According to Del Neri's tactical style, he should have allowed Genoa to play defensive counter-attacks.

In fact, from the very beginning of his tenure in this team, he was letting the team play defensive counter-attacks.

But everyone has seen the result, four consecutive defeats.

This shows that defensive counterattacks simply don't work in Genoa.

This is normal, when he was in Chievo, he relied on defensive counterattacks to make the "flying donkey" a dark horse in Serie A.

But that was between 2001 and 2006, and now that the international football season is getting faster and faster, all kinds of tactical ideas are emerging, and his previous tactics are a little outdated.

And Chievo is different from Genoa, the staffing is different, and the players have different attitudes towards Del Neri.

In Chievo he was a godfather-like figure, and he was what he said. The players all listened to him, and he said that whatever tactics he played, the players practiced whatever tactics he had, and he didn't say a word.

But Genoa is different, he is a temporary firefighting coach, where he has no roots and the players may not follow him.

As soon as he came up, he suddenly announced that he was going to play a defensive counterattack, and he definitely couldn't get the full support of the players.

So we lost all four games in a row.

Before this match, the president of the club gave a death order. Delneri also knows in his heart that if he continues to play defensive counterattacks, he may be difficult to win.

Now that everyone knows that he is good at making the team play defensive counterattacks. So if you suddenly change your tactics and become more proactive, will you be caught off guard by Sampdoria?

And it can also be seen from Sampdoria's previous games that this team's offensive firepower is not weak, but the defense is very average and flawed.

If Genoa plays against them, in the special atmosphere of the same city derby, Sampdoria will be caught off guard, and maybe in the end it will be able to reap an ideal result.

When it comes to offensive firepower, Genoa is not inferior to Sampdoria.

Their main striker, Immobile, was the top scorer in Serie B last season, helping Pescara to promotion as league champions. And Immobile is also very young, only twenty-two years old.

It is said that Sampdoria's Gao Zheng is a young talent, but in Del Neri's opinion, Immobile in their team is no worse than Gao Zheng. Maybe it's because Mobile's name isn't fancy enough, so it's not so easy to be in the limelight. But in terms of goalscoring ability, it is not bad - Immobile has scored three goals in the first division this season.

If it is really a goal in this game, it is really difficult to say who will die in the end, and it does not mean that Sampdoria will definitely win at home.

After Genoa threatened Sampdoria's goal with a shot at the beginning, Gao Zheng found that Genoa did not retreat quickly, stabilized the defense, and waited for Sampdoria to attack - before the game, Di Francesco specially analyzed Genoa's head coach Del Neri, and studied all four games played by Del Neri after coaching Genoa.

Sampdoria's pre-match preparations are also arranged for Genoa's quick recovery defense, preparing to fight a positional battle with Genoa, and at the same time be careful of being attacked by Genoa.

Unexpectedly, in this game, what he saw with his own eyes was different from what his coach said before the game.

Genoa not only did not return to defense quickly, but also left a lot of people in the front court, marking the defense, and preparing to launch an attack directly in the midfield.

After all, when Sampdoria kicks the goal kick now, it is rare for a big foot to kick directly to the front, but through the short and medium distance passes in the midfield and backfield, the football is sent up.

If Genoa can press in midfield, there is a real chance that Sampdoria will be left in a mess......

Genoa's arrangement is very targeted, and Delneri has also put a lot of effort into studying his opponent.

However, Gao Zheng did not pay attention to the Genoese players who were always standing next to him, but focused on the huge space behind the Genoese backline.

Del Neri, who has been playing defensive counterattacks, actually let the team play against Sampdoria?

Is this because of the "Lighthouse Derby"? After all, it's completely different from other competitions.

The derby is prone to an adrenaline rush and doing things that are unlikely to be done in normal times, which certainly includes giving up on the counter-attack and playing against Sampdoria.

Sure enough, this is a derby, and it deserves to be a derby!

Gao Zheng grinned, the derby is so good!

The Genoese player next to Gao Zheng, central defender Caesar Beauvo pays great attention to Gao Zheng, and his eyes always glance at Gao Zheng, so he saw Gao Zheng suddenly smile.

It's obviously a tense "lighthouse derby", how can it suddenly show such a smirk?

