Gao Zheng really saw the fat boss and his son on the sidelines of the court on the day of the match.

He was warming up on Sanquan Stadium when he heard someone calling his name loudly.

He followed the prestige, and saw the fat boss Borata and his son, who were wearing Sampdoria jerseys, and then turned around together to show Gao Zheng the number and name printed on the back of the jersey:

40.

GAO.

Gao Zheng was delighted—this is his jersey number and name.

This father and son are so cute...

Then he turned his attention back to the heat.

While Borata and his son were about to return to their seats, at this moment, they ran into Clariant Moretti.

"Are you coming to watch the game too?" Both of them asked in unison.

Then they looked at each other and smiled.

"Your bakery is closed today?" asked Moretti, who was fatter than Burrata.

"It's just closed for one day, it doesn't matter." Borata said nonchalantly. "How did you get here?"

"Take the train..."

"That's great, let's go back in our car after watching the game!" Borata said enthusiastically.

Moretti's eyes widened: "You guys came here by car?"

"certainly."

"Oh my God...it's hundreds of kilometers!" Moretti thought the father and son were crazy.

"Fortunately, it's less than 500 kilometers, and it will take four and a half hours." Borata still didn't care. "When we go back together, there will be someone to chat with. I'm afraid I'll fall asleep then..."

Moretti naturally welcomed this way of saving travel expenses. He nodded without hesitation and said, "No problem, let's chat with you, lest you drive your car into the sea, haha!"

After warming up and returning to the locker room, Bruni announced the starting lineup for the game to the whole team.

To everyone's surprise, Gao Zheng, who used to be a substitute every game, actually started this game!

"Yeah!"

It was not Gao Zheng himself who cheered, but Alberto Massi. Of course, he was not alone. Other players were also very happy when they heard that Gao Zheng was starting.

In fact, they may hope that Gao Zheng can start more than Gao Zheng himself.

When Gao Zheng heard that he was starting the game, his first reaction was not surprise, but surprise: "Hey, coach, can I play the whole game now?"

Marcy elbowed him next to him: how do you talk? Shouldn't the head coach be thanked at this time? You ask, what if the head coach reconsiders your starting decision?

Bruni shook his head and said: "Starting does not mean playing the whole game. If you have physical problems, I will definitely replace you."

"Oh, that's it, I see." Gao Zheng nodded.

After Bruni finished reading the starting list, he began to give everyone the final instructions for the game.

"The Roma team probably didn't expect that we would let Gao start this game, so their original tactical arrangement should be to attack with all their strength after the opening, relying on the home court advantage, hoping to break the deadlock as soon as possible and try to score a few more goals. So they Defensively, it's not as good as it is offensively ... that's our opportunity."

"It is to let us score goals as soon as possible, and the more goals the better." Gao Zheng interjected.

Bruni nodded: "Yes, attack at the beginning, don't be weak if you can score goals."

When he said these words, he looked straight at Gao Zheng, the eager anticipation in his eyes, even a fool could see it.

This made Icardi, who was sitting on the other side, a little jealous-because he is the top scorer in the team, but everyone is always used to putting their expectations on Gao Zheng.

He admits that Gao Zheng is very powerful, but he doesn't think there is much difference between himself and Gao Zheng,

He even thought that he and Gao Zheng were on the same level, much higher than other Sampdoria reserve players.

So why does even the head coach turn his attention to Gao Zheng instead of himself when he is looking forward to scoring a goal?

Icardi was suffocating in his heart and wanted to prove it to everyone in the game, especially to the head coach Luciano Bruni. Maybe in other aspects, Gao Zheng is a little more comprehensive than him, but the goal He Icardi is a professional!

In football matches, starting players often have to wait for the referee to lead them into the field, but substitute players have no such problem. They can leave the locker room early, enter the field of play, sit down on the bench, and wait for the game to start.

So when the head coach of the Rome reserve team De Rossi came out and found that Gao Zheng was not on the bench of the Sampdoria reserve team, he realized that Gao Zheng was starting this game!

This surprised him.

Based on his analysis of Gao Zheng, he believes that Gao Zheng's physical fitness is a big problem, so big that Bruni, the coach of the Sampdoria reserve team, can only let him come off the bench in every game, and dare not let him start, and then play full time. field.

This made Gao Zheng the "super substitute" of the Sampdoria reserve team this season.

You must know that in the regular season, the schedule is not too dense, so you can't start.

The playoff schedule is more intensive, especially now that the main game has started, there are three to four days between the quarterfinals and the semifinals, and only three to four days between the semifinals and the final.

Such an intensive event requires higher physical fitness of the players.

Since Gao Zheng's physical fitness is already poor, why did the head coach of the Sampdoria reserve team let him start in this final?

You must know that he participated in all the games in the previous playoffs. Although they were all substitutes, it did not mean that he had enough time to rest.

Moreover, the Sampdoria reserve team is away in the playoffs, running back and forth, which consumes a lot of their physical energy.

How could Gao Zheng still have enough physical fitness to start the finals in such an environment?

He turned to look at the coaching bench of the Sampdoria reserve team.

He felt that he could see the problem, and Bruni, the head coach of the Sampdoria reserve team, couldn't have missed it.

So why would he do it?

On the bench of the Sampdoria reserve team, Tosi, the sports manager who followed the team to the away game in this game, also asked Bruni strangely: "You let Gao start? Has his physical fitness reached the standard? "

There was a hint of excitement in the surprised tone - because if Gao Zheng's physical fitness is fine, it will also clear the last obstacle for him to go to the first team.

But Bruni shook his head: "Of course it didn't meet the standard, but if we want to win this game, we can only let Gao start. If we put him on the bench as usual and let him play again in the second half, it is possible. His appearance has already lost its meaning. The strength of the Roman reserve team is very strong. In order to defeat them, we have to choose to take risks..."

Sure enough, after listening to Bruni's explanation, Tosi was a little disappointed.

Bruni could feel Tosi's disappointment. He continued: "After this season, he will be transferred to the first team anyway. His physical fitness and strength improvement is a long-term process. If possible, I suggest Let him start off the bench, it will be less pressure on him."

Tosi nodded again and again: "No problem, I will pass it on to the head coach of the first team, Atezori..."

Just a few days ago, the Sampdoria club announced that former Reggina coach Gianluca Atezori became the team's new head coach, shouldering the important task of leading the team to upgrade next season.

"But the most important thing is to give him enough playing time, instead of just throwing him on the bench and leaving him alone. In fact, the second division is a good training occasion for players of this age, and other giants are It is a very lucky thing to loan their young talents to the second division team to play, we don't have to rent from the rich teams, we have our own talents." Bruni babbled as if explaining the funeral .

But Tosi didn't hear the emotion in Bruni's words, he just kept nodding: "No problem, no problem, Luciano. I promise to let the first team treat Gao well, he is a genius, we can all see that ..."

※※※

It suddenly occurred to the old De Rossi that he had been thinking about why Gao Zheng would start, but ignored a more important question:

The tactics he arranged before were based on the basis that Gao Zheng would not start and Sampdoria would stick to it. Roma will launch a fierce attack at the beginning of the game, striving to score first and score more goals.

And now that Gao Zheng is starting the game, he has no time to adjust his tactics...

Is it possible that Rome is going to fight against Sampdoria?

PS, Spain was knocked out by Russia on penalty kicks...

Soccer is amazing!

However, Russia's performance in this game was indeed better than Spain's, with more fighting spirit.

In addition, Akinfeev really deserves to be the goalkeeper of Nottingham Forest!
