ps: Finally, it has been updated to more than 5,000 votes.
Today Tudou sent a single chapter, and they began to exert their strength!
We can't afford to be left behind!
Come on, everyone, and keep our first place with me!
The training session was followed by a pre-match press conference.
Jose Mourinho has already attended the press conference.
At the press conference, Mourinho always had a stinky face.
He also made no secret of his disdain for Chinese football.
Perhaps only from this approach can he find his superiority over the constant victory, and in terms of the level of national football, Portuguese football is definitely much better than Chinese football.
Perhaps feeling this "hostility" of Mourinho, many Chinese journalists were also very unkind to Mourinho, and their questions were sharp and harsh.
Jose Mourinho showed no signs of weakness.
So at the pre-match press conference, it was basically Mourinho's battle of words.
"I don't care about the Super Cup, I care more about the Champions League and ......the league," he said.
A reporter stood up and asked: "But last season in the league you lost to the winning Lazio ......"
Mourinho's face became even more unpleasant to look at.
"Your question is too amateurish, I don't need to answer such an amateurish question!"
He placed the blame on amateur Chinese journalists.
In fact, reporters have been analyzing why Mourinho is so resistant to coming to Beijing to participate in the Super Cup, from the very beginning when there was this proposal, he was resolutely opposed, and then after coming to Beijing, he always put on a stinky face, I don't know who to show it.
Maybe it's because it's in China, and it's a home game that Mourinho feels uncomfortable.
He felt that the Italian Football Federation had completely surrendered to Chang Sheng and the huge Chinese market behind him.
As a conspiracy theorist. He even believes that his Inter Milan did not win the title last season because the Italian Serie A wanted to curry favor with the Chinese market......
Of course, no one can guess the reason......
※※※
Compared with the angry Mourinho, the constant victory seems much more relaxed.
First of all, the Chinese media treated him very gently.
Secondly, Chang Sheng has a psychological advantage against Mourinho and can deal with it easily. No need to be hysterical.
"I tell my players to enjoy this special Super Cup. There are not many opportunities to play the Super Cup in China, and they should cherish it. ”
Chang Sheng said.
It seems very relaxed.
※※※
In anticipation, the main race has finally arrived.
At 8 p.m. Beijing time on August 8, the commemoration of the first anniversary of the opening of the Beijing Olympic Games and the Italian Super Cup officially kicked off at the Bird's Nest Stadium.
The Bird's Nest, which can accommodate 91,000 people, poured in nearly 70,000 people in this game, and at a glance, it was almost "full".
More than 69,000 tickets prepared by the organizers were sold out before the start of the tournament.
Not only the fans of Lazio and Inter Milan, but also many neutral fans. They're here to see the ever-winning style.
In addition, there are celebrities from all walks of life.
This competition is indeed the highest level of competition held in Chinese mainland.
In this game, Chang Sheng did not send all the main starters.
He used this game to play a warm-up game.
So the players who started in the first half were not the lineup that Chinese fans are familiar with.
Gotze, Cazorla, Pavon and others were on the bench.
The midfield has changed the most.
Two midfielders who have joined the team this season, Meireles and Hernanes, both started. Chang Sheng is going to use this game to investigate
Inter Milan, on the other hand, sent an all-out main force.
Even Barcelona striker Samuel Eto'o, who had just joined Inter Milan, started.
It can be seen that Mourinho attaches great importance to this game, and he does not "care" about this game at all as he himself said.
※※※
Because the match was played in China, in order to please Chinese fans, both sides wore jerseys printed in Chinese. Even the sponsors on the chest ads of Lazio jerseys have changed their original English names to Chinese, but for Chinese fans, even if they don't change their names, it won't affect everyone's understanding of the company. Because this is their own domestic enterprise, it is too familiar.
In addition to sponsors. The names behind the players are also in Chinese.
※※※
Both sides were still searching for form in the first half, and although both created a couple of wēixié chances, neither was able to score.
After all, after a summer of rest, the feeling of the warm-up game and the official game is still completely different.
Especially Mourinho held back his strength to beat him in front of his ever-winning hometown fathers and make him lose face. So the restrictions on Lazio are very well done.
Lazio also didn't have a good way to break through Inter's defence.
In addition, Lazio's midfield is a combination of two newcomers.
So until the end of the first half, the deadlock on the pitch was not broken, and Lazio and Inter Milan drew 0:0 temporarily.
