Volume 1 Chapter 73 The First "Hat" of Serie B

Head coach Kasinwa, who left early, stood at the door of the dressing room and waited for the players to arrive, hugging each player and handing each a bottle of sports drink.

'You guys did a good job, it was unexpected, it's not that we're leading the score, it's that everyone played at the highest level and every goal we scored wasn't a surprise.

Casingwa closed the door to the dressing room and shouted excitedly to the players.

The players were tired and sweaty, gasping for air, but they were in good spirits, the game was going well, everyone played well and the players were in a good mood.

Only Chen Yu was lying on the seat and his heart was a little hot, because he had been thinking about how good it was to have a cigarette, which was a strange feeling, because Chen Yu didn't like to smoke, and he didn't know how to smoke during the game.

Team doctors, coaches, and masseurs rushed over to help the players relax their muscles and relieve fatigue.

Cassinwa continued to sum up the first half and plan the tactical play for the second half.

"In the first half we played very well, but the system of three defenders, we rarely play, there is still a little hole in the defense, I said before the game, the two backs should be inserted into the space between the three central defenders in time to assist in the defense, if we do it, the ball will not be lost, of course, between the lightning and fire, we have no habit of cooperating, and it is difficult to react, I have to say, Mangoni is very strong, in the second half we must guard against him......"

“…… Again, I want to stress that the heart of our attack is Chen, and he has to give him the ball up front, and he has proven his worth today because he can turn passes into goals......"

Cassingwa glanced at Camorani intentionally or unintentionally, because after announcing Chen Yu as the core, Camorani has an opinion, he thinks that a midfielder like himself should be the core of the organization and have priority on the ball, even in this excellent game, Camorani and Chen Yu's willingness to cooperate is still not too strong.

The players all applauded their vice-presidents, and in the first half, Chen Yu was definitely the key to the team's lead, and without his two crucial goals, the team's morale would have gone down.

And Camorani lowered his head to avoid Cassinwa's gaze, but he really had to be convinced of Chen Yu's performance today, that kind of passing, being able to hit the goal, is not much credit to the passer at all, it is definitely the forward talent, he really didn't see that Chen Yu has such a great ability in training, maybe it is really like the old player explained, this is a play-oriented player, and he can't play if he doesn't play.

In the dressing room of the visiting team, Carney did not reprimand his players, he actively adjusted the tactical play and formation in the second half, the opponent's 352 style of play choked the middle, although his own side also attacked, but it was always not as direct as the middle, so deadly, especially when the opponent had two highly efficient centers.

How to improve the quality of his attack on the flanks is the first thing Carney has to consider. After some discussion with the assistant coaches, Carney made a bold change, since the midfield is not dominant, he simply replaced the midfielder Tarana, replaced the striker Ugo, played three forwards, three midfielders, four defenders, 433 formation, the focus of the attack is completely on the wing, and Fiorentina's 352 formation.

After fifteen minutes of waiting, the players from both sides took to the pitch again, and the crowd of more than 40,000 fans erupted in a round of applause and chanted "Come on Fiorentina".

When the players stood in a good position to kick off, Casingwa saw the opponent's formation, and his heart sank, and sure enough, Carney, the old fox, changed the formation, 433, using wingers, mainly playing on the wing, wanting to make full use of the weaknesses of Fiorentina's back three to make a fuss.

Kasinwa quickly called Mugnani over and asked him to warm up on the sidelines and get ready, in case his 352 formation could not resist the opponent's 433, he had to change to Mugnani, or let one of the three midfielders drop back to play a more stable 442 formation.

After the start of the second half, Fiorentina played more solidly than the first half, after all, there were only 45 minutes left, and now they are leading by one goal, defending a little steady, and it is not impossible to keep the score 2:1 until the end of the game.

After the substitution, Piacenza was more aggressive in attack, their two forwards Hugo and Rizio were separated on either side, making it difficult for Fiorentina's back three to deal with, and if they stayed in the middle, when the two wingers got the ball, they would be very passive in the past, and it would be difficult to stop them from crossing. They used to follow the wingers, and the gap between the three defenders was too big for the opponent to cut through the ribs and shoot straight at goal.

