Chapter 552: Madiburg Arrives in Milan
Madiburg is coming!
Since you can't participate in the golden Chopin, let's play in peace. In the third round of Group F of the 08-09 Champions League group stage, AC Milan hosted Madibourg, the third place in the Bundesliga last season.
Madiburg was still driven by sporting director Thomas Hasler, and the team flew straight from Munich to Milan the day after losing 4-2 to Bayern Munich in the 9th round of the Bundesliga. As is customary for all Champions League opponents to visit Milan, the team opted for Pinettina, Inter's training base, to prepare for the match against AC Milan. Three years ago, when Zhuo Yang led Madiburg to Milan to play the Champions League with Inter Milan 1/8, he trained in Milanello.
As soon as Zhuo Yang arrived in Milan from Madibourg, he ignored the gossip of others and helped arrange the hotel and training. In fact, he doesn't need to help him in these things at all, both the host and the guest have relevant departments to take care of these things, there are rules and routines, but he just wants to help Madibao do something.
In fact, Madiburg is very hesitant now, losing the Champions League twice in a row, and facing AC Milan, the strongest team in the group, and it is already clear from top to bottom that this Champions League journey has basically been finalized. In the next game, I was lucky enough to finish third in the group and continue to compete in the League Cup, so it would be no surprise if I finished at the bottom of the group stage and swam in a lap.
And Madiburg did not start the Bundesliga very well this season, with 3 wins, 4 draws and 2 losses in nine rounds, which was also due to the poor record of the Champions Cup.
Madiburg are not without quality, and the club and the team have regained their momentum from the second half of last season, and they are top of the Bundesliga in terms of performance after the winter break. But Madiburg is still very rusty about the Champions Cup, although the 05-06 season achieved the great glory of the treble, but that is mainly due to Zhuo Yang's shoulders, everyone followed the king and killed together.
Aside from Zhuo Yang, in fact, everyone is very unfamiliar with the Champions Cup, including the scum Uncle Klopp, who is not very familiar with and adapts to the style of the Champions Cup. It is completely different from the dignified and pressing feeling of the Bundesliga, allowing Madiburg's true strength to only play half of it.
In view of this, Madibourg FC has already had the idea of abandoning the Champions Cup and focusing on the league, if they continue to bet heavily on the Champions Cup, it is likely that it will not help but continue to affect the performance of the Bundesliga, and if the final decline is too big, it will be a bit more than worth the loss.
But Director Ha and Uncle Ha are a little reluctant, after all, the Champions Cup is very attractive in terms of influence and commercial benefits, and there are few teams that do not work hard in it, so giving up is really a cub selling Ye Tian, so Uncle Ha and Mr. Ha are still hesitating.
Of course, Zhuo Yang understands Madibourg's current dilemma, if it had been a few years ago, he would have no good way to solve it, so he would have kicked it with his head down. But now, to be honest, his horizons are broader than those of Mr. Ha and Uncle Scum, and he doesn't see the gains and losses of one game and one season. Therefore, Zhuo Yang has something to say.
"Brother, sir, I don't approve of Madiburg giving up the Champions Cup." Zhuo Yang said to Hasler and Uncle Scum: "The Champions Cup is a hurdle for all strong teams, and it is the best place to test a team. For the sake of Madibourg's development, the Champions Cup competition can never be abandoned. ”
"I gave up today, but sooner or later Madiborg will face such a choice, and if you want to be a really strong team, you can't avoid it."
"Madiburg has to develop a Champions League pedigree, and to make reaching the Champions Cup knockout rounds the norm, Madiburg has to adapt to the pressure of fighting on two fronts, and he has to practice that ability."
"Otherwise, Madiburg will always be a dark horse and will not be a real European powerhouse."
Hearing this, Hasler and Uncle Scum suddenly realized that giving up so easily was a standard opportunistic behavior, and there was no style of a strong team at all, which was really a lewdness only for short-sighted people. Under Zhuo Yang's awakening, his brother and Uncle Scum immediately decided: no matter what the prospect is, they must try their best to fight for strength in the remaining Champions Cup games, and from this moment on, they must start to build a strong team.
If Jia Bald and Mr. Bu knew about this episode, they would have to spray Zhuo Yang with a dirty face: how good it would be to take down Madibao with worry and effort, now you have to help yourself up with a high-spirited opponent, you eat too much!
.
The match day was coming soon, and in the players' tunnel, Zhuo Yang stood at the end of the Milan team and looked at Madibourg, who was already a little unfamiliar next to him, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Standing side by side with today's captain Gattuso at the head of the team is Rock Delas, Rock and Mad Dog Rand are the double captains of Madiburg, but Delas is the absolute main force in the team, and Mad Dog is just a rotation substitute, so Delas is the real captain on the field, and Rand is more of a role in the locker room.
Standing with Dida is the good man Handanovic. The man was a target for AC Milan in the summer and he has now become one of the top goalkeepers in football and is highly sought after. Superman Ackerman was also a substitute for a hero, and he played well in the Champions League final that year, and Superman's No. 2 goal was a solid cornerstone for Madiburg.
After careful consideration, Uncle Scum still kept the heroes, and it will take a season or two for several excellent goalkeepers in Team B to take the lead, and the heroes have to wait until they are fully grown up to see the scenery outside.
Sheva started today, and he was chatting happily with Zhirkov, the god of wine next to him. Bacchus attracted the attention of many big clubs because of his outstanding performance at the European Championship in the summer, and even almost went to Chelsea.
Zambrotta is the right-back of the day, with Pompong on the bench. Zango is flanked by his former team-mate at Juventus, Claudio Marchisio. The 23-year-old was once a Juventus hopeful, but after the 2006 'phonegate' he wanted to stay at Juventus, even if it was to play in the second division. However, the reason for the departure of the second brother is similar, Juventus has a loyal veteran in the midfield, and even the second division cannot promise Marchisio a main position. So Raiola took advantage of the situation and sent him to Madibourg.
After more than two years of development, Marchisio is now a very important member of Madibourg's midfield.
Behind Marchisio is Matthew Debichy, who is the same age as Zhuo Yang, and he is chatting with another Matthew, fellow national team teammate Matthew Flamini.
Favali was also given a chance to start today, and at centre-back, next to Madiborg's former famous scraper, Michel Zepke.
Partnering with Lao Fa at central back is 'Shenfeng' Bonella, Boshen is 27 years old this year, but he was a young man of the year a few years ago. In this way, Salvatore Bochetti is considered his junior. The 22-year-old will play at this summer's Olympic Games in Beijing and will be Italy's main centre-back, but he will play at left wing-back in Madiborg and will need to compete with Sascha Ritter and Schaefer.
In fact, in Madiburg's starting lineup today, only captain Delas and goalkeeper Handanovic are the absolute main force, including the veteran Dionysian Zhirkov, others are rotation players, Madibourg's main lineup is not fixed, the personnel reserve is very rich, and everyone is worthy of a fight.
