173 The Devil's Hand of Gouging
In the 74th minute, Trapani won a corner kick opportunity, Barzagli jumped from the crowd to help Trapani extend the score to 2:0, this goal almost dispelled the last bit of Inter Milan's fighting spirit.
Moratti blushed in the stands, and he looked at Hugo not far away, who was greeted by Hugo's grinning face, as if he were slapping his face with mockery.
Moratti has a breath of anger in his heart, it is not for nothing that Inter Milan's performance is so bad, Hugo doesn't know but Moratti knows.
A fierce clash erupted in the visiting dressing room at half-time, with Adriano almost battling after Argentinian Cambiaso accused Inter of not being involved in the team's defence, causing problems for Inter's defence.
It is not the first time that Adriano has been at odds with the players in the team, and Inter Milan's Argentine and Brazilian gangs are not on good terms, and Ronaldo's presence in the past has also caused many players to be dissatisfied with their privileges.
In such a context, how could Inter Milan possibly bring the game up to the table?!
Didier Deschamps made a change, the big picture is basically set to let some of the main players rest, Messi and Klose got the opportunity to rest, they got a standing ovation from the home fans, although Messi did not score, but the role of the prospect of Trapani on the offensive end does not need to be repeated.
Since then, Trapani's three starting attacking players have been replaced, but Inter Milan has no intention of improving, Miku's position has retreated deeply, and his teammates who are patiently organizing themselves to control the ball are not in a hurry to attack.
But the players of Inter Milan did not mean to press upward, and slowly, more than 90 minutes of game time ended, Trapani defeated Inter Milan 2:0 at home, and advanced to the semifinals with an aggregate score of 2:0.
The Barbera Stadium was instantly a sea of joy, with fans bouncing and jumping in the stands and Hugo and the club's hierarchy hugging each other in celebration.
"Ha, you've made history again! Terrific! Uncle Giovanni praised from the bottom of his heart.
"Uncle, I accept this compliment. But by the way, can you be practical?! Hugo and Giovanni hugged each other and joked.
"Starting next season, let's increase the total cost of sideline advertising!" Giovanni patted Hugo on the shoulder.
"Gigi, you guys are really amazing! I don't watch the game much, I didn't let Victor play before, but I still support our hometown team from the bottom of my heart, and Trapani used to be bad! Now look at the semi-finals of the Champions League! I used to think that I would never expect to see such a situation in my life, but now it has come true! You guys are amazing! "It's the first time that Uncle Giovanni has touted Hugo like this.
"Haha, it's not a big deal, in fact, as long as you have money, everything will be much easier, this is the power of money! But I'm happy! Hugo laughed.
Celebrating with his own side, Hugo walked to the aisle in the middle of the stands, where Moratti was waiting for him, and the demeanor of Mr. Moratti was still there after the loss.
"Congratulations, you've advanced to the semi-finals! Three steps away from the championship! Moratti held out his hand.
"Thank you, Mr. Moratti! I'm sure you still have a chance this season! Don't take this game to heart. Hugo comforted that there would be no supper, Moratti would take a private jet back to Milan overnight, and the Inter Milan team would also go back overnight.
But this night is not destined to be a quiet night, and a reporter in the on-site interview after the game broke the news that Inter Milan broke out into fierce infighting at halftime, and Mancini flatly denied it.
Deschamps was thoughtful, and if this is the case, it is understandable that Inter Milan's poor performance has only been scored, but Trapani can be said to have won relatively easily.
Inter Milan are below Trapani in all statistics, and the passing and cutting errors rate is relatively high, and they did not threaten the ball two or three times throughout the game.
It was the first thing that was revealed by reporters at the scene, and the second thing was that when the Inter Milan club officials and players arrived at the airport, they were surrounded by some Inter Milan fans to ask for an explanation.
Fans questioned the management of the club and questioned the attitude of the players on the pitch.
In the end, under the escort of the airport police security, all the Inter Milan staff were able to board the plane and return smoothly.
The next day, the Italian media began to arrange Inter Milan, and various commentators criticized Inter Milan's on-field performance, and Inter Milan legend Bergomi shouted: "They are all mercenaries, they don't deserve to wear Inter Milan jerseys!" ”
Inter Milan fans also ran to the headquarters to ask for an explanation, and Moratti was a little lucky at this time, because he was not the chairman of Inter Milan anymore, the chairman was Fachetti, and at least he was not the one who was scolded.
Trapani met the weakest Rangers in the round of 16, but in the quarter-finals it was Inter Milan, at least on paper, who were strong and a regular in the Champions League, so this promotion was even more convincing, and despite the infighting scandal at Inter Milan, the Italian media still praised Trapani to the sky.
At the end of the quarter-finals, Juventus finished playing and were held to a draw by Arsenal at their home stadium, while Italian side Milan passed and beat Lyon.
La Liga's Barcelona also qualified, so that Trapani will face Arsenal and Barcelona will face Milan in the semi-finals of the Champions League.
Both Arsenal and Trapani have reason to be complacent, as they look at each other and think they are good rivals.
Trapani naturally doesn't want to run into Barcelona and Milan, if it's the league, Trapani doesn't have a reason to bow to Milan, but in the Champions League, Milan is not only experienced, but at the same time, their form is much better than in the league, and it feels like two people.
As for Barcelona, they are one of the favourites this year, with Italy's Juventus and Milan at the top of the group stage odds, while Barcelona are also not too far behind, with the semi-finals being held slightly below Milan in second place before the first leg.
Because of the revelations in the media, everyone knew that Adriano seemed to be unpopular at Inter Milan, and Hugo had an idea and felt that it was a good idea to dig Adriano.
Hugo admires Adriano very much, this guy has a very strong ability, maybe there are problems inherent to most Brazilian players, he was born poor, he became famous by playing football, he started to spend a lot of money when he got rich, he didn't know who he was, and he was not popular in the team.
"He's a prick! Such a player is difficult to discipline! 'Seely doesn't want to bring in players like that, it's a Vieri-style challenge for Trapani.
"I'm afraid he's disobedient?! It's the dragon who has to go to Trapani and Vieri has to throw in the towel here! Hugo said heroically.
Hugo has no regrets at this time, because he is a deserving winner from now on, Vieri and Milan signed on a free transfer, and he will also struggle to get a chance against Milan's talented forward.
Big Inzaghi is his fox friend, but it is impossible to give him the position, and Ancelotti has no longer looked down on Vieri, who has declined, he will not give him too many opportunities, and the introduction of Vieri is just wishful thinking.
If there are no surprises, Vieri still has to go, he still has to go in the summer, there is a rule, a player cannot transfer twice in a season, but Vieri is a free agent, he is not in such a bondage, and if he is not sent in the summer, he will also leave.
Vieri was pretty much at that, and his affair did not affect Trapani, Hugo instead did something he wanted to do, offended the players, and he also established his authority.
Won't Ribery have to give in after that?! If he doesn't give in, Hugo wants someone to beat that Bruno. Hyde Shayd, give Ribery a warning, but fortunately, Ribery still kicked Hyde Shaid after all!