Although there were no goals, it did not affect the interest of the fans in the slightest.
Every wonderful move of both sides can attract unreserved shouts from the fans for them.
Whether it's boos or praise......
In the eyes of the insider. Also very satisfied. Although there were no goals, both teams played with the tactical thinking of two managers.
It was a very technical and tactical game.
Gao Hongbo also appeared in the box of Zai's Bird's Nest Stadium to watch the game on the spot.
On the one hand, he is here to cheer Lazio, and on the other hand, he is also here to learn.
※※※
After the break, neither side made any adjustments and continued to compete with their starting line-ups.
Hernanes and Meireles performed much better than in the first half, gradually adapting to the atmosphere and building a bond with their team-mates.
When these two midfielders are performing normally, Lazio's midfield is functioning normally.
On the pitch, Lazio began to press Inter little by little.
Just three minutes into the game, Barzaretti crossed from the left. It almost became an opportunity.
Next, Lazio's offensive became more and more intense.
Hernanez's long-range shot from the top of the box was saved by Cesar. Motta then took a corner and Chiellini headed it into the corner, but the ball went just wide.
In the 53rd minute, Candreva shot over the crossbar.
A minute later. Lazio opened the scoring. Falaoni crosses from the flank, Cavani receives the ball and shoots into the goal.
There was a huge cheer in the nest.
But the cheer was quickly interrupted.
Because the referee made an offside gesture.
Cavani was already offside before catching the ball!
Lazio fans were frustrated, while Inter Milan fans breathed a sigh of relief.
During this time, Lazio's offensive was too strong. They were really worried that in the next attack, Lazio would break through Cesar's goal.
※※※
Although Inter Milan escaped this time, Lazio's furious offensive did not mean to stop at all.
Just a minute after that offside goal, Lazio made a comeback. Candreva latched on to Motta's pass on the edge of the box and fired a shot that went wide into the side-netting.
From some points of view. I thought the football had scored, so there was another cheer in the stands.
Of course, they were disappointed again.
It's just that Lazio fans are disappointed and disappointed, but they are not desperate. Although those two great chances were goalless.
But they feel safe.
Even if we don't score for a while, we won't concede a goal!
They continued to sing and continue to cheer for Lazio.
And in their cheering, the Lazio players are also playing better and better, completely suppressing Inter Milan.
As Chang Sheng said, when these Lazio players felt the enthusiasm and love of the Chinese Lazio fans. It resonated. They know who they are here and who they will fight for.
This problem did not exist at the Olympic Stadium before. But in faraway China, not many of their fans came. At this time, the Lazio fans in China asked them to qīngchu, no matter where they were, there would be people who supported them.
This gives them a clear purpose.
In competition, it's easier to play well.
Because this is their home stadium of Lazio!
And always treat their fans with arrogance. Inter Milan felt like they were really playing away from home.
Even if the Chinese Inter fans were fanatically cheering for them, they could not arouse the throbbing in their hearts, there was no resonance, and they could not use their full ability.
※※※
In the sixtieth minute, Lazio had a great chance.
Edinson Cavani after winning the ball in the box. Wade past Inter Milan goalkeeper Cesar, then shoot, but the ball passes the goal!
"Cavani! What a pity! Once again, Lazio missed the perfect opportunity! Lazio's attack was so fierce during this period that Inter Milan was like a ship that could capsize at any time in a raging storm......"
"Inter Milan are in a tough situation, but they have opportunities...... As long as they survive this period of Lazio's offensive...... As the saying goes, the team that squanders the opportunity will be punished! If Lazio continues to squander like this, it will be Inter Milan's chance! ”
Jose Mourinho stared at the pitch and that's what he really thinks now.
As long as he can survive this wave of Lazio's attack, he believes that the opportunity for Inter Milan will come.
The important thing at this time is patience!
He kept repeating it in his mind.
Then, in the 67th minute, Hernanes was tripped by Cambiaso on the edge of the Inter penalty area and Lazio won a free-kick in front.
Motta's free-kick hit the wall and landed right at the feet of Rocchi, and the Lazio captain didn't hesitate to shoot straight at goal!
Cesar couldn't make a save and the ball flew into the goal!
Just when Mourinho was about to be a little more patient, his team was blasted open!
Mourinho looked at what was happening on the pitch with a gloomy face.
His team is already behind, how can he be patient?!
