Chapter 125: The Angry Bull
Icardi spent the night wondering if it wasn't good that he had rejected Gao Zheng's car.
In fact, as long as you calm down and think about it, whether he goes to the first team or not has nothing to do with Gao Zheng, the decision is in the hands of the head coach, Gao Zheng doesn't even have the right to make a decision, I'm afraid he doesn't even have the right to suggest, so the head coach won't ask a young player what he thinks of the lineup.
Therefore, venting his resentment about not being selected for the first team on Gao Zheng's head is indeed an inexplicable behavior.
Gao Zheng must have felt very strange in his heart.
The thought of him standing alone in the parking lot made Icardi feel a little unbearable.
In any case, although they are competitors, Gao Zheng can be regarded as the person who cares about himself the most in this team.
He shouldn't have treated Gao Zheng like this.
Gao Zheng's performance in the first team is so good now, and he has earned it himself. His performance in the first team had nothing to do with his performance in the reserves.
I just didn't wait for my own opportunity.
Think about the fact that he still had the whole game to play in the reserve team, but what about Gao Zheng? At that time, the situation was countless times more difficult than he is now, he neither gave up on himself, nor vented his anger on himself, but still survived, survived until the head coach left the class, and then seized the opportunity.
On the other hand, I have a normal game to play, even if it is a reserve team game, but it is a real game, but I am still so impatient.
Why Gao Zheng was able to remain patient in situations that were more difficult than his own, and face the tribulation with a relaxed attitude.
And what about yourself?
Does this mean that he is inferior to Gao Zheng in this regard?
No, no, no! You must not lose to him in such a place!
Icardi took a deep breath and soothed his restlessness.
He decided to apologize to Gao Zheng tomorrow...... No, not to apologize directly, but to take the initiative to give him a ride to express his apology to Gao Zheng in this way.

Icardi had planned to wait for Gao Zheng outside the first-team dressing room after training.
But when he drove to the parking lot of the Mugnaini training base and was about to start a new day of training, he found Gao Zheng getting out of a car and thanking a man who got out of the driver's seat with a smile on his face: "Thank you so much, Graziano." ”
"You're welcome, high. We are teammates, and teammates should help each other! ”
Icardi's hand that was about to open the car door stopped, and he just hid in the car and watched Gao Zheng and the man walk side by side in the direction of the first team's dressing room.
He remembered that the man was the team's high school striker Pelle, who had been on loan from Parma during the winter break.
The club would rather take a striker on loan from outside than give a chance to a striker who has performed well in the development team......
So this guy is the real culprit who prevented him from moving up to the first team!
Unexpectedly, his relationship with Gao Zheng in the first team seems to be good?
Gao Zheng seems to be able to make friends quickly wherever he goes......
Well, at least now he won't be left without a car because I refused his request to sit in a car.
Icardi thought to himself a little sourly.

After a night, Sampietro still felt that he should care about Icardi, although Gao Zheng had never said anything like asking him to take care of Icardi, but he felt that since everyone had eaten together, they could barely be regarded as friends. At this time, you should still take the initiative.
Although he is not the kind of person who is good at enlightening others, he still has to give it a try.
Just as Sanpiero was secretly cheering himself up in his heart, the door to the reserve locker room was pushed open.
It was Icardi who came in.
"Hey, Mao ......" Sanpietro saw Icardi and quickly mustered up the courage to greet him, intending to start by greeting the other party.
But Icardi walked past him as if he didn't see him at all.
In a short period of time, Sampietro saw Icardi's expression, I don't know if it was an illusion, he actually felt that today's Icardi was more terrifying than yesterday's Icardi!
Icardi walked over to his place as if no one was around, put his backpack down, and unzipped it to retrieve his things.
Sanpietro was secretly watching from the side...... He felt as if Icardi hadn't unzipped it, but had torn the sports bag with his hands......
It's horrible!
What happened to Icardi?!
Although Sampietro's mind was now full of question marks, he didn't dare to ask anymore......
When training in the reserves, Icardi was also like an angry bull, in very good shape, very positive and desperate.
"Mauro is in such a good state!" The assistant coach of the reserve team on the sidelines sighed. "If this continues, maybe we can defend the reserve team title!"
The head coach standing next to him, Felice Tufano, listened with a smile and nodded slightly.

During the break in first-team training, head coach Yacini was concerned about Gao Zheng's question: "Have you found someone who is willing to give you a ride?" ”
"Found it." Gao Zheng replied.
"Oh, that's great, may I ask who it is?"
"Graziano."
"Pelle?" Achini was a little surprised.
Gao Zheng nodded: "Yes, it's him." ”
Yacini remembered the change in Pelle's attitude towards Gao Zheng during this time, although he didn't understand why there was such a change, but it was always a good thing.
He hopes that all the players under his rule can love each other like Pelle and Gao Zheng, like a family.
The team is united, there is no infighting, and there is fighting power, which can ensure a successful promotion.

