Chapter 239: Champion Node (Part II)

Despite the team's 2-0 win over Palermo to get their 28th league win, Leon struggled to improve.

In stoppage time, Modric fell to the ground and injured in a scramble, and Inter Milan had no substitutions at that time, and after Modric left the pitch injured, Inter Milan played with one less man on the field.

After the game, the injuries of Sergio Aguero and David Silva were already out.

Aguero is a thigh muscle strain, this muscle strain condition is the most headache for the player, because it is not a major disease, however, it is very tormenting, if you don't pay attention, once it triggers a muscle tear, it may cause a big problem, fortunately, Aguero's muscle is not torn, just a strain, however, this may also need to rest for about three weeks, if the recovery is not good, a month or two is also possible.

David Silva's injury is better than expected, his cartilage is painful and requires a more delicate minimally invasive surgery, but if the surgery is successful, Silva will likely be back on the pitch as soon as possible, of course, this 'as soon as possible', and it will take at least a month.

Modric, who left the field injured at the end of the game, was more serious than expected, and the subsequent test results showed that from the MRI scan results, Modric's meniscus injury will have to be treated as soon as possible according to normal procedures, and the recovery process of meniscus injury will take at least 4 to 6 weeks, and in severe cases, it may even take more than two months.

***********

Sergio Aguero, David Silva and Luka Modric lost three of their players in the game against Palermo, which made Leon furious after the game.

At the post-match press conference, Leon fired angrily, first pointing the finger at referee Pescari, believing that it was the connivance of the Napoli referee that would make the game get out of control, causing Inter Milan players to leave the field with injuries.

Subsequently, Li Ang criticized Palermo's dirty style of play, and in the eyes of reporters at the scene, the Inter Milan coach almost pointed directly at the nose of the Palermo coach at the scene and said that he was the executioner.

It's no wonder Leon is so angry, the season has entered the second half of the sprint, with only two months to go until the end of the season, Aguero will be out for at least three weeks, David Silva may need a month, which is a huge blow for Inter.

At the time of the post-match press conference, the results of Modric's injury had not yet come out, otherwise, in the words of "Milan Sports Newspaper", it is estimated that Li Ang would have been desperate with the Palermo people on the spot.

Sergio Aguero is injured, however, with Cassano available to fill in and Balotelli to be substituted, the impact on Inter is slightly smaller.

In the case of David Silva's injury, Arshavin can play in his position, and in the league, Deco, who cannot play in the Champions League, can concentrate on playing in the league, and Arshavin can concentrate on playing in the Champions League.

***********

Of the three injured players, the biggest impact on Inter Milan was Luka Modric.

There has been a comprehensive analysis and study of Leon's Inter Milan team, and they believe that there are two players in this team who are the most important, and it can even be said that there is no replacement.

One is Juan Carlos, who is Inter Milan's midfield barrier, with Carlos on the field, Inter Milan's defense line immediately improves a notch, and this is also the most reassuring part of Leon, Carlos has amazing physical fitness, and basically rarely misses games due to injury.

Another indispensable player is Modric, Modric is Inter Milan's midfield metronome, is the midfield playmaker, when playing at Sporting Gijon, Leon let Modric learn from former AC Milan star Demitrio Albertini, which makes Modric more mature and comprehensive than the original historical trajectory, which is the midfield offensive hub of Inter Milan. This is where Inter's offensive and defensive keys lie.

On top of that, there was no qualified substitute to replace Luka Modric on the bench, Muntari was lacking in quality and Toni Kroos was still very young.

Therefore, for Leon and Inter Milan, Modric's injury is the biggest blow.

***********

The media is hyping up injuries to three of Inter's most important players.

However, just a day later, the focus of the conversation was on the focus battle between AC Milan and Roma, to be exact, the focus was still on Inter Milan, and the focus was on Inter Milan's early defense of the title!

This match between the league-second team Roma and the league-fourth team AC Milan was played a day later after the Inter Milan match.

Once Roma are blocked by AC Milan, Inter Milan could win the title in the next league game at the earliest.

It was quite dramatic.

In the first half, AC Milan led Roma 3-0 away.

According to the Italian media, AC Milan coach Ancelotti 'borrowed' the successful experience of the game in which Leon led Inter Milan to beat Roma, Ancelotti asked AC Milan players in the midfield to force and contain Pizarro, which not only made the Roma team's attack contained, but more importantly, AC Milan got three chances to break the ball from Pizarro, played Roma three counterattacks, and scored three goals!

"Ancelotti needs to pay Leon a tuition fee. Commentator Ferrari joked that this is almost a small copy of Leon's Inter Milan playing Roma.

He Wei, the commentator of the Huaxia CCTV Sports Channel who broadcast the game live, was even more excited, and even a champion coach like Ancelotti wanted to 'copy' Li Ang's tactics, which made him very proud and honored.

***********

However, no one expected that in the second half of the game, Spalletti replaced the sleepwalking Pizarro and replaced the young Aquilani, and the Roma team's attack suddenly accelerated, which caught the 'aging' AC Milan off guard, and the Roma team actually scored three goals in the second half to make the score three to three.

"3-3! At the end of the game, AC Milan were beaten by Roma with a three-goal lead on the road! ”

"Both Ancelotti and Spalletti have to pay their tuition fees to Leon. Rosie didn't forget to tease.

He was right, in the second half of the game, the Roma team suddenly accelerated, completely using speed to drag down AC Milan, obviously this has the shadow of the Milan derby in the first leg, that game, Leon's Inter Milan completely used speed to directly destroy AC Milan, Spalletti's second half has the shadow of that game.

Of course, the most important ones are:

At the end of the 28 league rounds, Inter Milan has 84 points, Roma in second place has 56 points, Juventus in third place has 51 points, and AC Milan in fourth place in the league has 48 points. Ferrari's voice was transmitted to the ears of the fans and spectators through the radio waves, "This means that in the next round of the league, the twenty-ninth round of the league, Inter Milan only needs to win the game, then, even Roma will also win, but it is no longer possible to stop Inter Milan from winning the championship in advance!"

"In the twenty-ninth round of the league, Inter Milan only needs to win away from Genoa, they will win the Serie A title nine rounds ahead of schedule, and they will defend their title!"

The 2007/2008 Serie A season ushered in the championship node in mid-March!
