Chapter 89 Against Inter Milan ([-])

The media always likes to define some powerful clubs as "big clubs" as a gimmick, and fans also have their own standards for this.

Whether it is winning the Champions League or having at least ten league championship trophies... many clubs can meet these conditions.But if someone proposes that the "big club" must stipulate that it has not been relegated, Inter Milan can stand above the crowd and call itself a wealthy club.

Naturally, the two dominant players in La Liga, Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​have not been relegated. Among them, Real Madrid's worst performance in history is 11th in the league, while Barcelona's worst performance in history is 1941th in the league in the 1942-12 season.

Although there is still a club in La Liga that has never left the position of top contact, Athletic Bilbao's European results are flawed.The number of domestic league championships is only 8, and the most recent league championship dates back to the early 80s.

France is more bleak, and French football clubs are greatly affected financially and economically.Almost every season there are clubs closing down, but at the same time some new clubs are born.So they don't have a team that can survive in the top league for more than 50 years.

Paris Saint-Germain, born in 1970, is the only Ligue [-] team that has not fallen out of the top league so far. However, because of its late establishment, their club started in the French third division in the first year.

The Bundesliga is the latest to be established among the five major leagues, but they have surpassed La Liga and have 4 teams that have never been relegated-Hamburg, Stuttgart, Borussia Mönchengladbach and Bayern Munich.However, because Bayern Munich started from the lower leagues like Paris Saint-Germain at the beginning of its establishment, it is not considered a team that has always stayed in the top league.

England is the birthplace of modern football. As the earliest place of football professionalization, there are already countless clubs ups and downs in the football league system with as many as eleven leagues in the UK.

There are 92 official full-professional football clubs, not to mention semi-official and semi-amateur football clubs.With so many clubs, it is natural that the competitive environment of English football has long been established.

Sheffield United, founded in 1855, is the oldest football club with records in the world, but unfortunately they lost their competitiveness in the early 20th century.

As representatives of English football, Liverpool and Manchester United have each experienced several relegations in recent years. Liverpool was relegated in 1954. Twenty years later, on April 20, 1974, Manchester United was relegated because former Manchester United star Dennis Law scored the winning goal in the Manchester derby against Manchester City.

However, if it is said that they have stayed in the top league for the longest time, Arsenal, which has never left the top league since returning to the top league in 1919, can be regarded as saving some face for England.The record of staying in the top league for 78 years is not much worse than Inter Milan's 89 years and Real Madrid's 95 years.

But those are dusty history, if you want to win the championship, you can only look at the present, at least these few years.

Since 1989, Inter Milan has fallen into a trough, and has missed the domestic championship for 15 years.Especially in the Serie A season of 1993-1994, Inter Milan, which has "Ice Prince" Bergkamp and "Civet" Sosa, finally ranked 14th and was almost relegated.During the period from 1990 to 1997, Inter Milan only won two UEFA Cups in 1991 and 1994, and missed the Serie A, Italian Cup, and European Champions Cup.

However, although other results are not very good, Inter Milan, which has won the UEFA Cup twice since the 90s, is already known as having the blood of the UEFA Cup.This is what Shao Bo cares about most. They reached the final again this year. With the experience of winning the championship twice, Inter Milan will inevitably have high morale and believe that they can continue the tradition again.

And since Inter Milan was bought by Massimo Moratti, the son of the club chairman Angelo Moratti in the "Great Inter Era" in 95, and recalled many veterans of the "Great Inter Milan Era" to return to the club, the league results It started to improve, they went from seventh in the league last season to third this year.

The results in both lanes are good, the morale is high, not to mention the level of the players.

Paul Ince, Javier Zanetti...the familiar names are all on the intelligence records of the scouts.How can I deal with Hodgson? I have no idea how to beat Shao Bo at home.

But isn't there such a saying, "Offense wins the league, defense wins the trophy".What I said is that in the three-point league, if you want to get more points, you have to strengthen your offense.In the more contingent cup battle, it is more important to do a good job of defending first.

What's more, the first game between the two teams was held at Arsenal's home court.

Although it is beneficial to Arsenal to play hosts first and then away, but if they lose at home, there is no need for the second game.

