Chapter 165: Two Goals

Although they conceded the goal early, considering that there is still a lot of time left and that they are playing at home, Sassuolo did not fall into the panic after conceding the goal, which made the manager Pia very satisfied.

He came out of Inter Milan's youth team to prove his coaching qualities in the first team.

Having led Sassuolo to the promotion play-off final this season has shown his managerial qualities, but it is not enough, and if he cannot lead the team to promotion, not many will remember him.

Pia stood on the sidelines, standing tall to convey to his players his determination as a manager - don't panic when you're a goal behind, stay calm and play how you play.

Yes, the most important thing is to stay calm and never panic.

There are many teams that lose in fact, they panic after conceding a goal, the players are confused, they don't know what to do, their minds are not on the game, and the result is that they make active mistakes one after another, giving the opponent scoring opportunities one after another, and conceding consecutive goals in a short period of time, which eventually leads to a collapse.

Even if he finally came back to his senses and regained his strength and wanted to get it back, because he was too far behind before, he lacked the skills to recover.

Before this game, Gao Zheng and Sassuolo had a very lively war of words, and the Sassuolo team really hated Gao Zheng and couldn't wait to eat his flesh raw.

But as the head coach of the team, Pia competently takes into account a variety of situations, one of which is what if we accidentally concede the first goal in the game.

Pia also highlighted this situation as a top priority for the team. Tell them that in such a situation, they must not lose their cool and not be carried away by anger. After conceding the ball, you must not press up desperately to attack, so that it is easy for the opponent to seize the opportunity to counterattack and then go to the next goal.

If you concede two goals in a row in a short period of time, then you will be in big trouble......

So when the game restarted, Cilio, as a commentator, keenly noticed that Sassuolo, who was behind, did not press hard and was eager to equalize, but still played steadily.

Sirio was also full of praise for Pia's arrangement: "Pia has not lost his cool or control of the team, although the team is behind, but now Sampdoria is in high spirits, and it is the right choice to go cold." ”

Sassuolo continued to play so steadily, ready to grind down the morale that Sampdoria had been boosted by scoring first.

Obiang picked up the ball in midfield, he looked up and saw that there didn't seem to be a good chance, so he took the ball forward.

Gao Zheng, who was originally in the penalty area, immediately ran back when he saw this, ran out of the penalty area, and met him.

Mazzolati also ran out with Gao Zheng and followed closely behind.

Obiang saw Gao Zheng running out to answer him, so he passed the football over.

When Gao Zheng received the ball, Mazzolati and midfield teammate Francisco Mananelli formed a sandwich situation behind him.

They are confident that they can prevent Gao Zheng from even turning around.

But at the moment when Gao Zheng just received the ball, he suddenly pulled the football behind him, and at the same time turned around!

It was wiped between the two of them who didn't have time to close!

"Pretty!!" The Chinese students in front of the TV cheered.

Mazzolati subconsciously reached out to pull as soon as he saw Gao Zheng turn around, his experience told him that he couldn't let Gao Zheng turn around no matter what, otherwise there would be a big space behind him!

He grabbed Gao Zheng's shoulders and dragged him back hard, but found that Gao Zheng, who turned around, was easily pulled down by him......

Gao Zheng, who fell, also raised his arms to remind the referee that his hands were not in contact with the opponent, and he was completely unilaterally pulled to the ground by Mazzolati.

When he fell to the ground, there were loud boos, but Gao Zheng, who was very close, still heard the referee's whistle.

"Mazzolatila foul! No doubt about the foul! This is the second time in a row that he has fouled Gao! "Silio reported the location of the foul from the goal as soon as he finished the foul, and as an experienced commentator, this distance can be predicted by visual inspection." At about twenty-seven meters from the goal, it was too close to the goal......"

Mazzolati was really angry, he insisted that Gao Zheng faked a fall, because he successfully pulled the other party down once when he pulled Gao Zheng, so Gao Zheng must have been determined to fall.

But the referee Dino Tomasi didn't think much of it, he didn't care what Gao Zheng's reaction was, as long as Mazzolati did pull Gao Zheng with his hands, and subjectively used extra body movements to prevent Gao Zheng's willingness to continue to break through with the ball, then he could be sentenced to a foul.

And since Mazzolati was fouling Gao Zheng in a row, Tomasi felt that it was necessary for him to use his power to remind Mazzorati to pay attention to controlling his emotions.

So he not only awarded Mazzolatila a foul, but also gave Mazzolati a yellow card.

Mazzolati was shocked when he saw the yellow card - such a foul needs to be given a yellow card?

He first protested to the referee Tomasi, and then turned to Gao Zheng, who had just turned over and sat up, and yelled at him: "Liar! You're clearly faking a fall! ”

Gao Zheng sat on the ground and responded to the angry Mazzolati with a calm face: "You did commit a foul, don't you believe you went to ask the referee?" ”

"You ......" Mazzolati was so choked by Gao Zheng that he couldn't speak, and could only try to widen his eyes as much as possible, and the hot breath coming out of his nose made him look like an angry bull.

Immediately afterwards, he was dragged away by his teammates - they were afraid that Mazzolati would go crazy and beat Gao Zheng up, so that he would have to go down......

Pelle, who ran over, also made up for Mazzolati: "Don't complain, if that foul just gave you a yellow card, you should go down now!" You should thank the referee for showing mercy to your men! ”

Mazzolati walked back into the box with a gloomy face.

※※※

"That number 24 still has the face to protest to the referee? He's clearly targeting handsome guys! Xiao Yingying pointed to the angry Mazzolati on the TV and shouted.

Her words were echoed by other international students, who were all denouncing Mazzolati.

