In the transfer market before the start of the new season, the clubs of Serie B, in addition to Cesena have a big transfer move, another team, ranked third in the standings last season, and finally participated in the promotion play-offs and failed Pescara in the transfer market!

Although the recruitment action is not as good as Cesena, but with the squad that won the third place in the league last season, it can be said that the strength of the new season is only strong and not weak, and it is the biggest opponent of Cesena to compete for the championship. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Of course, in addition to Pescara, there are several other teams that are also a certain threat to Cesena.

Roma Sports once wrote: Cesena, who seems to have a strong squad, may not be easy to make a difference in the new season.

In the opinion of Roma Sport, the management of Cesena is too anxious, they should wait a year, waiting for Chen Long and Zou Zhaolong, who began to rise last season, to train for a season, that is, to seek more next season!

In contrast to Cesena, Roma Sport is more optimistic about Pescara winning the title this season.

However, another media "Green" newspaper is not optimistic about Pescara, it believes that Pescara will play very difficult at the beginning of the new season, and the main choice is the fitness of the players! I'm optimistic about Cesena!

Opening Pescara beat Bari 2-1 on their home turf. As analysed in the El Grit's preview, Pescara have struggled to win at home and their players are exhausted after the play-offs before the start of the new season. From this game, it can be seen that many Pescara players are clearly out of form.

In the ninth minute, Pescara took the lead thanks to Thomas Odd's goal.

However, a tenacious Barry equalised in the 55th minute.

The game then went into a stalemate, with Bari's players not hesitating to foul Pescara to stop them, resulting in as many as 15 fouls throughout the game. And Pescara only three.

Although there were too many fouls, the effect was good.

Pescara couldn't move an inch.

It wasn't until the 90th minute that he relied on Roman's goal to defeat the opponent.

Pescara's performance in this game seems to be a perfect confirmation of the season preview of the newspaper, which shows that the newspaper is not nonsense, and the analysis is reasonable......

A day later, Serie B was in full swing.

Several of Cesena's main competitors for this season's title have made a good start!

All that's left is Cesena at home against Lakina.

In the two home and away matchups between the two teams last season, Cesena won both games, but compared with last season, the overall strength of Lakina this season has improved to a certain extent, which means that this home game against Lakina does not necessarily result in Cesena winning!

The number one star of the Lakina team is Austrian striker Zack, who is also the player that Cesena focused on defending in the pre-match simulation training!

Pre-game. Zach, who arrived at Cesena with the team, spoke to reporters in front of the pitch.

As for Roma Sport's analysis of Cesena, Zach disagreed.

'Cesena has made a lot of signings this season, but it also shows that they have more depth in their squad...... I'm sure Chen Long will be more mature than last season, he's a genius. If we want to beat Cesena in the game, then Chen Long will have to pay attention......"

Unexpectedly, Zach mentioned Long Chen, and Zach seemed to attach great importance to Long Chen.

This is actually quite normal, and now Chen Long has become a key player for the research of various teams in Serie B.

In the dressing room before the game, Paul Jam announced the team's squad, and Zou Zhaolong was not selected.

But that's normal, because he had a calf strain in the pre-match training.

Obviously, Paul Zhan was not willing to take risks and did not intend to let Zou Zhaolong play.

At 8 p.m. Beijing time on August 12, 2020, Chen Tao and his wife Liu Xin, who were far away in City A, China, sat in front of the computer together, waiting for the game to start.

They know some information about their son Chen Long's Cesena this season, plus for so many years, under the influence of their son, the two have gradually become fans, of course, more often they only watch their son's games.

computer screen. The picture has cut to Cesena's home stadium of Manucci Stadium, it is raining, and it is raining so hard that you don't have to look too closely to see dense white lines appear in the dark grandstand background through the camera lens. Many fans in the stands wore ponchos and braved the rain to cheer for the team.

"It's raining, ......" Seeing the scene of the scene, Chen Tao frowned and said.

"What's wrong with the rain?" His wife, Liu Xin, asked curiously.

"There are too many accidents when it rains, and I don't like rain balls...... Chen Tao said. The turf is getting slippery, the game is not much to watch, and the football has to fly around in the air most of the time......"

He explained to his wife how different weather conditions can affect a football match. What is the difference between rain and snow. The difference between artificial turf and natural turf, by the way, also talks about some classic races in bad weather.

For example, in the classic game of the legendary Italian international Gianluigi Buffon's debut in the national team, in the heavy snow in Moscow, the young Buffon resisted the indiscriminate bombardment of Russian players. Strive to keep the gate open......

Chen Tao has obviously become a senior fan now, and he talks endlessly!

However, in the eyes of Liu Xin, a person who has no interest in football, she is not interested at all, she responds to her husband casually and is perfunctory to him.

And Chen Tao, who was in a state of self-satisfaction, obviously did not notice his wife's performance. Instead, he talked about himself like a river and talked endlessly. He looks like a guest commentator sitting next to the narrator on TV, with two big words "expert" on top of his head.

Fortunately, Long Chen appeared on the screen and rescued his mother.

