Chapter 387 The landlord's family has no surplus food (guarantee bottom line)
The opponents that Lazio will face in the next games are actually not weak. For example, they will soon face Inter Milan in the league.
In the Champions League semi-finals, their opponent is Manchester United.
After playing the Champions League semi-finals against Manchester United, they will face Juventus in the league again.
But Lazio fans are very relaxed.
Because Lazio had already won the championship in advance, they faced Inter Milan and Juventus one after another in the league. Lazio fans had nothing to ask for. Even if Lazio really lost to these two teams, it would not be a big deal.
Of course, it would be best to win.
It just means that Lazio fans will not put pressure on the team and they themselves will be very relaxed.
But for the Lazio team, this is not the case.
Lazio has already won the championship, but the next league is still very important.
Because they have another ambition, which is to end the season with a winning streak!
Not only do they want to win, they also want to score more goals and break their own single-season scoring record set last season.
First, they have to beat Inter Milan.
※※※
Inter Milan has been in decline since they fired Mourinho.
Under the leadership of new coach Leonardo, this team is not even qualified to compete for the championship, let alone win the championship.
Although Inter Milan did not win the championship in the first two seasons, at least they were the only team in Serie A that could compete with Lazio for the league championship. At that time, everyone was not satisfied and thought that Inter Milan should be able to win the championship.
Yes, so if he failed to win the championship, Mourinho should take the blame and resign. But now it seems that it is amazing to be able to do this...
Now in Serie A, who can compete with Lazio?
Not even one!
AC Milan, ranked second, is a full 20 points behind Lazio!
Inter Milan can't even think about the league title this season. Their competitors are teams like Udinese and Napoli.
At present, after the 33rd league, Inter Milan is ranked fourth in the league. Their goal is to maintain their qualification for the Champions League next season.
As for whether it is the qualifying round or the main draw, they don't care, as long as they can play in the Champions League.
Ranked third, one place ahead of them is Napoli with 65 points, Inter Milan ranks fourth with 63 points, and Udinese ranks fifth with 59 points.
The gap between the two teams is very small.
The team that was able to compete with Lazio in the past has now fallen to such a state, which is really disappointing.
When Inter Milan and Lazio met, no one said "this game determines the ownership of the league championship" anymore.
On the contrary, everyone is paying attention to the topic of "whether Inter Milan can qualify for the Champions League."
This change has made many Inter Milan fans very depressed.
Among fans, there are also many people calling for Leonardo to be dismissed.
It is said that Inter Milan club president Moratti is indeed considering firing Leonardo.
So next season, Inter Milan will have a new coach.
Although keeping Leonardo is not a good thing, frequent coaching changes may not be a good thing either.
The head coach changes constantly, and the tactical thinking and style cannot be fixed. It changes once a season, and once a head coach comes, so does Inter Milan's signings. This season, they were bought at the request of the new head coach.
Those people may no longer be needed when the head coach changes next season, so they will either rot on the bench, or sell them at a low price, and then re-introduce the players the new head coach wants...
Such troubles not only lead to an unstable lineup, but also cause the club's funds to be wasted. In the long run, the club's financial health will be seriously threatened.
After all, Moratti's money does not fall from the sky. He himself has no business and money-making ability. Inter Milan has long relied on blood transfusions from the Moratti family.
To put it nicely, Massimo Moratti is the beloved chairman of Inter Milan. The players and fans all love him, but in fact he is just a second-generation ancestor who loves football and Inter Milan...
Without the support of the Moratti family, he would definitely not be able to play Inter Milan.
The financial crisis sweeping the world also caused heavy losses to the Moratti family.
The fate of the Sensi family is falling bit by bit to the Moratti family.
Because the Moratti family is also involved in the oil and energy industry. However, Italian oil companies have suffered repeated setbacks overseas.
The Sensi family's oil companies were forced to retreat, and the Moratti family's pillar industry also suffered a heavy blow.
In fact, since the beginning of this season, Moratti has reduced his investment in the club because he knows that the landlord's family...has no surplus food.
How competitive can Inter Milan remain without money?
This makes people doubtful.
Another point is even more worrying.
Since Moratti took charge of the team, he has invested many years, but has not received a return commensurate with his efforts. Now that the money is almost running out, it is hard to say how long the Moratti family can support it.
Don't say it's impossible. Although Moratti loves Inter Milan, no matter how much he loves Inter Milan, it is just a toy of his and cannot be compared with the fate of the entire family.
