Domenique Berardi sat in the player's box, a little unhappy.

Since joining Sampdoria, he has only made one appearance in Champions League qualifying and not even once in the league.

As a result, in the process of the team's two consecutive defeats, he can only watch from the sidelines like today, and cannot contribute his own strength.

Now in this most important "lighthouse derby", he can only be a spectator.

How he wants to fight side by side with Gao Zheng and help the team win......

He frowned and sighed softly.

A voice sounded next to him: "What's the matter, are you worried that we won't win?" ”

Berardi turned his head and saw a middle-aged man, whom he recognized as Gao Zheng's agent.

"Mr. Viviano, I'm not...... I'm sorry I can't play. ”

André Viviano sat down next to Berardi: "Don't mind, right? ”

Berardi hurriedly shook his head: "No, I don't mind at all." ”

Viviano, who sat down, looked at Berardi carefully and said, "It seems that it is really difficult to connect you with Berardi, who often plays cards on the field......"

Berardi scratched his head a little embarrassed: "I don't know why, it's hard for me to control my emotions when I play." I always want to do my best......"

Viviano shrugged, "I'm not criticizing you, Domenic. Actually, I can't give any valuable advice about your kind of thing. ”

The two of them were chatting in the box, and the noise on the scene suddenly increased.

The live broadcast began to broadcast the names of the players from both sides.

Despite losing two games in a row, the Sampdoria fans still gave great enthusiasm and respect to every Sampdoria player who played.

"It's going to start, it's going to begin!" In the bar in Genoa, the Chinese students watching the ball group were excited and began to get into the groove.

In bars in China and in front of the TV at home, I don't know how many people were also excited by the cheers of the scene.

Feng Shiyu sat in the performance area of the bar, looking up at the TV hanging from the ceiling in front of her, slightly distracted.

It was in the opposite direction from their own stage, and most of the drinkers sitting below had their backs to them, looking up at the TV in engrossation.

The match between Sampdoria and Genoa was being broadcast live, and although the game had not yet begun, all eyes were already drawn to the TV screen.

Feng Shiyu remembered that when she came to the bar today, she saw a new advertising board at the entrance outside, which was written in an eye-catching way: "Tonight's 21:00 'Lighthouse Derby' focus battle, the excitement is not to be missed, the drinks in this bar are all 20% off, cheer for Gao Zheng!" ”

That's right, these people were originally here for Gao Zheng......

Thinking of this, Feng Shiyu walked off the stage and said to the manager of the bar: "Do you still need me to sing in this situation?" ”

The manager shook his head: "Forget it, let you run for nothing, today's drink consumption will be free, and you can go directly to the bar if you want to drink." ”

"Okay, thank you, manager."

Feng Shiyu went to ask for a beer, found a corner where no one was around, and sat down, while drinking slowly, while waiting for the game to start like everyone else.

Although she has no money to get if she doesn't perform, Feng Shiyu is happy and leisurely now, and now she can cheer for Gao Zheng.

Soon, when the players on both sides walked out of the passage, Liu Hong, the commentator on the TV, shouted excitedly: "Gao Zheng has appeared!" ”

The customers at the bar scene were also excited, they clapped their hands, cheered loudly, and cheered for Gao Zheng.

The bar manager looked at the almost full hall and couldn't close his mouth with a smile.

In fact, before the players of both teams played, the fans of the two teams had already started to fight - at first, of course, they used TIFO to demonstrate against each other.

Sampdoria, for their part, put out the same TIFO from their home game against Juventus last year, telling everyone that Gao Zheng is the mountain, and the mountain is here.

The Genoese fans showed the TIFO as a mountaineer who trampled the mountains under his feet in a red and dark blue mountaineering suit that symbolized the Genoese jersey.

The implication is self-explanatory.

Gao Zheng has become the object of both sides to show off or attack, and the two teams simply attributed their grievances to Gao Zheng, which is not wrong......

Gao Zheng is indeed the focus of this game.

During the pre-match ceremony when the players of the two teams shook hands with each other, Perrin, who started for Genoa in this game, stared deeply at Gao Zheng, and then said: "We meet again, Gao." ”

"Ah......h

Gao Zheng didn't know how to answer Perrin.

Perin didn't care about Gao Zheng's attitude, after he shook hands with Gao Zheng, he walked over and took a deep breath.

That's what the Lighthouse Derby tastes like.

Although he has been famous for a long time, this is still his first first-team "lighthouse derby", a real "lighthouse derby".

He spent last season on loan at Pescara, conceding more than 60 goals in a single season, but he also topped the league list for saves, making the most saves, fifteen against Fiorentina alone, setting a record for a single game in the top five leagues.

With so many saves, it shows that Perrin always has to face the shots of the opposing players directly, so conceding so many goals is not a problem for Perrin alone, I am afraid it is more of a defensive problem for Pescara.

After returning to Genoa at the end of his loan, because Frei had already moved away from Genoa, the No. 1 shirt he left behind is now worn by Perrin, and the talented goalkeeper who has been expected by Genoa fans since his youth days has naturally become Genoa's current main goalkeeper.

Despite conceding a lot of goals at Pescara last season, Genoa chose to believe him.

Judging from the first two rounds of the league, it is difficult to say that his performance is good - conceding seven goals in two league games......

But that doesn't stop him from having confidence in this game.

He was in Pesca last season and was unable to participate in the "lighthouse derby" in Genoa and could only watch the game live on TV, which was his biggest regret.

Facing Gao Zheng in the same way, facing Gao Zheng when he was in Pescara and saving his goal in the "Lighthouse Derby" is obviously completely different.

He tightened his gloves.

The game started soon after, with Sampdoria at home taking the lead in launching a fierce attack on the Genoa goal.

Both teams are on a two-game losing streak and let's be honest they both need a lighthouse derby win to boost their confidence and turn things around.

In the face of Sampdoria's fierce attack, Genoa naturally contracted its defense at first, hoping to survive Sampdoria's offensive during this period of time.

It is also a very normal tactical idea, after all, it is an away game, it is impossible to attack directly with the opponent, and at the beginning of the game, the home team must be at its peak.

Although Italians have not heard of the Chinese allusion of "one boom, then decline, and three exhaustions", they also understand the same truth.

As long as they can contain Sampdoria's offensive in the opening stage and let their offensive be frustrated, their momentum will naturally be put away, and then Genoa's defensive pressure will not be so great, and they can also wait for opportunities to counterattack.

This is the tactic that Genoa's new head coach Fabio Liverani has designed for his team this season, and although it is a "lighthouse derby", he does not want to fall into the rhythm of the derby and intends to play a war of attrition with Sampdoria.

In his understanding, this is Sampdoria's home stadium after all, and Sampdoria can't afford to lose more than Genoa.

In a sense, Coach Liverani's idea is fine, and Sampdoria really can't afford to lose, so they are also very aggressive.

But there is one thing that Liverani doesn't consider – whether his team's backline, which has conceded seven goals, will be able to hold in the face of such a ferocious attack......
