After Berardi's goal, Sampdoria deliberately slowed down the pace and speed. After all, they had already led by two goals and there was not much time left in the first half.

The morale on the Naples side was also hit, and they couldn't cheer up.

Until the end of the first half, the score was not rewritten.

Sampdoria entered the break with a two-goal lead.

"It's a surprise. Although Sampdoria has the advantage of playing at home, no one thought before the game that Sampdoria could take a two-goal lead in the first half. I think everyone may have to change one point of view. , that is, when Sampdoria can concentrate on a competition, they are still very competitive..."

Caresa looked at the Sampdoria players leaving the field and said.

Sampdoria's bench is not thick enough, so they can only rely on a lineup to win the world. If they have a bench as thick as a giant, I am afraid they can really challenge Juventus' league supremacy.

There was also a relaxed atmosphere in the stands of the Marathi Stadium during the halftime break.

Sampdoria fans used the break to eat, drink and go to the bathroom.

Everyone gathered in groups to chat about the team's prospects in the Coppa Italia.

Although Di Francesco has never expressed his ambition in the Coppa Italia in any public occasion, but the cup has played to this point, everyone can see that Sampdoria is definitely not willing to give up the Coppa Italia.

We have reached the semi-finals, and any team will hope to reach the final.

As for the teams that reached the finals, I am afraid that no one will be satisfied with winning the runner-up.

"Hey, you said our team's goal is not to win the Coppa Italia?"

"It really makes sense..."

"It would be great if we can win the championship!"

"Well, if you can't win the league championship, you can also win the Coppa Italia. Don't even think about the Champions League..."

Everyone was looking forward to the scene where the team won the Coppa Italia championship. Just thinking about it, happy smiles appeared on their faces.

Although Sampdoria was known as the "Seven Sisters" in the golden age of Serie A,

It was a strong team at the time. But in fact, Sampdoria's honor is not much. It's just that when Serie A was broadcast on CCTV, it happened to be the most glorious time for Sampdoria, so it gave people the feeling of a traditional strong team.

But in fact, in terms of honor, Sampdoria lackluster.

They have only won the Serie A championship once, that is, in the 1990-1991 season, from AC Milan with the "Dutch Three Musketeers", Inter Milan with the "German Troika", and Naples with the "South American Trident" Maradona. Grabbing a league championship is naturally outstanding.

The most glorious time for Sampdoria was during that time. They not only won the league championship, but also won the runner-up in the Champions League. They lost to Barcelona led by Cruyff in the Champions League final.

At the same time in the 1989-1990 season they also won the European Cup Winners Cup.

In the 1993-1994 season, he won the Italian Cup.

In the 1991-1992 season, he won the Italian Super Cup.

In addition, they also won the Italian Cup in the 1984-1985, 1987-1988, and 1988-1989 seasons.

From 1984 to 1994 was the most successful and glorious moment since Sampdoria was founded.

Most of their influential championships were also won at this time.

In addition to this, he only won the Serie B championship once in the 1966-1967 season.

Because there are not many championships, every possible chance to win a championship can make Sampdoria fans excited and hopeful.

The 15-minute intermission passed quickly amidst everyone's pleasant chats and longings.

※※※

When both players played again, neither team made substitutions.

But perhaps the Sampdoria players were as relaxed as the fans during the intermission, so that after the second half began, Napoli's offensive came up before they had time to get into shape.

Unlike Sampdoria's unpreparedness, Naples was well prepared. Obviously their coach Benitez made a lot of targeted adjustments during the intermission.

In response to Sampdoria's intensive defense, Naples did not have a single winger, because the first half of the game proved that this style of playing on the side and then passing to the center is not very effective.

After all, Naples' center is Higuain, not a center who is good at solving problems with headers.

In addition, whether it is Gastadro or Alberto Massi on Sampdoria's side, both of them have good heights and headers. It is basically difficult for Higuain to find opportunities.

So at the beginning of the second half, Naples changed their style of play, increasing the number of long-range shots, and at the same time, they also cut in more from the wing, instead of directly passing simply and rudely.

This change really caught Sampdoria by surprise, and Sampdoria did not enter the state.

Two minutes into the second half, in the forty-seventh minute of the game, Callejon took the ball from the wing and cut in, then suddenly shot a cold arrow and took a long shot from the front of the penalty area.

Romero, despite making a save, was unable to touch the ball.

The football kept spinning, bypassing Romero's ten fingers, and went straight to the far corner of the goal!

"Danger!"

With Caresa's exclamation, the football hit the goal post and bounced out!

"Oh--!" The Sampdoria fans in the stands let out a horrified sound.

Just when the Sampdoria fans were about to drop their suspended hearts back down, the bouncing football hit the back of Romero, who had not yet landed, and rebounded again, this time toward Flying towards the goal...

There is nothing in the huge goal that can stop the goal from happening.

When the football flew into the goal, the Marasi Stadium fell into silence-everyone hadn't reacted yet, and no one was prepared to face the conceded goal...

"This... GOL!! Callejon! He scored a goal for Naples!"

Callejon himself was stunned. He didn't expect the goal to go in. When he saw the football hit the goal post, he raised his hands, ready to hold his head in regret, but he didn't hold his head. The football bounced back into the goal.

He froze for a moment, his hands hanging above his head.

After reacting, the hands were raised again, from regret to celebration.

His teammates swarmed and overwhelmed him.

The Sampdoria players inside and outside the penalty area were stupefied - they didn't expect to concede the ball like this, and it was just two minutes into the second half.

The originally safe two-goal lead turned into a very dangerous one-goal lead in an instant!

Many Sampdoria players have not yet entered the game state, and they have suffered such a huge impact...

Head coach Di Francesco stared at the court with his eyes wide open from the sidelines, with a confused look on his face.

Then he turned to his assistant and asked: "Did we really concede the ball?"

The assistant coach nodded regretfully.

"Damn it!" Di Francesco couldn't help cursing.
