Chapter 64: The Gutter Capsizes?
Chen Lin met the legendary president, Paolo Mantovani, at a private hospital in Genoa. Paolo Mantovani expressed his heartfelt gratitude to Chen Lin and his men for rescuing him from the scene www.biquge.info of the car accident and sending him to the hospital for treatment in the first place, because his attending doctor told him that if he arrived at the hospital a little later, he would stop breathing forever.
Chen Lin explained the reason why he appeared in Genoa, saying that he and the club staff were preparing to go to inspect two young players at that time, but they happened to be in a car accident, and saving people was just what should be done.
Paul Mantovani did not have any doubts about Chen Lin's words, and the police investigated the cause of the accident afterwards, and it was indeed a pure traffic accident, and the driver who caused the accident also died in that accident, no one could have predicted such a thing, so everything could only be a coincidence. Paolo Mantovani once again expressed his gratitude to Chen Lin for his righteous deed, and proposed to invite him to his home at the right time, which is already a very high standard of courtesy in Italy. Only truly close friends are invited to the home by Italians.
Chen Lin naturally expressed his honor, and then he offered his condolences and left the ward without talking about the two clubs. In his opinion, things have already started well, and the following is the process of building a relationship little by little, and it should not be rushed.
Walking out of the hospital, Chen Lin sat down in his own Maserati president. He suddenly said to the front row: "You go to the finance to spend 20 million lire, and distribute it to the brothers who did the work that day, it is better to let them forget about the events of that day." ”
The front row didn't speak, just nodded quietly. Chen Lin leaned on his back and stopped making a sound.
Chen Lin only knew that Paul Mantovani was in a car accident that day, but he didn't know the specific time and process. Obviously, he couldn't have done it alone to keep an eye on Paolo Mantovani's whereabouts and save people. So he asked his driver and bodyguard Lu Bing to find some people.
Lu Bing was a candidate recommended by the Chinese Chamber of Commerce when Chen Lin recruited drivers and bodyguards, and was originally a disciple of the overseas Hongmen, and he also mixed in the underworld in Italy, but then for some reason, he suddenly washed his hands and drove a truck in a small factory before becoming a driver for Chen Lin.
Chen Lin doesn't care about his gang-related background, there is white and black in this society, and the Chinese in Italy are often harmed by the aborigines and other immigrants, and in order to protect themselves, they will form gangs similar to the underworld. Compared to the Italian mafia, this is also a large force.
Lu Bing actually doesn't understand what Chen Lin was doing that day, but he admits that he is dead, eats the king's fortune, and is loyal to the king, take it when he should take it, do what he should do, and never talk nonsense.
After the off-season, Prato began the second half of the season. And the rest of the Prato players suddenly burst out with a ferocious momentum that was even more ferocious than in the first half of the season. On January 9, they defeated their opponents 6-0 in the home game against Modena, and then in the first round of the knockout round of the C-League Cup and the C-1 League on the 16th, they defeated their opponents with a score of 4-0 and 4-1 respectively, scoring 14 goals in three games, causing an uproar in the outside world.
And all this is thanks to the good atmosphere in the Prato team, this season after the introduction of several new signings, the competition for positions in the team began to become fierce, especially in the forward line, Vieri, Inzaghi, Yang Chen, Li Juyu, Ricano, five forwards compete for two positions. However, due to Spalletti's implementation of a good rotation plan, so that everyone gets the opportunity to play, and the final playing time is determined by the state, this competition mechanism coupled with Dunga, the god sits in the locker room, resulting in the team has been in a state of healthy competition, the players are training hard, the main players are afraid of being replaced in the selected position, and the substitutes are trying to fight for more playing time, which makes the strength of Prato's young players have improved like a rocket this season, Like Yang Chen's ca/pa at the beginning of the season was only 108/148, at this time it has risen to 116/150, and all the players are also playing hard after playing, and the words of the coach are even more uncompromising, which is no wonder Prato can play triumphant songs on multiple fronts at the same time.
On 20 January 1994, the quarterfinals of the Coppa Italia were held at the Stadio Bisenchio, home of Prato. This time the Prato team drew a good draw, from the Ancona team in the second division.
Just when the Prato team was jubilant, and even Chen Lin began to think about who he would meet in the next round of the Italian Cup, the process of the game gave the proud Prato young people a slap in the face.
After the opening, the Prato players, who did not look at the opponent at all, did not try too much, and directly launched a fierce attack on the Ancona team.
In the 6th minute, Doni broke through with the ball on the right side, shook the opponent's left midfielder, and crossed at 45 degrees, Vieri jumped up and down under the bag of two defenders of Ancona, but his header was slightly high;
In the 13th minute, Pesoto started with the ball at high speed on the left side, connected two players on the other side and crossed the bottom, but the ball was passed slightly inward and was confiscated by the Ancona goalkeeper who jumped up;
In the 21st minute, in a quick counterattack, Ma Minyu cut inside with the ball, and without waiting for the opposing player to react, he shot more than 40 meters away from the goal, and was punched out by the opponent's goalkeeper;
37th minute,......
43rd minute,......
Prato bombarded Ancona's goal, but although Ancona looked like a stormy boat and was in danger of capsizing at any moment, their defense remained standing, and it was helpless to let Prato do everything it could. Prato, who is more and more anxious, began to shoot frequently, and the players on the field such as Vieri, Veron, Ma Minyu, Fan Zhiyi, Zanetti and others all have a long shot, but long-range shots sometimes depend on luck, and luck is obviously not on Prato's side today. Countless shots missed Ancona's goal, and defenders such as Pesoto, Zanetti and even Fan Zhiyi later dominated the midfield.
And in the 87th minute of the game, the Ancona team, which had fought for a whole game, finally tried to see the dagger, they seized almost the best opportunity of the game, passed a 50-meter ultra-long pass, and found Ancona's leading striker Dimitrov, at this time Dimitrov on the right side was in the gap of Pesotho's forward assist, at this time he only had Ayala in front of a defender, and at this time Dimitrov had already started to speed, as we all know, With a hundred ways to get past the relatively slow defenders as the forwards dribble at high speed, Ayala was so focused that he lowered his center of gravity and moved sideways, trying to control Dimitrov's path and not let him have much angle to shoot.
However, Dimitrov had no intention of being greedy at all, and after attracting Ayala's attention, he sent a well-concealed boccia ball. On the other side, another Ancona striker also arrived.
Seeing this, Toldo rushed forward desperately. However, it was Ancona striker Curry who received the ball first, and Curry made a shot feint to deceive Toldo, and then calmly pushed the ball into the near corner. Toldo almost was deceived at the same time, and then pounced on the ball, but even though he was tall and long-armed, and his reflexes were amazing, he only rubbed a little bit, and the ball still rolled irreversibly towards the goal.
ps: I received a reward of 10,000 today, and I promised that the book friend would add a more chapter, not that Lao Ye didn't want to do more. To be honest, the first time I received so many rewards, I was quite grateful, this book is actually not very good, I wrote for more than a month to collect it and only broke a thousand today, but it was originally written because of hobbies, many book friends know that I used to only update one chapter a day, and now I have two more chapters a day, and there is really no manuscript saving, so everyone bears with me, I dare not say more, but I must work hard to write it. In addition, some book friends said that I wrote a lot of team information in the water, I want to say, there is no charge now, I think the water will let me water, everyone understands that those teams don't want to see just jump over.
