Chapter 222 Kavacin's Commitment

"In order to fully understand your strength in the game, to make the most appropriate choices, so that the team can benefit from it, I have a preliminary arrangement."

Seeing that neither of them spoke, Kavacin slowly revealed his arrangements.

"The next game against Catania, Kurchi, you start!"

"Chu, you are Kurchi's substitute!"

Kurch immediately looked happy when he heard the head coach handing over the main position to him.

Chu Jiang was silent and looked calm.

If we simply announced that Kurchi was the main force, there was no need for Kavacin to call all the two of them to the office for discussion, and he would definitely have some more information.

Chu Jiang was not in a hurry to draw a conclusion, and he would talk about everything after he finished listening.

"Thank you, Mr. Coach!"

Kurchi couldn't wait to thank him.

Cavacin glanced at him and said nothing, he continued.

"After playing Catania, the next game will be Chu Lai as the starting goalkeeper. Kurchi, you will be his substitute."

really!

Chu Jiang was quite satisfied with Kavacin's arrangement, which was much better than before when he couldn't play in the game.

Chu Jiang was satisfied, but Kurchi was not happy.

"Mr. Coach, I have always been the main force of the team and have always made low-level mistakes. Why should I deprive me of the main force? I am not convinced!"

Kurchi is very smart.

He did not say how he performed or how Chu Jiang was at his level, but just kept saying that he was the main player. If the coach did not have sufficient reasons and changed the main player of the team at will, it would definitely cause dissatisfaction with other main players in the team. Because they would also be worried that one day, their main player will be cancelled by the head coach for no reason.

However, Cavacin ignored him.

"I looked at the information. The main goalkeeper of the team last season was Castrac, not you. You are the main player of the team, which is the past six months. Although the performance is acceptable, the team has conceded many goals, which is a certain gap with Chu's performance when he was on the court."

"But……"

Kurch was about to open his mouth to argue, but Kavacin stopped him with gestures.

"I know, you may think that a few games alone don't mean anything. The intensity of the cup is not comparable to that of the league. I admit that your idea makes sense, but I also have my own considerations."

"I have no prejudice to lead the team. Everyone is the same, including you and Chu. You are all excellent young people and have a bright future. I know that. But there is only one main goalkeeper in the team. There must be competition between you, and it is fair competition."

"I give each of you a chance to play once. Who is the main player in the next game and who will be the substitute will be determined based on your performance in the game. There may be a little bit fewer games, but we don't have many games left this season, and our points ranking is not ideal, because you can't give you more time to perform."

"In the only time I have to play, I hope both of you can be prepared carefully, come out in the best form, and convince me with your form, not verbal words."

"Do you have any comments?"

Cavacin looked at the two young goalkeepers and asked them for advice.

"I don't have it, I think it's good. I'll never be afraid of fair competition!"

Chu Jiang said calmly and firmly.

"Kurchi, where are you?"

"…I, okay, I have no objection."

If you disagree with the head coach's proposal, the head coach will feel that Kurchi is afraid of Chu Jiang and dare not compete with him fairly.

After all, he is still young and has a competitive spirit. Kurchi is not willing to give in to his competitors at this time, so he has to agree.

"Very good, that's it!"

Cavacine's final word!

Who is the main force and who is the substitute will be the final decision on the court!

When Lecce became famous, Cavacin used the 3511 formation of three defenders. Now that he has come to Sampdoria, he continues to stick to his usual playing styles.

During training, the main force begins to become proficient in new formations.

Like the previous agreement, Kurchi appeared on the main side, while Chu Jiang was the goalkeeper on the substitute side.

At the same time, Sampdoria's official website announced that Chu Jiang recovered from injury and began to participate in the team's joint training...

Currently, Sampdoria ranks 14th with 31 points, and Catania ranks 16th with 29 points. This is a battle between two relegation teams.

When Sampdoria wins, it will lay a solid foundation for her relegation path. If Catania wins, they will surpass Sampdoria in ranking and get a better position on the relegation path.

This game is very important!

Before the game, Kavacin was optimistic about the team's relegation situation. "I won the Golden Bench Award with the 352 formation, and I will do my best to help the team."

Judging from the historical confrontation records, the two teams have played a total of 11 games in history, with Catania having a disadvantage in 3 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses. However, the two teams have played a total of 5 games in home games in Catania, with Catania having the upper hand in 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss.

