Chapter 53: The Explosion of Genius
If Ranieri doesn't fight, the current Rome derby really doesn't have much to look forward to.
The local media in Rome don't pay much attention to the Rome derby anymore. If there is a Rome derby, it will be reported as if it were a normal game, and it will not be because it is a Rome derby, so we will increase the coverage and send more reporters.
How the league is usually reported, this league is still reported.
And Chang Sheng didn't take the initiative to provoke the opponent before the game.
He didn't think it made much sense.
The whole world knew about his feud with Rome, and he didn't need to stress it repeatedly.
Anyway, as long as you win Rome.
It's as simple and normal as eating, drinking, and breathing.
Who is a normal person who babbles every day in order to eat, drink, and breathe?
In the Rome derby at the weekend, Lazio took on Roma away.
In this game, Lazio continued their tactics with Atletico Madrid, which was possession and speed.
For such Lazio, Rome has nothing to do.
Ranieri had no choice.
But since it's a city derby, it can't just end uneventfully.

"Mario. Götze !! The narrator let out a loud roar.
In front of the door of Rome, in front of his roar, Gotze was opening his arms, ready to turn around and run!
The rest of Lazio's teammates rushed at him.
The man who scored the goal was the young Gotze!
"Mario. Gotze! He scored! It was his first goal for Lazio! ”
"Sixteen years and one hundred and sixty-six days! Mario. Gotze! He broke the record of the youngest foreign player to score a goal in Serie A set by Bodinov on January 11, 2004! Now he's the youngest foreign goalscorer! ”
"Although we have not been able to break the record of the youngest goalscorer in Serie A set by the legendary striker of Roma, Amadie, it is still remarkable to be the youngest foreign player to score a goal!"
When Mario. When Gotze scored, the commentators roared with excitement.
Neither Motta had been so excited when they had scored their first goal for Lazio.
Because it's really a historic goal!
As these commentators say, Mario. At the age of 16 years and 166 days, Gotze became the youngest foreign player to score in the history of Italian football!
The record for the youngest goalscorer in the history of Serie A belongs to Lazio's local rivals, Roma.
Amadie, Roma's legendary striker, is known as the "Eighth Emperor of Rome" by Roma fans.
At the age of 15 years, 9 months and 6 days, he played for Roma in Serie A, becoming the youngest player to make an appearance in Serie A history, a record that no one can break.
Just eight days after his debut, at the age of 15 years, 9 months and 14 days, he scored his first Serie A goal for Roma.
He is also the youngest goalscorer in Serie A history.
Again, this record is still hard to break today.
And it's hard to be broken later.
Although he was not able to surpass Amadie, Gotze's performance deserved any praise.
※※※
Chang Sheng also stood up and applauded Gotze's goal.
Although he has been with the team for several months and has played many times in the league, his statistics are still blank.
No goals, no assists.
If it hadn't been for that Champions League performance, the pressure on him would have been even greater. Even Chang Sheng didn't know if Götze would be able to withstand it.
That Champions League game saved Gotze and helped him find his form and confidence.
When the state is good, it is really a wish.
Now not only does he have an assist, but the goal has also arrived!
Chang Sheng thought to himself, in the time and space he was familiar with, Gotze's performance was already very good, he was a phenomenal player, he was the core of the attack in Dortmund, and he was the object of competition from the world's giants.
But in this time and space of his own, Mario. The grid will only perform better than that plane! Achieve Higher!
※※※
After scoring a goal, Gotze felt he was in particularly good shape today.
Scoring only one goal doesn't satisfy him.
So he continued to look for scoring opportunities in the following games, like a hungry wolf.
The hard work paid off, and in the 71st minute, he finally found another good chance to score!
Modric's powerful volley from outside the box hit the crossbar of the Roma goal and bounced back.
Götze cleverly caught the ball landing, he started early, and when the ball bounced back, he was in the right place!
So everything that follows is logical.
He lifted his foot and cushioned it gently.
Football flew into Roma's goal for the third time in this game!
"A brace! Oh, God! It's a genius show! ”
"Gotze has completely exploded! He's either not scoring or he's scoring as soon as he scores! ”
"Mario. Gotze! Our German geniuses! The German commentator was particularly excited. In recent years, German football has produced many talents. Earlier it was Khedira.
His outstanding performances at Lazio earned him a selection for the German national team. Now at Real Madrid, he is also playing remarkably.