On 28 January, Sampdoria Reserves and the first team played in the afternoon of the same day, with the reserve team playing an hour before the first team game.
Icardi was a thunderous mainstay in the reserves, and he was on fire from the first minute.
He scored two goals in the first half alone.
And when the first team game was about to start, he had already staged a senior four.
Helped Sampdoria reserves to a 4-0 lead over Empoli reserves.
The head coach of the reserve team, Tufano, was naturally very pleased with Icardi's performance, and replaced him before the game was over, so that he could rest well.
Icardi was unhappy that he didn't get a first-team call-up, but Tufano wished that the first team would not think of Icardi again this season, so he let Icardi play in the reserve team and help him win a national championship in the reserves.
He didn't catch up with the good times when Gao Zheng and Icardi were at the same time, but only one Icardi now seems to have hope.
So when I heard that the first team was coming to Pelle, Tufano was probably the happiest person.
When Icardi came off the pitch, he also gave the other party a hug.
Icardi didn't care about the manager's closeness and support, and he returned to the bench with a blank face and sat down to watch the game.
But his mind was not on the match in front of him, but flew to the Stadio Pietro Babetti, home of Sampdoria's first-team opponents, Gubbio.
I don't know what kind of performance Gao Zheng can show on the bench?
※※※
"High to shoot – no! It's a feint! He passed the football to Pozzi, who was in a better position!! Babysitter assists! Pozzi scores with a shot completely unguarded! Sampdoria equalised! It was the goal of the 88th minute! Sampdoria survived from the Piertro Bebati Stadium! ”
When Pozzi and Gao Zheng hugged each other, Yacini, who had been on the sidelines with a solemn expression, could finally breathe a sigh of relief, with a smile on his face and applause, while his assistant Carrillo was much more excited than him, jumping up and waving his fists vigorously.
Although it was a draw, judging by their celebration, it was as if Sampdoria had won the game......
"The draw in this game was really hard for Sampdoria as well...... As soon as Gao came off the bench, the team's right-back Rispoli was injured and could no longer continue the game. By this time, Sampdoria had used up all three substitutions and could not change players. So since then, Sampdoria has actually been fighting with ten men, and in the end not only withstood the opponent's ferocious attack, but also equalized, which is indeed worth celebrating! ”
"It's over! Sampdoria picked up a valuable point in a 1-1 draw away from Gubbio. Now after 24 rounds, Sampdoria has 39 points, is in sixth place, and has finally returned to the region that qualifies for the promotion play-offs! And you know, just ten rounds ago, Sampdoria had 18 points and was 12th in the rankings. It took Atezori's side 14 league games to pick up 18 points, while Accini took just 10 games to take 21 points and move up six places in the league table...... This is of course due to Yacini, the master of promotion, but I think every Sampdoria fan will not forget another key figure - Gao! It was his amazing performances that turned the team upside down, as he said after Atezori: 'It's dawn!' Yes, it was dawn, both for him and for Sampdoria! ”
The TV broadcast was broadcasting the goal that Gao Zheng assisted Pozzi in the last minute of the game.
Outside the penalty area, he first shook off a defender, and then picked up his foot to shoot, tricking Gubbio's defender into turning and blocking with his back, and in doing so, he also lost control of Gao Zheng's situation.
This is how Gao Zheng suddenly passed the football diagonally, the football penetrated Gubbio's defense, appeared in the space behind them, Pozzi plugged in and directly faced the goalkeeper, and then easily hit the football into the goal.
It can be said that 80% of the credit for this ball may be credited to Gao Zheng.
Pozzi was well aware of this, so after scoring the goal, he ran straight to Gao Zheng, hugged him, and thanked him for his assist.

PS, yesterday I suddenly received a message from a competitive author, saying that he is now ranked seventh on the classified monthly ticket list, and if I and another new competitive book on the shelves this month can both enter the top ten of the new book monthly ticket list, he can get this month's classified monthly ticket bonus of 1,500 yuan, which is a lot of money for him.
So he wanted me to fight for a monthly pass.
I think there's some truth to what he said.
I went to look at the monthly ticket list of new books, and it turned out that I was in the eleventh place, and the gap from the tenth place was not very big.
Then I'll give it a try, and ask everyone to raise their hands and vote for a few monthly tickets to help us get into the top 10 of the new book monthly ticket list......
