Chapter 411: Although win and lose

"In the first leg of an Italian Cup semi-final that ended yesterday, Sampdoria finally defeated Naples with a score of 3:2. Although the victory was achieved, this score was totally unhappy for Sampdoria. ..."
"3:2, if this is a single elimination system, Sampdoria fans should already be cheering for the victory. But now, everyone is worried... At the press conference after the game, Sampdoria coach Di Francis Ke admitted that the team was somewhat slack after leading two goals in the first half, plus a goal was lost just two minutes after the second half, and the rhythm was completely disrupted..."
"Although they were not able to win the game and were defeated by Gao Gai's reversal, the Naples players can leave Genoa with a smile. With two away goals in hand, they only need one goal in the second round. Pudolia will be able to advance to the final... We can even say that half of Naples has entered the final venue..."
In the news reports after the game, although it is said that Sampdoria is the winner, but from these reports, it is really difficult for you to feel this. It seemed that Naples had won the game.
Of course, this score seems to be indeed Napoli more dominant.
Sampdoria is also very clear on this side, so after Gao Zheng scored at that time, the morale of Sampdoria fought back and hoped to be able to score another goal. What does 3:2 mean? They know that 4:2 and The difference of 3:2 is also clear.
But Benitez quickly made adjustments accordingly, contracted the defense, and no longer pursued defeating Sampdoria on the road, but was able to hold the score.
They succeeded.
So there was such a weird scene after the game-the side who clearly won the game looked very depressed and unsatisfied. The side who lost the game left the stadium with a smile.
The day before the match between Sampdoria and Naples, Udinese beat Florence 2:1 at home. Everyone felt that Udinese must be eliminated.
Florence only scored an away goal. Now that Naples has scored two away goals, Sampdoria is even less optimistic...
After the game, the media such as the 19th Century newspaper who stood firmly on the side of Sampdoria also rarely criticized the team's performance. From the coach Di Francisco's on-site command to the players' mentality, it has become The object of being criticized.
As for the criticism on the Internet, there are more. The fans are emotional. When they are not happy, they only care about cursing people, regardless of whether they are justified.
Sampdoria did not play well in this game. Strictly speaking, they only played a good half, which is the first half.
Among the criticism, only Gao Zheng survived.
Because Gao Zheng's performance is nothing to criticize, he scored two goals for the team, if not for him, Sampdoria should lose the game at home...No, if not for him, Sampdoria There was no way to come to the semifinals of the Italian Cup.
After this game, most Chinese fans responded that "Sampdoria is not worthy of Gao Zheng", they think this should be Gao Zheng's last season in Sampdoria. Personal strength exceeds the overall strength too much. Although sometimes it can turn the tide, but more often it will be dragged down by the collective.
Next season, everyone hopes that Gao Zheng will be able to go to a giant team, and only then can he be worthy of his ability.
However, Gao Zheng did not mean to give up the team when he was interviewed. He also asked why the reporter thought Sampdoria was going to be eliminated: "Aren't we winning?"
"But the opponent has two away goals, and you only won one goal, they have the advantage of scoring away..."
Gao Zheng shook his head: "In my opinion, things are very simple. As long as we win the next round, won't it be over?"
The reporter who asked the question was speechless by Gao Zheng. Because it is true, as long as Sampdoria wins, there is no problem at all.
Other reporters asked, "How can it be so easy to win away?"
"There is no easy victory at all?" Gao Zheng asked rhetorically. "Does anyone dare to say that winning is easy? It is difficult to win on the road, is this not normal? Is there any fuss? Isn't it because we won't win on the road, so we won't pursue victory?"
The second reporter was choked by Gao Zheng's series of rhetorical questions...
The other reporters have nothing to ask, since the first round of the score is already like this, there is indeed only one way now, that is to beat Naples on the road no matter what, otherwise Sampdoria will have to bid farewell to the Italian Cup Too.
If you say goodbye to the Italian Cup two rounds ago, nobody cares. But now they have reached the semi-finals, and then eliminated, it makes people feel sad.

After playing the Italian Cup semi-finals with Naples, Sampdoria immediately ushered in the league with Cagliari on the weekend, this game Sampdoria has undergone a large rotation.
So in the end they lost to Cagliari 0:1 at home is not too surprising.
No one even cared about the game itself. As the league sandwiched between the two semifinals of the Italian Cup, it was destined to be a very tasteless game.
Sampdoria's backup players are not in the league.
These days, everyone is concerned about the future and destiny of the team in the Italian Cup.

Fans are urged to support the team on site, cheer for the team, and create noise and trouble for the visiting team.
The day before the game, the local media in Naples announced that the game tickets had been completely sold out.
Taking into account safety factors, the stadium does not sell all the seats, but only allows 50,000 seats.
Among them, the number of tickets for the visiting team Sampdoria is very small, less than a thousand people, and the rest are all for the home team.
The so-called home field advantage is actually that the home team can act conveniently in these places, and there are many ways to create trouble for the visiting team.
At that time, nearly 50,000 Naples fans will all flock to the stadium, and the momentum that can be set is bound to be very amazing. Sampdoria will play against the vibrant Naples in such an environment.
No wonder everyone is not optimistic about Sampdoria defeating Naples on the road. The St. Paul Stadium is hell. How can mortals defeat the devil in hell?
