Chapter Thirty-Nine
The old Italian team, this year's newly promoted Genoa, had just celebrated their first appearance in Serie A in 12 years at their home stadium, Marassi Stadium, when they suffered a blow.
It is said to be old because Genoa is the oldest club in Italy. The team has been established for more than a hundred years. It came into being in 1893 after a few British sailors brought football to this port city. Genoa City is also called the Lighthouse City.
The lighthouse derby between Genoa and Sampdoria ranks among the four major derbies in Italy, along with Milan, Rome and Turin.
The most famous person in the city of Genoa is of course the famous navigator Columbus, and this is his hometown. Genoa fans believe that the greatest player in their history is the meritorious captain Gianluca Siniolini who died young. The club
The No. 6 jersey was sealed for him. But in fact, the most landmark and symbolic player in Genoa's history should be the Japanese who only played here for one season. His name is Miura Tomohiro.
There is no doubt that Miura Zhiyang is a legend of East Asian football. It is said that when the famous Japanese cartoonist Takahashi Yoichi created "Captain Tsubasa", the prototype of the protagonist Tsubasa Ozora came from Miura. This cartoon changed the course of Japanese football, and then
Changed the entire football landscape in Asia.
Regardless of regional prejudice, Miura is much better than those Chinese national players who are the same age or even younger than him. Miura, who is 40 years old this year, is still playing as a forward in the Japanese J2 League and is still scoring goals.
, his goal is to break the 53-year-old Guinness record for the oldest person in a professional league set by Carmorra of the Uruguay Second Division.
Perhaps today's Genoa fans no longer remember the mediocre Asian striker who only scored one goal in 21 appearances in the 1994-95 season. They were relegated after that season and have not returned to Serie A until today. They only
Wanted to celebrate the first Serie A match in 12 years.
In fact, in the 2004-05 season three years ago, Genoa topped the list after defeating Venice 3:2 in the final round of the Second Division. They should have returned to the First Division with great vigor at that time, but after the game, the Football Association
A whistleblower investigation revealed that Genoa gave its opponent 250,000 euros before the game in order to ensure a safe match.
As a result, Class A came to nothing, and Class C opened its doors to welcome.
The opening whistle blew, and before the excitement of the Genoa fans had passed, Zhuoyang swung away Milanetto at the front of the penalty area and shot low before defender Lucarelli Jr., the football smelled of whistles and rubber paste.
It ran into the goal, and Brazilian goalkeeper Rubinho didn't understand what happened.
In the first 48 seconds, Zhuo Yang scored the first goal of the 2006-07 Serie A season for AC Milan. He also scored the first goal of last season.
The 30-year-old Lucarelli looked at Zhuo Yang running wildly, and he felt a little aggrieved because his brother's call yesterday to give him advice didn't seem to work.
Little Lucarelli is also called A. Lucarelli, and his elder brother is the famous 'Red Striker' C. Lucarelli. C. Lu is a staunch anti-Japanese fighter and a senior member of the Italian Communist Party. Of course, he joined the party
At that time, the Communist Party of Italy, the largest political organization in Western Europe, had actually disintegrated, but this did not hinder his belief. The person whom Lu admired most was Mao Zedong.
In the 2004-05 season, Comrade Luo beat Gita and Toni with 24 goals and became the top scorer in Serie A. China's "Sports Weekly" dedicated an entire page to reporting on him. In the large photo on the front page, Lu was wearing a green hat.
, there are bright red stars on his hat. He wears the badge of Mao Zedong on his chest, holds a red book in his hand, and has a bright sickle and ax on the stone wall behind him.
The title of the exclusive interview is: Red Star Shines on Me to Fight!
This season, the 32-year-old C Lu went to Shakhtar Donetsk in Ukraine, and he is still on the list of important call-ups for the Italian national team. C Lu’s name is also Cristiano..., and he made a special call from Ukraine yesterday
Give your brother Alessandro Lucarelli some tips on how to defend Zhuoyang.
"Remember, after Zhuoyang gets the ball, don't pounce too hard, otherwise it will be easy for him to pass. Zhuoyang's preparations before shooting are very strong, and you have time to get into position and pace. Don't be afraid of him shooting.
Adjustment before shooting is his only weakness. Calm and decisive, Zhuoyang is not a problem."
A Lu believes in his brother very much, because his brother is an excellent forward in his own right and is also the best football player among the top players in the world. His guidance is reliable.
However, A Lu just discovered that Zhuoyang made no adjustments at all and made no preparations. He shot suddenly. Not to mention decisively, he had already scored before he could calm down.
Brother, what are you talking about? Zhuoyang's shot is not meaty at all, it is much faster than you, so fast that it is unreasonable.
Last season, Zhuo Yang's shooting opportunity was destroyed by A Lu's smart defense, but now, A Lu is just a cloud. The reason is naturally the rhythm-breaking shooting method that Zhuo Yang has understood. Such progress
The ball is slightly lacking in aesthetics, but it is very effective against Italian defenders.
"Although it doesn't look that cool, you should score more goals this year than last year. How about you do it yourself this year?" Kaka said.
Kaka knew about Zhuo Yang's change and did not hide it from him. Kaka wanted Zhuo Yang to be the top scorer this season. He stopped playing because he was too tired.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Let's just wait and see, as we did last season. After the winter break, whoever has more hope will go."
If other people heard these two conversations between them, they would be very strange, because Zhuoyang and Kaka said implicitly: Anyway, the top scorer this year is either yours or mine, and whoever is lucky will get it.
From their point of view, there is no dispute that others should not even think about it.
There are many formations in football tactics. Most coaches have a few sets of playing styles that they are best at, but there are also some who only play one set from birth to death, such as the 4-4-2 of former Chinese national team coach Horton, such as
Genoa's coach Gasperini today didn't even look at anything other than 3-4-3.
The 50-year-old Gasperini has been in low-level coaching circles before. After taking over Genoa last season, his long-fisted and short-playing 3-4-3 finally made him enter the first-level competition. Don't look at only the second-level
The third place was promoted, but the champion Juventus did not take any advantage in front of him with one draw and one loss.
But now AC Milan has the most unique magic wings in Serie A, the wandering Zhuo Yang and assist experts Yancu and Odo. There are no such crazy wings in the entire Apennines. In fact, the main purpose of the Gaos 3-4-3 is to play
On the other hand, Italian football is basically not good at this, so Gasperini looks like he is very powerful.
Wing versus wing, it all depends on who is the winger. As a result, starting from the first minute, the three of them turned Genoa's two full-backs Milanetto and Paro into lame full-backs, with their heads raised.
Can't get up.
As a result, Genoa's formation changed directly to 5-1-1-3, and the ambitious offensive trident in the frontcourt became a dung fork. The 31-year-old Marco Divayo said heartily: You don't listen.
