Chapter 490: Inter Milan is from the universe!
In fact, Gao Han was not in the mood to think too much about the joy of the Milan derby victory, and even rarely read the media reports, because he had to lead the team to Lens in France non-stop. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
The group stage of the UEFA Cup is a single-round schedule, with a total of four rounds, so the competition is fierce.
Inter Milan are currently top of the group with nine points from three wins, but Steaua Bucharest are second with seven points, Hertha Berlin with five, Lens with four and Halmsdaz with zero.
Therefore, in this game against Lens, Inter Milan must win to ensure that the team will finish first in the group and fight for a better position in the next knockout draw.
Considering that there was just a big battle in the derby, Gao Han rotated in this game, Cruise, Recoba, Solari and other players appeared one after another, and Lens was also making the last effort to qualify for the group, so the two teams played very hard, and finally Inter Milan defeated Lens 2-1.
In the other game, Steaua Bucharest drew 0-0 away from Hertha Berlin and joined hands with Inter Milan to qualify.
After returning to Italy from France, Inter Milan soon ushered in the sixteenth round of Serie A.
Juventus challenged Lazio away, the two sides played very hard, the referee frequently pulled out cards, and finally the two teams ended in a 1-1 draw, Inter Milan loan Lazio youngster Pandev performed eye-catchingly, and was voted the best player.
The unexpected away points drop have cast an impenetrable cloud over the Bianconeri.
On the other hand, AC Milan, Ancelotti's resilience is vividly reflected.
Although they had just lost 0-6 at the Meazza Stadium, in the blink of an eye, the Rossoneri beat Messina 4-0 at their San Siro Stadium.
But what really comforted Carlo Ancelotti was that in four goals, Shevchenko scored twice, Gilardino also scored a goal and Andrea Pirlo scored a direct free-kick, and it looked like the strikers were in form again.
Inter Milan's game was played a day later, and although it was an away game, the difference in quality between the two teams was huge.
Regina's attack power is not strong, so Gao Han discharged a more aggressive starting tactic in this game.
The front line is still the trident, with a combination of Cristiano Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic and Adriano, midfielder Figo partnering Veron, Cambiasso dragging behind, Evra, Cannavaro, Materazzi and Zanetti at the back, and Cesar in goal.
Among them, Evra and Zanetti are both in the position of Alpine, almost the same position as Cambiasso.
As it turned out, Gao Han's starting tactics worked very well.
Just over a minute into the game, Patrice Evra received Figo's ball on the left side, quickly set the edge and went down, and was fouled by the opponent, winning a free kick in front of Inter Milan.
VerΓ³n took the penalty himself, and Cannavaro opened the scoring for Inter with a header in front of goal.
But just a few minutes later, Adriano suddenly shot from 25 meters away from the goal, which caught Reggina off guard, although it was blocked by the goalkeeper and the defender cleared quickly, but Zanetti took the ball on the right side, and the big foot was transferred to the middle to Figo, and the Portuguese directly kicked straight through, Cristiano Ronaldo suddenly inserted a shot and made another goal for Inter Milan.
With two goals in a row, Inter Milan's morale was like a rainbow and they continued to increase their fierce attack on Regina.
Towards the end of the first half, Cambiasso suddenly stepped up to steal the ball, Figo broke through with the ball in the middle, attracted defenders and suddenly distributed to the right side, Adriano received the ball and shook two defenders, and shot with his left foot to score another goal for Inter Milan.
In the end, Inter ended the first half with a 3-0 advantage, and everyone could almost conclude that Inter would win another big win.
In the second half, after the rematch, Reggina still resisted stubbornly for a while, but in the 57th minute, Figo took the ball and got rid of the defenders, and crossed low to the edge of the penalty area, Ibrahimovic leaned on the defender with his body, turned and kicked the goal, and further expanded the score for Inter Milan, 4-0.
After that, Gao Han made a series of substitutions, especially with Stankovic, who had just returned from injury, to replace Figo, so that the midfielder who had suffered an injury this season could readjust to the rhythm of the game.
In the end, Inter Milan beat Reggina 4-0 away.
Figo also won the best player of the match with his outstanding performance in this game, but was also praised by all the media and fans after the game, especially after Gao Han adjusted his position to the middle, which further unleashed Figo's ability.
Even Spain's Marca newspaper reported on this game with regret that Real Madrid's release of Figo was a huge loss.
"At Inter Milan this season, Figo's performance in the middle of the midfield has been breathtaking, and Gao Han's magic hand shows that he is better than other managers, and he has given Figo a second spring in Serie A. β
But more people are still watching the situation in Serie A.
