Chapter 59: High-rise Earthquake (Second Update, Guaranteed)

April 18th is the first match day of the 32nd round of Serie A. On this day, there will be two league games. The first one is Genoa's home game against Lazio, followed by Juventus. The "Italian national derby" between Tus and Inter Milan.

All eyes are on this El Clasico, and there will never be a shortage of topics in the match between Juventus and Inter Milan.

But Chen Yingxiong and his teammates obviously paid attention to the first game.

As a competitor in the Champions League qualifying rounds, Naples certainly hopes that Genoa loses the game.

However, Genoa is in good form recently, and it will not be easy for them to lose.

When the Naples team was on their way to the away game, the game between Genoa and Lazio was in full swing.

After their plane landed, they got good news from their coach.

"Genoa lost at home!"

"Oh oh oh oh!"

"marvelous!"

"Long live!"

"Ahaha! We are in for a show!"

Since it was determined that the goal for this season is to qualify for the Champions League next season, everyone has been full of fighting spirit and is particularly excited for the next game.

Genoa's loss is indeed good news for Naples. Next, they only need to defeat Cagliari away from home to close the points gap with Genoa.

Every city in Italy is like an independent scenery, but Chen Yingxiong had no intention of appreciating the beauty that was praised in his travel notes. He followed the team to Cagliari in full swing and rested for a night. The next afternoon, against the dazzling sunlight of Sardinia and the Mediterranean, the battle began.

Cagliari is not easy to play. Although they were still hanging around in the lower leagues in the past few years, their current head coach Allegri (Massimiliano_allegri) is a very high-level head coach among Italian local coaches.

He has just coached Cagliari this season, but he has already led the team to create outstanding results.

It's quite difficult to beat them at their home court.

But wouldn’t it be fun to challenge something that is easy? Chen Yingxiong thought so.

"Hero - goooooooooool! He scored his twentieth goal of the season! What an incredible performance! He almost wasted the entire first half of the season, but with his super performance in the second half of the season, he turned out to be the top scorer in the league He reached fourth place on the list! He surpassed Fiorentina’s Gilardino!”

Amid the exclamations of the commentator, Chen Yingxiong was running under the bright sunshine of Sardinia. The sweat on his body was illuminated by the sun and gave off a dazzling brilliance.

In the 30th minute, he opened the scoring for the team!

"This is a long shot from outside the penalty area! He suddenly pulled outside the penalty area and took a powerful and heavy long shot! Although Cagliari's goalkeeper Federico_marchetti made a save, he still There was no way to stop the football from flying into the goal! Chen Yingxiong’s long-range shot was quite threatening!”

"I wonder if players like Ibrahimovic who are at the top of the scorer list feel threatened. They now have a fierce competitor!"

"In my first season after joining Serie A, I scored twenty goals! Such a forward is really fierce!"

"He reminds me of Shevchenko. The two have completely different styles. The only thing in common is... they can both score goals!"

"If he can maintain this form in the first half of the season, I even think he can compete with Gunnar Nordahl! The Swedish star became the first player in Serie A with 35 goals in his first season. He became the top scorer in Serie A! This single-season scoring record has yet to be broken by anyone..."

Although Cagliari quickly equalized the score with a penalty kick.

But after knowing that Genoa lost, Naples was already an unstoppable tank.

In the ninth minute of the second half, Paul Cannavaro scored with a header from a corner kick, helping the team take the lead again.

In the 78th minute of the game, Arshavin assisted Hamsik, who calmly shot in the penalty area and completely sealed the victory.

Although Cagliari scored a goal in the 90th minute by their No. 10 Andrea_lazzari, it was of no avail.

Naples successfully won this game on the road, narrowing the point gap between them and Genoa to one point!

This point made all Naples people smell the aroma of the Champions League.

While all Neapolitans focused their attention with great interest on the team's ranking in the league standings, no one knew that something also happened in De Laurentiis's luxurious manor on the hillside of Mount Vesuvius in Naples. An event that will affect the future of Naples.

Pierpaolo Marino made the decision to resign after a long conversation with Aurelio De Laurentiis.

