The days of playing football with Da Luo

Chapter 536 Psychological Warfare

The confrontation between the two teams began with psychological warfare.Mourinho is one of the head coaches who like to use psychological warfare the most.

As early as in Italy, Mourinho said in an interview: "I know Manchester United very well. On the contrary, Ferguson doesn't know my Inter Milan. This is our huge advantage."

When he arrived in Madrid, he said again: "Ferguson is a coach with outstanding achievements, but he is too old and too conservative. He has not adapted to the football of the new era. Although Manchester United can still dominate the country, but now In the intercontinental arena, they will suffer. Football tactics must keep pace with the times, and I will tell him during the game what the best tactics are now."

Ferguson was not angry at all, and shouted from the air: "He has such a temper. I don't blame him, I understand him completely. Although there was some misunderstanding between me and him at the beginning, we are good friends now. I bet, wait for the game After the kick, he will call me and apologize."

Mourinho saw that he failed to provoke Ferguson, so he shifted his firepower disgruntledly, targeting Manchester United's core players Ricardo and Rooney, deliberately provoking conflicts between them: "Ricardo is the best player in the world. One of the players is right, but Rooney is too. And after Ricardo came to Manchester United, Rooney's state has not been as good as before. They didn't play 1+1=2. Rooney is a real talent, his achievements It shouldn’t stop there. Ricciardo likes to run in the middle too much, and Rooney, who is squeezed in the middle, loses his tactical flexibility. I don’t think they are suitable to stay in the same team.”

Ricardo didn't speak, but Rooney jumped out: "I don't have much personal relationship with Ricardo, our personalities are too different, but I agree that he is an excellent player, and the cooperation with him on the field is very good." Pleasant. And he's a nice guy, humble, respectful and genuine. I don't think he's upstaged me. I'm who I am and won't change for anyone. My stats have dropped this season, but the fans I can see what I have done for the team and I am helping the team in my own way. Now we have won 4 titles and we are about to get the 5th and the most important one. We will start a new dynasty .In this dynasty, Ricciardo and I are important components, and we don't envy each other's achievements."

After the provocation failed, Mourinho was not discouraged, and played another card: "Inter Milan brought Ricardo to Europe and helped him embark on the road to superstardom. Without Inter Milan, there would be no Ricardo. Today. But Ricardo chose to leave at that time. I understand his approach. As a professional player, he cannot resist the call of Real Madrid. But I think he owes Inter Milan too much."

Ricardo had to stand up and speak out: "During my time at Inter Milan, I always fought for the team wholeheartedly, and I was worthy of my professional ethics. Inter Milan trained me, and I also rewarded Inter Milan with a championship. I always love With that touch of blue and black, Inter Milan has a special place in my heart. But in this final, I will definitely show my best performance. I am a professional player and will not affect my performance on the football field because of personal feelings .If I score against Inter, I won't celebrate."

Mourinho's psychological warfare did not achieve his desired effect, but he is not surprised by this.Ferguson is scheming, Ricardo and Rooney are gradually maturing, and they will not be easily defeated.

After two days of silence, at the press conference before the game, Mourinho continued to create friction: "No matter how righteous Ricardo said, he is always a traitor to Inter Milan. His teammates will not forgive He and the fans will not forgive him either. The lads are already trying their best to compete with him. In order to win, we will do whatever it takes. Foul tactics are also a kind of tactics.”

"We defeated the defending champion Barcelona, ​​which is enough to prove our strength. In my opinion, although Ricardo has won 4 consecutive double championships, Messi is not inferior to him, and even better than him in some aspects. My The team has found a way to deal with Manchester United, we are good at defending, we are good at attacking, I can't think of any reason why we can't win."

Ferguson avoided arguing, but simply answered the reporter's questions and announced Manchester United's squad in advance.

Manchester United's starting 11 are: Van der Sar, Evra, Vidic, Ferdinand, Neville; Carrick and Fletcher partnered in the midfielder, Rooney in the front, Ricardo in the left, and Warren in the right West Asia, single striker Ronaldo.

game day.

During the warm-up before the game, Ricardo took the initiative to walk to the Inter Milan player's area and shake hands with his old teammates.

His teammates back then have now become the legends of Inter Milan. Zanetti, Materazzi, Cambiasso, Samoel, Cesar, Maicon, and Rico all hugged him cordially.Sneijder, who had worked with Real Madrid, also took the initiative to shake his hand.

"Don't take it to heart," Zanetti told him. "We don't see you as an enemy. Mourinho is just using psychological tactics."

"I know," Licado said with a smile, "It's impossible for me to regard you as enemies. In today's game, we are opponents. After the game is over, we are still friends."

Maicon, who has grown into the world's number one right back, said bluntly: "Ricardo, you have to be careful. I will not show mercy today, but I will not deliberately use killing tactics. You must not get injured. I am still waiting." You lead us to lift the World Cup together."

"Don't cry when I passed you by."

"I won't be passed by you! Let the horse come over!"

Ricardo walked towards Rico again, and the two embraced tightly.

"Licardo, my good brother, can you let some water in this game, I have never won the Champions League!"

"Let me introduce you to Manchester United next season," Ricardo said with a smile, "I won this year's championship first, and I will take you to win it again next year."

Ricko punched him, "Hey, how about this, I will win a championship this year first, and next season I will join you and win a championship with you."

After exchanging pleasantries, Licado returned to his warm-up venue, but his eyes drifted involuntarily to the stands.

Most of the fans have already entered the field, and the Inter Milan fans played a huge TIFO, with images of him and Ronaldo on the screen, with a sentence underneath: "Thank you for bringing us a happy time."

Neutral Real Madrid fans also unfurled a giant banner: "Welcome home!"

Ricardo was in a good mood.

After warming up, before returning to the locker room, he and Ronaldo went to bow to the fans of Inter Milan and Real Madrid, causing the fans to laugh and scream.