Only Feng Shiyu looked at Gao Zheng, and he didn't seem to be angry at all.

Then she suddenly pointed to the TV screen and asked, "Is this free kick also going to be kicked by Gao Zheng?" ”

"Definitely!" Xiao Yingying clenched her fists.

"Isn't that another chance to score?" Feng Shiyu asked.

Ma Huanyang seized the opportunity to continue talking to the beauty, and he hurriedly said, "This is not necessarily." As for a free kick, it's not that the closer you get to the goal, the easier it is to score. Because of the human wall, if the football wants to go around the human wall, it is very likely to rise above the beam. If you want to press below the beam, there is a good chance that it will hit the human wall......" He put on a professional posture to talk eloquently, brushing his presence in front of Feng Shiyu.

"That's the case......" Feng Shiyu was a little disappointed when she heard Ma Huanyang say that this free kick was not a good chance to score.

Ma Huanyang smiled: "Of course." But it's nothing, Gao Zheng already has a goal, this free kick scoring opportunity is not very good and it's not a big deal, it doesn't affect his performance......"

As he was talking, he saw Gao Zheng on the TV screen leaning over to place the football, and Sassuolo put the human wall into the penalty area.

※※※

Mazzolati was in the human wall, and when he lost the ball just now, he was also in the human wall, and he jumped up very hard, but he was not able to prevent Gao Zheng's free kick from scoring directly.

This time, he kept reminding his teammates in the human wall: "When the time comes, try to jump!" Jump up and increase the defensive area, don't let him kick the ball over our heads! ”

Seeing that he looked like he was facing a great enemy, he had already set up the football, and Gao Zheng, who had just gotten up, grinned at him.

The smile gave Mazzolati a sudden and ominous feeling.

He had experienced that feeling the last time the two teams met, as if he had been targeted by a beast.

When he felt the pressure, the team conceded another goal......

Wrong!

He remembered that before this game, Gao Zheng also had a record of scoring directly from a free kick in the league...... It was a Sampdoria vs Padua match, and it was also a free kick very close to the goal, but Gao Zheng took advantage of the mistake of the human wall and kicked the football directly to the ground......

At such a close distance, it is very difficult to get a football around a human wall, and he should know that in his heart. So when we are bent on jumping up and intercepting the football, will he kick it under their feet instead?

The more Mazzolati thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, so he opened his arms and shouted, "No! Don't jump! Don't jump! ”

The startled Mazzolati made his teammates a little confused: "To jump on the ground or not to jump?" ”

"Don't jump!" This time Mazzolati gave a very positive answer.

"Really not jumping?"

"Don't jump!" Mazzolati became more and more determined. The average height of the human wall is sufficient, even if you don't jump, it stands to reason that it is very difficult to get a football to jump over such a high human wall, but it jumps collectively, which gives Gao Zheng a chance to exploit the loophole.

So it's safer not to jump than to jump.

Of course, Mazzolati knows that he is only 1.82 meters tall, which may be the lowest point in the human wall, and of course he can't jump, but he can try to stand on tiptoe to increase the height of the human wall.

Thinking of this, Mazzolati put his feet up.

※※※

Gao Zheng had already set up the football, took two steps back, and prepared to run.

Referee Tomasi reminded Gao Zheng to wait for him to blow the whistle before he could take a free throw - he pointed to the whistle in his hand, and Gao Zheng nodded to indicate that he knew.

Then he turned his head and noticed that Mazzolati seemed to be taller than usual, and he soon saw the latter's feet on tiptoe......

He laughed again.

Mazzolati had been staring at Gao Zheng, and when he found that Gao Zheng suddenly smiled, he began to mutter: Neurotic, it's okay to laugh at something!

At this moment, he heard the referee Tomasi blow the whistle in his mouth, a crisp whistle that made his muscles tense all over his body.

But the football didn't fly over - Gao Zheng was still standing in place and didn't move, and he didn't mean to come up and shoot at all.

This stunned everyone for a moment.

Mazzolati, in particular, shook his body a little, and his padded feet almost didn't stand firm...... Fortunately, he grabbed the two teammates around him, so he didn't let his altitude drop.

At this time, Gao Zheng finally moved, but instead of running, he ...... Towards football!

He didn't seem to be very happy with the placement of the football and wanted to go up and rearrange it, so he just walked up very casually.

He stopped when he walked behind the ball, and instead of kicking the ball out, it seemed that he was really trying to rearrange the ball...... But at this moment, his right foot suddenly swung towards the football!

Shoot on the spot!

The ball was kicked out by him!

It's not a slash on the ground, the football takes off into the air and flies to the human wall! Or to fly towards the location of Mazzolati in the human wall......

As if he had found the lowest pass in an undulating mountain, the soccer ball flew precisely above Mazzolati's head, and Mazzolati could even feel the wind blowing through his hair......

Before Mazzorati could react, he heard a crisp sound behind him!

Did the ball hit the crossbar?

He didn't care that he was still on tiptoe, it was not easy to maintain his balance, and he couldn't wait to turn around and look.

What he saw was not the ball that he wanted to hit the crossbar and bounce off, but the ball hit the bottom edge of the crossbar and bounced into the net......

※※※

"The ball is in again!! High! Scored twice from a free-kick!! It's amazing! Silio's exclamation echoed through the bar.

The Chinese students cheered, and Feng Shiyu and Xiao Yingying hugged each other.

Ma Huanyang couldn't care about jealousy of Xiao Yingying at this time, he looked up at the TV screen blankly.

I just swore to the beauty that I couldn't score this goal...... This slap in the face came too quickly!
