Chapter 475: Take the lead
Inter's dressing room is very austere, with long hard benches and no fixed seats for the players, who can sit wherever they want. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
It seems that the players sit very casually, but in fact, the players of the big gangs of the local gang, the Argentine gang and the Brazilian gang all sit together, while the players from Africa and Europe sit down casually against them.
Gao Xiaodong sat on the edge of the bench, with Portugal's Quaresma on his left and Balotelli of the Native Gang on his right.
Although the big enemy is current, everyone is not talking about the games that will start soon, but the draw for the Champions League group stage held yesterday, Inter Milan signed the average, and Barcelona, Dynamo Kyiv, and Rubin Kazan were in Group F.
Barcelona are the defending champions, which is almost equivalent to losing the possibility of competing for the top spot in the group, and the other two teams are poor, but they have to play in the cold Russia and Ukraine, which has a great impact on Inter Milan. In short, it is much worse than AC Milan, AC Milan and Real Madrid, Marseille, and Zurich are in Group A, this group, although AC Milan has little hope of competing for the first place in the group, but the other two opponents are much easier to play than Inter Milan.
However, Gao Xiaodong is very satisfied with this grouping, after being swept by Barcelona in the Champions League final last season, Gao Xiaodong has been obsessed, hoping to have a chance for revenge, but it is not easy to meet in the Champions League.
While the players were talking, President Moratti came in.
"Hello Chairman. ”
The players stood up together to greet Moratti.
Moratti said with a smile: "Hello everyone, you're welcome, I'm just here to see you, not to put pressure on you, the opponent is very strong, it's a derby, it is possible to win or lose, you just have to play your own level." ”
Mourinho disagreed, saying: "No, we have to win, there is more to the derby than three points. ”
Moratti smiled and said: "I don't want to put pressure on everyone, in fact, I have a lot of confidence in our team, we have two or three world-class players in three lines, I believe that no matter whether we win or lose, the final championship will definitely belong to us." ”
After speaking, Moratti came to Gao Xiaodong again and said with a smile: "Xiaodong, don't be pressured, Coach Jose and I both believe in you, boldly play it, and treat the Milan derby as an ordinary game." ”
Gao Xiaodong has never played such an important derby, the suffocating atmosphere makes him, the pressure brought by the super high value and annual salary, he can't help but feel nervous, but in the face of Moratti's encouragement, he can only make a look of confidence, and said: "We will win!" This kind of game is the time to break the confidence of the opponent who won the championship. ”
The newborn calf is not afraid of tigers! Moratti was very happy and said, "Okay, I'll wait to celebrate you." ”
……
Compared to the dressing room of Inter Milan, the Milan dressing room is much more grand and luxurious, the seats are red and black leather seats, each player has their own fixed seat, core players such as Nesta and Ronaldo sit in the center, and substitutes and fringe players sit close to the goal.
Young manager Leonardo is giving his players a lecture, "Inter Milan is an unpredictable team, from Zanetti to Santon, from Stankovic to Junior Donggao...... They can all play in different positions, which directly determines the difference in the lineup, I don't know how the other side will play, they have a lot of formation options, and Mourinho changes his formation a lot, he even changes his formation within 90 minutes, so it requires you to use your brains and be flexible on the pitch......"
Leonardo did not fully gain the trust of the players and did not establish his authority, and when he spoke, Ronaldo and Pato did not listen intently and talked about something from time to time.
Leonardo can only pretend not to see this, both are Brazilian compatriots, one is the former World Footballer of the Year, and the other is the quasi-son-in-law of President Silvio Berlusconi, what can he say, he can only continue to talk about the game," Inter Milan have had some changes to their squad this season, last season there was a player like Ibra who could allow them to go straight past the midfield, and now Ibrahimovic is gone, they have changed this style of play, focusing on the scheduling and organization of the midfield, we have to pay attention to the Chinese kid, he has a very experienced ability to handle the ball, and he has a long-range shot, you have to watch him die......"
Although Gao Xiaodong has performed well before and after joining Inter Milan, youth is always easy to overlook, and the stars of AC Milan still don't take him very seriously, Gattuso laughed and said: "That's because he didn't meet the world's top midfielder, he had a terrible performance against Barcelona last season, and today I will make him understand the difference between Serie A and the Portuguese Super League." ”
Flamini said: "A child will know how to use brute force, and he will soon understand what chain defense is. ”
Hearing the players' discussions, Leonardo didn't know whether to worry or be happy, it was good to have confidence, and if he was too confident, he was afraid that he would make a mistake.
At this time, Milan President Berlusconi also came, Berlusconi is the Italian Prime Minister, or an excellent businessman, he also knows football very well, unlike Moratti, he not only encouraged the players, but also commented on the opponent Inter Milan's lineup and tactical play, and then left the locker room and went to the box with satisfaction.
At 5:55 p.m., the players of Inter Milan and AC Milan walked out of the dressing room under the leadership of referee Rizzoli.
The fans had been waiting impatiently, and when they saw the players coming out, the fans cheered, and the fans who had bought water toilets and left their seats to chat also hurried back to their seats and sat down, waiting for the game to start.
"The players come out, let's see the starting line-ups for both sides:
AC Milan: 30-Storari/15-Zambrotta, 13-Nesta, 33-Thiago Silva, 18-Jankulovski/8-Gattuso, 21-Pirlo, 16-Flamini/80-Ronaldinho/22-Borriello, 7-Pato
Inter Milan: 12-Cesar/13-McConn, 6-Lucio, 25-Samuel, 26-Zivu/4-Zanetti, 5-Stankovic, 11-Muntari/10-Gao Xiaodong/22-Milito, 9-Eto'o
Both sides used a 4312 formation, Inter Milan's Muntari started a little unexpectedly, he didn't eat for a day, it was very doubtful about his fitness, Zivo appeared at left-back, not Thornton, this is a change, in AC Milan, there are no surprises in the starting lineup, exactly the same as the last game, this should be guessed by Mourinho and made targeted deployment, but the advantage of the player's starting fix is that the players cooperate more tacitly...... The game started with Inter kick-off...... Let's watch the game...... ............Ahh
The game had just begun, after Milito and Eto'o passed the ball in the middle circle, they gave the ball to Gao Xiaodong, Gao Xiaodong saw that Pato was rushing towards him too fast, did not pass the ball, smashed the ball and shook Pato, and quickly stepped forward.
AC Milan thought that Gao Xiaodong was not good at breaking through, and when they saw him, they didn't wrap him up, but the forward Ronaldinho came over to harass him.
Gao Xiaodong is not good at breaking through, but he is extremely fast, seeing that the space in the middle of AC Milan is a bit large, and the defense is still lax, he suddenly accelerated to dribble and hit the 30-meter area of AC Milan.
AC Milan saw that Gao Xiaodong was coming very fast, so he realized the danger, Gattuso and Pirlo hurried over to intercept, but Gao Xiaodong flicked the ball at a wide angle and shot directly at 37 meters.
Less than 20 seconds into the game, Milan goalkeeper Storari has not returned to the front of the goal to stand up, the ball flew over like lightning, Storari was almost stunned, he subconsciously flew to save but did not touch the ball, just when Storari felt desperate, only to hear a bang, the ball hit the crossbar and flew out.
