Chapter 158 Perugia

Saturday, April 30th, tomorrow is the No. 2 round of Serie C Group B. This round of the league will be held at the same time. If Naples, which is ahead of No. 2 by as much as [-], can beat their opponents, and No. [-] Frosinone loses, they will be able to advance to Serie C. Italian national TV has confirmed that this game will be broadcast live. There is only one reason, that is, Naples is coming back.

There will be a game tomorrow, so the head coach Rhea didn't arrange too much training content. He just announced the end of the training after a series of recovery and maintenance training. The players left the training ground and drove home. What was waiting for them was a relaxing night. Long Bisheng stayed.

When the training was about six o'clock in the afternoon, Long Bisheng finished his training. After taking a shower and changing clothes in the locker room, he walked to his dormitory, intending to go out for something to eat.

It was almost dark, and when Long Bisheng walked to the door of his dormitory, he found two figures standing in front of his dormitory door and talking.

Long Bisheng walked forward suspiciously, and vaguely heard the two people talking in Chinese, one voice was very familiar, it was Chu Ran, and the other voice sounded so familiar...

"Brother Li Fang!" Long Bisheng shouted in surprise, then ran forward quickly, and hugged the man!

The person who came was Li Fang who hadn't seen Long Bisheng for almost four years!

"Haha! Aaron, you're getting heavier and heavier now. I can't hold you anymore!" Li Fang let go of his hand with a smile, and looked at Long Bisheng carefully: "Well, your size has grown again, but you haven't grown much... Or are you two meters and two? I thought you would grow to be more than two meters and ten at first."

Long Bisheng scratched his head foolishly: "I don't know. Anyway, I haven't grown much in the past two years. When I was in China, the club even gave me a physical examination. The doctor said that my puberty is much earlier than the average person. Now I have passed the peak of growth, and I probably won't grow any longer in the future."

"That's not certain." Chu Ran interrupted and said, "It's time for a man to turn 19. I was already [-] years old when I came to Italy. I haven't grown a few centimeters in the past five years."

"No matter how long it is, it's not 1.8 meters long." Li Fang gave Chu Ran a teasing look.

Chu Ran was furious: "You little plum is only 1.7 meters eight, right? Like me, you have the nerve to laugh at me?"

"I'm not a goalkeeper. I've seen some of your conceded goals this season. If you were taller, those conceded goals might have been avoided." Li Fang laughed: "Do you want me to recommend you some auxin?"

"Fuck you, brother, I don't need it." Chu Ran said unhappily: "If you are taller, maybe your reaction will be slower, it's all the same."

"Brother Li Dafang, Brother Chu Ran, do you know each other?" Long Bisheng asked in surprise seeing the two of them talking so familiarly.

"Have been a teammate for half a season." Li Fang said with a smile: "In the second half of 2000, I joined Yunjiatianyu's first team. He transferred to Inter Milan in 2001, but we only played a few games together. In the second half of that season, he was recuperating from his injuries. He played in the last few rounds. At that time, I was only Yunjiatianyu's substitute."

"But your kid is more promising than me. You came to Europe a year later than me. Now you are the absolute main force in Florence. Brother, I'm still playing around." Chu Ran shrugged his shoulders and said.

"The starting point for you to come to Europe is too high. You came to Inter Milan... Besides, the goalkeeper is a special position." Li Fang said with a smile.

"Brother Li, why did you come to Naples today? Did you come to see me?" Long Bisheng said excitedly.

Li Fang nodded: "I came to see you... Our league round ended this afternoon, and we have a day off, so I came to Naples to take a look."

"He didn't just come to see you, and he didn't just come to see me... Does anyone know who our next opponent will be?" Chu Ran asked Long Bisheng with a smile.

Long Bisheng replied subconsciously: "Isn't it Perugia? Oh, I understand, the first stop of Brother Li's coming to Europe is Perugia."

