Mancini was relieved to have made the decision, as if he felt relieved.

Of course, this is just an illusion.

In fact, as long as he is still in the position of manager of Inter Milan, it is impossible to get rid of it.

No one suffers more than the Inter manager.

Inter fans are always nostalgic for the big international era, which makes their current predicament even more prominent.

In fact, Mancini's choice of the league title also has an Inter Milan background, which shows that he is well aware of the history of his team and the demands of the fans.

The Champions League is of course the highest level of club competition on the planet, and it is also the highest honour in club competition.

But for Inter fans, it's not indispensable.

In fact, at this time, Inter Milan fans want a league title even more.

The last time they won the league was back in the 80s, 19881989 season. At that time, Inter Milan was still in the era of the German troika, and the troika of Klinsmann, Mateus and Bremer was pitted against Rijkaard, Ruud Gullit and . Van Basten's Dutch trio.

At that time, the stars of Italian football were shining, and it was a real small World Cup.

Such a strong Inter Milan can't monopolize the title, even AC Milan, which has the Dutch trio.

Because in addition to them, there is also Napoli, which has Maradona, Carreca and Alemão, the three great men of South America.

Juventus have France's Michelle Platini, Poland's Boniek and Denmark's rookie Michel. Laudrup, the "Three Swords of Europe".

The era when Inter Milan won the title was also the most glorious period of Serie A.

They never won the league again.

Moratti's Inter Milan later bought a lot of stars, even superstars, from the troika to Djokaeff, Robert. Carlos, Kanu, Paul. Ince, Robbie. Keane, Ronaldo, Recoba, Vieri, Robert. Baggio, Zamorano, Crespo...... None of these glittering names have helped Inter Milan win a league title.

Many stars come to great fame, but in the end they either leave in disgrace or are completely buried. So Inter Milan also has the title of "star black hole".

Juventus fans, rivals of AC Milan and Italian national derby, have made fun of Inter Milan for this time.

As a traditional wealthy family. But I haven't won a league championship for 18 years, and it's too embarrassing to say it.

Inter Milan's quest for the league title has become an obsession, a nightmare, a knot.

Inter fans don't care about the Champions League, but the league title must be won.

And as long as Mancini can bring a league title to the team, he can definitely reverse his image of incompetence in the eyes of Inter fans. Solidify his position in the club. Since then, no one has questioned him again......

So Mancini chose the league title and gave up the Champions League.

※※※

It was decided to wait until the end of the match with Valencia to make a trade-off, and before this game, the purpose was relatively simple, naturally not allowing Lazio to open up the gap.

So even if he was going to Mestalla and Valencia in the middle of next week, Mancini sent his full squad to Livorno away in the league at the weekend.

It turned out that he was right to do so.

Because Inter Milan, who played all the main forces, almost capsized in the gutter and fell on Livorno.

In the end, it was Ibrahimovic's goal in the 66th minute that he came back to win the post-80s Shaolin abbot of Livo, but no one knows if he will be able to save the team in the Champions League next week.

Mancini didn't want to think about it anymore, in vain, without suspense......

A day later, Lazio, who had only been on the bench with just one team, beat Sampdoria 1-0 at home. The team's captain, Rocchi, scored the only goal of the game for Lazio.

Then, both teams ushered in their Champions League ties.

The Inter Milan match is played a day before the Lazio match.

The game was watched live in front of the TV.

He didn't care whether Inter Milan could get past Valencia, he already knew the outcome of the game, and there was no suspense. Inter Milan will definitely be knocked out of the competition.

At Inter's level, at that level. Even if they have their own butterflies that travel through time and space, they can't change their fate of being eliminated.

He watched this game live for one purpose. He wanted to see if a big thing would come as scheduled.

This major event is not Inter Milan's elimination, Inter Milan's performance in the Champions League in the past two years has been very weak, and it is not uncommon to be eliminated, and it is far from being a major event that can be recorded in history.

His so-called big event was the mass assault in Mestalla.

It turns out that some things really can't be changed.

Including Inter Milan's elimination from the tournament and that group fight. and the brightest star in the group fight...... Navarro.

