Chapter 81 The tradition of the Italian team (continue to ask for the month)
When Carraro resigned and Mazzini resigned, some media brought up Chang Sheng's words again. They told readers: "Do you think this matter is over? Wrong! This has just begun!"
While the whole of Italy is shocked by the subsequent reactions triggered by the exposure of the "Phonegate" incident, let us turn our attention to Eindhoven, the Netherlands.
Lazio, the winning team, is currently training here for the UEFA Cup final.
In fact, the day after Carraro resigned, the entire Lazio team came to the Netherlands and started training.
The reason why I left Italy is because the "phone scandal" is getting worse now, and the whole of Italy is not immune.
In that case, staying in Italy will only prevent your team from preparing for the game and be deeply affected by it.
That's why Chang Sheng brought the team to the Netherlands, hoping to escape from the center of this matter.
However, the Italian football scandal has swept across Europe, and other European media have paid close attention to Italy's "Calciopoli" incident.
As the only Italian team left in the European competition this season, Lazio has naturally attracted much attention.
Journalists flocked to Eindhoven to interview and report on Lazio's preparations, but they also wanted to ask how they felt about what was happening in their home country.
Chang Sheng went to the Netherlands just to let the team avoid this matter. Unexpectedly, when he came to the Netherlands, more reporters came to interview him.
So Chang Sheng had no choice but to issue a gag order to the team, preventing them from discussing the "Phonegate" incident in front of reporters and media.
If that doesn't work, he will consider not allowing the players to accept any form of interviews until they play the UEFA Cup final...
But there has to be someone to face the reporters. Not to mention other things, just talking about the press conference before the game, there has to be someone to attend.
This is something that can only be done by Chang Sheng.
But Chang Sheng doesn't care. If he is asked to face reporters, he is not afraid. If his players are asked to face reporters, he won't know what will happen...
Moreover, the shady situation in Italian football has also affected Lazio's evaluation.
Many people now look at Lazio through colored glasses. They think that since Juventus has problems, who knows if Lazio also has problems?
This season, Lazio was able to rank second in the league with such an ordinary lineup. I'm afraid no one would believe it if there was no problem, right?
Let's think again about how Lazio solved the economic crisis... They were able to handle the Italian treasury and tax department. The agreement they made with the Italian tax department at that time caused many people to be dissatisfied. They thought it was problematic and the government was obviously biased.
Lazio.
Why the favoritism? Just because Lazio is the capital team. If the capital team goes bankrupt, it is simply a slap in the face of the Italian government, so they absolutely cannot allow Lazio to go bankrupt.
Lazio's performance in the league this season also proves this - they have someone above them!
This can explain why Chang Sheng led such a team that was put together for less than one season and was able to achieve such outstanding results.
The German media first began to question Lazio's performance this season. Their views were similar to the above analysis. Anyway, they believed that Lazio's outstanding performance must have an ulterior background. Maybe in a few days, the Italian investigation will find out
Lazio was also deeply involved in the Calciopoli case.
Or maybe the news that Lazio is involved in the Calciopoli scandal will be revealed on the day of the UEFA Cup final?
That would be awesome.
By then Lazio will definitely have no time to worry about the UEFA Cup final...
※※※
The German media is keen on hyping up this matter, and Chang Sheng knows exactly why.
Because Lazio's opponent in the UEFA Cup final was Schalke 04 from Germany!
They defeated Middlesbrough in the semi-finals.
The German media are hyping this up just to interfere with Lazio's preparations. As for whether they have any evidence for saying so... The media never needs evidence to break the news! All they need is a mouth.
If they are right, they can proudly claim that they know the inside story. If they are wrong, they can pretend not to mention it. In this era of information explosion, people's attention shifts very quickly.
It won't be long before no one remembers the nonsense they used to talk.
But regardless of whether they guessed correctly or not, as long as they can influence Lazio before the UEFA Cup final, they will be considered successful.
In order for their team to win the championship, the media will do anything they can.
In the past, in such important games, the media from both sides would definitely spit on each other and have a war of words before the game.
But the disadvantage for Lazio this time is that Schalke 04 has the German media to help them build momentum and speak out, while Lazio does not.
The focus of the Italian media at this time is all on the "Phone Gate". There are not many Italian reporters who come to interview to report on Lazio's preparations for the UEFA Cup final, not to mention that most of these few people are focused on the "Phone Gate"
I came here to find out more about the "Calciopoli" from Lazio.
