Alberto De Rossi is watching a video of another semi-final - one he sent his assistant referee to Varese to film.

All his eyes were on the tall man in the Sampdoria formation.

Gao Zheng.

He is no stranger to this man.

Old De Rossi is an experienced youth training coach who has worked in the Rome youth training camp for 20 years. It can be said that every young player who comes out of here has devoted his efforts. He is a respected man at the Roma club, and of course he has another widely known identity-he is the father of Roma vice-captain Daniele De Rossi.

The old De Rossi, who has been in the youth training for 20 years, of course knows Gao Zheng very well. You must know that Roma U16 also played against AC Milan U16. Although the old De Rossi was not the head coach of Roma U16 at that time, he had also heard of Gao Zheng's outstanding performance in this age group.

Because of Gao Zheng's performance in the U16, the old De Rossi also planned to poach AC Milan's corner.

But then Gao Zheng was seriously injured, and this plan was naturally abandoned.

Later, Gao Zheng was not kicked out of the AC Milan youth training camp, and the old De Rossi also forgot about him.

I didn't expect to see him in the Sampdoria reserve team now...

De Rossi Sr. is curious what happened in between.

Judging from the video, Gao Zheng is a little different from before. His skills and awareness are still excellent, but he is not as active in running.

This is easy to understand-the lack of physical fitness limits his running.

After learning that Gao Zheng came off the bench for every game in the Sampdoria reserve team, the old De Rossi knew that Gao Zheng's physical fitness must be his weakness, otherwise such an outstanding player would not be allowed to start. It's a substitute, the head coach who did this must have a hole in his head...

There is a problem with physical fitness, which is something that Rome can take advantage of.

He knew that Gao Zheng came off the bench in the games against the AC Milan reserve team, and he scored a hat-trick after coming off the bench.

But in De Rossi's view, AC Milan's biggest problem is that it failed to score a goal for a full 45 minutes in the first half. If AC Milan can score even two goals, the situation will be different after Gao Zheng plays.

This is something Rome needs to be aware of.

When Gao Zheng was still on the bench, Roma must score first and try to score as many goals as possible.

Thinking of this, Old De Rossi began to write and draw on the notebook in front of him, recording his thoughts.

But he stopped after writing a few sentences and resumed playing tape of the Sampdoria reserve team vs. Varese reserve team.

He realized that he had overlooked a problem before - he was only paying attention to Gao Zheng's performance, but ignored Sampdoria's defense.

Judging from the overall performance of Sampdoria this season, defense is not what they are good at. But there is a very strange phenomenon. In the last few games, the defense of the Sampdoria reserve team has had a completely new performance.

They withstood the violent bombardment of AC Milan for a full forty minutes.

In the just-concluded semi-final, it can be seen that their form is not very good, but even so, they only conceded one goal in the first half, and the Varese reserve team stepped up their offensive after scoring. , Facing their indiscriminate bombing, the Sampdoria reserve team did not concede a goal. They successfully defended the score of 0:1 until halftime. It laid the foundation for Gao Zheng's appearance in the second half.

In other words, when Gao Zheng cannot start, Sampdoria's defense is very important. If Gao Zheng only played when the team fell behind by two or three goals every time, then Sampdoria could still make it to the final, and Gao Zheng might be drained...

It seems that Bruni has made some targeted adjustments to Sampdoria's defense,

And it was quite successful.

don't know how he did it...

So the question now facing the old De Rossi is how to make the Roman reserve team take the lead and score more goals against the Sampdoria reserve team.

Old De Rossi was lost in thought.

When Gao Zheng pushed open the door of the "Sailor's House" Focaccia store, he saw the smiling fat face of the fat boss Borata, who was as cute as freshly baked bread.

"Gao, you're here!" He opened his arms as a welcome gesture.

"Boss, why are you so happy today?" Gao Zheng was very surprised.

"Because we reached the final!" Borata said.

Gao Zheng was happy. He wanted to lead the team to win the championship. Wasn't it just to make Sampdoria fans like Fat Boss happy and to dilute their inner pain and disappointment about the team's relegation?

Now I didn't expect that the champion hadn't been won yet, and I saw a smile on the face of the fat boss.

"It's just the final, boss, it doesn't mean we can win the championship."

"That's enough to be happy, besides... With you here, is the championship still a problem?" While talking, Borata wrapped the foka that Gao Zheng wanted. "I must go and see it then!"

Gao Zheng was taken aback: "The final is at Rome's home stadium, boss..."

Hearing what Gao Zheng said, Borata was taken aback for a moment, then frowned and said, "Really?"

"Can I still lie to you, boss?"

Borata pondered for a while, and said as if she had made up her mind: "I still want to see it!"

"That's Rome, boss... we're away, and the game is at night..." Gao Zheng wanted to remind the boss that if he insisted on going to see it, the time might not be easy to arrange. Could it be that he played for the reserve team? If you have to stay in Rome for one night for the game, it will be a big loss.

"I know, I'm going to drive right back from the game," Borata said.

"Drove back to Boliasco overnight from Rome?" Gao Zheng's eyes widened.

He didn't know exactly how far it was from Rome to Boriasco, because he had never had such an experience. In fact, he can't even drive a car... and he can't even imagine what it's like to drive so far at night alone.

"It's not a big deal, I used to do it when I was young." Borata shrugged. "And I have Franco."

Franco, the boss's son standing beside him, smiled at Gao Zheng.

Gao Zheng also smiled back.

"The two of us took turns driving, and it's not as scary as you think."

Gao Zheng had nothing to say: "Okay, boss. Just wait and see us win the championship."

Polata waved his hands again and again: "Don't put too much pressure, Gao. Just play according to your usual rhythm. You and the team have performed well enough. I went to the game just to express my support for you, not for Putting pressure on you."

Gao Zheng smiled and said, "No, boss. We didn't increase the pressure. We wanted to win the championship."

When Gao Zheng left the store, his son Franco said to his father, "He looks really confident."

Borata asked his son, "What do you think of the focaccia I made?"

Although Franco was a little strange, he still answered honestly: "Of course it's very good, Dad..."

"No, it's not very good. The focaccia made by your father and I is the best in Boriasco!" Borata straightened up his fat body when he said this, although it looked similar to There was no difference before... "When you have a craft like mine, you can also be so confident. So with high ability, he is certainly qualified to be so confident."

"Dad, you can just say that Gao's strength is outstanding. Why are you talking about Focaccia?" Franco was puzzled.

"I hope you will improve your skills and take over my class as soon as possible! Otherwise, your father and I will die of exhaustion?" Borata blew his beard and stared, really angry at his stupid son.

PS, Messi and Ronaldo bid farewell to the World Cup on the same day, I am very sad.

I posted my views on this matter in the official account linhaitingtaoge linhaitingtao11, so I won’t say much here.

Today's competition continues, and X**C activities continue:

In the game between Spain and Russia, although Russia is the host, I am more optimistic about the strength of Spain. The coaching change does not have that much impact on them. Although the group stage is not very convincing, they can reach the knockout stage adjustable.

I am optimistic about Spain's two-goal win over hosts Russia.

Croatia vs Denmark match, I think Croatia will beat Denmark by one goal.
