Chapter 40: Take the lead

At the same time, standing on the sidelines to observe the situation, the head coaches of the two teams had different expressions.

Turin's head coach Lerda looked very calm and calm. However, Novara's head coach Texel frowned.

Not long after the opening, Tesar felt a little uneasy. Because the Bulls on the field had a drastic change from the previous few games, completely different from what he expected before the game.

In the past, the Bulls' offense was centered on the number one star Bianchi. In order to play his powerful shooter, the Bulls often choose the tactical style of flying wings in the game, with two excellent wing players constantly making goals for Bianchi. Bianchi's task is to resist the opponent's central defender in the middle of the penalty area and score the football in a way that grabs the points.

This is the offensive routine that the Bulls are accustomed to. Due to Bianchi's super personal ability, this tactic seems simple, but it is extremely practical. Before the game, Texel made detailed tactical arrangements specifically for the Turin team's tactics.

However, in this game, the Bulls suddenly changed their habitual style of play!

The Bulls' formation in this game is still the 4231 used by Lerda. Bianchi broke into the front, and three offensive players supported him. However, today's Torino team significantly strengthened dribbling and short passes, and the four-man in the frontcourt frequently made small-scale passes.

In the past, both wingers would habitually draw edges, but today they both began to cut in frequently; in the past, Bianchi was standing in the hinterland of the penalty area, but today they frequently retreated to respond; in addition, the Bulls also changed a front midfielder to play. Lazarevic, who plays as a front midfielder today, obviously has better personal skills and often dribbles the ball on the edge of the penalty area.

The sudden change in this tactical style gives people the feeling that a burly man no longer plays boxing and suddenly starts to change his career and learn embroidery!

Although the Torino team played a little awkwardly, Novara felt even more awkward. Although the Bulls' short pass cooperation was a bit unfamiliar, his frontcourt players had strong personal abilities, and it was no problem to play small skills. Novara's backcourt was overwhelmed for a moment.

Soon, in a defense, Novara's players pushed Bianchi who was receiving the ball from behind. The referee was very careful and decisively awarded a free kick!

"This free kick is in a very good position, just around the top of the penalty area, about 25 meters away from the goal. This will be an excellent opportunity for the Bulls, because there is a player in the Turin formation who is very good at direct free kicks, Chu Jiang!"

"Before the game, Novara's goalkeeper Uykani once threatened to save Chu Jiang's free kick, and also caught the air defense left by him because of his free kick, and launched a quick counterattack. I wonder if Chu Jiang would worry about it..."

"Oh, no! We have seen Chu Jiang running towards the frontcourt! Obviously, he did not receive any interference from his opponent and still decided to take the set ball personally! Chu Jiang, who made four free throws before, can continue his magical performance today? I can't wait to see it!"

The commentator at the scene kept explaining the situation on the field.

With his words, the attention of the 25,000 fans at the scene focused on Chu Jiang. While everyone was watching, Chu Jiang did not show any timidity at all. He ran slowly at the free throw point, his pace was consistent.

"But with this calm demeanor, this player is not simple. Corso, you have a good vision!"

In the stands, a middle-aged man with a bald hair smiled at Corso beside him.

"Contratto, keep reading. You will find that Chu is definitely an extraordinary player, no worse than any of your players!" Corso said with a calm expression.

"Oh?" The man named Contrado showed a curious expression. "Corso, you are not talking big, right? You know, my players are all good seedlings of Italy's future, and everyone has a bright future!"

Although what Contrado said is a bit exaggerated, it is basically in line with the facts. He is a football agent. Under his leadership, there are young goalkeepers Emiliano and Viviano at the Italian goal-level, as well as the Italian national youth team captain David and Thornton, as well as the main scorers of the Italian national youth team, Matia and Destro (destro)... These people are all famous and are regarded by Italian fans as the hope for the future of their own football.

Due to his good relationship with Inter Milan Club, most of Contrado's players are from Inter Milan. It is precisely because of this that he maintains a good personal relationship with Inter Milan scout Corso.

Some time ago, Chu Jiang contacted Corso, hoping to let him be Chu Jiang's agent. However, Corso politely refused. Because Corso did not have the qualifications to be a football agent. Moreover, because he was old, the legal knowledge about football contracts seemed very numerous, and Corso was not interested in that.