In Italy, the media had little interest in Lazio's final, and no media stood up to speak for Lazio and refuted the German media.
Lazio is completely alone.
However, Chang Sheng is not shy about the Italian media speaking for him. Most of the Italian media are helping him if they don’t criticize him...
When fighting wars of words, he never relies on the help of the media, he relies on his own mouth.
Regarding the slander from the German media, Chang Sheng retorted: "Yes, they are right, we not only have people in Italy, we also have people in UEFA! Otherwise, our team has been patched together for just one season.
How can a team with less than 100,000 players advance all the way to the UEFA Cup final? I suggest the German media dig deep into this, find out our backers in UEFA, and restore a bright future to European football!"
What he said made the German media present extremely embarrassed, and their faces turned red, white, and then black.
They just patronized Lazio and forgot basic logical issues.
If there is a problem with Lazio's outstanding performance in Serie A, then Lazio also performed well in the UEFA Cup and reached the final, wouldn't that be a bigger problem?
It's really like shooting yourself in the foot...
The British tabloids also joined in the fun and asked Chang Sheng to talk about the phone scandal that was happening in Italy.
Chang Sheng refused to answer: "Does this matter have anything to do with the UEFA Cup final?"
The reporter from the British "Sun" thought for a moment and said: "You are also an Italian team..."
Chang Sheng raised his eyebrows: "Are you implying that we are also involved in the Telephone Scandal?"
The reporter from "The Sun" also realized that it was very serious to say this. The German media had just been slapped in the face by Chang Sheng. They had better not pounce on them one after another, so they quickly waved their hands: "No, not..."
Chang Sheng nodded: "That's good, I refuse to answer questions about the phone door."
The British reporter was also speechless.
A local Dutch reporter stood up and asked: "But you can't deny that what is happening in Italy will indeed have an impact on your team..."
Chang Sheng replied: "I think this is a good influence."
Chang Sheng dared to say this because Chang Sheng already had a plan in mind. Moreover, he was also familiar with history and the future.
In this year's World Cup, Italy has also become a group of mourners because of the Calciopoli scandal. No one is optimistic that Italy, which is on fire in the backyard, can win the championship. Brazil, the winner of the last World Cup, is the number one favorite, and the host Germany is not bad either.
England is the strongest this year, and Argentina, under the leadership of Bielsa, plays football with passion, beauty, and results...
But it just doesn’t feel like Italy.
The result? It is very clear that Italy has won this World Cup.
The Italian team seems to have such a tradition. When they are subject to controversy and criticism, when they are not favored by the world, they can burst out with huge energy and accomplish things that others think are impossible.
.
The last example was the 1982 World Cup. At that time, there was also a scandal before Italy went to the World Cup. Rossi, the team's top scorer, had just been released from the football supervisor for gambling. As a result, such an Italian team became the world champion.
West became the top scorer of the tournament with six goals.
The 2006 World Cup in Germany proved this again. Italy was surprisingly united in that World Cup, with everyone performing their duties and performing well. In the end, Italy's victory can be said to be the victory of the entire team.
And Lazio is also an Italian team.
Although it is an Italian team that is "the most Spanish in Italy", it is also a serious Italian team.
Chang Sheng firmly believes that this matter is good for his team and will not cause any harm.
He is a head coach who is good at taking advantage of situations, whether it is in selecting teams or playing games.
Whatever happens in the real world, he is good at using it to help his team improve its combat effectiveness.
This time is no exception.
For such a big thing, the effect on improving combat effectiveness is even more significant.
He listened to the questions from these media reporters and even sneered in his heart.
Come on, come on, let the storm come more violently!
The more outsiders criticize, despise and doubt Lazio, the stronger Lazio's combat effectiveness will be.
He is the best at converting negative energy into positive energy!
"Are you sure, Mr. Chang?"
The Dutch reporter stared at Chang Sheng and asked.
Chang Sheng sneered inwardly.
Don't think that I will be afraid of you just by hinting at me with your eyes.
Pediatrics!
He stared back without showing any signs of weakness: "Of course, I am the head coach of the team. I am more sure than you."
The reporter had no choice but to sit down.
But no one knows what is going on in my heart.
Chang Sheng knew that he was just waiting to see his own joke. He was talking so slowly now, and he didn’t know how he would die by then...
So much so.
So Chang Sheng also sneered in his heart.
Let’s see who laughs last and who laughs the best! (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
