Chapter 548: News Silence
With Materazzi's late header, Inter Milan ended their winning streak in a draw at home to Atalanta.
If it's a two-goal lead, it's no different from a loss, but if it's a two-goal deficit and a tie is made, it's no different from a win, so even if you don't win, the players aren't so disappointed, because it's not easy to draw.
It's nothing to end a winning streak, sometimes a good result is more of a pressure, just thinking about winning all the time, the pressure will get bigger and bigger, and eventually it will accumulate and one day it will completely explode, and the consequence may be a total collapse.
If you experience ups and downs early, then the splendor will become more and more precious.
Besides, a draw may not have any serious impact on the team, after all, no team can win indefinitely.
The previous winning streak allowed everyone to see a strong Inter and the technical attributes of Inter, and this hard-won draw made everyone see the resilience of Inter, the strength of Inter not to admit defeat, and the spiritual attributes of Inter.
The technical attributes are strong, the mental attributes are also strong, such Inter, there is no reason not to achieve good results.
At most, the media said a few words sourly, which was harmless, and it didn't even have much impact on Inter.
You know, even if there is a draw, Inter Milan is still 6 points ahead of Roma, which is still a seemingly insurmountable chasm, enough for Rome to chase for 10,000 years.
However, there is another topic that has been hyped up by the media about this game, and that is that Jamie Vardy's scoring streak has come to an end.
Not counting the first two rounds of the league, Jamie Vardy has already scored in the next nine league games, and he is not far from Serie A's personal record of consecutive goals, and everyone is optimistic that he will break this record.
However, in Inter's so-called Waterloo battle, Vardy did not score, so his strong momentum was stalled, and the possibility of breaking the record can only be repeated.
It's a big deal for a goalscorer to score.
Even that tactical type of center forward must also be measured by scoring indicators, even Drogba, who is not good at goals, doesn't he have a season of goals to break the 20 mark.
As for Vardy, he certainly doesn't have the terrifying dominance of Drogba's penalty area, so the only thing he can contribute to the team is to score goals.
Once Vardy can't score, he loses his value.
As a result, a handful of media began to hype up this topic, because they began to promote the "Vardy uselessness theory" without scoring in a game, and even began to assert that Vardy would be in a slump from now on, degenerate into a mortal, and Inter's 100 million yuan transfer fee was wasted, etc.
Many fans followed the uproar with the mentality of watching the excitement, and for a while, public opinion was very loud, and even many people put the pot of Inter's failure to win on Vardy's head.
Vardy never imagined that he felt like he had suddenly changed from a peerless superstar to a fallen meteor.
The Italian press is less disciplined than the English press.
The black men of the English media, at least with some evidence, even if they are just chasing after the wind, can stand up to a certain extent, and they are usually rarely blacks, and more use gossip to attract attention.
But the Italian media simply closes the door and can be as black as you want, and the white can also be said to be black for you.
In all fairness, even if Vardy didn't score in this game, it can't be said that the performance was poor, and even Inter Milan equalised from two goals down, and Vardy was definitely a big contributor to it.
The first goal was scored by Jamie Vardy's clever leak after attracting the defence that allowed Balotelli to get a very good chance to open the scoring;
The second goal was a direct assist from Vardy's grenade throw-in;
Without Jamie Vardy's substitution, Inter Milan would have only one chance of humiliating themselves at home against a heavily defended Atalanta.
You know, Jamie Vardy was named the best of the match in this game, so even if he is not praised, there are no black spots.
Vardy now deeply feels the anger of Mourinho, he was in Inter Milan, but he had a close relationship with the Italian media, and he was hacked out of the air at every turn, so it's no wonder if he doesn't leave!
Of course, there are other problems in this, the influence of the Moratti family in Italy is still a little worse, it can't compare to the sworn enemy of the same city, Mr. Pei, and it can't compare to the Agnelli family.
Some time ago, I was hacked by the media on a large scale for no reason, and now again, do you all think that Serie A has too much influence, and you have to let the Serie A ranking drop again?
In his previous life, sometimes Vardy was really sad for Serie A, and was successively surpassed by the Premier League, the Bundesliga, and even the Portuguese Super League......
Is this simply a lack of competition due to the economic downturn?
