The strongest winger

Chapter 292 Responsibility

******
On the second day after Valencia arrived in Milan, there was almost a small page in mainstream European newspapers describing Aiello's 'ambition'!
Of course, what I want to express more is a kind of disgust and ridicule.

Among them, Gazzetta dello Sport used a relatively controversial headline on the front page of the Visual Champions League: "Arrogant Chinese" to describe Aiello. Although it is very controversial, it is not a problem in Italy, a country with relative freedom of speech.

The text said, "Ai, a young Chinese player from the desert of football, uttered wild words when interviewed by reporters, and even said that his goal in the Champions League this season is to win the championship! God, I swear!! This is the first time I have heard such arrogant words, Champions League champions? I almost thought that the Champions League champions were distributed by their family, haha..."

"...Although UEFA Lennart Johansson once praised him in public and said that he has the potential to become a new generation of superstars, but... we can only see from his arrogant language that he does have the potential to become a superstar, but he is not a football superstar, but... a cold joke superstar, and he is unique!"

The comments of "French Football", which just awarded Ronaldinho the European Ballon d'Or, are more general, with praise and criticism, which can be regarded as a relatively middle judgment: "In this world, people with goals are always worthy of respect. After all...the goal will have motivation, and the motivation will complete the goals set before. They complement each other. This is what every professional player should learn.

At the same time, the "Valencia Sports Daily" from Valencia expressed full confidence in Aiello, because the author of this article is Aiello's "brainless fan" Enrique Wien: "Although in many people's perceptions, Ai is an arrogant person, but from my perception, he is a very charismatic young player with goals and dreams, and is good at realizing his dreams. I kept my promise..."

But the Champions League is completely different from other competitions, so while supporting Aiello, Enrique Wien also left him a way out, "... I believe it is the same in the Champions League. This is not a blind pursuit, but the fact that I have been in front of me. Even if this grand goal cannot be achieved this season, who can guarantee that it will not be the next season? I firmly believe that...Ai will definitely bring us a Champions League trophy for Valencia!"

Immediately, Aiello was loved and supported by almost all Valencia fans. You must know that at the beginning of the century, Valencia had won the Champions League runner-up for two consecutive years, and those were the closest two times.

At the same time, it also prevented the loyal fans of Valencia from experiencing the taste of the Champions League, and Ai Luo's remarks evoked their ultimate expectations for the team!
The champion of the UEFA Champions League is a flaw in the hearts of Valencia fans, and at the same time... it is also the honor they are most looking forward to!
Therefore, the number of Valencia fans who rushed from Valencia to Milan to support the team suddenly increased significantly. Although they may not be able to buy tickets to support the team on the spot, they still have to use practical actions to cheer for the team and express their support for Aiello!

In addition to "Valencia Sports Daily" having a "brain fan" like Enrique Wien, there is also a sports media in Italy that expressed support for Aiello.

This is a report by Paulo Drapau, editor-in-chief of "Torino Sport". The background of the picture in the article is the moment when Aiello helped the Chinese National Youth Team win the World Youth Championship this year and held up the trophy independently. The text said: "This is a very good boy. Whether it is on the court or in life, it makes people feel the drive that a young man has. Therefore... His goal is also unique, the Champions League champion? I think many players have had this goal, and there are also many players. I dare not imagine it like this, but he (Ai Luo) dares, he is a young man! Young people should have goals and ideals, only in this way can they be motivated to succeed! We are not qualified to laugh at a person who has pursuit, because this is equivalent to laughing at ourselves..."

The bias of this report by Paul Drapau is very obvious, and there is a clear contrast with the "Gazzetta dello Sport" from Italy.

What Ai Luo didn't expect was that he just stated his goal in the Champions League. He didn't expect that it would cause such a big response, which was also unexpected to him.

Of course, there are still many things he doesn't know.

There is a reason for the bias of "Turin Sports News"!

In order to ensure that the tactics of the fifth round of the UEFA Champions League group match that started the next day would not be leaked, Mancini adopted a closed training in the joint training on the last day. Any media were blocked outside the training ground, and only when the training was over would he accept interviews with reporters.

