"How about it, I said we are still ahead by three points."
At the press conference after the game, Dick's smug expression made the reporters itch with hatred. Zeman next to him laughed. To be honest, head coaches like Dick are really rare. He
He seems to enjoy annoying people, and more importantly, he can continue to lead the team to victory. Such a head coach is indeed rare. Just being able to always win is already amazing, let alone others who always win.
The head coach doesn't have that much time to compete with everyone.
And what about Dick? He is like a hedgehog. Even if others don't take the initiative to provoke him, he still likes to provoke others. This makes everyone eager to see his jokes, but he is always the only one who sees them.
Just for the sake of others’ jokes…
Such a person is indeed quite annoying - as his opponent.
Perhaps because they both hate Juventus' head coach, Zeman didn't have any ill feelings toward Dick. After the press conference, he took the initiative to extend his hand to Dick: "Nice job, but be careful, someone might come."
Deal with you."
"I know, but we have to let them have this ability." Dick smiled slightly: "No matter how arrogant someone is, it is only within the scope of football, and within the scope of football, I am not afraid of anyone."
After winning this game, Inter Milan will usher in another UEFA Cup match. They will next challenge Sevilla away from home in midweek. Next, they will return to Italy and go to Rome to participate in the league match against Lazio. Then there will be
They will face Sevilla at home in midweek and Fiorentina at home in the weekend league. Then, they will face the second round of the Italian Cup without losing all their international players...
In the away game, Dick sent out a number of substitutes. Although Sevilla is currently on the rise, they do not have Alves in their team - Alves is doing well in Dortmund and has never thought about moving.
Thinking about it, after Reyes left, Sevilla doesn't have many good players now. Navas and Baptista are their top stars now.
Dick rotated Cordoba and Zanetti, sending Maggio and Pasquale on the wings, Mascherano, Farinos, and Karagounis in the midfield, and the forwards
Recoba, Martins and Cruz.
This lineup encountered stubborn resistance from Sevilla in the away game, and the luck of the Inter Milan players did not seem to be particularly good. Karagounis missed an excellent opportunity, and Recoba's long shot from outside the penalty area was again
It hit the crossbar, but the performance of the defense was still very good. Cesar twice saved the threatening shots of Baptista and Navas. In the first half, the two sides tied at 0-0.
flat.
In the second half, Dick replaced Recoba and replaced him with Di Natale - such a substitution had an immediate effect. After assisting, Maggio received the ball and shot hard from a long distance. The ball hit the opponent's defender.
Reflected into the penalty area, Di Natale cleverly appeared at the landing point of the ball, raised his foot to shoot directly against the ball, and scored the ball into the gate of Sevilla!
Relying on this golden goal, Inter Milan won another victory in the away game - with the game against Stuttgart ahead, many people felt that there seemed to be no more success if Inter Milan entered the quarterfinals.
question.
For this season's UEFA Cup, Inter Milan is the biggest favorite - they should not have played in the UEFA Cup, but due to various problems, they failed to enter the top four last year, so they have to go
Playing the UEFA Cup, and so far in this year's UEFA Cup, there are no traditional strong teams. Only Newcastle, Sporting Lisbon, CSKA Moscow and a few other teams can compete with Inter Milan.
It is precisely because of this advantage that Dick uses so many substitutes in the game. After all, for Inter Milan, their biggest task now is still the league rather than the cup. What Inter Milan desires most is the league championship.
!
However, it seems that it is still a bit difficult to win the league championship. Inter Milan has not been able to win the championship for so many years, and it is not just due to their strength. Their luck has indeed not been very good.
Next in Rome, Inter Milan began to encounter such bad luck. They had a huge advantage throughout the game. They took nearly 30 shots in the game, but failed to score a single goal. Instead, Lazio relied on counterattacks.
Filippini scored a goal before the end of the first half. If Cruz, who came on the bench, had not once again shown his magical substitute style, then Inter Milan might have lost its unbeaten record!
One to one, this was the final score of the game. The soldiers of Inter Milan were very unconvinced by this draw. More importantly, Juventus and AC Milan won both rounds of the league. They scored one to one respectively.
Victory with a score of zero, Inter Milan is now only one point ahead of Juventus, and AC Milan is only five points behind Inter Milan. The Serie A championship situation has begun to become blurred!
"We will overtake Inter Milan! They have begun to tremble now, and have begun to be afraid! It is absolutely impossible for Inter Milan to win the league championship, because they have completely lost the power of the past! They look strong, but a draw will
It can make their players extremely panicked!"
In a football program, a guest who supported Juventus shouted hysterically. In fact, what he said was also what most Juventus fans thought, so what if Inter Milan was seven points ahead of us?
