Chapter 25 Parma

Zhu Hantao's first week in the first team has passed in a blink of an eye, and the Torino team is about to usher in the fifth round of the Italian Serie A, an away game against Parma.

在一天的训练当中，主教练瓦尔特诺维利诺尝试调整了很多次阵容，阵形主要就在他前几场比较常用的4-4-2和4-3-2-1当中变化。

The changes in the players are concentrated in the frontcourt. Ventola, Bijellanovic and Zhu Hantao have tried all the combinations of single forwards and two-two combinations.

Due to the short time and the fact that Zhu Hantao's arrival actually brought a certain sense of crisis to the two veterans, their attitudes in training were obviously much more positive than before, so no combination seemed to stand out more than the others.

But this has achieved Novellino's goal. Seeing that Ventola, an old fritter, has changed his previous lazy and not serious training attitude, assistant coach Giuseppe also had to clap his hands and praise the head coach for his cleverness.

"So Walter, did you expect it? Bringing Zhu up will have this effect?" Giuseppe Degradi asked the head coach at the last coaching staff meeting before the next round.

"That's right, I just expected Zhu's arrival to bring something different to the first team, but I didn't expect his effect to be so good." Novellino shook his head and looked proud.

"Judging from today's training, Zhu is the most serious in training as always, and the state of Ventola and Bijellanovic has also improved. However, the combination that performed best in the training game is the double striker formed by Bijellanovic and Zhu."

The offensive coach looked at the data in his hand and analyzed.

"What do you guys think of putting Zhu on the big list?" Valter Novellino had some ideas, but he still asked his assistants for their opinions.

"I don't think it's a problem. Zhu's activeness in training put pressure on them. That made Zhu enter the squad. Maybe he can also put pressure on them in the game so that they can perform better." Offensive coach Ferrero agreed with both hands.

However, Giuseppe, the assistant coach who has always been optimistic about Zhu Hantao, hesitated, "Could it be too early..."

But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Walter, "It's okay, it's not that he's starting the game, so he won't be under too much pressure."

The head coach said so clearly, what else can others say, "That's right, let Zhu feel the atmosphere of the Serie A game earlier."

"Then the starting lineup for this game..."

……

The day before the game, the head coach announced the starting lineup for this game, which continued the starting lineup of the previous game, and only adjusted one position. The left back Salvatore Lanna seemed to be in poor health, and the teenager Matteo Rubin took his place.

The rest of the list of players who went with the team did not surprise anyone. The Japanese striker was squeezed out of the squad by Zhu Hantao, but Zhu Hantao's strength and state are obvious to all, and there is nothing to question.

If anyone is dissatisfied, there are only one and a half people. Although Dahei Jiangzhi knows that he will not have any chance even if he is on the bench, he still feels unhappy that the coach chose a teenage boy instead of himself.

The other half is of course the forward Ventola, who also entered the squad. He is currently the most dangerous person in the team. Although he is far better than Zhu Hantao in terms of experience, he is not weaker than Zhu Hantao technically, but Zhu Hantao has a fighting spirit that he has not seen in many years.

Only Zhu Hantao himself was the most surprised that he was able to enter the squad. He only came to the first team for a week and he is the youngest young player. However, he will not be afraid if he is given a chance to play, and he will try his best to perform well.

Turin is more than 200 kilometers away from Parma, and the journey takes less than three hours.

In addition to the 18 starters and substitute players, there are also a few players who also go away with the bus. Why, because it is necessary to prevent emergencies that may occur at any time.

If you don't bring a few more people, if someone is accidentally injured during the pre-match training, then the substitute list will not be complete.

No one was sitting with Zhu Hantao in the car, so he was happy and quiet. He closed his eyes and rested his mind for a while, but then he was really bored, took out the nds from his backpack, and played with Pokemon for a while.

Speaking of tomorrow's opponent, the Parma club is also a very interesting team.

Founded in 1913, this Italian football club has a long history, just like its name, located in the city of Parma.

Not to mention too long ago, Crespo, Cannavaro, Divayo, Buffon, Thuram and other well-known stars have played for this team.

It is worth mentioning that in the summer of 2001, Parma bought Japanese star Hidetoshi Nakata for £1850 million, making him the most expensive Asian player at that time.

But just next year, Parma was relegated from Serie A for the first time in history. A few years later, the Parma club, which had just celebrated the club's centenary, fell into a financial crisis and was still unoccupied before the stipulated date. It finally declared bankruptcy and liquidation, and was subsequently relegated to the amateur league.

Then the new Parma club has been upgraded for several years and successfully returned to Serie A, which is also a good story.

