Prominence in Football Community

"Tall! Tall...beautiful! The swing of his body is so small that it is almost inaudible! But it made him move away from Albiol very quickly!"

When Gao Zheng passed Albiol at the Marasi Stadium, the shouts that had been going on suddenly increased a little.

Another Naples central defender, Fernandez, rushed over to defend.

Originally, he and Albiol were not far apart, in order to prevent this situation-once his central defender partner was passed, he could immediately come to make up the defense. The offensive players will not be given too much time to react and adjust.

But Gao Zheng's reaction speed was much faster than his.

As soon as Fernandez rushed over, he saw Gao Zheng making a move to break through from the right. After he shifted his focus, he raised his right foot and made a feint. Instead, he tapped the football in the opposite direction with the outer instep of his left foot. , The football avoided Fernandez's outstretched foot to steal the ball by a small margin.

At the same time, Gao Zheng swayed and rushed past Fernandez's left!

The two consecutive passes were small, subtle and sudden. Neither Albiol nor Fernandez could keep up with Gao Zheng's rhythm. Facing Gao Zheng's breakthrough, they could do nothing but watch. Watching Gao Zheng wipe past them.

As long as the two sides are close, they can stop Gao Zheng as long as they stretch out their hands, but in this sudden change of rhythm, they can't even reach out - they just froze in place, watching Gao Zheng step into their restricted area!

"High! He went in! Two consecutive changes in direction, beautiful!"

The cheers at the Marathi Stadium are almost at their peak.

After two people in a row, Gao Zheng, who dribbled the ball into the penalty area, did not completely get rid of Naples' defense.

Inle, who returned to the defense at high speed, had already entered the penalty area and was pressing towards him from the center. At the same time, goalkeeper Reina also moved to the near corner to block his shooting angle.

Gao Zheng flicked the football to the outside, and after pulling away the distance between himself and Yinle, he volleyed with his left foot!

He shot this kick very decisively. Although it was not sudden and the angle was not too big, it was very accurate.

The football sprinted across the turf towards the far corner of the goal.

Reina sealed the near corner but failed to seal the far corner and the football rolled past his feet,

Quickly ran to the back corner of the goal.

And another Naples player who returned to the defense in place, the defensive midfielder Jorginho didn't care about the fact that he might cause an own goal at this time, and still shoveled towards the football, hoping to clear the football.

But he didn't touch anything.

The football hit the inside of the far post before him and bounced into the goal. Then, he also slid into the goal.

"Wow!" Caresa exclaimed excitedly. "High! A beautiful solo pass! Sampdoria took the lead in just thirteen minutes!"

DiFrancisco stormed out of the dugout amidst the din, spun around, waved his arms, and finally embraced his assistant coach.

This is why he can not only put the bus in front of the goal, but also play a defensive counterattack to threaten the opponent's goal.

Because he has Gao Zheng!

The omnipotent Gao Zheng!

His super personal ability allows him to score goals without the support of his teammates.

"Sampdoria made a good start at home! They took the lead early! If they can beat Naples by a big score at home, then they will have the upper hand in the competition for the final qualification!"

Di Francesco in the camera smiles very happily.

After the goal, Gao Zheng ran to the corner flag area with open arms, where he hugged his teammates to celebrate the goal.

He set his goal as the Coppa Italia champion, so no matter what, he will let the team reach the final, and he will definitely not be afraid of difficulties just because the opponent is the third in the league.

He doesn't know if every one of his teammates thinks the same as him.

He is not the captain either, and of course even the captain cannot force others to follow his will.

But fortunately he is a striker, he can still show his will and determination on the court. That is to use goals.

One goal after another can not only help the team reach the final, but also show everyone his firm determination to achieve the goal.

Then he doesn't need to use words to encourage his teammates. After seeing his performance, others will naturally follow suit.

There are many kinds of leaders, and Gao Zheng felt that he would definitely not be able to be that kind of leader in the future.

But if it is to lead the team with practical actions, then he is very happy.

Sampdoria's teammates rushed up and hugged Gao Zheng. Everyone laughed and roared happily, expressing their inner emotions.

In the background for them are the cheery and dancing Sampdoria fans in the stands.

On the Naples side, captain Hamsik was clapping his hands, loudly reminding his teammates not to be discouraged: "It's just a ball! Let's get it back!"

But luck didn't seem to be on Naples' side this time.

After the game restarted, Naples did step up their offense, and even the two full-backs frequently invested in the offense.

As for Sampdoria, after taking the lead, they did not take advantage of the situation to press out and attack, but continued to fight back steadily.

Ten minutes later, in the 23rd minute, Naples' left back Revier accidentally strained his thigh muscle during a sprint and was unable to continue the game.

Benitez had to use one of his substitutions early on, replacing an injured Levier with substitute left-back Faozzi Ghulam.

The young left-back arrived at Napoli from Ligue 1 side Saint-Etienne during the winter break.

This substitution disrupted Benitez's plan and also disrupted the rhythm of Naples' game. Even the goal threat of besieging Sampdoria is not that great.

In the 32nd minute, Naples seized the opportunity to push forward and hit the goal of Naples. In the end, Berardi pushed the football into the goal of Naples.

"2:0!! Woohoo! Sampdoria is so imposing at home! It took a two-goal lead before the first half ended! Just looking at the performance in the first half, it's really impressive It's hard to believe that Sampdoria are only seventh in the league this season!"

Bergomi said: "If Sampdoria did not play in the Champions League and concentrated on playing in the league, their ranking would not be what it is now. I think it should be no problem to enter the top four..."

"It's really like this..." Caresa suddenly felt a little emotional.

The last time Sampdoria participated in the UEFA Champions League, if they could rank seventh in the league, it is estimated that Sampdoria fans would laugh to death. Any commentator or reporter will think this ranking is a satisfactory result.

But now, ranking seventh in the league, it actually makes me think "this result is not satisfactory".

What the hell.

But it is true.

With Sampdoria's current level, seventh place in the league is indeed a bit low.

The difference between the two is that the former does not have Gao Zheng, while the latter has Gao Zheng.

For the former, Gao Zheng was still in the reserve team and could not help the team at all.

This second goal seems to have nothing to do with Gao Zheng, but if it wasn't because Gao Zheng posed too much threat to Naples, Naples had to send more defensive players to defend him, and take him as the focus when defending How can Berardi get a chance to head the goal when he is marking the character?

I think Di Francesco made Gao Zheng the core of the team's offense when he went to Sampdoria, which aroused doubts from the media.

Think again before the start of this season, everyone talked about Sampdoria's prospects this season, and some people thought that Gao Zheng would be short-lived.

Now, both voices have disappeared.

The face is swollen...
