Hero of the Penalty Area

Chapter 16 A Reserve Team More Popular Than The First Team (Three Watches, Monthly Ticket!)

As the name suggests, the reserve team is a place for players who are temporarily unavailable for the first team, and a place for players who need to slowly find their status after recovering from injury.

Although they are in the reserve team, they are still with the first team during training, but they can't play in the game and have no status at all.

Most of the players who go to the reserve team are basically abandoned by the club. In order not to be unable to play for a long time, such people will cause a decline in their state and competitive level, so they are thrown to the reserve team and maintained by the reserve team. status.

It can be said that the reserve team is the trash can of the first team-people who are not needed by the first team, but are relatively old and impossible to go to the youth team. All players are assigned to the reserve team.

In the reserve team, Chen Yingxiong met some old teammates of the first team, such as Sarayeta. Due to his strength in the penalty zone and rarely injured physique, the poor Uruguayan shooter has always been unable to get any chance to play.

In addition, he also saw substitute goalkeeper Navarro.

The Argentinian goalkeeper who used to oppose Ravizi and Gargano and squeezed out himself is now the only remaining member of the Argentine gang in the Naples team. His two teammates Lavezzi and Gargano both left the team, and he was alone.

When he first joined Naples, he didn't have a friend in the team, and Lavezzi was the closest to him, often asking him to eat and play at home.

He also has the best relationship with Lavezi.

But now that his best friend is gone, his status in the dressing room has naturally declined. Besides, as a substitute goalkeeper, there is basically no chance to play. It is natural to be assigned to the reserve team.

He is already considering emulating his two friends and seeking a way to leave Naples for a transfer.

Seeing Chen Yingxiong also came to the reserve team at this time, he was still a little bit happy-making you arrogant! You are unlucky too!

But then he discovered a fact that frustrated him.

That is, although everyone is in the reserve team, there are differences. Obviously, he cannot be compared with Chen Yingxiong. The reserve coach Portrazzi's attitude towards Chen Yingxiong was obviously better, and other teammates also welcomed them. Because fools know that Chen Yingxiong and the others will definitely return to the first team. It is only a short punishment at the moment. How can they be compared with them, who are simply unable to play the game?

It is still a dragon in Longkun Shoal, and even if a chicken can fly on a tree, it cannot become a phoenix.

On July 17, Naples played a warm-up match against an Italian C-League team at the end of the physical training period. In this game, Chen Yingxiong, Arshavin, Hamsik, Sanchez, Maggio, Cassano and Santa Croce did not appear in the first team's squad.

There are not even a few of them on the bench.

In this game, Mazzari used some youth team teenagers to examine the level of youth training in Naples.

So where did these people go?

They are on the scene of the warm-up match of the Naples reserve team...

So there was a very rare situation-the Naples first team warm-up match attracted far less media than the Naples reserve team's warm-up match attracted as many reporters...

The two games are not held on the same day at the same time, so there is no such thing as a difficult decision for the reporters. Even so, the first team warm-up game that took place first attracted more than 20 reporters, while the reserve team game a day later. More than fifty reporters came—except for the dozen or so Chinese reporters who only focused on Chen Yingxiong, this number is still very impressive.

Why is there such a situation?

Because almost all of the most popular stars in Naples are in the reserve team...

So the warm-up opponent of the Naples reserve team was completely tragedy.

San Giovannese's goal was knocked open by the Naples reserve team in the fifth minute.

The one who scored is...Arshavin!

After receiving the pass from Chen Yingxiong, he walked into the penalty area and then scored with a low shot.

There was a huge cheer on the scene.

Not only journalists came more, but even more fans came to watch the game than the first team... The fans used their feet to show off what kind of Napoli players they like better.

Although there have been conflicts with football hooligans, the popularity of these Naples players has not been affected because they beat the football hooligans that everyone hates, and they are still defending...

Three minutes later, the Naples reserve team made a comeback.

Cassano dribbled in the middle. He showed his exquisite footwork and technique to his heart's content, which caused the San Giovanni players to rush up in a swarm, wanting to rely on the power of numbers to break off the football at Cassano's feet. At this moment, no one thought that Cassano passed the ball!

He stabbed the football directly to Chen Yingxiong!

Chen Yingxiong catches the ball and turns, kicks and shoots!

The football flew in from the right side of the goal...

