"Alright, that's all for today. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Merriccini said to Uncle Zhang while removing the barbell piece from the barbell crossbar and putting it back on the shelf. "Take a break, Zhang, you've made a lot of progress."

Zhang Shu opened his mouth, but he couldn't speak, he panted with his waist thrust, and walked slowly back and forth in the room to recover his strength.

At this time, Igor pushed open the door of the physical training room and walked in. "Zhang, is the training over?" Seeing that Mericini had already begun to pack his equipment, Igor asked.

"Coach Igor is good. The training has just ended. ”

"Well, let's go back to the training ground, Mr. Mazzoni is going to speak to the whole team."

After saying hello to Mericini, Igor walked towards the training ground with Zhang Shu.

"Coach Igor, is there anything important for Mr. Mazzoni to announce?" On the way, Zhang Shu asked puzzled.

In the previous training days, Zhang Shu could go back to the dormitory to take a shower and rest after completing his strength training, and did not need to go back to the locker room of the training ground, unless the team had something important that required the participation of the whole team before Igor would call him.

"Yes, you'll know when you get there." Igor didn't talk about it. Just smiled mysteriously at him.

--------------------------------

By the time Zhang Shu and Igor returned to the locker room, the rest of the players had finished showering and changed their clothes, waiting for Mazzoni to announce the squad for the next game.

The players stared at the piece of paper in Mazzoni's hand, which recorded the eighteen-man squad for the next game, but they didn't know who would be in the starting line-up, and the starting list would not be announced until before the game.

Mazzoni glanced at the players, who were hovering on the fringes of the squad with nervous eyes, Brescia are not a big club, but they also have 24 men in the first team squad. No one wants to be one of the six who sit in the stands and watch the game.

In contrast, Zhang Shu's mentality is much more relaxed. Anyway, he got all the tickets, and he already knew his results in advance, so he didn't have to be nervous now. So he leisurely watched the expressions of the other players when they heard the roster, just like when the host announced the final results during a reality show.

Compared to the reality TV host, who has to say a bunch of nonsense before announcing the results and then go into the commercial, and then sensationalize it for a while after the commercial, Mazzoni is much more simple and direct, he looks at the A4 paper in his hand and reads the name directly on the paper. "Goalkeepers: Srnisek, Michilo Sereni, defenders: Martinez, Petrozzi, Dainelli, Pisano Daramano, Stankvicus, Mareco, midfielders: Antonio Filippini, Appia, Matuzaren, Bacini, Schop, Guana, Irana, forwards: Baggio, Tare。。。。。"

As Mazzoni called out his name, Zhang Shu's eyes shifted to the faces of these lucky ones one by one, most of the perennial main players had unwavering expressions, while those substitutes and people on the fringes had different expressions, some directly showed happy smiles, and some tried to keep their faces from changing, and their hands were already clenched with fists.

"Zhang Shu."

"Huh?!" Zhang Shu didn't react for a while, his eyes still wanted to find the player named Zhang Shu and see what his reaction was. Wait for a second before I suddenly remember, Zhang Shu? Isn't Zhang Shu me!

"In! What's the matter with coaching? ”

Seeing that Zhang Shu was still at a loss, the players all laughed. Tony pulled him over and put his arm around his neck, "You're on the squad!" This is my chance! Tell me how you repay me! Del Nero, who was injured in the afternoon, had gone home early to rest, and Toni was not in the squad for this game due to injury, so he rubbed Zhang Shu's head while taking the credit on his head without pressure.

Am I on the list? I'm ready to play! The opportunity came so suddenly, Zhang Shu's head still felt dizzy.

The other players came up to congratulate Zhang Shu, they really liked this teenager with Brescia youth blood.

"Congratulations, Zhang." As the captain of the team, Baggio also stepped forward to give Zhang Shu a hug. "If you have the chance, I'll help you find a way to get you on the field early." He whispered in Zhang Shu's ear.

-------------------------------

After announcing the squad for the game, the players who made the 18-man squad went to the restaurant for dinner, and then took the team's bus to the hotel in the city.

In fact, it is only an hour's drive from the club to the team's home stadium, the Riga Monti Stadium. Let the players stay together in the hotel in advance, just to make it easier to manage. After all, most of the players are still bloody lads, and they are left out for fear that they will play too crazy on the eve of the game.

This was the first time Zhang Shu had stayed in a hotel in Brescia, and he was very excited about it.

