On the verge of day, Piacenza's entire team gathered at the club, then boarded the team's bus and set off with the farewell of fans who could not follow the team's expedition.

Catania, the second largest city in Sicily in southern Italy, is the only Class A football club in the city, so it also carries the greatest expectations of the city's fans. From the moment the bus in Piacenza entered Catania, they received a "warm" welcome from the fans of the street two sets.

"Wow, this group of fans is really crazy."

Looking at the Catania fans who were demonstrating to him outside the car window, the players in the car seemed quite surprised. Before they came here, Catania had always been a weak team in their consciousness, but now it is obviously a little different.

"I must cheer me up later on the game!"

Conte also frowned when he looked at Catania's fans. Generally speaking, the atmosphere of a team's fans can reflect a team's recent state to a certain extent. Although Catania lost to Sampdoria in the last round of the league, it was away. In fact, Catania's winning rate at home this season is quite high.

This small club, which fights for relegation every season, obviously understands the importance of pleaseing fans, so they can always burst out with super-level strength in front of their own fans, which makes Conte even more doubtful about the direction of this game. He is a little worried about whether the team will collapse.

“Okay boss!”

The players in the car didn't have such an idea. The players who got the chance to play were very excited at the moment. All they were thinking about was proving themselves in this game rather than whether they would collapse.

"Yeah." Conte naturally would not dampen the morale of the team members at this time. He nodded and sat back in his position.

"CCTV, CCTV, Hello everyone, I am Liu Jianhong!"

As the bus drove into the Massimono Stadium, the league was about to start, and Central Station 5 has also put the scene of the stadium in the commentary room. Liu Jianhong, who was the commentator of the Piacenza game, sat in the commentary room and took on the task of hot field.

"This game will officially start at 1:00 am Beijing time. Now everyone is seeing the warm-up teams of the two teams."

After arriving, Piacenza quickly began to take a walk. Under Conte's leadership, every player was very serious. Although according to the pre-match media broadcast and the information collected, Catania was a weak team, Piacenza itself was not a strong team. After all, they were still in Serie B last season.

Therefore, it is impossible for the players to underestimate the enemy like some giant teams, not to mention that the team played in this game with a semi-main lineup.

In short, in the pre-match warm-up shots, both Catania and Piacenza showed a very serious attitude.

With the completion of the field, Conte gave the team his last tactical speech in the locker room. Liu Feng has also handed the captain's armband to the team's second captain Maurantano. The club's old player will serve as the team's on-court captain in this game.

"Okay, this is the specific tactic, you must have understood it too." Conte said the last arrangement and threw the pen in his hand aside and clapped his hands: "I think you understand what this game means, so go and do it!"

"roar!"

The team members in the locker room roared together and walked out of the locker room under the leadership of Maurantano.

"Now the two teams are standing on the court, and the visiting team Piacenza has chosen the kick-off."

As the two teams gathered on the court, Liu Jianhong's eyes also fell in the game with the audience in front of the TV: "The lineup sent by Piacenza this time is mainly based on substitutes, obviously to prepare for the next game against Juventus."

On the court, as Cassia pushed the ball to Flokari opposite him, the game finally kicked off.

Piacenza chose to stabilize the situation at the beginning. Flocari pushed the ball to Padalino in the midfield after getting the ball. Padalino turned directly and passed the ball to the team's backcourt organization Marchisio, and Marchisio began to dispatch the ball to his home midfield and backcourt.

The formation adopted by Catania in this game was 433. The most well-known Chinese on the team's forward line is the young forward Takasin Morimoto from Japan. This 20-year-old Japanese genius was officially introduced by Catania last season and scored a goal for the team in fourteen games.

This has made domestic fans envious. Of course, after Liu Feng directly caused a storm in Serie A this season, this envy disappeared.

Since the start of this season, Takayuki Morimoto has clearly found his form in the game. He has scored four goals in the thirteenth round of the game. This efficiency is already a very good result among ordinary Serie A strikers.

Before this round of competition, many Asian reporters reported Liu Feng and Takasinra Morimoto in a targeted manner. Some Japanese media also compared this round of competition to an Asian derby in Serie A. They are obviously very optimistic about their own geniuses.

However, this wave of comparison has not caused much storm in China. Sports Weekly only did one thing, which made the fans lose the intention of comparing this so-called Japanese genius with Liu Feng: "Sports Weekly released the data of Morimoto Takashi and Liu Feng's Serie A League intact."

The data of the two people is not the same as heavyweight. In front of Liu Feng, Kishin Morimoto's data is not enough to see. Domestic fans expressed their disdain for Japanese overseas players for the first time in many years: What's the matter? Compare with our A Feng!

Therefore, the popularity of this comparison in China has not been stirred up at all. When Piacenza announced that Liu Feng would sit on the bench in this round of the league, this comparison completely stopped.

Yes, not only the Chinese media have no interest in reporting on Takasin Morimoto, but Conte did not take the young forward player who also came from Asia in his heart. In his heart, Liu Feng and Takasin Morimoto were not of the same level, and even Cassia was not as good as Cassia.

This is true. In the past thirty minutes after the opening, Takasin Morimoto was almost autistic by two substitute central defenders, while Cassia and Flokari kept causing trouble for Catania after the opening.

In this game, Piacenza's substitutes all played 100,000 yuan, and they played comparable to Catania for a time, and even had the advantage in the field for a while, which made Conte, who was standing in the sidelines, quite satisfied.

In the 35th minute of the first half of the game, the team seized the opportunity to take the lead.
Chapter completed!
