Chapter 280： play off

After a 2-1 comeback against Inter Milan, Napoli's momentum reached its peak.

On the court, everyone held back their energy and continued to put pressure on Inter Milan, pressing for them and attacking them, which brought enormous pressure to Inter Milan.

There is one statistic that best reflects the performance on the court.

That is, starting from the 80th minute, Napoli has a shot every two minutes.

This is equivalent to saying that Inter Milan's defense line has been completely defeated, and it is useless!

In the end, Mancini had to make a quick substitution, taking Cruz and replacing Burdisso.

Yes, he continued to strengthen the team's defense.

Obviously, Mancini is very worried that his team can't hold it at all.

Facts have also proved that his worries are not completely unreasonable, because after Inter Milan made a substitution, the situation is still precarious, the front of the goal is still in the wind, and Napoli's performance is still getting more and more vigorous.

Especially when Gao Shen replaced Di Maria with Callejon and continued to strengthen the offensive, Naples showed a determination and fighting spirit that they would never look back if they did not score a goal.

But no one expected that when Napoli's morale reached its peak in the 91st minute of the game, the players suddenly made a fatal mistake.

David Luiz didn't know if he was overheated. When he received a return pass from a teammate, he chose to dribble the ball forward.

This is actually nothing, his footwork is very good, his technique is very good, and it is normal to dribble the ball forward.

But this time is different.

After Stankovic was close to him, he did not choose to pass the ball, but wanted to pass Stankovic.

As a result, the person passed, but the ball was broken.

After Stankovic successfully intercepted the ball, he quickly passed the ball forward and handed it to Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

The Swedish center, who did not perform much the whole game, forcibly pushed Bonucci away with his body after catching the ball, and dashed the ball into the penalty area of ​​Naples. When facing the attacking goalkeeper Handanovic, he decisively started. Feet shot.

Thunderous cheers erupted from the entire Meazza Stadium!

Everyone in the audience was shouting Ibrahimovic's name.

Two to two!

Inter Milan equalized the score!

…

Gao Shen was stunned.

He had already seen victory beckoning ahead, but it turned into a mirage!

"Is his brain broken?" Gao Shen was mad!

For such a mistake, he really has nothing to do.

Unless, he doesn't use this player.

Not only him, everyone in the Naples coaching staff, and even all the players on the pitch, were stunned.

Even David Lewis himself stayed where he was, not knowing what to do with himself.

The head coach carefully planned and prepared for a week; more than a dozen players did everything on the court, and finally came to a good situation; there are countless Naples fans waiting in front of the Naples TV...

All of this collapsed because of one mistake!

"He... he's probably too brainy?" Lucas said with a wry smile.

He had the best relationship with David Luiz, but he still couldn't accept such a mistake.

It's so low-level!

You are a central defender. Usually, you are allowed to dribble the ball, pass the ball, and even play as a striker. That is what the team needs. How can you play such a big game at a critical moment?

Still thinking about people?

Why don't you go to heaven?

Lucas looked at Gao Shen secretly, and found that the latter was too angry to speak.

He wanted to say a few words for David Lewis, but couldn't say anything.

This **** guy, finally got rid of it!

…

Amid the cheers of Inter Milan fans, Naples quietly exited the field.

All the players drooped their heads, as if they had lost a kick.

On the other hand, in the stands at San Siro, the fans of Inter Milan were very excited, and the mood of the players improved significantly.

This is the difference in expectations.

If it was before the game, who said that after Inter Milan drew with Naples, the fans would be elated, they would definitely be laughed at and sprayed to death by the media, because their only thought at that time was to win, even a big victory.

But now, they are really excited to keep their home unbeaten.

Especially when they were 1-2 behind, the equalizer made them even more delighted.

Naples, on the other hand, is like a lost rooster.

Gao Shen entered the silent locker room angrily. The movement immediately made all the players in the locker room stunned, and at the same time, they also felt fear.

They have never seen Gao Shen look like this!

For a long time, in the minds of Naples players, Gao Shen has always been synonymous with kindness. He has punished players a lot, but it has never looked like he wants to eat people.

I saw that after he entered the locker room, he directly ignored the others, and his eyes fell directly on David Lewis.

Brazil's explosive head is too eye-catching.

"Tell me, David, why?" asked in a deep voice.

David Luiz looked at the head coach timidly, his eyes full of remorse and guilt.

He really didn't know what to say.

But Gao Shen didn't let him go because of this.

"We have dozens of people up and down the team. From last season to now, we prepared carefully a week ago. We stayed up a few nights. All the players did their best on the court. Now because of one of your mistakes , ruined everything, tell me, why?"