?We are not afraid either! Look, we are only one point behind you now, you losers, go to hell!
Inter Milan fans are beginning to feel worried. After all, they have gone from a seven-point lead to a one-point lead. There is a big difference. Inter Milan's recent state has indeed been affected, with one win and two draws.
, and Juventus is getting better and better as they fight. If this fight continues, Inter Milan's situation is indeed not good...
In this case, maybe there is only one person who is not shaken.
"We are still one point ahead, boss." Dick said easily after receiving Moratti's call: "Don't worry, everything is under my control."
"But we are only one point ahead..." Moratti's words were still full of worry. To be honest, he has suffered too many blows in the past few years, not only him, but also the entire Inter Milan.
All the fans are, which causes them to be extremely unconfident.
"After the winter break, we scored two points more than Juventus." Dick laughed: "You know, our state is not worse than Juventus."
After hanging up the phone, Moratti shook his head. Dick indeed said it was easy, but could it really be so easy?
Maybe, it really is that easy.
Although he was only one point ahead of Juventus, Dick didn't seem to be affected in any way. He would do whatever he had to do, and those who needed to rotate would still rotate.
In mid-week, at home, Dick sent out a mixed lineup of half substitutes and half main players to deal with Sevilla. This approach seemed normal. After all, they only won one goal in the away game, so they may not be able to advance at home.
The defense field deployed all the main players, Toni and Cruz partnered the striker in the frontcourt, and Mascherano, Semioli, Farinos and Di Natale were deployed in the midfield. Such a strong attack
The lineup also has good defensive capabilities, but the midfield seems a bit disjointed, but it is enough to deal with the current Sevilla.
Inter Milan withstood Sevilla's counterattack at home. They continued to use excellent defense to allow Sevilla's forwards few opportunities. In the frontcourt, they began to continuously instigate counterattacks, with both wings
After getting the opportunity, he creates opportunities for the two centers in the penalty area. Tony is full of strength, while Cruz is very good at running and grabbing points. Just crosses from both wings can allow them to create more opportunities.
.
Inter Milan scored a goal in each half, defeating Sevilla - the two goals were exactly the same, both Farinos scored the ball in the midfield, and Semioli broke through from the wing and then crossed to help Toni and Kremlin.
Russ scored with headers respectively. Such a result made Sevilla feel very helpless...
2-0 at home and 3-0 in the two rounds. Inter Milan won Sevilla and entered the quarterfinals of the UEFA Cup. In the quarterfinals, they got a good opponent, Rapid Vienna from Austria. This is nothing.
It is a strong team, and it is not a team from the four major leagues. With Inter Milan's current strength and the state it has shown, even if it sends all the substitutes, it may be able to pass.
This is obviously good news for Inter Milan - you must know that there are already opinions among Inter Milan fans to give up the UEFA Cup and concentrate on playing in the league. They value the league more, but Dick seems not to want to do anything.
Let it go, it is also a good thing to encounter a team with weak points.
During the next weekend's competition, Dick showed everyone his stubbornness.
"Toldo, Zanetti, Cordoba, Materazzi, Cannavaro, the defense has not changed, but in the frontcourt, Perrotta and Stankovic came on, Mascherano
There is no problem in starting two consecutive games, but on the front line, it is the trident of Recoba, Adriano and Martins... Dick has gone too far in this rotation. Tony is in such good condition, but he is still
Sitting on the bench..."
The commentators were complaining about Dick's behavior, but Dick sat on the coach's bench with a relaxed expression, as if he was sure that he would win this game...
Adriano's performance was outstanding.
Facing Fiorentina, where he once played, Adriano performed quite well. He scored the first goal with a thunderous long-range shot in the first fifteen minutes. Then before the end of the first half, Adriano
The timely distribution of the ball created an opportunity for Recoba to face the goalkeeper. However, Recoba did not take the credit, but passed the ball to the other side. Martins stepped in and succeeded in pushing the ball into the empty goal.
Adriano scored twice with a header in the second half, and Perrotta scored Inter Milan's fourth goal. Inter Milan defeated Fiorentina 4-2 at home, after the advantage was reduced to one point.
Inter Milan withstood the pressure and won this round of the league!
"Rotation? I have long said that in the second half of the season, all players will get more playing opportunities. I am really not nervous. If you have to think that I am nervous, then I can't help it, but don't forget,
We are still ahead by one point. Remember, a one-point lead is a one-point lead. No matter whether the advantage in winning the championship is one point or how many points, it is still the championship, isn't it?" Dick smiled easily at the press conference.
