Chapter 224: Don't Dare to Shoot?
When Donnarumma went to warm up, the boos at Marassi Stadium suddenly increased a lot.
His pre-match war of words with Gao Zheng was a household name in Genoa, and Sampdoria fans naturally didn't have a good face for him.
Now that I see that he still dares to play, of course, I have to "welcome" him with boos.
In the midst of huge boos, Kosticic came up and reminded Gao Zheng: "Hey, Gao, that kid looks like he's going to play?" ”
Gao Zheng followed his gaze and also saw Donnarumma, who had warmed up early.
In the midst of the boos, the figure was very eye-catching.
Gao Zheng sighed: "Fate is really full of malice. ”
Frei's injury gave both of the substitute goalkeepers a chance to play, but in the end, Del Neri did choose Donnarumma to come up and face his attack.
This hand of fate is full of malice towards Donnarumma......
Gao Zheng meant this, but Kostisic next to him misunderstood, thinking that Gao Zheng was complaining about the narrow road.
So he kindly persuaded: "Don't pay attention to what he said before, don't be influenced by him." ”
Gao Zheng knew that Kostisic had good intentions, so he didn't explain, but nodded: "Don't worry." ”

In the end, after a four-minute examination and treatment by the Genoa team doctor, it was determined that Frei would not be able to continue the game and had to be replaced.
At this time, Donnarumma also returned to the dugout.
Delneri patted him on the shoulder and said, "I know you have a grudge against Gao, which is why I chose you to replace Frey." I know how unpleasant it is to be ridiculed, and now you have a chance to fight back against those cynics to his face and make him regret every word he said! ”
Donnarumma's heart was on fire when he said this, as if a fire was burning.
He couldn't say anything, just pursed his lips tightly and nodded vigorously.
In fact, there is no need to say anything, he will use his practical actions to repay the manager's trust and love for him!

"Sure enough, it was Donnarumma...... I always felt that Del Neri's substitution was a gamble. Of course, after the main goalkeeper is injured, it is normal for the substitute goalkeeper to play, and it does not mean that Zorvas must be chosen, and Zolvas's ability is not necessarily better than Donnarumma...... I'm just saying that after a series of pre-match verbal battles, Del Neri's choice was a bit too deliberate......"
Careza said as he saw Donnarumma running onto the court.
The talented goalkeeper who was once in the AC Milan youth team, but his development after entering the senior team has not been very smooth, and now he is facing Gao Zheng, who is in the limelight, can he really put on a "fight to fame" in such an important game as the "lighthouse derby"?
After Donnaruma came on the field, he found that Gao Zheng was looking at him, so he suddenly changed his mind, raised his hand and pointed at Gao Zheng, and then put his finger up and shook it - this is an obvious provocative action!
The Chinese students who saw the scene in front of the TV, along with the other Sampdoria fans in the bar, scolded Donnarumma.
Of course, the boos at the scene were naturally even louder.
However, Donnarumma, who was booing, still held his head high, and his face showed a very unruly expression. Looks like he doesn't care about the fans' boos at all.
"Donnarumma challenged Gao! Aha! That's the derby! Perhaps only in a derby can we see such drama! The grudge between the two is about to move from off the field to the field...... But for the spectators, this is good news, and the game is even more interesting! Caressa's tone was excited.
Gao Zheng didn't show an angry expression when he saw this action, but with a smile on his face, he just narrowed his eyes a little.

After Donnaruma came on the field, he thought about saving Gao Zheng's goal.
However, after this substitution, Icardi's performance was more active.
He had two chances in front of goal in a row, and both of those shots were saved by Donnarumma, who had just come on.
His two saves made Careza also say: "Donnarumma looks really good and he looks excited. The boos from the Sampdoria fans seem to have forced him into better form...... If he can maintain this form, maybe he can really complete the counterattack against Gao in this match. So in the face of Donnarumma, who is in such good form, what performance can Gao show? So far, Donnaruma has not had a shot on goal since Donnaruma played......"
Donnarumma saved Icardi's two shots, which made Icardi very unhappy, in fact, Donnarumma was also a little unhappy - my opponent is Gao Zheng, what are you kid, running to grab a chance to shoot? If it was Gao Zheng's shot with two feet, and I pounced, wouldn't there be two chances to shake my finger at him?
※※※
When Gao Zheng picked up the ball outside the Genoa penalty area again, all eyes were on him, wanting to see if he could shoot and Donnarumma could save.
Donnarumma lowered his center of gravity, his eyes fixed on the football, and waited for the battle.
Gao Zheng did make a shooting action, but it was only an action.
He shook his body and stabbed the ball on his toe to Obiang, who was plugged in the back.
Obiang rushes up and shoots hard!
After attracting Genoa defenders to create shooting opportunities for his teammates, Gao Zheng had no problem doing so, and Obiang's forward insertion was also sudden and timely, and he was very decisive and quick to shoot.
And in the face of this shot, although he was shaken by Gao Zheng before, Donnarumma still took off into the air and made a beautiful save - he didn't even hit the football out, but grabbed the football with both hands directly in the air!
There were no corners, no take-offs, and naturally there were no chances to make up for a second shot.
Until he landed, Donnarumma's hands seemed to have a whirlpool in them, holding the football firmly in the palm of his hand.
"Donnarumma, he made another great save! Obiang's powerful long-range shot, he didn't even cause any escape! Caresa began cheering for Donnarumma.
Judging from these three saves, perhaps the story of "fighting to fame" that Caresa mentioned before will really play out in the "Lighthouse Derby".
Donnarumma, who saved Obiang's shot, did not rush to throw the football to his teammates, but turned to Gao Zheng with the football in his arms, and threw his provocative eyes at Gao Zheng again.
He's saved Sampdoria three times in a row, but none of them have been high.
So what does Gao Zheng mean by this?
Do you look down on yourself or don't dare to fight?
Donnarumma believes it's the latter.
His outstanding performance and domineering made Gao Zheng also feel afraid, so he didn't dare to shoot with his feet.
If he doesn't shoot, he can still be invincible. Wouldn't it be too embarrassing to really shoot and be saved by yourself instead?
Yes, it must be like this!
Donnarumma raised his head and looked at Gao Zheng outside the penalty area.
After I got on the field, didn't I even dare to enter the penalty area?
Litter!
At that moment, he heard his teammate Kuczka shouting at him: "Hurry up and kick off, it's going to be six seconds!" ”
He quickly withdrew his gaze and kicked the football towards the front court with a big foot.
