The news of Ou Chuliang's appearance in Wulihe spread, and before the fans could come to the stadium to see the honor, Ou Chuliang waved goodbye to everyone and boarded the flight to Italy.

Before leaving, Ou Chuliang gave a message to the young players in Liaoqing: "Dare to fight a tough battle, you can win the battle." Don't forget the original intention, you have to always. ”

The young players are like treasures, and one by one they keep in mind as a life dogma, throughout their careers.

As soon as the plane landed, a cold snap hit the face.

At the end of November, the weather in Naples can reach as low as 4 or 5 degrees. Although Ou Chuliang fought the frost fiercely, there was no way to make up for the inner emptiness brought by the unfamiliar city, especially when he saw so many fans who loved him before he got on the plane.

"Hopefully I'll have good luck this time!" Ou Chuliang lined up his cheeks and waved his hand to stop a taxi.

In Naples, Acchulian could have lived without a mask and sunglasses, because none of these Asian-blind Italians would recognize him.

“... Japan became the last country to qualify for the World Cup finals in France, and it was also their first time in the World Cup finals. Like them, Croatia, South Africa, Jamaica, China..."

"Hey, buddy, you just said you're from China?"

The taxi driver was enthusiastic, and as soon as the radio read out the word China, he glanced at Ou Chuliang in the rearview mirror, because he had found a new topic.

"That's right." Acchulian was already fluent in Italian.

"Haha, congratulations on that, the radio says you've been working hard for the World Cup for 40 years."

"That's true." Ou Chuliang nodded. Then lean your head back on the chair and tilt it to the side, closing your eyes and recuperating.

Ou Chuliang's coldness did not dampen the driver's enthusiasm, and he continued to ask, "Dude, what are you doing here?" Hahaha, don't tell me you're here to guard the net for Napoli. ”

Apparently the driver knew that Napoli had a Chinese goalkeeper.

"Why not?" Ou Chuliang opened his eyelids slightly, and then closed his eyes again.

"Hahahaha, then do you know kung fu? If you don't know how to do kung fu, you can't save Naples. When it comes to kung fu, the driver also deliberately learned Bruce Lee to make a POSE, and both hands are off the steering wheel. Everyone could see that he thought Ou Chuliang was joking.

"I'm sorry about that, I don't know how to do kung fu." Ou Chuliang can play military gymnastics, can do radio gymnastics, and can also do some boxing methods such as tai chi boxing that are popularized in various schools, and even harrier turning over, carp fighting or something can be done correctly, but he just can't do the "kung fu" in the driver's mouth.

Hearing Ou Chuliang's denial, the driver was a little disappointed, "Oh! That's a shame. If you don't know how to do kung fu, it's hard to defend against the onslaught of the purple lilies. ”

"Ferdinando is simply inferior! I've never seen a goalkeeper as bad as him in Serie A! ”

"I heard that your compatriot won the World Youth Championship and helped the Chinese team break into the World Cup, I really hope he can change the status quo of the club."

"Oh my God, look what I'm talking about! It's simply impossible, I've never seen him on the pitch and it looks like he doesn't have the trust of the club. ”

'If the club gives him a chance, will he take it?'

"It is said that he is more than two meters tall and is a powerful muscular man..."

The driver chattered, and finally put the brakes on and came to the dormitory building provided by Naples.

"No need to look for it." Ou Chuliang took out a lira with the largest denomination and handed it over.

"Thank you for the tip! Oh! You're the most darshy guest I've ever met! You walk slowly..."

Before he finished speaking, the sound of the door closing sounded.

"Be careful!"

"Whoosh!" A helmet-clad biker whistled by.

Ou Chuliang, who was crossing the street, couldn't dodge, and when he leaned back, he was about to fall to the ground.

At this moment, Ou Chuliang's right arm was straightened, and the fingers of his right hand were spread out to support the ground with one hand. The waist and abdomen hanging in the air slammed into a beautiful one-handed backflip on the street.

After his feet regained his footing, Ou Chuliang did not look at the back of the biker party in the distance. He simply patted the corner of his dirty clothes with his hand, and walked straight into the dormitory building despite everyone's attention.

"Oh my God! He lied to me! ”

"He said he wouldn't know kung fu!"

......

Life after returning to Naples was not any different than before, and no one even noticed his return.

"Oh, good morning, I haven't seen you in a long time." Some teammates who had an impression of Ou Chuliang recognized Ou Chuliang.

