[Football] Inzaghi couple

The boy's eyes were really too big, at least I will often think of those big eyes later, this is the interesting first encounter between me and Mesut.

——The Autobiography of Philip Inzaghi

With Italy being "killed" by South Korea in overtime, Italy's World Cup journey is over, and the team has nothing to summarize, so the head coach Trapattoni immediately announced the team's disbandment.

And after announcing their disbandment, these Italian internationals who had just played a physically and mentally exhausted game immediately left their preparation base in South Korea with their salutes, and many of them did not even plan to come to this country again in this life .This trip to the World Cup hurt Italians far more than the World Cup final in 94. Many people planned to find a place to stay away from football and the World Cup for a few days to calm their bodies and minds.

Inzaghi is also one of this group, and he joined Maria as soon as the team disbanded.Maria was very angry. She cursed the Korean team severely in the languages ​​she knew.Originally, Inzaghi was depressed because of injury and could not play and the team was blacked out, but after hearing Maria curse in her clear voice, she suddenly calmed down.

"Next time I don't want to leave the World Cup like this," Inzaghi told Maria when she stopped to catch her breath.But then he smiled bitterly: "It's just that I don't know that I haven't had such an opportunity." He is 29 years old and has some physical injuries. I don't know if his state will be trusted by the head coach at that time after four years. .

"It's definitely possible. I've never seen anyone work as hard as you. Robert can, and so can you." Maria squeezed Inzaghi's hand and said, her eyes were full of sincerity, and at this moment she even had an absurd The idea that she has to work hard to make money is really not good, and when the time comes to spend money, she will also give Inzaghi a national team spot.She didn't want this man to regret for life like her brother because he couldn't serve the country.

Inzaghi smiled, he took Maria's words as a wife's comfort to her husband, and didn't fully care. "Anyway, this World Cup is over for me. I want to stay away from football for a few days and help me think about where we will go for a few days? Do you want to go somewhere?" He and Maria tossed about the previous year They are so powerful that they haven't even spent Christmas together, so he thinks he should take advantage of this rare holiday to have fun with Maria.

Maria tilted her head and thought for a while: "You can accompany me to Genovia first, do you remember my friend Mia? Her home country is Genovia, and she invited us to her place as guests before. But at the time we were busy with the Cold War."

"Mia? I remember two of your college roommates? Speaking of which, the scenery in Genovia is nice, we can go there for a few days to have fun." Inzaghi thought for a while, the country of Genovia is located in Between France and Spain, although the country is small, it is a famous tourist country.Ah, by the way, he still vaguely remembered that the previous queen of that country had just abdicated this year and was succeeded by her granddaughter. There seemed to be a lot of reports about the new queen at that time. After all, she abolished the fact that the heir to the throne must Marriage is a rule that has been handed down for a long time in the royal family of Genovia.However, Inzaghi didn't pay much attention to this news, because he paid more attention to football during the league.

Maria blinked slyly, wondering how her dear Philip would feel if he knew that their end in Genovia would be the palace.

Genovia has a strong tourism industry, so the transportation industry to that country is also very convenient.Maria and the others successfully bought the tickets for the latest flight, and then hurriedly left this country that they didn't want to come back for a short time.

After a long flight, they arrived in Genovia.After getting off the plane, Maria took Inzaghi skillfully to the VIP passage.Inzaghi raised his eyebrows and followed.

Soon they saw the person Mia sent to pick them up. It was a close bodyguard of Mia's escort.

"Welcome Miss Baggio, my master is already waiting for you." The serious bodyguard greeted Maria in a gentlemanly manner.

Maria nodded: "Let's go."

Afterwards, under the guidance of Mr. Bodyguard, they walked through a special passage, and then boarded a long car with a national flag on one side and a Genovian royal family flag on the other.

"It seems that Mia's family is very powerful in Genovia." After getting into the car, Inzaghi, who was silent all the way, whispered to Maria.

"Well, you're right."

Soon Inzaghi knew that his guess was right, because they came to the palace of Genovia, and then met Mia, or the current queen of Genovia, who he heard the news before The new Queen of Genovia mentioned.

