Chapter 38: Playing Table Tennis Like a Chinese
When Jelenic was about to stop the ball, he completely ignored what was going on behind him.
But the crowd on the sidelines and the rest of the players watched it for real.
Gao Zheng was right behind him, stretching out his legs across him, and just like that, he hooked the ball that Jelenic was bound to get!
"Oh my God......" One of the Sampdoria fans in the stands let out a moan.
Clarian Moretti's eyes widened, staring at the tall figure, not daring to blink for fear that he would miss something wonderful if he blinked.
At this time, he can't care about picking up the thorns of Gao Zheng.
In his eyes, the football drew a beautiful arc in the air, and then fell into the void behind Gao Zheng.
At the same time, Gao Zheng retracted his foot and also turned to chase the football.
In the middle of the run, he lifted his leg again and unloaded the falling soccer ball to the ground.
Then he dribbled the ball into the Genoa reserve penalty area!
※※※
Gao Zheng snatched the football from Jelenic so easily, which greatly surprised the Genoa reserves.
There was a panic in their backline, with some trying to go up and pounce on them, while others were still behind trying to stay defensive......
And this lack of unity of thought gave Gao Zheng a chance.
He poked the ball out on his toes under a head-on interception by two Genoa reserve players.
The ball passed between the two Genoese defenders and rolled diagonally forward.
There, Icardi plugged in!
He's completely unmarked and unoffside!
I saw Icardi receive a pass from Gao Zheng, kicked the football into the penalty area, and then faced the attacking goalkeeper Perrin, and chose to shoot low into the far corner.
Perrin made a judgment at the same time as Icardi's shot, and although he fell into the near corner, a pair of feet dragged behind, and when the ball flew over, it was blocked by his feet!
The ball flew back in front of the penalty area.
There was a cheer from the bench and the coach's bench for the Genoa reserves.
The Sampdoria fans in the stands let out loud sighs, lamenting that Icardi had not been able to take advantage of the opportunity.
But they were only halfway through their sighs when they saw the tall man striding towards the landing point of the football, and then he raised his foot sideways to gently cushion the flying football!
The ball obediently flew towards the goal.
And at this time, the goal is staging an "empty city plan"!
Genoa's goalkeeper Perrin was still lying on the ground and hadn't gotten up......
Everyone watched as the soccer ball drew a parabola and crashed into the goal.
"This ......"
The sighs all turned into great cheers.
The ball is in!!
※※※
Gao Zheng didn't celebrate very excitedly after the goal, he just ran to Icardi, then put his arms around his neck and said: "Happy cooperation, happy cooperation." ”
Icardi was frustrated that he had missed the chance to score when he saw Gao Zheng shoot the ball into the back of the net, and he retorted: "I didn't ......"
Gao Zheng interrupted him with a smile: "I know, I know." But if you hadn't caught the ball and stepped into the box, how could that goalkeeper have dropped the ball? If he doesn't give up, how can I have a chance to shoot into the empty goal? You see, isn't the idea very clear? ”
Icardi was speechless, the ball should have been his...... If he hadn't scored. But why didn't he score......
The rest of their team-mates flocked to celebrate the goal.
Especially the Sampdoria reserve team players who clashed with Jelenic in the nightclub were even more excited.
"I knew you could!"
"Worthy of the Demon King! That kick hook is so beautiful! You didn't see Jelenich's idiot look at the time, it's funny! ”
"Hahaha, yes! That idiot is like seeing a ghost! ”
On the sidelines, assistant coach Casirio was extremely surprised: "This ball...... From the very beginning to the end, he did it single-handedly, right? If he hadn't reached out and hooked the ball back, it would have been Genoa's attacking opportunity......"
Bruni smiled and said, "Alfredo, do you know what I saw from Gao Zheng when he was shooting? ”
"Huh? What the? ”
"He raised his foot pad to shoot, I don't know why, it reminded me of those Chinese playing table tennis, all of them are innate abilities......"
Casirio looked at Bruni in some surprise, it was rare to hear such a high-level compliment from this guy!
※※※
The Sampdoria fans in the stands were also celebrating and expressing their shock.
"Who the hell is that tall man?!"
"This ball is so beautiful! How did he do it? I mean, hook ......."
"Clariant, this is the performance of the 'disposable chopsticks' you mentioned!"
Clarian Moretti glared at the other party: "Can you say something happy at this time!" ”
"Hahahaha! Speaking of this makes people even happier! ”
There was a burst of laughter in the stands.
The team pulled a goal back and everyone was in a much better mood.
"I didn't expect to be so tall and have such a flexible performance...... It's really impressive. The fans looked at Gao Zheng and sighed.
Although surrounded by his teammates, the 1.9-meter-tall Zheng is still the most prominent one in the crowd, and he can be seen casually.
"Did he see that action of stealing the football from the Genoa midfielder? It's just magical! I think he's taking advantage of his leg length to the fullest, and if he gets closer, the other party should be aware of it......"
※※※
Jelenic really didn't notice Gao Zheng appearing behind him, and when the football was suddenly snatched away, he didn't even think of Gao Zheng going up, he just thought he was dazzled......
Of course, he soon learned that it wasn't his own dazzle, it was what really happened.
He was so upset with this result that he almost blew his lungs out of anger - he was actually being teased by that stupid big guy in such a way! I can't bear it!
"!" Jelenic looked at Gao Zheng, who was celebrating with his teammates, and cursed.
On the other side, goalkeeper Perrin also set his eyes on Gao Zheng, and his brows tightened more and more.
Whether it was stealing the ball from Jelenic or shooting at the end, it made him smell a little different on this fresh face, strange and familiar, which made him feel strange and weird.
How could I possibly feel familiar?
When his teammates saw Perrin like this, they thought he was feeling guilty for conceding the ball just now, and someone came up and patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't take it personally, it's just a lost goal."
Perrin shook his head.
He's not worried about conceding the ball, he's thinking about other things, but he can't tell his teammates about it, because he is afraid that it will make his teammates confused and fall into chaos.
"I'm fine." Then he raised his arms and shouted to his teammates on the court, "Cheer up!" We're still ahead! ”

PS, when this chapter is scheduled to be updated, the match between Egypt and Uruguay has already been played.
Egypt played better than expected, Uruguay played worse than expected. So it's a shame to be killed by Uruguay in the end.
But there is no way, who will make Salah unable to play?
For some teams, football is really a sport where teams push the ball up the pitch and then score with a talented shot. The team in Egypt have done what they can, and the much-anticipated genius has not been able to make the scene.
It's a shame that's football.
In fact, this game reminds me of the last book, the last volume of "The Heart of a Champion", Zhou Yi was injured in the Champions League final and missed the first two games of the World Cup group stage, and the team without him spelled out two draws, which laid a good foundation for him to play to decide the winner.
Hopefully, the Egyptian team will be able to give Salah that opportunity.
In addition, Suarez really didn't forget to touch the porcelain when he fell, and when he fell to the ground, he could pull up the onions and stand up with his head to touch someone's legs, and then cover his face with his hands and roll painfully on the ground, which is really a performance gene integrated into the blood......
The match between Spain and Portugal has not yet been played, so we will have to wait for the six o'clock to talk about that game.
In addition, since there is a game that kicks off at 6 p.m. today, the morning update will predict the outcome of the game.
I think France will win Australia by three goals.
Argentina will beat Iceland by two goals.
I don't watch the match between Peru and Denmark, so I don't guess.
