Chapter 340
Piacenza has won four in a row, which doesn't seem particularly surprising.

Because as early as the winter break, some media pointed out after taking stock of each team’s opponents after the start of the second half of the season. If Piacenza ranked fourth in the league to measure his opponents, then this team is very likely to achieve good results in the first five rounds after the start of the second half of the season.

Of course, the premise of all this is that after the end of the first half of the season, Piacenza, who has been constantly attacking opponents with enthusiasm and momentum, can continue to maintain a good state.

But now, the reality has proved that Piacenza is indeed not as weak as some other teams that only thrived for half a season. They have successively won four opponents after the start of the second half of the season, and they are moving towards five consecutive victories with great morale.

Due to the arrangement of the Serie A schedule, the interval between the No.20 second round and the No.20 round is very short.

After the match against Chievo, Piacenza only had two days to train, and then went to Siena to challenge Siena, the only local first-tier team. This team ranked No.14 in the league after the end of this round.

For Piacenza, the only disadvantage of this round of competition may be that after the away challenge to Chievo just now, it is followed by the boat ride to Siena.

However, on the Piacenza training ground, when Conte looked at the players who didn't look tired at all, his heart immediately settled down. Obviously, the morale boost brought about by the four-game winning streak is at its peak, and the team is fully capable of challenging the five-game winning streak.

The two-day training time is really not long. In order to save time, Conte even only practiced the tactics set against Siena once in the team's training, and then came the day before the game.

On this day, Conte did not make any adjustments in arranging the team's starting lineup. Since there is no sign of a decline in the state of the players, the players who started the previous round will continue to get starting opportunities in this round. The team's formation is still 433.

After arranging tomorrow's lineup, Conte did not forget to give hope to other substitute players. He clearly told the players that if he can take the lead early in tomorrow's game, he will make substitutions as soon as possible to give the substitute players more opportunities to play.

As a result, every player in Piacenza who went with the team naturally seemed eager to try, no matter whether they were starters or substitutes, they were gearing up for the team's likely five-game winning streak.

Early the next morning, all the team members gathered in the club parking lot. As the team bus swayed out of Piacenza, Piacenza began their journey to the away game again.

At the Siena Franchi Stadium, this team whose home uniform is very similar to the Bianconeri is warming up under the cheers of the home fans. The team's coach stands on the sidelines and directs the players meticulously. Obviously, he is very afraid of the upcoming Piacenza team.

After a while, with bursts of sharp boos, Piacenza players wearing away white uniforms also poured into the stadium from the player tunnel.

"Shhhhhhh!!!"

In an away game, the biggest disadvantage is nothing more than the wild boos of more than 1 to [-] spectators. As players, everyone is still human at heart, and human beings will be affected by the external environment. When tens of thousands of people boo you together, no one can pat their chests and say that they will never be affected in the slightest.

When you dribble the ball, you are booed; when you are on the court, you are booed; when you make mistakes, you are still booed;

After more than half a season of tempering, the players of Piacenza have now made great progress. Even Cassia, who has a fiery temper, only frowned when he heard deafening boos when he entered the field, and he did not lose control of his emotions during the previous game.

Conte stood on the sidelines and looked at the players who were calm and training as usual. He was very satisfied. The performance of these young people under him has proved that each of them is a malleable talent through the performance of more than half a season.

Soon, the warm-up of the two teams came to an end. After simply returning to the locker room to recuperate for a while, the stadium staff knocked on the doors of the two teams.

"CCTV, CCTV, hello everyone!"

Familiar voice, familiar people, this game held at 20:[-] pm BJ time once again brought extremely high ratings to CCTV [-], which broadcast the game live. After the brief preview, Liu Jianhong's smiling face also appeared in the commentary room: "Welcome to the second round of Serie A No.[-], Siena vs. Piacenza at home. I am Liu Jianhong."

During the period of Liu Jianhong's opening remarks, the players of the two teams on the field had also stood up. The referee on duty simply calibrated his watch and then blew the whistle to start the game.

Liu Feng, who won the captain's guessing game, chose the kick-off right for the team. After hearing the whistle, he stood in front of the kick-off point and gently pushed the ball to Cassia in front of him.

This time, Piacenza didn't play aggressively at the beginning, Conte changed tactics after his team won a series of victories in a tough way, at least at the beginning of this game, he set up a possession attacking strategy for his team.

Therefore, at the beginning of the game, the scene of Piacenza's second attack that fans were expecting did not appear, and the protagonist on the field changed from Liu Feng, who frequently appeared in the camera at the beginning, to Marchisio, the core of Piacenza's playmaker.

Under Marchisio's scheduling, Piacenza has been in control of the situation in the opening three and 10 minutes. Although they accidentally lost the ball a few times, they quickly regained the ball under the pressure of the tough duo of Nainggolan and Nocerino.

And their opponent, Siena, who had put on a strict defense from the beginning, also became very uncomfortable because of Piacenza's sudden change of play.

The head coach of this team even has the power of Piacenza's offensive line, so the tactics set for the team before the game are defensive counterattacks, but now Piacenza firmly controls the ball at his feet and attacks without panic.

In the end, because the team didn't touch the ball within 10 minutes, Siena's coach finally couldn't bear it anymore and began to adjust the team's tactics and formation.
