Chapter 19 The Love of Football

Xiang Nan only felt a burning pain in the heel of his right foot, but the fear and resistance to the injury, as well as the anticipation of the next game, made the Chinese boy temporarily forget the pain, and kept asking the team doctor Francis to understand his injury.

After a detailed diagnosis, the conclusion given by Francis made the Chinese boy a little annoyed, but he was still a little lucky. At this time, Novellino, who came in a hurry, also got the exact news from Francis, and there was nothing serious. But for the sake of safety and the health of the players, the first round of Serie A away to Lazio on August 8th will not be played. However, the third round of the Coppa Italia at home against Rimini three days after the first round of Serie A, Still available.

"It's okay!" Novellino let out a long sigh of relief, "It's just a rest, it's acceptable."

I'm afraid Novellino himself didn't realize that, unconsciously, he had already regarded this Chinese boy who had just made his career debut very seriously, even a little too much.It is every coach's dream to have a player like Ronaldo.Perhaps, in Novellino's subconscious at this moment, the head coach with the typical rosacea of ​​the Piacenza people has temporarily characterized the Chinese boy as "a bit like Ronaldo when he was young", but, or, why not Looking for better?
Novellino patted Xiang Nan on the shoulder to comfort the depressed Asian boy.

He is already thinking about the game the day after tomorrow, as well as the appearance of that damn Japanese player.

When Chairman Cairo decided to introduce this Asian player, he was destined to make a wrong decision; will there be good players in Asia?Novellino shook his head slightly. Maybe the Turin coach has forgotten that his yellow-skinned Ronaldo is an Asian, or in the consciousness of the Turin coach, Xiang Nan has been classified as a South American player. After all, From the perspective of playing style, Xiangnan has the unique taste of South American players, excellent foot skills, delicate skills and good running positions; this is also inseparable from Alexander's teachings all the time.

Pino also ran over with concern, and asked about Xiang Nan's injury. The Vicenza brother, who was filled with righteous indignation, almost rolled up his sleeves to teach this bastard who dared to shovel his "fellow townsman" a lesson.Xiang Nan, who was depressed, felt the friendship of the Italian buddies very much.

The club has already helped Xiangnan find a place to live. It is in a house not far from the club's training base. The owner of the house is said to be an old couple who have lived abroad for a long time. The club has obtained the owner's consent through email. During the period after going south, I will live in this house first.Until the club helps him rent a more suitable place, or the Chinese boy becomes famous and has his own real estate, then move out.

On the way back, Xiangnan asked Pino about the final score of the match against the Inter Milan youth team. The Inter Milan youth team was unable to attack after being sent off, while the Torino team was weak in attack. In the end, it was 1:2 The score was maintained until the end of the game, and the Turin team also started the journey of the new season with a seemingly decent defeat of the youth team.

This score was also within Xiang Nan's expectations. The strength of the Turin team is at stake. If it wasn't for the angry Grinino who continued his extraordinary performance in the first half, it is estimated that Xiang Nan would not be able to play. The carnage had already begun; apart from Grignino, goalkeeper Gomis was doing alright.

"It's not possible without my Vicenza 'folk'!", Pino's grand Vicenza plot is about to flood again.

However, Xiang Nan liked to hear this sentence, so he didn't find it noisy.At this moment, the chattering Pino brother, in Xiang Nan's view, is still very cute.

In this way, in a burst of nonsense, we arrived. This is a rural villa-style building. Xiang Nan couldn’t imagine that the house the club found for him was so beautiful. Looking at Pino’s slightly surprised eyes , It is estimated that he is also unaware of this; it seems that the club still pays more attention to Xiangnan's 'replica Ronaldo'.

After sending Pino away, he tidied up hastily.

Lying in the tidied room facing south, the structure of the room has the classical beauty of the European Middle Ages. Whether it is the murals on the wall or the some historical solid wood furniture in the room, it all shows the unusual identity of the owner of this house .

Xiang Nan picked up the phone, first called grandma to report her safety, and then had a conversation with Uncle Alexander about her current situation.

Just hung up the phone, jingle bell!

"Hi, hello, Alice!" Xiang Nan saw a familiar number. Alice has called several times these days. Take good care of Chinese boys.

"Hi, Andre, congratulations on your goal!" Alice's languid tone with a faint Milanese accent had a different charm, like a Bloody Mary with ice cubes, with a different kind of temptation.

However, obviously, as the first brother, Xiang Nan is still a good boy, so he doesn't feel much about it.

"Thank you!" The Chinese boy replied honestly.

"The matter at the University of Turin has been dealt with almost. You can report tomorrow." Alice paused for a moment, then suddenly giggled, "I have helped you so much, how can you thank me?" ?”

Without waiting for Xiang Nan to answer, "At that time, our big star will have to give me more news------"

Xiang Nan faltered for a long time, and finally satisfied Alice's request. No wonder everyone said that reporters were the most difficult to dismiss. Now, the Chinese boy has seen it for himself.

One afternoon, Xiang Nan answered a lot of calls, some from Simao, some from Mr. Carl, and some from------, they didn't know that Xiang Nan had scored a goal, but they were just out of concern, which moved Xiang Nan even more. .

Before going to bed, I received a call from Albertini. On the phone, Demi inquired about Xiangnan's situation in detail. For the contract offered by Turin, the seasoned Albertini still recognized it. For a newcomer like Xiangnan, The Turin team still showed great sincerity.

Hang up the phone, turn off the phone.

The Chinese boy lay quietly on the bed, thinking a lot.

He suddenly remembered Pino's words,

'Andre, do you love football? '

'If you love her, you must respect her! '

Southward thoughts are flying---
