Chapter 335 Different Starts of the Blue-Black Empire

On September 2007, 9, the 12-07 Serie A season officially kicked off. The fans who hadn’t watched the ball for almost three months now found the most important part of their lives. The bars in major cities in Italy And other places finally started a new round of "golden season".

In the city of Milan, countless fans flocked to the San Siro stadium, and more fans flocked to the bar. When the Inter Milan fans looked at the excited AC Milan fans who were about to watch the game, they would always say sourly: "Bah ! Why is the first league game AC Milan’s home game?”

Immediately there will be fans next to him to comfort him: "It's okay, we can go to Naples, this year is our centenary celebration! Look at our lineup, it is extremely powerful! This year's AC Milan will definitely be under our pressure again !"

"Yeah, yeah!" A head protruded from a car next to them, startling the two of them: "This year we have another successor to Figo, Argentina's Mascherano, Turin Barone, together with Zhongguo Zhuang and Zhongwang, they are all powerful figures! This year we must be the champions! The era of the big Inter Milan is coming!"

"Hey, buddy, are you going to Naples?" asked the smarter of the two guys next to the car.

"That's right, let's go together in my car! Do you have tickets?" the fans in the car asked with a smile.

"Of course, we are worried about not being able to find a car, thank you brother!"

"It's okay! I'm going anyway!"

This is the Serie A league. At this time of year, it carries the expectations of all Italian fans and brings them countless happiness.

Whether it is a wealthy team, a mid-range team, or even a relegation team, they all have dreams and hopes in their hearts.

The beginning of every season is the beginning of new hopes. The giants hope to win the championship, the mid-range teams hope to go further, and the underdogs hope to successfully avoid relegation. In fact, from the essence of football, these three hopes are not superior. low score.

A new Serie A, a new start.

Is it the successful defending of Inter Milan, which has checked and made up for vacancies, or is it that AC Milan, which has undergone a major change, has been wiped out?

Maybe it will only be revealed when the last round of Serie A on May 08, 5.

In the first round of Serie A, AC Milan played at home against last season's No.5 Livorno, Inter Milan played away against newly promoted Naples, and Juventus played away against last season's No.10 Empoli. It's not strong, but it's not weak either. It's just a test to see how these three teams will change after a summer.

**************************************
"There is nothing special about this game. Our tactical play has been done in the pre-match training camp. Naples' strength is not bad, but they will not be our opponents. Our only goal today is to win. Everyone understands. Is it?" Mancini looked at his players.

"No problem!" The players answered in unison.

Inter Milan's starting lineup for this game is almost exactly the same as last season, except that Mascherano replaced Dacourt. This is what everyone can think of. After all, Mascherano is younger and has better physical strength. , Physical fitness is also stronger, I am afraid that the French veteran will appear more as a substitute in the new season.

Naples has a good record in the history of Serie A. It has won two Serie A championships in total, but this team is well-known to the world. It has to be attributed to the late 80s. The Naples of striker Careca and others won two championships and two runners-up in four years, but after Maradona left, Naples went from bad to worse, and finally suffered relegation in the 97-98 season. In the second division, This team, which does not lack football background and fanatical fans, stayed for ten years.

After ten years, the San Paolo Stadium finally ushered in the first Serie A game ten years later, and their opponent was last season's champion Inter Milan.

After ten years of sinking into the second division, the Naples team that was once familiar has long been beyond recognition. Few of the players in the team are well-known, except for one Darla Bona who once played for Inter Milan for a short time. Besides, there aren't any other stars.

The only interesting thing is that Naples has a player with the same name as Inter Milan's Grosso, who happens to be a left back just like Grosso, and their main goalkeeper and Inter Milan's head coach Same name as Mancini.

Lack of money is the reason why Naples has been sinking in the second division, but their football background has enabled them to attract some relatively capable players. This is why Naples has not continued to decline although they have been sinking in the second division.

But it was this unremarkable team, amid the cheers of more than 7 Naples fans, who insisted on using tenacious defense to make the mighty Inter Milan unable to start the situation in the entire first half!
"We need speed, we need more crosses to open things up," Mancini said in the dressing room.

"Cristiano, you play in the second half, Patrick has a minor injury, let him rest." Mancini replaced Vieira with C. Ronaldo, and then pointed to the tactical board: "In the second half, increase the attack on the wing, Pei, You and Cristiano can change positions more and pull their defenses. Zilatan, you should retreat appropriately to attract their defenders from the penalty area. How bold are the two fullbacks? The offensive ability is not good, and it is enough to keep two central defenders and Javier Jr."

After saying these words, Mancini slammed his fist on the tactical board: "We must win this game! Is everyone clear?"

"Yes!"

After the start of the second half, the head coach of Naples, Reja, replaced the striker Bucky with a defender, leaving only Carayo in the frontcourt. Carayo is a player Mancini is familiar with, with strong personal ability and fast speed. , is a good player in positional warfare. Mancini once thought about buying him when he transferred in the summer of last season, but after the Calciopoli incident, Inter Milan began to chase Ibrahimovic, which let Carajo go. .

After facing Inter Milan, which once brought him hope but ruthlessly broke it, what kind of performance does karaoke date have?

Inter Milan continued to attack, but Naples seemed to want to defend and keep a point, and the fans seemed very satisfied to get a point. Although the scene was ugly, their enthusiasm did not diminish at all, and they continued to cheer for the team.

