Chapter Seventy-Six: The Gambling

What to bet on? Adriano proposed to bet on this game, what? Bet on the game of Inter Milan?! That's right, Adriano proposed to bet on the win or loss of this game, and he persuaded the two bitter melons: "Anyway, it's boring for us to stay on it, and it looks more interesting to bet!"

Zhang Yuan is really speechless, he feels that Adriano is a little self-defeating, judging from the time of getting along with the team, Adriano is a more introverted person, as for whether Zhang Yuan is not clear before, he participates in training every day, and he communicates less with his teammates in training, and he plays his own after training, and he may communicate with his fellow countrymen McCone and Cesar a little, and he doesn't communicate much with other South Americans, the biggest reason may be that everyone is not a language family, Brazilians speak Portuguese, Argentina, Spanish is spoken in Colombia.

Listening to Adriano's words, Zhang Yuan hurriedly refused, what kind of joke, gambling with his own team, although it was a joke, but it was not so fun, in case it was known by the head coach and his teammates, it would be really miserable, it was good to say if he won, maybe he will be angry with you if he loses, this approach is obviously not conducive to unity.

"Okay, okay, you don't gamble on it!

"And what about you, Mario!" he then asked Balotelli, who didn't understand the twists and turns hidden in Zhang Yuan's stomach, and asked directly, "What are you betting on?"

"Hey, hey, you two don't gamble, it's not good!" Zhang Yuan persuaded.

The two of them looked at each other angrily, and they almost didn't say to get out of the way, Zhang Yuan shut up, anyway, it's their business, I persuaded them anyway, and I don't care if something happens.

This goal is not easy to bet, both of them are optimistic about Inter Milan winning, how to bet, bet on goals, bet on scores, at the critical moment Balotelli took the initiative to bet on winning or losing, Balotelli chose to draw by himself, the reason is that he feels that it is too difficult to bet on goal difference, it is better to bet on this simple, obviously he bought the cold. It's also strange that he chose to draw Adriano, Adriano chose Inter Milan to lose, obviously both of them think that Inter Milan wants to win, but they both choose to fight cold.

As for the bet, they did not agree on it, Adriano simply proposed that whoever loses should buy a gift for the other party, and as for what it is, he can decide what it is. Balotelli thinks it's very reasonable, his income is definitely not as good as Adriano, and it is far worse than Zhang Yuan, that is, the highest salary in the youth team, and he feels distressed if the stakes are too big, so it's the best, and the gift to Adriano when he loses will be okay.

The two of them whispered there that it was decided, and the game had already begun, and it was only at the beginning that Inter Milan was very vigorous, and it seemed that they were going to crush Udinese at the beginning, and Udinese has always been an attacking team, from the 90s to the present, they have been the cradle of cultivating stars and coaches, and they are very good at using young players, the average age of their first team this season is the youngest in the entire Serie A, the newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, they are not afraid of Inter Milan at all, Udinese coach Marino is not scared at all, Inter Milan attack, okay, no problem, let's attack too。

However, Inter Milan was obviously superior, in the 9th minute, Ibrahimovic cleverly passed through the right side of the penalty area, and Stankovic controlled the ball with his right foot and fired into the net from 6 meters from the goal, scoring Inter Milan's first goal of the season, and rewriting the score to 1:0.

The fans at the scene cheered and shouted Stankovic's name along with the commentator, and Zhang Yuan stood up from his seat and applauded his teammates on the field.

Adriano and Balotelli didn't stand up, they sat in their seats and applauded their teammates on the field, but there was clearly a trace of regret on their faces, they didn't expect Inter Milan to score so early, and they were not stupid, Inter Milan's strength must be much stronger than Udinese. Marino will not lose the theme of Udinese's attack, he will not shrink the defense in this game, for Udinese to lose one goal and lose two goals is the same, so choosing the offensive tactics that he is better at is a better strategy to meet the enemy, it is good to be able to draw, it is best to win, the season is long, every point is crucial, because one point is also important, Udinese will definitely continue to choose to attack, so that there will be more opportunities for Inter Milan, I believe that Inter Milan will definitely score goals next.

Marino really did not change Udinese's tactics and still play the main offensive card in Meazza, Udinese's formation today is their usual 433 formation, midfielders Inle, D'Agostino, Mesto, the front trident is Gian, Quagliarella, Flores, last season's main Di Natale did not play, and even the squad was not included It is said that there is a conflict with the management and was beaten into the cold palace. Udinese's midfield configuration is full of creativity and a little weak defensively, but under D'Agostino's management, they are not at all inferior to Inter.

