Chapter 59 Chen Yingxiong's Transformation

After Lazio scored two goals, Napoli's attack became even crazier.  M

It was mainly Chen Yingxiong.

He seemed to be stimulated and wanted to score at all costs.

Every time he jumped up to compete for the header, he felt like he was going all out.

He really scored a goal as he wished.

In the 72nd minute, he received a cross from his teammate and jumped high. This time he finally overpowered Jose Passarella and did not let Passarella interfere with him. Then he did a standard lion head shake.

The football flew into Lazio's goal like a cannonball. Ter Stegen did not show a god-level save this time.

Chen Yingxiong finally scored a goal.

After scoring, Chen Yingxiong did not celebrate, although it was not easy to break through Lazio's goal and it was worth celebrating.

But compared to that, being able to completely defeat Lazio was obviously more important.

So after landing, he rushed directly into the goal, pushed Ter Stegen away, then picked up the football and held it in his arms, turned and rushed to the center circle.

The northern giant bear was unwilling to just score one goal, nor was he willing to lose the game!

For this reason, he did not take off his jersey to show the roaring giant bear tattoo covering his entire back - before that, he had shown his tattoos a lot...

Chang Sheng saw Chen Yingxiong score a goal, and his face did not change expression. He was not frustrated or uneasy about the goal.

First of all, he believed in his team, and they still had this little bit of pressure resistance.

Secondly, this was within his expectations. Chen Yingxiong, a player with outstanding personal ability, was obviously impossible to prevent him from scoring a goal. So he had to be prepared for his goal. With preparation. If he scored a goal, there would be nothing to panic.

Third, with preparation, there would be countermeasures. Chang Sheng had already made countermeasures for this situation. He firmly believed that Naples would not be content with the status quo after scoring a goal. They would at least want to equalize the score. Goals would stimulate them, boost their morale, and make them attack more frantically in the next game. Then... this is a great opportunity for Lazio to counterattack!

The following game went as Changsheng expected.

The goal boosted the morale of Naples, and they began to look forward to equalizing the score, or even overtaking and reversing.

The Naples players who dreamed of this began to counterattack frantically after the game resumed.

They wanted to take advantage of the situation to score another goal.

They believed that as long as they scored one more goal, Lazio would collapse. It looked like a draw, but in fact Naples had already gained the upper hand.

Facing Naples' counterattack, Lazio chose to shrink its defense and wait for an opportunity to counterattack.

Even if Cannavaro saw Lazio's plan, he was powerless, because at this time Naples had only one way to go, which was to attack. Losing 1:2 was no different from losing 1:3.

But if they were lucky, they could win the game, and this bet was worth a try!

※ ※ ※

The advantage was still on Lazio's side, after all, this was Lazio's home court.

In the 80th minute. Lazio used a defensive counterattack to score another goal, changing the score to 3:1.

For Naples, this is very uncomfortable.

They have to score at least two goals in the remaining ten minutes to equalize the score. If they want to win, they have to score more goals.

The suspense of this game has actually been killed.

Even Cannavaro lowered his head and returned to the coaching seat-this was the first time he sat down in this game, but he had been standing before.

In his opinion, the game was over.

Naples could not beat Lazio away.

Facts have proved that although Naples has Chen Yingxiong. But the overall strength is still far from Lazio.

Football is a collective sport, and it is useless to rely on only one Chen Yingxiong.

The failure of this game has strengthened Cannavaro's determination to build a team around Chen Yingxiong. Starting from the winter break, it is necessary to search for players who can help the team, meet the team's tactical requirements, and can cooperate with Chen Yingxiong's technical and tactical characteristics in the transfer market.

Naples is going to replace fresh blood.

※ ※ ※

Cannavaro had given up, and even the Napoli players on the field had given up.

But there was still one Napoli player on the field who had not given up, and that was Chen Yingxiong.

Chen Yingxiong only scored one goal in this game, and did not help the team win the game.

Logically speaking, he was a complete loser.

But Chen Yingxiong did not give up. There were still ten minutes left in the game, and he was looking for a chance to score.

Helplessly, as a pure center forward, he was extremely dependent on the support of his teammates. If there were no teammates in the midfield and backcourt to send him a high-quality pass, he would be just a bridgehead and transit station in the frontcourt to receive the ball and pass the ball out.

There was no threat to the Lazio goal guarded by Ter Stegen.

Now he could only choose to play back-to-back with Jose Passarella when he got the ball.

It seemed to go back again, back to the scene at the beginning of the game.

