Chapter 101 The Martyr's Old Years
Although a wonderful block was staged, the rhythm of the game did not slow down a bit.

After being passed by the opponent with a through ball, Scarpelli chased back directly, and then received the ball blocked by Lorenzo in front of the penalty area.

After getting the ball, he passed Pelissier, who was trying to counter-rob, with a simple change of direction, and then passed the ball to Nainggolan who reached out to him in the midfield. This time, Nainggolan did not choose to send the ball directly.

After getting the ball and turning around, Nainggolan, who has been completely trained by Carney to be a qualified B2B player, chose to drive the ball himself.On the court, with Nainggolan as the center, Piacenza's midfield is also running rapidly.

Just when people thought that Piacenza would attack Chievo's gate again, Chievo finally showed people the core ability that made him unbeaten in seventeen rounds--a desperate defense.

When Piacenza attacked for the first time, they hardly gave Chievo's defensive players time to react. Even so, Sardo still had a very obvious advantage and overwhelmed Cassia, who had an excellent header ability, to clear the ball.

But now, when the two teams entered a normal offensive and defensive rhythm, Chievo, who had enough time to deploy his defense, began to exert his strength.

When Nainggolan dribbled the ball across the halfway line, he didn't feel anything yet, but when he kept approaching Chievo's penalty area as he dribbled the ball, the pressure he faced suddenly increased.

With his strong body, he overcame the No.1 defensive midfielder he was facing, but then the No.2 defensive player pounced on him. This left Nainggolan with very little interval to think about whether to play the ball, which also led him to continue to choose extraordinary.

Nainggolan is not a technical player. Under the pressure of the No.2 player, his speed had to slow down, which also caused the entire frontcourt of Piacenza to slow down.

Then, before getting rid of the defensive player in front of him cleanly, Nainggolan ushered in the first player he passed back to the defense. In an instant, he was clumsy from the left to the right and could no longer protect the ball under his feet.

With a forced attempt to score the ball and failed, the ball was cut off by Chievo players.

With all five Piacenza players in their own half, Chievo quickly launched a counterattack. As the player who intercepted the ball distributed the ball to the wide players, the situation on the field changed from slow to fast in an instant.

With a two-for-one cooperation, Chievo's left player directly passed the uphill Scapelli through a tacit pass with Pelisier who responded in the center, and then he came to the right side of the penalty area to face Piacenza's right back. When the right back, he chose an inverted triangle cross.

The ball was passed diagonally from the lower right corner of Piacenza's half to the position in front of the penalty area. Pelissier unloaded the ball against Gadri behind him, and then swung his left foot into the penalty area.

Pelissier is not a talented striker. His goals are rarely included in highlights, but this does not affect him as a striker with high scoring efficiency. In his football philosophy, a shot is a shot and no extra performance is required.

He thinks like this, and he does the same. The minimalist style has created the result of ranking first in the Serie B scorer list.At this moment, when Pelissier smeared into the penalty area, he also directly chose to shoot.

The ball passed behind the toes of Gadri, who tried to block with his legs, and then passed the goalkeeper Maurantanio, who had already saved his entire body, and rolled into the goal against the right post.

"Oh oh oh oh!!! Sergio! Sergio! Sergio!"

The Chievo fans began to shout the name of their new captain rhythmically. This player who was in his golden age, but faced invitations from other Serie A teams after the team's relegation resolutely joined the team in the second division, has already become Chievo's new darling.

Game No.30 minutes, Chievo 1:0 Piacenza!

This goal did not break the overall momentum of the Piacenza team. After a short discussion, the players continued to fight.However, in the following time, the reality they faced left them at a loss.

How important a sharp knife is to the team, presumably at this moment, Carney really understood.

As Giuseppe Iachini continued to command and mobilize on the sidelines, Chievo showed Piacenza what a solid wall is. Whether it was Nainggolan's long-range shot or Cassia's header, Chievo's defenders were firmly defended.

Iachini, who has a lot of experience in Italy's chain defense, taught the novice coach Carney a good lesson.

Obviously, some of Chievo's players are not as capable as Piacenza's offensive players, but through the cooperation of the team and the help of core players, they can always kill Piacenza's offense in the bud.

The game time also passed quietly in this state.

Piacenza, who tried to find a breakthrough from Chievo's defense, failed countless times.This situation did not improve after the intermission. Instead, Chievo intercepted the ball after several defenses and counterattacked, threatening Piacenza's gate repeatedly.

If it weren't for the veteran Lorenzo's outstanding performance in this game and several rescue operations in front of the goal, Piacenza's number of goals conceded would never have been maintained at one goal.

"Obviously, Piacenza is in trouble."

During the commentary, Fabio frowned and looked at the situation on the field. At this time, the game time had reached 10 minutes, and Piacenza's offense still did not improve: "They can't always rely on Lorenzo's super long performance. If they can't break the situation as soon as possible, they are almost doomed to lose."

On the court, in the past six or 10 minutes, there is no doubt that Lorenzo is the most active player in Piacenza's defense. At this moment, he is already sweating countless times for filling holes for inexperienced young defenders.

However, he did not show any tired expression in front of his teammates. Instead, he still showed vitality and shouted to his teammates to cheer up.

In addition, Lorenzo is also actively advancing in every offense he can participate in, trying to help the team have more changes in offense.

Although the age has reached the time to retire, Lorenzo, who was sold by the club, was still full of desire to prove himself when facing his old club again.

Even though I am old, my strength is still there. I want to prove to you that selling me is your loss.

In the 70th minute of the game, Piacenza got a right corner kick in another attack.

In terms of set kicks, looking at the temperless Cassia who has been defended by Sado and Padalino who has never touched the ball in front of the defender, Chievo's defenders are not worried, and even a little relaxed.

So they were distracted.

When the ball was taken by Scarpelli and drew an inward arc in the air and flew into the small penalty area, Lorenzo, wearing the No. [-] jersey, rushed in from outside the penalty area.

No one was following, no one was interfering, Lorenzo was at the front of the small penalty area, and was the first to hit the ball under Sado's surprised eyes, and Chievo's goalkeeper was also surprised.

"Boom!"

The ball hit the inner edge of the crossbar and bounced into the goal.

Lao Ji Fu Chi, aspiration for thousands of miles; martyrs in their twilight years, full of enthusiasm.

Lorenzo, the former Chievo player, helped his new club score a key goal to tie the game at the Bente Gotti Stadium where he had spent [-] seasons. He did not celebrate after scoring the goal, but kissed the turf of the stadium with red eyes.

At this time, beside the fourth official, Liu Feng, who had already warmed up, was looking at the big brother who had been cheerful in the team's daily training with flickering eyes.

　Behind every veteran, there are ten or twenty years of years, these should not be forgotten, right?
