vs 319 Atmosphere like a home field
Chelsea's earth-shattering defeat caused a major reshuffle in Europe, while here in Italy, Parma played peacefully. After playing for Chelsea, Parma returned to the league and did not sweep their opponents with a big victory, but only a narrow victory. In this game, Parma played quite absent-mindedly, and did not seem to recover from the fatigue after the game, and the game was not very eye-catching.
However, it is not without joy that people are happy. In the game, Rossi finally appeared on the field again after a long period of injury. Even though he had only been on the pitch for less than five minutes and had only touched the ball two or three times, the fans were still quite satisfied: what could be more pleasing than the return of one of the most outstanding local players?
After the game, Li Bin also expressed his excitement in an interview, "Rossi's physical recovery is better than I expected, he has worked hard, and after the injury, he has been doing rehabilitation training, which makes his state recover quickly." I expected him to come back in December, but now he's back in November, which is good. He's going to need to get his groove back on the pitch now, he's got time and I'm sure he'll not be out at the Euros. ”
Li Bin's promise to the media also raised another question: the Italian Cup is about to start, so will Rossi play the Italian Cup first to recover his form, and then switch to playing the Champions League for the team?
'I don't think it's a good idea to play in the Coppa Italia right now. He needs to recover and should rest for a while. It's okay for him to be able to play after Christmas, and before that he just needs to adapt to the game. As for our cup – we have Jojo and he's the main force there. ”
Last year, Parma's cup competition basically relied on Edinson Cavani to reach the last four. However, last year, Parma's backline in the cup was also extremely strong. And this year, Parma did not have a good back, and used the younger Jovedic to play in the cup, which is obviously a half-given situation.
All their energy now is really focused on the league.
After the match against Livorno, Parma's next opponent is Palermo.
As a mid-table team, Palermo didn't give Parma much either. Arshavin scored a long-range shot, then Yaya Toure headed home from a free-kick and Milito headed home a comfortable 3-0 victory.
And at this time, an unexpected thing also made people start a new round of discussion - Inter Milan lost unexpectedly in the game against Milan.
Now, after 12 rounds of Serie A, Parma has eight wins, one loss and three draws, accumulating 27 points, and it is okay to win, although there is still an Inter Milan in front of 12 rounds with nine wins, two draws and one loss and a score of 29 points, but Parma is still a stable second place in the league. Because of the defeat of Inter Milan, the difference between the two teams was narrowed to only 2 points, and it also made Serie A start a discussion: Parma is so virtuous, but it is still not thrown away by Inter Milan!
In the next game, there is also a big question: Parma's next opponent is Juventus, which has led to a discussion about whether they will give it their all in this game.
Parma are one of the few teams willing to do business with Juventus this summer, and their relationship with Juventus has eased somewhat as a result. Although Juventus knows very well that Li Bin deliberately overthrew Moggie, they obviously have no idea of being angry for Moggie, and the relationship between the two teams is quite good, which also makes people start to think, how will Parma treat Juventus in this game?
It stands to reason that they have already said that they have given up the league, but they are 2 points away from Juventus, and this 2 point gap, they can catch up with it with a little effort, what if they catch up?
Parma, in particular, don't need to make much effort in the Champions League now: they are already top of the group. So, will they be able to play hard in the Champions League again? This is also a very suspicious thing. The knockout rounds of the Champions League are in February, so what if Parma would love to play in the league before then?
This also made Inter Milan already worried before the game started, although they were not worried that Parma would catch up with them in this game, but they were really worried that Parma would change their original intentions and stumble in the league.
Fortunately, Parma didn't. They played quite well, drawing four games and winning a 0-0 draw.
The point difference was opened up again, which also made Inter Milan breathe a sigh of relief. After the game, Li Bin once again emphasized his thoughts in an interview, "Our focus this season is on European competitions, not the league. The league didn't win, and that's not a big deal. Also, Juventus are one of the strongest teams I've ever seen, and I was impressed by their way to winning the title in the 05-06 season, so I think it's normal not to beat them. Especially when we were still preparing to go to Moscow, it was normal not to win the game. ”
His words were simple, but they made the entire Serie A complain: The championship trophy of the 05-06 season is still in your house, what kind of good person said that the championship is Juventus? What's more, what's even more complaining is that you have already qualified first in the group, okay? What else is there to say about preparing to go to Moscow?
