After all the reserve teams in ABC's three groups ended, the teams participating in the playoffs were released.

The first place in Group A is Genoa reserve, the second place Juventus reserve, the third place Fiorentina reserve, the fourth place Turin reserve, and the fifth place Sampdoria reserve.

The five teams that qualified for the playoffs in Group B are Varese Reserve, Atlanta Reserve, AC Milan Reserve, Inter Milan Reserve and Chivo Reserve.

Only four teams in Group C have qualified for the playoffs, namely Roma Reserve, Lazio Reserve, Catania Reserve and Siena Reserve.

Third to fifth in Group A and Group B, and third and fourth in Group C, these eight teams will first decide the qualifying matches through draws. After two rounds of matchups, the two teams that will win will participate in the final finals.

This is the schedule of the Italian Reserve League in the 2010-2011 season. At present, Italy does not have a national reserve league, so it can only adopt the method of first division competition and then the playoffs. There is no way that the reserve team can participate in low-level leagues like Spain.

Before the training began, the reserve team players changed clothes, rested, adjusted their mentality, which was a bit disordered because of the rich nightlife last year, and sat down for the upcoming training. Before the training began every day, the room was like this, and nothing special.

Until assistant coach Casillaio pushed the door in with a piece of paper in his hand and stuck the paper on a white magnetic tactical board with a magnet.

“The playoff qualifying match result.”

After saying that, he turned around and left the locker room, leaving the time and space here for the players.

He went out, and someone came up to him.

"Who are we going to join in the fun?" Someone didn't go to join in the fun, just sat on the bench and asked his teammates loudly.

"Our opponent is..." The front was Alberto Masi, who was stuck before he finished speaking.

"What's wrong? Alberto, is that a hell?" goalkeeper Tozo joked, his words aroused the laughter of the others in the locker room.

"Get out of the way, let's see..." Kostic squeezed away Masi, then shouted loudly: "We are away against AC Milan!"

"Oh, you can go to the training base of wealthy families to see it!" Someone whistled.

But soon a strange atmosphere spread in the locker room - everyone turned their attention to Gao Zheng.

Gao Zheng raised his hands and said, "Look at what I do? I am not familiar with the AC Milan reserve team now. I don't know their staffing, tactical arrangements, etc...."

※※※

On the side of the training ground, sports manager Tosi stared at Gao Zheng, trying to see something different from him.

"Did you see something, Mr. Manager?" asked Bruni next to him.

Tosy frowned and stared for a while before shook his head and said, "Maybe I don't pay enough attention to Gao in normal times, and I don't see any difference with him in normal times..."

"That's right, he's doing very normal."

"He should know our opponent in the next game, right?" Tosey asked.

"Alfredo has put the matchup on the locker room."

"That's strange... Did he necessarily mind that matter?"

"How could it be that I don't care?"

"Why now..."

"This is exactly what he cares about, Mr. Manager." Bruno sighed.

Tosy looked at Bruney: "Can you finish everything at once? Don't make me act like an idiot."

When Bruni heard Tosi say this, he smiled slightly: "In this team, Gao is the one who wants to beat AC Milan the most. But for this reason, if you want to beat AC Milan, he must remain focused, whether it is training or competition. Are you just watching Gao, but not paying attention to the rest of our players who are more impetuous in training than usual, Mr. Manager?"

After hearing what Bruno said, Tosey turned to look at other players. After a while of careful observation, he saw at least three situations of proactive mistakes in training.

"this……"

"They have thought about the game seven days later, but Gao is only focused on the training in front of him. This is the difference between them. Mr. Manager, I don't want to pour cold water, but in fact, the gap between us and AC Milan is very big. If you don't focus on the training in front of you, don't expect us to pass the AC Milan level in the first round of the qualifying round."

After saying that, he took out his whistle, whistle and paused his training, and then walked onto the court with big strides.

Soon, Bruno's roar sounded on the training ground, which was really different from the calm he had just looked...

Amid this roar, Bruno turned his attention to Gao Zheng again.

Many players were scolded by Bruno and buried their heads. Only Gao Zheng, who was like a person who was fine, looked around leisurely, and there was no difference between him and he was usually...

After the training, they came out of the locker room and walked through the parking lot, Massi was still sad. Today, they were scolded by the head coach and were punished for training and exhausted - in the words of head coach Brunoy, they were not in the energy to think about things they shouldn't have thoughts.

"Don't think too much, Alberto, you have to concentrate when training. Look, I haven't been scolded by the coach." Gao Zheng also comforted him. "From your performance, I thought you were abandoned by AC Milan..."

"Yes, I can't figure it out. It's you who were abandoned, why can you be so calm?" Ma Xi glared at Gao Zheng.

As soon as Gao Zheng opened his mouth, he saw a familiar figure outside the gate.

He shouted in surprise: "Uncle Guo?!"

The middle-aged man standing with his back to the gate turned around and saw Gao Zheng, with a smile on his face: "Xiao Gao, have the training finished?"

"Yes." Gao Zheng pulled Maxi to introduce to Guo Wei, "This is Alberto Maxi, you have seen it before."

"Hello, I'm glad to have friends like you in the locker room." Guo Wei said in Italian, reaching out and shaking the other person.

"Hello." Maxi said goodbye to Li Gao Zheng tactfully, "I'll leave first."

Gao Zheng waved his hand: "Go, don't think too much, stay focused, Alberto, concentration is the most important thing."

"I can, the great devil." After saying that, Masi ran away. "I am willing to do anything for victory!"

"What did he call you just now?" Guo Wei was very surprised.

"Uh..." Gao Zheng briefly introduced the origin of this nickname.

After listening to it, Guo Wei laughed: "Don't say, this nickname is good! It seems that you get along well with your teammates, so I feel relieved."

Gao Zheng smiled and said, "Uncle Guo, what you said, where do I get along well with people? Look at me, I'm in Sassuolo, and I met one in one day?"

Gao Zheng took the initiative to mention Sassuolo, but Guo Wei was a little embarrassed. After all, this was a time that he didn't want to recall.

But Gao Zheng did not show any abnormality: "When it comes to Sassuolo, Uncle Guo, do you know that their reserve team and Sampdoria reserve team are still in the same group, but I didn't meet them. It's a pity that I can't talk about the past with that boy Berardi..."

It's a pity that you didn't beat them on the court, right?

Guo Wei thought to himself, and then said, "Let's go, get in the car, I'll treat you to dinner. Let's chat slowly at the dinner table."

PS, the French team won, which matched my prediction and won a small goal.

This is basically the case when the strong teams in this World Cup play against those teams that look weak.
