Domenic Berardi was sitting in the player's box, a little unhappy.

After joining Sampdoria, he only played once in the Champions League qualifiers, but not even once in the league.

As a result, during the team's two consecutive losses, he could only watch the wall like today and could not contribute his strength.

Now, he can only be a spectator in this most important "beacon derby".

How much he wants to fight side by side with Gao Zheng to help the team win...

He frowned and sighed softly.

A voice sounded next to him: "What's wrong, are you worried that we can't win?"

Berardi turned his head and saw a middle-aged man. He recognized this person, Gao Zheng's agent.

"Mr. Viviano, I'm not...I'm feeling sorry for not being able to play."

Andre Viviano sat down beside Berardi: "Don't mind?"

Berardi shook his head quickly: "No, I don't mind at all."

Viviano, who sat down, looked at Berardi carefully and said, "It seems that it is really hard to connect you with Berardi who often plays cards on the field..."

Berardi scratched his head embarrassedly: "I don't know why, but it's hard for me to control my emotions when I go on stage. I always want to do my best..."

Viviano shrugged: "I'm not criticizing you, Domenic. Actually, I can't give you any valuable advice about things like you."

The two were chatting in the private room, and the sounds suddenly increased.

Live broadcast began to broadcast the list of players on both sides.

Although he lost two games in a row, Sampdoria fans still gave each Sampdoria player who played very much enthusiasm and respect.

"It's about to start!" In the bar in Genoa, the Chinese students' observation group were excited and began to enter the state.

In domestic bars and in front of the TV at home, I don’t know how many people were excited by the cheers at the scene.

Feng Shiyao sat in the performance area of ​​the bar, looked up at the TV hanging on the ceiling in front, and was slightly stunning.

That direction was completely opposite to his own stage. Most of the drinkers sitting below turned their backs to themselves, looking up at the TV.

The match between Sampdoria and Genoa is being broadcast live there. Although the game has not yet begun, everyone's attention has been attracted by the TV screen.

Feng Shiyao remembered that when he came to the bar today, he saw a new advertising board at the gate outside, which read in a conspicuous way: "Tonight's 'Lighthouse Derby' focus battle, the excitement is not to be missed. The wines in this bar are all 20% off. Come on, cheer for Gao Zheng!"

Yes, these people are originally coming for Gao Zheng...

Thinking of this, Feng Shiyao walked off the stage and said to the bar manager: "Do I still need to sing this situation?"

The manager shook his head: "Forget it, I'll let you go for nothing. Today's alcohol consumption will be free. Just look for the bar if you want to drink."

"Okay, thank you manager."

Feng Shiyao went to order a glass of beer, found a corner where no one was sitting down, and sipped lightly and waited for the competition to begin like everyone else.

Although she didn't have money to get the performance, Feng Shiyao is now happy and leisurely, so she can cheer for Gao Zheng.

Soon, when the players of both sides walked out of the passage, the commentator Liu Hong on the TV shouted excitedly: "Gao Zheng has appeared!"

The customers at the bar were also excited. They clapped their hands, cheered loudly, and cheered Gao Zheng.

The bar manager looked at the almost full hall and couldn't even close his mouth.

In fact, before the players on both sides appeared, the fight between the fans of the two teams had already begun. At the beginning, they naturally used tifo to demonstrate to each other.

Sampdoria also quit the tifo they had when they played against Juventus at home last year and told everyone that Gao Zheng is the mountain, and the mountain is here.

The tifo displayed by Genoa fans is a mountaineer. He wore a red and dark blue mountaineering suit that symbolizes Genoa's jersey and stepped on the mountains.

This meaning is self-evident.

Gao Zheng became the target of showing off or attacking both sides. The two teams simply attributed their grudges to Gao Zheng, which is not wrong...

Gao Zheng is indeed the focus of this game.

During the pre-match ceremony where the players of the two teams shook hands with each other, Perin, who represented Genoa in this game, stared at Gao Zheng deeply and said, "We're meeting again, Gao."

"ah……"

Gao Zheng didn't know how to answer Palin.

Palin didn't care about Gao Zheng's attitude. After shook hands with Gao Zheng, he walked over and took a deep breath.

This is the taste of the Lighthouse Derby.

Although he has been famous for a long time, this is his first first team "beacon derby", the real "beacon derby".

He was loaned to Pescara last season and conceded more than 60 goals in one season, but he was also the number one on the save list in the entire league. He made the most saves. He saved fifteen times in the game against Fiorentina alone, setting a record of one-game saves in the five major leagues.

So many saves mean that Palin always has to face the opponent's shots directly, so losing so many goals is not Palin's own problem, but I'm afraid it's more of Pescara's defensive problem.

After returning to Genoa after loan, Frey had already transferred to Genoa, the No. 1 jersey he left is now worn by Palin. This talented goalkeeper who has been expected by Genoa fans since his youth team age, naturally became Genoa's current main goalkeeper.

Although he conceded many goals in Pescara last season, Genoa still chose to believe him.

Darling, from the first two league rounds, his performance is hard to say, and he conceded seven goals in two league rounds...

But this did not prevent his confidence in this game.

He was in Pesca last season and was unable to participate in Genoa's "Beacon Derby" and could only watch the game through live TV. This is his biggest regret.

It was also facing Gao Zheng, facing Gao Zheng when he was in Pescara was obviously completely different from saving his goal in the "Lighthouse Derby".

He tightened his gloves.

The game began soon, and Sampdoria, who played at home, took the lead in launching a fierce offensive against Genoa's goal.

Both teams lost two consecutive games. To be honest, they both needed this "Beacon Derby" victory to boost confidence and reverse the decline.

Faced with Sampdoria's fierce attack, Genoa naturally contracted his defense at the beginning, hoping to support Sampdoria's offensive during this period.

It is also a normal tactical idea. After all, it is away games and it is impossible to directly attack the opponent. At the beginning of the game, the home team must be at its peak.

Although Italians have never heard of the Chinese allusion that "one-stop work will lead to decline and three-in-one", they also understand this same truth.

As long as they can curb Sampdoria's offensive at the beginning stage and make their offensive frustrated, their momentum will naturally be closed. At that time, Genoa's defensive pressure will not be that great, and they can also wait for an opportunity to counterattack.

This is the tactic designed by Genoa's new head coach Fabio Liverani this season for the team. Although it is a "beacon derby", he does not want to fall into the rhythm of the derby and plans to fight Sampdoria's war of attrition.

In his understanding, this is Sampdoria's home court after all, and Sampdoria is actually even more unbearable than Genoa.

In a sense, Coach Levilani's idea is OK, and Sampdoria is indeed even more unbearable, so their offensive is also very fierce.
