"Gao pretended to be crossed, pierced the crotch! Beautiful! He broke through! This time he really crossed Icardi! The ball went in! My God! The ball went in! Icardi headed the ball!"

Amid the shouts of commentator Cilio, the football flew into Juvestabia's goal.

"4:1! 4:1! Sampdoria leads Juvestabia with three goals! There is no suspense in this game! Sampdoria will be qualified to participate in the upgrade play-off two rounds in advance!"

Amid the cheers, Icardi, who scored the goal, did not jump up to celebrate the goal, and he just stood there and covered his face.

Football was so hard that it was on his face that he hadn't recovered...

Even the cheers of the teammates around him seemed to turn into the buzz of flies.

Until he was hugged.

"Beautiful! The league's first goal!"

Although the sound was a little distorted, Icardi could still hear it. This was Gao Zheng's voice.

Then his hand covering his face was spread apart, and he heard Gao Zheng's scream: "Why is your nose so red? Wow, no, Mauro? It's just a goal, are you still excited to cry?"

Icardi couldn't bear it and shouted: "Why are you crying! This is being hit by your pass!"

"Is tears coming out of my face?" Gao Zheng looked at Icardi's eyes in confusion.

"So how harsh you beat!"

"Uh... I was just thinking about passing the ball to you, but I didn't pay attention... I really hit you in the face?" Gao Zheng asked cautiously.

Icardi really has no temper with Gao Zheng. Although the ball hurts me, he wants to assist him after all, so he can't complain that Gao Zheng shouldn't pass the football to him.

He could only nod his head with a reserve: "Yeah."

Unexpectedly, Gao Zheng burst into laughter: "Then didn't you score the first league goal in your career with your face? Puff! Face goal, such a memorable goal was actually a face goal!"

Seeing Gao Zheng laughing happily, Icardi turned out to be beaten and turned black.

"Hey! I'm going to be angry!"

Gao Zheng then covered his mouth: "Sorry, sorry, I won't laugh anymore!" But his eyes bent into crescent moons still betrayed him...

At this time, in the commentary seat, Cialio smiled happily after seeing the slow-motion replay of Icardi's goal: "Icardi's ball actually hit the face and bounced in... At first I didn't see clearly, I thought it was Icardi's head-shaking attack. Gao's pass was very soon and suddenly. It was normal for Icardi not to be prepared, but he didn't expect that he could bounce in the face and bounce in... Should I say Icardi's luck or bad luck? Hahahaha!"

If Icardi could hear what Cilio said, his face would probably be darker...

"No matter how Icardi scored the football, he has already won his first goal, the first goal worth remembering... I just think about it. When I was making Icardi's career record in the future, his first goal in his extremely commemorative career will definitely appear in this record. But Icardi himself is probably not happy to see this scene... Ha!"

The TV broadcast also gave other Sampdoria players and coaching seats, and the people who appeared in the camera were smiling happily.

But it is hard to say what the meaning of this smile is.

Are you happy because you completely locked in the victory, or are you happy when you saw Icardi scored on his face?

Icardi was still rubbing his nose.

This person was supposed to be the happiest person, but now he doesn't look very happy...

※※※

Icardi's goal completely ended the suspense of the game.

Gao Zheng was soon replaced by Yacini. This was his first appearance this season and he successfully completed his mission, with two goals and two assists. The reason why Sampdoria was able to defeat his opponent was all because of him.

After Gao Zheng left the court, although there was still some time before the game ended, no one cared about the game itself anymore.

Sampdoria fans are now more concerned about the upgrade playoffs and what opponents they will encounter.

According to the rules, the sixth and third place in the playoffs, and the fifth and fourth place in the playoffs are both home and away two-round basis. The number of away goals is not calculated in the playoffs. If the two sides tie the total score in two rounds, then the teams with the highest ranking in the league will advance.

Sampdoria is now ranked fifth, while Verona is ranked fourth. They are the same as Sassuolo, but because of their poor results in the battle with Sassuolo, they are ranked fourth.

If this ranking remains until the end of the regular season, then Sampdoria's opponent in the playoffs will be Verona.

Verona is a good opponent.

Sampdoria has played against Verona twice in the regular season this season, achieving one win and one draw. If the two sides meet in the play-offs, Sampdoria will definitely have some psychological advantages.

However, some people also have an irresistible idea when they see Sassuolo with the same points as Verona. With the grudge between Gao Zheng and Sassuolo, will it be a better opponent in the playoffs?

※※※

In the end, Sampdoria won Juvestabia 4:1 away. Although Padua defeated Gubio 3:0 and Varese defeated Ascoli 4:0, it had no effect on Sampdoria.

They locked in the upgraded playoffs two rounds in advance.

Of course, which team can finally play against in the playoffs, you will have to wait until the regular season is over before you know.

The two alternative opponents Sassuolo and Verona both tied the league in this round, so their ranking relationship has not changed, and they are still third and fourth.

And they both scored three points against second place Pescara.

Theoretically, the final rankings of these three teams have not been finalized.

It is entirely possible that Sassuolo and Verona will replace Pescara.

Especially Sassuolo, who was in the top two, was originally in the top two, but since losing to Sampdoria, the league ranking has dropped. If they can return to the top two, for them, it will be just a return to the position they should have.

If you get the top two, you can directly advance to the Serie A. This is a temptation that no team can refuse.

The next round of the league is the 41st round, the penultimate round.

Pescara challenged Sampdoria away.

Sassuolo faces Regina at home.

If Sampdoria can continue their previous good form and defeat Pescara and Sassuolo can defeat Regina, then the gap can be tied.

Sassuolo has the advantage in the game against Pescara. As long as they can tie points, they can surpass Pescara and become the second in the league. Next, in the last round of the league, Sassuolo will be sure to upgrade as long as he wins, and no longer has to participate in the upgrade play-offs.

If it is really upgraded, this will be the first time in their team's history that they have appeared in Italy's top league courts.

However, the premise of all this is that Sampdoria defeated Pescara at home.

The key to Sampdoria's defeat of Pescara is naturally... Gao Zheng.

When I think of this, many Sassuolo fans are like eating flies.

Since that game, few Sassuolo fans have liked Gao Zheng.