"Welcome, hello Philip, I regret that you didn't come to watch the ceremony when I held the coronation ceremony." After hugging each other affectionately with Maria, Mia greeted Inzaghi.When Mia succeeded to the throne before, it was when Maria and Inzaghi were busy with the cold war, and Maria finally came to watch the ceremony by herself.Then after the ceremony, she got double-criticism from both Mia and Avery.Now, just like Ellie, Mia also has great sympathy for Inzaghi, plus special respect. It is really not easy for a man who can bear Maria for several years.

"Hello, Your Majesty." Inzaghi also just found out that his wife's former roommate would be the queen of a European country. This feeling is quite interesting.

"Please call me Mia, I don't want to erase the existence of Mia because of my status as a queen." Mia said to him in a playful manner that didn't seem like a queen should have, she was still that American girl in her bones .

"I have arranged for you a residence in Genovia, which is a royal palace, and I have prepared a car for you. I think you don't want to take a car with the royal logo to wander around." Mia frowned. If you sniff your nose, then it's not a trip, but a tour.

Inzaghi thanked them readily. The leader of a country personally arranged the food, clothing, housing and transportation. It is estimated that they should live a very comfortable life in Genovia this time.

"But I want to borrow Maria first." Mia apologized to Inzaghi, and then motioned for Maria to follow her.

Inzaghi shrugged and watched the two women leave together. He thought the two were probably going to talk about some private conversation between girls.But in fact, if he went with him, he would be surprised by the content of the conversation between these two.

"What do you think?" Mia took Maria to drink tea in the garden of the palace, and asked Maria as soon as she was seated.

"If you don't think I'm going to shrink your personal fortune, I can try," Maria said.

They were talking about Mia's invitation to Maria to be her personal financial advisor. Mia had sent an invitation to Maria when Maria attended her succession ceremony before, but at that time Maria was making trouble with Inzaghi Regarding the Cold War, I was not in the mood to think about these things for the time being, so I didn't agree to it at the time.Now Mia saw that Maria and his wife had reconciled, so she brought up the old matter again, and Maria agreed.

Mia was very happy: "That's great, Ellie is my personal legal advisor, and you are my personal financial advisor, the three of us are together again!" After she finished speaking, she sighed again, "Actually, I am very happy. I want to make a career in a certain industry like you, instead of being a mascot all day long."

"You've got a career that you can fight for life," Maria says.

"That's right, I have to fight wits with the parliament. Since I told them in person that I will not compromise for the throne and get married, our relationship has been very complicated. Maybe I will order the dissolution of the parliament at some point "Mia said helplessly that besides the parliament, she also had relatives who had been eyeing her throne to deal with.

"As long as you can make achievements, it is estimated that your throne will be very stable."

"That's right, I need to study the current economic policy of this country. Alas, in addition to the economic aspect, I also need to make some achievements in the cultural and sports aspects, otherwise my subjects will always take me and my compare with your grandmother." Mia glanced at Maria: "I really envy your country, at least Italy is very good at sports, and you participated in the World Cup, unlike our national team, which is made up of amateur players .”

"I don't want to mention this World Cup. This is really the worst World Cup I have ever seen! I think there are not a few Italians who have such thoughts. It is estimated that all Italian teams will not see it again soon. Koreans!"

Listening to Maria's words, Mia's heart moved: "Do you think it is feasible if the royal family of Genovia buys or takes a stake in a Serie A team?" She has lived in the United States for a long time, and has heard and seen those nba, nfl The influence of the team on the lives of the people has also seen some politicians use sports to gain points for their own political interests. Isn’t the Prime Minister of Italy the owner of a Serie A team?

Maria was also taken aback when she heard this, and then she pondered: "I need to go back and make a report to study the feasibility. It should be said that there is room for operation." Recently, she heard an old colleague in the United States mention an American The speculative family is preparing to operate an acquisition of European teams, and it is also heard that some Russians and Arabs are also interested in European teams.Then these people can buy a team, why can't Genovia, who is in Europe and has sufficient funds, buy a Serie A team?So if you buy it, which team should you buy?Maria immediately thought of Lazio, which was in crisis due to poor management, and Florence, where her brother used to stay, but she needed to demonstrate the feasibility of the acquisition after returning to Italy. Talking about it can do it.

