Volume I, Chapter 405
When Rossetti blew the whistle for the end of the match, the Inter Milan fans in the stands clashed with the Fiorentina fans again, this time not provoked by the Fiorentina fans, but the annoyed Inter Milan who first hurled insults and threw debris at the Fiorentina fans.
However, the stadium's security guards and riot police had already prepared for several drills during the game, and they quickly cut off the passage of the two stands, and suppressed the fans in the clash with water cannons, taking away the seven leading fans.
When fans clash in the stands, there was also some friction between players from both sides in the mixed lane.
"Garbage wins and garbage." Materazzi spat at Tony.
Toni and Materazzi were entangled on the pitch, with Toni believing that he could have scored more goals without Materazzi, while Materazzi was angry that he had not kept Tony at bay.
"Garbage can't afford to lose." Tony spat back.
"You're fucking garbage."
Materazzi rushed in front of Tony and pointed his finger at Tony's nose.
"Get out of my way, don't get in my way." Tony opened Materazzi's hand.
"Fuck you, this is Inter's turf."
Materazzi stood still, looking defiantly at Toney and the Fiorentina players.
"Materazzi, you leave immediately, or I will hand over your actions to the Football Association."
Referee Rossetti spotted the conflict in the mixed tunnel at this time and hurried over to stop it.
Materazzi saw the referee coming, sneered, and said, "Wait, we still have one more game." With that, he turned around and walked towards the locker room.
"You're only going to lose more in that one."
Chen Yu had just returned from the interview, and said loudly to Materazzi with a sneer.
Rossetti frowned and said to Chen Yu: "Chen, don't say a word, you are the captain." ”
"It's not that I want to say, it's him who provokes." Chen Yu shrugged his shoulders and said to the Fiorentina players: "Hurry back to the dressing room, let a garbage block here, shame, you should have directly supported him a long time ago." ”
"It's just that we're too polite."
"You shouldn't be polite to garbage."
The Fiorentina players followed Chen Yu back to the locker room with indignation, leaving referee Rossetti dumbfounded, not expecting that the Chinese captain was even more of a thorn.
Driven by Materazzi's displeasure back in the dressing room, the Fiorentina players excitedly opened champagne in the dressing room to celebrate, and some spilled drinks on their teammates as champagne.
When Prandley came in, the locker room was in chaos, and he stood at the door for two minutes for fear of being "mistakenly injured" before daring to enter.
'Everyone did a great job and we got a good win in Meacha and I thank everyone.
Prandelli was smiling and very happy with the result of this game, winning five in a row, pulling the biggest rival Inter Milan out of the U-point gap, and tied with Juventus, which was already one of the best starts in Fiorentina history, second only to Fiorentina last season.
"Don't talk about these useless things, give us a raise."
"It's okay to take a day off."
"Let's give out some bonuses."
The players were giggling and shouting.
Prandelli smiled bitterly and said: "It's not up to me to raise salaries and bonuses, and it's even more impossible to have a holiday, and we're going to Spain to play Barcelona in three days." ”
Chen Yu smiled: "Don't talk about those useless ones, the coach will invite us to have a meal." ”
Prandley said lightly: "It's okay to have a meal, don't leave for a while, and I'll go after the press conference." Well, Chen, you come with me to the meeting. ”
Chen Yu looked at the jersey on his body that was soaked with sweat and splashed with drinks, "Okay, wait for me to change my clothes."
Chen Yu changed his clothes and went to the press conference hall of Meazza with Prandelli, and at this time the hall was already crowded with hundreds of reporters, and when they saw the arrival of the two protagonists, they all pointed their cameras and camcorders at the two of them.
A moment later, Mancini arrived, shook hands with Prandelli and Chen Yu, and then sat down to wait for the press conference to begin.
The reporters at the scene were still talking about the two managers when they arrived, because the clash between the players in the mixed tunnel had just been reported, and many reporters regretted that they were not able to film the clash.
The press officer of the Italian Football Federation announced the opening of the press conference, allowing Inter coach Roberto Mancini to speak first
Inter Milan lost and were opened up by Juventus and Fiorentina, one point less than AC Milan, which made Mancini's face look very bad.
'In the first half we played well, but after the second half we were completely out of control, a lot of players didn't play at their normal level, in the one-on-one conversations with the opponents, we didn't show our level, which surprised me, I always thought that the Inter players were the best in Serie A, at least one of the best, but now we don't have a gap with Fiorentina.