"Hello, long time no see." Ou Chuliang forgot who the other party's surname was.

Here, Ou Chuliang did not put on a score because he was the champion of the World Youth Championship and the hero of the national football team. This is Italy, and he's here to learn, not to do it.

After a day of observation, Acchulian finally understood how bad the current situation in Napoli really was.

When he came to the training ground, it was not the newly signed Bortoni who had just signed at the beginning of the season who led the team training, but another "old guy" he had never met.

New coach Carlo . Mazzone didn't react too much to Ouchuliang's return, and after knowing that he could speak Italian, he nodded and still arranged for Ouchulian to practice with the goalkeeper coach.

"Oh, don't mind, he'll be gone soon." Ferdinando patted Diochulian on the shoulder and encouraged, "The club is not very happy with his performance either. ”

The indifference of these foreign managers has long been ignored by Acchulian, but Ferdinando's enthusiasm has surprised Ochulian.

Although the two had a normal relationship for a while at the beginning of the season, they were of the same age and had a lot to talk about. But after hearing about Ferdinando's recent performances, Acchulian didn't believe that the sunny young man in front of him was the target of the crusade in the mouth of the fans.

He's sunlighted, it's definitely not normal!

Ou Chuliang quietly took Ferdinando's hand off his shoulder and tilted his head, "Where do we start today?" ”

"Warm up first, Ou." Ferdinando said enthusiastically, "It's been a long time since we've trained together. ”

"Gladly."

Ou Chuliang put on his equipment and came to the court to catch and train with Ferdinando.

"Ou, I heard that you helped the Chinese team break into the World Cup this time?"

"It's not my help, it's the credit of everyone on the team." Acchulian straightened up on the ground, caught the ball thrown by Ferdinando, and threw it back at him.

"To the credit of the whole team? Heh, you're such a united team. Ferdinando threw the ball back again, "Either way, you're definitely not going to play a small role!" Let me guess, you probably haven't conceded more than two goals in a single game! ”

"I conceded three goals in Tehran." Achurion shrugged, "It's hell there. ”

"Hell? Hehehe..."Ferdinando didn't know what he remembered after receiving the ball, and he was stunned for a moment, until he saw Ou Chuliang also straighten up and reach out for the ball, he threw the ball back again.

"Oh, you know what? I'm already famous in Italy, almost all of Italy knows me! Ferdinando hurriedly did another sit-up and picked up the football that Ochulian had thrown him.

"Oh? Is it so powerful? Although it is not a problem for Ouchulian to communicate in Italian, he does not have a good grasp of some metaphorical words in the text. And he listened to Ferdinando's tone, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with him saying this.

"Awesome? Oh? That's right, of course! Ferdinando's eyes suddenly lost focus, but the next second they recovered as before, "Haha, all Italian fans know that I am the goalkeeper who conceded 11 goals in a week!" ”

"Oh! Oh... I'm sorry, I, I don't know..."Even a fool could hear the sadness in Ferdinando's tone. And as the same goalkeeper, Ou Chuliang knows how uncomfortable he feels at the moment of losing the ball.

Sometimes, a conceded goal can even affect a goalkeeper's competitive form for a month.

Now, Ferdinando has conceded 11 goals in two games.

Or in Serie A, which is known for its defense!

Even Ou Chuliang had never experienced that deep helplessness.

Conceded 11 goals in two games, Ou Chuliang didn't dare to think about it.

He knew that such a situation could easily happen in Europe.

Ferdinando is a living example, he is sitting two meters below his feet, he is too close to himself!

"Oh, you know what?" Ferdinando continued, "I've actually thought about those 11 goals countless times, and I think only O'Neill's long-range shot should have been saved. That is, I should only concede 10 goals..."

At the end, Ferdinando's voice grew softer, like a dream.

Ou Chu's conscience was very sad, he could feel the torment of this young man.

If you are yourself, you may not be able to bear it.

At this moment, Ou Chulian was even a little afraid to play for Napoli.

"But so what?" As Acchulian fell into deep thought, Ferdinando threw the ball back and stood up and shrugged his shoulders, "Maybe it's an inevitable experience for every goalkeeper!" I'm lucky that it happened when I was younger, and I still have a lot of time to grow and use it as a source of motivation for me, don't I? ”

Ferdinando was indeed young, he was even a year younger than Acchulian.