"Cristiano!" Pei Wei shouted after changing direction continuously and swayed away two defenders. With a precise oblique pass, the ball was passed to Ronaldo's feet. After Ronaldo entered the field, Pei Wei even more Duo put the ball to his feet, and his speed gave Naples a great threat.

Facing the defender who stepped forward to block, Ronaldinho first made a fake move of cutting inside. The opponent was fooled and immediately moved laterally to steal the ball, but Ronaldinho deftly buckled the ball in the opposite direction and went straight to the bottom line And go, and then pass directly with the right foot.

Crespo and Ibrahimovic jumped high in the penalty area to compete for the top. Unfortunately, neither of them could reach the top. The ball was pushed out of the penalty area by the defender. Pei Wei appeared at the point where the ball landed and volleyed!
Goalkeeper Mancini stretched out his right hand to block the ball, his right hand was numb from the shock, and the defender immediately stepped up and kicked the falling ball out.

"Ha, is that guy stupid? He used his palm to block Pei's shot? You know, even if it was different, I would only dare to hit it with my fist." Cesar, who saw this scene from a distance, opened his eyes wide. Incredible to say.

Materaz shrugged his shoulders and joked: "That guy must have no sense of his hands now..."

"Hurry up and defend!" Cesar suddenly pushed Materacchi: "They counterattacked!"

Materacchi was shocked and looked up. Sure enough, Naples' Carajo received the clearance ball and was rushing towards Inter Milan's penalty area at high speed.

"Want to rush alone? You don't have the qualifications yet!" Materacchi roared, and went up to meet him. When he was five or six meters away from the opponent, he shoveled off the ground and directly shoveled towards Kalayo. .

Materazci, who has played in the Premier League for one season, is an anomaly compared with other Italian defenders. In the Italian defender's elegant and dexterous style, he seems a bit out of place.He will make vicious tackles on the players themselves at any time, even without the ball.

However, he has two basic principles: you can't get past me; your feet should be as harmless as possible.As his wife Daniela puts it: "No one is out for three months because of Marco."

Therefore, this is also why this defender with a lot of action has almost no enemies off the court. Players like Shepchenko, Ibrahimovic and Tony who had conflicts with him on the court have become friends off the court. , His popularity is also quite good, maybe the only person who did not forgive him off the court is the retired Zidane.

The words seem to be a bit far-fetched, let’s go back to the game, Materac’s tackle was very fast, Carayo did not escape, the ball was shoveled out, and Carayo himself was brought down to the ground, But the referee didn't blow it. He could see clearly that it was a clean tackle. Carayo just couldn't hold back and tripped over Materac. Strictly speaking, Carayo seemed to have fouled.

But the fans in the San Paolo Stadium quit. They booed loudly to put pressure on the referee.

The Inter Milan players were unmoved-what big scenes haven't they seen?
The rolled ball was caught by Cambiasso. With a wide-ranging oblique pass, the ball flew to the feet of Ronaldo on the right.

Due to the counterattack just now, Naples' iron barrel formation has loosened. This may be the best opportunity for Inter Milan to attack since the start of the game.

Mancini stood up involuntarily. He just got the news that both AC Milan and Juventus took the lead in the first half of the game. It was the newly introduced Torres who scored for AC Milan, and for Juventus It was also newly introduced German striker Miroslav Klose who scored the goal.

The two biggest competitors both scored goals, but his Inter Milan had nothing to do with this stubborn Naples. This is not the performance that a championship team should have.

C. Ronaldo carried the ball on the wing. This time, the Naples defenders paid more attention to him. A total of two people came up to defend him.

According to C. Luo's temper, no matter how many people are in front of him, he will rush forward regardless of everything, but as a rookie, he feels that he should pass the ball appropriately.

Pretending to take the ball to the side, but his eyes kept glancing around, hoping that some teammates would come up to meet him.

Pei Wei appeared in his field of vision, but C. Luo hesitated for a while. Pei Wei's position was not good. He happened to run on the corner of the penalty area. It was not a good position for shooting or passing.

"Give it to me!" Pei Wei made a gesture. C. Luo didn't want to pass the ball at first, but thinking of Pei Wei's core position in this team, he still passed the ball reluctantly.

What happened next made him widen his eyes. After receiving the ball, Pei Wei didn't do any unnecessary movements, but stopped the ball for a while, and then suddenly kicked up a lob shot to the far corner!

There were two defenders in front of him, but no one thought he would shoot at this time!
The goalkeeper behind the defender did not expect that in order to attack and block the pass in advance, his position was a bit forward.

The speed of the ball in the air was not fast, but the arc was very large, and it moved along a precise trajectory. Mancini almost jumped up in despair, but his arm in the air was at least one meter away from the ball!
All the Naples fans held their breath, watching the ball slowly heading towards the upper left corner of the goal!
Almost rubbing between the crossbeam and the column, the ball entered the goal from the most tricky corner, and all the Naples fans were stunned. Although they saw a great goal on the spot, it made them feel painful. Yes, this goal went into the gate of the team they supported!

There was silence on the pitch, until the referee blew the whistle for the goal to be effective, and all the people realized that other Inter Milan players rushed forward and surrounded Pei Wei!