Fiorentina didn't cope well for just a few minutes and Piacenza showed their old powerhouse, their team's second scorer, the fast Rizio, cut inside from the wing and fired a shot from a tight angle into the box, and the ball bounced off the post.

Two minutes later, Hugo combined with full-back Toto, who sent in a low cross, Mangani who flanked him in the middle to cover, and midfielder Krambo suddenly cut in from the ribs and almost cut through Sehavi's 10 fingers with a header.

There were two dangerous encounters in five minutes, and Fiorentina's solid attack had not paid off, so Kassinwa quickly let Longo drop back and switch to a back four to prevent the opponent's sharp attack on the wing.

Cassinwa commanded very well today, the first half of the line-up caught Carney off guard, relying on Chen Yu's extraordinary play, won a 2:1 lead, the second half encountered a crisis at the beginning, he did not hesitate, immediately changed the formation, and stabilized the situation again.

Carney also secretly admired on the sidelines, he couldn't figure out such a good coach, for what outside rumors Fiorentina was going to fire him, but think about a C2 striker who scored twice in the face of his Serie A defense, Carney was relieved again, there are many things that can't be figured out, let's quickly find a way to equalize.

After Fiorentina's formation became 442, the position of the midfield also changed, Di Livio, who can attack and defend, retreated, Zi Gao Fei and Gu left in front of him, and Camorani was behind Rigano and Chen Yu, so that Di Livio could make up for the weakness of Gu Zuo and Gao Fei's poor passing ability, while Camorani was more like a forward midfielder.

This formation, with a slightly inferior attack and seven men in defence, is more powerful, which is also related to the situation where Fiorentina are leading on the field, and now they don't score, as long as they keep the score until the end of the game, they can get three points.

However, against a strong team like Piacenza, defending is never the most effective way, unless your defense is at a very high level, and Fiorentina's four defenders have only been running in for more than a month, and Longo, a half-way central defender, how can he not make mistakes.

In the 55th minute of the game, fullback Maggio and Gu Zuo fought together against Piacenza winger Ugo fullback Toto, Ugo and Toto played a two-by-two cooperation, Ugo took the ball to the bottom, Maggio was very fast, Ugo did not get rid of, when the two were fighting, Ugo showed a good psychological quality, he hit the bottom line and shook the ball past Maggio into the penalty area, Maggio was a little annoyed and angry, caught up with the flying shovel from behind, the ball went out of the bottom line, but Ugo was shoveled to the ground, referee Corina immediately decided, Yellow cards were shown to Maggio and a penalty was awarded.

There was an uproar in the stands, and the Fiorentina fans couldn't stand it a little, and they booed the fallen Ugo and shouted fake falls.

However, the referee Corina has an extremely stable psychological quality, and in the midst of the wild boos of more than 40,000 fans, he has no doubts about his penalty at all, and firmly points to the penalty spot.

Piacenza main striker Mangni took the penalty, and in the face of Fiorentina goalkeeper Sejavi, Mangani easily pushed the bottom left corner to score and rewrite the score to a 2:2 draw.

Mangney, who scored a brace, smug to the stands and held up two fingers to show that he had scored two goals.

"Mangni! Hat-trick! The Piacenza fans in the stands burst into applause, chanting Mangny's name and giving him a hat-trick.

"Chen! Hat-trick! ”

The Fiorentina fans were enraged by the penalty and chanted Chen Yu's name, drowning down the cheers and shouts of the 5,000 Piacenza fans.

The commentator saw the fans fighting each other and said: "This game has become a duel between the two ace scorers of the two teams, Mangani scored 6 goals, Chen Yu scored 3 goals, Chen Yu and Mangoni both scored two goals in this game, as long as one more goal is scored, they will be able to score a hat-trick, let's see who can score the first hat-trick in Serie B today." ”

After the equaliser, Piacenza was even more aggressive in attack, and Mangni, who scored two goals, was so active that Fiorentina had to use two players to mark him.

In the other penalty area, Chen Yu also performed equally well, he also single-handedly contained Piacenza's two defenders, and created a lot of opportunities for his companion Rigano to get the ball, but Piacenza's defenders are really strong, and it is difficult for Rigano to get rid of the opportunity to form a shot one-on-one.

