This conceded goal really stunned Sampdoria, no matter the way or time period of conceding the goal, it was very unexpected.

Even Gao Zheng didn't expect that in the second half, he didn't even touch the ball, so he conceded the ball.

Naples, whose morale was boosted by this goal, took advantage of the situation to launch a more violent offensive against Sampdoria.

They saw hope of advancing to the final.

The Coppa Italia semi-final is a two-leg home and away game, and the away goal advantage will be calculated. Generally speaking, one away goal is worth two goals.

Now Naples has an away goal, and the score has become 1:2. Even if this score is maintained until the end, Naples can fully accept this score. Back at home, they only need to score one more goal, beat Sampdoria 1:0, and they can eliminate their opponents by virtue of away goals.

That's why a lot of people say it's a more favorable schedule to go first. Because playing at home in the second round took the initiative.

Of course, the game is not over yet, and no one can say what will happen next.

But Sampdoria can score, Napoli can score too.

If Naples can score another goal and chase the score to 2:2, the advantage will be even greater.

Therefore, the Naples players are encouraged and continue to attack the Sampdoria goal.

Although this goal was not counted on Callejon's head in the end, but Romero's own goal, but Callejon was not affected by this at all. The motorcycle was fully powered and hit Sampdoria over and over again. Asia's defense.

It's also an assault on the side, because the mentality and morale of the players of the two teams are different, so the final result is completely different.

Facing the continuous impact of Callejon and other Naples players, Sampdoria's defense can only be exhausted and a little embarrassed.

I can't even take care of the counterattack. I must defend with all my strength, and I have no chance to counterattack at all.

But even so, it still failed to stop Naples' offensive.

After all, the team that can rank third in the league is by no means in vain.

In the 61st minute, the Belgian midfielder Dries Mertens, who had just come off the bench, dribbled the ball straight in from the midfield, dodging the defense of two Naples players along the way.

When he just entered the penalty area, he kicked decisively and shot the football towards Sampdoria's goal before being intercepted by Gastadro.

Romero touched the football this time, but failed to change the direction of the football, and the football flew into the goal!

"Oh! My God! Mertens! Mertens! Naples evened the score!! After the start of the second half, it was obvious that Sampdoria couldn't find the feeling and rhythm of the first half. It was too early Losing the ball made them flustered and passive! The two-goal lead is fleeting!" Caresa put her head in her hands with an incredible expression on her face. "Trouble! Sampdoria is in a big crisis!"

"Sampdoria must have been too relaxed. The situation has completely reversed. It may be difficult for them to find the rhythm of the first half now..." Bergomi frowned. "This young team is still not stable enough, there is no way, the price of being young..."

※※※

The players in Naples were celebrating the goal crazily, and Naples coach Benitez, who is usually unsmiling, was also very excited at the moment, and the few Naples fans in the stands were crazy.

From falling behind by two goals in the first half to chasing two goals in a row, the people of Naples are entitled to be proud and proud of their performance.

In stark contrast to this is naturally the silent Sampdoria fans.

If it weren't for the wild shouts of the few Naples fans, the Marassi Stadium at this moment is as quiet as a morgue in a hospital.

When being chased back by a goal, many Sampdoria fans could still comfort themselves: "It's okay, we still lead by one goal, and it's not like there is no precedent for winning the game with only one goal..."

But now, Mertens used this goal to shatter the fluke in the minds of Sampdoria fans, and put the cruelest reality in front of them-a small victory with one goal? What a sweet dream! With the current situation going on, it is very likely that Naples will reverse and win in the end!

How much this goal hit Sampdoria, just look at how much it improved the fighting spirit of the Naples players.

After the game restarted, Naples' offensive wave after wave.

It is still a tactic of taking off from two sides, similar to the first half, but the effect is much better than the first half.

The Sampdoria players were very flustered and made a lot of active mistakes. The Sampdoria fans watching were reminded to be in fear, for fear that their goal would be broken again in a short time.

When the morale of the players was low, the fans were frightened, and when Sampdoria was in turmoil, Gao Zheng used his personal skills to protect the football in the frontcourt, forcing Naples' defensive players to foul him.

"Because Le fouled Gao, Sampdoria got a free kick in a good position!"

From the start of Inle's foul, boos from the stands at the Marassi Stadium rang out overwhelmingly.

The Sampdoria fans couldn't care less about being frightened at this time. Their attention was all attracted by Yinle's foul on Gao Zheng, and they vented their negative emotions during this period of time to Yinle with boos and swear words.

Gao Zheng, who was violated, did not immediately get up from the ground to take a free kick. Instead, he sat on the ground and untied the laces of both shoes before re-tying them. After tying the laces, he took off the socks , relocated one side of the shin guard.

No matter how the Naples players protested, Gao Zheng acted slowly and meticulously from beginning to end.

After doing all this, he was pulled up from the ground by his teammates, and at this time players from both sides gathered here.

The Naples players naturally thought that Yinle did not foul on the one hand, and on the other hand they wanted to complain to the referee that Gao Zheng was delaying time.

The Sampdoria players naturally came up to help Gao Zheng. They argued with the Naples players and attracted the referee's attention so that he would not notice Gao Zheng's time-delaying behavior.

The experienced Bergomi laughed when he saw Gao Zheng's approach: "Gao Zheng is a smart player, he is not simply delaying time - when Naples' offensive is at its peak, he will make full use of the opponent's foul. Interrupting the game and slowing down the pace of the game can effectively dampen Naples' offensive enthusiasm, forcing Naples to stop and slow down. After the game restarts, the good feeling may not be found..."

Caresa nodded and said: "Obviously, he is using every available opportunity to interrupt the rhythm of Naples. It doesn't matter whether the next free kick is scored or not..."

Naples head coach Benitez also noticed Gao Zheng's true intentions, so he shouted loudly from the sidelines, asking the players not to argue with the referee and the Sampdoria players who were messing around, and hurried back to set up a human wall and Defensive line, don't continue to entangle with Sampdoria, that will be their way.

It is really strange to say that Sampdoria, which is obviously playing at home, was tied by Naples, but instead hoped to delay time. It stands to reason that they should be the most anxious, after all, they have led by two goals...

But now it is Naples who are anxious now, because their momentum is just right now. If they can seize the time, it is entirely possible to reverse and win the away game. Qualified for the final.

Benitez's instructions were quickly conveyed to the pitch.

The players in Naples retreated one after another. It was time to build a wall and a wall, and it was time to return to their positions.

Many Naples players looked at Gao Zheng, who was still taking his time, with fire in their eyes, but they didn't do anything unnecessary, because they needed to keep the game running smoothly. After Gao Zheng kicked this free kick, they will vent their anger in the attack, and let Sampdoria know that deliberately delaying time is useless to them.

In the end, I'm afraid that these Sampdoria players will regret Gao Zheng's behavior of deliberately delaying time, because there will not be much time left for them!