But what is different from the beginning of the game is that before it was because Chen Yingxiong got stuck in a dead end, but this time it was Chen Yingxiong's helpless choice - except for post-up singles, what else can he do now?

Jose Passarella is no longer afraid of confronting Chen Yingxiong. He does not use his body, but uses technology, consciousness, and experience to defend Chen Yingxiong, without even fouling.

But Chen Yingxiong had brute strength, and when he met Jose Passarella, it was like he punched the air but hit the air. Not only did he not hurt the opponent, but he pulled too hard because of it. On muscles and joints...

Until the whistle blew at the end of the game, Chen Yingxiong was unable to score again.

His number of goals in this game is locked at one.

This is also his eleventh goal of the season.

This number ensures that he continues to rank second in the league's scorer list.

But he didn't care at all.

When the game was over, he stared at Jose Passarella with his fists clenched.

It looked like he was about to punch the other person.

But actually no, he just vowed secretly in his heart that he must work hard to improve his post-up ability! He can't be the guy who always has to rely on his teammates. If your teammates don't perform well, wouldn't you just watch the team fail without being able to save it? No! I want to be the kind of person who can turn the tide on my own. The player who alone determines the outcome of the game!

A few years later, when the forward line of the Chinese national team benefited from Chen Yingxiong's super personal ability, perhaps no one would have thought that the opportunity for Chen Yingxiong to transform from a simple point-grabbing center to an all-around forward appeared in the failure of this game. .

Failure drives progress, that’s right.

Ji Ming came up to exchange jerseys with him. After Chen Yingxiong took his jersey, he patted Ji Ming on the shoulder: "Next time, I will never let you be more popular than me!"

Ji Ming smiled: "Okay, I'll wait for you!"

After the game against Naples. Chang Sheng did not ridicule Chen Yingxiong at the post-match press conference.

He took the scene very lightly.

Although it has been more than twenty years since he traveled to this world, sometimes he still can't get rid of the fan mentality.

He must admit that he does appear to be very "soft-hearted" towards Chinese players. He rarely has direct conflicts with Chinese players. Nor will he start a war of words with Chinese players.

He has a very simple principle, that is, everyone is Chinese. Whether it is for the rise of Chinese football, for himself and his family to live a good life, or to realize his dream, he comes to Europe to play football. In short, it is objectively good for Chinese football.

Since they are like-minded people. That's gay.

We are all Chinese. If we quarreled with each other and became enemies in Europe, wouldn’t that make Europeans laugh?

They have even more reason to say that Chinese people are inherently ununited.

In order not to make Europeans laugh. In order to show the unity and friendship of the Chinese people, Chang Sheng never provokes other Chinese players. Even if other Chinese players are not polite to him, he will not respond.

He has always adhered to this principle.

He can be sharp-tongued even with Chinese media reporters. No face is left to the players and coaches. They are all very gentle.

Not only that, when Chinese players perform unsatisfactorily after landing in Europe, are criticized, and are under great pressure, even though it seems that these players have no relationship with Chang Sheng, Chang Sheng will still stand up and speak for these players. , giving them advice on how to survive in European football.

Being a big shot with a well-known reputation in European football is quite useful if he wins often.

In the past ten years, countless Chinese players have received direct or indirect help from him.

Of course, when it comes to the court, he will never refuse when it's his turn to win.

This is not a contradiction, but the most correct professional attitude.

After Chen Yingxiong lost the game, he was quite tough-mouthed and did not admit defeat, saying that he would play again.

"Every time I play Lazio, I am full of fighting spirit. I like this feeling. Lose this game? It doesn't matter. We will have many opportunities to play against each other in the future. I can't always be the losing side!"

Chen Yingxiong said confidently during an interview in the mixed zone. From him, you can't tell that he is a loser at all, without the slightest bit of frustration and pain that a loser should have. On the contrary, he is as motivated as a player who has just won this game and hopes to continue winning. .

Some reporters criticized Chen Yingxiong's poor performance at the beginning of the game at the post-match press conference, believing that his performance was the main reason for the team's eventual loss to Lazio, and asked Cannavaro why he was not replaced earlier. .

In this regard, Cannavaro firmly stood on the side of his players.

"Replace him? Substitute him, maybe we can't score a goal. I don't think there is any problem with this. A young player always has to be competitive. He met a very strong opponent and he was willing to Challenging the opponent again and again instead of running away after suffering setbacks, I think this is what makes the hero better than most players. Because of this, I am 100% optimistic about the future of the hero. He will be Europe. The most brilliant forward in football in the future!”
