In fact, the reporter who asked the question may not have had the intention of pitting the two head coaches against each other.
His question came naturally. Because Chang Sheng was the head coach of Lazio, and Mancini had also been the head coach of Lazio, and his results were pretty good. Under his leadership, Lazio won the Italian Cup, thus
Qualifying for the UEFA Cup in the 2004-2005 season made some money for Lazio, which was in economic crisis.
At the same time, both of them are successful young marshals, so it is inevitable that they will be put together, compared and compared.
So he also wanted to hear how these two people would evaluate each other. He planned to ask Mancini the same question after asking Chang Sheng this question.
Unexpectedly, Chang Sheng's answer suddenly made this question full of gunpowder.
"Mancini? Who is that?"
This answer appeared in major media the next day, which was regarded as Chang Sheng's attack on Mancini.
Mancini also didn’t expect that Chang Sheng would suddenly want to shoot himself. Although he had heard many opinions about Chang Sheng, they didn’t think highly of Chang Sheng, saying that he was a “mad dog” or something like that. However, Mancini didn’t understand why Chang Sheng was such a mad dog.
, I really don’t know much about it.
Now he understands.
Mancini seemed very angry about this inexplicable shooting behavior.
He accused Chang Sheng of having no manners or good manners.
Chang Winning's response to this was: "Winning rate is not achieved by courtesy and education. Also, now I know who Mancini is."
In fact, how could Chang Sheng not know who Mancini is?
So everyone knew in their hearts that he was humiliating Mancini.
Mancini himself knows it very well.
He is angry about this and hopes to beat Lazio at the weekend and give Chang Sheng a slap in the face.
What he didn't know was that this game had become a must-win game. His mind was filled with victory, and he simply could not accept any other outcome.
This will make him nervous.
This tension comes from his subconscious. Maybe even if it finally attacks, he won't realize what is causing it.
In this way, Mancini stepped onto the visiting team's coaching bench at the Stadio Olimpico with this emotion.
Of course, before that, he had publicly stated that he would lead Inter Milan to defeat Lazio and convey his "greetings" to Chang Sheng.
※※※
The tension between the two head coaches was tense, and the atmosphere on the field was also very tense.
Before the game, Chang Sheng specifically told his players to keep putting pressure on Inter Milan's players during the game. Their movements could be bigger and their expressions more ferocious. Chang Sheng even encouraged them to talk trash during the game.
, tell them that sometimes cursing is also a kind of battle.
"In short, you have to do everything you can to make Inter Milan's players feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable, so that they can't keep calm and compete with us, and make them nervous..."
Chang Sheng finally said this.
The players don't quite understand why Chang Sheng does this.
However, consecutive wins in the past, especially in key games, have made Lazio's players accustomed to obeying orders to win.
So they didn't ask any questions and just followed the instructions.
During the game, the Inter Milan players quickly felt the unfriendliness of the Lazio players.
For example, Lazio players committed more fouls, and after committing the foul, they would not take the initiative to reach out to show their kindness, but instead glared at the Inter Milan players with ferocious faces, as if they were the players who committed the foul.
In addition to these, when you play against Lazio players, you will hear a constant stream of swear words from them.
Trash talking is one of the commonly used tactics in NBA games. For the first time, Chang Sheng has carried it forward on the football field.
Under the influence of Lazio's all-out tactical thinking, Inter Milan's players began to perform abnormally.
They simply cannot stay calm in the face of the game and their opponents.
When Inter Milan began to behave abnormally on the pitch, Mancini discovered this, and then his heart began to beat faster - he felt nervous.
The players performed abnormally!
How come I have such a problem with this game?
Before the game, they all looked normal!
Mancini was puzzled as to why the team was performing abnormally.
This doubt bothered him and made him feel nervous.
When others get nervous, they don’t know what to do.
He wanted to turn the situation around, but didn't know what to do.
Maybe it's time to change?
No, it's too early to make a substitution...
Keep the team in a defensive formation? But this is our home court and we should attack...
Mancini's mind did not go blank. On the contrary, when he was nervous, he had many thoughts.
It's a pity that these ideas are not very reliable...
He repeatedly stood up, walked to the sidelines, frowned and observed for a while, and then walked back. But soon he would come back and repeat the process.
Then, he held a bottle of water in his hand and began to pour water into his mouth.