How much did Sensi love Roma after he took over? He once said that the Roma Club was his fourth daughter. In the most difficult times, he would rather abandon other family businesses than give up the Roma Club.
But after his death, didn’t his eldest daughter Rosella Sensi sell the Roma Club?
The story of the Sensi family and the Roma Club will inevitably not happen again with the Inter Milan Club and the Moratti family...
※※※
Now, if he cannot even guarantee his qualification for next season's Champions League, I believe it will be a heavy blow to Moratti.
Inter Milan is a huge Italian club. If they can't even participate in the Champions League, it will be a real disgrace to the continent of Europe.
With five league games remaining, they are just four points ahead of Udinese.
This kind of lead is unlikely to give them any peace of mind.
If you want to ensure that you can qualify for the Champions League, the best thing to do is to win every next game.
In this way, no matter how Udinese performs, Inter Milan will be fourth in the league, and maybe they can hit the top three and qualify directly for the Champions League.
First, they have to beat Lazio.
This task is really too difficult.
Even on their home court...
Before the game, "Corriere dello Sport" published this headline: "Mission Impossible 4: Defeat Lazio!"
This is a plot borrowed from the famous movie series "Mission: Impossible", also known as "Mission: Impossible".
Mission: Impossible 4 has not been released yet, and only three parts have been filmed so far.
"Corriere dello Sport" tells everyone that this is the latest installment of "Mission Impossible".
For Inter Milan, even if they are playing at home, it is indeed an impossible task to defeat Lazio...
Of course, in movies, the protagonist played by Tom Cruise can complete even the most impossible tasks.
But unfortunately, this is the real world, not a movie.
And the most important thing...Inter Milan is not the protagonist!
※※※
Leonardo refused to reveal his starting line-up before the game and how he would play against Lazio.
Everyone thought he might have some secret weapons.
But when the game started, everyone guessed that... there was a secret weapon! Perhaps he refused to reveal it simply because he was frightened by Lazio!
Whether it's the starting lineup or tactics, everything has been guessed by the media, and there are no secrets at all.
Leonardo adopted a very active tactic at his home court, that is, playing against Lazio!
Because if Inter Milan wants to win, it cannot rely on defense.
Now everyone has a deep understanding of Chang Sheng's shamelessness.
Against other teams, you may be able to rely on defensive counterattacks, but against Lazio, defensive counterattacks are of no use at all.
When you are solidly defending in the backcourt and waiting for opportunities to counterattack, Lazio can also kick back and forth in the backcourt, but they don't pass the ball forward! If they don't pass the football, what do you use to counterattack? You press forward to steal the ball? Okay,
The space behind you will be taken advantage of by them immediately.
And if they don't step up to steal the ball, Lazio will naturally not step up. They can really fall down in the backcourt until the end of the game!
Everyone has no doubt about this kind of thing and believes that Lazio, who has always won, is 100%, absolutely, certain and will definitely be able to do it.
Even if this approach seems shameless, shameless and negative to everyone.
Chang Sheng doesn’t care.
As long as he wins, and the rules don't say that he's not allowed to fall back in the backcourt for ninety minutes, then he can do it.
Some media have called on FIFA to revise the rules and learn from basketball. If the attacking team holding the ball fails to complete the shot within the specified time, then the offensive team will be deemed to have violated the rules and the ball will be handed over to the opponent.
This is the first time that football rules have been modified in order to win more often.
The rules of football have not changed for a long time.
Regardless of whether it really needs to be modified or not, it also shows the ability to win.
Leonardo's Inter Milan must attack. Only offense can open up the game.
And Lazio, who always wins, likes opponents to attack them - there are too few teams with such lively Lei Feng.
They like opponents to attack, because when the opponent attacks, there will definitely be gaps behind them, and Lazio can seize these gaps to attack the opponent's counterattack.
With Lazio's ability and efficiency, it's really accurate...
Everyone knows this very well. So when the commentator saw that Inter Milan was going to attack Lazio, he asserted: "It seems that this game may be a big-scoring game again..."
Doesn't Leonardo know?
Of course he knows, but what can he do? He has to win. On the one hand, he wants to lead the team to qualify for the Champions League this season. On the other hand, he also hopes to use victory to prove his ability so that he can continue to stay in the international community.
Coached by Milan.
For the future of himself and the team, Leonardo had to take a gamble. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!)