Just when the Naples team returned to Naples with the joy of victory, the Naples club officially announced that club president De Laurentiis agreed to the resignation of general manager Marino.

The entire Italian media was in an uproar.

Everyone knows Marino's role for Naples. When Marino came to Naples, the club had nothing, and even the players had to bring their own training uniforms. Now Naples has become one of the most financially powerful clubs in Italy. This cannot but be said to be due to his skillful management.

Look at Naples today. Hamsik, Lavezzi, Santa Croce, Maggio, Chen Yingxiong, and Arshavin all brought the team to the team during his tenure. These people are basically from Naples. Main lineup.

Such a person who has made outstanding contributions to the revival of Naples is dismissed!

Can it not be surprising?

What exactly led to Marino's resignation?

Some media speculated that it might be related to the conflict between Lavezzi and head coach Mazzarri, because everyone knows that Lavezzi was brought to the team by Marino. Perhaps it was because in the fight between the players and the head coach, De Laurentiis sided with the head coach, and in the war between the head coach and the club manager, he still chose to side with the head coach. So Marino and Lavezzi suffered a tragedy.

Some media also analyzed that this had nothing to do with Lavezzi. Because De Laurentiis has long been dissatisfied with Marino. He runs the club very well, but he has been reluctant to invest in the transfer market and always makes small fuss. Chen Yingxiong and Arshavin were brought by Laurentiis himself and have nothing to do with Marino. Look at the current performance of Chen Yingxiong and Arshavin. The players bought for a lot of money do have their outstanding features and are worthy of the transfer fees and salaries paid by the club.

Didn't De Laurentiis just release Naples' second five-year plan? Since you want to become a wealthy family, you can't be so stingy. But Marino is used to being the head of a poor family, and he is a bit incapable of making big-money transfers... In other words, the reason why he and Rhea were dismissed is the same. The club wants to continue to develop, but it is hampered by the ability of the management. and the limitations of vision. Only by releasing these shackles that bind the team can the team soar into the sky.

In today's world football, all the successful and wealthy teams are willing to spend money. Real Madrid and Barcelona invest tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of euros every year. For what reason? Isn’t it just to stay competitive enough?

Arsenal is a negative example. As he was stingy with investment and Wenger was always prudent and reluctant to spend money, they have not won any championship for several years.

As for second-rate and quasi-first-rate teams, if they want to become a giant, they must first build a lineup that can compete with the giants, which requires spending money. Look at Chelsea back then. Before Abramovich arrived, Chelsea was definitely not a wealthy team. Although there were Vialli, Gullit, Zola and others, they could only act as spoilers in the Premier League. character of. Until Abramovich came to Stamford Bridge with rubles, he wasted no time in investing large sums of money in transfer fees, poaching excellent managers and youth training talents from all over, cultivating them, and then spending a lot of money to hire Mourinho. A young and promising coach like Ao.

Then, when everyone talks about wealthy clubs, they always unconsciously include Chelsea in their list, even if Chelsea is not considered a wealthy club in a strict sense. But in everyone's mind, Chelsea already has the strength to compete with those traditional giants, and it is only natural to gain the same status as the giants...

If Abramovich is a stingy person, how would Chelsea be where they are today without his investment over the years?

De Laurentiis is just repeating the path of his predecessors.

Based on this analysis, it seems reasonable for the petty Marino to be dismissed.

Of course, the outside world will never know the truth about Marino's dismissal, because neither of them told them.

Marino only issued a brief statement: "In these years, I have completed all the tasks assigned to me by the club. I am very honored to be able to work in a great club like Naples. Mr. De Laurentiis will always They are all my friends, and I also want to thank him for the support and trust he has given me over the years. We have mutually reached an agreement on leaving."

De Laurentiis also expressed his gratitude for Marino's contribution: "The club and I are very grateful for everything he has done at the Naples Club. I am sad to see him leave. But this is the only way to go. I I wish him good luck personally and as a club!"

Regardless of the reason, Marino and Rhea, the biggest contributors to Naples' resurgence, have left one after another. Many people are not very optimistic about the future prospects of this club, and even feel that Naples's prospects are cast a shadow.

Can Naples, which has experienced high-level turmoil, really be able to revive and rise as their club president said?