Chang Sheng turned his head to look at Mancini and laughed.
The other team's head coach was in disarray, and Inter Milan was leaderless!
The victory in this game belongs to us, Lazio!
※※※
In the 30th minute, Modric scored with a long shot, and the thundering cheers of the Olympic Stadium made Mancini completely fall into a nervous and anxious mood.
The young player Modric started the game and performed actively. He demonstrated his general style in organizing offense and directly threatening the opponent's goal.
His goal in this game was also his first league goal after joining Lazio.
He played for Lazio's reserve team last season and the goals he scored did not count.
Seeing Modric score, Chang Sheng stood up to applaud Modric and gave him a thumbs up.
He didn't cheer or show much excitement like the people around him.
On the contrary, he was very calm. Even when he applauded, he only had a smile on his face and did not show any excitement.
Is he not excited enough?
Of course not, no goal, every victory can make Chang Sheng as exciting as the first game.
Chang Sheng deliberately acted so calmly, as if he didn't care.
He did this to show Mancini, he wanted Mancini to see a confident, calm opponent.
With his own confidence and calmness setting off, Mancini will be even more nervous.
This was indeed the case. In the subsequent games, Mancini was obviously in disarray and did not make any effective adjustments to the difficulties the team faced.
In the end, Lazio defeated Inter Milan 2:0 at home.
Continue to remain undefeated.
Because Juventus lost to AC Milan in the last round, they are now the only unbeaten team in Serie A.
Of course, because Juventus also won this round of the league, Lazio is still second, but only one point behind Juventus.
Before the start of the season, Chang Sheng said that their goal was to ensure the top four in the league and qualify for next season's Champions League. This was even ridiculed.
Everyone said that it was wishful thinking to always win.
Now looking at Lazio's performance of ranking second in the league, it really makes those who laughed at them feel hot in the face...
This is not about competing for the top four in the league, this is about winning the league championship!
For a time, the whole of Italy was discussing Lazio's strong rise and recovery.
“After consecutive wins against three strong teams, AC Milan, Roma and Inter Milan, Lazio is currently ranked second in the league, only one point behind Juventus, who is first in the league... This kind of performance is enough to illustrate the problem -
- Admit it, Lazio now has the ability to compete for the Scudetto!"
"League championship? Why not? They are only one point away from Juventus. Although the league is still very long, no one can tell what will happen in the future... But this illustrates a possibility, and this possibility
It’s quite big.”
"Italy's rising new power and Lazio's strong recovery have been realized in the hands of a Chinese coach!"
…
As if overnight, all the comments in the media about Chang Sheng and Lazio were positive.
This surprised Chang Sheng.
Because before that, the main criticism was my own voice.
The Italian media wants to kill itself.
Chang Sheng is accustomed to this rhythm of all kinds of distortion and slander against himself.
Suddenly, when I woke up, the wind direction changed...
Chang Sheng was not happy because of this praise.
Instead, he frowned.
He always felt that this was not a good thing.
There is a saying of killing with a stick, and there is also a saying of killing with praise.
He doesn't want his team to be praised by the Italian media.
He knows the weaknesses of young players too well.
After they achieve some results, their tails are raised to the sky. They are arrogant, arrogant and conceited, thinking that they are invincible... This is the characteristic of young players. They are full of motivation, but they are also easily satisfied.
So when being interviewed, Chang Sheng kept repeating that his goal for this season is not the league championship, but the top four in the league.
He is not afraid that saying this will damage the team's morale. He even hopes that the team's morale will be suppressed.

After the game against Inter Milan, the next round of the league will not start until November 20th.
In the middle is the national team match day.
Many wealthy clubs will be spared time due to national team match days. Of course, they will also be deeply affected by the FIFA virus.
But this impact is minimal for Lazio.
Because most of the teams purchased by winning players are young players who have not yet become famous and naturally have not been selected for their respective national teams.
Therefore, Lazio can ensure the integrity of its lineup on national team match days, and then continue training and preparing for league and UEFA Cup matches.
This helps the team maintain good form and results.
It also reduces the risk of injuries for players during national team matches.
This should have been a good thing.
But Chang Sheng is not happy.
Because he found that the players began to lose their serious attitude during training. They were more concerned about what new articles the media published to praise them, rather than what shortcomings they had that needed to be made up for in training.