These words, of course, are causing people to complain, but this is also what Li Bin deliberately said.
First, of course, it is impossible for him to change his mind: if he suddenly says that he wants to win the double now, not to mention the previous efforts, and more importantly, Parma will definitely be criticized by Inter Milan in all aspects of the Football Association and the media.
Second, he also deliberately provoked this sentence: he said that the champion should be Juventus, which is nothing more than to make Juventus trouble. In my memory, Juventus has been fighting for this title for a long time in the future. Now, as soon as they say that this championship should be theirs, they will be even more happy to mess with the Football Association. This is not good for Li Bin now, but in the future, his words will make Juventus very happy - they have to do business in the future, and they can't be provoked. Moreover, he has a good relationship with Juventus, so that he can let himself and Buffon play against Spain.
As for the championship of the 05-06 season...... Anyway, Li Bin was not proud of it, and anyway, the 7 million of the year was in hand, who could make him spit it out.
When it comes to continuing to work hard in the Champions League group stage, Li Bin also made a decision after consideration.
There are three reasons for this. One is because he doesn't want Chelsea to be eliminated: he is the top of the group, and he doesn't have to think about the problems he encountered with Chelsea early. However, the other strong teams have to find some trouble for them. The other group leaders will not all be weak, so it is not a bad thing to make them tired and make it more difficult - they are fighting with each other, and Parma is naturally the fisherman. Now that Parma are stronger, they don't care about the threat from Chelsea, and there is no need to let them out early, and let them enter the knockout rounds to make trouble for others, but it is more beneficial for Parma. And it's not a bad thing to give other teams some difficulty and make it harder for them to play. Chelsea's qualification is always more than the problems that Shakhtar and CSKA have given them.
Secondly, he also knows that Chelsea cannot be eliminated - strength is one aspect, and the other is that their last opponent in the last round is CSKA. CSKA's backstage company, which has Abu's shares, Li Bin may be a villain, but this relationship does make him think too much, he doesn't need to be a villain, it's better to help Chelsea.
Thirdly, and most importantly, it is not a bad thing for them to experience the environment of Moscow in advance.
"Remember, guys, Moscow is the venue for our Champions League final this year and we're definitely going to be here. It's the easternmost part of Europe, it's the hardest away game to beat, but someday in the future, we're going to play a game here, and that game, against both sides, it's an away game. I think you know the importance of this place, only if you know the importance of this place, you will understand how important it is to win games here, no matter what, we can't lose here to our opponents, this land is destined to become our famous place, playing here, you have to win, you can't lose a game! ”
Before the game, Li Bin rarely encouraged the players, and after giving the death order, the Parma players played very murderously. Soon after the start of the game, they had the upper hand in all their respects, and although they were playing away, Parma easily managed to win the game.
Zabaleta crossed to Motta, who took two steps forward and made a long-range cross that went straight to Grosso on the far left. Grosso ran forward and, at a 45-degree angle, stabbed the ball straight to Milito, who was deep in return.
Milito rarely returned so deep, but this one, he played hard. After being watched by his opponent, he turned around from outside the box and turned his back to Arshavin in the middle of the pitch to cut in himself.
Arshavin held the ball and did not pass at the top of the arc for a while. Milito and Edinson Cavani are both pushing inside the box and he's waiting for a better moment. Cavani rushed towards the middle, and the opponent's backline was in disarray, and Arshavin immediately kicked the ball out of the corner and tucked it directly into Milito's feet! This was quite unexpected, and it made it easy for Milito to do it against offside.
Milito, who was at a tight angle, received the ball and kicked it towards the far post, but the ball hit the post with a crisp bang and bounced back. However, the attack didn't end there, as Cavani immediately fired a close-range tackle and kicked the ball into the back of the net.
A shouting voice immediately erupted around, which also made Arshavin raise his head: Where is this neutral venue, this is obviously my home field! I am the captain of the Russian national team, the core of the national team, where to go in Russia, isn't it like going home?
Who says it's an away game? This is clearly my home turf!
