Chapter 57

(one)

When Chen Zhuo took the initiative to greet and chat with Baggio in Italian, Baggio was surprised but still very happy. In the Hong Kong team, Baggio always communicated with the players in English and did not use Italian at all.

"You can...teach me first..." Chen Zhuo said with great effort while gesturing.

"Teach you the Italian pronunciation of numbers first?" Baggio understood Chen Zhuo's collective language.

"Yes, numerical, Italian, pronunciation, and then, phrase, we, code, team." Chen Zhuo popped out one word after another.

"I will teach you the Italian pronunciation of numbers first, and then some phrases. These numbers and phrases serve as the secret codes of our team. When playing in Asia, we can communicate with each other like this." Baggio can basically understand Chen.

burning intention.

"Numbers, and then phrases, are the secret codes of our team. When we play in Asia, we can communicate with each other like this." Chen Zhuo's learning ability is indeed very strong. Although he still stumbles a bit when repeating Baggio's words, he has basically learned it.

I can retell it above.

After defeating Bari on Sunday, Genoa still ranks first with 15 points and 5 wins and 1 loss.

Lazio defeated Brescia 1:0 at home and moved into second place with 13 points.

Inter Milan tied with Juventus 0:0 in this round and each scored one point. With 11 points, Lazio took over the second place.

In this round, AC Milan defeated Parma 1:0 in an away game, and its points also became 11 points. Due to the goal difference, it fell behind Inter Milan and ranked fifth.

Ranked fourth is Naples. They defeated Roma 2:0 at home in this round. Their goal difference is the same as AC Milan, but they are ranked ahead of AC Milan due to more goals.

As the previous "dark horses" fell one after another in this round, although they only got one draw, Juventus still took a step forward and ranked seventh with 8 points. Brescia, which had lost two consecutive games, still had 9 points and had slipped to the seventh place.

Sixth place.

Roma, which suffered another defeat, is still third from the bottom. Udinese defeated dark horse Cesena in this round and won its first win of the season. It also surpassed Parma and gave up the first place from the bottom.

On the scorer list, Napoli's Edinson Cavani tops the list with 7 goals in 6 games, followed by Eto'o with 5 goals in 6 games, and Chen Zhuo with 4 goals.

Tied for third place with three other players.

In the first six rounds of games, Genoa scored a total of 12 goals, ranking first with the same number of goals as Naples and Juventus. However, Genoa conceded only 3 goals, tying with Inter Milan for the fewest goals conceded.

The team, Napoli, which scored 12 goals the same as Genoa, conceded 8 goals, while Juventus conceded 9 goals.

Taking advantage of the two-week suspension, various media also took stock of the first stage of the game, especially the top-ranked Genoa team, which gave a serious summary.

In the monthly summary selection in September, Gasperini won the best coach, Chen Zhuo was selected into the monthly best 11-man lineup, and won the small trophy for the best player of the month. The top five goals of the month also received Chen Zhuo's award.

Zhuo’s two goals were the “pendulum pass” and the “Victorian spin”.

The monthly selection for September is based on the four games from the second to the fifth round. Genoa's 3:0 victory over Bari in the sixth round will be used as the selection for October. Genoa still has a strong momentum entering October.

After this round of games, Chen Zhuo got nine days of leave to train with the Hong Kong team in Europe. He will return to the team on October 13 to prepare for the seventh round of the league against Roma in an away game on October 17.

All European leagues have made way for national team games. Yong Aping, Lin Zhijian, and Xie Jiaqiang all participated in the training camp. There was something wrong with Bobby Wood because the U.S. National Youth Team issued a call-up order for him.

After much hesitation, Bobby Wood gave up joining the Hong Kong team.

Within two weeks, Baggio arranged three commercial warm-up matches, and the schedule was relatively tight. The three commercial warm-up matches were to challenge the second-division team Vicenza in Italy, and to compete with the Premier League team Birmingham in the UK.

There is also Chen Zhuo's old club Hamburg, which is all contacted by the Hong Kong Football Association. This is also a test of the previous joint training and non-commercial warm-up training.

