After retiring at the Alpi Stadium, Inter Milan ushered in a rest period - the league will be temporarily suspended until the Serie A league resumes two weeks later. This period is the national team's competition period.
Inter Milan once again has more than a dozen players going to play for the national team, and Inter Milan can only conduct mixed training again, transferring players from the youth team and reserve team...
Dick was already used to this, and there were no players worthy of attention among these Inter Milan youth team players, so Dick also planned to take this opportunity to take a rest and irresponsibly handed over the training task to
Marina, he took Charlotte back to his parents' home.
"You're doing the training, it doesn't matter if I'm here or not... There's nothing to observe now. I'm going to rest for a week and I'll give you a day off when I come back!" Dick said to Marriner before leaving.
With such an irresponsible head coach, Marriner was really helpless, but at this time it was meaningless for Dick to stay. He did not participate in the training. He usually watched the training from the sidelines mainly to observe the status of the players and make the best decision.
Good arrangement. The next round of the league is now two weeks away. It doesn't matter whether we observe it or not. It's normal to be lazy.
What's more, after working with Dick for so long, he has long known Dick's habit, which is to be extremely devoted when there is work, and extremely relaxed when not working. And he has a characteristic, that is, he can be nervous
Once he gets nervous, once the work comes, no matter what he was doing before, he can immediately put it all down and start working on the work wholeheartedly.
This trait is very admirable. After all, it is normal for a person with such control to appear a little loose. It is just that he has concentrated all his control.
This time to bring Charlotte back to Monte Carlo, the entire Monaco royal family was naturally mobilized. Princess Caroline returned to Monaco from Germany to meet her daughter, while the two princes Andre and Pierre had already
They regard Dick as their brother-in-law (brother-in-law). As fans, they are naturally happy to pester Dick to hear some inside information...
It's okay for Dick to talk about such inside information, such as some interesting things in the locker room. Although it is strictly forbidden to tell what happened in the locker room, these two princes are not gossip weekly reporters, so they won't listen to it.
Talking nonsense everywhere, so Dick didn't feel any psychological pressure at all when talking about it. Why did Bellelon open a farm in his hometown and let the local poor farm it for free and all the harvest went to those poor people? Why did Stam start from that time?
When Manchester United left for Atletico Madrid, they got instructions from Ferguson in a parking lot; why Torres was so shy when he was a child, and was once dressed like a little girl by his parents but no one saw the flaw... Anyway, it's all
Some gossip that is rarely seen in the media also made the two princes have a good addiction to gossip.
After a week in Monaco, Dick returned to Milan in a happy mood. Charlotte did not follow him this time, but stayed with her mother for a while. However, when saying goodbye, Charlotte warned
He said: "You must not go to nightclubs. If you do, you will be hanged and beaten."
"Can't I just go drink and do nothing else?" Dick protested.
"It's okay to just drink." Charlotte finally gave in.
In fact, this was just a joke. Charlotte knew Dick's character. After the season started, he rarely went to nightclubs because he had to concentrate on preparing for the team's games...
Two days after Dick returned to Milan, the players who participated in the national team gradually returned to the training ground. In these two games, many players also consumed a lot of physical energy. For example, Figo was overdrawn in the previous game.
Big, and he is the absolute main force in the national team, so Dick is not going to let him play in the next few games. A healthy Figo is much more useful than a physically exhausted Figo.
Regarding this, Figo himself also knows in his heart that he is no longer young. Accumulating physical fitness to perform better in some important games is the key to allowing him to perform better at the end of his career. In the first two seasons,
His performance in Real Madrid seems to be poor, and it has a lot to do with the fact that he is always full attendance and cannot use good physical fitness to lay the foundation for the game.
The other players are fine. After all, in addition to the defense, Inter Milan's midfield and frontcourt players are mainly young players and players in their prime, and their physical fitness is also quite outstanding.
What Ke has to do is to rotate the teams relatively so that everyone has a chance to play.
The next league opponent is the "Communist-Army" Livorno. This team performed well last season, but it is much worse than Inter Milan. Their momentum since the beginning of this season is also quite good.
, six league games with three wins, two draws and one loss, ranking at the top. In this game, they also hope to perform better and try to cause some trouble for Inter Milan. For a team that has performed well in the beginning, if they can
If you perform well against a strong team, it will also be an opportunity to improve morale and image. Maybe this performance will make the entire team better and quickly win the league.
With enough points, there will be no problem in relegation in the second half of the season, and we can even further impact the European competition...
However, the extravagant hopes of the Livorno people were shattered in the next game.
In fact, although Livorno performed well before, they still faced many difficulties in this game. For example, top scorer Lucarelli was unable to play due to suspension due to accumulation of yellow cards, which brought a lot of losses to their strength.