When Gao Shen said the end, he almost shouted.

Everyone in the locker room was silent, and they didn't even dare to breathe hard.

Everyone stared at Gao Shen, who was furious. They couldn't help but remember what Lucas once told them: when he was at Real Madrid, Gao Shen trained Zidane and Ronaldo and other superstars to dare not look up.

At the time, all of them didn't believe it, but now, they have experienced it for themselves.

The more kind people are on weekdays, the more awe-inspiring they are when they get angry.

David Lewis felt very guilty. He almost wrote self-blame on his face. After hearing the deep roar, he wanted to open his mouth to say something several times, but every time he couldn't.

In the end, the Brazilian only said one sentence: "I'm sorry, boss!"

"Don't say sorry to me! Don't say sorry! If I'm sorry is useful, we won't be at peace! You won't make the same problem again and again!"

"I warn you, David, my patience is limited, if you think we can't do this team without you, if you don't try to change yourself, then I'm sorry, neither I nor Napoli need that. player!"

After speaking, Gao Shen turned around and left, leaving everyone in the locker room behind, dumbfounded.

Especially David Lewis.

It's not that he has made mistakes, but this is the first time that Gao Shen has scolded him like this in public, and even scolded him so harshly.

He was afraid!

All of them are afraid!

The Napoli players knew for a long time that Gao Shen was eager to beat Inter Milan away, so they could imagine his disappointment, anger and dissatisfaction at this moment, but they didn't expect that he would say so harshly.

…

Not only did the players not understand, but even Carlo and Lucas were very puzzled.

"Didn't you just say that a draw is not bad?" Lucas couldn't believe it.

After Gao Shen entered the locker room, it was like a different person, especially when he scolded David Luiz, he was like a tyrant, not to mention the players, Carlo and Lucas were all scared.

"Yes, a draw is also good, but David Lewis must be scolded." Gao Shen replied lightly.

"You're not angry?" Carlo was a little surprised.

Gao Shen snorted, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "A good acting?"

"I can get an Oscar!" Lucas said angrily, he was really frightened.

"David Luiz has all the attributes of a top centre-back, body, speed, flexibility, technique, even passing awareness and big picture, he's really good and has a lot of potential, but if some of his faults don't If he changes it as soon as possible, his future achievements will be very limited!"

Carlo, Lucas and others fell into deep thought.

They understood.

The harder Gao Shen scolded, it just proved that he was more optimistic about David Lewis and full of expectations.

"But you really scared him just now." Lucas smiled bitterly.

Gao Shen nodded, "It's best to be frightened, let him reflect on his own, this kind of thing can only be helped by him if he wants to understand it himself and if he wants to change it, otherwise..."

A head coach is never omnipotent.

Not every potential player will be able to shine in the hands of a coach who is good at cultivating players.

There are a lot of very complex factors involved.

Therefore, to a certain extent, youth training has always been a high-risk industry, and cultivating young players has always been a high-risk thing, such as Real Madrid, Inter Milan, Barcelona and other giants, they are more inclined to buy that kind of business. Mature or near-mature players.

Even if they spend a lot of money for this, they don't care.

For example, Kaka, Real Madrid really looked down on Kaka back then?

Not necessarily.

The key is that Kaka was too young at the time, and he may not be able to adapt to European football, so Real Madrid was reluctant to buy him at a low price, but let him go to other teams to experience. After he played, the better his performance, the more willing Real Madrid was to pay. money.

This is the business case between Real Madrid and Florentino.

It's also the reason why AC Milan would rather introduce a lot of veteran players than spend the same price to dig out the Mavericks.

And Gao Shen really hopes that David Lewis can change.

"Remember, let him figure it out for himself, none of you are allowed to reveal a word." Gao Shen solemnly urged.

Carlo, Lucas and the others all nodded.

"where are you going?"

Seeing Gao Shen walking forward, Lucas blurted out.

Gao Shen stopped, turned around, and said with a smile, "Go to the press conference hall, how about you go for me?"

Lucas shook his head like a rattle in fright. He couldn't help thinking of the poor press conference tool at Real Madrid.

Is this what people do?

Whoever likes to do it can do it!

"You have to be careful, they are all waiting for you!" Carlo reminded.

Gao Shen nodded and said, "My player, I will shut the door and scold myself. I can scold me to death, but outsiders... hum..."

As soon as the voice fell, Gao Shen had already gone far.

Carlo, Lucas and the others looked at each other and smiled.

Gao Shen is actually very protective of his shortcomings.