"Yeah, when I came to Perugia in 02, we were still in Serie A. Although the results have not been very good, Perugia is a very distinctive team in Serie A." Li Fang's rough face showed a rare look of nostalgia: "Perugia and Yunjia Tianyu players communicated frequently. Boss Nie Fei, Materazzi, I was the third player to come to Perugia from Yunjia Tianyu, and Grosso was the fourth... At that time, there was Ze Maria in the team, and he went to Inter Milan. There is Tedesco, who is now in Genoa, playing in Serie C just like you, but in Group A, Ghanaian midfielder Obodo, who is now in Udinese, Greek striker Frizas, Senegal defender Koli... These are all good players playing in Serie A now, such a team, because the club went bankrupt and relegated... We performed really well in the second half of the 03-04 season, but unfortunately we lost to Fiorentina in the play-offs."

"I lost to your current team." Chu Ran laughed from the sidelines.

"I performed well in that game. Maybe Florence has taken a fancy to me." Li Fang did not deny this: "If it weren't for economic problems, Perugia would not have been reduced to where it is today... The Gauchi family brought glory to Perugia, and at the same time destroyed this club...including Naples."

Chu Ran and Long Bisheng were silent at the same time. Although both of them came to Naples this season when Naples went bankrupt, the fact that a Serie B club with an average home attendance of 6 people has a debt of more than 8000 million euros shows how chaotic the management of this club is. I think Gaucci is the culprit for Naples' relegation to Serie C.

"Forget it, let's not talk about it." Li Fangqiang cheered up and said, "We haven't been together for a long time, my brothers. You two are fine, and we can be together every day. I am alone in Florence, and I can't speak Chinese as happily as today...Let's go to dinner, brother, I treat you!"

"You treat us to a nutritious meal as soon as you are a big star in Serie A? Isn't it a bit shabby?" Chu Ran teased.

"Then I'll treat you to a big meal...do you want to eat?" Li Fang laughed: "It's still during the league period."

Long Bisheng interjected from the side: "I think eating nutritious meals is also good, the taste is quite good."

"Shut up, you can't feed you with any food." Chu Ran rolled his eyes: "I still hope to kill the Serie A star for a French meal, such as foie gras."

"Foie gras contains a lot of cholesterol and high protein, which is not suitable for athletes..." Long Bisheng subconsciously recited a few words, and this time Chu Ran and Li Fang shouted at the same time: "Shut up! You are always so serious!"

******************************************
In the end, the three enjoyed professional players’ professional recipes in a restaurant near the club—pasta pasta, vegetable salad, chicken and beef—and the players who came out of Yunjia Tianyu generally remembered the advice of the club’s chief nutritionist Yourcenar: In terms of physique, Chinese people really cannot compare with Europeans, Africans, and South Americans, especially in terms of sports. , This is the only way to prolong the life of sports and the ability of the court to adapt to confrontation.

During the meal, some local diners recognized the main goalkeeper of Naples and the Chinese striker who was in the limelight in the second half of the season. After they finished their meal, some people came up to ask for their autographs.

It was already very late after dinner, and Li Fang didn't plan to go back to Florence tonight, but he rejected Chu Ran's invitation to help him find a hotel in the local area, but decided to stay in Long Bisheng's room - he wanted to have a good chat with this little brother - of course it wouldn't be too late, Long Bisheng still had a competition task tomorrow.

"I came here this time just to watch the Perugia game." Li Fang said to Long Bisheng before going to bed. "Actually, the current Perugia team is no longer the previous Perugia team. The previous Perugia team was disbanded after being ordered to be relegated to Serie C. The current Perugia team is a reorganized team... It is similar to your situation in Naples, except that you have changed the name. This may be the last time I watch a Perugia game live, and I will not watch it again in the future."

Long Bisheng didn't speak, Li Fang sighed: "Aaron, you have to remember, for us professional players, when it's time to leave, we should choose to leave decisively..."
