On February 9, 2008, in the twenty-fourth round of Serie B, Piacenza faced Brescia at home.

Before the game, the media and professionals' predictions of the outcome of both sides were more inclined to Piacenza, which had been undefeated for four rounds. However, this tendency changed after Liu Feng was announced not to play in this game.

A lot of changes.

Because Liu Feng's performance in the four games was so outstanding, people did not have an intuitive judgment on the strength of Piacenza without Liu Feng.

"Brescia has one of the best strikers in Serie B this season. In contrast, Piacenza's defense, which once conceded one of the top goals in the league, seems a bit weak."

Fabio was not optimistic about Piacenza after Liu Feng was absent from this game.

Originally, in his expectation, Piacenza and Brescia would have a goal battle, and the winning side would be the team that could score more goals. But in this game, Piacenza's team

The most popular shooter recently did not appear.

"However, Carney seems to have taken this situation into consideration, and he has made adjustments to the team's formation. In this game, the youngster Scarpelli, who was promoted to the first team at the end of last season, got the opportunity to start. We can look forward to it

Let’s take a look at this young player’s performance.”

While Fabio was doing pre-match warm-up analysis here, the players on the court had already finished warming up.

Following the head coach, the players from the two teams slowly walked into the stadium. As the home team, Piacenza received the warmest cheers from the home fans.

Obviously, after the start of the second half of the season, Piacenza's performance satisfied the fans, so now Piacenza's attendance has returned to a high level. Looking up at the red and white auditorium undulating like waves

Waves, players feel as if they have received extra bonuses.

The game started soon, and Brescia won the ball by guessing a coin. After serving, they quickly started the first wave of offense.

Brescia's double forwards are No. 9 Andre Caracciolo and No. 11 Ricardo Tade. These are two players who are in their prime years.

Chemical reactions continued to occur in several rounds of games, and there was considerable tacit understanding, which was the main source of Brescia's goals. The team's first wave of offense was launched with the two of them as the core.

On the court, after receiving Caracciolo's serve, Ricardo Tade distributed the ball to the team's right midfielder.

The right midfielder chose to move forward after getting the ball. When he passed the center circle and was about to face Piacenza's defender, he intended to pass the ball to Caracciolo, who had already approached from the center.

The excited Scarpelli observed the situation on the court, and then directly rushed forward to block Caracciolo and then tried to steal the ball. However, after Caracciolo's flexible staggered steps, he missed the ball.

Ricardo Tade passed through the space left by Scarpelli's miss, took the ball that was cleverly missed by his teammates, and then took a step directly to the right of the top of the arc in the penalty area and chose to hit the goal.

"boom!"

The ball hit the crossbar hard, making everyone in Piacenza feel heartbroken.

Just two inches away, Piacenza almost conceded the goal in less than five minutes of the game. This is not a good sign.

#########

The game was in full swing. Brescia's blow to the crossbar of Piacenza's goal at the beginning was like a charge horn, blowing the entire team's crazy rhythm of torturing their opponents.

Yes, devastation is the best way to describe it. Scarpelli, who was starting for the first time, met two of the most cunning and cunning opponents who were not weaker than him in physical fitness.

After several trials, Caracciolo and Riccardo Tardelli took advantage of Scarpelli's strength and inexperience to leverage Piacenza's entire defense. Next, Piacenza's goalkeeper

Became the busiest person.

"Unbelievable." Fabio looked at the score on the field with dumbfounded eyes. It was nearing the end of the first half. On the scoreboard, the home team Piacenza trailed its opponent with a huge disadvantage of 0:3.

Fabio thought that Piacenza might lose to Brescia, but he never imagined that he would be beaten directly by Brescia.

"Poor Scarpelli, I hope he won't be affected by this game."

Looking at the distraught Scarpelli on the court, Fabio spoke sympathetically: "Although his position has become Brescia's most offensive point, it is not entirely his fault. Obviously Brescia's head coach Cory

Nick developed this explosive tactic for the team early on."

In fact, on the competition field, there are many such breakthrough tactics that only target one position.

Specifically, the head coach will find the weakest or unstable point of the opponent in advance, and then let the team's players take turns to attack until the opponent's players cannot withstand the pressure and collapse.

This tactic is mostly used by wingers to attack full-backs, but obviously in this game, Brescia found that Scarpelli, who was starting for the first time, was very suitable for the execution of the tactic.

After being played or taken advantage of by opponents several times, which led to the team being in crisis and even conceding goals, Scarpelli's mentality collapsed.

His heart was suddenly filled with self-denial. The confidence he had built up in the reserve team seemed to have been shattered in this game. He suddenly found that he was far behind the real players.

The final result was that Scarpelli's condition worsened as he played. Brescia took advantage of this and scored three goals in succession after disrupting Piacenza's defense several times.

"Fuck!" Carney looked at the scene on the field and scolded the smug Colini: "This is really despicable!"

When he put Scarpelli into the starting lineup, Carney had the intention of paying some price to train this talented young defender. He even thought about it at the expense of the victory or defeat of one or two games.

.

But obviously, if the scenes on the field are allowed to continue, let alone training, Scarpelli may be eliminated directly.

Confidence is really important for a professional player, let alone at an age like Scarpelli's rapid growth. Now, Collini's tactics are obviously using the strength of all his players to defeat Scarpelli.

Cappelli is crushed.

Fortunately, the first half of the game ended before Scarpelli gave up completely.

Ignoring the head coach who came over and his teammates who wanted to say something to him, Scarpelli walked back to the locker room without saying a word.

In the stands, Liu Feng frowned and looked at Scarpelli's expression. He suddenly had a very bad feeling. Looking at his friend, whom he had known since he first arrived in Italy, he felt that he should do something.

What.

"Yuan Xiao, I'm going to the locker room."

Passing the scarf in his hand to Yuan Xiao who came from Milan specially, Liu Feng said apologetically: "There is something wrong with El's condition, I am a little worried."

Yuan Xiao naturally understood Liu Feng's emotions. Needless to say, Liu Feng was a good friend of Scarpelli, and even a fan watching the game could tell that Scarpelli had been severely hit.

"Go, go, I'll wait for you here."

"Uh-huh."
