From the man behind the football king to the football king

Chapter 303 Single-season goal record in Serie A history

At 3pm local time on April 10, 2016 in Italy, Ferraris Stadium.

In the 32nd round of Serie A, Udinese challenged Sampdoria as a guest.

After the game started, Udinese turned the tables, actively pressed forward, launched attacks, and tried to overwhelm their opponents from the beginning. But Sampdoria was obviously well prepared for this. Not only did they actively defend, but they also launched a sharp counterattack in the seventh minute, penetrating Udinese's goal.

Before the game, Sampdoria head coach Vincent Montella publicly stated in the media that Sampdoria would try its best to snipe Bruno.

Montella, nicknamed "Glider", was also a famous shooter in Serie A during his player days. He scored 141 Serie A goals in his career and helped Roma win the Serie A championship in the 1999-2000 season.

Montella's coaching career has also been relatively successful, especially when coaching Viola Fiorentina, he also led the team to the European War and led Fiorentina to the semi-finals of the Europa League last season.

"Last season, he won the Serie A Golden Boot as a midfielder, which was surprising enough. Unexpectedly, this season he broke the best record in Serie A history held by Nordahl."

The entire scoring process is very simple and direct, but very effective.

Beyond the legend!

In the 20th minute, Bruno suddenly retreated from the frontcourt. After receiving the ball with his back, he knocked it back to Badu. He turned around and quickly inserted it. Badu understood the situation and passed the overhead ball into the penalty area.

"Sampdoria coach Montella, who threatened to snipe Bruno before the game, had to admit after the game that they couldn't stop Bruno at all. They had tried their best, but Bruno was unstoppable."

………………

If his coaching staff can really produce the Golden Boot winner with the most goals in Serie A history, it will be an honor for him.

They were the first to concede the ball, but Udinese played in no hurry at all. Bruno was in no rush to score or equalize the score. Not only that, he also took the initiative to comfort his teammates and signaled everyone to stay calm.

In addition, Bruno usually gives gifts during the holidays and often invites the whole team to dinner. He is also the second captain of the team. Everyone respects him. His popularity is also very good, so he leads the team 2:1 and establishes a good relationship. After the victory, everyone began to reciprocate the favor and consciously wanted to help Bruno score.

After leading 2:1, everyone in Udinese is still working hard.

"Guidolin is also a very good manager and he trusts Bruno unwaveringly, so I have no doubts about the results Bruno has achieved today. Even more, I am very much looking forward to seeing him in the rest of the league this season. Continue to score goals and push this record to new heights!”

However, he was fired by Fiorentina last summer due to a breakdown in the relationship with the team chairman.

No one said it, but they had to admit in their hearts that the possibility of the Champions League semifinal team defeating Atletico Madrid was extremely slim.

Bruno was able to maintain such a mentality and rationality in the face of a once-in-a-century legendary record, which made everyone in the Udinese team admire him greatly, and they all benefited from Bruno.

………………

Not just because of the strength, but also because of the schedule.

Finally, he bowed towards the area where the visiting team fans were in the stands and thanked them for their support, which brought him huge applause and cheers!

And this time the substitution really quickly yielded miraculous results.

Reason told him that entering the quarterfinals and losing to Atletico Madrid was already a satisfactory result. But emotionally, he still doesn't like losing.

Now, he's leaving!

Live TV footage even captured many Udinese fans crying. But surprisingly, no one left him alone, not even the crying fans. Because they all know that Bruno left to find a broader stage and challenge higher limits.

With a score of 1:1, the two sides ended the first half.

In just three days, it is obvious that Udinese cannot return to its best condition. Coupled with the loss of Bruno, Udinese seemed to have lost its engine and eventually lost 0:2 at the Calderon Stadium. The defending champion fell in front of the semi-finals.

After changing sides and fighting again in the second half, Guidolin adjusted the team's tactics and launched a wave of offensive at the beginning of the second half. Bruno assisted Di Natale to score and overtake the score.

Even the home team Sampdoria fans gave him applause.

Everyone knows that this may be his last season in Serie A.

This is Bruno's 35th goal this season, tying the historical record of 35 goals in a single season set by Nordahl in the 1949-1950 season!