Just when both teams were keeping their eyes on Chen Yu and Mangney, an inconspicuous midfielder Camorani broke out.

As a member of the former Serie A team, Camorani was bought by Cassinwa to organize the midfield, and he has always regarded himself as the core of the midfield, but after coming to Fiorentina, he found that it was not the case, the spiritual leader was Di Livio, and the core of the attack became Chen Yu again, and he became an insignificant one, which made Camorani hold back his anger.

Now seeing Chen Yu playing bravely, he scored two goals before the game ended, and he also secretly competed with Chen Yu, actively running to ask for the ball, and he also had a rare defensive steal.

In the 63rd minute of the game, Camorani quickly returned to the defense when Piacenza attacked, and Piacenza's striker just knocked the ball with his heel to his midfielder, and Camorani was directly tackled.

Camorani took the ball and made a feint to shake past the rushing midfielder Lusendi, accelerated to the start, and went straight to Piacenza in the penalty area.

Piacenza's other midfielder pounced on it and was shaken off again by Camorani, who was already picking up pace.

Shaking off two interceptions in a row, Camorani had reached the edge of the penalty area, and Piacenza central defenders Sachetti and Cristante had to leave Chen Yu and Rigano aside to intercept Camorani.

Chen Yu has two players to defend, but Rigano only has Cristante to defend alone, Cristante leaves, and Rigano has formed an empty space.

But at this moment, Camorani was like a madman, at this time he didn't pass the ball or shoot, flicked the ball, and a big slash shook past Sachetti and Cristante, and smashed into the penalty area from the ribs, and volleyed vigorously.

It was a crazy moment and Sarchetti and Cristante didn't expect Camorani to continue to pass at this time, they couldn't intercept and could only watch Camorani shoot.

Camorani's breakthrough was brilliant, but the shot was a big hit and the ball bounced straight into goalkeeper Guadalben.

“…… Breakthrough! Breakthrough! Broke through two more!! Camorani shoots! The shouts of surprise from the on-site commentators did not end. Immediately changed his tone, "Bad shot!" The ball hits goalkeeper Guadalben! Guadalbourne's beautiful position saved Piacenza ......"

The on-site commentator was deeply sorry for the away goalkeeper Guadalben's shit save, but he immediately became extremely excited.

“…… God, the offensive is not over yet, it's Chan again! Chinese Chen! GOAL! CHENGOALCHENGOALCHENGOAL…… Hat-trick! Hat-trick ......"

It turned out that the ball blocked by Guadalben did not fly too far, and was just caught up by Chen Yu, who was running without the ball, the ball was not high, Chen Yu almost didn't have to jump, tiptoe, forehead, and the ball flew into the empty goal, and the defenders who followed Chen Yu were less than a meter away, but they couldn't even pull such a defensive action!

Third goal, hat-trick!

This is Chen Yu's first hat-trick in Serie B, Chen Yu is also the first player to score a hat-trick in six rounds of Serie B, and four goals also put Chen Yu in the fourth position in the scorer list.

In the unbelievable silence of the Piacenza fans, the fans in the purple Fiorentina jerseys fell into a complete frenzy.

Happiness is suddenly gained when it is about to be lost, and the joy of the fans is almost doubled!

Under the flying club flags, the excited hands of countless Fiorentina fans were almost numb, originally they thought that the goal had not been scored, but the Chinese man standing in front of the stands once again used his incredible reaction to hit the ball into the goal!

And even crazier than the fans is the head coach Casingwa!

The moment Chen Yu scored, Casingwa got rid of the assistant coach Daniel who rushed from behind, and with a look of ecstasy, ran wildly along the sideline of the court to the corner area, and then punched hard at the stands, he ran as fast as if he was 20 years younger.

"Erupted! It really broke out! ”

Zhang Shubin couldn't hold back the joy in his heart anymore, he hugged Xu Bing tightly, roared loudly, and vented the ecstasy in his heart.

"Brother Xiao Yu! You're so good! ”

Zhao Muyu and several female college fans held hands, jumping and shouting, as if they were back in childhood.
