Chapter 84 Bird's Nest Italian Super Cup
On the evening of August 2008, 8, BJ time, a team of more than 6 people from the Inter Milan team arrived at BJ International Airport.

The Nerazzurri originally had a large number of fans in China. With the joining of Jingxuan, this team is called their "home team" by the lovely Chinese fans

As soon as the team got off the plane, a large number of fans gathered outside the airport. Facing the spectacular scene of huge crowds, the head coach Mourinho was also very surprised, and turned around and joked to Jingxuan:

"Jing, is it because our team is too popular, or you are too popular? I have never seen such a spectacular pick-up scene."

"It should be all of them, haha, coach, it may also be because of you, you must know that you are a star in the coaching world!"

Jingxuan's words amused Mourinho, and the two talked and laughed one after another and waved to the fans on both sides.

Before arriving at the hotel where he was staying, Jingxuan felt that his hands were numb from the autograph.There is no way, the enthusiasm of the Chinese fans is too high, and he can't refuse.

Before entering the hotel, a large number of fans kept shouting Jingxuan’s name collectively, so that the Brazilian international Maicon was a little surprised and said to Jingxuan:
"Jing, you are so popular in China! It's like Ronaldo and Ronaldinho are in Brazil."

"Hehe! If there were dozens of players like me playing in Europe in China, I wouldn't be so famous."

Jingxuan didn't continue this topic, and walked into the hotel gate with a smile.

Maicon shrugged, greeted the fans on both sides, and walked into the hotel.

BJ世界2009年8月8日20点，拥有最多达10万个座位的中国国家体育场（鸟巢）座无虚席。

This time last year, the Bird's Nest captivated the eyes of billions of people around the world, delivering a spectacular and sensational performance at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

A full year later, two powerful teams from Italy, Inter Milan and Lazio, will stage the pinnacle of the Italian Super Cup in this stadium.

Chinese fans who already regard Inter Milan as the "home team" have already expressed the slogan: "Let the Bird's Nest become our Meazza" in practical actions.

Looking around, except for sporadic Lazio jersey colors, the entire "Bird's Nest" is filled with blue-black ocean, which looks extremely spectacular and elegant.

The 21-year-old Italian Super Cup has always been a landmark game for championship teams to start the new season.

In the previous 21 competitions, a total of three times were held outside Italy. The United States has hosted it twice, and the African country Libya has also hosted it once.

And this summer, the Italian Super Cup moved to Asia for the first time and came to China.

The Chinese fans who pay the most attention to Italian football are lucky to be the first audience to appreciate the demeanor of world-class stars at close range.

In fact, at this time last year, the Italian Football Association intended to move the Italian Super Cup to China, but unfortunately due to a series of reasons including Jingxuan's injury, it failed to take place.

This year, Chinese fans are finally fortunate to be able to witness the pinnacle of the two traditional teams, Inter Milan and Lazio, on the spot.

In the Italian Super Cup last summer, Inter Milan played against their old rival Roma for the third consecutive year, which has already turned off many fans.

After a lapse of one year, Mourinho once again met a team from Rome in the Italian Super Cup, but this time the opponent was replaced by the city's arch-rival Lazio.

You must know that the Lazio team has won the Italian Super Cup twice. If they can beat Inter Milan this time, they will tie the latter's Super Cup winning record.

In today's Blue Eagles, the 23-year-old Uruguayan goalkeeper Muslera is mature, and there are elite players such as Rozenal and Kolarov in the defense.

The strength in the midfield is also good. The experienced Brocchi and Dabo sit in the middle, and the new international Foggia is even more talented.

Several strikers Rocky, Zarate and Pandev are also proven first-class shooters.

Considering that Lazio did not make too many personnel changes this summer, the Blue Eagles are not without chance of winning against Inter Milan, which has undergone another large-scale change of blood with a steady team.

Of course, in turn, if Inter Milan can successfully win Lazio, it will be able to tie the previous record of 4 Super Cup wins created by Juventus, thus approaching the highest record of 5 Super Cup wins created by AC Milan.

The Genoa double stars that Inter Milan spent 4000 million euros to acquire this summer-Diego Milito and Thiago Motta, as well as the former Barcelona star Eto'o who exchanged with Ibrahimovic to join Inter Milan, may appear here. in a heavyweight match.

In addition, what Chinese fans are most looking forward to is that Jingxuan, who has been recuperating for a whole year, has returned to the team from injury. It is said that Jingxuan is in a good training state.

In today's game, "Madman" should arrange for him to play, so that the 10 Chinese spectators at the scene can get a close-up view of the Chinese star's demeanor.

Inter Milan, with many soldiers and generals, will no longer be short of manpower as it was in the war with Rome last year, so it is forced to let Cambiasso play as a central defender.

As for who will fill the position after veteran Figo retires, and whether new aid Lucio can make his debut, people are looking forward to it.

With the entry of players from both sides, the suspense of today's game was finally revealed, and thunderous applause and cheers erupted at the scene.

The two-serve players took a group photo, shook hands, and picked sides. Everything went very happily.

Although Jingxuan was placed on the bench by Mourinho, he is very likely to make an appearance as a substitute in this game. Mourinho must give him this face.

Inter Milan has a somewhat surprising 4-3-1-2 formation, and the goalkeeper is still the Brazilian goalkeeper Julio Cesar.

The four defenders from left to right are No. 4 Captain Zanetti, No. 26 Chivu, No. 6 new aid Brazil captain Lucio and No. 13 Maicon.

In the midfield, new aid Thiago Motta made his debut as a central midfielder, while Cambiasso and Stankovic separated the left and right midfielders.

No. 11 Ghanaian international Muntari tops the position in front of the midfield. In front of him is the front line composed of No. 22 new aid Diego Milito and No. 9 Eto'o.

Inter Milan's starting lineup has changed a lot. Whether the running-in effect is good or not will be known soon.

Lazio also formed a 4-3-1-2 formation. The goalkeeper is of course the potential star Muslera. The four defenders are Kolarov, Sivilla, and Diakite from left to right. and Lichtsteiner.

In the midfield, Brocchi, Baronio and Matuzaren sit in the backcourt, while Mauri, Rocchi and Zarate form Lazio's attack line.
