Chapter 78: Chapter 78 Berni Challenges Tang Long: Was Your Finisher a Fluke? Come, Shoot Again!

On Monday morning, Icardi arrived unusually early.

As his Porsche 911 drove into the gates of Inter’s base, the old security guard greeted him enthusiastically.

"Yo, Mauro, you’re here so early today, have you had breakfast?"

The old security guard watched the live broadcast yesterday, Inter won a last-second goal, and he was in a jubilant mood.

Icardi, with a sullen face, did not respond and directly revved the engine and drove off.

After parking his car, he walked straight to the meeting room.

Icardi knew that Mancini had the habit of holding a morning meeting with the first team coaching staff on the first morning after each game.

He planned to discuss the Golden Boot with his coach, who valued him highly.

This was a promise from Mancini at the start of the season.

However, in the current 4-2-3-1 tactic, it seemed that the German forward was more suited to the system than him, which made Icardi very anxious.

He had a chance to see Mancini.

Icardi ran into Chiwo at the office building. frёewebnoѵēl.com

Seeing Chiwo, Icardi immediately felt the urge to vent.

He decided to talk to the young coach first, as Chiwo was closer to the players.

However, after Chiwo finished listening to Icardi’s complaints.

The joy he felt from yesterday’s last-second goal in the rain instantly vanished from his face.

Chiwo scolded Icardi harshly!

"Mauro, what are you thinking, you pig-headed idiot!"

"Inter Milan is a team, we win and you’re not happy, look at you sulking!"

"What, you still want to go to Mancini?"

"Go ahead, I guarantee he won’t stop until he’s finished scolding you!"

After being scolded by Chiwo, Icardi felt like a wilted eggplant.

After all, he’s still young, only 22, and despite his commanding celebrations on the pitch, he still has a sense of respect for the coach.

He didn’t dare to go to Mancini anymore, so he trudged to the locker room.

The locker room wasn’t open yet.

After thinking for a while, Icardi decided to go to the base dorms himself to find Tang Long.

He knew that Tang Long didn’t rent a place outside and lived alone at the base.

Entering the dormitory area, he encountered Bonazzoli walking to the cafeteria for breakfast.

Bonazzoli was somewhat surprised to greet him.

Icardi managed a slight smile and quickly walked away.

Knock Knock Knock~

"Come in!"

Pushing the door open, Icardi saw Tang Long sitting alone at the table, watching his laptop.

Leaning in to look, the laptop was playing a highlight reel of his own career that Icardi had shared with Tang Long!

"Wow, you really are watching it!"

Icardi felt quite surprised.

The more surprising was Tang Long.

Why did Icardi come to my dorm?

"Hahaha, I’ve been watching it lately, analyzing your runs, I’ve watched it over a dozen times from beginning to end."

"Is it true you’ve watched a nearly two-hour highlight reel over a dozen times?!"

Icardi couldn’t believe it.

Even members of the Inter First Team coaching staff wouldn’t watch it repeatedly for that long.

Facing his teammate’s amazement, Tang Long smiled faintly.

Tang Long wasn’t lying, he had watched it for even longer, far more than a dozen times.

To enhance the AI system’s big data analysis of Icardi’s playing habits.

Tang Long not only watched the highlight reel Icardi shared.

But also, thanks to Chiwo’s personal connections, acquired video analysis material of Icardi during his time at Sampdoria from their coaching staff.

This material was critical, containing many incorrect positional choices by Icardi and related correction suggestions.

After all, Icardi was very young during his time at Sampdoria.

Sampdoria bought him from La Masia for 300,000 euros to develop and later sell for a high price, hence they placed great emphasis on him, spending a lot of time and effort training him.

However, these materials were commercial secrets of various major clubs.

Chiwo repeatedly urged Tang Long to keep it confidential.

What Tang Long hadn’t told Icardi was that he also obtained analysis videos from his time at La Masia.

Tang Long had only one purpose!

To become more familiar with Icardi’s runs and chalk up more assists on him.

"I’ve been studying your runs lately," Tang Long said, "Your positioning in Serie A is top-notch, but I think there are moments where you could do better. Like here, look, you can go around this tall center-back and exploit the gap between him and the fullback, and here, you didn’t accelerate into the small penalty area, missing a fleeting opportunity..."

Watching Tang Long analyze his runs so thoroughly.

Icardi also became interested.

He pulled over a chair and sat down to discuss with Tang Long.

All of Tang Long’s analysis was based on the judgment of the Green Grass Wisdom Engine AI system.

Integrating the positioning habits of world-class forwards like Inzaghi, Ronaldo, Raul, Van Nistelrooy, C Luo, and combining them with the positioning of defenders for specific analysis.

In just a few words, it made the points extremely clear!

Several corrections gave Icardi a feeling of sudden enlightenment!

"Wow, I didn’t notice these details while playing; it’s exactly as you said, definitely more logical to do it your way, and the chances of scoring are greater!"

Icardi, excited, rolled up his sleeves and even stood up, replaying those wrong runs in Tang Long’s cramped room.

Unknowingly, it was already 8:50!

With only ten minutes left before training started, the two hurriedly ran to the training ground.

"Tang, your goal yesterday against Lazio was awesome, completely stunned their goalkeeper, hahaha!"

"Right, I wasn’t in the last game, Podolski scored two goals, both with your assists. I think if I were there, I could’ve scored at least four!"

Faced with Icardi’s compliment, Tang Long immediately understood his implication.

"Don’t worry, Mauro, the next game is the Milan Derby, you’ll definitely be in the starting lineup. That’s Mancini’s first choice. Podolski can’t change your status in the team."

"Just run, if you run, the chances will come! That’s my promise to you, don’t worry about not getting chances, just worry you can’t make the most of them!"

Hearing Tang Long’s reassurance, Icardi felt somewhat relieved, and his whole demeanor relaxed a bit.

Actually, Tang Long had no doubt about Icardi’s future development.

This 22-year-old forward had a lot of room for improvement, and he was currently in the rapid upward phase of his career.

He had only reached five to sixty percent of his peak level.

While Podolski, seen as a threat by Icardi, at the age of 30, was already on the decline.

His brilliance was just a flash in the pan; he wouldn’t be playing at Inter for long.

Icardi was the club’s most prized asset for appreciation!

Upon arriving at the training ground.

Chiwo came up with a smile.

"Tang, take another shot like your one against Lazio yesterday!"

Teammates joined in the coaxing.

"Yeah, go on, take another shot, we didn’t get enough of that!"

"I never knew you had such shooting skills, you’ve been hiding them well!"

"That shot was awesome, I watched the replay several times, it was so decisive, the power and angle were perfect!"

Berni had already changed and was at the goalpost.

He clapped his goalkeeper gloves heavily and then bent over, ready.

"Come on, Tang, let me see if it was just luck!"
