The Football Journey After Soul Shifting

The newspaper headlines for January [-]th are interesting. The large color photos of the 'Napoli Five' taken by Giscapi, a reporter from Echo de Naples, were widely quoted by major newspapers.

In the situation where the Naples team defeated Bologna, Rome, Juventus and other top-level teams one after another, like the ancient Spartan warriors on the upgrade road, "attack like the wind, go like the wind", such as "Looking forward to the horse- Slogans such as "Scoglio: Naples is sure to upgrade" are just like the "handsome" label on 4wen's back.

……

In any case, this is also the fateful process of a weak team transforming into a strong team.

After the victory over Albinoleffe at the Azzurri Stadium (Albinoleffe and Atalanta are the same city team and share the same stadium), the Naples team left Bergamo that night and returned to Naples by bus .In the next few weeks, Naples has a few tough games to play, starting with a double away game next week; Wednesday against third-placed Torino at the Stadio San Paolo, and the weekend will follow the example of the Peloponnese Alcibiades in the Caesars War, expedition to Sicily, where they faced the second-tier powerhouse Messina team.

As Scoglio said, although Naples is still 5 points ahead of Zola-led Cagliari and 11 points ahead of fourth-ranked Fiorentina, football is round after all, and it has not yet been determined. Everything is possible before armor punching succeeds.Now Naples can only fight one game at a time until the upgrade is successful.

……

On the training ground in Naples, Liu Wen, Miccoli, Flores, and Calleo began to cooperate with the training process.

"Fabrezio! Pass the ball to Mariano!!"

Scoglio shouted loudly from the sidelines.But Miccoli didn't seem to heed the coach's roar, he was very fast.In a blink of an eye, he passed the defense of right back Sabul, and the Moroccan could only slow down Miccoli's breakthrough speed slightly through the movements of his hands.The Italian striker hit the goal directly from the right side of the penalty area.The ball hit Jorgentati's body and bounced off the bottom line.

……

Compared with the former Ma-Ji-Ka combination, the combination of Liu Wen, Miccoli and Caleo undoubtedly has more potential, but at least there is still a lot lacking, the most lacking is tacit understanding.

Scoglio stood courtside, frowning, and he too saw the problem.Whether it's against Juventus, or against Albinoleffe.Miccoli and Liu Wen just fight on their own in more cases, even in training.

Perhaps it overlaps with Liu Wen's position. Miccoli, who is only 1 meters tall, also plays the center forward position on the court, and he is the same as Liu Wen.They all like to stay on the left.During training, Liu Wen and Miccoli also often ran together, resulting in a situation of grabbing a point at the same time.

Scoglio also thought about pairing Liu Wen with Caleo, but the facts made him even more disappointed. Compared with Liu Wen, Caleo relies more on others to make the ball for him.

It can be said that Liu Wen's state is the barometer or carp streamer of Naples. Once Liu Wen's state is not good, Naples' offense will be the same as his state.Let's play falling into the water together and turn off the fire together.

In fact, there is still a problem in Naples now. With the defensive problem basically solved, Naples still lacks a player who can play the ball.A midfielder who is good at fast breakthroughs, Flores' position is basically fixed at the left forward position, while Giannini has a wide vision.The consciousness is outstanding, but after all, he is already in his 30s.Lack of speed on the field.Naturally, nothing can be seen in the game against weak teams such as Albino Lefe, but once in the game against Juventus and other first-tier teams.There will be passive beatings and the situation is completely out of control.

Take the game against Juventus last week as an example. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that under the pressure of Juventus, Naples' midfield line has almost no way to organize an effective attack. The Juventus defense harassed.If it wasn't for Juventus's Del Piero being out of form; if Trezeguet wasn't on the court; if Mariano was in such a good state that the score would be determined by the situation on the court, then it would be normal for Naples to lose three goals of.

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

Although the team has performed well in recent rounds, creating four wins and one loss, Torino coach Enzio Rossi (ezio rossi) is still a little unhappy.It's no wonder, who told him that he is now coaching Turin?This 'Red Bull', which shares the Alpi Stadium with Juventus, once ruled the roost in Italy in the last century. Although it is ups and downs in Serie B, it is one of the few in Serie B in terms of fame, strength and financial status. .

As the Italian proverb says: the poor have the riches of the poor, and the rich have the troubles of the rich.Although it is slightly less difficult to upgrade a team like Turin, it also creates great pressure virtually.Torino is now third in Serie B, seven points behind No.1 Napoli and two behind No.2 Cagliari.To make matters worse, they had just lost to sixth-ranked Sicilian team Messina last weekend.

Thinking of Wednesday's upcoming away game against Naples, Enzio Rossi felt a little anxious.That's not an easy team to deal with!Although in the first half of the season, he led Turin to a 3-0 victory over Naples, but that was achieved when Mariano Arini was injured and Carleo was in excellent condition, but now, Mariano Ali Neil is in full swing, and the main striker, Carleo, is going to Naples - against this Serie B leader who can beat Roma away and Juventus at home, and see who will destroy who, and it will be played at the San Paolo Stadium, which usually has a capacity of 7. Ball - to win on a pitch like this?Unless you give him a Nesta right away, then give him a Ronaldo.

