Chapter 34 Study

Ledesma's brilliant play and Cavani's sudden outburst allowed Lazio to win the match in the end.

The score was 2:1.

This shows how crucial Cavani's goal was. It can also be seen how successful Ledesma's containment of Ronaldinho was.

After the game, Chang Sheng spoke about the performance of these two men.

"Ledesma is an old friend of AC Milan...... "Chang Sheng said without forgetting to stimulate AC Milan. Then he said solemnly: "I'm very happy with his performance. He fulfilled the task I gave him satisfactorily and Ronaldinho did almost nothing under his defence...... Of course, at first he gave the other party some chances, but that was normal. No one dared to say that he could defend Ronaldinho one-on-one and let him do nothing for 90 minutes. ”

As for Cavani, Chang Sheng laughed before he could say anything.

"Cavani? I believe that this goal was not an accident, in fact I have always been very optimistic about him, I said that he does not need to be anyone's second, he is himself. He's going to start with 'Edison. Edinson Cavani's name is famous in world football! ”

With an away win at AC Milan, Lazio are the only team to have won three in a row since the start of the season.

With this performance, it doesn't look like a declining dynasty......

Have you ever seen a dynasty league that is about to fall start three rounds, but it has won three in a row, scored eight goals and conceded only two goals, and is at the top of the league table?

No!

Lazio, who are always victorious, slapped the media who sang them in the face with real results.

"In the just-concluded third round of Serie A, the focus of Lazio and AC Milan has attracted much attention. In the end, Lazio, led by our coach Chang Sheng, defeated AC Milan 2-1 away. Got a back-to-back win over AC Milan. The win also kept Lazio firmly at the top of the league table, and they are now the only team in the entire Serie A league without a loss......"

An emaciated figure sat on the couch. His little eyes were fixed on the flickering TV screen, which was playing highlights of the match between Lazio and AC Milan.

Watching Lazio's skilful passing and possession, as well as sharp counter-attacks, the man fell into deep thought.

Then, he got up and walked to the child's bedroom.

The wife was tutoring her children with homework in the bedroom when she suddenly saw her husband standing in the doorway.

He didn't say anything, but his wife knew he was looking for him.

So she told the child to do his homework well, got up and walked out. He also closed the door with his hand.

The two of them walked all the way back to the living room.

The evening sports news on the TV has been cut to the Bundesliga.

"I've decided, I'm going to Italy." The husband said to his wife.

The wife didn't seem surprised.

"I thought you had already decided......"

"I realize now that time is running out......"

"How long are you going?" The wife asked.

"I don't know......," the husband shook his head. Check it out. But I'll always come back. ”

"Actually, it's not bad to develop abroad...... my wife said.

The man shook his head firmly: "You know what my goal is. ”

When he heard this, his wife stopped talking.

I do know, and I even think she's too arrogant.

Because that goal is too far away.

She works within the Football Association and she knows very well what the organization and the top are thinking.

It is very difficult for a local Chinese coach to become the head coach of the national team. The Chinese Football Association once gave Zhu Guanghu his trust, but Zhu's final defeat convinced them that China's head coach was of a low level. Not fit to be a national team manager.

This idea changed only when Changsheng appeared.

But it's only for Chang Sheng, for everyone else, it's still the same.

The wife didn't want to talk about this too heavy topic, so she asked, "When will you leave?" ”

"The sooner the better, there's not much time." The husband replied.

The wife nodded: "Then I'll go and clean up your things." You accompany your son. ”

The man didn't refute either, nodding his head in response.

The couple separated, the man went to the son's bedroom, while the wife went to the bedroom of the two of them and began to pack up for the husband.

When he entered his son's room, he saw his son staring at him: "Dad." Where are you going? ”

The man frowned: "It's not good to do your homework, and you can eavesdrop on adults!" ”

"I'm curious. Where are you going? Are you going to go for a long time? ”

Looking at his son, he is already in the second year of junior high school this year, and it will be the third year of junior high school in another year, which is related to the matter of high school. I don't know if I will be by his side at that time.

"Go far away."

"Why go far away?" The son asked.

"Like you, go and learn." The man touched his son's head, and a rare smile appeared on his usually unsmiling face.

"Learning? Dad is an adult, do adults still need to learn? "There's something strange about my son.

"Yes, adults have to learn too."

"What are you studying?"

"Learn how to be a better manager......

When Gao Hongbo was about to leave at the capital airport, no media came to report it. For someone who has been away from the front line of Chinese football for several months, he is already angry. The media don't care about him, and the media are now busy looking for trouble with the Football Association.

The Chinese Olympic team failed miserably in the Olympic Games, losing and losing, and became a laughing stock all over the world.

The Football Association is under a lot of pressure, and he has to bear the pressure from the media and fans below, as well as the pressure from the General Administration of Sports above.

So during this time, the Football Association was very busy. This is particularly true of the Football Association's press office, which is responsible for engaging with the media.

So as his wife, Cheng Wei, deputy director of the Information Office of the Chinese Football Association, did not come to the airport to see him off.

