Volume 1: Heroes Appear, People Pay Attention. Chapter 138: Heartbroken (First Update with Guarantee, Outbreak Notice)

Chapter 138: Broken Heart (First update with guarantee, outbreak notice)

Cassano's hospitalization due to illness has become the biggest news in Italian football these days, and even Naples has been affected.

But no matter what, the team's first priority is the game. Under such circumstances, Mazzarri had to remind his teammates to return their attention to the game.

Before the second round against Barcelona, ​​it was the 32nd round of the league, when Naples challenged Lazio away.

Before the game, Lazio and Napoli players pulled out a banner that read: "Antonio, we are always with you!"

Use this way to encourage Cassano.

Although Cassano had previously played for Lazio's rival Roma for a long time, the grudges in football are really not worth mentioning in the face of life.

Although Mazzarri repeatedly warned his teammates not to be affected by Cassano's unknown condition and to comfort Cassano with a victory.

But the team was still affected by this incident, and most of the players seemed absent-minded. The specific cause of Cassano's illness has not yet been identified, so everyone only knows that it is a heart problem, but they don't know what the specific problem is and what impact it will have on Cassano.

With these things always on their minds, how can they concentrate on the game?

They shook hands with Lazio 1:1 away from home.

In fact, this result is good enough. You must know that Mazzarri sent all substitutes... Chen Yingxiong did not get the chance to play until the 77th minute of the game. In the following ten minutes of the game, Chen Yingxiong worked very hard, However, he did not score a goal. When the whole team was in poor condition, he was limited by this and his goals were also affected. In addition, there was too little time left for him. Mazzarri did not let him go up at all. He scored a goal and beat Lazio, but let him get a feel for the game and treat it as a warm-up.

The man who scored a goal for the team was Sanchez.

Cassano has a heart problem and he doesn't know how long he will miss the game. Sanchez, who has been playing as a substitute for Cassano and Arshavin before, has also been promoted to the main team. In order to keep Sanchez in the game, he started the game and was replaced in the 65th minute.

Because of Cassano's illness, Sanchez won the starting position. One might think that Sanchez is the happiest person, but that is not the case.

After the goal, Sanchez lifted up his jersey to reveal a T-shirt with words of encouragement for Cassano written inside.

This scene shows that he is not happy about Cassano's illness.

When being interviewed after the game, Chen Yingxiong was surrounded by reporters. In Cassano's exclusive interview, he mentioned the help Chen Yingxiong gave him in the past few days. He is the key figure in Cassano's ability to regain his confidence. They are good friends. So naturally everyone wants to hear what Chen Yingxiong has to say to his good friends.

"I'm sorry that I didn't score a goal and didn't bring him a victory..." Chen Yingxiong shook his head and said helplessly. The whole team's performance was average, and there was nothing he could do. "But we still have the Champions League, and I will score goals in the Champions League. I am not afraid if the opponent is Barcelona. I have already scored two goals at Camp Nou. Why can't I continue to score goals after returning home? Not only will I have to The goal is dedicated to him, and I will also dedicate the victory to him!”

After speaking, he poked the camera lens.

Just after the game against Lazio in Naples, the results of Cassano's more detailed examination came out. The cause was finally identified.

Because the foramen ovale in the heart does not close, resulting in insufficient blood supply to the brain, symptoms similar to stroke are caused.

This is not a serious heart disease, and it is very simple to cure. All it takes is an umbrella surgery. Under today's medical conditions, this surgery requires little effort and carries no risks.

But that doesn't bring relief. Because Cassano may not lose his life because of this heart disease, but he may still face the end of early retirement.

Recovery from a heart attack can be long or short, depending entirely on the length of the person's history of heart disease. Patients with a longer medical history are more difficult to recover from. Not to mention that Cassano is still a football player. He often needs to engage in fierce confrontations and sports, which puts a lot of pressure on his heart.

In fact, patent foramen ovale is a very common heart disease. The foramen ovale is a normal physiological structure during fetal development and is not a congenital defect. It is the innate channel between the left and right atria. The umbilical vein blood from the mother officially enters the left heart chamber of the fetus through this channel, and then is not distributed throughout the body to provide the oxygen and nutrients needed for the development of the fetus. After the fetus is born, due to respiratory exchange - in layman's terms, with the baby's first cry - the pulmonary blood flow increases, the pressure in the left atrium increases, and the foramen ovale valve is compressed to close it. The foramen ovale usually closes within the first year of life. If the foramen ovale does not close in children older than three years old, it is called "patent foramen ovale". About 20% to 2% of adults The foramen ovale of Fifteen is not completely closed. Generally speaking, this situation will not have any impact on life and normal life, so surgery is generally not required for patent foramen ovale.