At the end of this round, Inter's lead was extended to seven points.
Three days later, in the seventeenth round of Serie A, Inter Milan once again ushered in an easy game, and the opponent was Empoli.
Since it is the last game before Christmas, this round of the Serie A market is played at the same time.
In the end, Inter Milan beat Empoli 4-0 thanks to goals from Adriano, Ibrahimovic, Figo and Cristiano Ronaldo.
After winning many rounds in a row, Inter Milan's offensive was so strong that it was simply shocking.
In particular, the trident of Cristiano Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic and Adriano is even more impressive.
In contrast, AC Milan's 3-0 away win over Livorno and Juventus' 2-0 home win over Siena were a bit bleak.
The next day, the Milan Sport newspaper ran a provocative headline on the front page: Inter Milan from the universe!
The report mentioned that Real Madrid is known as a galactic battleship, but in comparison, the Nerazzurri's powerful attack power and devastating on-field advantage look more like a powerful existence from the depths of the universe.
"Serie A has only been played seventeen rounds, but Inter Milan's lead is exaggerated. β
"In the past, we used to say that Serie A was a two-man affair, with two teams competing for the league title every season, and even going back further, at the beginning of the century, there were three or four teams competing for the league title every season. β
"But this season, with Gao Han's strong arrival, Serie A is constantly subverting our traditional impression. β
"Before the start of the season, we thought that this season would be a matchup between the top three in the north, but as the season began, we found that it was a two-man match, but AC Milan became Inter Milan, and it was still a matchup between Torino City and Milan City. β
"But when the game went deeper, we found that it was not Inter Milan that was challenging Juventus, but the Bianconeri were chasing Inter Milan, and the gap was repeatedly widened. β
With 17 wins and 51 points in the first 17 rounds, Inter Milan has the best half-way record in the history of Serie A, and his points are equivalent to Fiorentina in third place and a 13th-placed Empoli, and even more than the bottom four teams in the current table combined. β
"It's impossible to imagine Inter Milan's exaggerated results, but we're not surprised at all, because Gao Han is just continuing his magical record in La Liga and the Premier League, and he has always been able to surprise and surprise people time and time again. β
At the beginning of the season, the managers of 19 Serie A teams were aiming to beat Alpin, but now, after 17 rounds of league play, no one can cause problems for Inter Milan, and the only one who almost broke the Nerazzurri is Lazio's Mancini, but that game is also quite controversial. β
After the early Adriano turmoil, Inter quickly assembled a formidable trident attacking line-up and gradually honed into shape, playing a shocking attacking storm in recent rounds. β
In contrast, Juventus, despite overwhelming dominance against other Serie A sides, struggled to compete with Inter Milan and are currently seven points behind, forcing them to step up their pursuit in the second half. β
Capello summed up at the end of the 17 rounds by saying that Juventus are in good shape and fitness at the moment, and he is confident that they will be able to catch up with Inter Milan soon in 2006. β
He also said that the reason why Juventus are now behind Inter Milan is not because of the superior strength of the Nerazzurri, but because Juventus themselves have made mistakes in two or three games, and they hope to avoid the same mistakes in the second half, while Capello said that the lag of teams such as Fiorentina and AC Milan is limited by the difference in strength. β
In the first 17 rounds of the league, in addition to Inter Milan, the most eye-catching is Prandelli's Fiorentina, and the third place in Serie A is the best proof of the purple lily.
The overall pressing style of play, combined with the vigorous promotion of young players in the squad, has earned Prandelli the recognition of everyone.
In the seventeen rounds of the league, Fiorentina has only lost three games, the record can be called brilliant, and it is also the biggest dark horse in Serie A this season, as long as the current momentum continues, it will definitely have a chance to qualify for Europe, and even the Champions League.
At the end of the first half, the Italian media began to summarize and come to an unanimous conclusion.
That is, the task of sniping Inter Milan is still very difficult.
Before Christmas, when Gao Han routinely attended an event of the team, when asked by reporters about the news, he also changed his previous low profile and became confident that he didn't care.
"To be honest, when I see somebody on the news who says they want to outdo me, and when they see so-and-so team say they want to beat us, it's funny, and I think every time I don't know how to do math and they might not be able to do math. β
"Seven points ahead of second place in 17 rounds is the best proof of that for us. β
"I believe that all Inter fans should see and believe that we are the best team in Italy and I and all the players are confident that we will be able to continue this momentum in the second half. β
"And for the people and the team who want to challenge me and want to surpass us, I only have one word for it. β
Gao Han smiled confidently, "Just let the horse come!"