Mia was very happy to hear Maria's reply, and immediately asked her to make a feasibility report. The time was not limited, and she also knew that this kind of thing could not be done overnight.

After talking about this matter that will affect the Serie A structure in the next few years, Mia finally put Maria back.

After returning, Maria did not mention what she and Mia talked about with Inzaghi.Inzaghi had already said that he would not interfere with Maria's official affairs, but he hoped that Maria would be as honest as possible with him in terms of private affairs, and Maria also solemnly agreed.

The rest of the time is the real vacation time between them, and Genovia is indeed a holy place for vacation.They put on the national costumes of Genovia, and then ran to the village that highly restored the original appearance of the Middle Ages, tasted the local special food, and danced the local dance.After bidding farewell to history, they returned to the real society and came to the beach by the sea to enjoy sunbathing.

They stayed in Genovia for a week, and this week they were just like any other ordinary couple, which made Maria's determination to go public with Inzaghi even stronger after seeing that disgusting game. Exuberant.She wanted to talk to Inzaghi after the holidays about how they had been public, especially with her brother.Now Maria regrets it very much. If she had told her brother from the beginning, she would not have become more and more afraid to tell Baggio over the years.

After a week in Genovia, Maria and Inzaghi say goodbye to Mia. They plan to enter France from Genovia, then Germany, and then return to Italy from Germany. They can enjoy it on the way The scenery along the way.

The two continue their journey like ordinary backpackers. Of course, as a Serie A star, Inzaghi still needs to cover up when passing through France and Germany, two places with a particularly strong football atmosphere, such as hats and sunglasses is essential.

After completing their tour of France, they entered Germany.Because Maria was suddenly interested in a women's museum, they made an extra stop in NRW.

As the economic center of gravity of Germany after the war, it has become a lot quieter with the decline of the mining industry.But there are still many places that attract tourists. In addition to large and small museums, the two of them went to the nature reserve for a hiking tour, which brought them back to the time when they first met in the United States.

After running to Gelsenkirchen to visit the German Mining Museum on this day, the two of them strolled in this city that has become somewhat withered as the coal mine resources are exhausted.

The place where they walked was very close to a landmark building in the city, the Schalke Stadium, which could be seen from a distance.This recently completed building is the home of the Bundesliga team Schalke 04, and will also host the German World Cup in 2006.So walking on the road, Inzaghi would look there from time to time, and sometimes he wondered if he would have the opportunity to play in this city in 06.

"Let's find a place to sit for a while." Maria suggested seeing Inzaghi's pensive and hungry expression.

Inzaghi nodded, and they found a nearby community park and sat down on a bench.Not far from them is an open space, some children are playing there, and some younger children are still playing football together, judging from their appearance, they seem to be playing quite decently.

Neither of them spoke, but sat together to experience the feeling of tranquility.

But after a while, they were attracted by a pair of young men and women who had just walked over at the same time. Both of them looked quite distinctive.The girl can only use beautiful as an adjective. She has blond hair that is particularly bright in the sun, and a pair of deep blue eyes. She always has a smile on her face, which reminds people of Disney's Princess Aurora.

It's just that if the young couple walked together, the "Princess Ai Luoer"'s limelight would be completely overshadowed by her companions.That boy is not handsome, but he is so distinctive, his eyes are surprisingly big, but he still keeps his eyes wide open, I believe many people will look back when they pass by him—— —Hey, did I just see a goldfish become sperm?

The young couple also walked to the open space in front of Inzaghi and the others. They seemed to know quite a few children and even greeted each other.

The girl put down what looked like a tennis bag on her back, and started playing with the boy.They played football, and the boy looked very thin, but once the football was under his feet, it felt as if he was on a real football field.The football kept running from one foot to the other under his feet, just like a nimble elf.Originally, the boy played football so dazzlingly, but the girl was obviously not very proficient in football, so she couldn't grab the football from the boy's feet.

"You little devil who bullies girls." Maria commented upon seeing this scene.

"The girl's eyesight is very good, and she almost touched the ball several times." Inzaghi's judgment was very professional. He could see that the boy must have received formal football training and had solid basic skills.However, the little girl's dynamic vision is also relatively good, and many times the girl almost snatched the ball from the boy's feet.

