The Football Journey After Soul Shifting

Chapter 93 The Rise of Naples

0-2, a big mountain appeared in front of Juventus...

"Goooooooal!!! Mariano Arini's brilliant grab! In just a few seconds, this talented striker lifts up Lady Luck's dress and turns an impossible chance into a goal!!"

……

Compared with Biscardi, who reacted quickly, the TV photographer obviously forgot that this is the best time to capture the camera. By the time he reacted, the ball had already crossed Buffon's fingers with a strange arc. Guan, bouncing into the net nest, lying quietly on the green turf.

Fantastic goal.I can completely understand the stunned expression of Juventus coach Marcello Lippi!

……

The Juventus fans in the stands took the "umbrella" posture in unison. I don't know if they are mocking Liu Wen or Naples?

"Is this guy still human?"

Tachinati, who was sitting on the Juventus bench, opened his mouth wide. In the Juventus team, I am afraid that only captain Del Piero's skills and aura can match him. No, I am afraid that Del Piero was at his peak. Not as strong as him.

And Scoglio waved his fist excitedly, and now he wants to kiss Liu Wen hard.If Naples has the advantage of two goals at home, it is not an impossible task to beat Juventus in Turin.

Scoglio's excited expression infected everyone on the bench, they embraced each other from surprise to ecstasy.Congratulations on this beautiful goal.

……

In the end, the reporter turned the camera on Diego Maradona, who was on the Naples bench.His expression is also very interesting. ,

"It's so fucking powerful!" Diego Maradona muttered.

***************

In the last few minutes, both sides had chances.

Only 1 minute away from Liu Wen's goal.Nedved passed the ball into the penalty area, and Liu Wen easily pushed the ball out in the fight with Del Piero. Nedved, who followed him, got the ball, accelerated, and easily knocked Kompany , Divide the ball to the bottom line on the left.

Davis quickly cut in and passed the ball directly to the middle near the baseline.

The football was passed into the penalty area almost against the turf. Sabul, who was in the front point, missed the ball, and Apia, who followed up in the middle, shot angrily.The ball hit Jorgentati's body and bounced back.Zamboni tried to clear the siege with a big foot, but unexpectedly missed the kick.

Del Piero shot an angry shot before Kompany, but the ball hit Jorgentati's arms again with Juventus' anger and flew into the air.

At this time, Jorgen Tati was as brave as the legendary Hercules.

Witnessing Jorgentatti's heroic save, the St. Paul Stadium was silent.

……

"Such balls are saved?!"

Marcello Lippi sat back on his seat helplessly. With 3 minutes left in the game, Juventus was already defeated, and no matter how hard he tried now, it would not help.

Although Nedved, Davis, Del Piero did not give up.In the rest of the game, they led Juventus to launch a wave of offensive frenzy, but it is a pity that the latter has not yet caught the skirt of the goddess of luck. After 3 minutes, the referee blew the whistle to end the game.Defending champion Juventus lost 0:2 away to Serie B leaders Naples, breaking the biggest upset in the quarter-finals of the Coppa Italia.

Liu Wen and his teammates ran to the "Naples Moon Stand" and waved to the fans of the team. The applause fell from the Naples moon like a heavy rain.The old woman in a black and white arrow-striped shirt fought for 10 minutes on the battlefield in St. Paul before being beheaded.

Able to defeat the defending champion Juventus in Naples' most abject stage.Naples people have reason to be proud of their team.

The biggest contributor to Naples' victory in this game is undoubtedly Liu Wen, who scored two goals.And he's like a real king too.Surrounded by fans and teammates, singing in unison for him.Raise your arms and cheer.

Needless to say the first free kick, the second kick was a wonderful display of aura and talent. At that time, all Juventus defenders were in the penalty area, and they pressed Liu Wen closely. Generally speaking, this is a The cross is not too threatening, and there is no angle or gap for a frontal shot, but Liu Wen is Liu Wen after all, he is different from Del Piero, and he is also different from Maradona.His unique inspiration and imagination created such a goal full of fantasy and advanced consciousness

"What a great guy!" Diego Maradona muttered to himself looking at Liu Wen's back.

****************

On the passage to the press conference, the excited Flores patted Liu Wen on the shoulder and began to imitate the sports TV station.

"Mariano, how did you kick the second ball just now? What were your thoughts at that time?"

Liu Wen thought for a while and said: "At that time you passed the ball in, but the pass was very poor, I had to imagine where the pass would go - then I found the landing point, it was just a matter of a moment. I wanted to hit the goal directly with my foot, but at this time the ball bounced too high and too close to the body. To make matters worse, there were four or five people in front of me in the penalty area. I could only choose to use my heel to pad Take a look, find a way to get the ball into the goal. Luckily I did it, Buffon made the wrong move. So I was lucky to score a goal."

"...What, you said my pass was poor?" Flores seemed to be hit, lowered his head and muttered to himself, "No, you can't say that later, you have to tell the reporter, this is our The usual cooperation..."

"..."

At the press conference, Naples Vice President Mr. Nardi Sr. was very excited about Naples' victory in this game and said

The course of the game is a 'beautiful story', "Mariano has brought the team one victory after another. We have only lost one game in which Mariano scored. With Mariano The team is not afraid of any strong team, even Juventus and AC Milan."

