Section 47 Competition on the field (1)
Time has entered the busy scene of Inter Milan Club in October. The club launched the naming event for the new stadium around the world to receive millions of letters from international fans around the world in just half a month. The workload of handling so many letters really made Inter Milan's newly established fan club dizzy.
The enthusiastic fans come from all over the world, and the names they take are all kinds of strange. An Italian fan is very creative. He believes that the name of the new stadium should be "The Grand Arena of Milan". He believes that the stadium will definitely become a symbol of Milan City in the future, so he gave this name to compare the ancient Colosseum of Rome.
Through Inter Milan's Asian trip and the promotion of China TV stations Inter Milan now has a huge fan group in China. This event Inter Milan also specially published an advertisement in China's Sports Weekly and Football Newspaper, with Inter Milan's contact address attached to the advertisement. Through this promotion, Chinese fans have seized this rare opportunity to contribute their wisdom to Inter Milan. Many letters filled with square characters filled the tables of Yan Siyu, part-time translator of Inter Milan.
The names given by Chinese fans are even more diverse than Italian fans, such as "Blue and Black Zone", "Inter Milan's Territory", and "INTER Stadium". One of them is probably because the child got his name and almost made Xiao Hua spit out. "The Universe Super Invincible World's No. 1 Inter Milan Football Stadium"...
Finally, after a series of screenings, Xiao Hua and others selected three of the names as the final candidates, and then published a format advertisement for votes in newspapers around the world, writing these three candidate names for fans to choose their favorites and send them to the club. The name with the most votes in the end will be the final home name. In addition, all fans participating in the event will have the opportunity to share 20 opportunities to travel to Milan for a week.
The three candidates are: "Angelo Morati Stadium", a plan named after the chairman of the most glorious period of international history, which shows the glorious history of the international community. It also shows that this name inspires latecomers to catch up with the glory achieved by their predecessors; "Blue and Black Zone" is a very fashionable name that is very easy to welcome the love of young people, and the name is also very compatible with the main color of the stadium; "Inter Milan Centennial Stadium" is the first time I heard it, which makes people think of Inter Milan's ownership of this stadium for only 100 years, but if you carefully taste it, you will find that the word "Centennial" often represents eternity, symbolizing that the new stadium will become the eternal home stadium of Inter Milan.
The league is in full swing in October. On October 30, the last day of October, Inter Milan ushered in an important away game in Milan City. The away game played in Milan City was undoubtedly the enemy of the city's Red and Black Army AC Milan, who had played countless grudges with Inter Milan in this city for hundreds of years.
This round is the 8th round of this season. Before this game, Inter Milan ranked fifth with 4 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. In the last three rounds, Inter Milan only won 1 win, 2 draws, which can be said to be in a very good state. AC Milan temporarily ranked first with 5 wins, 2 draws and unbeaten. However, since the league has just started the first and fourth places, the points in the first and fourth places are only 3 points different, Inter Milan can immediately exchange positions with AC Milan if they win.
Derby means hatred, and it means building one's own happiness on the pain of others. Inter Milan and AC Milan have a very profound understanding of these words.
At Meacha Stadium, AC Milan was quietly waiting for the arrival of their arch-rivals in the city. This season, their only goal was to win the championship and restore the glory of the Dream Team. Since AC Milan fans occupied 70% of the seats in the home stands, Inter Milan fans were assigned to seats in the North Stand and a small area nearby. However, the slightest number of trends did not suppress Inter Milan's singing by the other side. The international fans who received the tickets today were the most fanatical! A loyal group of fighters! They are now working hard to fight against 2 or even 3 opponents with one person, and they don't look at the disadvantage at all! The more touching fans of the North Stand also played a banner and said "We Still Love You".
In the far east, China's CCTV obtained the broadcast rights of this game through Xiao Hua's efforts in Italy, and the Milan Derby was able to appear in front of Chinese audiences in the form of live broadcast for the first time. It is no exaggeration to say that these two teams currently occupy at least 70% of the hearts of Chinese fans. According to statistics, CCTV's ratings exceeded the 1994 World Cup finals. That night, many universities in China experienced students not returning all night.
"The players of both sides of the coach Zhang have entered the court. Please introduce the starting situation of both sides to our audience." Dazui Han Qiaosheng is currently the male lead of CCTV. Of course, this kind of game cannot be separated from his wonderful commentary.
"Okay, let's take a look at Inter Milan's team first. They have a traditional 442 formation today. The goalkeeper is still Italian national goalkeeper Palioca, and four players on the defense line are Carlos, Cannavaro, Bergomi, and Zanetti. The only surprise today is that the main center back Freci cannot play due to injury. The young player Cannavaro should be replaced. It should be said that Freci's inability to play has a great impact on Inter Milan's backcourt height. Cannavaro and Bergomi are both short defenders. The defense line guarded by both of them has to worry about Inter Milan's defense high ball ability. There is no change in the midfield, Di Biagio, Berti, Lombardo and Costa continue to occupy the main position. The forward line is forward.
