Chapter 453 Confidence?

In the 32nd round of the league, Inter Milan, which beat Barcelona in the Champions League, was defeated by Parma in the league.

0:2, this is not only defeated, but also zero seals.

So far, Inter Milan has also ended its 12 consecutive unbeaten games in the league.

Before Li Ze was injured, although Inter Milan stumbled, they did not lose after all, and did not lose in one breath.

After encountering the two giants of Milan and Barcelona in a row, the mental state of Inter Milan players began to relax.

Just like the consequences of Barcelona's laxity in the Champions League, Inter Milan also paid the price for their laxity.

In this game, including Li Ze, who only played in the starting lineup, his performance was not very good.

In the same round, Milan defeated Fiorentina 2:1, widening the points gap with Inter Milan.

Milan seemed to win in a thrilling manner. In fact, at the end of the first half, they led 2:0, and they kept playing in the second half.

Fiorentina didn't get back a goal until the 80th minute of the game, and the whole game didn't threaten Milan's gate much.

Compared with Inter Milan's upset, Milan seems to be more champion-like.

According to this posture, it is very likely that Milan will win the league championship, and Inter Milan may also defend the Champions League.

This season, the strongest team in Europe is undoubtedly Barcelona.

But at Inter Milan's home court, Barcelona lost the game again.

The score of 3:1 is not irretrievable, but it is obvious that Barcelona is at a disadvantage.

This script is also what many Serie A fans expect.

Everyone no longer wants to see Inter Milan win the league championship, they have won enough.

A team winning consecutive domestic league championships proves their dominance, but it also means that the overall competitiveness of the league is declining, which will make outside fans even less optimistic about their league.

More importantly, everyone is jealous.

If I can change to another team to win the championship, even if it's not my turn, I still have something to think about.

I hope that Inter Milan can win the Champions League, it is purely for Serie A as a whole.

In recent years, as Premier League teams and La Liga teams have performed better and better in the Champions League, fewer and fewer people have paid attention to Serie A.

No matter how it goes on, Serie A, which has lost its competitiveness, may not even be ranked in the top five leagues.

If Inter Milan can defend the Champions League, it will undoubtedly give those who look down on Serie A a severe slap in the face!

The media are a group of people who are very good at trying to figure out the fans' minds, and they quickly discovered the fans' good wishes.

If you really want to say, they actually have similar ideas.

Their whole life has been linked with football and Serie A.

If one day Serie A falls, what can they do?
If no one pays attention to Serie A, who will their news reports be sold to?

This is called one prosperity, all prosperity, and one loss, all loss.

Most of the media did not have this kind of foresight. After realizing what the fans thought, some media quickly started to hype.

The conjecture that "Milan won the league championship and Inter Milan won the Champions League" was quickly conveyed to all Serie A fans.

Juventus is the most upset about this news, but they can't even compete for a place in the Champions League. At this time, the yin and yang will only be laughed at.

So they put on their vests and began to mock the two Milan teams in the tone of other teams.

And Milan and Inter Milan, who are at the center of the topic, actually hope that this will end.

Even Inter Milan, which still hopes to compete for the league championship.

If you can choose, choose one of the Champions League and the league champion. Most fans still prefer to defend the Champions League.

"It's not that simple..." Li Ze couldn't help but smile wryly when chatting in private.

Not to mention winning the Champions League, even if Barcelona is eliminated, it is not so sure, it is better to say that the risk is great.

The chances of winning five times are not bad.

Of course, when speaking to the outside world, he didn't mention the Champions League champion, but he was full of confidence in eliminating Barcelona.

As for whether he is really confident...

"Of course not." Li Ze spread his hands, "Barcelona is at home and away. Those are two teams."

从16-17赛季到18-19赛季3个赛季的比赛就可以看得出来。

In these three games, Barcelona lost miserably away and won at home.

This has been the case for 3 consecutive seasons, 3 consecutive seasons have contributed to reversal games, 1 season has reversed opponents, and 2 seasons have been reversed.

在主场的比分分别是6:1、4:1和3:0。

在客场的比分分别是0:4、0:3和0:4。

The disparity among them couldn't be more conspicuous.

In this era of Barcelona, ​​the gap between away games and home games is not that big.

But there is no doubt that Barcelona will be stronger at home.

After playing the 32nd round of the league, Inter Milan will face Barcelona.

The poor performance in the league also made many Inter Milan fans think that the club focused on competing for the Champions League.

The fact is that although Inter Milan does not have a strong desire to win in this league, basically all the main players have played.

An upset loss can only be said that football is round.

There is also good news for Inter Milan, Lucio is back from injury.

Facing Barcelona in the away game, the defensive requirements for Inter Milan are even higher.

Lucio's comeback at this time has a great effect on Inter Milan.

But even if Lucio returns from injury, Inter Milan's overall strength is still weaker than Barcelona.

At this time, Li Ze recalled his "strategy" and wondered if it worked.

Looking at this period of time, Barcelona seems to have doubts about Guardiola's ability, so he said that before the game.

Benitez also assured him that he would be able to exploit his opponent's weaknesses in the first leg.

Barcelona was praised so highly, but they were overthrown by Inter Milan, which is theoretically inferior to them.

Logically speaking, their top management should do something.

It's a pity that the interval between the two rounds of the Champions League quarter-finals is too short.

Li Ze didn't know if his strategy would be effective, or how effective it would be.

He just felt that there might be weaknesses in it, and that there might be hope for Inter Milan to advance, so he did it.

But as time progressed, Li Ze put all these behind him.

Barcelona is indeed very strong, but they are not without chance.

If Barcelona is really invincible, how could they lose to them in the first leg?

Does Li Ze really have no confidence in defeating Barcelona as he said?
If someone asks this question, Li Ze will answer like this——

"It's not a question of confidence."

"The duty of a professional football player is not to play but to win!"

"Since the opposite opponent is Barcelona, ​​then the Barcelona opponent himself must defeat them!"

"It's work, not faith!"