The hotel where the Brescia team stays at home games is called the Park Hotel Ca'Noa, which is a four-star hotel. Located in the north of the city of Brescia, at the foot of the Trumbia valley, surrounded by the Canoa Park. It is only a 20-minute drive from the team's home stadium, the Riga Monti Stadium. Next to the hospital and university area, the environment is clean, which is conducive to better rest for the team. There is also a meeting room for the team.

The team's bus stopped directly at the entrance of the hotel, and the players rushed in through the hotel gate with their luggage. The team's staff was already waiting in the lobby of the hotel to distribute the room cards to the players who entered the hall.

"Zhang, this is your room card."

Zhang Shu took the room card handed to him by the staff, he looked up and looked around, the decoration of the hotel is a classical European decoration, the floor is not marble but solid wood floor, and the hall is full of antique furniture and decoration. Through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, Zhang Shu saw a huge swimming pool outside the window.

The pool lights are cast on the bikini-clad Italian beauty, reflecting a neon glow on the wall.

"Zhang, what are you looking at?" Appia put his hand on Zhang Shu's shoulder from behind, making him tremble. "It turned out to be a beautiful woman."

"No. No! I'm just researching the architecture of the hotel! Zhang Shu covered up his panic.

"Let's go, I'll have time for you to study architecture in the future." Appiah gave a "I know" smile, "When you become a big star, there are a lot of buildings waiting for you to visit." He pulled Zhang Shu to the elevator. This time you're in the same room with me. ”

After everyone got into the elevator, the waiter closed the elevator door.

"There's nothing nice about Italian architecture, that is, because of the large decoration area." Standing in the crowd of elevators, Appia continued to discuss "architecture" with Zhang Shu. "It's okay to rent it once in a while, but it's only when you buy a house that we have an appetite for the original ecological buildings in Ghana."

"Ah, yes, I still prefer Chinese and Japanese architecture." Zhang Shu agreed on the side.

"I think the architectural style of Korea is similar to that of China and Japan, don't you like it?"

"The beautiful houses in Korea are all overhauled, and I don't like houses full of man-made materials."

"Zhang, you haven't rented a house before, you just look beautiful and easy to live, and you don't want to buy it."

The other team members who were riding in the same elevator with them looked at them with lewd expressions as they discussed the architectural aspects with a blank expression.

---------------------------

When all the players had packed their bags, Igor told the players to go to the conference room for a meeting.

Kanoa Park Hotel has two meeting rooms, one large and one small, both equipped with a complete projection system and other supporting facilities, but the difference in capacity. The team was small, so a small meeting room was chosen.

Appiah is not very old, only 22 years old, but he is already the team's main midfielder. He listened carefully to Mazzoni's tactical arrangements explained on the stage, and he couldn't see that he was still discussing "architecture" with Zhang Shu in a serious way just now. In contrast, Zhang Shu was not so serious, anyway, it was basically impossible for him to shake Baggio's main position, let alone replace Taray and Toney to play center, so he was drowsy on the table during the whole process.

finally waited until Mazzoni finished explaining the tactics of tomorrow's game and announced the disbandment, Zhang Shu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It was still early, and some of the players went back to their rooms to rest, some went to the hotel recreation room to play billiards and table tennis, and some went downstairs to the small bar for a drink or two. Anyway, as long as they don't leave the hotel, the players can choose their favorite entertainment.

Of course, Igor and Mazzoni will also go to the bar to watch them and not let the players get drunk there.

---------------------------

Zhang Shu didn't go with his teammates to play or drink. He chose to stay alone in his room and surf the Internet.

Before getting on the bus and leaving, Zhang Shu went back to the dormitory and stuffed the notebook he had just bought into his backpack. Although it was the first time I stayed in a hotel before the game, I had never eaten pork and watched a pig run, and my teammates brought any handhelds, CD players, MD machines, and things to pass the time. He didn't have the more portable entertainment equipment yet, so he had to carry a heavy computer on his back.

Now Zhang Shu was quite proud of his foresight, he took out his laptop from his backpack and connected to the hotel's network, Appia went to the recreation room with the others, how could he survive this boring long night without a computer.

He boarded his QQ, and there were some classmates' messages on it, most of which asked where he went, he thought about it and clicked on the QQ group in the class.

It's 10:30 p.m. in Italy and 4 a.m. in China. Although it was a weekend, it was quiet in the QQ group.

"I'm off, on my way."

No one responded in the quiet group.

He buttoned up his notebook, got up and lay down on the bed, and quickly fell asleep.
