Chapter Seventy-Two: Welcome to St. Petersburg! (First Update)
Chen Hero really did not know that in the corner of the city of Naples, his first fan organization in Naples was born ().
By this time, he had already set off for Turin, in northern Italy.
On November 2, in the 11th round of the league, Napoli challenged Juventus away ().
After playing at home to AC Milan, it was another tough game.
Considering that after this game, the team will go to St. Petersburg to challenge Zenit, which may be a match related to whether the team can successfully qualify from the group.
So this time, even Chen Yingxing did not appear in the starting lineup, he just went to Turin, but as a bench player.
Chen Yingying, who has already signed Inzaghi in the virtual copy, suddenly didn't care so much about earning ***, after all, ...... To learn from Inzaghi, you have to learn for at least one season. Now his experience only needs to be used to level up.
Since he is not in a hurry to make ***, Chen Yingying is not so obsessed with whether the game with Juventus is a starter, and he just listens to how the head coach arranges him. The manager gave them a rest, definitely to prepare for the away game against Zenit.
In fact, Chen Yingying is also thinking about this game.
How powerful Zenit's home stadium is, Chen Yingying knows very well.
If it is said that Napoli's home stadium is only causing problems for the opponents because of the terrifying noise of the fans. So even if there is not a single fan at Zenit's home stadium, it is scary enough...... The premise has to be in the winter.
It already snowed in St. Petersburg in October, and the temperature plummeted in November, and the weather was not bad for Naples.
In such a situation, Napoli wants to go north to challenge Zenit St. Petersburg, how can they have the heart to deal with Juventus?
In the end, Napoli, who played as a full substitute, lost to the home team Juventus with a score of 1:3 away from home, Chen Yingying did not get a minute of playing time, and in addition to warming up for more than ten minutes, he sat on the bench and watched the whole game.
After the game, no one was surprised or angry about the team's defeat to Juventus away from home, because everyone knew what Mazzarri was giving up the game for.
Compared to the Champions League, the opponents in the domestic league have naturally become less important - a team like Juventus, which can meet at least twice a season, loses this time, and has a chance to get revenge next time. What about the Champions League? It's hard to say whether you can enter the main competition this season and whether you can be next season...... So at the moment, Napoli's strategic focus is on the Champions League, and they don't think about anything but the Champions League. At least wait until the Champions League group stage is over to see the situation, if Napoli can break into the knockout stage for the first time, they will definitely continue to work hard in the Champions League and strive to go further. If they are eliminated from the group stage, then they will be honest in the league and try to qualify for the Champions League next season.
Morality. Didn't Laurentiis say that? In five years, Napoli will become a new giant. If a team can't even play in the Champions League every year, how can it talk about becoming a giant?
So this away defeat did not set off any storm in Napoli or even in Italy, such as a real crisis of confidence in Mazzalhi......
In fact, Mazzari has done a very good job, this is his first season in charge of Napoli, he led the team to a good result in the Champions League group stage, and people can't help but be interested in what he can bring if he can continue to coach Napoli......

Returning to Naples from Turin, the team began to prepare for the match against Zenit St. Petersburg.
But it's still the same thing, and the Napoli players know very well what the team's tactics are, and they practice those things every day in training. Judging by the training, Mazzar did not plan to do anything new in St. Petersburg.
What everyone cares about most is not tactics or lineups at all, but the weather.
"Is it really that cold in the winter in St. Petersburg?" When Chen Yingying told his teammates about the anecdote of someone who drank too much and went to the tree in the heavy snow in the middle of the night, and was directly frozen in place and couldn't move, some teammates asked Arshavin, a native of St. Petersburg, with palpitations.
"Not as exaggerated as he said." Arshavin, who could barely communicate with everyone in Italian, said with a smile. "But it's really cold. I think...... You may not be comfortable with that kind of weather. ”
Chen Yingying saw that someone didn't believe what he said, so he glared at him: "Hey, Ma Qiao, you kid...... If you don't believe me, you can go to St. Petersburg, take out the *** and pee outside! I'll tell you that everything from pee to *** will be frozen for you by the roots! When the time comes, you will really have to leave your roots in St. Petersburg......"
"I'm not an exhibitionist!" Ma Qiao said angrily.
"Hahaha!" The locker room resounded with the laughter of his teammates.
