Chapter 145: This is the way you are good at
“…… Gao has just completed a contract extension with the club, and although the specific salary has not been disclosed, it will definitely be a big increase from his previous one. Sampdoria FC must be doing everything they can to keep the rising supernova...... In addition to the recent contract renewal, Gao Zheng is still the focus of attention off the court. Two of Europe's top agents, Raiola and Mendes, are vying for him, but surprisingly, he has neither Mendes nor Raiola...... His agent, Andrea Viviano, is a little-known agent...... Gao Zhen is a person who always makes a move that surprises us, whether on or off the field......"
The narrator Sirio is introducing what happened to Gao Zheng recently.
Gao Zheng received the ball outside the penalty area at this time.
Because of the fear of his foot skills, the opponent's Citadaella defender did not dare to steal easily, but blocked a distance of about a meter or two in front of him, lowered the center of gravity, and waited for the battle.
Gao Zheng stepped on the football at his feet, and did not make any feints to try to shake off the opponent, he was like a javelin stuck straight in place and did not move.
He held his head high and didn't look at the cautious defenders in front of him.
Then just when everyone didn't know what Gao Zheng was going to do, he suddenly picked up the football under his feet, and the football flew over the head of the opponent who lowered his center of gravity and flew into the penalty area.
At that moment, a tall figure burst out from the side of the Cittadella defenders, rushed into the penalty area, and then jumped high!
Shoot the soccer ball that is still in the air towards the goal!
"Pelle ——!!" Sirio abruptly interrupted his previous introduction and let out a loud roar.
Citadella goalkeeper Alex Kodas saw Pelle rushing up, but he misjudged Pelle's next move - he thought Pelle would stop the ball with his chest before shooting, so he rushed out to block Pelle's angle. Pelle didn't intend to do this at all, he jumped directly in the air and pushed the football into the goal behind him!
Then fall into the net.
"The ball is in! Sampdoria broke the deadlock and led Citardella 1-0 away! Pelle! Pelle! Graziano Pelle! He scored his first goal since joining Sampdoria! As a high-school striker, his efficiency is not high, but the main role of Yacini's loan is not to make him score...... Still, this goal is a good reward for Pelle, who has been working hard lately! ”
Pelle didn't seem to believe he had scored, and he stared at the ball in the goal for a second before remembering to celebrate.
He didn't run to the corner flag area, but turned around and pounced on Gao Zheng.
The two huddled.
'In this game, Yacini didn't replace Pelle when he brought on Gao as a substitute. Although he'd always done this before, this time he switched to a different pairing. Apparently hoping to use the friendship between the two people off the field to create a tacit understanding on the field and bring goals to the team...... And Pelle and Gao did not live up to the manager's expectations, and there was a spark between the two of them in this attack! Gao didn't make a move outside the penalty area just now, and it turned out that he had been waiting for Pelle to run to the position...... He drew all the defensive attention to himself and created great chances for Pelle's open runs! So everyone saw that Pelle scored with an easy header when there was no one to defend at all! ”

"Thank you, Gao!" Pelle said excitedly to Gao Zheng.
"Thanks for what?" Gao Zheng patted him lightly on the back, "This is your chance to run out by yourself." ”
"I don't care! I just want to thank you! Pelle hugged Gao Zheng tighter.
"Good, good, as you please...... But can you please stop pushing so hard, I'm running out of breath......"
Only then did Pelle let go of Gao Zheng and smiled happily, like a 1.94 meter child.
It was his first goal for Sampdoria. In fact, after understanding his positioning, he no longer wants any goals, as long as he keeps running and sprinting, tossing those defenders, and creating a better environment for Gao Zheng, who came off the bench, he can be regarded as a successful completion of his task.
The goal was scored by someone like Gao Zheng.
But who doesn't want to score a goal as a striker?
Even if you don't want to think about it anymore, deep down you still have some longing, right?

Although Pelle opened the scoring for Sampdoria, it was Cittagella's home stadium and the goal infuriated them, as they then launched a fierce attack and equalised in the fourth minute after Pelle's goal.
This time they capitalised on a mistake in Sampdoria's backline to force Sampdoria right-back Berardi to foul in the box and give Cittadella a penalty.
'Berardi made a mistake but it's not his responsibility alone, it's a problem with the whole Sampdoria backline...... Compared to their attacking line, Sampdoria's back line is much weaker......"
"Nuzio Di Roberto! He scored the penalty safely! It was his seventh goal of the season! Cittadella equalised, and the outcome of the match is still unknown! ”
As the Cittagella players celebrated the goal, Pelle, who was already in the centre circle ready to kick off, looked annoyed as he managed to score a goal to give his team the lead, only to be equalised after just four minutes. If he can't win this game, won't his goal be meaningless?
When Gao Zheng saw him like this, he comforted him: "It's okay, Graziano, we still have a chance." ”
"Yes!" Pellet's eyes lit up when he saw Gao Zheng, "You will help us take the lead again!" ”
But Gao Zheng shook his head and waved his hand: "No, it's not me." It's you. ”
"Me?" Pelle was a little surprised.
"Yes, it's you. Didn't you notice, their goalkeepers have average air defense, and what you're best at is heading, and I think that's a good thing to do. ”
"I ...... May I? Pelle hesitated.
"Why not? Didn't you just score a header? ”
"I thought...... That's luck. ”
"Then get another one in!" Gao Zheng patted Pelle on the back. "I'll try to pass you the ball high when the time comes, and you'll just keep rushing to the goal, ready to jump and fight for the top."
"Okay, no problem!" Pelle, who was praised by Gao Zheng, was full of confidence, and he patted his chest and said.

After Citadeira's equaliser, he was naturally full of morale and wanted to take advantage of the situation to take advantage of the situation to take another city, from the equalizer to the reversal of the lead.
But as a result, they have a lot of space in the backline.
Sampdoria played a targeted defensive counter-attack.
Six minutes into Cittagella's equaliser, 10 minutes before Pelle's first goal, Gao Zheng, who had been pulled to the wing, first pretended to cut inside, tricked the defender into leaning back, then dunked the ball back, and then switched to a left-footed cross.
While Gao Zheng was one-on-one with defenders on the wing, Pelle was hovering on the line of the penalty area. He saw Gao Zheng dunk past the defender, and before he could get up and cross, he had already rushed in and accelerated towards the goal.
He was at his highest point when the ball flew by, and none of the defenders around him could interfere with him anymore!
At that moment, Pelle was filled with a belief that it was the way I was good at it, and I would never waste a high cross!
He twisted his waist and abdomen, turning his body into a tightened towel, and then slammed it out, his waist and abdomen drove his neck, and his neck led his head, and he felt his forehead hit the football accurately and powerfully!
The ball flew towards the goal, and at such a close distance, goalkeeper Kodas soared into the air and waved his arm, but it was only useless......
"The lion shakes its head! Pelle ——! Oooo He's in hot form today!! Brace!! Sampdoria is leading again 2:1! ”
Pelle, who scored the goal, ran to Gao Zheng, who assisted him, again.
"I did it!" Pellet, who ran in front of Gao Zheng, bowed down and opened his arms and opened his mind to Gao Zheng. "I really did it!"
"You could have done it, huh!" Gao Zheng smiled and jumped into his arms, and Pelle straightened up and lifted Gao Zheng up.
"This is also Gao's second assist of the game, the connection between him and Pelle is like a hotline, there is really an extraordinary understanding between them!" Seeing this, Sirio laughed and made a witty remark.