According to the principle of home and away games, Arsenal only needs to do a good job of defending at home to ensure that Inter Milan will not score a goal.As long as the opponent does not get an away goal, it will be much easier for Arsenal to visit San Siro next time.

Defense!The iron-blooded defense trained in the Graham era has not faded. Shao Bo's many victories this season are also based on a solid defense and achieved through quick counterattack goals.

The team has always attached the most importance to defense, although Shao Bo had consciously asked the team to increase pass control in an attempt to make the game more attractive.But after many games, the actual effect is not so good.

But now that they are back to their old line of defense, Arsenal's players can be regarded as handy.

Ian Wright will not be starting the next game, having just consumed a lot of energy against Newcastle.And two strikers familiar with Italian football will partner together, Bergkamp and Zola.

Zola has been playing in Parma before he transferred to Arsenal in the winter. Compared with Ian Wright, who has played with Inter Milan several times, he is also more familiar with Inter Milan's defensive style.

However, Bergkamp has an advantage over Zola. He played for Inter Milan before coming to England.It's a pity that this outstanding player who has won the top three European Ballon d'Ors for many times has performed in a mess at Inter Milan.Perhaps it was at the time when Moratti took charge of Inter Milan that Inter Milan's "superstar black hole" had already formed.

Fortunately, Inter Milan did not make good use of Bergkamp at that time, otherwise Arsenal would lose another team legend.

Time flies, after nearly a week of rest.London welcomed a group of "visitors" from Milan, Italy.

On May 5th, at Highbury Stadium, Inter Milan, who came to London after a long journey by plane, came here to start the UEFA Cup championship battle with Arsenal in the 8-1996 season!
Inter Milan flew to London two days ago, but they did not borrow Arsenal's training grounds and facilities-Arsenal is still renting the lawn of the University of London, which is really shameful.

Today's Serie A is known as the "Little World Cup", and the 7 Serie A sisters take turns competing for the league championship and the European championship.Now, it's time for Inter Milan to promote Italian football.

The European War and the European War naturally mean that teams from different countries in Europe compete, and what they promote is their country's football strength.Today, when there is no gunpowder war, the football game has become a war of the new era.

The media in England put Arsenal in an important position to maintain the dignity of England as the birthplace of modern football, which made Shao Bo feel flattered.

But Shao Bo is not an Englishman, let alone the dignity of the birthplace of modern football.Over the years, England has only won the World Cup once. In 1966, many players suspected that England had used some improper means.

However, how could the battle-tested Arsenal be intimidated by this. They had just won a European Cup Winners' Cup in 94, and many of the old men who won the championship were in the team.

In the first encounter between the two sides, Arsenal adhered to the principle of "no goal is victory" and slowly spent time with Inter Milan.

The 24-year-old Zanetti can no longer be said to be a new football star. Although Arsenal's main task in this game is to defend the goal, Zanetti still got the close-up of the camera by virtue of his two high-light defenses against Zola. .On the back of the blue and black jersey is a big number 4, a number that will become Inter Milan's legend.

Wearing the No. 2 jersey, Bergomi, like Tony Adams, grew up in a club and was awarded the captain's armband.They have never left in the past 20 years, and both are regarded as representatives of loyal ministers.

Moreover, Bergomi, who is 3 years older than Tony Adams, is a lot higher than Adams in terms of national team honor.Although he has never served as the captain of the national team, the 18-year-old Bergomi helped Italy win the World Cup by freezing Rooney Meg in the World Cup!

Although Arsenal's defensive counterattack has always been a major killer for them to sweep the league, but facing the world's first league-level defense, neither Bergkamp nor Zola could find a chance to get close to the goal.

However, Arsenal's iron-blooded defense is not vegetarian, and Inter Milan did not break through the penalty area a few times. The game was boring. If it was not because it was related to the ownership of an important trophy of the year, I believe many spectators would have left early.

　The second update!Some of the data here have to be calculated according to 97, so it is not the same as the current one, and it is very tiring to check the data.Also, I caught a cold, and the temperature dropped suddenly. The school didn't provide heating, so it was freezing to death. The third watch would probably be delayed until the afternoon, sorry.
