After the afternoon game began, sports manager Doriano Tosi quietly came to the sidelines of the training ground.

Bruni, the head coach of the reserve team, saw him: "I thought you weren't coming, Mr. Manager." ”

"How is that possible?" Tossi spread his hands. "I'm still going to see Icardi! You know, the club is very optimistic and concerned about his future. How did he perform in the game? ”

He looked out onto the court.

"Very positive and active." Bruni said. "Good level."

When Tossi heard this, he grinned: "Not bad, not bad! It's really from La Masia! If it weren't for the fact that his style was not compatible with Barcelona, how could we have grabbed it. What's the score now? ”

“1:0。”

'Was it Mauro Icardi's goal?'

"No, it's high."

Hearing this, Tossi was surprised.

※※※

On the pitch, Icardi looked furious, having just had a shot saved by goalkeeper Dejan Bregassi and still hadn't found the back of the net. And Gao Zheng has already led him 1:0 in the number of goals.

Marcy applauded goalkeeper Bregassie: "Well done, Dejan! ”

Then he looked at Gao Zheng, and the tall man stood in front.

He thought of Gao Zheng's promise to him at lunchtime.

You don't have to worry, Alberto, I'll give it my all in the afternoon.

Then he scored a goal in the opening game......

※※※

"Is it a high goal?" Tossi confirmed.

"Well, a beautiful shot." Bruni said. 'He got a far corner and Tozzo didn't even make a save.

"How long has it been since the game started?"

"It's only been five minutes." Bruni said, looking at the table below.

Tossi set his eyes on the tall, lanky figure on the field.

※※※

It was not only Marcy and Tosi who were watching Gao Zheng, but also Guo Wei was watching the game outside the court on the other side. This is the last day of Gao Zheng's trial in the Sampdoria reserve team, and no matter what, there will be a result in the end.

Gao Zheng got into the groove from the beginning of the game and scored that beautiful goal.

But Guo Wei didn't cheer for him.

Because he couldn't help but think of what they had been through in Sassuolo.

The louder the cheers now, the more painful it will be if I am slapped in the face at that time.

He was full of worries, and he had been worrying about one thing in the past few days - since they had been recommended by Sassuolo's coach, and the other party was friends with the head coach of Sampdoria's reserve team, they must have exchanged information about Gao Zheng in private. So Sampdoria also knows about the Milan laboratory, will they be the same as Sassuolo, no matter how outstanding Gao Zheng's ability is, they will reject him because of the authority?

He turned to look at the head coach across from him, Bruni, who never seemed to have an expression on his face, no joy or sorrow, and that was no different. I want to read his heart through the changes in his expression...... It's almost impossible.

It was the sports manager next to him, who seemed to be thinking about something, and his brows were furrowed.

This is not a good sign.

※※※

Icardi finally scored. After receiving a pass from a team-mate in front of goal, he slipped across Alberto Massi, dodged the angle and fired a low shot that rolled the ball against the turf and into the back of the net, but Bregassi made a save but couldn't keep Icardi's shot out.

Icardi looked excited after the goal, turning to Gao Zheng and then roaring and waving his fists. Perhaps because he knew that this was Gao Zheng's last day of tryout, Icardi no longer controlled his emotions.

And what he means by this action, everyone understands.

Seeing him like this, Gao Zheng smiled with his hands on his hips.

※※※

It stands to reason that after Icardi's goal, sporting manager Tosi should be happy because he came to see Icardi's performance.

But now Tosi's eyes are all on Gao Zheng.

Unconsciously, his target changed from Icardi to Gao Zheng on the trial.

At this time, he didn't think about the Milan laboratory, he just wanted to see what kind of performance this former genius could show in the face of the somewhat aggressive Icardi.

※※※

Icardi's roar made the match suddenly tense and intense.

The two sides fought fiercely, and the rhythm of attack and defense changed very quickly. Football is flying around, it looks lively, but there aren't many opportunities.

