Gao Zhen stood in the middle circle, stepping on the football and pulling it around. He and his strike partner Pelle are waiting for kick-off.

The first start in the professional league was such a crucial game.

It was a memorable moment.

There are some players who tend to be very good off the bench, but when the manager starts him because of his good performance off the bench, he can't play well when he comes off the bench.

There is still a big difference between starting and coming off the bench.

But Gao Zheng himself is not worried about this.

How you play when you come off the bench, how you play when you start.

But Pelle, who was standing next to him, looked a little nervous, after all, he would always help Gao Zheng consume the physical strength of the opponent's defender in the previous game, so that when Gao Zheng came out, the opponent's defender was already very tired.

And today, Gao Zheng has to face the defenders who are full of physical fitness.

"Don't worry, Graziano, you can play the way you usually play today." Gao Zheng felt what Pelle was worried about, and he said suddenly.

"But the opposing defenders are very fit......"

"Could it be that when I start again in the future, I will have the aura of losing 70% of the opponent's physical fitness?"

"Uh......" Pelle felt that what Gao Zheng said made sense. Indeed, Gao Zheng always has to face this scene, he can't play a super substitute for a lifetime, let alone whether Gao Zheng agrees or not, he Pele will be the first to disagree.

"Ready for the game."

Not long after Gao Zheng reminded Pelle, Angelo Martino Giancora, the referee on duty in this game, blew the whistle for the start of the game.

Gao Zheng gently kicked the football to Pelle, and then ran forward by himself.

The first game of his starting game began!

※※※

"The race is on! Sampdoria kicked off first, but they didn't rush to attack, the ball was passed back to the back, and they were pouring back and forth, as if trying to slow down the tempo and hold it down...... Ah! ”

Celio suddenly shouted.

Juvistabia's home stadium, Romeo Mendy, also erupted in loud cheers.

When Sampdoria fell at the back, Juvestabia pressed forward aggressively and wanted to steal in front. So Sampdoria's central defender Rossini was affected by the opposing player's forced ground when he passed the ball forward, and there was a passing error, and he passed the football directly to the feet of Antonio Zito, the forward player of Juvestbia!

That's where Cilio's shouts and the cheers of the home fans come from.

"Rossini misses the pass! Sampdoria is in danger! Zito dribbled into the box...... He shoots!! The ball is in! Oh my God, it's incredible! Juvistabia took the lead in the opening minute! ”

Sampdoria goalkeeper Sergio Romero tumbled out of the air, and the goal-scorer, Ivistabia Zito, ran to the bottom of the stands with open arms to celebrate the goal with his fans.

Rossini, who made a passing error, knelt on the ground, holding his head in his hands, looking very annoyed and painful.

The rest of the Sampdoria players haven't reacted yet – the game has just started, so why did they concede a goal?

Pelle rushed to the front, Gao Zheng a little behind him, closer to the midfield, ready to transition the team's attack.

Unexpectedly, they did not wait for the pass from their teammates, but in the huge cheers of the home fans, they turned around and saw the scene where Rossini's pass was wrong and the opponent's No. 7 player shot the goal.

"What the...... What are you doing? Pelle couldn't resist not directly scolding Rossini for his bad pass, but his dissatisfaction was still palpable.

Gao was finally able to start, but as soon as you started, you raised the difficulty for him by one notch, you are afraid that he is not tired enough, right?

Gao Zheng waved his hand at Pelle, signaling him to stop complaining about his teammates.

"Juvistabia took the lead in the first minute! What a dream start! But for Sampdoria it couldn't be worse! Commenting on the peculiarities of the game, Ivisttabia's head coach Piero Praglia said that although his team has run out of desire this season, he also knows that Sampdoria need a win to qualify for the promotion play-offs early. But that's not a reason for Juvistabia to let go of the water, his team will fight for the honor of the team and the support of the home fans, they will not surrender easily. If Sampdoria had come to the Romeo Mendy stadium with the mentality of pinching soft persimmons, they might have lost this game...... Now it seems that Praglia is not bluffing! ”

Cyglio said with some excitement.

He was excited not because he was happy to see Sampdoria unlucky, but because of another thought - under such circumstances, what kind of performance could Gao Zheng, a talented talent who has performed extremely well this season, perform?

'It's only been a minute and Sampdoria are one goal behind. And Gao, who started this game, is obviously expected by head coach Azchini, otherwise why would he start in this game instead of other games? It's just that the current situation will definitely affect the high performance......"

“…… In previous games, Gao was a substitute every time, and when he played, the opponent's backline had often played dozens of minutes of the game, and the physical fitness of the two sides was not at the same level at all. Therefore, some media analysts believe that Gao is always able to come off the bench to show a good performance, which is related to this. So the current situation of this game is definitely a test for Gao, but it may also be a great opportunity to fight back against doubts! ”

Sirio couldn't hide his expectant tone as he spoke.

He looked at the close-up of Gao Zheng coming out of the monitor, and thought to himself what are you going to do this time, Chinese genius?

※※※

"It's so depressing......" muttered Pelle, who was standing in the center circle, and he and Gao Zheng had only finished kicking off here two minutes earlier.

I didn't expect to open it again now.

"Look away, Graziano. It's better to concede a goal in the first minute than to concede a goal in the last minute, at least we have a full 89 minutes to follow. Gao Zheng smiled at Pelle.

Pelle shook his head: "There are times when I still can't understand you, Gao. Why are you so optimistic after all you've been through......

"That's why I'm optimistic." Gao Zheng shook his head and said. "You see, the Milan lab didn't even kill me, what's such a small setback in the game?"

Pelle thought that this was really the case, so he also grinned: "You're right, Gao. It's just a goal down, so what are we going to do next? ”

"Forget about the goal and play as you normally would. You're at the front, and I'll be there for you. ”

Pelle tapped his fist on his chest: "No problem, I'll open the way for you!" ”

"Gao and Pelle seem to be talking about something, but unfortunately I'm not an expert in lip language, so I can't tell the audience right away...... what they're talking about," Sirio said.

The players of Juvistabia finally ended their celebrations and returned to their own half.

Referee Giancola blew the kick-off whistle for the second time in a short period of time and the game resumed!

It's like a 100-meter sprint, where someone runs after the first starting gun is fired, and another shot comes in a short time.

It's a pity that if someone rushes in the 100-meter race, everyone has to go back to the starting line and start again, but the score of this game cannot be reduced to zero, and the two teams are no longer on the same running line just one minute after the start of the game.
