Chapter 468: Tricked
'The Champions League game away to Bayern Munich in midweek took a lot of energy away from us, but our opponents had a week to prepare and that made it tough from the start. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
In the post-match press conference, Juventus coach Fabio Capello commented on the match in an interview with the media.
Although in front of Gao Han, he bluntly admitted that the team lost, but in front of the media reporters, he still intends to continue to be stubborn, after all, the league has just begun, and it is impossible for him to admit defeat now.
Even, he had to take the initiative to find some reasons for the team to lose.
'Tonight our players did a great job and basically played our style and I think we should focus on our players here and I'm very happy to see them perform tonight. β
'The 3-0 scoreline doesn't really reflect the whole game, the game was not completely dominated by Inter, we gave the opponent no chance at one point, but we were unlucky, our players didn't make fatal mistakes, but Figo took his chances incredibly. β
'After conceding a goal, the game was completely different for us, we had to think about how to score goals, which forced us to be more proactive, but unfortunately our opponents played on the counter-attack, so ......'
When Capello said this, he had to stress again, "Even when they were 2-0 up, Inter didn't cause us too much trouble, it was difficult for them to break into our big box, but the sudden goal gave them a strong sense of confidence and it eventually led to this result. β
'Losing this game, I don't think it's the end of the world, we used to be too confident, this game will make us more calm and pragmatic, and we see a strong Inter Milan team full of desire to win, which is a terrible opponent but also pushes us to become more combative. β
Capello's answer was a bit evasive, trying not to touch on the sensitive areas of the game.
For example, he never mentioned that Juventus had only two shots on goal throughout the game, and not even one of them was aimed at the Inter fans, which meant that Cesar was not threatened in the slightest throughout the game.
Inter Milan, on the other hand, had a whopping 18 shots on goal throughout the game, although most of them were long-range shots, but all three goals were genuine, and everyone saw the strong attacking power shown by the Nerazzurri.
If you just look at this game, Inter Milan almost crushed Juventus.
But in an interview with the media, Gao Han also said nothing about these sensitive data.
He's already won, whether it's out of grace, or considering the image of the team, and the rest of the game, he shouldn't talk about it too much, lest some players in the team become blindly confident or even arrogant.
In fact, Capello's reasons cannot be said to be wrong, and the midweek game against Bayern Munich has a really big impact on Juventus.
"I agree with Mr. Capello's judgment that the result of this game is not representative of the difference in quality between the two teams, and that we were able to win this game more because every one of our players came together and gave it their all, with our midfielders and forwards putting pressure on the opposition all the time. β
"What pleased me the most was that we were very limited with the ball with a few of Juventus' key players, and we had the best performance on all three lines, which allowed us to win this game. β
'Of course, the first goal was crucial and once they took the lead, Juventus at home had to press hard, which gave us more space behind them and we used it well and scored the second goal to seal the result. β
This answer made Gao Han win Capello a grateful smile when he turned his head.
The team has just lost and if Gao Han falls to the ground at this time, Capello will be in a difficult situation.
"Mr. Gao Han, there were a lot of Inter Milan players who performed quite well in this game, can you comment on that?" a local Italian reporter stood up and asked.
'I rarely praise players by name because I've always felt that everyone in the team is responsible for the team's winnings, but today I have to say that I was shocked by Figo's performance, he is an incredible player. β
'Everybody knows that Juventus are very pressing overall, especially in midfield, so we just have to keep passing and cutting together, and Figo is always very clever in the underbelly of the opponent and he shows me clearly the wisdom of a great player. β
Gao Han's comment surprised everyone present, but they all agreed very much.
Figo in this game is indeed quite eye-catching, although he did not score, but almost every time he runs, every time he takes the ball, he is full of purpose, he makes the opponent feel a headache, and he is creating a threat.
'Of course, we have other players like Veron, who has a lot of movement, aggressive pressing, precise passing, and his presence always makes the game easier, Cannavaro is a phenomenal centre-back, a lot of people used to say he is old, but this season he has proven himself again, as I said before the season, he is one of the best centre-backs in the world. β
If before the beginning of the season, Gao Han commented on Cannavaro so much, which aroused the opposition of many fans, then now, through a few games this season, Cannavaro has proven himself again.