Big weakening - Koko, who was loaned to Livorno by Inter Milan, started in this game, but it is obvious that Koko, who has been away from the team for a long time, obviously cannot play a big role in the game.
Livorno actually has some good players, otherwise it would not have won three games in the first six rounds. Amelia, Grandoni, Galante, Colucci, and Bakayoko are all
Good players, but in this game, their head coach may be too confident. They actually sent a 3,42,1 attack formation in the away game, hoping to be more brave in the away game...
Therefore, what happened next to Livorno was tragic.
Dick sent a mixed lineup for this game. The previous continuous battles made some players a little tired. The starting lineup Dick sent was goalkeeper Toldo, defenders Maggio, Chiellini, Cannavaro and
Zanetti, midfielder Zanetti, Stankovic, Yaya Toure and Perrotta, forward partners Pandev and Toni, most South American players, except captain Zanetti, are sitting on the bench
and resting in the stands, because they all returned to South America to participate in the World Cup qualifiers, so their physical energy was naturally consumed even more.
Before the start of this game, Inter Milan reached an agreement with CCTV. In this game, Inter Milan will wear jerseys with Chinese advertisements on them - this has always existed in history, but in Dick
After coaching Inter Milan, many Chinese businessmen wanted to cooperate with Inter Milan. However, Inter Milan did seem a bit slow in business development. The changes in this game did not bring any actual benefits to Inter Milan.
The benefit is just that Inter Milan has brought some discussion among Chinese fans...
However, after the game, many Italian media believed that China's square characters brought good luck to Inter Milan - because Inter Milan, which had rotated half of its main players, went on a killing spree during the game!
From the beginning of the game, Inter Milan suppressed Livorno. They created a good opportunity in the first minute. Pandev's shot from the front of the penalty area was blocked by the opponent's defender. Stankovic once again started to shoot high.
Livorno's three-back tactic has given Inter Milan countless spaces to attack. Inter Milan itself has a lot of offensive experience in dense defense, let alone such an open attack...
In the 11th minute, Pandev took a corner kick, and Stankovic's thigh in the penalty area was touched. Chiellini, who stepped in to assist, fired a semi-volley with his left foot. The ball hit the Livorno defender and entered the net, making it 1-0.
In the 19th minute, Perrotta made a short pass. After receiving the ball, Pandev attracted the attention of two defenders and passed the ball to the wing. Zanetti passed a ground ball and Yaya Toure broke into the penalty area.
The ball was missed from the front, and Toni, who came in from the back row, pushed and scored his tenth league goal of the season, 2-0.
In the 33rd minute, Livorno defender Vargas made a mistake in returning a header. Pandev grabbed the ball before the goalkeeper, passed Amelia and shot into the empty goal, making it three to zero.
In the 49th minute, Maggio threw a sideline ball, then received Stankovic's return pass and made a pass. Galante made a not far away clearance, and Yaya Toure stepped in and volleyed with his left foot from the front of the penalty area.
The ball was scored, four to zero.
After 4-0, Dick began to make substitutions. Cruz and Di Natale came on to replace Toni and Perrotta. Inter Milan's offense continued.
In the 51st minute, Pandev took a corner kick, Cruz headed the ball over, Di Natale flew from the back point and shoveled the ball into the net four meters away from the goal, 5-0!
In the 66th minute, Cruz got the ball and played a two-on-one with Pandev. After breaking into the penalty area, he passed a defender and shot from the penalty area to the near corner to score, 6-0.
At this time, Livorno's players had no fighting spirit. They could not attack offensively and defend defensively. Dick leisurely replaced the third player, and Arbeloa replaced captain Zanetti.
, the captain’s armband was worn on Cannavaro.
In the 81st minute, Inter Milan scored their seventh goal of the game. Stankovic received a pass from Cruz and hit a curve ball from the front of the penalty area. Amelia
Failed to save, 7-0!
This is the biggest point difference in Serie A this season! The previous biggest point difference was also created by Inter Milan. They swept Treviso 5-0 in the first round, and in this game they faced sixth-ranked Livorno.
, it is surprising that Inter Milan can score such a big score!
Although the inability of Livorno's top scorer Lucarelli to play has a lot to do with their incorrect use of offensive tactics, it is an indisputable fact that Inter Milan's ability to seize opportunities is very good.
Twenty shots were taken, fourteen times within the goal frame, and an average of two shots within the goal frame to score a goal. Such a shooting rate and goal rate are indeed terrifying!
Although Juventus still won this round and was still two points ahead of Inter Milan, there is no doubt that Inter Milan's strong win also put huge pressure on Juventus.