But this is for ordinary people. Cassano is different. He is a football player. Football players have very high demands on the heart. The heart load is heavy and the symptoms of the disease are particularly obvious, which is why Cassano has symptoms similar to a stroke.

Cassano is now 28 years old. After July 12 this year, he will be 29 years old. At this age, he has to recover for who knows how long due to heart disease. When will he come back?

No one can tell.

And even if he comes back, how good will he be?

If the form plummets and there is no place in the Naples team, what is the difference between this and retirement?

Even if he recovers quickly, who can guarantee that his heart will not have problems again during high-intensity games and training?

What if something goes wrong repeatedly?

Retirement?

This seems to be the only option.

So in fact, even if the cause of Cassano's illness is found, it is not something to be optimistic about.

But Cassano's performance is more positive and optimistic than people think.

After the Naples team returned from Rome, many teammates went to the hospital to visit their teammates.

Everyone who comes out to face the media will mention Cassano's mental state.

"He is very good, he even jokes with me. From my point of view, I think he is no different from before..." Captain Paul Cannavaro said to reporters.

Hamsik: "Antonio is in a good mental state and I am very happy too."

Arshavin: "He said he would return to the team as soon as possible. I believe he was not trying to comfort us..."

Sanchez: "He asked me to treat him to dinner because I took his main position... Of course, it was a joke. Everyone knows that he likes to joke, but it is really great to see him joking like this!"

In addition to his teammates, players from other teams also took the time to come to Naples to visit him.

For example, Pazzini, Cassano's good friend when he played for Sampdoria, drove to Naples to visit his friend.

Naples' general manager Bigone also made a special trip to the hospital to visit Cassano and brought greetings from club owner Aurelio De Laurentiis. In the name of the club, Cassano was told not to worry about anything. The club will cover all treatment costs and that he should take good care of his injuries. No matter how long it takes for him to come back, Naples is waiting for him. He does not need to rush back and cause the condition to relapse.

In this rush of visiting patients, there is no trace of Chen Yingxiong.

However, the media did not blame Chen Yingxiong, because now everyone knew that the man in black who broke into the hospital that night was actually Chen Yingxiong. According to Cassano himself, when he needed help the most, was in the most pain and despair, it was Chen Yingxiong who suddenly appeared to help him regain his confidence, and he was able to face his cruel fate with such positivity and optimism.

The media didn't know what method he used to encourage Cassano. Maybe it had something to do with his outfit? But the media couldn't figure out how this weird black outfit could give Cassano confidence...

※ ※ ※

The media couldn't figure out that this was an agreement between Chen Yingxiong and Cassano.

In order to fulfill this agreement, Chen Yingxiong is training crazily in the dungeon. The crazy scenes make both Inzaghi and Maldini feel a lot of pressure...

With such crazy training, he naturally had no time to visit Cassano in the hospital.

"I said hero, after training like this, do you still have the physical fitness to compete? The game against Barcelona is not easy..."

"It's okay, I came back to life with full blood and full health as soon as I took a nap."

"Do you also believe Brother Chun... In fact, you are so crazy and can't upgrade or do anything. Why do you have to work so hard?"

"There is a burning fire in my heart. If I don't vent it out, I'm afraid I will burn myself first."

"Who are you going to burn now? It won't be us, right?"

"Haha! How is that possible? I want to burn Barcelona!"

He did not score a goal against Lazio, and Chen Yingxiong was very upset. He wanted to use goals to comfort Cassano and tell him to persist and persist. Now the latest game is Barcelona, ​​and he is naturally targeting this opponent.

Scoring in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals against Barcelona, ​​eliminating Barcelona, ​​and leading the team into the semi-finals is the best encouragement for Cassano.

And for him, although Naples lost in the first round, they scored two away goals. The important thing in this game is that they can eliminate their opponents with a small victory at home. He didn't think it was something difficult to do.

Naples, back at home, has super confidence and combat effectiveness.

An example illustrates this point. Naples defeated Real Madrid with one goal at home, knocking out the La Liga giants and giving Real Madrid the eighth consecutive dream for six consecutive years. In that game, the linesman once said this to the team's captain Paul Cannavaro: "You guys It’s all supermen on this court.”

Yes, at home, Napoli never believed they would lose.

ps, the outbreak will occur at the third update tomorrow, and the outbreak will be even bigger at the fifth update the day after tomorrow.

The reason why the number of chapters in the outbreak is different in the two days is that I think it is better to read the last five chapters in one go for better results...