The goal itself was nothing surprising, but the reporters in the stands were all staring.

What did they see?

They saw that Cassano actually passed the football to Chen Yingxiong! !

In the competition, Chen Yingxiong and Cassano formed a cooperation!

It seems that the news that they are friends really cannot be faked...

After the goal, Chen Yingxiong turned to point at Cassano who passed the ball to him. Cassano ran over and jumped high. Chen Yingxiong turned around and let him jump on his body.

Cassano rode on Chen Yingxiong's back and celebrated the goal with Chen Yingxiong.

From this point of view, the relationship between the two of them must be closer than ordinary teammates...

"This is incredible!"

The reporters in the stands talked a lot after they were shocked.

"Chen Yingxiong will become friends with Cassano?"

"The end of the world is coming soon, right?"

"It's nothing strange, right? From the perspective of their two personalities...it seems to be a good match... Both of them are neurotic, lunatic, and mentally retarded!"

"Sure enough, geniuses are different from ordinary people like us. They have a perverse character, which is elusive..."

Because it is a reserve team, the number of people should have been smaller than the first team, so Portrazzi could not have a lineup in the first half and another lineup in the second half like Mazzari. Therefore, the seven players assigned from the first team almost played the entire game.

They were not replaced one after another until the 78th minute.

This is a scene that is relatively difficult to see in the warm-up match.

In the warm-up match of the first team, even the captain Paul Cannavaro played only fifty minutes before being replaced, giving the opportunity to the small teammates who were temporarily transferred from the youth team.

But in the reserve team, the seven members of the Naples Eat, Drink and Play Group can hone their tacit understanding during the game.

In fact, this is also Mazari's arrangement.

When deciding to throw these seven people into the reserve team for introspection, he was considering how to not affect the team's preparations for the new season.

His instruction to Portrazzi is to arrange for seven of them to play at the same time in the warm-up match, and to play as long as possible, so that they have enough time and maintain the state to find a tacit understanding.

Especially the cooperation between Cassano and Chen Yingxiong, is his focus.

Therefore, in this warm-up match of the reserve team, head coach Mazzari sat in the stands and watched the whole game. He is very satisfied with the performance of the seven men. Cassano is just like a free man in the frontcourt. He can play in the middle or the side. The most important thing is that his skills are very delicate and he can dribble and create by himself. Opportunity, as well as the ability to make a fatal pass at the front of the penalty zone, this is very important.

And Sanchez's breakthrough on the wing was really sharp. In terms of breakthrough ability, he is no less than Lavizzi who has left the team. Although the ability to pass is still lacking, people are obedient and willing to practice! Unlike Lavizzi, who refused to be a passer to assist Chen Yingxiong to death.

It doesn't matter if the passing technique is poor now, as long as you are willing to practice. Sanchez is only twenty years old, and he is far from finalizing his skills.

In the end, with the outstanding performance of these seven players who were demoted from the first team to the reserve team, the Naples reserve team defeated San Giovanni by a huge score of 15:1.

Chen Yingxiong scored five dollars in the game, showing his excellent state in front of goal. It seems that no matter whether it is fighting with teammates or with football hooligans, his state has not been affected. On the battlefield, he is very vigorous. He is just as vigorous on the court.

Cassano also scored two goals and three assists. The three assists were evenly distributed, one to Chen Yingxiong, one to Arshavin, and another to Sanchez.

Sanchez also played well in the game, scoring one goal and two assists. His breakthrough on the wing was shown vividly. It now seems that for Sanchez's age and his potential, there is no loss for these two million.

As for the performance of several other people, it is also remarkable. Hamsik's combat midfielder is the team's commander tower. Arshavin's breakthrough on the wing is sharp, not only that, but he can also shoot inside, which is quite threatening. As the team's central defender, Santa Croce is also very stable defensively, and that loss has nothing to do with him. As for Maggio, his performance at the full-back position is actually better than at the full-back position...

Being exiled to the reserve team did not let them sink. On the contrary, this group of people got together, as if they had other motivations, and performed very hard.

In fact, their motivation is very simple... to return to the first team!

No one wants to stay in the reserve team for a lifetime. As the main players of the first team, they are naturally unwilling to hang out with the losers here.

This season, they are going to participate in the Champions League, and nothing is worthwhile if they don't return to the first team.
