After Palermo concedes the ball, the counterattack is a bit fierce, and Fiorentina's defense encounters the biggest crisis since the start of the game. Mondonico does not want this situation to last for a long time, so that the team will concede the ball sooner or later. He stood on the sidelines and kept shouting at the two forwards, asking them to work harder in front and put pressure on Palermo and don't let them lose their attacks.

Both Zhang Jun and Rigano understand that the best defense is offense.

But relying on only one person obviously cannot make any big noise in front of it. They must cooperate, abandon prejudice, and act like a pair of partners, not opponents.

Maspero finally had a chance to pass the ball forward. He only saw Rigano wave his hand in front and immediately passed the ball diagonally.

Rigano wanted to stop the ball, but he felt that someone was defending behind him, and he couldn't turn around even after stopping the ball. He turned to find someone and happened to see Zhang Jun running towards him on the side.

Do you need to cooperate?

He knocked the ball from Maspero directly to Zhang Jun who was approaching him.

But there was also a Palermo player behind Zhang Jun, so he couldn't turn around.

"Transfer it to me again!" Rigano waved to him, and he had turned around and ran forward.

Zhang Jun immediately passed the ball back to Rigano who turned around and inserted it. But Rigano did not completely get rid of the defense. There was a defender behind him, and the person who was originally defending Zhang Jun in front rushed towards him.

Without any consideration, Rigano shook his right ankle and the football bypassed the Palermo defender in front and passed directly to the diagonal front.

Zhang Jun also understood and turned around and rushed forward!

Two consecutive two and one, Zhang Jun and Rigano cooperated brilliantly!

Zhang Jun broke through, and he had only one central defender and goalkeeper in front of him, so he was basically a one-on-one strike!

Opportunity for Florence!

The fans at Frankie Stadium immediately cheered loudly.

Zhang Jun received the ball, and at this moment, he felt energetic again. There were only two goalkeepers in front, so this was nothing. I want to score a goal! I want to score a goal!

With his left foot, he pushed the ball forward, his body stretched out, and his long hair fluttered in the wind.

The last defender rushed up. Looking at his strong body, he seemed to be planning to block Zhang Jun outside the penalty area with a foul. But Zhang Jun would not give him such a chance. His upper body was shaking, so that the opponent could not tell where he was going to break through. Just when he was hesitant, Zhang Jun used his left foot to push the ball to the left, and at the same time, he pushed the ground with his right foot, and his body suddenly moved to the left!

In the eyes of the defenders, the movement instantly seemed to Zhang Jun disappear! He reached out to pull it in vain, and he caught nothing except the air.

A burst of surprise!

Zhang Jun easily broke through the defender, and he would face the goalkeeper.

Palermo's goalkeeper abandoned the goal when Zhang Jun and the defender confronted each other. He caught Zhang Jun off guard. But Zhang Jun moved faster than him. He just rushed to the penalty area line. Zhang Jun looked up and saw that he was too far ahead, so he rubbed his right foot directly. The football flew high, drew a beautiful arc, crossed the goalkeeper's head, and then fell into the empty goal amid the increasing cheers!

The ball has entered!!

Frankie Stadium was in full bloom for the second time!

Zhang Jun scored his first goal in the second division! The first goal in Fiorentina!

Listening to the deafening cheers, Rigano regretted it. The opportunity just now, if he had to rely on his body to squeeze, wouldn't be without it. Maybe the cheers now are dedicated to himself.

Why did I pass the ball to him again?

Just when Rigano regretted it, Zhang Jun rushed towards him, hugged him, shouting: "It's beautiful! Thank you so much!"

Then the other teammates hugged the two of them tightly without saying a word. Rigano couldn't push Zhang Jun even if he wanted to refuse.

He and Zhang Jun became partners like this.

Actually... this Chinese boy is not that annoying...

"Giani, look! You said just now that they lack tacit understanding. These two goals were assisted by each other!" Mondonico said excitedly to assistant coach Bottoreto. What made him so excited was not only Fiorentina lead 2:0, but also because of the cooperation between Zhang Jun and Rigano. "As long as they cooperated with tacit understanding, we hope to increase tenfold to the first level! There is still half of the league!"

In the last game, Fiorentina relied on the tacit cooperation of the two strikers and won Palermo 2-0 at home. She stepped on a solid footprint for their dream of returning to the Class A.

For Zhang Jun, this game is extremely important to him, but he passed the game smoothly. One goal and one assist won the trust of the fans.

The most important thing is that his relationship with Rigano gradually improved.

※※※

Zhang Jun was interviewed by Chinese journalists outside the training ground. He was trapped in such a circle just after the training ended, because he scored a goal in the first Serie B game, which increased the already gradually reduced attention.

Rigano was pulled in by Zhang Jun when he passed by them.

"Let me introduce it, Manniu Rigano, my forward partner, friend!" Zhang Jun smiled at the reporters in Chinese, and someone standing stupidly didn't know why Zhang Jun pulled him over.

If the reporter who interviewed Zhang Jun often used to be, he would have felt this way when he saw Zhang Jun at this time: How long has it been since I seen Zhang Jun's relaxed smile?

It seems that Florence does seem to be more suitable for him than Milan.

The next day, this photo of the two will appear in China Sports Newspapers and the Internet. People will know that Zhang Jun now has a friend named "Manniu".

"Manniu, why don't you like others calling you the 'New God of War'?" Sitting on the bench in the locker room, Zhang Jun asked Rigano who was lying opposite him while drying his hair.

Because Zhang Jun forced him to accompany him for an interview, when they returned to the locker room, there was no one else.

"Why? If you don't like it, you don't like it." Rigano put a white bath towel on his face.

"I always have a reason if I don't like it, right?" Zhang Jun shrugged, "Many people are eager to get this nickname."

"If you like, I can give it to you."

"Uh, no. We are completely different types of shooters, and this nickname is just right for your style." Zhang Jun was afraid that Rigano would misunderstand and waved his hand.

"I've been in Florence for three years, because my style of playing football is a bit like Gabriel Batistuta, so people gave me such a nickname. At first I was very happy and complacent about it, you know what this means. But then I discovered my childishness. Gabriel played for Florence for ten years before he got the title of "God of War". I've only been three years. Gabriel is my idol and target, and I hope one day I will also hope.

I can erect a statue of me outside Frankie and want to retire here. But I just don’t want to be called the ‘New God of War’. Do you know why? It’s actually very simple. There is only one God of War, unique. The so-called ‘New God of War’ is just a clumsy sequel. I will never be able to become a great player like Gabriel.” Rigano’s words sounded a little unwilling, but in fact he realized the gap between himself and Batistuta very sincerely.

Zhang Jun was silent. He thought of his relationship with Mr. Van Basten from Rigano's words.

When I was in the Netherlands, some people always compared him to "Basten's second", and he was like Rigano said: complacent. Oh, I can be compared with Mr. Basten!

So he tried his best to imitate Basten, and even when he chose his future destination, he was influenced by Basten and joined AC Milan.

Now that he has left Milan, he naturally has a split from the road that Basten once walked. Is this a reminder to him: wearing a purple Fiorentina jersey, he will never be a player like Basten. Because Marco Van Basten is Marco Van Basten and Zhang Jun is Zhang Jun. No matter what kind of honor Basten has ever won, it has nothing to do with him.
