Tudou released a single chapter today, and they are starting to work hard!
We cannot be content to be inferior to others!
Come on everyone, work with me to keep our first place!
After the training of both sides, there was a pre-match press conference.
Mourinho has already attended the press conference.
Mourinho always had a bad face during the press conference.
He also made no secret of his disdain for Chinese football.
Perhaps only through this approach can he find his sense of superiority in winning. Simply speaking of the level of national football, Portuguese football is definitely much better than Chinese football.
Perhaps feeling Mourinho's "hostility", many Chinese reporters were also very rude to Mourinho, and their questions were sharp and harsh.
Mourinho showed no signs of weakness and responded tit-for-tat.
So at the pre-match press conference, it was basically Mourinho talking to the crowd.
He said: "I don't care about the Super Cup, I care more about the Champions League and the league..."
A reporter stood up and asked: "But you lost to the ever-winner Lazio in the league last season..."
Mourinho's face became even worse.
"Your question is too amateurish. There is no need for me to answer such an amateurish question!"
He put the blame entirely on amateur Chinese journalists.
In fact, reporters have been analyzing why Mourinho is so resistant to coming to Beijing to participate in the Super Cup. He was firmly opposed to this proposal from the beginning, and he has always put on a bad face after coming to Beijing.
Know who it is for.
Maybe it's because this is China, a home game with a long history of winning, which makes Mourinho feel uncomfortable.
He felt that the Italian Football Association had completely surrendered to Chang Sheng and the huge Chinese market behind him.
As a conspiracy theorist, he even believes that his Inter Milan did not win the championship last season because the Italian Serie A wanted to please the Chinese market...
Of course, this is a reason that no one can guess...
※※※
Compared with the frustrated Mourinho, winning often seems much easier and more comfortable.
First of all, the Chinese media treats him very gently.
Secondly, Chang Sheng has a psychological advantage against Mourinho and can deal with it easily. There is no need to be hysterical.
"I told my players to enjoy this special Super Cup. There are not many opportunities to play the Super Cup in China, so they should cherish it."
Chang Sheng said this.
Seems very relaxed.
※※※
After much anticipation, the main race has finally arrived.
At 8 pm on August 8th, Beijing time, the commemoration of the first anniversary of the opening of the Beijing Olympic Games and the Italian Super Cup officially started at the Bird's Nest Stadium.
The Bird's Nest, which can accommodate 91,000 people, attracted nearly 70,000 people during this game. At first glance, it was almost "full".
All the more than 69,000 tickets prepared by the organizers were sold out before the game started.
Not only the fans of Lazio and Inter Milan, but also many neutral fans. They came to see the winning style.
There are also celebrities from all walks of life.
This competition can indeed be regarded as the highest level competition held in mainland China.
In this game, Chang Sheng did not send all the main players to start.
He used this game as a warm-up match.
Therefore, the players who started the first half were not the lineup that Chinese fans are familiar with.
Gotze, Cazorla, Pavin and other players all sat on the bench.
The midfield has seen the biggest changes.
The two midfielders Meireles and Hernanes, who transferred to the team this season, both started. Chang Sheng intends to use this game to investigate
Inter Milan sent all its main players.
Even Barcelona striker Eto'o, who just joined Inter Milan, started.
It can be seen that Mourinho attaches great importance to this game and does not "not care" about this game as he said himself.
※※※
Because the game was played in China, in order to please Chinese fans, both teams wore jerseys with Chinese characters on them. Even the sponsors on the chest ads of Lazio jerseys changed their original English names to Chinese. However,
For Chinese fans, even if the name is not changed, it will not affect everyone's understanding of this company. Because this is their own domestic company and they are too familiar with it.
In addition to sponsors, the names behind the players are also in Chinese.
※※※
In the first half, both sides were still looking for match status. Although they both created several threatening offensive opportunities, no one was able to score.
After all, after a summer's rest, the feeling of warm-up matches and official matches is still completely different.
Mourinho, in particular, was working hard to defeat him and embarrass him in front of his hometown father who always wins. Therefore, the various restrictions on Lazio were very well done.
Lazio didn't have a good way to break through Inter Milan's defense.
In addition, Lazio's midfielder is composed of two newcomers.
So until the end of the first half, the deadlock on the field was not broken, and Lazio and Inter Milan were temporarily tied 0:0.
Although no goals were scored, it did not affect the fans' interest in watching the game at all.
