Chapter 209

After the first leg of the fourth round of the Coppa Italia, everyone was shocked to find that the Serie B was almost wiped out.

AC Milan beat Brescia 4-0 at home, Trestina lost 1-2 at home to Roma, Sampdoria lost 0-1 at home to Palermo...

Only Napoli, who faced Parma at home, won 2-0 with two goals in the opening six minutes and dominated the entire game.

To use the report of Gazzetta dello Sport: Naples played a typical high-level offensive football again!

Judging from the overall situation of the duel between Serie A and Serie B, even the middle and lower reaches of Serie A teams have a strength advantage when they encounter strong Serie B teams, and this advantage is also very obvious in the cup competition.

This is actually not surprising. If there is no difference in strength between Serie A and Serie B, is it still two levels of leagues?

On the contrary, it is really surprising that a team like Naples can leapfrog and kill Serie A teams in a row in the cup, especially this game against Parma.

However, some media have also raised doubts, that is, Napoli's several outstanding performances were all at their own home.

Against Ascoli, against Juventus, against Parma, all at home.

If you really want to be convincing, you still have to look at the away performance in the second leg. .

"After Parma returns to the home court, they will definitely try their best to counterattack in the second round. This is the real test for Naples."

"How much quality the advanced team has, we will be able to see it clearly at that time."

Not only did the media report this, but Parma coach Pioli also said the same in his post-match press conference.

Pioli said that his team encountered great difficulties at the Sao Paulo Stadium, especially at the start. They played very passively. Napoli seized the opportunity and scored two goals in a row, which completely changed the game.

"Our opponents did have more luck at home, with two shots in front and both of them scored."

Pioli said bitterly that he did not intend to shirk responsibility for the team's defense, but the opponent's luck was better, which is also true.

At least the first two shots were on target, which was really efficient.

For the second round, Pioli expressed his confidence that the team will be able to reverse at home.

In addition, Pioli also admitted that Napoli does not look like a Serie B team, but should be a Serie A team.

"Gao Shen really brought out a very competitive, but also very young, very unique team."

So, Pioli is a good guy.

Gao Shen also praised Pioli.

That's his style, as long as I can win, you're the best.

No way, the embarrassing blow before the game made it difficult to speak the irony now.

It's impossible to say that what I said before the game was all embarrassing and psychological warfare, so don't take it seriously.

Is there such a thing in the world?

Therefore, Gao Shen continued to blow hard, and at the same time, it was a wake-up call for his players. The fourth round was a two-round match, and the second round was a visit to Parma, which would also be a big challenge for Naples.

The media is not necessarily wrong.

From this season to the present, all of Naples' strong-to-strong conversations are basically at home.

The cup draw is really luck. The first three rounds are all home games, and the fourth round is also the home game.

These are the arrangements of fate.

It is estimated that Naples has just been reorganized, so it is easy first and then difficult.

At the press conference, the media also asked about a detail, that is Guardiola.

The legendary Barcelona captain has basically not been in the mainstream media since he left Serie A. The last time there was news was when he joined Qatar, but there has been no news since then.

Even if he went to Manchester City for a trial, no one knew.

Even if he went to Mexico later, no one cared, but this time he suddenly appeared in the coaching bench in Naples, which was somewhat surprising.

Gao Shen introduced Guardiola's situation very briefly, and clarified the news that he was his assistant, but he did not elaborate on his identity.

In fact, his heart blossomed with joy.

Nima, you finally noticed!

Hurry up to dig, dig more, and sit tight, don't you have to look up when Gugua encounters me?

But on the surface, Gao Shen is still very calm.

No way, this year, the head coach also has to play with character design.

The grade itself is young, and if you are not stable, how can you do it?

There is a saying in the press: the fewer the words, the bigger the matter.

The more Gao Shen did not want to say, the more curious the media became.

Afterwards, the media seemed to have a set of standard procedures for the news of Napoli's 2-0 victory over Parma, how to hype it and how to praise it.

The only thing that is special is that Sacchi exaggerated a few words in the column, thinking that this game is better than that of Juventus, especially the opening, the preparation before the game is very good, it can be seen that Gao Shen put his heart into it.

The old master is the old master, and you can see the clues by watching the game.

On this point, Gao Shen can only give Saki a big word of service.

