Gao Zheng was replaced in the 80th minute, of course, so that Gao Zheng could all rest. However, this substitution was also interpreted as Gao Zheng was disdainful of fighting with the pursuers at all. He could easily use a hat trick to open the gap. What should he do in the last ten minutes of garbage time?

He gave up a penalty kick. What's the point of giving up ten minutes of the game?

When the game ended, all Sampdoria fans at home stood up and applauded, using this method to express their respect and gratitude to Gao Zheng.

Gao Zheng waved his arms all the way and walked slowly down the stage, enjoying enough everyone's cheers.

During this process, no Inter Milan player complained to the referee that Gao Zheng delayed the time because Sampdoria was three goals ahead and did not need to delay the time to win the game.

The final result of the game was that Sampdoria defeated Inter Milan 4-1 at home.

Inter Milan's defeat led to their points being overtaken by Parma, falling from fifth to sixth in the league.

If this ranking remains until the end of the league, Inter Milan will lose the qualification to participate in the Europa League next season and continue to miss any European competition.

This is definitely not good news for Inter Milan...

After this 1:4 defeat, Milan replaced Mazari and might be dismissed after the end of the season. You should know that Inter Milan and Mazari signed a two-year contract.

Of course, what the media are most concerned about is not whether Mazari can continue to coach Inter Milan next season, nor is it Inter Milan's final fate this season, but the battle for the Golden Boot.

After this game, Gao Zheng was surrounded by reporters in the mixed area. Although Gao Zheng completed a hat trick, everyone was still very concerned about another question, that is, why did he give up the penalty penalty during the game.

"Give it out?" Gao Zheng looked puzzled. "I was not the penalty kicker, so what should I give? The penalty kick should be punished. If the captain is not on the court, there are other people who will take the penalty kick. Our team has some order of ball kicking, and I am ranked fifth. Unless the top four people are not on the court, it is my turn to play this penalty."

Gao Zheng opened his palms.

A group of reporters looked at each other, but they didn't expect to get such an answer.

Although everyone has not heard of Gao Zheng’s penalty kicker who is not the first pick before, if you think about it carefully, Gao Zheng has never taken the penalty kick in Sampdoria, you should know that what he said is true.

But now is the time to compete for the Golden Boot, and everyone's competition has reached a fierce stage. In order to ensure that they can get the Golden Boot, shouldn't they take all the chances of scoring on themselves? Not to mention penalty kicks, even if their shot hits their teammates and bounces into the goal, they have to try their best to count them under their name.

At this time, I say that I am not the penalty kicker, so I don’t play the penalty kick... Is this how the rules are used?!

So a reporter reminded Gao Zheng: "But now the competition for the best scorer has entered a white-hot stage..."

Gao Zheng looked at him: "Oh, you said this. I don't think it's a big deal. I don't need to rely on robbing my teammate's penalty kick to win the best scorer. Even if I don't score this penalty kick, I will still be the Golden Boot."

He said it calmly, but the reporters couldn't.

Soon, the remarks about Gao Zheng appeared on the Internet and on TV programs, and the next day the newspaper followed.

"Gao: I don't need a penalty kick, I will be a golden boot!"

"Gao once again showed his confident and arrogant side in front of the media, but this time he was full of arrogance because he had just completed a hat-trick in the game, and none of the three goals of this hat-trick were penalty kicks..."

"... Gao said rightly, he has scored twenty-four league goals so far, and none of these twenty-four goals is a penalty kick, and other competitors will more or less have some of the goals in it. Of course, the penalty kick is also considered a goal, but if we have to look at the value of the value, it is obvious that the number of goals without penalty kicks is higher..."

"After a senior, he almost offended all the players on the scorer list. Who hasn't had a penalty kick these days? But it's just that there is no one. And without a penalty kick, he can still be the top player in the scorer list..."

"...The 33rd round of the league was over. Immobile scored a goal in the game, which increased his goal to the 19th. This number is quite good, but it is not enough in front of Gao Zheng. The difference between the two sides is as many as five goals... Higuain also scored a hat trick in the game, but because he didn't score enough before, plus these three goals, his league goal became seventeen goals, which was farther from Gao Zheng... The situation before was a group of masters formed a siege against Gao Zheng, but after this game, I think Gao Zheng had already killed from the encirclement. What kind of wheel battle, what kind of holy alliance... In the face of such strong performance of Gao Zheng, it became a joke!"