After playing for ten minutes, Immobile suddenly pulled to the right to receive the ball. He turned around from the front of the penalty area, dribbled the ball into the penalty area, and crossed to the goal.

Bruno used acceleration to get rid of all the defensive players, and directly inserted into the penalty area. Facing the falling ball, he jumped in front of the attacking goalkeeper Viviano, and then picked the ball over the goalkeeper again and fell towards the goal behind him. .

Bruno changed positions with Immobile and crossed into the middle. Bruno understood it and rushed to the goal. He easily pushed the lower left corner from the middle and scored his 36th goal of the season!

After Bruno scored, he was so excited that he rushed towards Immobile and jumped directly on him.

Broken!

He finally broke Nordahl's 66-year record!

In the past three years, they have witnessed Bruno step by step from a rookie here to a first-tier European star.

With one more goal, he will break Nordahl's 35-goal record for the most goals in a single season in Serie A history.

In addition to Conte, Portugal national team coach Santos also accepted an interview with Corriere della Sera. Santos said Bruno is the most work-ethical player he has ever seen and is a very hard-working player.

In mid-November last year, Montella became Sampdoria's head coach, replacing Walter Zenga who was fired. The first game he led Sampdoria was a visit to the Friuli Stadium to challenge Udinese, but they lost 0:2. Bruno scored a penalty in that game.

Especially like tonight, when I can only sit in the stands and watch the team lose, I feel helpless.

This kind of consecutive double matches in a week is really a huge drain on Udinese.

Maybe many, many years later, when he is old, he will come back here again like other legendary stars.

After the game, almost all Italian newspapers, large and small, focused on Bruno's two goals.

Therefore, breaking Nordahl's historical record and defeating Juventus to retain the Serie A championship has become Bruno's final pursuit this season, and it may also be his last gift to Udinese.

After that, Udinese always controlled the situation on the field, patiently organized and created opportunities.

But there are still six rounds left in the league and everything is not over yet.

"He always tells me with his actions that he is a player that any head coach can completely trust, not only with his goals, but also in every other aspect. He is a natural leader."

"Gazzetta dello Sport" praised Bruno on the front page and believed that he had created miracles for two consecutive seasons.

But there is no way, the schedule is the schedule.

Guidolin quickly replaced Di Natale with Immobile, because the young Immobile has better physical fitness and stronger impact.

Not only do the players think this way, but coach Guidolin also thinks so.

After he got off Immobile, he hugged his teammates one by one, and then ran to the sidelines to hug Guidolin, Portolucci and others, as well as all his teammates on the bench.

Facts have proved that Montella's team started really surprisingly.

What's more, he knew very well that Bruno really wanted it.

In Serie A, Udinese has absolute confidence.

Bruno is so excited!

"If I have anything else to say, I just want to say that I will definitely come back!"

Bruno sat in the stands of the Friuli Stadium the whole time. He watched his team being defeated by his opponents but could do nothing, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

These two goals allowed him to surpass Nordahl and become the player with the most goals in a single season in Serie A history.

Griezmann, who had been inactive at the Friuli Stadium in the last game, shined in the game and scored twice.

Corriere della Sera also published the news that Bruno broke the legendary record as a front-page headline, and also published the comments and praise of Bruno from all walks of life in European football.

1:1!

From the beginning of the second half, Bruno took the initiative to take on the task of attracting more defensive attention and opening up the battle for his teammates. His intention was also very clear, that is, to help the team score and reverse Sampdoria.

“We really can’t use any adjectives to praise him, but he really brought too much shock and excitement to all of us and to the entire Italian football world. He even has a magic that makes people want to worship him. "

………………

After the game, he met with many media interviews, including those from Italy and Spain. He believed that the team was convinced of the loss.

Italian national team coach Conte said he was not surprised at all by Bruno's achievements.

Three days later, Calderon Stadium, Madrid, Spain.

At the beginning, AC Milan's legendary striker completed this record in 37 games, and maintained this record for a full 66 years!

But today, this record was tied, and the person who tied this record was a midfielder, and it only took 32 games!

………………

Scored 36 goals in a single season!

He surpassed Nordahl and became the player with the most goals in a single season in Serie A history!

After saying that, Bruno said nothing more.

He now rushes back to the locker room to comfort his teammates. After all, there is still Serie A waiting for them.