Maria could understand Baggio playing football since she was a child. She looked carefully and it was true. The two children played well. "The little guy may have been professionally trained in football." She agreed with Inzaghi.

Inzaghi smiled: "This little guy is too honest. When playing with girls, you have to give way to the girls properly, otherwise how can you please the girls?"

Maria glanced at him: "Is this a playboy's experience?"

Inzaghi shrugged and deliberately changed the subject: "I think he has already offended the girl." He knew that if he dared to nod just now, his wife would definitely give him the lead.

Maria's attention was diverted, and she saw that the little girl was really upset. She no longer grabbed the ball from the little boy's feet, but stood still with her mouth pouted.That delicate look looks more like a Disney princess.

The little boy was a little confused: "Nini, why don't you play anymore, didn't we have a good game just now?" He was very happy, playing his favorite football with his favorite friends.

"I can't even grab the ball." The little girl still pouted and said unhappily.

The little boy rubbed his head, a little worried: "Why don't we play pass, I will kick the ball to you, and you will kick it back to me." Unlike other boys who like football, his hobby is passing the ball. Not a shot.

The little girl was still unhappy: "No, I don't like football. Not every Muller is a football player, and I don't want to be a shooter!" What annoyed her most was her last name, who said it was Muller She will definitely become a great shooter. She has been teased because of this surname since she was a child, making her want to beat someone every minute.

"But Gerd Müller, Peter Müller and Andreas Müller are all Müller who play football." Seeing the familiar threat in the eyes of his friends, as a poor little boy who has been beaten by his friends since kindergarten, he knows that if he continues to talk, he will definitely be beaten.

"Hmph!" Seeing the little boy shut up, the little girl raised her head proudly, "That's good, you can play tennis with me." They had agreed that she would play football with the little boy, and the little boy would play tennis with him. Girls play tennis, fair enough.

The little boy had a bitter face: "Okay." He knew that his little friend was very good at tennis, and he served very hard at a young age. Hit in tennis, especially when I was young when my friends were just learning tennis.As a result, when he often sees the ball approaching during football training, his first reaction is to dodge quickly. This is definitely the shadow brought to him by his friends.

The little girl was bouncing around to get the tennis bag, but she accidentally touched the football at the boy's feet, and then the football rolled to the edge of the bench where Inzaghi and Maria were sitting.

The two who had heard the conversation between the little boy and the little girl just now were still laughing because they were so close. At this time, Inzaghi saw the football rolling over, and his feet were itchy. Then he stood up, bouncing the ball non-stop on his feet, and then raised the ball high, touching the football with his forehead and shoulders, doing a set of fancy tricks that he seldom does.After all, for football players, the simpler the skills, the better, and the more they play those flashy tricks, the more likely they will hurt their careers.This is also because such tricks are easy to hurt the body if they are not done well. In addition, if you play like this on the court, you will also attract hatred. If the opponent directly comes with a big move, you can only go to the hospital bed to play by yourself.

However, although Inzaghi seldom plays like this, it is okay to do it once in a while, and it also made the two children present, and even some other big and small children show admiration in the eyes, which makes Inzaghi who has always liked children very much. Ji is very proud.Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that even Maria was watching with gusto, with a smile on her lips, which made him even more proud, just like a male peacock spreading its tail at his partner.

When he felt that the game was almost over, Inzaghi hit the football with his forehead and let the football fly towards the little boy.What he didn't expect was that the little boy would catch the football with his feet, and then kicked it a few times. Although not as skilled as Inzaghi, it can be seen that he must have practiced a lot times.

Just like an oriental proverb says - once the expert makes a move, there is only nothing.Inzaghi can now be sure that this boy has not only received professional football training, but also has amazing talent.He couldn't help feeling a little bit. It is said that Germany has a ten-year plan and has been working hard to develop youth training. It seems that they have already gained something. Waiting for the boy in front of him and his peers to grow up, the German chariot can be used again. Galloped freely.

"Sir." When Inzaghi was distracted, the boy greeted him timidly.When Inzaghi came back to his senses, he was a little dazed because he didn't know much German.

"Stupid Mesut, they may be foreigners. You can see that they look like tourists." The little girl tore off her friend's clothes, and then received a help signal from her friend.She sighed, the foreign language of the idiot beside her was so useless that it made people complain.Fortunately, Miss Stephanie's foreign language skills are excellent, um, she must be covering this idiot to light up the foreign language skill point, um, it must be!

