Section 41: Zebra and Snake (1)

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 In Italy, the most eye-catching football match is not the Milan Derby, but the El Clasico, between Juventus and Inter Milan. The two teams have never been relegated before, even if Juventus was promoted to Serie B because of the goalkeeper.

It took a year, but he soon came back.

This year is the first year that Juventus returns from Serie B. In the first half of the match two months ago, they drew 1:1 at the Alpstadion. The collision in the second half will be a month and a half later in late March, so

The two collisions within one week of the Italian Cup undoubtedly attracted the attention of all Italy.

As the two top giants in Italian football, there are many grievances between the two sides. Inter Milan is based on internationalization, so it will naturally have a bad fate. Let alone Italy, in any country that insists on international players,

It is inevitable that they will be squeezed out by local forces. In the 100 years since the two sides met, "Gazzetta dello Sport" once concluded that 70% of the penalties were in favor of Juventus.

So in a sense, Inter Milan's tragedy is self-inflicted. However, this gives Inter Milan a spiritual temperament similar to Liverpool, which was ostracized by the whole of Europe after the two major tragedies: the greater the external pressure, the more united! People from all walks of life

The country's stars are able to fight side by side at Inter Milan without being completely divided due to cultural, geographical and other factors, which is closely related to external pressure.

From the perspective of fans, Inter Milan fans are quite resentful in Italian football. Because they suffered a lot of bad things, they always remember them. Two years ago, Juventus was relegated, and Inter fans were celebrating the championship.

At that time, he also burned a photo. It was exactly eight years ago in the El Clasico, referee Carlini who ignored Ronaldo being brought down in the penalty area!

On the contrary, Juventus fans are much calmer, because... they always take advantage. This is a bit like the fans of Real Madrid looking at the fans of Barcelona. They are very calm, and when they are angry, they can only say: unreasonable.

Inter Milan currently leads the standings and has a clear intention to win three consecutive Serie A titles. As for Juventus, the relegation two years ago directly caused the loss of half of the main lineup. Zambrotta and Thuram went to Barcelona, ​​and Cannavaro

He and Ferreira went to Real Madrid, Ibrahimovic and Vieira came to Inter Milan, and the whole situation was divided into pieces by other giants. Fortunately, Nedved, Del Piero, Trezeguet, Buffon and others resolutely stayed.

down, but even so after the big changes in the lineup this season, the stability is always a bit worse than before.

Therefore, the general view among critics is that this year's "El Clasico" in the Italian Cup may not be as intense as in the past. Of course, both the media and fans are still full of expectations. As the only team that has never been relegated, Inter Milan certainly hopes to humiliate its old rivals. And Juventus

On the contrary, defeating Inter Milan is the return of the king.

However, Juventus is still working hard to qualify for the Champions League, so it is difficult to do as hard as Inter Milan in the Italian Cup. Champions League qualification is an important source of finance even for a club like Juventus.

There are still many speculations about the game focused on Wang Ai. "Gazzetta dello Sport" commented: "Two games, 30 minutes, 3 goals, it seems that it can't be better. However, this passionate and unrestrained player in the cold England

The Chinese seem to be uncomfortable coming to Milan. The goal efficiency cannot hide the melancholy about the future behind the game time. In front of the upcoming Bianconeri, will the Chinese, who are said to have psychological problems, still be able to gallop unrestrainedly in the Apennines?

?”

When Wang Ai saw this comment, Zanetti called: "Wang, I didn't tell the press about your news. However, I had a discussion with Cambiaso... You know, everyone

We are all worried about you."

"Thank you, captain." Wang Ai smiled: "It doesn't matter, after all, I really have a problem."

"So, how do you feel now?"

Wang Ai breathed a sigh of relief: "It's still the same, but it won't have much impact on the game. By the way, captain, has the lineup for the day after tomorrow been announced?"

"Well, it should be most of the substitutes." Zanetti explained: "The situation of winning the championship this year is relatively good, so we have to concentrate on playing in the Champions League."

"The opponent is Liverpool, right?"

"Yes, you have been in England for more than two years, are you familiar with them?"

Wang Ai nodded and was about to say what he learned from beating them, but suddenly thought that he couldn't play now. Zanetti on the opposite side immediately noticed Wang Ai's words and stopped laughing and said: "I mean, if you are familiar with them, you can

Talk to us."

"Okay, I will do my best when the time comes."

After hanging up the captain's phone, Wang Ai picked up the newspaper that was scratched by Wiwi in front of him and shook it. The Wiwi on the sofa and the lady at the foot of the sofa moved their ears at the same time. Wang Ai is not optimistic about the current Inter Milan and Liverpool, or even other teams.

of Premier League teams.

The decline of Serie A is most fully reflected in the competition. The veteran players are rampant, the salary is low, and there are few stars in the year. Although it does not look bad, it is just like the match between retired Tyson and retired Holyfield.

The fight is exciting, but the prerequisite is that you don't get out of the circle. If you get out of the circle, you will get beaten up with bruises on the nose and face.

Liverpool is now the fourth in the Premier League, but Wang Ai casually compares Liverpool's galloping horses with Inter Milan's current old man's walk in his mind, and his whole body trembles. He really can't beat him. He just doesn't know that he provides intelligence.

How much can change after support?

But it’s also interesting to say that the same old people are running rampant. AC Milan has performed very well in the Champions League in recent years. 02/03 When Wang Ai was in Germany, AC Milan won the Champions League. 03/04 Wang Ai went to Spain to accompany La Liga.

Ko won it once. Although he did not win it the next year, he unexpectedly eliminated Liverpool in the group stage. As a result, the Istanbul night did not appear that year. AC Milan won it again the next year. 05/06 Chelsea at its peak

With Wang Ai joining, especially after killing everyone in the Champions League, they won the final championship. Chelsea unexpectedly missed in 06/07, and Liverpool tenaciously found Milan "again", but this time they lost. Therefore, AC Milan won the Champions League

I got one every other year for the past five years.

A real big player in the Champions League! Although the Calciopoli destroyed AC Milan's Serie A for two years, it did not stop their journey in the Champions League. They are much luckier than Juventus.

Maybe a team like AC Milan, which is formed with the core of Italy as its core, can have a better understanding in the war.

Wang Ai, who was just thinking about it, put away the newspaper and prepared to go to the base for training in the afternoon. Because Zanetti said that in the game the day after tomorrow, he will play with a group of substitutes, and he will probably play the whole game.

Mancini won't be able to stand it anymore if he keeps shrinking like this.

Okay, zebra, come on!
