Before the Milan derby, Mourinho had considered whether to give up the Coppa Italia if the Milan derby was lost.

Because Inter's Champions League opponents are a strong Chelsea, if they lose the Milan derby, the lead is only five points, and they simply have no energy to juggle the Coppa Italia.

And now the league is 11 points ahead of the second place, as long as you don't die, the title is basically secured, Lucio and Sneijder are both suspended, unable to participate in the next round of the league, just in time to play the Coppa Italia at full strength.

But when it came to arranging the start of the Coppa Italia, Mourinho and Gao Xiaodong had a little disagreement.

Gao Xiaodong wants to start in the Italian Cup, but Mourinho has two considerations, one is to hope that Gao Xiaodong will maintain his fitness, prevent injury, and focus on the Champions League and the league, and the other is to let Sneijder run in with the team as a forward midfielder, and want to put Gao Xiaodong on the bench.

With the relationship between Mourinho and Gao Xiaodong, the two must not argue in person, but after training, Mourinho kept Gao Xiaodong and explained his purpose for putting him on the bench.

"I'm here to protect you, good steel should be used on the blade, the Champions League and the league are your stage. In the end, Mourinho concluded.

Gao Xiaodong smiled bitterly, Mourinho's reasons are very good, for ordinary players, in the middle and late stages of the league, the risk of injury is indeed increasing, but Gao Xiaodong is different, he is full of black technology equipment, almost no need to worry about injury, and physical problems are not afraid, he can buy small tonic pills and big tonic pills, as long as there are enough points, there is no need to be afraid of no physical fitness.

But this is Gao Xiaodong's absolute secret, he can't tell Mourinho, he can only explain to Mourinho that he is in good physical condition, he can fight on three fronts, he is very careful, and he will not be injured.

Mourinho was a little unhappy, and felt that he had explained it very clearly, which was also to protect Gao Xiaodong, but also for the overall interests of the team, but Gao Xiaodong still wanted to start in the quarterfinals of the Italian Cup, it was too selfish and wanted to be in the limelight.

However, Gao Xiaodong's role for Mourinho and the team is too great, and Mourinho still explained kindly: "If the team can't open the situation, or falls behind, I will arrange for you to play, don't worry, I won't give up in the Italian Cup." ”

At this point, Gao Xiaodong couldn't say anything, he had to accept Mourinho's arrangement.

Juventus are 14 points behind Inter Milan in the league and have lost their hopes of winning the title, and they were eliminated from the Champions League group stage by Bayern, so all their hopes this season are on the Coppa Italia, but Juventus are in terrible form this season.

Head coach Ferrara is an inexperienced rookie, the forward midfielder Diego and the zebra prince Piero are incompatible, the hard-working Melo has become a waste, and there is also the "iron guard" Amaury on the front line, Juventus in such a state is simply unable to fight against Inter Milan who is going all out except for Gao Xiaodong and Zanetti.

Sneijder started as a midfielder, and after a red card in the league, Sneijder and Lucio were eager to atone for their sins in the Coppa Italia, and the two were indeed the best performers in the team.

Lucio opened the scoring from a corner and Balotelli doubled the lead for Inter, both of which were crossed by Sneijder.

Juventus did not pose a threat to Inter for almost the entire game, only scoring a face-saving goal in second-half stoppage time through a mistake by goalkeeper Toldo.

Inter Milan advanced to the semifinals, Gao Xiaodong did not play, the forward Sneijder led the victory of Inter Milan, and then in the Serie A league with Parma, Sneijder, Lucio, and Mourinho were banned, and Inter Milan led by Gao Xiaodong was forced to draw again, and after the game, the media with a racist mentality and the media hostile to Inter Milan began to tout Sneijder, thinking that the optimal configuration of Inter Milan is Sneijder as the core of the frontcourt, and Gao Xiaodong went to play the back.

Sneijder's agent, Leerby, also jumped out after the game, saying that Sneijder's most suitable position is the forward midfielder, and other positions are a waste of Sneijder's talent.

Leerby also suggested to Mourinhoti that Gao Xiaodong is an all-round player who can play in any position, Inter Milan's back attack is not strong, and Gao Xiaodong can play in the back.

Mourinho bought Sneijder to prevent Gao Xiaodong's injury and suspension, and he never wanted Sneijder to come to Inter Milan and compete with Gao Xiaodong for the core position.

