Chapter 120: 30 goals !

In the 30th round of Serie A, Inter Milan faced Atalanta away. In the first encounter of the season, Inter Milan suffered a significant upset defeat to their opponents.

Facing the pressure of the title race, they could not afford to make any mistakes in this match.

However, their worries seemed to materialize when, in the 17th minute of the first half, Atalanta capitalized on a mistake in Inter Milan's defense, with forward Comandini scoring a goal.

The Blue Arena suddenly turned into a sea of joy, with fans cheering for their team's excellent performance. Meanwhile, Inter Milan players wore expressions of disappointment, fearing a repeat of the last game's outcome.

But no, this couldn't happen again! Wang Feng gritted his teeth, his eyes fixed on Atalanta's goal, filled with endless determination.

Just five minutes later, thanks to Wang Feng's pressing, Atalanta's center-back Zauri made a passing error, intercepted by Konsciakao, who organized a counterattack on the spot for Inter Milan.

He passed the ball to Wang Feng on the right flank, who dribbled near the sideline. Despite Zunoni's attempts to interfere and steal the ball, Wang Feng steadily advanced, neither losing possession nor going out of bounds.

Seeing Zunoni unable to stop Wang Feng, Carerra and Sara quickly retreated to provide defensive cover, blocking Wang Feng's path forward.

Wang Feng first slowed down to evade Carerra, then, with a change of direction at his feet, broke through Zunoni and Sara's encirclement, entering the opponent's half.

He then swiftly cut inside into the penalty area, where three Atalanta players were positioned to cover the front, middle, and back. Inter Milan's support had not caught up yet.

In a split second, Wang Feng decided to take on the challenge alone. As he entered the penalty area, Atalanta's defender Paganin quickly stepped up to defend. Wang Feng took a small step forward, feinted to go one way, then quickly shifted his weight and cut inside from the left, deceiving Paganin.

Before the other two defenders could arrive, he unleashed a shot, aiming for the bottom right corner. Goalkeeper Tabi made a desperate dive but couldn't reach the ball in time. It grazed the post and flew into the net.

"The ball's in!! Goooooooal!! Wang Feng scores a fantastic goal!"

"While the entire Inter Milan team was engulfed in the shadow of defeat, Wang Feng once again steps up, tearing through Atalanta's defense with a fluid breakthrough, contributing a crucial goal for Inter Milan."

"Oh my, the director just reminded me that this is Wang Feng's 30th goal of the Serie A season. Since 1959, no player in Serie A has scored thirty or more goals in a single season!"

"This is truly incredible! Wang Feng has achieved this long-standing record. Remember, this record is one that even legends like Zidane, Baggio, and Ronaldo have not been able to achieve."

"He's not even nineteen yet. It's imaginable that this superstar is still growing. What kind of legend will he become? Many are eagerly waiting to see."

Some Atalanta fans also spontaneously stood up, applauding Wang Feng's brilliant goal and his insane performance of thirty goals in the league.

Inter Milan players were even more excited, jumping on Wang Feng's shoulders one by one, stacking up like a human pyramid.

The referee and Atalanta players tacitly did not interrupt this scene, as it was a recreation of a forty-year-old tradition. It was understandable to celebrate for a while longer.

The Serie A's defensive intensity and slow pace of play make it the toughest among the top five leagues. For any Serie A forward to score over thirty goals in a single season is considered an unreachable feat.

Yet, Wang Feng, who just joined Inter Milan, has accomplished this seemingly impossible record.

The first half ended with a score of 1-1. During halftime in Inter Milan's dressing room, there was a cheerful atmosphere, with everyone talking and laughing about Wang Feng's thirty goals.

At this moment, Wang Feng stepped forward, instantly attracting everyone's attention. "Everyone, my goals wouldn't have been possible without your help. Thank you, everyone," he said, bowing to his teammates.

Applause broke out, and players like Matrazzi and Konsciakao even cheered. Then, Wang Feng changed the subject, "Scoring goals makes me happy, but I want the victory in this match even more, and then to lift the league trophy that belongs to us!"

Coach Cooper nodded in satisfaction from the side. It seemed that Wang Feng always maintained a clear mind, never letting success get to his head.

He then stepped forward and said, "Wang Feng is right. Let's aim for another goal in the second half and take all three points!" He began to outline the tactical arrangements for the second half.

Everyone refocused, attentively listening to the instructions. They were determined not to let this historic moment be tarnished.

As the second half commenced, in the 67th minute, Inter Milan orchestrated an attack in the opponent's half. After Wang Feng's breakthrough on the right flank and a subsequent cross, Leccoba's shot was saved by Atalanta's goalkeeper Tabi, but Ronaldo, following up, tapped the ball into the net.

2-1! Inter Milan reversed the score!

After scoring, Ronaldo soared at the Blue Arena. Although he hasn't scored many goals this season, many of his goals have come at crucial moments, which satisfies him greatly.

This score held until the final whistle, and Inter Milan secured the victory in this match, widening the path to the championship!

As news of Inter Milan's victory over Atalanta reached Turin, Juventus was preparing to face Perugia. Trailing in points, they felt immense pressure.

Coach Lippi said in the dressing room, "Guys, there's no need to be so anxious. There are still five matches left in the league, and our points deficit can be overturned with just one game. So, we just need to play well in each match."

In such a situation, Juventus's stars stepped up. Trezeguet scored twice, while Del Piero and Nedved each contributed a goal, leading them to a 4-0 victory.

After the match, the Milan Sports Daily described the current title race as "white-hot," stating, "Wang Feng has just achieved the remarkable record of thirty goals in the league, helping Inter Milan maintain the lead in the standings."

"Juventus has staged the largest points difference game of the season. Both sides refuse to give in, and the points gap is very small, so the outcome is still uncertain."

The Turin Sports Daily stated, "Juventus's failure to pursue Wang Feng last summer may be one of their biggest regrets."

"Considering Wang Feng's current performance, he still has a lot of room for improvement. It is feared that in the coming years, Wang Feng will become an indelible nightmare for the Bianconeri."

The Rome Sports Daily commented on Wang Feng's thirty goals, saying, "We may have to wait another fifty years to see another genius like him who completes this record."
