November 21, 7 p.m.

The 47,000-seat Frankie Stadium was packed, and although it was just over half the capacity of the 85,000-seat Meazza Stadium, the atmosphere inside the stadium was not much worse than that of Inter Milan's home stadium.

It could even be said that the Frankie Stadium, which has just undergone a modernisation to bring the stands and playing field closer together, is better than the Meazza Stadium in terms of creating the atmosphere of the home stadium!

At this point, the players of both sides have finished their warm-ups, and after a brief opening ceremony, the captains of both sides go to the referee to pick the kick-off and their respective halves, and the game is almost about to begin.

"It's a nostalgic atmosphere...... Barty, who was waiting for kick-off in the middle of the pitch, as he looked at the Fiorentina fans in the stands cheering for the home team, "and sure enough, the atmosphere was better here, much warmer than at the Meazza stadium." ”

"Hey, don't put on a nostalgic face there! No matter how happy we were when we played for Fiorentina, now we are all Inter players. Djokaeff kindly poked Barty in the elbow and said, "And, anyway, we're all professionals, so we have to be worthy of the wages we're earning." ”

"Haha, I know I know, it was just a little bit of a touch just now, and I still have a good idea of what to do now." Barty replied with a smile, "And, I'm not the only one who thinks so, haven't you noticed that the signs in the stands have been put away now?" ”

"Oh, that's true." Djokaeff glanced at the stands and found that as Batistuta said, the warm banners and slogans in the stands had been put away without him noticing, and were replaced by a rather oppressive silence before the big game, "I didn't expect the Fiorentina fans to be so sensible that they actually knew that they couldn't cheer for our opponents in the game." ”

"A favor is a favor, a game is a game, no matter how good the relationship is, it can't change the fact that we are already opponents now." Barty sighed as he spoke, his tone full of not wanting to go against Fiorentina, "This should be considered one of the cruelties of professional football." ”

While Barty and Djokaeff were whispering on the pitch, the VIP box at Frankie Stadium was a rather enthusiastic scene.

"Haha, Massimo (Moratti), it's been a long time!" Seeing Moratti walk into the private room, Zhuang Mingge greeted him warmly and said, "What have you been busy with lately?" The transfer period is over, and you don't see you stop for a while. ”

"Alas, Antonio, don't mention it." Moratti sat on the high-end sofa and said with a tired face, "Isn't it because of the foreign aid quota limit last year?" It was unfortunate that several of the players I liked had exceeded the league's limit of five foreign players, so I had to cancel the transfer deal in the end! ”

"Uh...... Massimo, I'm just a little curious, which players are going to deserve so much attention from you? Of course, if it's a matter of Inter Milan's confidentiality, forget it. Seeing that the always bold boss Mo would be so angry about this, Zhuang Mingge couldn't help but be curious, and said in his heart, Could it be that the other party has found a future god-level figure like Xiao Luo or Kaka? And then the top players of the future, such as McCone and Essien?

However, Moratti's answer almost made Zhuang Mingge scorched: "It's okay, it's okay to sue you, anyway, with Fiorentina's current player configuration and Antonio's vision, I think you definitely don't look down on these people." ”

Speaking of this, Moratti paused, and then brought in the transfers that he wanted to bring in but were forced to cancel due to foreign aid restrictions: "I have my eye on the Nigerian national team's main left-back Taribo West, Croatian right-back Dario Simic ......"

I'll you, Moratti, why are you fancy foreign aid of this level? Although he knew that Boss Mo had always seen people badly, Zhuang Mingge was still quite speechless about it.

It should be added here that due to Zhuang Mingge's suggestion, the restriction on non-European players in Serie A has changed from only one foreign player per season to a current situation where only five foreign players can sign up for the first team. It is this change that has caused many players who should have historically landed on the Serie A stage to lose the opportunity to join Serie A teams, and joining West last season is just one example.

"Well, Massimo, don't you think these players overlap with the guys that Inter already have?" Zhuang Mingge, who felt that he should let Boss Mo calm down, said that although he and Fiorentina were rivals, he didn't want to see the chairman of the fans who had a good relationship with him end up with a bleak ending after spending a lot of money.

"Why do you say that?" Although he attaches great importance to Zhuang Mingge's professional opinion, Moratti is still a little unconvinced, after all, he has also discovered an outstanding rookie like Zanetti in the past two years, so he naturally has to fight for it.

"There's not much to say at right-back, Zanetti and Bergomi can't give anyone else a chance to intervene, so there's no need to buy Simic at all; At left-back, Colonnese is a player who is not inferior to West, the Nigerian's only advantage is that he is more famous, and with a Sylvester who can play anywhere in the back line, how much do you think it is necessary to make such a resource-wasting trade? ”

Just as Zhuang Mingge was criticizing Moratti's recruitment ideas, the players on both sides were already in their places on the pitch, waiting for the game to start.

"Audience friends, the highlight of the 10th round of the 1998-99 Serie A season is about to begin! The match was played against Fiorentina and Inter Milan, who currently occupy the top two spots in the standings. In the live broadcast room, the Sky TV commentator is passionately commentating on the game, "This game has quite a lot of highlights, first of all, this summer's transfer from Fiorentina to Inter Milan's Batistuta for a world-record transfer fee this time to return to the Frankie Stadium." Facing his old club for which he has played for six seasons, what kind of performance the Argentine god of war will have in this game has been scoring consistently since the start of the game is one of the hot topics that everyone is paying attention to. Secondly, there are quite a few former Fiorentina players in Inter's first team, in addition to the aforementioned Barty, Djokaeff, Roberto Baggio, Marco Lanner and Billindelly, who are now on the pitch, have all played for Fiorentina. Therefore, this match is also the best occasion for these players to prove themselves to their old club! ”

In addition, Fiorentina are currently at the top of the table with 22 points from seven wins, one draw and one loss, while Inter Milan are in second place with 20 points. So there is no doubt that this game is a battle that will determine who will be the league leader next! ”

And just like that, amid the chatter of the commentator, the referee Corina blew the whistle for the start of the game!