As usual, just after the first training session, Adriano, Cesar and Materazzi sat together, while Veron, Cambiasso, Cruz and other Argentine nationalities sat together, and the players on both sides were clearly separated.

As soon as Adriaso sat down, Zanetti came over, ignoring the doubtful eyes of other Argentine gang members. In his eyes, the team's victory is more important than anything else!
"What do you think of this home game?"

Adriano and Materazzi raised their heads at the same time, it was Captain Zanetti!This face must be given, if it is other Argentines, they can ignore it according to their mood, but Zanetti is different.

"Of course I will win with all my strength!!"

Adriano answered very simply.

Zanetti was very satisfied with Adriano's answer, and then he looked at Materazzi again, and the meaning was self-evident.

Materazzi knew that Captain Zanetti's question before the game must not be as simple as just asking for opinions.

Although he usually looks very upset, but his thoughts are very careful, "Don't worry, captain, I will not be impulsive in this game. The winner must be our Inter Milan!"

Zanetti nodded again in satisfaction, but he was a little worried about Materazzi's character, so he reminded him again, "Marco, this game has a great impact on our performance in the Champions League this season. If we want to go further in the Champions League, winning the first place in the group is an urgent matter. I know that you have a little bit of trouble with that Chinese kid, but I hope...you must stay calm and pay attention to your actions when defending, you know?"

"Understood, Captain!" Materazzi quickly agreed.

Zanetti was relieved when he heard Materazzi's assurance, but he did not go to the 'site' of the Argentine gang, but to the young coach Mancini.

What he didn't know was that after Materazzi left, he had another thought in his mind: hum!The game must be won, but you can't be too kind to that Chinese kid!
Thinking of two yellows and one red in the first round of the Champions League group stage, Materazzi felt very angry. Why should a professional player who has just started be so dragged?

Adriano is the person who knows Materazzi best in the team. Although this guy is indeed a good man in life, he has a different face in the game. He is a desperate Saburo that all opponents are afraid of, so he often does some impulsive things on the field...

Thinking of this, Adriano laughed at himself, let alone himself?Didn't they fall into endless defensive quagmire in the first round of the UEFA Champions League group stage this season because of fighting spirit?

Immediately afterwards, he clenched his fists again, thinking in his heart: This game must be won!But...my performance must be better than that Chinese kid!Wash away the shame of Mestalia! !

Zanetti walked towards Mancini slowly, he did not call Mr. or boss like other players, but called Mancini's name directly.

"Roberto, I've already said what you told me, is there anything else?"

Mancini recovered from his thoughts, turned his head to look at Zanetti, "Thank you Javier, if you win this game, you will get credit for it!"

When Zanetti heard what Mancini said, he was stunned immediately, and then subconsciously asked, "Is Valencia so difficult to deal with?"

"How do you feel about our defensive capabilities?"

Mancini did not answer the question positively, but asked Zanetti another question.

Zanetti has a good habit, that is, he likes to think twice. After hearing Mancini's question, he fell into deep thought. Although the team's offensive ability is not as good as traditional rivals like Juventus and AC Milan in Serie A, and also not as good as Sampdoria, which advocates offense, Inter Milan's defensive ability is unquestionable. It is currently the team with the fewest goals in Serie A.

"We are the team that has conceded the fewest goals in Serie A, and our defensive ability should be considered very good!"

"Yes, but... why did we lose 3:0 in the first round?" Mancini asked in a deep voice.

Zanetti frowned, and suddenly a figure popped up in his mind, "Is that kid messing up our defense line?"

"Yes!" Mancini nodded in satisfaction. He now appreciates Zanetti more and more. He must be a very good head coach after he retires!

"So... I plan to use you as a defensive midfielder in this game, specifically to defend Ai, Esteban, I am still a little worried, but you are different! I believe you can do your best!"

Listening to Mancini's opinion, an image of defending Aiello flashed in Zanetti's mind. It was a feeling of helplessness, but thinking that this game is indeed for Inter Milan, there is no room for loss, so Javier Zanetti, the spiritual leader of the team, naturally cannot be timid before fighting!The sense of responsibility in my heart kept cheering me up: that's just a fledgling kid, nothing special!