Icardi, who had scored, was in fine form and had another shot on target thanks to his excellent finishing skills, but this time his shot was saved by goalkeeper Bregassio.

Icardi was unhappy that he didn't score, and he held his head in his hands, frustrated.

Seeing that Icardi didn't score, Marcy shouted to Bregassi: "Pass the football to the Demon King!" ”

Braegassi looked up and saw that Gao Zheng had retreated to the center circle.

He kicked the soccer ball up with a big kick.

The football went straight to the high in the middle circle.

The red team midfielder in the red vest saw that the football was indeed flying towards Gao Zheng, so he ran up to interfere with his catch.

With his back to the direction of attack, Gao Zheng raised his right foot, faced the ball kicked vigorously by the goalkeeper, and calmly unloaded the ball.

The football did not bounce out, but obediently followed Gao Zheng's right foot, slowing down and falling.

Gao Zheng also completed the turning action while stopping the ball, and when he stopped the football with his right foot, the whole person also completed the turn and became facing the offensive direction.

And the defender who was originally going to come up to interfere with him was squeezed behind by Gao Zheng's turn.

"It's so stable to stop the ball!" Sports manager Tosi couldn't help but praise when he saw this scene on the sidelines, other people have to work hard to stop in the face of such a powerful high ball, and it is even more difficult to be good. But Gao Zheng stopped easily, and even stopped with the adjustment, directly combining the stop ball with the next move, simplifying the steps of receiving the ball, saving a lot of time, and creating an opportunity for him to get rid of the defense in the next step.

It reminded him of the first time he saw Gao Zheng stop Icardi's powerful volley from the sidelines.

It's a genius ball sense.

※※※

After Gao Zheng stopped the ball perfectly, he got rid of the first defender with the ball, and when the second defender rushed towards him, he quickly passed the football out and let the opponent save the air.

After passing the ball, Gao Zheng continued to run forward, but he did not run very fast and did not use a fast sprint to attract the attention of the defenders.

His opponents were all focused on the man with the ball, and he scurried towards the box.

It wasn't until the football was passed from the middle to the side, and then from the side back to the middle, that everyone found that Gao Zheng had quietly run to the front of the big penalty area.

In the face of the flying football, he lifted his right foot sideways.

"Stop him!" Goalkeeper Andre Tozzo shouted.

The two defenders of the red team immediately gathered around Gao Zheng, and through the past few days of training and futsal matches, they have fully realized how big the threat is from Gao Zheng, how dare they take it lightly?

The two of them intercepted head-on, as if they were closing the door, to block Gao Zheng's shot!

Everyone thought that Gao Zheng would shoot directly, and no one would doubt this.

But when the football flew over, Gao Zheng's right foot was not a strong volley, but a cushion with the outside instep to the outside of the ball!

The ball flew straight to the open space in the ribs of the penalty area, where there was not a single defender of the red team, but there was a player in a blue Sampdoria shirt!

Moreno Beretta!

He received a pass from Gao Zheng when he was completely unguarded!

This is a great opportunity!

He stopped the ball that Gao Zheng bounced over, and then shot with his feet!

The football was blocked by goalkeeper Tozzo, but it still flew into the goal!

BLU equalised!

※※※

"Huh?" Doliano Tosi was stunned, "He didn't shoot? ”

Bruni, who usually has no expression, laughed: "Ha! This kid! ”

"It's not...... Why didn't he shoot? Tossi asked Bruni as he turned his head.

"It's because everybody thinks like you that he didn't shoot. After Icardi challenged him, everyone thought he would hit back with a goal...... But when he drew all his defensive attention to himself, he took aim at the empty space and passed the ball...... This kid's ball quotient is also very high! Bruni explained to the sporting manager.

"But isn't he competing with Icardi?"

"Maybe Gao doesn't think so?"

Tossi was speechless.

Bruni sighs: "Icardi may be a pure shooting machine, he only has goal in his eyes, but Gao can see more ......"