Whether paired with Nemanja Vidic or with Materazzi, Cannavaro is quite solid and reassuring.
'Zanetti is the captain of the team, his fighting competition is admirable, along with Patrice Evra, Cesar and Cambiaso, we have been very good in the midfield and back, Cristiano Ronaldo has improved every game and I have always believed that he will be the best player in the world. β
'Ibrahimovic surprised me, he was better at scoring goals on his own last season, but I told him before the season that a Zlatan Ibrahimovic who can only score goals on his own is still not the strongest, he should fit into the team, not only score goals for himself, but also be able to help his team-mates score goals, and I'm very happy to see how he has changed this season. β
As he said this, Gao Han suddenly fell silent.
Everyone immediately looked at each other.
The whole starting lineup has been talked about all over again, why didn't Adriano be mentioned?
"Mr. Gao Han, can you talk about Adriano, the best player of the game?"
"yes, I heard that you were going to sell him, but why did you start him this game?"
"Scored a hat-trick on his first start of the new season, Mr. Gao Han, will Adriano continue to appear in Inter's starting line-up?"
β¦β¦
When the media reporters asked questions, Gao Han smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Yes, I was about to talk about Adriano." β
In an instant, the entire press conference hall fell silent.
Capello couldn't help but glance at Gao Han, and secretly said in his heart, this guy is really good at selling off.
But there is no way, this group of damn media reporters will eat this set.
"I would like to say that all the rumours about Adriano's transfer are unfounded, and we have signed Adriano to a new contract extension and he will be with the team until 2010. β
As soon as Gao Han's voice fell, the scene was in an uproar.
Renewed?
When did it happen?
Why is there no news from outside?
Especially Capello, who was sitting next to Gao Han, his face was even more embarrassed.
He really felt what it meant to be playing, not only on the court, but off the court, he also lost.
Gao Han played smoke bombs from the beginning and toyed with everyone from the beginning!
Capello looked at the young marshal in front of him, who was not yet thirty years old and looked young, and felt very uncomfortable.
He himself used to be a young marshal, and he achieved a surprising peak as soon as he debuted, which can be compared to Gao Han......
Capello was shocked, and the media reporters below were not much better.
All of them are human spirits, and they have been in professional football for many years, and they still don't know where they are caught in the cold.
It's just that they don't think that Gao Han was a mistake, but they will feel that Gao Han has been laying out from the beginning, and some people even speculate that Recoba was not injured at all.
If Gao Han knew how to read minds and could know what they were thinking, he would definitely not be able to laugh or cry.
"Adriano is a player with a lot of potential, in fact, he did a great game, but I would say that this is not the best Adriano, he could have been better and more lethal. β
"There was a time when he did have some trouble and had a hard time, but that's all in the past and from now on he'll let everyone know him again. β
Many media reporters didn't hear what Gao Han said at all, but they were still immersed in the shock brought by Adriano.
Inter Milan's secrecy was also done too well, and it was hidden from everyone.
Now think about it, in the period before the game, all the media reporters were hyping Adriano, saying that Real Madrid were going to bring in a Brazilian striker, and then saying that Juventus were interested in him, and then saying that he was expelled from the team by Alpine......
All of this, in the eyes of Inter Milan at that time, I am afraid it was a joke, right?
Perhaps, he was going to toy with everyone in applause from the beginning!
Thinking of this, the media reporters at the scene looked at Gao Han again, and the originally harmless smile of humans and animals carried a creepy coldness in their eyes at this moment, and even a little awe.
For a moment, there was silence in the press conference hall.
All the media reporters looked at Gao Han one after another, but Gao Han, who had finished answering the questions, was waiting for them to ask questions, and the atmosphere was very paradoxical.
In the end, it was the Juventus spokesman who stepped in and shifted the conversation to something else.
As a result, the media reporter also changed the topic with knowledge and interestedness, asking Capello about the referee and Juventus' plans after losing the game.
Capello was also prepared for this, and did not mean to attack the referee at all, after all, Bertini's law enforcement in this game was still very fair, but for Juventus' next league plan, Capello said that the team would not give up.
"The league has been a long journey, it's only been eight rounds and it's too early to tell. β
Obviously, he wasn't going to give up yet, and it wasn't time to give up.
