Chapter 423 was interrupted
"After twenty-five minutes of the first half, Sampdoria had threatened Atletico Madrid's goal many times. It seems that Simeone's pre-match flattery did not paralyze Sampdoria, but instead aroused Sampdoria's vigilance. Their players were particularly focused and cautious... This is all because Simeone used too much force when praising Gao Zheng..." He Ping said and laughed.
At the pre-match press conference, Simeone inexplicably began to praise Gao Zheng, who was believed to be trying to praise Gao Zheng.
However, looking at the performance of Gao Zheng and other players in the game, everyone knows that Simeone must have failed, which is really a backlash.
If he didn't try his best to promote Gao Zheng before the game, the game might not have been played like this.
The TV broadcast gave Simeone a close-up shot, which seemed to mean that.
In the close-up, Simeone sat on the coach's seat, with her hands wrapped around her chest, and her hair was neatly combed behind her back, with a grim expression, as if she was worried about the fate of her team, but she also tried hard to pretend to be calm.
I'm afraid that at this moment, Simeone, who had been hit before the game, is not much different from the Joker's image in the eyes of many Gao Zheng and Sampdoria fans.
※※※
Just when Gao Zheng led Sampdoria to attack Atletico Madrid's defense line and Atletico Madrid's goal was in danger and was about to collapse, an unexpected accident occurred on the court.
Atletico Madrid passes the ball into Sampdoria's penalty area.
Captain Gastadro jumped up in defense to compete for the top, and he successfully pushed the ball out before Diego Costa.
But during the process of falling, Diego Costa bent down and carried him, and lost his balance when he landed. His shoulders hit the ground first, and his whole body was pressed on his shoulders and hit the ground heavily...
"Oh, my god!" Karesa shouted directly when she saw this scene. Although she didn't know the specific situation, just seeing this scene was enough to make him exclaim and have bad thoughts in his heart. As an experienced commentator, he knew very well what the result would be when this posture landed...
Sure enough, after landing, Gastadro covered his shoulders with his hands and lay on the ground without getting up.
Other Sampdoria players rushed up, some cared about the captain, and some angrily questioned Diego Costa, believing that his move was a deliberate injury.
Everyone plays football and knows what will happen if a person jumps up with all his strength.
Of course, it is because of losing balance, so I just planted a green onion.
This is a very dangerous action.
Diego Costa spread his hands and shrugged his innocentness. He didn't mean it. But the genius believed him. Everyone has heard of what Costa's style of playing football looks like. Maybe he was deliberately doing bad things.
At this time, Atletico Madrid players rushed up to protect their teammates, pulled Diego Costa out of the crowd, protected them so that Sampdoria players could easily get close to him.
Portuguese referee Pedro Pronza came up to call Diego Costa for a foul, but there was no verbal warning and not even a yellow card, which aroused the dissatisfaction of Sampdoria fans in the stands, and the booed suddenly shook the sky.
Amid booing, Sampdoria's team doctor and stretcher ran onto the field.
After a simple examination, Sampdoria's team doctor made a "substitution" gesture to Di Francesco on the sidelines.
"Gastadro can't hold on anymore. Judging from his expression, he was very injured..." He Ping was a little worried that the captain's injury would have a negative impact on Sampdoria.
He always feels that when Sampdoria is in good momentum, it is not a good sign that the main central defender is injured.
Di Francesco also felt that it was not a good sign. After seeing the gesture made by the team doctor, he turned around and said to his assistant coach: "Go and call Mustafi back!"
Then he cursed and protested to the fourth official: "How could Diego Costa's move be just a verbal warning? Why don't you give cards?! His dirty move made us lose a central defender!"
The fourth official was like a wooden man, with expressionless faces allowed him to vent his emotions. Anyway, if the head coach had done too much, he would notify the referee and write all of this into the post-match game report.
While Sampdoria was at a loss for Gastadro's injury, Diego Simone, who was originally sitting in the coach's seat, suddenly left the seat and stood up.
He sniffed as if he had smelled something.
※※※
Gastadro was finally carried off on a stretcher. He covered his face with one hand, and his injured shoulder could no longer move. He obviously knew how serious he was injured, which made him extremely frustrated.
Mustafi was ordered to replace Gastadro on the court and form a central defender partner with Alberto Masi.
The German defender transferred from Everton U21 to Sampdoria in January 2012, but after his transfer came, he did not have been able to play only one game in Sampdoria that season.
Because of Alberto Masi's return and outstanding performance last season, he is mainly a substitute on the team.
This season, due to Sampdoria's multi-line battle, the chances of playing have increased significantly and become a rotation player.
However, in such a game, no one can say what he can perform when he hastily appeared.
Moreover, Gastadro's injury interrupted Sampdoria's good momentum, as if while galloping all the way, a big pit suddenly broke the tires and had to stop and lean aside to change the tires.
Although you can continue to walk after changing the tires, the spare tire is only for emergency use and has speed limit requirements. You could have run to one hundred and twenty kilometers per hour, but if you change the spare tire, you can only run to one hour and eighty kilometers per hour.
If you can't speed up, your mentality is different from the past. If you are not interested, you may not want to run faster.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to substitution with Sampdoria, Diego Simeone called the team's captain Gabby to the sidelines to give the opportunity face-to-face.
When the game resumed, Atletico Madrid, which had been at a disadvantage, was pushed by Sampdoria, became more active. They put more pressure on Sampdoria, and the target was Mustafi, who had just been replaced.
What Simeone's intention is already obvious.
In this case, in order to ensure that the ball is not lost, Sampdoria had to start recycling and first forward the Atletico Madrid offensive.
As a result, the continuous offensive and positive momentum were interrupted.
"The situation has changed, Atletico Madrid is taking the initiative bit by bit. And all this is because of Gastadro's injury... Sampdoria failed to score another goal before this, which is really a pity!" Carresa felt sorry for Sampdoria. If Sampdoria could lead two goals, then they would not be so nervous now, the players' mentality and performance would be different.
"This is the football game, full of surprises. But Costa's playing football is indeed a bit dirty..." Bergomi was very dissatisfied with Costa's foul and thought the referee was too light.
Sampdoria fans obviously think so, so every time Diego Costa gets the ball, a harsh booing sound will be heard in the stands, impacting everyone's eardrums and heart.
Diego Costa seemed to not care about this booing at all, and he even threatened Sampdoria's goal.
Chapter completed!