In this game we created a lot of chances but we didn't make the most of them, that's my biggest regret tonight, and that's why we lost this game, and if we had all those chances scored, the result of this game could have been a U: we won, but that's the result, we can't change it.
We play Rangers in midweek and Juventus at the weekend, and that has had a bit of an impact on our game, because the rest of the game is very important and we played a bit conservatively in the final moments
This game is over, win or lose, it's over, we need to think about the next games, we go to Turin and try to get all three points, that's no doubt and of course, before that game we have to think about it
The Champions League test against Glasgow Rangers, due to the ban, it will be a game without spectators at home, such a strange game, what kind of outcome is possible. ”
Next came Fiorentina's speech, in the face of an important victory, Prandelli was still very calm, he said: "Thanks to the efforts of the players and the support of the fans, on the road to the championship, we have once again taken a solid step forward and continue to maintain the top position, the whole team performed very well today, including the backline, Adriano almost couldn't get the ball, but we also made some mistakes, but many of our players today were extraordinary, like Frei, he made a couple of decisive saves, Chen Yu also saved a must-score on the goal line, and because of this, it was a little more difficult to win this game, but since we won, it shows that we have done well in some aspects, and we will continue to carry it forward.
I made a lot of changes in this game, but they all played well, Pasquier made the left more dynamic, Pacenza freed up Fiore, of course the main change was Chen Yu, his drop was to help the whole team with the ball, he did a good job, not only helped the midfield, but also scored a crucial goal.
After winning this game, we can go ahead with this midweek game against Barcelona, obviously, Barcelona are more difficult to play against than Inter Milan because we lack Champions League experience, but it is impossible for Barcelona to take three points lightly on us, we will not lose face in Serie A, we will try to get points in this game. ”
This was followed by Fiorentina's captain Chen Yu.
In front of the two managers, Chen Yu certainly did not want to be the protagonist, he said succinctly: "I feel Prandelli's trust in me, I also try my best to put in a good performance, I thank him, but also the club, my teammates and the fans, from the first day I came to Fiorentina, I felt their support, which is the most important thing."
The team showed their quality, we played the game Prandelli wanted, we know we weren't perfect today, but overall we played well in all positions, midfield, defence, forward, we played good football on the pitch, the whole team was in a virtuous cycle mentally and physically, it seems that we are on the rise and I believe we have a good chance of achieving the goals we set at the beginning of the season. ”
In the next question-and-answer session from reporters, reporters asked more about the team's contradictions, such as Prandelli and Mancini have played in many teams, and it is not difficult to deal with these problems, and Chen Yu also prefers to face coldly, so that reporters have nowhere to eat.
Soon after the press conference, Fiorentina left Milan and returned to Fiorentina to prepare for the match against Barcelona.
Before the game, many expected Inter Milan and Fiorentina to draw, but after the game, Fiorentina won unexpectedly away from home, much to the surprise and delight of Juventus and AC Milan.
In the hearts of Juventus and AC Milan, the number one rival is still Inter Milan, Inter Milan must be very happy to be dragged down, but Fiorentina's upward momentum is so obvious that they are shocked.
After the game, Juventus' general manager Moggi deliberately provoked Inter Milan, saying: "Inter Milan are only third in our hearts, they are now Fiorentina's defeaters, which makes us believe that last season's league position was not accidental. Of course, even so, Sunday is an important battle, and whoever wins adds a lot of psychological advantages. Of course, even if we win, we can't say that the league is a foregone conclusion, and even if we are seven or eight points ahead, we are still at the beginning of the season. ”
Mogi's words flew from Turin to Milan in a matter of seconds. Mancini said disdainfully: "Speaking of defeats, Juventus seems to have lost more than I lost to Fiorentina, Juventus don't be so complacent, their match with Fiorentina hasn't started yet, of course, I believe we will let them try to lose next week." ”
Although AC Milan is also very jealous of Fiorentina, as long as it is the failure of Inter Milan, they will applaud, this time of course is no exception, Maldini said: "Very happy, Fiorentina helped us catch up with Inter Milan, Inter Milan is still the same, there is strength but can not play, but we also have to be careful of Fiorentina, he is likely to create miracles." ”
Although AC Milan and Juventus still do not regard Fiorentina as opponents at the same level, they have taken it far more seriously than last season, and the media also regard Fiorentina as the third favorite to win the Serie A title.