But it was Guardiola who really pushed Napoli into the limelight.

The Italian media took the lead in reporting, and soon attracted the attention of the Spanish media, especially the Catalan media.

I have to say that the way Barcelona treated Guardiola back then was indeed a bit rude, causing Guardiola to almost have no ball to play, so that he has hardly appeared publicly in Barcelona over the years.

And this time, he went to Italy, under the command of Gao Shen, what happened?

How about the media?

Soon, the cause and effect were caught out by rambling.

But this also makes the Catalan media very uncomfortable.

Oh, Guagua, you are a legend in our Barcelona. You went to Mexico to find Lillo, and to Argentina to find Bielsa, that's fine, right? Now, you have obtained a coaching certificate, and you are not doing an internship in Barcelona, but going to Italy to find advanced studies?

Don't you know that Gao Shen has a deep hatred with us in Barcelona?

But when I think about it, the Catalan media is really helpless, because Rijkaard was at his peak last season, and Barcelona's performance has fallen sharply this season. After losing Ten Carter, the locker room is even more frequent. out of control.

Neskens, who replaced Ten Carter, is also a good guy, not a tough character like Ten Carter.

And now, everyone knows that Gao Shen is building a team of his own, and the concept is very advanced. It is understandable that Guardiola should learn.

It's as if Bielsa said in an interview with the media in Argentina: He talked a lot about advanced topics with Guardiola.

Lillo also mentioned in Mexico that the advanced Napoli is the team he is most interested in right now.

You see, no one mentions Barcelona.

Who is to blame?

The Catalan media came to Naples with this complicated and contradictory mood, hoping to interview the two parties, Gao Shen and Guardiola.

But Gao Shen refused an interview with the Catalan media and pushed Guardiola out.

In an interview, Guardiola of course had a good word about Gao Shenshi, how he took care of him and so on.

These are the facts, and Guardiola didn't add fuel to it, but with his character, being able to say it is the best proof in itself. Gao Shen really took special care of him and taught him everything, not because he is a legendary Barcelona legend. Discrimination.

This makes the Catalan media even more uncomfortable.

Compliment him, I can't get over it.

Don't brag about it, I can't get over it in my heart.

Nima, they really want to ask Gao Shen, you are no longer in La Liga, why are you still giving us such a problem?

Guardiola also clarified his relationship with the Barcelona management, saying that when he first got his coaching certificate, vice-chairman Soriano and technical director Begiristan invited him to take up his post at Barcelona, but he said politely. declined.

"I hope to be exposed to more advanced and advanced tactical concepts and ideas. In Naples, I have learned a lot from the profound, not only in football, but also in management, interaction and other aspects."

"I think he's seriously underrated."

"I haven't personally experienced him at Real Madrid, but I think he's doing a very difficult but very great thing in Naples, I don't know how to say it, but I'm very, very looking forward to seeing Napoli In Serie A, in the Champions League, I think that day will come soon."

Guardiola's remarks really surprised the Catalan media.

They all know Guardiola's character and know that he's not the type to gossip.

He must have thought so when he said so.

Could it be that Gao Shen is really that strong?

The earliest from Valdano to Sacchi, and now even Bielsa and Guardiola are so sought after, what magic does he hide? How can these arrogant insiders be so admirable?

There is a saying that is right, the admiration from the opponent is always more convincing.

Gao Shen originally just wanted to sit down and realise his relationship with Guardiola's "master and apprentice"~www.mtlnovel.com~ Unexpectedly, the Catalan media reported that it has aroused the interest of more media, especially It's Spanish media.

You know, after he left Real Madrid's coaching position, although many people have disputes about his coaching in Serie B, reports have indeed become less and less.

But now, as soon as the Guardiola thing came out, the Spanish media immediately followed.

Whether it is the media or the fans, it was only at this time that they realized that they had really wronged Gao Shen at the beginning.

When he coached Naples, he really wanted to build a team of his own, and he really did that all the time. Otherwise, so many insiders would be blind?

What's so special about lofty Naples?

When the media reporters dug up, all the fans who didn't pay attention to B on weekdays suddenly became confused.

The Serie B league has so far, all wins, ten consecutive victories, topping the list!

Four consecutive victories in the Coppa Italia are overwhelming!

This record is outrageous!