Gao Hongbo took a taxi to the airport alone and took his luggage from the trunk. Then one person handles the registration card and checks in the baggage. Eventually, a person passes through security. Walked into the terminal building.

From here, he will go to Rome, Italy, where he is going to learn to recharge, improve himself, and find a path that suits him and Chinese football.

Rome, Furmelo training base. The location of Lazio's training ground.

Every day, a large number of journalists, fans, and ...... gather here Scouts from various clubs.

Chang Sheng has proven his coaching ability and his eye for excellence through his actual results.

All the players he fancies, no matter how down-and-out and obscure they were before. As long as you train under him for a season, you can make a big difference!

Therefore, there is such an unspoken rule in European football, that is, the player who is optimistic about winning must have a great future in the future.

So these Lazio will have a lot of teams begging them. They're here to see these players up close. If they see a suitable one, they will report back to the club, which will allow the club to make contact with Lazio to see if they can take the promising player away from Lazio.

They have already succeeded in taking Macheda in this way.

He went to Manchester United last summer. He signed a professional contract with Manchester United this summer.

Manchester United must have felt they had found a treasure, while Lazio's chief scout Ataca Pataka was distressed.

However, Chang Sheng himself was indifferent to this. He knew Macheda's future, and he didn't think the kid was as good as the media had blown it up. When he first made his debut at Manchester United, the momentum was really strong. The whole world media is touting him as the next Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

But Chang Sheng knew that this kid would go on in obscurity later. He had a good start at Manchester United but not a good end.

Injuries slowed his progress and eventually stalled. In order to get enough appearances, he had to be loaned around.

Sampdoria, Queen's Park Rangers and Stuttgart have all left his mark.

However, his performances have never reached the heights of his two double substitute appearances at Manchester United.

He made 14 league appearances for Sampdoria. Not a single goal. Played twice in the Coppa Italia and scored one goal.

Queens Park Rangers made three appearances without scoring a single goal. Played once in the cup and didn't score a single goal.

Five appearances in Stuttgart without a single goal. One cup appearance. Not a single goal. Three appearances in Europe without scoring a single goal.

At Manchester United. In the 2008-2009 season, he made four league appearances and scored two goals - these are the two goals that made him famous. Played once in the cup and didn't score a single goal.

In the 2009-2010 season, he made five league appearances and scored one goal. Three cup appearances and zero goals. Two appearances in the Champions League, zero goals.

In the 2010-2011 season, the league produced seven times and scored one goal. Three cup appearances and zero goals. Two appearances in the Champions League, not a single goal.

In 2011-2012 cup appearances, no goals. There are no appearances in the league or the Champions League.

In the 2012-2013 season, he made one appearance in the Cup without scoring and two appearances in the Champions League without scoring. There is no record of appearances in the league.

With such a performance, it is really difficult for Chang Sheng to have any intention of retaining Macheda......

The talent's greatest glory came in the 2008-2009 season, when he came off the bench. And then the magic is gone.

Lazio's first team had the largest crowd outside the training ground.

Because there are stars here.

And the most popular perennial wins...... Perhaps the most talked-about ......

Gao Hongbo huddled in the crowd, holding a small notebook and ballpoint pen in his hand. He carefully watched Lazio's training, and then recorded it in his little notebook from time to time.

It was noisy and there were a lot of people, but it was a distraction.

On the training ground, Lazio is working as an assistant coach Rudy. Gonzalez and Di Matteo are warming up.

Gao Hongbo found that after running a lap without the ball, at the beginning of the second lap, Lazio added football to the warm-up running lap!

Laps are one of the easiest and most common pre-workout warm-ups.

Any team would do that, and when he was the head coach of the domestic club and the assistant coach of the national team, he also arranged the warm-up.

But he didn't think about joining the football circle with the ball......

And it's not just as simple as running with the ball.

Under the whistle of the assistant coach, the team running the lap kept changing speeds, sometimes fast, sometimes slow.

In this change of pace, it is not easy to lead the football well.

But most of Lazio's players are fine.

They're already skilled!

Gao Hongbo observed carefully and found that the assistant coach's whistle was not regular, sometimes it would be fast, slow, fast and slow, and sometimes it would be fast or slow, and the time of fast and slow was not fixed, which seemed to completely depend on the mood of the assistant coach......

But Lazio's players were able to cope with it and always make the right moves, and just like that, Lazio ran the remaining three laps with the ball, and then finished the basic lap warm-up and regrouped.

Then Chang Sheng walked among the players, and the players helped each other do stretching exercises, relax muscles and move ligaments, while listening to what Chang Sheng said.

This is also different from other warm-ups that Gao Hongbo has seen.

The other teams will wait until everyone has done all the warm-up moves before they gather to announce today's workout.

But perennial winning teams do do and listen as they go.

Is this to save time, or is it to give players the ability to multitask?

Although he was only warming up now, he felt more and more that he had come to Italy to study.

Looking at the two pages of the small notebook and remembering the dense points and feelings, Gao Hongbo now has an idea......

What a benefit! (To be continued......)