He sighed, crossed his legs, and watched the footage on the TV - in this Napoli-Albinoleffe game.With Mariano's brilliant performance, Naples beat Albino Lefe 3-0.He has watched this video many times.Strictly speaking, this Naples team is compared to the Torino team.It is slightly better on all lines, except for the striker line-the striker with Mariano, Miccoli and Calleo is not much inferior to the striker of AC Milan Shevchenko-Torres.He just wants to sigh.Mariano Arini, a brat who came out of nowhere - he has height, speed, skills, and his feet are finer than Rivaldo; he can compete for headers, defend, and pass the ball; as long as the ball is passed to his head, he can throw the ball all over the ground; every game has at least a dozen long-distance raids; he has not stopped scoring until now; just use this game to mark his Ai According to Sposito.He did everything he could to stop Mariano from scoring: slamming, pulling, tripping – but what about his opponent?Breaking through, fighting for the top, dribbling, and shooting are omnipotent, and what's even more shameful is that Mariano has repeatedly dribbled on him several times, and passed once.Bringing the ball back for another pass - this left Esposito almost helpless; eventually a difficult backward header from the opponent broke the goal.

... All in all, for opponents, this 1.9-meter-one talented shooter is simply the embodiment of Satan.

"You have to find a way to keep him in check... As long as you can keep him in check, the Turin team will have a way to win..."

The famous coach Enzio Rossi (ezio Rossi) said to himself.

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

January eighteenth.It was raining heavily.But the interest of Naples fans remains undiminished.

Before the game, the fans received a notification from the Naples club that their idol, Maradona, would appear on the bench.But this time not only as an assistant coach, he has another identity at the moment.The Naples player wearing the number 10 jersey.

... I have to admire the hype skills of the Naples high-level executives. An ordinary game is easily given a halo.In addition, the team's recent performance is indeed very good, and a lot of stars have also been introduced.In view of this, the ticket prices for the weekend games are also soaring. The original luxury ticket of 80 euros, now the fans have to pay 150 euros...

Of course, the fans don't care about this little money. They only know that the team is now the league leader and has just defeated Juventus. As a second-tier team, it is really not easy to achieve such results, but They still expect the team to continue to bring them joy.

You can think this way, and you can also say that, let alone rain, even if there is a knife in the sky, the loyal fans of Naples will not abandon Naples, and they will still flock to the San Paolo Stadium.

……

"There seems to be hope."

Turin coach Enzio Rossi (ezio rossi) looked up at the heavy rain and exhaled softly.

Like ordinary golf courses, the drainage system of St. Paul Stadium is not very perfect. There is a lot of water on the field, and there are potholes and ponds everywhere.

As we all know, on such a venue, it is difficult to display skills and dribble well.Even passing the ball is very difficult.Under such circumstances, the long pass will inevitably become the main theme of the game, and English football will become a new weapon in the Italian arena.The gap in strength will be narrowed to a minimum.

……

"Mariano, don't worry, the opponent's strength is not as strong as ours, we will win!" Before kick-off, Grosso ran over, patted Liu Wen on the shoulder, and whispered, "We are the leaders."

Liu Wen smiled at him, lowered his head, and flicked the ball with his foot. The wet ball rolled around under his feet, which seemed a little disobedient.

"Well, we will definitely win!"

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

The referee blew his whistle, and the game began after the volcanic eruption at the San Paolo Stadium.Perhaps because of the weather, neither side dared to press the formation too far forward, and they were launching their attacks cautiously.

After nearly 15 minutes of testing, the Naples team gradually took the initiative on the field relying on their home court advantage.

The scene was really ugly.

Miccoli grabbed the ball in the melee and took a long-range shot from 35 meters away, but the long-range shot was outrageously biased and hit the corner flag impartially.

Turin serves.On such a field, they have no way to organize an effective offense because they are good at short passing.Judging from the scene, the Turin team is not much inferior, and even launched several extremely threatening counterattacks. Unfortunately, there is too much water on the ground, either the ball is not passed properly, or the players are careless when kicking and receiving the ball. slip.

Torino striker Osmanoski (osmanoski) is literally sleepwalking today.

This is not an easy game for both sides.In many cases, the ball is simply flying around in the sky because there is no way to roll it once it hits the ground.

……

As powerful as Liu Wen, there is no way to move freely on such grass.

Maresca passed the ball to Liu Wen from the midfielder and he tried to dribble past Torino midfielder Machesse. Behind him—but the ball bounced a few times, but it remained in place, and the stagnant water hindered the ball's castration.Marches broke the ball out of the sideline with a big foot.

Such a ball is really not easy to play.

Liu Wen and Flores approached the referee and asked to suspend the game—according to the regulations of the Italian Football Association, if there is water in a local area and the ball cannot bounce, they have the right to coordinate the suspension of the game.

The ball quickly floated up in the stagnant water. It is indeed difficult to continue such a game, but unfortunately, the Turin team did not agree to suspend the game.

To put it bluntly, such a venue is actually a dream for the Turin team.

... Flores received a long ball from Maresca on the left and he unloaded the ball with ease, but Torino defender Adami was immediately on the defensive.

"What a headache, I'm not a blonde!"

Flores didn't dare to dribble. His blond hair was wet from the rain and stuck to his forehead, seriously affecting his vision.He quickly took the ball one step across and picked a pass into the penalty area with his right foot.

The position of the pass is not very good, although it happened to be passed between the two central defenders Fernandez and Fabio Galante of Turin, but the position is too far, the ball in this position, there is a [-]% chance will be picked up by the goalkeeper.

But at this moment, the talented striker who 'uses his tall body to throw the ball all over the ground' rushed up quickly,
