Chapter 160 The League Ends
Bologna, who won this game, has accumulated enough morale and has taken the initiative to control his own destiny.

Although due to Udinese's win, they and Naples, who have 58 points together, are sure that they have no hope of the Champions League; but the rival Inter Milan lost the ball and are currently one point behind them, so Bologna only needs to play in the next away game. If you don't lose to Parma, which is currently ranked 56th with 7 points, you will definitely be able to qualify for the UEFA Cup.

And another qualification for the Europa League has basically been taken away by Lazio. Lazio won this round heartily and is currently ranked fourth with 59 points.

Due to the excellent situation, Bologna is relatively relaxed up and down, the players are talking and laughing in training, and Pioli occasionally makes a wisecrack in training.

It seems that everything is going in a good direction. Club President Guaraldi also came to the training base to encourage the players, promising that if the team qualified for the Europa League next season, the club will provide a bonus of 90 euros. Everyone distributes.

For Bologna, who has always been stingy, this is already a remarkable generosity.You must know that Shi Hao’s salary in Bologna is already considered high. Another core member of the team, Diamanti, only has a pre-tax weekly salary of 2 euros, and captain Diwayo only has a pre-tax pre-tax salary of 5 euros. previous weekly salary.

After the 90 euros are allocated, players who have made outstanding contributions to the team, such as Shi Hao, Diwayo, and Diamanti, will definitely get the bulk, which is equivalent to several weeks' salary.

Optimism permeates the team, and no one thinks they will lose to Parma.

So when the game progressed to the 5th minute on the afternoon of May 14th, Parma's Giovinco took a corner kick and Biabiani headed the ball into Bologna's net. The entire Bologna team looked shocked and disbelieving. .

If they win this game, Parma will accumulate 59 points, they will squeeze out Bologna and get tickets for the UEFA Cup.

Bologna has one foot standing on the edge of the cliff. If they lose here, they will miss the Europa League and their efforts all season will be in vain.

Before the end of the first half, Bologna, unwilling to fail, launched several attacks on Parma's goal, but all failed.

At halftime, the atmosphere in the locker room was tense.Pioli's eyes moved slowly, staying on each player for a few seconds.Everyone was looking forward to him speaking, and worried that he would curse people if he spoke, and they were all anxious.

Shi Hao took a sip of water, massaged himself to relax his muscles, and didn't pay much attention to what Pioli would say.

His performance in the first half was mediocre, but that was because he was marked too tightly, and he often attracted the attention of two or three defensive teammates of Parma alone, and he also passed a lot of good goals. It can be said that he has completed their tactical responsibilities.

In this game, Bologna continued the 3412 formation of the previous game. He partnered with Diwayo as a striker. In 45 minutes, he fed Diwayo at least 3 good cakes, but the captain’s condition has indeed declined sharply. He didn't even eat the bread, so he could only sigh.

"The reason why I don't speak is because I don't need to say anything," Pioli finally said slowly, "Whether you can play in Europe next season depends on you, not on me. The next thing is to see whether you are Whether I have a firm will or a strong desire to win, what I can do is already very limited."

Everyone listens attentively.

"In the second half, we had no choice but to attack. Parma's central defense was very tight, so in the second half we went wide. We didn't have an advantage in height, so we tried to pass low and flat balls when crossing from the bottom, or hit them as far as possible. Later. Specifically in terms of running positions, I ask you..."

Pioli didn't speak for too long, leaving a few minutes for the players to think for themselves.No one spoke, only the sound of gasping in the locker room.

……

After the second half started, Shi Hao became more active.He will not stay in Bologna next season, and the bonus is not worth his hard work, but he still has system tasks to complete. Not only must he win this game, he must score at least 2 goals to tie Ibrahimovic The number of goals - the premise is that Ibrahimovic does not score in this game.

In the 53rd minute, Shi Hao changed position to the bottom on the right. Near the bottom line, he knocked down Paletta and passed the inverted triangle to Diwayo.Diwayo shot directly with his right foot from the corner of the small penalty area, but put a big plane.He held his head in frustration and did not move for a long time.

Pioli also lost confidence in Divayo's state, and quickly replaced him with Aquafresca, and then replaced Moleo with Ramirez to strengthen the attack on the wing.

Ramirez's play had an effect. In the 71st minute, he dribbled along the left, passed Giovinco and Modesto in a row, and then hit the ball across the center.

Shi Hao stepped forward to catch the ball, but opened his legs at the moment of touching the ball to let the football miss, and he himself slanted into the penalty area.Diamanti rushed over and made a straight pass. Shi Hao received the ball about 14 meters away from the goal. He took advantage of the opportunity to dunk the ball to the left, avoiding Zacardo's outstretched leg, and then shot low with his left foot. near corner.Parma goalkeeper Mirante had already moved ahead of time, but he might have been blocked by Zacardo, and the movement of falling to the ground was half a beat slow and did not touch the football.He can only hope that the post will stand out, but the ball went straight to the dead corner, rubbing the inside of the post and hitting the net.

At this moment, the 5000 Bologna fans present made a huge cheer at the Tardini Stadium, suppressing the voices of the 14000 Parma fans.Shi Hao rushed to the stands where Bologna fans gathered, took off his jersey and waved it around.At this time, he has been tested in professional football for more than a year, and his figure is already angular, which is very interesting.His actions made the Bologna fans even more crazy, and even a female fan took off her coat and threw it down, standing there in her underwear and shouting.

The referee rushed over and showed Shi Hao a yellow card, but Shi Hao shrugged his shoulders and said it didn't matter. He won't be in Serie A next season, so what if he accumulated yellow cards and was suspended.

At this time, it was the turn of the Parma people to be anxious.After being equalized, they played several waves of high-quality offense.Especially in the 77th minute, Giovinco kicked the ball from the left side of the penalty area and hoisted it into the penalty area. Pellet hit the post with a header, which made Bologna break out in a cold sweat.

As time went by, Parma's players became more and more anxious, and the defenders made frequent assists, which also gave Shi Hao more opportunities.

In the 84th minute, Shi Hao made a two-for-one cooperation with Ramirez on the left. After getting the ball in the left corner of the penalty area, he ran all the way to the bottom line. Zacardo followed him closely.When he got near the bottom line, Shi Hao didn't slow down, and directly raised his left leg to make a cross.

Zacardo was a little behind Shi Hao. At this time, in order to block Shi Hao's cross, he put his shovel directly, put his left leg on the ground, and lifted his right leg a little to block Shi Hao's cross.

Unexpectedly, Shi Hao's left leg lifted up and fell down quickly, and he actually kicked the ball back. He made a 150-degree turn, and then continued to rush towards the goal.After taking a few steps, seeing Mirante's position was a bit forward, Shi Hao kicked up decisively and rubbed an arc with the inner instep of his right foot.

The football flew high, passed Mirante's arm, then fell suddenly, hitting the junction of the crossbar and the far post and bouncing off.

Paletta hurried to the goal line to clear the siege, but when the referee blew his whistle, he pointed his finger at the center circle.

The referee believes that the whole of the football has crossed the goal line when it fell, and the goal is valid!