Wenger implemented a very good rotation system for four forwards this season. This strategy not only confuses the opponent and mobilizes the enthusiasm of the four players. Delvicio and Baggio are on the court today. It seems that Wenger is also worried that the young players will not be able to withstand such an important game, so today they sent two of the most experienced forwards." Coach Zhang Lu quickly introduced the situation of Inter Milan, and then continued to introduce the lineup of the home team AC Milan. "Today, AC Milan also lined up 442 goalscorer Rossi, the four defenders are: Panucci, Costakuta, Baresi, Maldini, and four midfielders: Albertini, Ambrocini, Futerre and Savicevic, and the forward line is partnered by Via with Simeone."
"The two teams are full of big names, and this game will definitely be very exciting." Han Qiaosheng said.
"Yes, this game should be said to represent the highest level of world football at present. Let's look forward to the start of the game together!"
After the opening, Inter Milan took the lead and launched a frequent offensive. In the 20th minute, Delvicio broke through from the left side, and after three dunks, he made a great cross with a good foot. Baggio in the middle ran flexibly and actually grabbed the landing point under the siege of many tall defenders. He knocked the head of the lion! The ball went straight to the goal.
"Bang!" The ball hit the crossbar without any bias and bounced out of the sideline. With a sigh of relief from the audience AC Milan escaped.
"Guide Zhang, from the current situation, Inter Milan seems to have a relatively large advantage. Do you see if Inter Milan has a great chance of winning today?"
"It's true from the first 20 minutes. Inter Milan performed its best today at the beginning of the game. AC Milan seemed to be beaten up all of a sudden. However, the game was just beginning to start with a strong team like AC Milan, which should soon be in a sluggish state. It's still hard to say how the game will develop next."
Just as Zhang Lu was still talking, the situation on the field had changed. Rossi took the ball with his big foot. Savicevic in the frontcourt got the ball. After two small-scale cooperation with Portuguese star Futerre near the midfield, he broke through to the front of the international penalty area. He looked up at the situation in front of him, and the two defenders were approaching him. Savicevic felt that the pass and shooting opportunities in the middle were not very good. He was very calm and smart and sent the ball to the unguarded left side with a score with his right foot.
Maldini, who was running from behind, had already observed the situation in the penalty area. Since the opponent did not have a height, let them defend the high ball. He did not drag on the ball and made a beautiful cross. The ball flew to the international penalty area with an outward arc.
"This ball is very smart, Inter Milan is a bit dangerous. Today, the two central defenders were a big shorter than the opponent's forward Wei'er. The air ball is their biggest weakness." Zhang Lu keenly observed the situation on the court and analyzed loudly.
Sure enough, Via in the penalty area jumped high and defeated Cannavaro who was close to defending himself to grab the landing point and headed the ball! Palioca, who reflected the rapid response, leaped hard, but he could only make the difference.
1:0 AC Milan took the lead, and miraculously knocked on Inter Milan's door with the first shot in the game.
After scoring the goal, Wei Ah did not celebrate any more, but silently accepted the congratulations from the players. The fans of the audience gave warm applause for his actions. They always respected the loyal players and fans, no matter whether he was from the opponent or his own team.
The height on the back line is a big problem! Cannavaro and Bergomi are really at a disadvantage in figure, and Bergomi is not young anymore. Maybe he should consider introducing a central defender of height. Wenger on the sidelines closed the notebook with depression and thought.
Galliani showed a proud smile in the stands and turned to Xiao Hua and said with a smile: "Masco, there are probably not many derbys in which our two teams share the same venue, but now we win one game, haha!"
"The game is still early, let's continue watching the game." Xiao Hua replied calmly. Now he has been much more experienced than before after more than a year of training in football, and his mood is not very good. The previous performance of jumping up and cheering or cursing about the gains and losses of a ball is now impossible to see. Maybe he will only see it again when he wins the championship.
After the kick-off, both sides fought back and forth, but the thunder and rain were loud and the rain was small, and there were very few offensives that made the shots. The two teams were in a stalemate and the scene was a little dull.
With the result of AC Milan's temporary lead, both sides entered the second half.
Seeing that the situation on the court has not improved for a long time, Wenger made a bold substitution in the 55th minute, replacing the poorly performed Costa and Delvicio, and replaced Ronaldo and Vieri. Baggio retreated to the midfield and played the front midfield to form a trident attacking formation between Ronaldo, Vieri and Baggio.