Because they were scored two away goals by the opponent, the situation was very unfavorable for Inter Milan. During the game, Valencia fans continued to insult the Inter Milan players, and the atmosphere in the stadium was also very hot.

The dull draw lasted until the end, and the Inter players moved more and more after seeing no hope of promotion.

Valencia's centre-back Ayala was knocked to the ground by Inter Milan's Kruse and Materazzi as he battled for a header, with Cruise elbowing Ayala. It was this elbow that sparked the riots that followed.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, Valencia captain Marchena kicked the ball out of bounds and verbally challenged Inter Milan's Burdisso. Such a move angered the Argentines at once. The two first quarreled fiercely, then moved their hands to push each other, and the fight between the two players still did not stop the two from throwing punches at each other. After Burdisso kicked Marcena, he was pulled away by Valencia defender Miguel by the neck; On the other side, Marchena was already being held by his own team-mate.

Originally, if the matter had ended here, it would have been just a general conflict. It didn't get to the point where it came later.

Just when everyone thought that the clash was over, substitute Navarro, who rushed up from the Valencia bench, hit Burdisso with a right hook that was held back by the Valencia player and had no ability to fight back. The hapless Burdisso immediately fell to the ground, and after the examination, the Argentine fractured the bridge of his nose.

This angered all the Inter players, with Cruz and Cordoba rushing towards Navarro, and the Spaniard turned and ran when he saw that things were not going well.

At this moment, Navarro, who usually looks like he is very average, is almost like Bolt is possessed.

Surrounded by Cruise, Córdoba and McConn, he managed to escape from the centre of the pitch. All the way back to the locker room. And the price he paid was only a trip over Córdoba and a kick to McConn......

Then the riots kicked off completely.

Enraged by Navarro's punch and hit-and-run cowardice, the Inter Milan players burned the flames from the pitch to the home team's dressing room.

Toldo burst into the home dressing room to take on the entire Valencia team.

It wasn't until the Spanish police finally intervened that the matter was over.

Chang Sheng waited for 90 minutes and watched an extremely dull 0:0, just to witness this good show with his own eyes.

When Navarro was seen rushing into the passage, Inter Milan's substitute goalkeeper Toldo chased in for the first time, the TV broadcast was not filmed.

Chang Sheng, on the other hand, turned off the TV and went to sleep contentedly.

Tomorrow. It was his team's turn......

The next day, the major European media were discussing the fierce battle that took place in Mestalla.

The media showed the public how vicious they are.

"A 90-minute football match is not as good as a clash after 10 minutes, and it is a shame whether Valencia or Inter Milan advances!"

"Thank you for watching the European Championship live, Navarro's right hook is really beautiful!"

"I don't think Navarro has a future in football and he's going to sprint. Now I can start practicing, and maybe I can get a 100m medal for Spain at the 2008 Beijing Olympics......"

There are also media photos of Navarro holding up the boxing championship belt to satirize Navarro.

Because one of them is Valencia, which Chang Sheng once led, Navarro was even drawn from the reserve team to the first team, so many reporters came to interview Chang Sheng. I'd like to hear what he thinks about it.

At this time, Chang Sheng naturally can't tell the truth: I promoted him because I thought he had such a fast speed and felt that he had a future......

All he could say was, "Tell me the truth." I didn't expect him to be able to run so fast......"

The reporter had a black line: "I'm not asking this, I'm asking you how you feel about the team you coached being involved in such a fight......"

Chang Sheng rolled his eyes: "You should ask Flores, now that he is the head coach of Valencia, I am not responsible for wiping his ass." ”

※※※

Because everyone is watching this brawl that shocked European football, the match between Lazio and Celtic. On the contrary, it received much less attention.

For Lazio, that's a good thing.

Because it allows them to play with less pressure.

At least it can play a little normally.

So from this point of view, Chang Sheng's hope that the brawl will be staged as scheduled is not entirely with the mentality of "watching the excitement".

The fight between Inter Milan and Valencia is still very positive for Lazio, who are often victorious.

If in the end Lazio eliminated Celtic. If he advances to the quarter-finals, he should really thank Flores and Roberto Mancini......