Every wonderful move by both sides can bring them unreserved cheers from the fans.
Whether it's boos or compliments...
In the eyes of insiders, they are also very satisfied. Although they did not score a goal, both teams used the tactical ideas of the two head coaches.
This is a game of very high technical and tactical level.
Gao Hongbo also appeared in the box at the Bird's Nest Stadium to watch the game live.
On the one hand, he is here to cheer for Lazio, and on the other hand, he is here to learn.
※※※
After the halftime break, neither side made any adjustments and continued to compete with their respective starting lineups.
Hernanes and Meireles performed much better than in the first half. They gradually adapted to the atmosphere of the game and established a tacit understanding with their teammates.
When these two midfielders perform normally, Lazio's midfield will also operate normally.
On the scene, Lazio began to suppress Inter Milan little by little.
Only three minutes into the game, Balzaretti made a pass from the left, almost creating a chance.
Next, Lazio's offensive became more and more fierce.
Hernanes' long shot at the top of the arc in the penalty area was saved by Cesar with one palm. Then Motta took a corner kick and Chiellini headed the ball into the dead center, but the ball missed the goal slightly.
.
In the 53rd minute, Candreva's shot went over the crossbar.
One minute later, Lazio opened the scoring. Faraoni passed from the wing, and Cavani received the ball and shot.
There was a huge cheer in the bird's nest.
But the cheers were soon interrupted.
Because the referee made an offside signal.
Cavani was already offside before receiving the ball!
Lazio fans were upset, while Inter Milan fans were relieved.
During this period, Lazio's offense was too strong. They were really worried that in the next attack, Lazio would break the goal guarded by Cesar.
※※※
Although Inter Milan escaped disaster this time, Lazio's violent offensive showed no intention of stopping.
Just a minute after the offside goal, Lazio made a comeback. Candreva received a pass from Motta on the edge of the penalty area and shot, but it hit the side netting.
From some angles, I thought the football had scored, so there was another round of cheers in the stands.
Of course, they were disappointed again.
It's just that Lazio fans were disappointed, but not desperate. Although these two excellent opportunities failed to score.
But they felt very safe.
Even if we don't score a goal for the time being, we won't concede a goal!
They continued to sing and cheer for Lazio.
Amid their cheers, Lazio players performed better and better, completely suppressing Inter Milan.
As Chang Sheng said, when these Lazio players felt the enthusiasm and love of the Chinese Lazio fans, they resonated. They knew who they would fight for here.
This problem did not exist at the Stadio Olimpico in the past. But in distant China, their fans did not come very much. At this time, the Chinese Lazio fans made it clear to them that no matter where they are, there will be people supporting them.
This gives them clarity of purpose.
In competitions, it is easier to perform well.
Because this is their home stadium of Lazio!
And they always treat their fans with an arrogant attitude. Inter Milan feels like they are really playing away from home.
Even if the Chinese Inter Milan fans fanatically cheer for them, they cannot arouse the throbbing in their hearts, have no resonance, and cannot use their full abilities.
※※※
In the 60th minute, Lazio got an excellent opportunity.
After Cavani got the ball in the penalty area, he passed Inter Milan goalkeeper Cesar and then shot, but the ball missed the goal!
"Cavani! What a pity! Lazio once again missed a great opportunity! Lazio's offensive during this period was too fierce, and Inter Milan was like a ship that could capsize at any time in a violent storm..."
"Although Inter Milan is in a difficult situation, it still has opportunities... As long as it survives Lazio's offensive during this period... As the saying goes, teams that squander opportunities will be punished! If Lazio continues to squander like this, it will be Inter Milan's
Opportunity!"
Mourinho stared at the court, he really thought so now.
As long as he can survive Lazio's offensive, he believes that Inter Milan's opportunity will come.
The important thing at this time is patience!
He kept repeating this sentence in his mind.
Then in the 67th minute, Hernanes was tripped by Cambiaso at the edge of Inter Milan's penalty area, and Lazio won a free kick in the frontcourt.
Motta's free kick bounced off the wall and landed right at Rocchi's feet. Lazio's old captain didn't hesitate and shot directly!
Cesar missed the save and the football flew into the goal!
Just when Mourinho planned to be more patient, his team was kicked out of the goal!
Mourinho looked at everything happening on the court with a gloomy expression.
His team is already lagging behind, how can he be patient?! (To be continued...)