So the little girl cleared her throat, and then asked in English under the adoring eyes of her friends: "Sir, are you foreigners?"

Inzaghi laughed all of a sudden. Why did he feel so familiar with this little girl pretending to be an adult? He couldn't help but cast a glance at Maria who was smiling slightly beside her.Then he said deliberately in Italian: "Well, yes, we are Italian."

As a result, the little girl was just a little stunned, and then replied in slightly jerky, but grammatically correct Italian: "Hi sir."

"Hey, Nini, what are they talking about?" The little boy next to him was about to roll his eyes around the mosquito coils. He felt dizzy when he heard these strange languages. He looked at Inzaghi and Maria carefully, and gently tugged Down buddy.

"They want to tie you up and sell you abroad." The little girl deliberately scared her little friend, and then saw the expression on the other side's face about to cry as expected.

"Nini, let's run."

"Please don't worry, we have no malicious intentions." Maria finally spoke, she said to the little boy in fluent German.

Hearing the familiar language, the little boy was successfully comforted, but seeing Maria and Inzaghi staring at him, he timidly moved in small steps, and then moved himself behind the little girl.

Seeing the little boy who was taller than the little girl look and move like the little daughter-in-law, Maria and Inzaghi couldn't help laughing.It was the first time they met such a cute and shy little boy, especially Inzaghi. Since he arrived in Milan, he was surrounded by a group of guys who kept losing their morals every day.He was a little curious. If such a shy little boy entered Milan's training camp, he didn't know what would happen. Would he still maintain his shyness, or would he be assimilated or even blackened?As soon as the idea came to him, he couldn't help thinking about the possibility of bringing the boy back to Italy.

Inzaghi spoke a few words to Maria in Italian, and the little girl who had always looked arrogant but secretly guarded them heard a lot. She was a little surprised. It turned out that this man wanted to bring Mesut to go to italy.

After Inzaghi and Maria finished talking, Maria nodded, and then she said to the little boy: "My husband is very optimistic about your football talent, and he wants to introduce you to the youth training camp of AC Milan. Do you want to go? ?”

"Milan? Is it AC Milan in Serie A, sir?" The little boy's eyes widened, and it seemed that his eyeballs might pop out of their sockets at any moment.He looked at Inzaghi in disbelief, did he meet Milan's scouts?But he didn't even pass the assessment of Schalke 04's youth training camp, so he could only go to the low-level red and white Essen.

Maria nodded: "It is indeed that Milan."

"But Mesut didn't even pass the Schalke 04 assessment!" The little girl's complaint made the little boy bow his head in shame.

Maria smiled and told Inzaghi what the little girl said, and Inzaghi also laughed. "There are actually a lot of famous players who had a similar experience in their teenage years."

Maria told the little boy what Inzaghi said, and the little boy smiled shyly behind the little girl.

The little girl seemed to regard herself as the little boy's protector, but she still didn't quite trust Inzaghi and the others. "But who are you, how sure are you that you will definitely send Mesut to Milan's youth training camp?" She still looked at Inzaghi and the others with the same eyes as she looked at a trafficker.

Inzaghi was a little embarrassed after hearing Maria's translation. Between him and Maria, it seemed that Maria, who was trying to get a Serie A star to play in the United States, was more like a human trafficker.After thinking about it, he simply took off the hat and sunglasses that he had been using to conceal his identity. "My name is Philippe Inzaghi and I'm a Milan player."

The little boy's eyes widened all of a sudden: "Are you Mr. Inzaghi?" He often watched the broadcast of Serie A games on TV, and of course he also watched Inzaghi's games. "Why did you play on the left side of the box against Sampdoria, and why did you choose to pass the ball to Shevchenko at that moment in the UEFA Cup against Dortmund? And..." The little boy asked several questions at once, all of which he had thought about while watching the game.He no longer cared about being shy, he just wanted to understand all these questions.

And hearing the little boy's question, Inzaghi's smile became brighter and brighter.It seems that this kid is not only talented in football skills, but also has a brain. He really wants to bring this boy back to Italy more and more.But now he'd better answer the little boy's doubts.
