Chapter 319: Derby Strangler

The bar was thunderous again, and everyone toasted Gao Zheng again.

In Feng Shiyu's WeChat group, various expressions and cheers kept swiping the screen.

Everyone took photos of their respective locations and posted them to the group, as if everyone was together.

When Feng Shiyu saw this scene, she picked up her mobile phone, took pictures of the fans who were cheering in front of her, and then sent it to the group.

was immediately caught by Xiao Yingying: "Sister Feng, are you also watching the game!" ”

"yes, I was supposed to work, but today the bar was full of people watching football, and no one listened to the song at all."

"Hahaha! It seems that the charm of the handsome guy is even greater than the charm of your singing voice, Sister Feng! ”

After Gao Zheng scored twice, the singing and cheering over the entire Malassi Stadium never stopped.

Even though the game had only been fifteen minutes into the game, the Sampdoria fans were thrilled. They have never been so excited in the league this season.

In the previous two rounds of the league, the team was defeated, which really brought a big blow to the confidence of the fans.

Originally, the summer transfer club lacked two points, and sold powerful players like Poli and Icardi, if Gao Zheng hadn't stayed, Sampdoria fans might have rebelled.

No matter what the club says, selling players such as Poli and Icardi will not affect the team's results, but the fans are still unconvinced.

At the beginning of the new season, the Champions League qualifying round was successfully passed, and everyone was quite happy. As a result, after the league started, the team suffered two consecutive defeats, and everyone's resentment against the club in recruiting began to be uncontrollable.

The club's general manager, Sagramola, is said to be under a lot of pressure right now.

The first game of the league was played at Sampdoria's home stadium, where fans witnessed a 1-0 defeat to Juventus, a double defeat last season, and a successful start to the season.

When the game was over, the Marassi Stadium, which had been noisy for the whole game, suddenly fell silent, as if the world had been pressed the "mute" button.

It was a really scary scene.

So when a jubilant scene like today's reappeared over the Marassi Stadium, every Sampdoria fan was particularly emotional – last season's Sampdoria team seemed to have returned.

Coming from two goals down in the opening fifteen minutes, that's not a bad thing for Genoa, who have plenty of time to come back.

Liverani was a little frustrated when he conceded but recovered quickly and realised that the team needed him to step up at this time, and as a manager, he has a responsibility to boost the morale of the team and he has to bring confidence to those players with his actions.

So he rushed to the sidelines, yelling, signaling his team not to back down, but to attack.

Anyway, now that we have conceded two goals, there is no such basis as holding the result of falling behind by one goal and adjusting it at halftime.

At this time, you should take the initiative and let go, maybe you can get a goal back before the end of the first half and boost morale.

It must be said that Liverani's idea is fine, and in this case, the attack is really the only way to go.

But the situation was not what Liverani had imagined, and no matter how much he roared and waved his arms off the pitch, the Genoa players on the pitch were not very active.

"What the! Just two goals behind! And we have a full seventy-five minutes left! Why is this happening?! Seeing this scene on the sidelines, Liverani couldn't help but curse.

His assistant coach was with him and didn't know much about the team last season.

So no one reminded him why Genoa reacted in this way.

It's very simple, because there is Gao Zheng in the opponent's formation.

Genoa was already scared by Gao Zheng.

Originally, before this game, Gao Zheng only scored one goal in two league games, and everyone felt that his form had declined, and this game could successfully take revenge.

Unexpectedly, after the game started, he scored two goals in fifteen minutes......

How can there be a slight decline in form?

Some Genoese players even wonder if Gao Zheng deliberately showed weakness to them, just to catch them off guard?

So even though the manager is constantly asking them on the sidelines to be aggressive and try to pull a goal back, they don't dare to do it.

They are afraid of being scored by Gao Zheng again......

So when the game continued, Genoa, which was already two goals behind, did not show the posture to fight Sampdoria.

Instead, he kept shrinking his defense, as he did at the beginning, and seemed to want to hold on until halftime.

Seeing this, some of the reporters in the media table sighed: "The 'Lighthouse Derby' is really getting more and more boring." As the lagging side, Genoa can't see any blood, which really makes people suspect that they are not two goals behind, but two goals ahead......"

The reporter's point of view was immediately echoed and agreed by Tairen: "It's just that it's about to become a high one-man show." The derby should be very intense and suspenseful, but when it comes to the same city derby in Genoa, it is simply an inferior suspense drama that can guess the end from the beginning......"

"There is no way, who makes Genoa itself too weak, this is the problem, when the two teams are out of balance, this situation will naturally happen......"

"I don't think so. There is also a big difference in the strength of Juventus and Torino in the Turin derby, but Torino has been able to spark every time. In the Barcelona derby, the Spaniards also had the absolute upper hand, but I still remember the Barcelona derby in 2007, how the Espanyol drew with Barcelona at the last minute, which ultimately led to Barcelona losing the league title...... The big difference in quality is not the reason why the derby is one-sided, because the derby itself is a very special game. ”

A group of journalists fell silent because of the journalist's words, and it really shouldn't be a reason for the derby to be one-sided because there is too much difference in strength.

At this moment, Lu Bing chuckled and said, "What's so incredible about this? Isn't the only reason because Sampdoria has Gao Zheng and Genoa does not have Gao Zheng? ”

Everyone turned their heads to look at the triumphant Chinese reporter.

He said to everyone seriously: "If you want to restore the suspense and intensity of the derby, I suggest that Sampdoria let Gao Zheng substitute Gao Zheng in every 'lighthouse derby', and wait until the last half hour to replace him, I believe that the game will be full of suspense and excitement, and it will definitely become very good-looking!" ”

Wang Yixing nodded beside him and said, "Well, I think you can call Gao Zheng a 'derby strangler'!" What do you guys think of this title? ”

A group of Italian journalists grinned and speechless.
