Chapter 350 The Sailor and the Sea
"Beraldi's goal gave Sampdoria an unexpected lead at home! This was really unexpected. Everyone thought that Barcelona would win even on the road, but Sampdoria did not agree..."
The commentator of Catalonia TV was surprised. He did not exaggerate. He was talking about what he thought.
He just thought that even if Sampdoria was at home, it was a surprise to lead Barcelona.
He just thinks that Barcelona is not the first goal scorer, which is beyond many people's expectations.
The strength of the two teams is not at the same level at all, and there should not be such a performance.
Even if Sampdoria puts a bus in front of the goal, she can at most not lose the ball in a short period of time. How could she have the strength to fight back and score a goal?
He can't figure it out.
There are many Barcelona fans who can't figure out why they watch Sampdoria's goal replay that is repeatedly played on TV. They can't figure out why a Chinese man, who is 1.9 meters tall, can make a oxtail move and trick Pique away.
Barcelona fans are not unfamiliar with the extraordinary move of "oxtail", and they can even be said to be very familiar with it, because before Messi, one of the most proficient fake moves of Barcelona's absolute superstar, Brazilian Ronaldinho, is the "oxtail". This move was not invented by Ronaldinho, but it was developed by him, especially when he played for Barcelona.
He used this imaginative and extremely fancy fake move again and again to deceive his opponent on the wing and broke into the penalty area.
It caused thunderous joy in the Camp Nou Stadium.
Barcelona fans were fascinated by Ronaldinho's superb personal skills, believing that he was a football elf who landed in the world and turned into a Brazilian appearance to bring happiness to everyone.
Ronaldinho is 1.82 meters tall. As a football player, he can be regarded as a standard height. He is very beautiful when making a oxtail move.
Generally speaking, the more fancy the movements, the harder it is to maintain balance, so short players will be more coordinated and have more advantages than tall players.
It is hard to imagine that a big man like Gao Zheng, who is 1.9 meters tall, could even make such exquisite fake oxtail movements, and it did not make people feel inconsistent and worried that he would fall to the ground.
Even when he made this move, he felt that he was a little understatement...
This is really something that Barcelona fans can't accept.
They suddenly felt that something they had always regarded as treasure seemed to have been snatched away...
"Oxtail! Gao Zheng showed his footwork skills that were not inferior to South American players at all. This movement was really beyond Pike's expectations. We can clearly see from slow motion that Pike was not prepared for it. When Gao Zheng pushed the football to the right, he turned around without hesitation. When Gao Zheng threw the football to the left with his oxtail, he could not react at all and could only watch Gao Zheng break through..." He Ping explained to the audience incessantly.
How powerful Gao Zheng’s move is, it’s not that he thinks that fans who stay up late to watch the game don’t understand, but that he wants to take this opportunity to brag about Gao Zheng. “We have often seen this move in Ronaldinho, and the chances of appearing in other players are not high… I don’t say that no one else can do it, it can be, especially in training. But Ronaldinho is the most skilled person who can just use the oxtail to pass the opponent in the game just right…”
On the surface, he was praising Ronaldinho, but in fact he was bringing Gao Zheng and Ronaldinho to the same position.
At this moment, I don’t know how many Chinese fans are shouting “Gao Zheng is awesome!”
It was clearly Berardi who scored the goal, but Gao Zheng became the protagonist of everyone's discussion.
Sampdoria fans in Italy are more happy about the team's leading position. Although Gao Zheng's personal performance made them exclaim, they still have to rely on the scores in the end.
Sampdoria fans are most happy that the team is leading, no one doesn’t like their team winning. Even if they think this is incredible, if it is really possible, who will refuse?
I'm afraid even the Sampdoria fan who was waving Messi's jersey would not be saddened by his team's defeat to Messi's team.
The Malasi Stadium has become a sea of singing, and everyone is singing Sampdoria's team song:
"...Do you know that the color of the South Stand belongs to the color of heroes? You can change the world, just sing with us, Come on, Doria! Come on, Sampdoria! Every game is a carnival! Come on, Doria! Come on, Sampdoria! In every corner of the city, time has passed, and our original intention has not changed..."
The blue and white flags in the stands were waving like the waves of the ocean, and the singing resounded like the sound of the waves.
Sampdoria's nickname is the sailor, and the Malasi Stadium, which carries this team, is naturally the ocean, and the ocean is boiling now!
Amid the singing, Gao Zheng and his teammates celebrated the goal and ran back to their half. They waved their arms to the stands. It was a group of sailors who were shaking the wind and waves. After defeating the wind and waves, they were wet, but they were not embarrassed, but full of energy and passion!
After the game started again, Barcelona, who lost the ball, performed a little in a panic.
Sampdoria's morale increased greatly and launched a fierce attack on Barcelona's goal. This scene was so anxious that Martino could no longer sit in the coach's seat.
He stood on the sidelines, constantly waving his arms, shouting and reminding the team members to keep steady and then stabilize.
Caresa sighed: "What an admirable sailor! Facing the powerful Barcelona, they can actually suppress each other! You know, their third place last year made many people dissatisfied, and they felt that going to the Champions League would only embarrass Italian football... But now, let's see who is defending the dignity of Italian football? It's this unpopular Sampdoria! They have been in so long... so we all forgot that the last time Sampdoria participated in the Champions League, they reached the final! Perhaps something in this team has never changed... that is the optimism and tenacity of the sailors!"
On Barcelona, the Catalan commentator was a little nervous: "Barcelona is very passive now, they must adjust it immediately. In fact, it is just one goal behind, there is no need to panic. We must believe that with our strength, we can definitely get it back... At this time, of course our heroes need to stand up and use practical actions to stabilize the morale of the army..."
TV broadcasts gave close-up shots of Barcelona's superstars one by one, Messi, Neymar, Sanchez, Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets, Pique... These Barcelona players appeared one by one in the close-up shots, each with different expressions and movements. Some raised their hands to signal their teammates to pass the ball to them, some frowned and solemn, and some were yelling to remind their teammates.
Barcelona fans really didn't expect that they could see these stars in the game so anxious and embarrassed.
I thought it would be a game where you can win easily without bloodshed. It was like a weekend vacation, coming with a relaxed mood and going back with a happy mood.
