Chapter 24 Training Match

First of all, the starting players continued the 4-3-2-1 formation used in the previous game, and more than half of them were new players this season.

The goalkeeper is Matteo Serreni, who just arrived on a free transfer from Lazio this year.

The central defender is partnered by Paulo de la Fiore, who is on loan from Palermo, and Cesare Natali, who was introduced from Udinese for 350 million euros.

Left back Salvatore Lanna and right back Gianluca Comotto lined up on both sides.

The three midfielders are the Australian Vincenzo Gleira who joined the team on a free transfer from Parma, the visa-free 37-year-old veteran Eugenio Corini and Simone Barone.

In the attacking midfielder or attacking midfield position, there are Alessandro Rossina, who has scored two goals in the league, and Recoba, who is on loan from Inter Milan. The two of them can be said to be relatively strong in the current team. Two people.

The striker changed from Bjeranovic to Nikola Ventola. It may be that he failed to score a goal in the last two starts and lost the trust of the head coach, although Ventola has only scored one goal so far.

The substitute side is a 4-4-2 parallel formation.

The goalkeeper here is Alberto Maria Fontana, left back Matteo Rubin, center back Marco Di Loreto and black center back Obonna, right back is on loan from Udinese Marco Mota.

The four midfielders from left to right are Nicola Lazetic, David Botone, Paulo Zanetti, who came from Ascre for 190 million euros, and Tommaso Varatti.

Of course, don't think about it too much. Of course, this Zanetti has nothing to do with the legend of Inter Milan. He is just an ordinary Italian player.

Double forwards Bjeranovic and Zhu Hantao.

Di Michele, who was introduced at a high price, is still unable to play during the suspension period, so the coach simply asked him to watch.

The team's Japanese striker, Masashi Black, didn't even make it to the substitute side because of Zhu Hantao's arrival.

Daikoku Masashi did not go well after he came to Turin. After the end of this season, he will return to Japan without any achievements.

Zhu Hantao ignored the unwilling gaze from the Japanese striker, and observed his teammates and the main lineup wearing yellow vests on the opposite side.

Obviously, the strength of the opposing side is a bit higher than theirs. Compared with the current two forwards in the team, Ventura is relatively mediocre, and there is nothing outstanding, while the Croatian Bijeranovic belongs to the old-school center who is tall, strong and good at heading.

Both of them have been in Serie A for many years, and it is considered very good to score ten goals and eight goals in a season.

However, compared with them, Zhu Hantao is definitely not as strong as his header. If he is worse than them in speed shooting, he is actually not so strong.

More of it is that they are young and aggressive, more active and willing to run on the court, and Zhu Hantao's desire for goals and desire to win are much stronger than them.

At this time, Coach Walter just wanted Zhu Hantao to bring some fresh energy to the first team, so that the "old men" in the first team could be a little more excited during the game.

The stronger main side of the training match had the absolute upper hand from the very beginning. Recoba and Rosina sent several excellent passes to Ventola. Unfortunately, the Italian striker failed to grasp a single opportunity.

The head coach who watched was shaking his head on the sidelines. What the hell is this? He couldn't score in training. Can he still score in the game?Even if it's just ordinary training, you have to be serious.

In the other half, Zhu Hantao felt helpless when he saw the turmoil in front of his own goal. The substitute team didn't attack the ball more than half the time, and there was still a gap in strength.

The yellow vests were attacking again. The Chinese boy Recoba dribbled the ball to the left and easily passed Zanetti, and then sent the ball forward.

Ventola, the single arrow in front, received the ball, but was firmly watched by the young black central defender Aubangna on the side of the bench. He had no choice but to return the ball to Rosina.

Rosina's technique is good and fast, and he broke through the defensive line with one acceleration. The two central defenders looked at Ventola and Recoba. He threw off the substitute left back Matteo Rubin on the right side and cut inside.

Rosina, who is left-footed, hit the goal with no defense on the right side of the penalty area. The football flew across a beautiful arc and flew into the goal like a rainbow.

Goalkeeper Fontana jumped into the air and tried his best to save the ball. His fingertips touched the ball but it still failed to change the result of the football hitting the net.

Seeing this goal, Novellino finally looked better. Rosina still knows how to trust him. At present, two and one-third of the team's six goals are scored by him.

Except for the goalkeeper who was a little annoyed, the rest of the substitutes seemed to have nothing to do with them and didn't respond. That's right, they are usually not able to play, and if they lose the ball in the training game, they lose the ball. They are not as good as the opponent.

Bijellanovic kicked off the ball, midfielder Botone took control of the ball, Zhu Hantao ran forward with all his strength, and before running a few steps, Botone's ball was intercepted by Eugenio Corini.

The 37-year-old veteran Eugenio Corini previously played for Palermo Football Club, and then this summer Palermo felt that he was a bit old and did not renew his contract when the contract expired, so he was signed by the Turin team for free.

Unexpectedly, he was really old and strong. Coach Walter let him play the main force, and his performance was quite satisfactory.

