Prominence in Football Community

Finally there was news of Gao Zheng again.

He's still playing football, but it's not professional football, it's...amateur football.

Yesterday, a netizen posted a photo on Weibo. In the photo, Gao Zheng was wearing a jersey with the name of a certain company printed on the back. Standing was a middle-aged man with a fat body. From the looks of it, he might be the leader of the naming company...

Gao Zheng in front of the camera smiled brightly compared to Scissorhands. But I don’t know why, when I saw this photo, I felt a little sad—a star of hope who “can change the future of Chinese football” has been touted by the Chinese media for several years and given hope by countless Chinese fans. Standing on this crude artificial turf field with such an attitude is the greatest waste of his talent, and it is also a crime.

So naturally, under this Weibo, there are a lot of scolding from fans who are disappointed with the status quo of Chinese football. Some people scolded quite politely, while others scolded so badly.

I can understand the feelings of these people, after all, Gao Zheng was once a genius they were infinitely optimistic about.

I also remember when Gao Zheng joined the AC Milan youth training camp, what kind of "grand event" was in the media - it was the first time I saw our media can play so many tricks to praise a person... …

At that time, I was as excited as those other fans, thinking that Chinese football had a promising future. We look forward to seeing Gao Zheng wearing an AC Milan jersey on the San Siro Stadium in the future-even though I am not an AC Milan fan, if there is such a day, I am willing to fall in love with AC Milan for Gao Zheng.

To be honest, Gao Zheng's performance in the early years of AC Milan's youth training camp was good, and he was worthy of the domestic media's praise of him and the expectations of our fans. The evaluation of "can change the future of Chinese football" was not made by the Chinese media itself, but the real evaluation of the Italian media. At that time, he represented AC Milan U16 and had just won the U16 league championship, and he himself was also selected for that tournament. best player.

He is full of aura and imagination in playing football. Although he is tall, he has delicate foot skills that do not match his height. I have not watched many games of him. After all, it is not easy to watch Italian U16 game videos, but Judging from the few highlights of him, Gao Zheng does have a sense of the ball that is much higher than that of his peers. It is really a pleasure to watch him play. His performance is worthy of the evaluation of the Italian media.

Because of his outstanding performance in U16, Gao Zheng was transferred to U18 in the second year at the age of 16, and he became a skipping student. At that time, the domestic media reported the incident in an excited tone, and many fans also cheered for Gao Zheng.

But looking at it now, maybe this kind of skipping is not a good thing, but more like trying to encourage growth...

Sixteen-year-old Gao Zheng has a tall height, but his muscular strength has not yet fully developed. In addition, his outstanding performance in the U16 in the first season made his opponents pay more attention to him. In the hand-to-hand fight with his opponents, he didn't take advantage of it.

And the most worrying thing happened-in February 2008, in a youth team game, Gao Zheng suffered a serious foul, and his left ankle was shoveled and deformed by the opponent.

He had surgery and then spent thirteen months recuperating.

Before he was injured, he was the main center of AC Milan U18. When he returned from injury in April 2009, there was no place for him in the team.

In the 2009-2010 season, Gao Zheng, who has turned 18, should have been promoted to U19. The 20-year-old Gao Zheng is considered an older player.

But even in this team,

It is still difficult for him to be the main force, and it is even difficult for him to be selected for the 18-man squad. He occasionally enters the squad once and does not get a chance to play.

Moreover, his body is still injured-in the first half of the 2009-2010 season, he missed a total of two months of games and training due to injuries.

Gao Zheng's football career took a hairpin turn.

At the end of 2009, he had half a year remaining on his contract with the club. According to his performance before the injury, he should have signed a professional contract with AC Milan long ago. And the news I heard is that AC Milan terminated the contract with Gao Zheng half a year in advance. It is said that this early termination is related to Gao Zheng's frequent injuries.

This is the last time I heard about Gao Zheng, he left AC Milan, no one knows where he went, even the omnipotent media couldn't find him, he seemed to disappear in the vast crowd .

A once-high-profile talent just disappeared.

To this day, pictures of him on the field have been posted online.

It turned out that he was still alive. Judging by his smile, he seems to be alive and well.

That's right, you don't have to kick the ball, but life always goes on. It’s not the end of the world if you can’t be the star of hope who can change the future of Chinese football, or the first star to gain a foothold in the giants. It’s also a good idea to change your way, change your identity, and live your life well. a kind of happiness.

Who cares what others say?

It's just that for me, the genius who used to bring me joy and hope, he died.
