Chapter 428: After the Champions League

"...Sampdoria, played by Chinese player Gao Zheng, was tied by Atletico Madrid at 1:1 at home at the UEFA Champions League final in the early morning of Beijing time. Although Gao Zheng was in the game A goal was scored, but the team failed to win at home, which made Sampdoria's Champions League promotion road cast a shadow..."
"... Gao Zheng performed well in the Champions League game early this morning, scoring a goal, and was almost a lore in Atletico Madrid. After the game, Gao Zheng was the player with the highest score in the audience... Atletico Madrid coach Simoni said at the post-match press conference that he returned to the locker room and kissed Kurtua hard because he saved a shot from Gao Zheng..."
"Italian media praised Gao Zheng's performance. Those media who spoke a lot about Gao Zheng last season, all praised Gao Zheng this time. The Roman Gazette even believed that not only Sampdoria was not enough for Gao Zheng's strength. By the way, the entire Serie A is a bit behind for Gao Zheng... To be honest, when I heard this comment, I almost thought it was a paragraph edited by those good deeds on the Internet. As a result, I went to the Roman Sports News On the official website, the most striking position on the homepage is the title of the report:'Serie A can't stand high!'...I thought that only China is rich in all kinds of high-profile blows. Without discipline and bottom line..."
...
In the Chinese newspapers and kiosks and convenience stores, the previous person just sold the last sports weekly in the store. The boss is enthusiastically recommending several other morning newspapers to the latter, because there are also a lot of information about the early morning Champions League game. Report content.
White-collar workers carrying briefcases and programmers carrying backpacks are waiting at the bus station. They are very different whether they are dressed or temperament, but they all have a mobile phone to browse the UEFA Champions League news.
There are a lot of sleepy office workers in the subway, but when the multimedia TV in the car starts to play the highlights of the Champions League Sampdoria against Atletico Madrid this morning, these people who seem to have fallen asleep They all looked up and stared at the screen.
On the campus, those children who like football are discussing heatedly how good Gao Zheng's last wave of the world should be, and they are arguing about whether Gao Zheng should stay in Sampdoria.
This was originally an ordinary working day morning in China, but it became special because of the Champions League match in the early morning.
Everyone is paying attention to Gao Zheng's situation.
On the Internet, under the Internet, Gao Zheng dominated this morning, and it seemed that the originally boring and difficult way to work also became interesting.
Due to the time difference, Italy only entered the daytime later, the media became active, and all kinds of news came.
There were two Champions League quarter-finals last night, but the only thing the Italian media are most concerned about is the match between Sampdoria and Atletico Madrid.
They are more concerned about the impact of this game's failure to win the next Champions League journey.
Some people have criticized Sampdoria, they are not criticizing the team, but mainly the coach Di Francisco. It was believed that in January, the team focused too much on the Italian Cup, which resulted in intensive events and the players did not have a good rest. This was when two players were injured in a game.
Now Sampdoria has failed to win Atletico Madrid at home. I am afraid to go to the away round in the second round.
It can even be asserted that Sampdoria's Champions League tour this season is coming to an end.
Although Di Francisco said at the post-match press conference yesterday that the team will not admit defeat in advance, many people feel that it is time to turn their attention back to domestic events.
In fact, with the strength of Sampdoria, they can all the way to the top 16 of the Champions League, which is already very good. When overlords like Juventus are not upset, Sampdoria cannot be blamed too much.
The Spanish media have more stringent requirements for Atletico Madrid.
They think that Simone's team failed to win Sampdoria on the road. Even if they failed, they are not worried that Atletico Madrid will not be able to advance to the quarterfinals, but feel that such promotion is really shameful for Atletico Madrid.
In terms of the difference in strength between the two teams, Atletico Madrid should play Sampdoria at home and away.
Famous experts are not satisfied with the strategy adopted by Simone in the first half of the venue. Some criticized Simone for being scared, and some people exaggerated that if Atlético Madrid continues to play like this, even if they can advance to the quarterfinals It is definitely difficult to move on, and not only the Champions League, but its performance will decline in all the following games. Because of Simoni’s timid performance, his authority among players has collapsed, and this team is close to falling apart... …
These words are particularly exaggerated and sound terrifying, but it makes people wonder whether Sampdoria has a high chance of advancing to the quarterfinals, or Atletico Madrid...
※※※
After playing the UEFA Champions League match with Atletico Madrid, Sampdoria still has the league and Italian Cup finals to play.
Overall, the schedule is relatively dense.
Next, Sampdoria will face AC Milan at home, and then on March 1st, Sampdoria will go north to challenge Turin in the league. After playing this game, he will have to go to Rome to participate in the final of the Italian Cup.
The date of the final of the Italian Cup is March 5, with only three days left between the two matches.
This game was played again on March 9th.
After the league finished, mid-week, Sampdoria had to go away to challenge Atletico Madrid.
Before the second round of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals, Sampdoria had to play three consecutive games. Two consecutive weeks were a week of double matches, which had very high demands on the team's physical fitness.
How to reasonably arrange the rotation of the lineup is also a test for Di Francisco.
Before the game with AC Milan this weekend, everyone thought that Di Francisco should not rotate the lineup, because what the game with AC Milan means, everyone is very clear.
Even AC Milan thinks so, but when Sampdoria announced the starting lineup before the game, they found that Di Francisco had made a rotation of the lineup, and it was not the kind of one or two positions. Fine-tuning...
Sampdoria's starting lineup surprised AC Milan.
I was surprised that Sampdoria would rotate this time. You know that the last time the two sides confronted this season, although it was the UEFA Champions League group stage, Sampdoria still played the main game.
The joy of nature is that AC Milan can finally avenge Gao Zheng.
But the final result was not the same as AC Milan expected.
With Gao Zheng's goal in the 78th minute, Sampdoria scored a 1:1 draw with AC Milan at home.
They still failed to defeat Sampdoria, failed to defeat Gao Zheng, and also allowed Gao Zheng to score again.
This goal is Gao Zheng's fifteenth league goal of the season.
In an interview after the game, Gao Zheng once again stated that the match with AC Milan was an ordinary game, and the rotation of Sampdoria in this game also seemed to prove his statement, so let everyone not be too Intentionally concerned.
However, the reporters always think that Gao Zheng just said that because he now probably doesn't take AC Milan in his eyes...
Of course, AC Milan's current results and performance are indeed lacking in persuasion. At the beginning of this year, Allegri was dismissed from the AC Milan club because of the poor performance of his team. The Dutchman Seedorf, who had played for AC Milan for many years, was invited. However, after Seedorf took over the team, AC Milan's situation has not improved, and the performance is still volatile.
Twenty-five rounds of the league, AC Milan scored 33 points, ranked tenth, and Sampdoria ranked two places higher than AC Milan, their competitors are indeed not AC Milan.
The fact that the former giants fell to such a level has indeed made many people sigh.
And among those who are sighing, some people can’t help but think of it-if they didn’t give up Gao Zheng, if Gao Zheng can stay in AC Milan, will they still be so embarrassed?
But after all, it was just a few people's guess.
With the tension between Gao Zheng and AC Milan, everyone knows that this kind of "if" is never possible.
Even if Gao Zheng wants to leave Sampdoria, AC Milan may not be the target he will consider...
