Chapter 97 Two draws (please subscribe!)
Who knew that Barzagli, who had defended Zhu Hantao for the entire game, walked over to Zhu Hantao, and took off his white Palermo away jersey.

"You are very good." The Italian said so, and handed his clothes to Zhu Hantao on his own.

Zhu Hantao:? ? ?
Is this going to swap jerseys with me?But I had planned to exchange it with Iron Guard Amauli. Barzali looked at the little brother with a smile, "Why are you hesitating?" He shook his jersey in his hand.

"Well, Andre, you defended me very hard today." Zhu Hantao smiled wryly, and took off his jersey and handed it over.

"To tell you the truth, I didn't expect it would be so difficult to defend you, but I was really exhausted. You are stronger than we thought, and you won the game, didn't you?" Barzagli smiled and took Zhu Hantao's No. 99 jersey.

The players of Palermo returned to the locker room first after the game, while the players of the home team went to the locker room after interacting with the fans outside the field for a while.

On the way, Rosina, who received another assist in this game, hugged Zhu Hantao, "How is it? I didn't play well today. Di Michele scored two goals, why didn't you score one?"

"Damn, it's not that they are targeting me, I'm helpless too." Zhu Hantao quietly rolled his eyes, it's up to you to say.

Rosina suddenly said sternly: "As other teams get to know more about your characteristics, they will definitely try their best to limit your performance. If you want to play like before, it will definitely not work. You have to find a way for yourself."

"Eh?" Zhu Hantao was taken aback by what the captain said, but what's the use of you just telling me what I know, tell me something I don't know, and tell me how to solve this problem.

But I don't think it's a big deal, as long as I can continue to improve, one day I will become an unsolvable existence.

Patting Zhu Hantao's shoulder and looking ahead, Rosina had already reached the door of the locker room and said, "Let's go in."

"I'm very happy. Everyone performed very well today and got another precious three-pointer. Well, I won't say much. Everyone has a day off tomorrow." Regardless of the process, the Torino team finally won Palermo and received three league points. Coach Novellino was also very satisfied and gave the players a day off.

"Oh yeah!" The audience cheered, as if the news of the holiday would make them happier than winning the game, the head coach smiled and shook his head.

Then the head coach and the best player of the game-Di Michele, who had two shots and one pass, went to the press conference to be interviewed by reporters.

Zhu Hantao, who didn't score a goal, was also happy to be quiet, and didn't have to be questioned by those troublesome reporters, but not scoring a goal is a problem.Although not scoring a goal is nothing in itself, the key question is what to do in the next game.

It was another fruitless night, and Zhu Hantao also thought about it when he returned home. Because of where his goals are, no matter what opponent he is, it is impossible to ignore him, and he will definitely study himself against himself in detail.

As long as he is close to the opponent's penalty area, there must be more than one defensive player rushing towards him. It is true that Zhu Hantao has not yet reached the level of an all-round forward without weaknesses. He really has no good way to deal with this situation.

Why don't you try to retreat a little deeper, turn back and run more, play more and attack later?Well, let's follow the head coach's tactical arrangement and play two more games to see.

Seven days later, Zhu Hantao went to Siena with the team, and the Turin team played away against Siena.

Siena is currently ranked No.17 in the Serie A standings and is on the verge of relegation. It is a really weak team. Although the Torino team is playing away, the only requirement for the players from the head coach Novellino is to win the game and get three points.

This little brother of Juventus is quite powerful against his big brother's rival in the same city. Even though there are only more than 8000 supporters at home, Siena still stubbornly stopped the momentum of Torino's winning streak under the united and full defense.

In a boring zero-to-zero match, Zhu Hantao was once again completely restrained by the opponent. Siena's players all retreated to their own half, and they were everywhere. When Zhu Hantao took the ball in the penalty area, he would always be double-teamed by two defensive players. He had no way to kick the ball out.

In this game, Turin coach Novellino also felt a little sick and rushed to the doctor. The team was unable to score a goal, so he changed forwards one by one. The starters were Rossina Di Michele and Zhu Hantao. In the second half, Strone, Recoba and Lazetic were replaced in turn.

Facing Siena's intensive defense, no one could stand up and insisted on attacking for nearly the entire game. The Turin team, which is good at counterattacks, could not find a way to break through the opponent's goal.

Although the game ended in a draw and the Turin team, which was aiming to qualify for the European War, lost two points that it shouldn't have lost, coach Novellino was not too harsh on his players.

First, the ups and downs of the team's state are also very common, and second, the team's inability to start the situation must have something to do with his tactics, and the blame cannot be thrown on the players.

