Chapter 198: So easy
When El Shaarawy fell to the ground, he complained to the referee about the foul, but the referee on duty, Luca Banty, said nothing that Gastadero was a crisp defence.
In the distance, Robinho spread his hand to him, signaling that he should not just run hard and pass the ball to him.
But Shaarawy ignored it.
He was upset when Boateng didn't pass the ball to him, but when he didn't pass it to his team-mates, he took it for granted.
All he has in his mind now is the idea of scoring goals in front of Gao Zheng and winning back a city in the competition.
It wasn't long before El Shaarawy got a chance on the edge of the box and he still opted to shoot straight at goal, but it was too hard and the ball flew straight over the crossbar and into the fan stands behind him.
"El Shaarawy was a bit of a rush this time, he could have given the ball to his team-mates and regrouped the attack - Sampdoria's defence is already standing and it is difficult to get a good result if you want to play from the middle at this time......" Bergomi frowned and criticized El Shaarawy's performance.
Caressa, the commentator next to him, smiled: "Maybe it's because Gao has already scored a goal." β
"What does this have to do with Gao?" Bergomi didn't understand.
Karessa explained the online debate about the superiority between Shaarawy and Gao Zheng: "...... Apparently Shaarawy was aware of the controversy on the Internet, and he was not convinced. β
"It's good to have fighting spirit, but you also need to stay calm......" Bergomi shook his head. The young man was easily carried away, and he felt that Shaarawy might not be able to achieve what he wanted.
He set his eyes on Gao Zheng again, and after scoring a goal, there was no obvious excited expression on Gao Zheng's face, and his performance looked no different from when he didn't score.
Although this comparison can't tell everything, it's just such a simple comparison, and Bergomi's evaluation of Gao Zheng in his heart is suddenly much higher than that of Shaarawy.
It's always easy for young people to get their blood boiling, but it's rare to be able to stay calm in a big game like this.

Because El Shaarawy worked too hard, AC Milan's attack did not improve.
Sampdoria, on the other hand, was in good shape after taking the lead, with a much higher attacking quality and a much greater threat than AC Milan.
Now the AC Milan fans in the stands have begun to pray for their team - no matter how much dissatisfaction they have with the Milan club hierarchy, they should also unite in the face of their opponents and hope that their team will win, not that they will win.
So this time, AC Milan fans left their displeasure behind and cheered for their team with shouts from the stands.
At the end of the first half, the score was still 0:1, and AC Milan, playing at home, temporarily trailed by one goal.
Estigarivia came to the right to receive the ball and Sampdoria had already hit the ball to the baseline.
Gao Zheng, as a center forward, did not run outside the penalty area at this time, but pressed into the penalty area, and with him was Eder, who also cut diagonally into the goal from the side.
Estigarivia faced Antonini's defense on the wing, and Antonini was somewhat affected by his failure to create an offside position just now, and he looked a little hesitant when facing Estigarivia.
The Paraguayans seized the opportunity of Antonini's hesitation, first a feint, as if to cut inside into the penalty area, after the deceived Antonini's center of gravity was unstable, he walked the football to the bottom line, very resolute, and fast, and when Antonini reacted to chase, he was already on the bottom line ready to cross!
Seeing Estigarivia break through, the Sampdoria players in the penalty area also moved, Gao Zheng ran straight forward, and Eder quickly inserted himself to occupy the middle, and at the same time Kostisic also inserted into the penalty area and ran to the back point, Sampdoria formed a three-point outflanking in an instant.
This also made the AC Milan defenders in the penalty area feel like a big enemy.
Yepes saw Gao Zheng rushing forward to the store, so he quickly chased after him, not intending to give Gao Zheng a chance to catch the ball easily, and Bonella in the middle also pasted Eder.
At this moment, Estigarivia passed the ball to the goal on the baseline, but it was not a high cross, but a boccia ball attached to the turf!
The ball rolled towards Gao Zheng, who was inserted into the forward point.
Yepes quickly stuck to Gao Zheng, and at the same time used his physical advantage to squeeze towards Gao Zheng, intending to squeeze him out of the danger area.
He could feel that Gao Zheng was squeezed away by himself, and he was overjoyed at the moment.
Seeing that Gao Zheng deviated from his original position, it was very likely that he would not be able to kick the ball if he wanted to shoot with his right foot in this position......
It was a successful defence and the next thing I had to do was kick the ball out and clear it, even if it was a corner, than if it was a corner kick that leaked behind me.
But just as he was about to do this, he found that Gao Zheng, who was next to him, suddenly stretched out his left foot and bounced the rolling football with the outside instep of his left foot!
How did Yepes know that it was not he who squeezed Gao Zheng away at all, but Gao Zheng took the initiative to give up the space. It may seem like he has a hard time shooting with his right foot, but in fact he didn't think about shooting with his right foot in the first place, just to make room for a shot with his left foot!
Yepes watched Gao Zheng bounce the rolling football with the outside of his left foot in front of him!
The ball flew into the net just before Abbiati at the near post!