"That's right, you're right, that's what you should do!" After receiving the ball, Ou Chuliang also stood up and patted Ferdinando on the shoulder and encouraged. In fact, apart from following his words, Ou Chuliang could no longer find any words to comfort the other party.

"Let's practice saves! I'm going to see if your reflexes have regressed in the meantime! ”

Ou Chuliang has been away for nearly two months, and if he goes to a "low-level event" to play in two months, it can easily become a "stinky chess basket".

"Good!" Ou Chuliang said as much as he could.

......

On the first day of December, a bus took the Napoli team to Florence.

There were a few young people in the car who had been selected from the youth team standing in the aisle because there were not enough seats. It's something that the old guys in the car are used to, and the young guys have to show a little bit of goodness!

Ou Chuliang and Ferdinando had also stood a few times before this, but now Ferdinando has become the main goalkeeper, and Rafael is hiding in his own house because of Ou Chuliang's arrival, so both of them have their own seats.

The car didn't drive very bumpy, but everyone leaned back in their chairs and closed their eyes, and no one liked to chat at this time.

Fiorentina are currently ninth, with Napoli at the bottom of the table, and look like a match between a 'mid-table' team against a 'lower-reaching' team. But everyone knows that it is only a matter of time before Napoli loses, and everyone is guessing how many Napoli will lose.

The Frankie Stadium was buzzing with people, and it was not difficult to see from the fanatical expressions of the fans that the home team was going to have a carnival like any other Serie A team today.

The object of the hunt is this southern "giant" that has been criticized by mainstream fans in Italy.

"Don't worry." Seeing the black and white gloves on his shoulders, Ferdinando knew that it was Ocullian who was patting him behind him.

When he turned around, he saw Ou Chuliang's concerned face.

"My heart is not so fragile! I'm not going to be afraid of the trauma that has already appeared! ”

Looking at Ferdinando's sunny smiling face, Occhulian blinked and said nothing. Got past the player who was younger than him, walked out of the tunnel and took a seat on the bench.

Behind him, Ferdinando slammed his fists, seemingly prepared for something.

At Fiorentina, Napoli were already 2-0 down half an hour into the game.

There is an Argentine named Batistuta who always has a good anticipation of his team-mate's passes, and he has amazing physical coordination and unstoppable explosiveness. Always a beat faster than Klaassen and Bardini, Ferdinando is like a pathetic piece of paper in front of Barty's aesthetic of violence.

In the 44th minute, Barty burst into the box again and fired violently, and the ball went through the goal between Ferdinando's legs to score.

With such precision and speed, it is impossible for any goalkeeper to save. Because it is impossible for the goalkeeper to put his legs together in such a short period of time, after all, he must be ready to jump up and save at any time.

But now, the score on the field has become 3-0.

The home fans all over the stadium were chanting "One more, one more!" ”

Almost all eyes were on the long-haired Argentine.

Ferdinando took advantage of this time to hide in the blind spot of the fans' vision.

It is always embarrassing for the goalkeeper to be shot through the crotch by the opposing striker.

They will try to lay awkwardly on their backs and close their eyes after failing to stop an opponent's shot.

But in the next second, they will be pulled up from the ground by their teammates and told to keep up the good work and keep trying.

When Ferdinando got back to his feet, Achuria saw no anger on his face, only a hint of insensitivity on his face.

This nineteen-year-old is used to facing an entire opponent alone!

It was clearly Bardini's fault just now, and if it weren't for his mistake, Barty wouldn't have gotten the pass from his teammates so easily!

But now, everyone is laughing at Ferdinando because he's the backdrop in that glossy scene.

All of them, including the 1,000 away fans, were booing.

The goalkeeper shouldn't lose the ball, it seems like a matter of course.

But let them guard the goal, it is estimated that the purple lily has already scored 10 goals, and even more.

Seeing this scene, Ou Chuliang suddenly felt full of anger in his heart, and he even wanted to stand up and roar at the away team fans who didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement: Didn't you see how hard that young man worked? Don't you see that he has already saved the opponent's 4 must-scores?

But at the same time, Ou Chuliang also knows that a goalkeeper who "easily" loses self-control is doomed to failure.

So Achungion suppressed his anger and watched Ferdinando save his opponent's shot again before the final whistle blew in the first half.

This time, Ferdinando's hands were very regular, and the distance he jumped was much higher than that of ordinary people.

It was just as good as his four first-half saves.

But alas, everyone will only remember the third ball he conceded, which was a crotch piercing.