Even if the Chinese-funded Milan duo prospered Serie A to a certain extent, it was not because Serie A was competitive, but simply because of the Serie A plot of Chinese fans.
Vardy said that the economy is the main factor in Serie A's declining influence, but it is definitely the Italian media.
During the Premier League, Vardy was the absolute hegemon of the front page headlines, partly because of his bizarre behavior, partly because of his super performances, and on the other hand, because of the gossip.
But in Italy, the reason why it made headlines was similar in the first two aspects, and the third was simply because it was hacked by the Italian media for no reason.
This feels like a water army that was rampant on the Internet in the previous life......
Alas, this is the advantage of dominating public opinion!
Vardy doesn't even know how to refute these unscrupulous media.
Seeing that Vardy was caught in a storm of public opinion, Inter people have stood up and supported Vardy in a clear position.
Roberto Mancini's public statement that Jamie Vardy is the heart of the team and that he will help the team in every way, not just goals, and that his being named Man of the Match is a lot of a problem, and the media's doubts about Vardy are unfounded.
Zanetti and other team-mates also said that Jamie Vardy is the best player in the world and that he is the real solution for Inter.
Even Moratti was interviewed, jokingly saying that Vardy's transfer was the most successful transfer he has ever operated, and it was also the most cost-effective transfer, and now it seems that the transfer fee of 100 million euros is too cheap.
And then, Cruise, lying down with a gun, wanted to cry without tears - I repeat, not 100 million, it's 100 million and 5 million, I'm the five million......
Of course, it is not only Inter who help Vardy speak out, some far-sighted people have also criticized the bad public opinion led by the media, if they attack Serie A stars arbitrarily just to attract attention, then Serie A will inevitably lose stars in the future, and then its influence will become weaker and weaker, and even finally removed from the five major leagues.
It's a pity that the voices of these people are weak, and they can't make much waves in the huge upsurge of public opinion.
The turmoil in the Italian media is even worse than in England.
Vardy watched coldly, like a passer-by who didn't care about himself, and smiled contemptuously in his heart.
Time will tell, and when the competitiveness of Serie A as a whole becomes negligible, and the Italian media are forced to live at home, you will know how short-sighted you are now.
However, Vardy really didn't want to see their villains triumphant, and in line with the principle of revenge as much as possible not overnight, he really felt that he should teach them a lesson.
So, what should be done?
It seems that there is only silence with the news.
What is news silence?
An individual remains silent in front of the media in all directions, does not accept any interviews, and does not make any statements.
That's how Vardy wants to fight the media.
Of course, a person's strength is weak, so how to win more people to stand with him is the key to success.
Needless to say, as long as Vardy doesn't rebel, they will definitely support Vardy.
And there are several teams in Serie A that are considered Inter factions, and Atalanta and Torino will support Inter to a certain extent, as long as Moratti comes forward, it can be done.
In addition, there is a strong team, that is, Roma, and the relationship with Inter Milan is also very good, and the two teams have formed an alliance against the Holy League, and the incense is still there, so it is not impossible for them to support Inter.
The rest of the teams will depend on chance, so in this part, Vardy intends to turn to the system.
Otherwise, you won't do it, and if you want to do it, you will do big things.
After careful calculation, Vardy has done a lot of big things, and he once even did the matter of boycotting against the national team coach, so Vardy is familiar with the road.
Vardy visited Moratti at his home that evening and enlisted the support of the Inter president.
Moratti didn't have any good feelings for the Serie A media, and now he is his favorite star looking for him, and there is no reason to ignore it at all.
Then back home, Vardy entered the wishing system again.
"Make a wish: let as many clubs in Italian football as possible support Inter Milan into a state of news silence."
"System Prompt: Wishing difficulty is three stars, equivalent to 35 system gold coins"
"System Prompt: Wish Fulfilled!"
The reason why Vardy didn't make a wish to put all the clubs into a state of news silence was because he knew that it was almost impossible to accomplish, and that the absolute force was a five-star wish, and even bankrupt money could not be achieved, so he left a lot of leeway and chose the word "as much as possible".
With all that done, Vardy slept peacefully, and all that was left to do was sit back and wait for things to ferment.
The next day, Vardy flew back to London for the final group game of the European Championship qualifiers, and by the time he returned to Italy, the days had changed.