Catania has won 2 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses in the last 8 games, and is in a bad state. Sampdoria has 1 win, 1 draw and 6 losses in the last 8 games, and is in a worse state than Catania. On the road to relegation, this is a pair of brothers in distress.

On March 13, in the 29th round of the Serie A, Sampdoria's match against Catania officially started at the Massimino Stadium.

Like the lineup predicted by Milan Sports before the game, Sampdoria is the 3511 formation that coach Cavacin is good at. From the back to the front, there are Kurchi; Zauri, Volta, Martinez; Manini, Poly, Desena, Tisone, Latzenko; Guberti; Macaroni.

According to the pre-match arrangement, Chu Jiang sat patiently on the team's bench.

Due to Palonbo's injury, Poly put on the team's captain's armband. After joining the team during the winter break, Razenko made his debut for the first time on behalf of the team.

Shortly after the opening, Macarone got a chance to score a single goal, but unfortunately he didn't score.

In the heavy rain, the fight between the two sides was very fierce.

When it comes to the relegation period, no one can retreat. If you take a step back, you will likely fall into the cliff and be doomed.

Fight!

Grab it!

In the heavy rain, the players of the two teams were unwilling to give in, and the slippery land could not stop their enthusiasm for fighting.

For victory, for honor!

Just 11 minutes into the game, Tissonne received a yellow card.

In the 23rd minute, Tisone was presented with the second yellow card by the referee Rizzoli on duty.

The two yellows turned red, and Tisone ascended directly.

During the halftime break, the score was still a 0-0 draw. In the second half, Sampdoria was in a tragedy.

In the 75th minute of the game, Catania's midfielder Lodi assisted. The No. 16 Liama, who had just been on the court in the second half, broke through the goal guarded by Kurchi.

1:0.

On the road to relegation, Catania took a step forward.

Kurchi still did not make any obvious mistakes in this goal conceding, and he performed in a proper manner.

However, the ball was entered, which is a fact and no one can deny it.

After the team fell behind, Cavacin replaced the forward Biabiani with midfielder Poli with the intention of strengthening the offense and tied the score before the end of the game.

However, his wish was not fulfilled.

With Rizzoli's final whistle, the Catanians won a valuable victory at their home court, surpassing their relegation rival Sampdoria.

On the way to relegation, Catania took a step forward, while Sampdoria took a step back helplessly.

The new head coach Cavacin's debut at Sampdoria ended in a bitter defeat.

Technical statistics after the game show that Catania shot 13 times, while Sampdoria only had 3 times, less than a quarter of its opponents. In terms of ball possession time, Catania is 65%, while Sampdoria is only 35%.

In the whole game, Catania had 463 passes, while Sampdoria had only 255 passes.

No matter which technical statistics are used, Catania has a clear advantage. To be honest, Sampdoria lost without any wickedness.

It is worth mentioning that although Catania's shots were as high as 13 times, there were only 2 shots on the goal, which was only once more than Sampdoria.

However, they scored a goal with two shots and finally secured the victory.

Is Kurchi's bad luck or is his only ability? Everything is indifferent...

For Chu Jiang, although he was unwilling to see the team lose, this game had little direct relationship with him.

What he needs to care about is how to play the team's next game!

In this game, Kurchi performed well. With one less player in the team, he was eventually broken by his opponent.

Therefore, there are certain objective reasons for his conceding goals.

If Chu Jiang does not perform well enough in the next game, the head coach may still be unable to make up his mind and directly give him the status of the main goalkeeper.

Therefore, in the next game, Chu Jiang not only needs to help the team score three points, but also perform very well.

He wanted to use his outstanding performance to directly cut off Kurchi's thoughts and lock the team's main position in one fell swoop!

This is an excellent opportunity for Chu Jiang.

He must not miss it!

Sampdoria's next league game is on March 20.

By then, Sampdoria will be at his home court and welcome another direct competitor on the road to relegation, Parma!

Due to criticism from the outside world, Cavacin began to reexamine whether the 351 formation is suitable for the current Sampdoria team.

In preparation for the game, the team began to change to the 4411 formation, and Chu Jiang began to appear in the position of the main goalkeeper.

Obviously, despite the pressure, Kavacin is ready to fulfill his previous promise.
Chapter completed!
