The story of "I can actually save it" engraved on the tombstone really happened!

Remember what I wrote a year ago, "The Death of a Genius"?

At the end of the article, I was pessimistic that Gao Zheng, the talented player who once made me have high hopes, has died.

But what I never expected was that the genius I thought was cool would actually open the coffin!

Two months ago, a Chinese fan found an interview on Sampdoria's website...... The report introduced Sampdoria fans to two young players who excelled in the reserve squad last season, leading them to an unfavourable win in the reserve league last season.

These two talented young people, one is Argentine, and the other is a Chinese player!

On Sampdoria's official website, the Chinese player is known as "GAO".

Yes, seeing this, I believe everyone must have guessed that the person in that report is Gao Zheng!

That's incredible, isn't it?

When I heard the news, my first reaction was who is so boring on the Internet, P a fake picture to prank, Gao Zheng is dead in the hearts of many fans, so let him be buried in peace, don't take it out again and make jokes.

I even thought that some people were just attacking Chinese football in the name of Gao Zheng.

Although I have criticized Gao Zheng, I don't want him to be used for repeated consumption after leaving football.

It is better to let him return to the peaceful life of ordinary people.

With the purpose of refuting the rumors, I also went to Sampdoria's official website, and then I really saw the report, and the person in the photo was Gao Zheng!

I couldn't believe my eyes......

Gao Zheng not only won the reserve team championship in the Sampdoria reserve team, but he was also transferred to the first team in the new season!

Although Sampdoria are currently relegated to the second division, they are also considered professional.

A player who was terminated by AC Milan due to injury and was reduced to playing on the domestic field has not seen him for more than a year, and he has registered as a professional player in a professional team!

If I hadn't seen it myself, I would have thought it was a dream......

Then I sorted out my findings and posted them on Weibo.

This was originally the self-entertainment of me, a former Gao Zheng fan.

But unexpectedly, it attracted a lot of attention and retweets, and even attracted media reporters.

I think those journalists should have followed the same path as me – going to Sampdoria's official website to gather information and confidence, but this is just the beginning, they should have a wider network and channels than I am a regular fan.

So then, I saw more and more news reports about Gao Zheng in the media.

There are even reporters who went to Genoa, Italy for Gao Zheng.

As more and more reports come along, we understand more and more why Gao Zheng appeared in Sampdoria - after returning to China for a year of rest due to a foot injury, he went to Italy again to pursue his football dream.

I thought Gao Zheng on the football field was dead, but it turned out that I was wrong to blame him.

When almost everyone gave up on him, at least Gao Zheng didn't give up on himself.

I was happy and guilty of seeing the news.

I am happy that Gao Zheng can return to the court, but I also feel guilty for the hurt I once used to verbally hurt him.

When people on the Internet have made up and ridiculed him as a joke, Gao Zheng is working silently in places we can't see.

He ran hard, perhaps just to catch up with the self who had been expected to do so.

Come on Gao Zheng, I hope to see you in CCTV's Serie A broadcast next year!

——A netizen "He ran just to catch up with his former self"

Gao Zheng sat on the bench of the visiting team at the Riga Monti Stadium, wrapped in a thick sports puffer jacket. Brescia is located in the back of Italy, and the night at the beginning of November was already noticeably chilly, and as a substitute, it was important to keep warm to avoid muscle stiffness and strain.

He shrank himself in the shadow of the bench ceiling so that the lights on the canopy of the stands opposite the bench would not hit his eyes.

Then he slid his body down a little and leaned back on the back of the bench seat, although only half of his butt was on the seat, but this was more comfortable, relieving the discomfort of the numbness in his butt caused by sitting in one position for too long.

He had been on the bench for a long time and the game was played in the 75th minute, not counting injury time, with 15 minutes to go.

The score was 1:0, and Brescia, who was playing at home, was in the lead.

Gao Zheng, whose eyes were hidden in the shadows, set his eyes on the back of head coach Atezori standing in front of the bench.

Although I couldn't see his expression, I could tell from his body language that he was anxious.

Of course, anxiety is normal, after all, he is now like an ant on a hot pan.

Gao Zheng took his hand out of the warm pocket of the down jacket, then pulled the pull on the collar all the way to his head, and raised the collar of the down jacket high to cover his nose and mouth.

It seemed that he was a little afraid of the cold.

But in fact, Gao Zheng just didn't want his gloating expression to be captured by the media.