"Look! Son! Liu Xin pointed to the TV screen and suddenly shouted.

Chen Tao's chatter was interrupted suddenly, he also stared at the TV screen, listened to the voice of the narrator on the TV, and couldn't care about popularizing science for his wife anymore.

Despite the rain, the atmosphere at the Manuci Stadium was still lively and unaffected by the bad weather.

In particular, the East Stand, as the first game of the season, was watched by a large number of fans.

When the players came out, the fans in the East Stand cheered enthusiastically.

The broadcast gave Chen Long a close-up.

He was looking around. It's like a SpongeBob SquarePants, looking at this wonderful world.

"Well, not nervous, not bad." Chen Tao was pleased with his son's performance. He nodded approvingly.

The close-up stayed on Chen's face longer than any other player, which may indicate that Chen Long will be the key to victory or defeat in this match. His individual performances had a direct impact on the final result of the Cesena team.

Such a big responsibility also means pressure, but judging from Chen Long's expression, he doesn't seem to feel that this is a burden......

When the referee blew the whistle for the match. The rain is still falling, and it doesn't mean to get any smaller.

Chen Long's hair was already wet and lying on his head, and he liked to keep shaking his head to observe the situation during the game, so his hair was constantly thrown up, throwing the rain out together, and then slapping it heavily on his forehead.

"This rain battle is a test for Chen Long...... commentator Mario said after the match began. I remember that Chen Long didn't play in such a heavy rain last season, right? At least in Serie B, when you look at the game and it's just getting started, it's already a bit waterlogged. ”

Guest Dempsey nodded: "There is water on the field, and it is difficult for technical players to play. However, we should also note that it is said that this offseason, Chen Long's long passing has improved to a certain extent, which is very scary, a center who can pass the ball, tsk? ”

"That's right. It seems that God also intends to investigate Chen Long's long passing ability in this game, however, I would prefer to see him receive the pass from his teammates, and then shoot the scene, after all, his first task is to score, he is a center forward, not a midfielder! ”

For this rain battle, in fact, Chen Long experienced the changes brought by the venue when he was warming up.

The turf becomes slippery, the layer of sediment under the turf becomes soft, the adhesion is reduced, the support is insufficient, and the soles of the feet can be felt slippery when the change of direction accelerates. Even if you wear spiked sneakers that are specifically designed for this type of field, the improvement effect is limited.

In such a situation, it becomes difficult to play a delicate and smooth offensive coordination that advances layer by layer.

So at the time of the warm-up. Chen Long was already trying to warm up with long passes to find a feeling, and at the same time, he also told his teammates to try long passes!

After a few kicks, he didn't try any more, and it felt like he had found it.

In fact, this rain battle was also quite unexpected for Chen Long. It was indeed the first rain fight of his career!

Ahead of race day, the local weather in Cesena was either sunny or cloudy. But it didn't rain. Especially in August, Cesena should have a Mediterranean climate!

The weather forecast says there could be thundershowers today, but that's just a matter of probability.

It was still cloudy from the morning to noon, and in the afternoon, the thunder rumbled for a while, and suddenly it began to rain heavily.

The rain continued to rain until the start of the game, causing some water to accumulate on the field.

This is also a very helpless thing.

However, football is not basketball, it is an outdoor game, and the weather must also be taken into account, which is indispensable.

It doesn't say that football can't be played in the pouring rain, as long as the referee thinks it's okay, then the game has to go on.

After trying a few long passes, Chen Long had a score in his heart.

At the same time, he was glad that he had been practicing long passes all the time - wasn't long balls used at this time?

At the beginning of the game, Chen Long stood in the midfield, if you didn't pay attention to Cesena last season, seeing this scene, you would think that Chen Long had started to play in the midfield. In fact, this is not the case, Chen Long's position in this game is still the position he is most familiar with, center, the reason why he appeared here is that, before the game, Zhan Paul gave him a special task.

Because Zou Zhaolong, the core of the midfield, did not play, the core of the midfield in this game was the team's new recruit Istan ~ Micic introduced in the offseason, and the special task given by Gianpaolo to Chen Long was to assist Micic in organizing the team's attack!

Cesena kicked off first and the football was quickly passed to Chen Long, and without too many pauses, Chen Long smashed the ball to Micic in the midfield position and asked him to distribute the football. But sometimes, Long Chen also handles it himself!

For Chen Long himself, he can adapt to this rhythm. It's not that he can make the most of his strengths, it's that he has a good midfield organization, and now it's easier to adapt.

On the contrary, he does not need to assist anyone, and he has the final say, so his ability to observe the nuances on the court and quickly read and analyze the game can be maximized.

It's like a Mercedes-Benz G-Class off-road vehicle, driving around the city like an SUV without any problems.

But that's far from its limits. On the road, over a speed bump or something is not off-road at all for such a hard-core off-road vehicle, only to go to the limit of the place, to go to the place where there is no road, in order to squeeze out all the potential of this car.

And that environment is where this car should be.

After adapting and training in this summer training camp, as well as training matches, Chen Long felt that even if Paul Zhan asked him to play in the midfield, he could be competent in charge of the overall situation!