"It's unlucky, boys, don't be too depressed, this game is over, we have to look forward. Of course, there will definitely be no holiday tomorrow."

"Hahahaha." Coach Novellino successfully resolved the subtle atmosphere among the players after failing to win.

In the afternoon game, everything was over and the sky was still bright. The Turin team set off to return to Turin. On the way back, Zhu Hantao felt a little emotional. This was where his first Serie A match started. He also brought his Canon DSLR with him this time. Unexpectedly, not only did he not win the game, but he also did not have the opportunity to revisit his old place and take some photos as souvenirs.

If there is no goal, there is still no attribute point. Zhu Hantao is a little impatient, but there is nothing he can do. Let's play game by game. There is no rush.

Nine days later, the Turin team will usher in the most important game of the rest of the season. Yes, it is the Turin Derby with Juventus, and this time it is Juventus' turn to play at home.

Why nine days? Because that game was a mid-week game, a game scheduled for Tuesday. Just three days before the game against Juventus, Torino had another game against Parma. Fortunately, it was at home, so there was no need to travel long distances to affect the player's state.

Torino head coach Novellino did not let Zhu Hantao start in the home game against Parma out of protection. After all, he wanted to stay focused on playing the old woman. Zhu Hantao was still too young to let him play such an intensive game, and his body couldn't bear it.

Zhu Hantao can also understand it. Naturally, the next game against Juventus is much more important. All Torino fans are waiting to see, so let's take a break this time.

A dramatic thing happened. The Torino team played against Parma, which was in the relegation zone, at home, and played [-]-[-] with him. Zhu Hantao, who was sitting on the sidelines, suspected that it was a match-fixing.

In the No.11 minute of the first half, the home team scored his first goal of the season with Pisano assisting Strone, giving Turin the lead.

But after the first half, the situation took a turn for the worse. The visiting team scored four goals in a row to overtake the score. At the end of the half, the Turin team fell behind the opponent by a big score of [-] to [-].

In the No.209 minute and No.30 two minutes, the Kenyan Macdonald Mariga with outstanding running ability assisted Parma striker Andre Gasbaroni to score.

No.40 In the second minute, Stefano Morone's shocking long-range shot helped the visiting team expand the score to [-]-[-].

Just 1 minute later, Gasbaroni, who had already scored twice, was not greedy, and passed the ball to assist Igor Boudin to score Parma's fourth goal of the game.

By this time, Zhu Hantao had already been taken aback. What's going on?
Although in order to prepare for the Turin Derby three days later, coach Novellino did make some personnel adjustments, but in fact there was no change in the midfield and defense players. No one expected that a team that was about to be relegated would play like this.

Four goals were scored by the opponent in just three to 10 minutes. You must know that this is at the home court of the Turin team. This is something that even the stronger and top teams in the Serie A standings have not been able to do.

Fortunately, before the end of the first half, the Turin team seized a chance of a free kick. Captain Rossina took a free kick to assist the central defender Natalie with a header and scored a goal for the home team.

Then Zhu Hantao watched the head coach Novellino make substitutions and adjustments. At the beginning of the second half, Lazetic was replaced by Di Michele.

Then he replaced veteran Corini with Recoba, and replaced Rosina with Ventola, who seemed to have not played for a long time.

Zhu Hantao thought he would have a chance to play to turn the tide, so he turned his head anxiously to Novellino from time to time, but the Torino coach completely ignored Zhu Hantao's strong desire to play.

The tactical adjustment did play a role. In the No.609 minute of the game, Recoba took a corner kick on the right side of the goal. Strone scored twice and scored twice on behalf of the Turin team this season.

In the No.80 second minute of the game, Di Michele scored twice after scoring twice against Palermo in the last game, and scored another goal to equalize the score for the team. The score was [-]-[-].

In this way, a strange game ended with such an uncommon football score. Torino and Parma scored a point each, and they scored a second consecutive draw.

After sitting on the bench for the whole game, Zhu Hantao, who watched the whole game, was a little puzzled. I couldn’t understand why this game was a bit confusing. How did he play like this? In this state, wouldn’t it be a gift to play against the mighty Juventus?

Looking puzzled at the head coach of the team, whose face was cloudy and uncertain, Zhu Hantao shook his head. That's not something I should think about. I'll just listen to the coach's arrangements and try my best to play myself well. I will definitely let myself start in the next game. I hope that coach Novellino will not make any more messes.

　Zhu Hantao's first season is drawing to a close. Do you have any thoughts on Zhu Hantao's next stop?