This change soon achieved results. After the two young forwards came on the court, they relied on their abundant physical fitness and strong fighting spirit to quickly lead the team's midfield and frontcourt. AC Milan was leading by one goal, and more than half of the time had passed, gradually becoming a little conservative. Inter Milan on the court gradually suppressed AC Milan.
"At present, it seems that the situation in Inter Milan has changed a lot after the two young players came up. Guidance Zhang, do you see if Inter Milan still has a chance?"
"Have a chance! Ronaldo and Vieri have very strong impact. Now AC Milan players consume a lot of physical energy. I think it will be very difficult to survive the game by relying on defense until the end of the game. Football can't be defended by relying on defense alone." The two answered sang and answered.
Although Ronaldo does not have too many opportunities to play this season, he can always seize the opportunity to show his genius and uniqueness to the world during his limited long game time, and this game is no exception.
In the 70th minute, AC Milan got a corner kick opportunity, and the ball was damaged by Inter Milan defender's big foot. The ball flew near the center circle and was obtained by Ronaldo. He looked up and observed it with the ball. There were only three AC Milan players in front.
He lowered his head and rushed forward without hesitation. Ambrosini rushed towards him first. Ronaldo's soft body and flexible right foot cooperated perfectly to pretend to wading the ball to the right. After attracting Ambrosini's center of gravity to tilt to the left, his right foot gently pulled the ball on the ball, and wiped the ball from Ambrosini's right.
At this moment, Baresci and Costacuta appeared together on Ronaldo's road of progress. Ronaldo was very confident in his heart, I can! I can! I can score a goal! A speedup! He rushed towards two defenders.
"Ronaldo intends to forcibly break through the defense of the two world-class defenders in front of him?" Han Qiaosheng shouted excitedly.
10 meters! 5 meters! 3 meters! 2 meters! Ronaldo is getting faster and faster. If you are on the court and happen to be standing next to him, you will definitely feel a gust of wind blowing by Ronaldo.
Before the two defenders formed a clamping attack, Ronaldo pushed the ball forward, and then accelerated a hundred meters sprint and forced through the gap between the two of them!
"I went to the meeting alone! Ronaldo's past is so beautiful. I haven't seen such a wonderful goal in a long time!" Han Qiao shouted. "Oh sorry, the ball hasn't been scored yet! It should be said that he is such a beautiful pass." Han Qiaosheng immediately corrected the mistake he made just now because he was too excited.
Swaying left and right, his body shaking greatly in conjunction with the dazzling false movements under his feet, Ronaldo shook Rossi, who was attacking, so he was dizzy. Finally, Rossi made a wrong judgment helplessly. Ronaldo shot to the right and rushed in the opposite direction. He could only lie on the turf and turn around and watch the ball rolling slowly into the gate.
Ronaldo easily pushed the empty goal 1:1 to tie the score for Inter Milan, and now both sides are back on the same starting line.
"This Ronaldo is definitely a genius! Is Musco considering selling?" Berlusconi looked at Ronaldo who was celebrating on the court, with a jealous look in his eyes, and turned to look at Xiao Hua and asked.
"At present, we don't plan to sell him. He is the main striker of our team for the next 10 years, so I can only regret that he is not a seller." Xiao Hua simply rejected the other party. He relied on his idea of always playing against the players in our team. Ronaldo, don't think about it.
"30 million!" Berlusconi's face said this sky-high price without changing color at all.
"Sorry, I don't plan to sell it."
"35 million!" Berlusconi thought to himself that he didn't believe that I couldn't use money to crush you. Are you short of money now? I don't think you are tempted.
Xiao Hua didn't answer anymore and shook his head firmly.
Berlusconi laughed: "Okay, it seems you really don't want to sell. Now I won't force you anymore. I'll talk to you in the future. Let's continue watching the game! Now we tied 1:1, according to my idea, it's an acceptable result for one person to score."
Xiao Hua nodded with a smile.
I don't know if Berlusconi knows any magic. In the next game, the two teams either hit the goal post or hit the goalkeeper like they hit the magic. Amid the fans' regrets and the players' annoyance, the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, and both sides scored 1 point each. The first Milan derby of the season was tied, which was acceptable to both sides.
"Masco, you see, I really hit it. It's 1:1." Berlusconi laughed and said, "As he gave Xiao Hua a hug.
"It seems that we will only be the winner next time!" Xiao Hua said with a smile.
"How about it, go back and continue to think about it. As long as you are willing to sell, I can accept any price you offer. I just want Ronaldo. We are all businessmen and there is nothing we can't negotiate." Berlusconi was not giving up yet and was preparing to try it before the end.
Chapter completed!