In the car, Zhu Hantao hadn't finished playing a gym, and he arrived in Palma City.

Parma is a city in the Emilia-Romagna region of northern Italy, the capital of the province of Parma, located on the southern edge of the Po River Plain, yes, the Po River that also flows through the city of Turin.

Here is famous for its food, Parma cheese and Parma ham attract diners from all over the world with its unique flavor.

The origin of Parma ham is the southern mountainous area of ​​Parma province. It is the most famous raw ham in the world. Its color is tender red, like a pink rose, the fat is evenly distributed, and the taste is the softest among all kinds of ham. Therefore, authentic Italian restaurants have it.

Whether it can provide high-quality Parma ham has almost become the standard for evaluating the quality of an Italian restaurant.

The historic city of Parma was built in 183 BC, and the city is still full of buildings from various historical periods in Italy.These buildings are exquisitely crafted and have different styles, fully reflecting the wisdom and talents of the ancient Roman people.

From Parma City to the northwest, you can reach the industrial city of Milan, and to the northeast, you can reach the famous water city of Venice. It is the only way for Milan and other European countries to the capital Rome, and the transportation is very convenient.

Without entering the city, the Turin team's bus went directly to the periphery of Parma Football Club's home stadium in the southeast corner of Parma City - Ennio Tardini Stadium.

The stadium is named after Ennio Tardini, the former president of Parma. It was built in 1923 and has more than 29000 seats.

This stadium is there and has witnessed the rise and fall of the Parma club for decades, neither sad nor happy.

That's it?Zhu Hantao looked up and found that everyone was already packing up their things and preparing to get off the bus. Did you leave the city? I wanted to see the most famous scenic spot in Palma, what the Cathedral of Palma looked like.

Serie A games are different from youth teams. The team contacted Parma early on, so they can come here today to familiarize themselves with the venue.

But in fact, except for Zhu Hantao, it's probably not the first time for anyone else in the team to come here. This is also the advantage of being a veteran. Not only is he rich in experience, but he has never seen anything before.

Zhu Hantao hasn't played at his team's home court before, and it's the first time he followed the team to an away game, huh?How do you feel that this experience is familiar?
Is it going to come off the bench again and score two goals in a row as the savior?
The home conditions of the Serie A teams must be much stronger than those of the youth teams, and Zhu Hantao didn't care much about these, just looking around like a tourist.

The game will be played tomorrow, and there is no too much intensive training, just simple training with the ball, and then some tactical coordination in groups. Today's training is over.

After the training, the bus sent the soldiers of the Turin team to the hotel where they stayed tonight. The head coach Walter urged: "Everyone is free to move around, but remember to rest early at night, so as not to affect tomorrow's state."

As for whether anyone will listen, I don't know. After the coach left, the players went out together to carry out adult activities.

Rosina also thought of Zhu Hantao, "Hey, do you want to play with us?"

"I don't think so," Zhu Hantao was a little moved, but he still restrained himself, "You guys go and have fun."

"Hahahaha, don't pull him, he is a good baby, he is not yet an adult."

"Hahahaha!"

Zhu Hantao was helpless, watching them leave with a smile, what should he do, go back to the room and play games?
Let's go out for a stroll, Zhu Hantao decided to take a stroll in Palma City alone, anyway, he had never been here before, so he heard that the ham here is very famous, although Zhu Hantao never eats pickled food.

I walked out of the hotel and looked at the map. The location of the hotel is good, very close to the main church of Palma and the Peace Square.

"Hey, it's too inconvenient to not have a smartphone. I'm used to satellite positioning and smart navigation. Now I feel like a fool with the paper map in my hand."

It's useless to complain, his system is cultivated by green superstars, not scientific superstars.

Taking a sip of the coffee aroma in the air, Zhu Hantao sometimes wonders if he can also go to a roadside coffee shop, order a cup of authentic Italian coffee, and chat with passers-by to enjoy the pleasant time.

However, the ideal of wanting to go further on the football road made Zhu Hantao control himself.

First, I went to the Peace Square for a walk. How should I put it, it is very common. It is a scene that can be seen everywhere in Italy. Some people walk their dogs, some people take a walk, and some people show affection.

Zhu Hantao pursed his lips and shook his head, opened the map to identify the direction, and walked towards the Cathedral of Palma.

The distance is only 400 meters, and we arrived in a short time. How should I put it, I have seen the duomo cathedral in Milan and the Santa Maria del Fiore cathedral in Florence, and I feel that the one in Parma is a bit ordinary.

Zhu Hantao, who was somewhat disappointed, was about to go back to the hotel, when suddenly a weak voice came from behind him: "Excuse me... are you from Huaguo?"