Vicenza is the hometown of Baggio. This city is about 60 kilometers west of Venice and is also a city at the southern foot of the Alps. It is the headquarters of the world's largest cable manufacturer, Pirelli Cables and Systems, with a population of

With a population of more than 800,000, it is a medium-sized city.

The last glory of Vicenza Club was winning the Italian Cup in the 199697 season, allowing them to participate in the 199899 Cup Winners' Cup and reaching the semi-finals. They were eventually eliminated by Chelsea and failed to go further. Then they were relegated in 1999 and again the following year.

He returned to Serie A but only played for one season before returning to Serie A. He never returned to Serie A in the next 10 years, and fell to Serie C in 2005, only to return again a year later.

After being promoted to Serie B again in the 2006 season, Vicenza can only maintain its ranking in the middle and lower reaches of Serie B, ranking 13th to 16th among the 22 Serie B teams, and it no longer has the prestige it once had.

However, for a team of this level, in several warm-up matches organized by Baggio to "find problems and gaps" when he first arrived in Italy, Vicenza's reserve team easily defeated the Hong Kong team, which also shows that the Hong Kong team's combat effectiveness is really good.

Very bad.

On October 6, just three days after the sixth round of the league, Chen Zhuo came to Vicenza with the team. In this game, both Chen Zhuo and Rong Aping were put on the bench by Baggio.

They were the main players who participated in the Sunday A-League. Baggio chose to let two of them come on as substitutes in the second half. Lin Zhijian, Xie Jiaqiang and Gasson all started.

It was less than ten days since the defeat to the Vicenza reserve team. Baggio also allowed the players to discover their own progress through this game. The 70 minutes of guarding Genoa's attack on Friday gave the players a great deal.

of self-confidence.

When Chen Zhuo was not on the court, Baggio deployed a 5-4-1 formation. Compared with the Genoa team, Su Weiquan started as the deep-lying central defender, while Xie Jiaqiang and Gasson served as sweeping man-marking central defenders.

Remaining unchanged, Zhai Tingfeng and Xia Zhiming play as full-backs to form a five-back, with Guo Jianbang and Ouyang Yaochong as the left and right midfielders, Lin Zhijian and Xu Deshuai as double midfielders to form a midfield four, and Chen Zhaoqi serves as the lone forward.

In the past few days, Baggio explained to the players the use of the triangle offensive and defensive system on the court based on Genoa's victory over Bari.

Baggio's arrangement was very detailed. When the full-backs and midfielders cooperated in defense, the two full-backs moved over to form a wing triangle defense formation. When the full-backs and full-backs cooperated in defense, the full-backs moved

In the past, a triangle defense formation was formed on the wing. When the double midfielders defended frontally, Chen Zhaoqi dropped back to form a triangle defense formation with the double midfielders.

In the game against Vicenza, Baggio's task in the first half was very simple. To ensure that he did not concede a goal in the first half, the attack was coordinated by two full-backs and a single forward. Even when attacking, the five defenders and double forwards were ensured.

The seven players in the defensive midfielder lasted only half a game.

The first 45 minutes were reserved for Chen Zhuo and Rong Aping to observe and communicate. The two of them only practiced together on Tuesday, and they only had one day of joint training.

The effect of this lineup was pretty good in the first half. The Hong Kong team only scored a goal due to a foul at the edge of the penalty area and the opponent seized the opportunity of a set kick.

These three warm-up matches are commercial matches, with sponsors, ticket sharing, and TV broadcast revenue distribution. Under Baggio's guidance, the Hong Kong Football Association and Italian Vicenza Club signed a strategic cooperation agreement on youth training and player exchanges.

, Vicenza Club will train players aged 12 to 16 for clubs in the Hong Kong League every year.

Players, 3 for each age group, enter Vicenza's youth training team. The board, accommodation and training fees are paid by each club. When they turn professional players at the age of 16, Vicenza can contract with the entrusted training team

The club signed a three-party agreement with the player, and the salary and insurance were paid jointly by both parties. At the same time, Vicenza owned half of the player's ownership.