When Beckham moved to Real Madrid, his wife Victoria once told her husband: "Make sure you have a smile on your face and don't let anyone notice anything if the camera is on you." ”

Don't think you're sitting on the bench and no one is paying attention, modern football televising is so developed that even a small gesture from the bench can get the media interested after a game. Gao Zheng didn't want to be misunderstood by Sampdoria fans, and he had no sympathy for the team's situation.

"Time is running out for Atezori!" Valentino Silio, the TV announcer sitting in the commentary seat, teased. "Now it seems that the 2-0 home win over Crotone in the last game is more like a flashback, and if he loses this game, he may not be in charge. In the first thirteen rounds of the league, Atezori's team won only four games, six draws and three losses, accumulating 18 points and ranking ninth...... Speaking of which, Atezori's troubles during this period are not just the team's poor results. ”

There was no figure of Atezori on the monitor screen, so Sirio leaned down a little and saw Atezori standing in front of the Sampdoria bench, he turned to look at the bench, is this about to make a substitution?

'Atezori still has one last substitution in his hands, the team is down by one goal and needs to step up the attack. And on the bench there are two strikers: Christian Bertani, and the other is Gao. This is Gao's first time in the squad this season, and according to local media in Genoa, the Chinese talent, who rose from the reserve team, has a tense relationship with Atezori, and he was even excluded from joint training by Atezori at one point, allowing him to train alone......"

Gao Zheng noticed that Atezori had turned around, his gaze quickly swept over him, and then landed on Christian Bertany, another striker who was one person away from him.

"Beltani, what are you still in a daze!" He scolds his head and face.

Bertany looked confused, not understanding what was wrong with him.

"Didn't I let you warm up!" Atzori roared.

Bertany was very aggrieved: "Coach, when did you call me to warm up?" ”

"Less! Right now! Right away! ”

"Crazy...... Bertany muttered a few times, got up from the bench, took off his thick coat, and ran to the warm-up area.

Gao Zheng heard Bertani's complaint, and he couldn't help but laugh again, of course, the smile was perfectly blocked behind the collar.

Christian Bertani was bought by Atezori himself, and was once considered to be a direct player of Atezori.

But now the direct player's impression of the manager is not much better.

Gao Zheng thought of an idiom: everyone betrays their relatives and leaves.

In the past few months, he has really witnessed how Atezori died.

It's a wonder to rule the army with an iron fist, but to treat all the players as his enemies.

Sampdoria's poor results so far this season may also be factored into account the lack of quality of the manager, in addition to the low quality of the manager.

Atezori called out Bertani, and it looked like Gao was going to miss his first appearance of the season. When it comes to giving it a go, it's certainly not a problem to choose a striker with more experience who has proven his quality in the second division. But due to the recent revelation of Gao and his personal vendettas, if Bertany is not able to turn the tide after coming on the pitch, then the Genoa media seems to have something to say after the game. "The voice of the narrator Sirio came over the television." I don't know if Bertani will be able to save the manager who brought him to Sampdoria......"

Bolata, who was sitting on the couch, snorted: "God forbid, don't save this bastard!" I'd rather Sampdoria lose this game than let this idiot continue to coach! If we let him coach until the end of the season, we will have to play in the third division next season! Last season's Kavasin, this season's Atezori. Why do we always run into such idiots! ”

PS, the World Cup is over, very melancholy, after adapting to the life of staying up late to watch football for a month, I am still a little unaccustomed to suddenly returning to a normal routine.

We all know that the Champions League is the highest level and the highest technical and tactical football event in the world, but in terms of influence, it is still the first in the World Cup.

Why is this happening?

In addition to the fact that the World Cup is a confrontation between countries, I think that the fact that it is only once every four years is also an important reason.

After all, how many four years does each person have?

Sou first came into contact with the World Cup in 1994, and now it has been seven World Cups, and I have changed from a hazy primary school student to a father whose children are about to enter primary school.

The World Cup record is not only the glory and tears of those stars, but also my life.

Every fan has their own unique World Cup experience.

The same is true for those players, who have four years less for a professional player and may miss the World Cup when they are in their prime. That's why we care so much about Ronaldo and Messi's journey to this World Cup, because after four years, it may be difficult for them to participate in the World Cup at their age, and in the club, it should be no suspense for them to maintain a high level for two more seasons.

Scarcity is expensive, and the World Cup is only held once every four years, and its influence is naturally unprecedented.

Anyway, this World Cup is over, and I'm glad to be able to spend this unforgettable month with you through the X**C event and this chapter.

Four years later, let's see you at the World Cup in Qatar!

Thank you for your company!