"High !! Brace! It was a really unexpected shot, very sudden! At the end of the first half, Gao scored a brace! It's incredible! AC Milan's backline was like papier-mΓ’chΓ© in front of him, and it broke when he stabbed it! β
'There's a big gap between Yepez and Thiago Silva.' Bergomi said from the side. "He gave another high chance......"
Estigarivia crosses, Gao Zheng grabs the front...... Gao Zheng! Huh! Huh! What a ball! Strike!! Liu Hong shouted, "This ball Gao Zheng kicked too thief!" Neither Abbiati nor Yepes reacted! Instead of using the right foot, I used the outside of the left foot! It's beautiful! β
Lin Sisi pounded the pillow hard, making a dull thumping sound, she couldn't make a sound, so she could only do this.
The younger brother beside her clenched his fists and swung vigorously in the air.
The siblings could only use such a suppressed and restrained Fang Shi to express the intense emotions in their hearts.
The Sampdoria fans in the bar were cheering loudly: "Good! 2:0οΌ 2:0οΌ β
The Chinese students waved the Chinese flag: "Oh oh oh!! It's handsome!! β
β»β»β»
This time, Gao Zheng still didn't look back to confirm the goal, and after he bounced with the outside of his left foot, he turned around and ran to celebrate with his hands spread out and shrug his shoulders.
The celebration, paired with his light, discreet shot, seemed to tell everyone at the San Siro: Get your goal, so easy.
The Sampdoria players were more excited than him and rushed over to hug him again.
Shouting and jumping cheers.
When such a player is a core player, how can there be people in the team who are not convinced......
β»β»β»
Abbiati didn't know who to blame, Yepes followed the ball, but it was a little slower, if he stuck tighter, maybe Gao Zheng would not have been so easy to get a chance to shoot.
But it would be wrong to say that he, the goalkeeper, was completely irresponsible, he was patronizing the anti-cross at the time, and he was not prepared for Gao Zheng's sudden shot.
He could only stand in front of the door, with his hands on his hips, very helpless.
But if you want to talk about the most lost person, it must be Shalawi.
He hasn't scored any goals on his side, and Gao Zheng has already scored two ...... The gap is further widened!
How did it come to this?
He looked up at the sky, but God didn't give him an answer.

"Aha!" Ricardo Garrone, president of the Sampdoria club on the podium, jumped up, clapped his hands and laughed.
Originally, the doctor did not recommend him to come to the scene in this game, and he usually went to the home stadium to watch the game, but it was more risky to watch the game away......
But the old man did not follow the doctor's advice, but insisted on coming to the scene to watch the game.
He felt that he would have to come to this game even if he forgot about the other games.
In addition to Sassuolo, he also has AC Milan to thank......
Silvio Berlusconi sat next to him, the expression on his face was not very good - he never imagined that his team would be two goals behind in the first half, considering that they were against a promoted side from the second division......
AC Milan is not just two goals behind, judging from the first half of the game, it is an all-round backward, from the score to the statistics, the scene is not good, there is no decent attacking opportunity that can threaten the Sampdoria goal. On the other hand, Sampdoria feels like a threat to AC Milan's goal with any attack.
This really made Berlusconi, the man at the helm of AC Milan, look bold.
Thankfully, there were not minutes left until the end of the first half, and at half-time it was hoped that Allegri could make effective adjustments......
