Chapter 540 Fighting Rubin Kazan Again
The Italian Derby is the most important game in the first half of Serie A. In the end, this game did not live up to the expectations of the fans. Red cards, misjudgments, brawls, world waves, superheroes... Except for penalties, all the classics became classics. elements are present.
Inter Milan and Gao Xiaodong became the big winners in the Italian Derby. Inter Milan scored three points and kicked Juventus out of the championship team. Gao Xiaodong became the fourth Inter Milan to perform a hat-trick. The Milan player also surpassed Di Natale to become the top scorer in Serie A, adding a lot of weight to his competition for the European Golden Boy Award.
After the game, Gao Xiaodong was undoubtedly the darling of the major media, a popular figure on the headlines.
But Mourinho did not let Gao Xiaodong focus on the former. The madman who was punished for the fourth time in a year was also a popular figure in the media. Unlike Gao Xiaodong, Mourinho faced criticism Voices.
Some media believe that it is irresponsible for Mourinho to applaud the referee. He has repeatedly challenged the referee and takes pleasure in challenging, satirizing and protesting the referee. I am afraid it will bring some unexpected losses to Inter Milan. Gao Xiaodong, who was in a state of mind, saved Inter Milan. If Mourinho is sent off next time, will Gao Xiaodong still be so amazing?
Some media also believe that Mourinho's repeated red cards are because he has been admired by British fans after experiencing the success of Porto and Chelsea, and has become very arrogant. However, in Italy, fans, club executives, media, and opponents all do not recognize his ability, nor are they used to his arrogance, which makes Mourinho have a confrontational mentality.
"Gazzetta dello Sport" made suggestions to Mourinho, thinking that in the Italian arena, Mourinho is far from proving himself and far from achieving people's expected record. He should turn his grievances into motivation to work hard, and try to use his record to silence the critics. Instead of making enemies on all sides, grandstanding, and making yourself a star.
In addition to Gao Xiaodong and Mourinho, the other focus is undoubtedly Melo. His red card made Juventus completely passive, and he no longer had the ability to overtake the score. After the game, the media severely criticized him. I think he and Diego were bought as the cornerstone of Juventus' revival, but they failed to live up to the expectations of the fans and their own worth. Juventus lost their hope of winning the championship before halfway through. He and Diego are the culprits culprit.
Racial discrimination and Baresi also became the focus of media criticism after the game. Although racial discrimination is very serious in Italian football, the media still has a clear-cut stand against racial discrimination. The reporter believes that after the Football Association issued a ticket, Juventus fans still Such arrogant discrimination against blacks and yellows is undoubtedly a slap in the face of the Football Association. If no severe punishment is imposed, there may be no blacks and yellows willing to play in Serie A.
Baresi blocked Mourinho's gun unintentionally. Originally, the Italian journalists' firepower should be concentrated on Mourinho, but now Baresi has to share at least one-third of it.
Criticism worth mentioning,
Praise worth mentioning, the Italian derby has passed, a day later, the media's attention shifted to the midweek Champions League group stage.
Of the four teams participating in the UEFA Champions League in Serie A, only Fiorentina, who is not a wealthy family, will advance to the group stage. Inter Milan and Juventus can qualify after a draw with their opponents. AC Milan must beat Zurich in an away game if they want to ensure their qualification. A tie depends on another The result of a game.
Obviously, now half of the Serie A championships have fallen into the hands of Inter Milan. The goal of Juventus and AC Milan can only be the Champions League, while Inter Milan's championship is soft, and their goal is also the Champions League.
The Italian media believes that among the top three in Serie A, Inter Milan is in the best situation. Although their opponent Rubin Kazan is not easy to mess with, Inter Milan is playing at home and the team is in good condition. They lost to Kazan at San Siro Rubin's odds are slim to none.
The situation of AC Milan is slightly worse. Their opponent Zurich is a weak team, but AC Milan is playing away, which is slightly more difficult than Inter Milan. However, Zurich is not a direct competitor of AC Milan, even if AC Milan loses or draws. In another game, Real Madrid is strong and can beat Marseille, so Milan can qualify even if they lie down.
Among the top three, the most difficult is the Bianconeri. Juventus is playing at home, and the score is 1 point more than the third place Bayern. A tie can qualify, but when the opponent is Bayern Munich, all these advantages are not guaranteed. , no one knows what miracles the German chariot can create, even if they beat Juventus in an away game, it is by no means an upset.
Although during the Serie A civil war, the Italian media each supported the teams that were closely related to them, but when the Champions League started, the media unanimously gave advice to the top three, detected the enemy's situation, cheered and encouraged them, hoping that they can play the small World Cup. , to keep the shaky third league position.
For Inter Milan, the last battle of the group is not only to qualify, they also hope to get the first place in the group.
Now Inter Milan and Barcelona have the same 9 points, they have exactly the same record, and the goal difference is the same, both are 2. If they want to compete, they can only see who scores more goals and concedes fewer goals in the last round .
In terms of strength, Barcelona's opponent Dynamo Kiev is similar to Inter Milan's opponent Rubin Kazan, but Dynamo Kiev has already determined that they will not be able to qualify. Rubin Kazan will be able to qualify after defeating Inter Milan. Inter Milan wants to score a big score Much more difficult than Barcelona.
Although Mourinho hopes to win the first place in the group, he is worried that the players will rush forward in order to score more goals and underestimate the enemy. Instead, they will be attacked by Rubin Kazan with mature overall tactics. Before the game, he repeatedly emphasized the first and second place in the group It’s all the same. There are no underdogs in the top 16. Inter Milan should not think about how many goals to score, but should first complete the goal of qualifying, and then consider other things. It is stupid to think about the first place in the group before qualifying. It is also disrespectful to the opponent.
Mourinho took the lead and was strong, so he tried his best to suppress the emotions of the players and fans and prevent underestimating the enemy. However, Rubin Kazan wants to break the boat and beat an opponent stronger than himself in the away game. Therefore, the old coach of Rubin Kazan should not Deyev's approach before the game was completely opposite to Mourinho's.
Berdeyev emphasized before the game that Rubin Kazan is not a rookie, nor is he a belly. They can beat the defending champion Barcelona in the away game, and they can also beat the Serie A champion Inter Milan at home. Arm-wrestling ability, as long as Rubin Kazan plays the momentum against Barcelona in the away game, and with a little luck, they will be able to beat Inter Milan and break out of Group F.
Kazan Rubin's midfielder Dominguez also believes that Kazan Rubin still has the hope of qualifying. It is not an impossible task to beat Inter Milan in an away game.
Judging from the odds offered by the three major European gaming companies, Inter Milan is still widely favored. However, the opponent only conceded one goal in the home game. No one can guarantee that Rubin Kazan will not make another upset... …