Immediately after Leerby's speech, Mourinho approached Sneijder to shut up his agent, and then held a press conference to warn Leerby not to dictate his line-up and not to be an agent if he really had the ability to direct the game.

Gao Xiaodong worked hard for half a season to win the core position and the position of vice captain, and Sneijder wanted to grab his core in less than half a month, which made Gao Xiaodong very unhappy, and his way of responding was to score goals.

In the next Serie A league, Gao Xiaodong suddenly broke out, scoring a hat-trick against Cagliari in the 23rd round, scoring 17 goals and tying the top scorer Milito in the scorer list.

Gao Xiaodong's hat trick was like three slaps in the face of reporters, and no one let Gao Xiaodong hit the back after the game.

However, Sneijder did not show any weakness, scoring the only goal in the first leg of the Coppa Italia semi-final against Fiorentina to help Inter Milan win 1-0 at home to the Purple Lilies and secure the initiative to advance.

After the game, the media began to boast about Sneijder again, although it was no longer said that Sneijder should be the core, but put forward the dual-core theory, hoping that Sneijder and Gao Xiaodong would become the dual-core of Inter Milan and jointly promote the progress of the Inter Milan battleship.

On the forum and Twitter, Sneijder's fans and Gao Xiaodong's fans also quarreled, they both thought that their idols were better than each other, and they both wanted their idols to become the core of Inter Milan's frontcourt.

Gao Xiaodong doesn't need to play the Italian Cup, he plays once a week, the time is very relaxed, he not only pays attention to the noise of the media and the quarrels of fans every day, but also uses his vest to tease Sneijder's fans on the forum, with rhythm, making Xiao Le and the monkey very speechless.

The day of the 24th round of the league was Valentine's Day in the West and the first day of the Chinese New Year, and the day before the game, Chen Qiang, Zhang Qi, Yang Fan, Yu Debao and Monkey all came to Milan, Italy for Chinese New Year's Eve.

Yang Fan is still the main force in Lexos, but Lexos is no longer the dark horse of the Gao Xiaodong era, and Lexus has a very bad record this season, and is currently ranked first from the bottom, and it is very likely to be relegated to the Portuguese Liga.

Although Yu Debao was not able to gain a foothold in the giants, after transferring to Rio Ave in the Portuguese Super League, he gradually played the main force, and the momentum was even better than Yang Fan.

This is Gao Xiaodong's first Spring Festival in Italy, Gao Xiaodong wanted to go to a Chinese restaurant for dinner, but Xiao Le and Chen Qiang disagreed, they said that it was not lively and warm, and they must buy their own ingredients and cook by themselves.

So, Xiao Le, Chen Qiang, and Monkey went to buy ingredients, and Gao Xiaodong, Zhang Qi, Yang Fan, and Yu Debao played mahjong together at home.

Just when Gao Xiaodong and others were having fun, Li Min, the Chinese ambassador to Italy, came with condolences and reporters.

Gao Xiaodong, Zhang Qi and others hurriedly greeted them, and Gao Xiaodong held Li Min's hand, "Ambassador Li, welcome, welcome." ”

Li Min is in his forties, wearing glasses, looking like an intellectual, he held Gao Xiaodong's hand and shook it again and again, "Xiaodong, you are our Chinese hero, I have wanted to come to see you for a long time, but I can't spare time." ”

The reporters saw Li Min and Gao Xiaodong shaking hands, and hurriedly took pictures, with Gao Xiaodong, a superstar balloon, as long as it is sent out, it will definitely increase sales.

Gao Xiaodong said: "The ambassador is too polite, hurry up and sit inside." ”

Li Min shook hands with everyone one by one, and then came to the living room side by side with Gao Xiaodong.

"Playing mahjong, this is our quintessence. Li Min smiled when he saw the mahjong machine.

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "You can't forget your roots, can Ambassador Li play?

Li Min waved his hand again and again and said, "No, the level is too poor, you can play." ”

If the ambassador doesn't play, others can't play by themselves, so let the ambassador watch from the side, and everyone will chat with the ambassador in the living room.

Ambassador Li highly praised Gao Xiaodong's outstanding performance in Serie A, believing that he had won glory for the Chinese and improved the status of the Chinese in the eyes of the Italian people, and he hoped that Gao Xiaodong would continue to work hard and become the first Chinese to win the Serie A championship.

After sitting for about ten minutes, Ambassador Li asked his subordinates to deliver condolences and leave Gao Xiaodong's house.