This last one is clearly an article from the Chinese media. This is indeed the case. This article was written by Lu Bing.

When he wrote this article, he was like he was drunk. He was very excited and in good condition, almost done in one go. Gao Zheng's performance made him vent his anger. The media hyped up the Golden Boots dispute, and insisted on hyping up a suspense drama that was originally unsurprising. Sometimes it was Inmobile, sometimes it was Tevez's, and later it was brought out Icardi, who was the one who was most disliked by Gao Zheng fans, and he was really meant to disgust Gao Zheng.

Under such circumstances, Gao Zheng used an impeccable hat trick to slap everyone in the face so lightly, which really made Lu Bing watch it all the time.

After the game, many Chinese fans felt sorry for Gao Zheng not to give a penalty. Their reason was that if Gao Zheng gave this penalty, wouldn’t it have changed from a hat trick to a senior high school happy in this game? The number of goals in the league has also changed from twenty-four to twenty-five. Who wouldn’t like to score more goals?

But in Lu Bing's opinion, Gao Zheng's penalty kick is very good. First of all, as Gao Zheng said, not paying a penalty kick will not affect the final result of the Golden Boot competition. He will definitely be the best scorer. Lu Bing agreed with both hands and feet. On the other hand, in Lu Bing's opinion, Gao Zheng's penalty kick blocked the mouths of all those who tried to pick bones in the eggs, so as not to be sour, Gao Zheng's best scorer is not worthy of gold. Although these people never use this set of standards on others, in the end, Gao Zheng can still stand on the commanding heights and beating others. As he said in an interview after the game, it is so frustrating that those who just give him a mouth when he has nothing to do.

Thinking about it now, Lu Bing is still very happy.

In the 34th round of the league, Sampdoria challenged Catania away.

With five rounds left in the league, Catania, who has accumulated 20, still has hope of relegation. Bologna, ranked 17th, has accumulated 28 points, Chivo, ranked 16th, has accumulated 30 points, and Cagliari, ranked 15th, has accumulated 33 points.

Theoretically, Catania only needs to maintain a complete victory to have a chance to catch up with one of these three teams and qualify for relegation.

In order to survive, they have to fight desperately in every game.

In addition, the advantage of Catania in this game is that everyone is not optimistic about Sampdoria's results in this game.

For Sampdoria's supporters, the team's performance is not important. Anyway, there is no worries about relegation now, and there is a 20-minute gap from the Champions League, so I will definitely not be able to get a UEFA Champions League place next season. Sampdoria also won the Italian Cup and its qualification for the UEFA Cup has been locked. So Sampdoria can be said to have no pursuit in team performance.

Instead, everyone is more concerned about whether Gao Zheng can get the Golden Boots.

If Sampdoria loses to Cartnia in this game, no one will think it is a big deal. But if Gao Zheng doesn't score, many Sampdoria fans will probably not be in a good mood for a week...

In the game, Catania scored the first goal.

They scored the goal at the end of the first half and entered the break with a goal leading score.

However, the situation suddenly changed in the second half. Gao Zheng scored two goals in two minutes, scoring twice, helping Sampdoria to reverse and overtake.

In the end, Sampdoria defeated the relegation team Catania 2:1 away.

Everyone knows that it is difficult for relegation teams to play at home, but with Gao Zheng, it seems that it is not that difficult.

I thought it was a failure, but it turned out to be a victory.

And more importantly, Gao Zheng scored twice in the game, which increased his individual goals to twenty-six goals!

Although his main competitor Icardi played the whole game with Parma and performed very positively, he did not score. Inter Milan defeated Parma 2-0 and left the points gap with sixth place Parma, making them more and more hopes of qualifying for the UEFA Cup, but Icardi may not be happy.

In other games, Torino shook hands with Lazio 3:3 away, Immobile scored a goal, and the league goals also reached twenty.

Lucatoni also scored one goal, and the number of goals turned into eighteen.

But the gap between them and Gao Zheng did not shorten, but was wider and wider.

With four rounds left in the league, Gao Zheng led Icardi by five goals, six goals ahead of Immobile, eight goals ahead of Tevez and Lucatoni and nine goals ahead of Higuain.

To pull Gao Zheng off the first place in the scorer list, Icardi must have a goal rate of more than one goal per game, so he has a slight chance because when he scored, he could not guarantee that Gao Zheng would not score a goal in the next four rounds of the league. With Gao Zheng's current state, this is too difficult.