Bowo frowned, he seemed to see the meaning of "contempt" in Gao Zheng's smile.

So he couldn't help but ask in an unkind tone: "What happened to make you so happy?" ”

"Ah, no, I'm sorry......" Gao Zheng realized that there was an opposing player standing next to him, and he quickly shook his head.

But Bovo didn't seem to intend to let him go like that, and besides, it was also a good opportunity to influence Gao Zheng with trash talk, and he asked: "I haven't blocked your shot yet, you don't have to be in a hurry to apologize." I'm asking you what are you laughing at? ”

Gao Zheng glanced at Bowo, and thought why was this person so strange, what did I laugh at you for? It's a game here, what do you care about me laughing at? Still broke the casserole and asked if it was the end?

Although he thought so in his heart, Gao Zheng didn't directly reply "It's about your", but smiled and said: "No, I just think the 'derby' of the original first team is such an interesting thing." ”

When he was in AC Milan Juniors, he also played in the "Milan Derby", but it was a contest between teenagers, and it was still very different from the senior team derby.

Gao Zheng told the truth, but Bowo was sure that Gao Zheng was ridiculing himself.

Is there a word for "interesting" to describe the "Lighthouse Derby"?

Everyone was very reluctant to knock out the opponent's brains, and the fans on both sides in the stands were constantly attacking each other, and as long as their Genoese players got the ball, the stadium would be booed by the Sampdoria fans......

It's like a scene of modern warfare, you tell me "interesting"?

Is there something wrong with your brain, or is there something wrong with my brain?

It is impossible for both sides to have a problem with their brains, so Gao Zheng must be ridiculing himself.

He originally planned to use trash talk to influence Gao Zheng, but he didn't expect Gao Zheng to rush into trash talk first, which surprised Bowo, but he was also more vigilant as if he was facing a big enemy.

"Don't think you can disturb me like this, you're underestimating me! Overestimating you too! I've seen a lot of young people like you, and I don't think I can do whatever I want on the pitch if I don't rely on my skills to be better. I'll tell you, football is a team sport, and the overall defense is not something you can break with a few small tricks alone! ”

Gao Zheng turned his head and looked at the Genoa No. 3 defender in front of him with an inexplicable expression, not understanding why this person said so much to himself.

I just laughed a little, why did I still talk about "do whatever I want". I know the Lighthouse Derby is a very intense and important game, but it's not so serious that even a laugh will make people hate, right?

Could it be that this is a sacred game for this player that cannot be defiled?

Well, that's how it should be. Isn't it normal for a player to have tears in his eyes when the national anthem is played in the World Cup, and to care so much about a city derby?

Thinking of this, Gao Zheng said solemnly to Bowo: "I didn't expect you to respect this game so much, rest assured that I will go all out to defeat you as a sign of respect." ”

After saying that, he ran to pick up his teammates.

Bowo was stunned for a moment, and suddenly he didn't expect to understand what Gao Zheng meant by what he said.

When Gao Zheng got the ball outside the Genoa penalty area, Bovo pressed it for the first time. Gao Zheng's calf swung quickly to make a shot, but he pulled the football to the side very quickly, just avoiding Bowo's foot that stretched out to break the ball.

Bowo also reacted quickly, immediately turned around and pounced on the other side, continuing to block in front of Gao Zheng.

But this time, Gao Zheng didn't even lift his legs, he just flicked the football with his ankle, and the ball rolled back between Bowo's legs.

Gao Zheng made a false shot and tried to break to the left, but Bovo lost all his center of gravity, and then he broke through from the right and gave the football to Icardi, who started in this game.

Maxi López's injury meant Icardi started the game, receiving a pass from Gao Zheng and finishing a high-quality shot that was saved by Frei.

"Nice offense! The high-continuous feints changed direction completely deceived Genoa's central defender Caesar Beauvo! The kick that was passed to Icardi at the end was also wonderful, and there was no greed......"

Bowo got up from the ground and saw Gao Zheng, the other party was looking at him, but unlike the previous smile, this time Gao Zheng's expression was very serious.

He was stunned - such a serious Gao Zheng actually looked at him a little hairy in his heart......
