After Sampdoria equalized the score, everyone thought the game would be a little calmer, but in fact the game scene was indeed dull.

But I didn't expect Gao Zheng to break the dullness so quickly.

Gao Zheng made an unusual forward move and shot inadvertently, and even pierced Uvestabia's goal for the second time!

"Gao Mei scored twice! This is his sixteenth league goal this season! Sampdoria took the lead in turn! This is good news for Sampdoria!"

After scoring the goal, Gao Zheng didn't run wildly to celebrate, but just stood there with open arms and waited for his teammates to come up and hug him.

Coach Iachini hugged his assistant Carrillo off the court.

This goal made the stones in many people's hearts fall.

For other games, a one-goal lead is not safe.

But for Sampdoria now, it is safe to be able to lead by one goal.

Even if Uvestabia pulls back a goal in the next game, it will be a draw, which is not unacceptable for Sampdoria.

Moreover, judging from the level of the two teams, when Sampdoria is neither impatient nor underestimating the enemy, it is hard to say whether Uvestabia will definitely be able to equalize the score.

Icardi, who was on the bench, witnessed Gao Zheng's two goals. Although he scored 32 goals in the reserve team, he knew very well that those 32 goals were even worse than one goal of the first team. not on.

Everyone was in the reserve team last season, and they scored more goals than Gao Zheng.

But now Gao Zheng is already the core player of the entire first team. Looking at his performance in the second division, Icardi has the illusion that this is no different from when he played in the reserve team.

At that time, everyone said that the reserve team and the first team were two completely different worlds, and there was an almost insurmountable moat between the two worlds. Not every player who plays in the reserve team, or even the main player, can be promoted to the first team, let alone play in the first team.

Regardless of whether it was in Sampdoria, Icardi also saw many high-profile La Masia geniuses when he was in La Masia, but he couldn't even play in the first team.

Either accept the arrangement to go out on loan to exercise, or transfer directly and leave Barcelona, ​​​​which cannot play games.

Even he himself, who performed well in the Sampdoria reserve team last season, has not played for the first team this season.

So the difference between the reserve team and the first team is something every player knows.

Only in Gao Zheng, this difference seems to no longer exist...

That's right, Gao Zheng didn't play in all 14 rounds of the league for the first team, but that doesn't mean he's not good enough, but because of conflicts with the original head coach. If this relationship is put aside, Gao Zheng's level may have become the core of the team, and now his performance in the team is the best proof.

Seeing Gao Zheng's performance in this game as if trying to turn the tide, Icardi felt powerless for the first time, wondering if it would be difficult for him to catch up with this person.

However, this frustration only lasted for a very short time, and Icardi cheered himself up: "No! I haven't played in the first team yet, how can I say that I am not as good as him? Never voluntarily surrender!"

Sampdoria is now only one goal ahead, although even if the score is equalized, it can lock the top six in advance. But wouldn't it be better if you could secure a spot for the promotion playoffs with a victory? If you want to win this game, you need to score more goals, at least you can't lead by one goal all the time, you have to score another goal...

Thinking of this, Icardi set his sights on the head coach Iachini, and he looked forward to being able to come off the bench in this game and score a goal for the team to seal the victory.

Completing his debut in this way should leave a deep impression on people, and at the same time make him eligible to challenge Gao Zheng in the first team.

After Gao Zheng scored twice, until the end of the first half, neither side scored again. The score was still 2:1, with Sampdoria leading Uvestabia.

In the other few games, Varese had already led Ascoli 2:0 at home at the end of the first half, and it should not be a problem to win this game.

Padua still leads Gubbio 1:0, but if Padua can't win this game, then it doesn't matter what the result of the game between Sampdoria and Uvestabia is.

During the intermission, Iachini did not make any adjustments to the team's starting lineup, and Gao Zheng still stayed on the court.

Icardi wants to come off the bench and has to wait.

In the second half, the two sides changed places to fight again, and Uvestabia's counterattack was not as fierce as the first half.

And Sampdoria seems to be more satisfied with a one-goal lead.

The pace of the game is slow.

After another 60 minutes, Icardi was called from the bench to warm up, and he knew that his chance had come.

It seems that Gao Zheng's physical fitness is unlikely to play the whole game, and he is about to replace Gao Zheng.

Icardi ran to the warm-up area. In fact, he wished that he had already warmed up and could play the game immediately. In that case, he would have 30 minutes left, enough for him to do something.

But just as Icardi was warming up, Gao Zheng pulled to the side and sent Pellet a comfortable pass. Pellet jumped up in the air and pushed the football into Uvista Biya's goal!

"Pellet! His seventh Serie B goal of the season! His goal helped Sampdoria seal the victory! Although there were more than 20 minutes left in the game, Sampdoria, which was leading by two goals Looks almost invincible!"

The goal was celebrated from the Sampdoria bench and dugout.

But Icardi, who is warming up, is a little depressed.

This goal should be scored by him!

Unexpectedly, Gao Zheng actually assisted Pellet...

He suddenly felt that his playing had lost its significance.

He stared at Gao Zheng who was hugging with Pellet, and snorted in his heart: The relationship is really good!

Not long after Pellet scored, Sampdoria made a substitution adjustment due to a chance of a dead ball.

Icardi is indeed about to be replaced.

But what he wanted to replace was not Gao Zheng, but...Pellet!

The narrator Valentino Silio was surprised by this arrangement of Iachini.

When Icardi returned to the coaching bench from the warm-up area before, he said with certainty that Gao Zheng would be replaced.

As a result, when the fourth official held up the substitution sign, he realized that it was No. 99 Pellet, not No. 40 Gao Zheng...

"This... Icardi replaced Pellet? Iachini intends to let Gao stay on the court... Uh, judging from the previous games, Gao did not seem to be exhausted. It stands to reason that You can stay on the court, but if Gao loses his fitness later, don’t you have to replace him? Why not replace Gao directly? Sampdoria is now two goals ahead of their opponents. Does Iachini still think this? Isn't the score safe?"

The TV broadcast gave Icardi a close-up shot of Icardi looking at the pitch with a very serious expression.

"This is a memorable first-team debut for a talent from the Sampdoria reserve team... He was partnered with Gao in the reserve team, and their combination of strikers helped the Sampdoria reserve team get the reserve national team last season. Champion. Maybe Iachini is trying to copy the striker combination of the reserve team?"

"You want to use the tacit understanding between Gao and Icardi in the reserve team to continue to maintain the offensive threat to Uvestabia... But I always feel that the relationship between the two of them is not as good as the outside rumors... "Assistant coach Carrillo said to Iachini next to him. "I heard that on the first day Icardi was called up to the first team, there was a conflict in the dressing room. The two sides almost fought. The fuse of this conflict was because of Icardi. Gao's attitude is not very good... Do you think this is something that should happen between good friends?"

"But what I heard is that the two of them were inseparable friends as early as the training camp at the beginning of the season." Iachini spread his hands. "And it is said that the reason why Icardi returned to the reserve team was because he got too close to Gao and was angered by Atzori."

"Maybe it was because of this incident that the relationship between the two broke down?" Assistant coach Carrillo keenly grasped the key point, and he made a logical speculation. "Icardi, who was relegated to the reserve team because of his friendship, saw his good friend Gao stay in the first team and finally made it through. When he thought about who he could only play in the reserve team , and now he is very famous, but he is still waiting for the chance to play in the first team. The heart is extremely unbalanced, so the old friends turned against each other..."

"Carrillo..."

"What's the matter, Giuseppe?"

"I think the football coach really delayed you, you should be a screenwriter or novelist..."
