Chapter 1 The New Season Begins
After a few days of intense pre-season training, the Swiss Super League for the 2014-2015 season officially began on July 19. Gosho's first game was at home against the fourth-ranked Zurich Grasswtlers in the league last season.
Before the game began, Sforza, the head coach of the Grassb, took the initiative to walk to Lin Fenglei and shook hands with him, and said to Lin Fenglei, "Thank you!"
Lin Fenglei knew why Sforza said thank you to himself, because he transferred Kabanus to the Grasswzards for free. You should know that although Kabanas is only a substitute for the Gosho team, the replacement value of the Champions League champion will not be too low. This is equivalent to saving a sum of money for the Grasswt and allowing them to strengthen their strength, which is very important for the Grasswt team.
In addition, if you don't put Kabanus, there is nothing you can do. And this practice is very common in the European League. Players you don't want will never be transferred to league competitors. They would rather put them on the bench or sell them to teams from other countries. Doing so did give Sforza a lot of face.
However, Lin Fenglei knew that he mainly gave face to Kabanas to fulfill his loyalty to the grass-sap team. So he said to Sforza faintly, "It's nothing."
Sforza nodded and returned to his seat.
Sforza's heart is also full of mixed feelings. He and Lin Fenglei knew each other a few years ago. At that time, Lin Fenglei was only the head coach of a challenge group league team. If the grassbbae team he led had not met the team he led in the cup, he would not have had any contact with him at all, and he would not have known such a general. Tong's head coach.
At that time, Lin Fenglei led the Goshao team, and some of them fought against the grassb grassb team led by him. As a result, they lost a 5-0. At that time, he was in high spirits. At the press conference, he just shook hands with Lin Fenglei perfunctorily, as if shaking hands with him was a gift. .
Of course, it was natural for him to think so at that time. At that time, he led the Grasswt team to ride the dust in the league, and winning the championship was basically a forde. He was the hot young commander in the league, and what about Lin Fenglei? At that time, he was still the head coach of an ordinary challenge group league team, and no one saw anything extraordinary about him.
But what about now? The two people fell one by one. The Gosho team led by Lin Fenglei has miraculously won three consecutive championships in the league and two consecutive championships in the UEFA Champions League, and what about himself? He led the Grasswtled team to be relegated and was forced to resign. Later, after the Grasswtleds were relegated, he was ordered to be in danger and finally brought the Grasswtleds back to the Super League. Now I need to look up to Lin Fenglei, and I have to admit that Lin Fenglei gave up to Kabanus to himself.
Now that I think about it, I was too young and energetic a few years ago. Maybe I didn't do anything to myself after suffering such a setback? Sforza thought so.
The two head coaches have their own thoughts, but the game has already begun.
There is only one player in the Grassflies who has participated in this World Cup, that is Mexican winger Giulio. Reyes, an active Mexican international, played all the matches for Mexico in this World Cup, but because Mexico was eliminated relatively early, he did not affect the pre-season training of the Swiss Super League. He is also on the starting list in this game.
Of course, Kabanas, whom Sforza valued very much, also started this game.
On the side of the Gosho team, there are several rotating players in the starting lineup. The six Gosho players who participated in the final all sat on the bench. The continuous battle and the long journey have made them very tired, so Lin Fenglei chose to let them rest.
Antunović, who participated in the three or four finals, did not start, but Lima. Although his Brazilian team also participated in the finals, he did not start in that game, so he was ranked into the starting lineup by Lin Fenglei in this game.
Avazzini moved to the right side in this game and played the right winger. The left winger is Tobinski, and Sampedro is the midfielder. Silva and Henkoz are the central defender, the right defender is Clement, and the front line with Kadinho is Esposito.
Although the pre-match training is not very systematic, although the Goshao team is at home, it is still passive after the start of the game. Several players who participated in the World Cup seemed a little tired and couldn't keep up with the pace of other players, and the Grasswt was obviously well prepared for the game, and they also began to launch an offensive after the opening test.
Kabanas, who returned to his old employer, looked radiant. He has a deep affection for the Grasswt. After the Grasswtrays were relegated and he was sold to the Gosho, he did not expect that one day he would have the opportunity to represent the Grasswt to play in the Swiss Super League. Therefore, he was very excited and in a very good condition.
Before the game, Kabanas shook hands with Lin Fenglei and hugged his former teammates one by one. This warm scene made Goshao fans in the stands applaud him. However, after the warmth, in the game, Kabanas did not show any mercy. His interception in the midfield is still fierce and accurate, and his passing is also very good.
In the thirteenth minute of the game, Cappanas intercepted Sampedero's pass in the backcourt, and then directly transferred the ball to the foot of Reyes on the right. Reyes took the ball at high speed and passed it to the bottom. Italian striker Zigni wrapped it near the post and headed the ball to the top. The ball entered the net. Although Checarelli A save was made, but the shot was too close to the goal, and there was nothing he could do. The Grasswzards unexpectedly led Gosho 1-0 away from home.
The grasshopper players after scoring the goal were overjoyed. They didn't expect to be so easy to lead the opponent at the home of the Gosho team, but they obviously didn't expect that the goal aroused the fighting spirit of the Gosho players.
In the cheers of the Gosho fans, the Gosho team launched a fierce attack on the goal of the Grasswzards. In the 18th minute, Avanzini made a cross after the bottom of the ball on the right side. Kaodingho scored a header similar to the Grasswfly's goal near the post. 1:1, the two teams returned to the same running line. . This goal also made the whole Goshao fans rejoice in the game.
Then, the Gosho team began to bombard the Grassw's goal, and even hit the post twice, but under the defense of the Grasswt's players, they have not been able to score a goal.
Lin Fenglei looked at the time and it was the 70th minute of the second half. He sent Egman, who had been asking to play, to replace Esposito with him.
Egman was very excited. As he took off his coat, he said, "That's right, boss, you should have sent me to play long ago. I said I'm not tired at all, and you still don't believe it.
Lin Fenglei laughed and kicked Egman's buttocks: "Why is there so much nonsense now? Hurry up and play. If you keep talking, I will change my mind and send someone else on the stage."
As soon as Egman heard this, he quickly took off his sports jacket and trousers, ran faster than the rabbit, quickly replaced Esposito, and ran to his position.
Egman's appearance was immediate. In the 80th minute of the game, Lima passed a top pass in the front court. Left winger Topinski received the pass behind the back defense of the Grasswtrays, and then immediately passed it with his left foot. Egman stopped the ball with his chest on the left side of the penalty area, and then did not wait for the ball. On the ground, he volleyed directly in the air, and the ball roared into the upper left corner of the goal. The goalkeeper of the Grasswt team did not even react.
After that, both teams failed to score again. Gosau narrowly defeated the Zurich Grasswt, 2-1 at home, and won the start of the Swiss Super League this season.
Although the process of this game is not smooth and there are some small twists and turns, Lin Fenglei is still very satisfied. When the pre-season training is not very systematic, the result of the game is the most important. In the case of backwardness, it can quickly adjust its state and eventually turn defeat into victory, which also shows that the Gosho team's ability to resist pressure is getting stronger and stronger. Being able to win the game when he is not in good condition is also a proof that Gosho has become a strong team.