In such a situation, although Inter still has the advantage overall, they did not create as many chances in the first half as Udinese, and the players felt tired and did not run actively. Ibrahimovic and Cruz on the front line didn't do anything decent.

In the first half, Inter entered the dressing room with a score of 1-0, and Mancini stressed that everyone must increase their movement when explaining the tactics of the second half.

But into the second half of the Inter players are still the same, the running is still not active, soon they suffered the consequences, in the 57th minute, D'Agostino midfielder passed the ball over the top, Quagliarella was successful against offside, goalkeeper Cesar attacked the handball outside the penalty area, was directly red carded by the referee, this time Inter Milan has one less person, had to respond to the game with ten people, Toldo replaced Cruise, the field can not be without a goalkeeper, Mancini had to replace Cruise.

As a result, Udinese began to have a huge advantage, constantly threatening Inter's goal, but failed to score, but always suppressed Inter's attack, Inter can only defend. Mancini replaced Figo with Suazo on 65 minutes, intending to use Suazo's speed to counter-attack the Udinese defence.

Inter's situation has not changed since Suazo came on the pitch, and Suazo did not live up to Mancini's expectations, and his form today was not very good, and the dribbling breakthrough was often cut off by the Udinese players.

Udinese failed to break through Inter's door until the 90th minute, and it looked like Inter were going to win the game at home, but Udinese's last corner opportunity in the second minute of stoppage time, Pepe's corner from the right side of the second half was driven into the penalty area, Mesto headed 12 meters from the goal, and Córdoba's header cleared but unexpectedly slipped into his own goal.

Udinese equalized, Mancini's face was blue and unhappy, and the players on the field looked depressed, I really didn't expect that an own goal actually went in at the last moment, helping Udinese equalize in the second half. Córdoba, who scored an own goal, was really depressed, and Zanetti patted him on the shoulder in fear and reassured him that it didn't matter, no one wanted this kind of thing to happen.

Zhang Yuan was naturally very disappointed, Adriano was also disappointed, Zhang Yuan was disappointed that the team was finally equalized, and the new season failed to get off to a good start, disappointing the attention of the fans.

Adriano was disappointed that the bet was lost, the draw was chosen by Balotelli, there are still dozens of seconds left, the possibility of Udinese scoring another goal is zero, of course he is hoping for a miracle to happen, in his heart Inter Milan lost this time all season, there are still 37 rounds of chances to get points.

Balotelli was more excited, and he jumped into the stands the moment Udinese equalised, but fortunately he knew how to restrain himself and didn't laugh out loud. Immediately sat down again, Zhang Yuan could see that this guy was still holding back a smile, and he must be happy in his heart, needless to say that he was similar to Adriano in his heart, what is it to lose a game or draw a game. Both of them were completely immersed in the game.

In the end, the score of this game was 1:1, the fans on the scene were very disappointed, some fans have already booed, what are you doing, the first game of the new season was drawn, the players are not active, Mancini's inaction makes many fans dissatisfied.

After the game, Zhang Yuan found Handanovic, and sure enough, they would have a holiday the next day, Zhang Yuan invited this friend to have dinner together, and Digan naturally came as an appointment. He is similar to Zhang Yuan, they are both marginal figures of their respective teams, and it is really difficult to play in the game, and he is loaned to a club in the summer with Yi B, but he is unwilling to go, so he can only stay at AC Milan, Zhang Yuan thought that Ancelotti had taken a fancy to him.

So on the table, the two of them poured bitter water on Handanovic, Zhang Yuan felt that he performed well in the friendly match in the summer, and thought that he was worthy of the substitute seat, but there was still no Zhang Yuan's play at the beginning of the season, and he could see that Mancini still trusted the veterans and would not trust them young people. Digan said that he would consider a transfer in the winter, Handanovic agreed, he has a personal experience, Udinese is not a giant, more liberal in the use of young people, but also exiled him for a few seasons, not to mention Inter Milan and AC Milan, these giants, are even more reluctant to give young people a chance, unless they think you are really outstanding. But at least Mancini and Carlo Ancelotti don't think their Zhang Yuan and Digando are outstanding.