The agents of these players will be Spamwitz. Leoni will recruit players in Italy to expand the company. This agreement will be

Officially launched in the summer of 2011, Vicenza will send five age groups from 12 to 19 years old to Hong Kong for summer training every summer to compete with teams of the same age group in Hong Kong and Shenzhen.

It will take about 40 days. At the same time, Vicenza's scouts will go with the team to identify young Chinese players between the ages of 12 and 16 from the entire "summer training camp".

Since the current salary of the Hong Kong Professional League is much lower than that of mainland China, which is only equivalent to the salary level of the middle and lower reaches of the Chinese League One, Vicenza has little intention to send players to Hong Kong for the time being. In this regard, the Hong Kong Football Association stated that it is now

During the revitalization, when there was no professionalization and professional bubble in mainland China, the Hong Kong Professional League was still very attractive. However, because Hong Kong was a British colony in history, more than 90% of the foreign players in the Hong Kong Professional League came from Commonwealth countries and

area.

For this game, the occupancy rate of Romeo Monti Stadium, which can accommodate 200 people, reached half. Chen Zhuo's appeal and Baggio's appeal each accounted for half. Genoa local TV and Hong Kong Star TV also broadcast live broadcasts.

Compared to Serie A, the ratings are not high, but advertising fees can basically cover the costs. After all, there is still a sponsor like Errea there to collect the bottom line.

No matter how backward the level is, people will always care and pay attention to the country or region where they have a sense of belonging. The live broadcast time of this warm-up match is also chosen around 10 p.m., Yanjing time. Almost all the bars in Hong Kong and Shenzhen

The game was all broadcast live.

In addition to jersey brand sponsors, beer and throat lozenges are also two indispensable products for football matches. In addition to advertising on TV, they also hold various events for the game in many bars, plazas and food courts. kind of promotional activities.

The Shenzhen Special Administrative Region, which has always been positioned to "serve Hong Kong", settled in Chen Zhuo's "Youth Training Base", and it was also developed into a "key cultural and sports industry project" under Xiaomeng's leadership. It was applied for on the eve of the Universiade. There is great hope that the 1,500 acres of land can be allocated and supported by the government for free. Of course, the prerequisite is that it can only be used as a "youth training base" and cannot be used as commercial or residential development land.

In the past 10 years, Shenzhen has made innovations in the system. It merged the Cultural Bureau, Sports Bureau and Tourism Bureau into the "Culture, Sports and Tourism Bureau", and began to prepare for the "Cultural Expo" and began to support the cultural industry step by step. Chen Zhuo's youth training base As a key support project, it is also a strategic initiative, but it has created a lot of momentum, but the application for free support has not yet been approved.

"The performance of the Hong Kong team in this game is still good, especially the running activity has been significantly improved. There is a feeling that people will be impressed after three days. Although before the first half, the players of the Dutch Olympic team, the Netherlands The main players of the first division, Rong Aping and Chen Zhuo, did not play, but facing the impact of the Vicenza team, the Hong Kong team players did not appear to be particularly struggling. As everyone knows, our Hong Kong team lost in the informal warm-up match ten days ago. To the Vicenza Youth Team and Vicenza Second Team..."

Zhang Jun also introduced Vicenza's "glorious" history during the intermission, including being runner-up in Serie A, winning the Italian Cup, reaching the semi-finals of the Cup Winners' Cup, and winning two Ballon d'Or awards. Players Rossi and Baggio, etc., in short, they said that Vicenza was very powerful, and it also made the Hong Kong team look very powerful.

"We have been reporting on the Hong Kong team's preparations for the Asian Games. Currently, the Hong Kong team's ranking in Asia and the world is very low. In Asian-level competitions, it is rare to break through the group stage. We are also looking forward to this year's Brazil. The Hong Kong team commanded by Joe can bring us some surprises. Speaking of surprises, we have to say our 'Mr. Surprise'. Since they just competed in Serie A, head coach Baggio did not let Chen Zhuo start. The second half of the game is about to start, let's see if Baggio will use Chen Zhuo in the second half of the game."

"Sure enough! We can know from the cheers in the stands that Chen Zhuo is on the stage. This player who has performed well in the Italian Serie A is waving to the audience in the stands..."