Although Corso rejected Chu Jiang's invitation, he still remembered Chu Jiang's intention to find an agent. After some consideration, Corso decided to introduce his friend Contrado to Chu Jiang. However, as a senior agent, Contrado has certain requirements for the strength of his contracted players. Therefore, today the two came to the Olympic Stadium together to watch the focus of Serie B.

This focus battle attracted not only Corso, but also Pagano from Chivo, as well as Serie A team Palermo and Juventus scouts were on the scene, paying close attention to Chu Jiang.

Seeing Chu Jiang standing in front of the free throw point, Uykani couldn't help but feel a little nervous. The more he knew this oriental boy, the less confident he was to deal with him. He was so strong!

Uykani shouted loudly, constantly directing his teammates to line up the walls. He wanted this way to relieve the tension in his heart.

At this time, Chu Jiang felt very calm.

No matter how free kicks are arranged in this position, they will leave an opportunity to take advantage of. He only needs to wait calmly and wait for the referee's whistle to blow.

Looking at Uykani's anxious look, Chu Jiang couldn't help but have a prank idea from his heart.

"If I asked the captain to go to the wall with the other party, I wonder if the other party's door would be anxious to scratch the wall?" Chu Jiang smiled and looked at Bianqi standing at the front of the small penalty area. However, he soon shook his head and put this somewhat boring idea behind his mind.

Chu Jiang disdains to use fancy tricks for free kicks at this position.

Chu Jiang's movement of shaking his head fell into Uykani's eyes, which made him even more nervous. He thought Chu Jiang was mocking others for not being well-arranged...

Soon, the referee's whistle sounded, and Uykani quickly stood on the goal line, bent down, and stared nervously in Chu Jiang's direction. However, due to the obstacles of the human wall, he could not clearly observe Chu Jiang.

"Bang!"

With a loud noise, the Novara players who lined up the walls quickly jumped up. Almost as the walls jumped up, Uykani finally saw the black and white elf.

"not good!"

The football happened to pass through the heads of two Novara defensive players and ran towards the right post of the goal.

Uykani had almost no time to run, so he could only choose to jump on the ground as soon as possible, stretching out his arms with all his strength, praying that he could touch the ball!

Unfortunately, although he had opened his arms to the greatest extent, he still did not touch the football.

"It's lost, damn!"

Uykani fell on the lawn and looked back at the goal behind him. Inside, a black and white elf was indeed lying there. The mottled stripes were intertwined, as if a wrinkled smiley face was mocking Uykani's incompetence!

Snap the football out of the net, and Uykani threw it out hard. Looking up, Chu Jiang happened to look at him, stretching out a finger, as if telling him, "This is the first ball! This is just the beginning!"

"So arrogant!" Uykani was both angry and helpless.

1:0! Just 5 minutes later, Chu Jiang helped the Bulls take the lead in gaining the advantage of the derby!

"Chu!"

"Chu!"

"Chu!"

The fans at the scene shouted Chu Jiang's name in unison and cheered for the hero in their minds.

"This is a wonderful free kick, and goalkeeper Uykani has no choice but to do so. Faced with such a goal, we can only sigh, what an outstanding free thrower this is! After scoring this goal, Chu has scored 5 direct free kicks in a row, what an incredible thing this is!"

"At the same time, with the goal here, Chu has scored 4 goals in the league! In the league's scorer list, he has tied the Novara player Bertani and tied for the league's best scorer! A goalkeeper has become the best scorer, my god, who can tell me what happened! This world is so crazy!"

The commentator Berley continued his passionate commentary.

"This free kick was taken really well!" Contrado praised.

"For Chu, this is very simple!" Corso smiled.

"Chu's free kick is still so amazing!" Looking at Chu Jiang who was celebrating the goal, Pagano's face was filled with a smile.

At the same time, scouts from Palermo and Juventus are nervously recording something...

Seeing that the team was behind so quickly, Texel couldn't help but smile bitterly. Looking at Chu Jiang who was rushing to celebrate, he couldn't help but feel some envy in his heart.
