before this game, Di Francesco really felt that reaching the final was considered a task. But after the first half of the game, his mind changed.

The team started off so well, why not fight for the championship?

If the opponent is strong and performs well, then he can accept losing the game in the end, and he will not be upset or painful at all.

Now that he sees the hope of winning the championship, what's the point of saying "it's not bad to be a runner-up"?

Meanwhile, in Fiorentina's dressing room, their coach Montella was also cheering on his players.

"They had one player less than us for a full 45 minutes of the second half, and we got a goal back. Now they are scared! As long as you can keep putting pressure on them in the second half like you did in the second half of the first half , I believe they will collapse soon!" Montella clapped his hands and said loudly.

His players nodded as they listened, convinced by what the head coach had said.

Because the first half of the game perfectly proved their coach's words.

If it weren't for only forty-five minutes in the first half, they should have been able to equalize and enter the intermission.

But fortunately, before the end of the first half, the opponent's main defensive midfielder was successfully sent off with a red card.

Originally, if they just pulled back a goal, they would still worry that Di Francesco would make some targeted adjustments and deployments after entering the intermission to re-squeeze their advantage.

But Obiang's red card will definitely disrupt Di Francesco's plan, which is their advantage in reversing the game in the second half.

※※※

During the intermission, in the stands and in the rest area, the fans of both sides showed two completely different emotions.

The Naples fans, who were behind in the score, were in high spirits. They got together to discuss the first half of the game and looked forward to the second half.

And the Sampdoria fans who were clearly leading the score were all frowning, as if they were the one behind.

Borata's son also said to his father worriedly: "Dad, will we..."

"Shut up!" Borata interrupted her son, "Trust Gao no matter what!"

But he also sighed in his heart, wondering if Gao Zheng could still lead this time.

He still firmly believes in his own judgment, Gao Zheng should not stay in Sampdoria, his leaving Sampdoria is a good choice for him.

Although he is a Sampdoria fan, he doesn't want to see Gao Zheng tied to Sampdoria all the time...

He hoped that Gao Zheng could leave Sampdoria as soon as possible and make some achievements on a bigger stage. When the time comes, the whole world will know him, and naturally they will all know that he went out from the Sampdoria club in Genoa.