……

Strictly speaking.This is not a 'beautiful story' but a 'repeat of history'.

Because this is not the first time, it was a long time ago.In fact, Juventus also had quite unpleasant memories at the San Paolo Stadium. In the 1985-1986 season, Juventus won 8 consecutive victories at the beginning, but in the end, in Naples, Juventus' brilliant winning streak was lost. Na's unbelievable 'free kick in the penalty area' breaks through.

Time is fickle. 18 years later, Maradona sat on the coaching bench, but Naples still did not fall. A 17-year-old genius scored an equally unimaginable 'free kick outside the penalty area'.The huge old woman fell with a crash.

This is reincarnation!

***************

Liu Wen's goal was voted the best goal in Europe this year by reporters after the game.And compare it with Van der Vaart's Scorpio tail, Bergkamp's goal against Newcastle this year.

And Naples' promotion ratio also suddenly rose to 1 to 2.This is a wonderful irony for the Juventus people.

For a whole week, Naples fans were intoxicated with joy, and there were too many things that made them excited and happy. First, Maradona returned to Naples, and then there was a big upset at home, defeating the super giant Juventus-that is Italy The team that has won the most championships is also the defending champion!

Before the winter transfer door closed, Naples also unexpectedly signed the 26-year-old left-back Grosso from the economically troubled Palermo team.The transfer fee is only 200 million euros.

Naples picked up a great deal.

stop here.The new Naples was almost formed.

……

At the press conference, Grosso put on Naples' sky blue No. 6 jersey and took a photo with Liu Wen, Calleo, Miccoli and Maradona.

Giscapi, a reporter from Echo de Naples, raised his camera high and tried to adjust the focus.Through the lens of the camera, he captured the most suitable angle and pressed the shutter heavily.

...while developing photographs.Giscapie noticed something interesting.

Now Liu Wen, Calleo, Miccoli, Grosso, Kompany in Naples.

……

18 years ago, Maradona.Coupled with the all-powerful forwards Careca and Giordano in Naples at the time, the three of them are called the "Magica" combination (ma-gi-ca) of Naples.Plus Brazilian midfielder Alemão and Italian defender Ferrara.Naples became the first rebel army to break the northern rule of Serie A.Of course, everyone depends on Maradona, he is the king here, and he is a well-deserved king.

At that time, in the season before Maradona joined, Naples was a veritable underdog. They barely avoided relegation by only 1 point. After Maradona joined, the team showed an amazing upward momentum.In his first season, Maradona scored 14 goals and Naples ranked eighth. In the second season, he scored 11 goals and the team entered the top three. After that, the dream of the Naples came true. May 1987 On the 5th, after a 10-1 draw with Fiorentina, Maradona led his team to be crowned the Serie A champion for the first time in history, and the previous year he had just led the Argentina team to win the World Cup.

From a relegation underdog to the Serie A champion, it took only two years for Maradona to bring Naples a qualitative change.

And now, Mariano Arini, Gianluca Catricchio, and Emmanuel Calleo have formed a new "Majica combination".The versatile Grosso who can play a defensive midfielder and Vincent Kompany, who is known as a talented defender, are even worse than Alemão and Ferrara.

……

Also five people.Quite a coincidence, isn't it?

Finally, Giscarpi wrote in the press release:

"It can be expected that Naples will be promoted smoothly this season. Then, can we make the following assumptions. After Naples is promoted, it will follow the path that Maradona has traveled, and in three years..."

At the end of the writing, even Giscapi himself laughed at his own cranky thinking. He crumpled up the press release and stuffed it into the wastebasket under his feet.

*****************

……

The game in Naples continues.

In the next round of the league, Naples will go away to challenge the Albenovi team.

Napoli won more easily.In Saturday's game, the Albenovi team at home defeated the Naples team. Although they only conceded three goals, they only shot twice in 10 minutes in the first and second half. Liu Wen shot six times, and before the end of the first half, Naples scored the second goal, which was also Liu Wen scored with a very difficult backward header.

At that time, Grosso picked a pass from the backcourt, and Flores headed the ball into the center of the penalty area. Liu Wen leaned sideways on the opponent's defender Matteo Minello, faced the incoming ball, rubbed the ball with his header, and the ball Draw a beautiful arc, pass over the opponent's goalkeeper's head, and fall straight into the net.The goalkeeper and defender can only look at each other.

The third goal came from Liu Wen's direct planning. At that time, Liu Wen took the ball in the midfield and stuffed it with a beautiful through pass to Caleo on the left. The latter easily pushed the goal.

Napoli's victory was very easy.

In the other few games, Torino lost 0:2 to Messina, while Cagliari, the biggest competitor, was tied 2:2 by Atlanta at home.Zola scored a penalty in the first half and Suazo added the icing on the cake, but Pazzini scored twice in the second half.Let the gap between Cagliari and Naples widen.

It can be seen from the newspaper remarks after the game.

"Pazini kills the suspense, Napoli triumphs."

……

With this 3:0 victory, Naples continued to lead Cagliari by five points, and the Albenovi team became a victim of Naples, falling into the relegation zone for the first time this season.