Speaking of age, Zhu Hantao wants to complain about the employment of head coach Valter Novellino. Perhaps experienced veterans are sometimes more stable and reliable, but his starting age is nearly 30 years old. Is there really no problem?
At this moment, the main team attacked Zhu Hantao's penalty area again. With Ventola's shot wide of the goal, the attack came to an end.

Alberto Fontana was not in a hurry to take the goal kick, and waved his hand to signal his teammates to press forward to defend in his own half. Only when the offense puts pressure on the opponent can the defensive pressure on his side be relieved.

Zhu Hantao was sticking to the opponent's center back line, while Bijelanovic was trotting forward slowly and unhurriedly. Maybe one day Zhu Hantao would have to learn from them how to save energy?

Fontana drove the football to the frontcourt with big feet, Bijellanovic did his part and grabbed the first point. Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted Zhu Hantao, who was waiting for an opportunity, and headed forward.

Zhu Hantao rushed out from the gap between the two central defenders. Bijellanovic's header passed directly in front of Zhu Hantao, and he easily got the ball.

Taking a big step, Zhu Hantao dribbled the ball into the penalty area, the main goalkeeper Matteo Sereni made a decisive attack, Zhu Hantao didn't panic at all, smashed the ball to the right and passed the goalkeeper, and the goal was empty!Push with left foot!Everyone on the field watched the ball roll into the goal on the grass.

At this time, the defensive players of the main team were still complaining to the assistant coach Giuseppe who was acting as the referee, saying that Zhu Hantao's offside ball could not be counted.

Giuseppe saw it clearly, Bijellanovic headed the football and Zhu Hantao was onside with his quick start.

There was no other way, the main force was scored by a substitute, the offensive players in the frontcourt were fine, but the defensive players in the backcourt, especially the two central defenders who missed Zhu Hantao and the goalkeeper who was passed by, looked bad.

The team coach Valter Novellino was a little surprised. He asked the offensive coach Ferrero next to him, "Zhu's left foot can also hit the goal? Isn't he a right-footed player?"

Of course, Ferrero didn't know, and shook his head, "Except for two headers in the youth team, he scored with his right foot. The difficulty of the shot just now doesn't mean that his left foot can play well in the game."

Walter didn't listen too carefully, thought for a while, and stopped the game, "Ventola and Barone, you two take off your yellow vests and come over here, Zhu and Bijelanovic, put on your yellow vests and join the other side."

Ventola and Barone were unbelievable. Although Ventola was originally a rotation player who wandered between starting and substituting, the coach obviously wanted Bijellanovic and the new kid to play double forwards instead of himself.

Barone is even more puzzled. He hasn't left the starting list in the four games so far this season. What is the head coach thinking?

"Hurry up, don't waste time!" The head coach doesn't care what they think, if he doesn't find a way to improve his performance, his life will be difficult.

At the urging of Novellino, the four changed their clothes and returned to the court, and the formations on both sides were also exchanged.

The main team changed to 4-4-2, with Zhu Hantao and Bjeranovic as two forwards, Recoba and Rosina on the left and one on the right, the Australian midfielder Vincenzo Glera was in charge of defense, and Eugenio Corini took more responsibility for the offensive organization.

Glera successfully steals the ball and gives it to Corini.

Bijellanovic headed the goal from the center!Saved by Fontana, and more!Zhu Hantao made a follow-up shot!The ball went in!

Rosina breaks through with the ball and passes!Pass to the middle!Zhu Hantao volleyed and scored!

Zhu Hantao scored two goals in a row. The players on the field were all a little surprised by his performance. The head coach Walter secretly clenched his fists, yes!This effect was what he wanted, and Zhu Hantao did not disappoint him.

Finally, before the end of the training match, because Zhu Hantao attracted the attention of too many defensive players, the unmarked Bijellanovic also successfully scored a goal.

Recoba came over to find Zhu Hantao with a smile on his face, "Not bad, young man." As he said that, he hammered Zhu Hantao's chest, "It's quite strong, I like you, keep going."

Because Recoba himself is not from the Torino team, and he has no friendship with those other players. When he saw a young player with strength and energy, he had a good impression, so he took the initiative to come and talk to Zhu Hantao.

"Thank you." Facing the senior's sudden overture, Zhu Hantao smiled cautiously.

Recoba didn't take it seriously either, and reached out to stroke Zhu Hantao's hair with a smile.

At this time, Rosina also came over, "That goal is beautiful, Zhu, but the pass I gave you is not bad, right?"

Is this the world of adults, are they all so familiar?In his previous life, Zhu Hantao was reborn not long after he entered the society. To be honest, he was still not used to it.

He could only reply with a smile: "Your pass is great, and I shoot very comfortably."

"Hahahaha, just kidding, it's not easy for ordinary people to catch the ball and shoot. I really can't see that you still have this skill." Rosina simply thought that if the team had an extra scoring point like Zhu Hantao, the game might be easier and the results could be better than now.
