On August 26, it was time to go to bed, but Lin Yuan, who had taken a bath, said that he would not go to bed at all, making his mother very angry: "Scientists say that after ten o'clock in the evening is the critical period for growing the body, and at this time you must ensure adequate sleep and rest. ”

Lin Yuan shook his head and said, "I don't want to sleep!" ”

"What do you want to do without sleeping?" Mom shouted.

"I want to watch the ball!"

"What balls to watch?"

"Serie A!"

Mom was stunned for a moment: "When will it start?" ”

"Twelve o'clock ......" Lin Yuan's voice was much quieter, and he obviously knew that it was very late.

Sure enough, Mom's voice was an octave higher: "No! What ball to watch so late? Give me sleep! ”

"I don't!" Lin Yuan said stubbornly with a stiff neck.

"You kid...... "Mom wants to assert her authority.

At this time, Dad came out of the bedroom: "If he wants to see it, let him see it, anyway, school hasn't started yet, so it's a big deal to sleep lazy tomorrow." ”

Mom glanced at the two masters and sighed: "Okay, just this time, you are not allowed to go to bed so late after school starts!" ”

Lin Yuan asked, "Is it okay on the weekend?" There is a ball game on the weekend......"

Mom glared at him, and he didn't dare to speak.

Lin Sisi rushed out of his room: "I want to watch the ball too!" ”

"What are you making a fuss about? Aren't you going to work tomorrow? Mom glared at her.

"I can get up ......"

"Nope." The mother looked at the eldest daughter coldly. "Even if you can get up tomorrow, your spirit is not good, and your bad spirit affects your work status, what should you do if you are seen by the leader? Because you don't have the spirit to work and make a mistake, if your leader fires you, won't your job be gone? It's not easy to find a job now, and you're still so ......."

Lin Sisi hurriedly covered her ears and returned to her bedroom, what she couldn't stand the most was her mother's nagging, which was like Tang Seng's tight spell......

Seeing her daughter go back to her room, her mother also returned to the bedroom with her father: "Keep your voice quiet, don't shout, don't make noise with the neighbors." ”

"Don't worry, Mom, I'm honest when I watch the game!"

After telling them, the parents closed the bedroom door.

Lin Yuan, on the other hand, waited for the game to start in front of the turned on TV.

For this game, he took an unprecedented nap at noon, and although he tossed and turned in bed for more than an hour before falling asleep, he was now in good spirits and would never fall asleep before the game even started.

In a bar in downtown Genoa, Chinese students gathered again and waited for the competition to begin.

This is their first time watching the game in the new season. Compared to the previous event, there were a few fewer familiar faces in the team - they had graduated and returned to China - and there were many new people.

Compared to last season, the team has grown significantly.

These people are all here because of Gao Zheng's admiration.

Xiao Yingying was introducing the situation of their small group to the newcomers, showing off their experience of watching the game in the VIP box of the Marassi Stadium last season, and the newcomers who listened to it were infinitely fascinated.

“…… All in all, our organization is actually quite loose, there are not so many rules, and there is no so-called membership fee, everyone comes out to watch the game together, all the fees are AA system, you can come if you want to, it doesn't matter if you don't come, it's just about asking everyone to watch the game together. Occasionally, we would also organise a trip to Boriasco to cheer Gao Zheng on outside the Sampdoria training base. Gao Zheng is really an easy person to approach, and he doesn't have any idol baggage......"

Xiao Yingying gushed endlessly.

However, several of the boys among the newcomers didn't seem to pay much attention to her, and their eyes kept glancing at Feng Shiyu next to her.

Xiao Yingying naturally also watched the performance of these people.

She didn't show any dissatisfaction, but smiled in her heart.

However, Ma Huanyang looked at these boys with unkind eyes......

Gao Zheng and his teammates sat in the away team's dressing room at the San Siro stadium.

Their head coach, Di Francisco, is passionately mobilizing his players before the game, boosting their fighting spirit and daring them to challenge the seemingly formidable AC Milan.

“…… This is our first game back in the First Division, against a mighty AC Milan, and many people may think: 'Damn!' I don't want to face someone like this in the first game! But I'm the opposite, I like this arrangement, I like this opponent! Only if the opponent is strong enough, our victory will have enough gold content! Let those who are waiting to see our jokes dislocate their jaws! ”

I have to say that this young head coach is really good at agitating people, and many people were excited when he said this, and Alberto Massi, who was sitting next to Gao Zheng, clenched his fists and trembled slightly, although he was a substitute.

But Gao Zheng didn't listen to those passionate words much, and he was distracted.

Even though he came through the AC Milan academy, it was his first time here.

So Gao Zheng disagrees with some media saying that he is "revisiting his old place" - the San Siro Stadium is not his old place for him, but the D court of the reserve team is his old place......

When he was a youth player for AC Milan, like his teammates at the time, all his dreams were to be able to wear the red and black sword stripes on the turf of the San Siro Stadium, where he would write his own new glory for the century-old giants AC Milan and leave his name in the history of AC Milan.

At that time, AC Milan did have a very special place in his heart.

He knows that from the junior team to the youth team, to the reserve team and the senior team, the elimination rate is very high, and many people will fall behind halfway. But he is confident in his own strength, and he is confident that he will achieve his dreams.

He's the best in the junior team, he's in the youth team, and he'll be there when he's in the first team.

But Gao Zheng never expected that he did not lose to those strong competitors, but to injuries and misdiagnosis.

If he hadn't been spared that serious injury, would he have been a regular at AC Milan by now? Just like he did in Sampdoria.

Had it not been for that misdiagnosis, would he have been able to play at AC Milan?

It's a pity that there are no ifs in football, and there are no ifs in life.

When he shone in the AC Milan junior team, the media called him "a genius who can change Chinese football", and his future should have been extremely bright.

Now he's on the turf of the San Siro Stadium, but as an opponent.

Gao Zheng grinned.

After going around in a circle, he still came here, but things are not people, and he is no longer the boy who dreamed beautifully.

And AC Milan still has a very special place in his heart.