Now that Khedira has left Lazio, Everwin has unearthed a Mario from Dortmund. Gotze!
And then there's the great young players who play in Germany...... The future of German football is worth looking forward to!
※※※
Götze, who scored a brace, was so excited that he turned and ran to the dugout, and he wanted to thank someone.
If it weren't for this man who went to his house to convince him and his family, he would probably still be playing in the youth league in Borussia Dortmund, and he would never have expected to perform so well in Serie A.
Not only did he have two goals in Serie A, but also in the Champions League, with a beautiful assist.
He is now more and more convinced that he has heeded the call of constant victory and that coming to Italy was the right decision!
Although Italian football is not the same as German football, it took him some time to get used to it. But with the boss's meticulous care and care, these difficulties are not a problem!
Gotze burst into the crowd celebrating the goal in front of the dugout, like a precision-guided cruise missile, pinpointing the winner and crashing into it.
Two people hug each other tightly!
Chang Sheng naturally knew why Götze did this.
In fact, after Gotze's brace, he also thought about Gotze's future. It was the future he knew before he crossed over.
Gotze won two league titles at Borussia Dortmund and became a central player.
That's a good enough result.
At Borussia Dortmund, however, he lacked the opportunity to prove himself on the European stage.
Borussia Dortmund are playing well in the Bundesliga and have been somewhat weak in the Champions League.
Gotze is also considered to be the only player who can play well in the Bundesliga.
But now, he's proven himself in the Champions League!
Chang Sheng thought that it should not be far from the big outbreak of Gotze.
In this world, he advanced Gotze's outburst by a long time, so what height will Gotze eventually reach?
This is a future to look forward to......
The future that has been changed by yourself, and you don't even know the result, maybe that's interesting, right?

Mario. Gotze's brace helped Lazio beat city rivals Roma 3-1 away at home.
Lazio picked up another local derby victory.
And the media has finally found a new hype spot.
That's Mario, the young talent who shines in the city derby. Gotze!
After the game, Roma Sport ran the headline "Super Mario! Gotze conquers the Olympic Stadium! 》
In this report, Mario. Götze's performance was greatly appreciated.
Even if Gotze is a Lazio player.
He conquered the opposing side with an excellent performance.
It's remarkable.
In addition to Roma Sport, there is also Milano Sport, among other media outlets, all of which are talking about Lazio's teenage talent, Mario. Gotze.
The German media is the most active and the most tangled.
Because they are happy to see the players from their own country do well, but at the same time they are unhappy that Gotze belongs to Lazio and not Dortmund.
They fear that this will be the beginning of a serious brain drain of young players in Germany.
Khedira, Mario. Gotze have proven their quality at Lazio.
In the eyes of clubs in other European countries, Germany's young players are good quality and good goods.
However, there is a rule in Germany that players under the age of 18 are not allowed to provide a work contract.
In this way, clubs in other countries can use this loophole to poach young talents in German football.
Especially the "shameless" Premier League clubs.
Because Italy and Spain are the same as Germany, they are not allowed to sign a professional contract under the age of 18.
And in England, the age at which an employment contract can be signed is...... Sixteen years old!
That's two years ahead of other countries!
Two years!
An excellent genius seedling, who has already emerged at the age of sixteen, can see whether he is really talented.
The club that owns him is naturally something to focus on.
But that gives clubs in England an opportunity.
The players they worked so hard to develop in the end ended up just making a wedding dress for the English team, which is really unfair and willing.
In the long run, who will want to develop their own young players? Anyway, in the end, all I got was a mere training fee.
That's a far cry from the value of the players themselves.
The media in Dortmund are the most excited.
They specifically criticized Chang Sheng and his Lazio at length.
They refer to Chang Sheng as "thieves."
Claiming that Chang Sheng stole Gotze from Dortmund by despicable and shameless means.
They dressed up as a scheming, ignorant teenager, who was persuaded by a few rhetorical remarks, and then deceived into going to Lazio.
They don't see Götze getting more opportunities at Lazio than he did at Dortmund, and if it weren't for Lazio, maybe everyone would only see him at youth level right now.
But because of Lazio, the whole of Europe knew about Gotze.
That's the positive meaning of Gotze's move to Lazio.
It's a pity that the media will always choose what is good for them, and what is not good for them will automatically ignore it.