"Anyway! Pay special attention to keep warm! It's okay not to show your ***, Chris ...... "Chen Yingying reminded Ma Qiao very "kindly".
"!" Ma Qiao raised his middle finger at Chen Yingying.
Everyone laughed merrily, as if the cold in St. Petersburg was just a joke made by Chen Yingying to Ma Qiao......
In fact, Chen Yingying just hopes that everyone will not care too much about the weather and make them timid...... He did this to distract his teammates.
But he's not sure if he's doing it or not.
But he himself was actually looking forward to returning to St. Petersburg.
Although he had only been there for two years, he was very impressed. Here, he has a large number of fans and enjoys the treatment of a star. Despite the fact that the Russian league is a relatively closed competition, Zenit St. Petersburg was not a big team before he arrived. But here he is, like the Emperor of the Earth, he is the hero of the city!
Now that this hero has returned to the place where he became famous, what will greet him?
Will there be scantily clad sexy chicks who are *** excited?

The trip to St. Petersburg in Naples seems to have had a rough run from the start ().
First of all, I flew halfway and received a radio saying that the weather in St. Petersburg was abnormal, the wind and snow were heavy, the visibility was not good, and I might have to return home...... This caused a commotion throughout the Napoli team. Then, after waiting anxiously and uneasily for half an hour, he said that the weather in St. Petersburg was slightly better, and continued to go to St. Petersburg as originally planned.
Just as the plane was about to fly into the air of St. Petersburg, it encountered turbulence again, and the distance of the plane was turbulent. At that moment, Chen Yingying almost thought that he was going to hang up...... The thought that came to his mind was - in this situation, would Dracula be able to save himself by rushing over?
Fortunately, it was just a bump for a while, and the plane stabilized.
Then the cabin sounded in Italian from the Russian captain with a thick Russian accent: "Haha! Congratulations on your survival! Please rest assured that our aircraft are available! This is made in Russia! ”
The people who escaped death were not in the mood to meet the captain of this stinky fart, but responded with warm applause - after all, after walking through the ghost gate, he really had to thank the pilots for their excellent skills. In case it hangs here, the book should end there...... Obviously, this is definitely not what everyone wants to see.
After passing through the turbulence, the plane still did not land, but circled over St. Petersburg, waiting for the command of the aviation tower. Due to the previous weather, many flights were delayed, and the airport dispatch had to direct those delayed planes to take off, and there were many planes circling in the air waiting to land like them, and everyone needed to queue up for landing on a first-come, first-served basis, unless you were about to run out of fuel, you could cut the queue......
After circling like this for an unknown number of laps, when the fuselage trembled and finally taxied on the runway, the cabin erupted in loud applause and whistles. After all these changes, everyone is sincerely happy and glad that they are still alive to come down from heaven.
Many Napoli players are among them, and as stars, they may be more afraid of death than ordinary people......
Mazari wiped the sweat from his forehead as he unbuckled his seat belt. I thought that next time the team went to an Eastern European country to play away, I would have to suggest that the club owner arrange a private jet...... Such a toss is really a serious impact on the team's combat effectiveness.
Air crashes have always had a profound impact on world football. Manchester United and Torino were both wiped out by a plane crash at their peak, and he doesn't want his Napoli to do the damn thing.
He even wanted to ask the club president to arrange a private jet to pick him up after the away game......
After the plane came to a standstill, many people unbuckled their seat belts and prepared to leave the plane. Napoli were the first to get off the plane because they were flying first class en masse.
At the head of the line was the team's captain, Paul. Cannavaro, he was the first to step out of the cabin door and stand on the gangway. And then......
He shuddered.
Christian following him. Macho didn't expect the captain to stop suddenly, he didn't stop his feet, and hit his head. Then he looked up and opened his mouth and asked, "How......"
As soon as he opened his mouth, there was a gust of wind, and the cold air slammed into his mouth with the gust of wind......
Next, everyone saw Maggio cover his mouth and bend over and cough violently.
And the third Hamsik who came out sneezed loudly.
At this moment, the voice of the entire flight attendant, including the bearded captain, who was standing at the cabin door to see off the passengers, rang out: "Welcome to St. Petersburg!" ”
In the midst of Macho's red face and red ears, even tears came out of his eyes, St. Petersburg gave the whole Napoli team a dismount......
