Chapter 568 Milan's Battle of Revenge
visiting team locker room
To be honest, for the Milan brothers in the same city, there is no home team locker room and an away team locker room.
The two teams share a stadium, although the stadium has a different name, and each has a locker room, which will never be used interchangeably.
AC Milan coach Leonardo is giving the players the final mobilization.
Leonardo is not a coach with the ability to deceive people like Mourinho and Guardiola, but facing the strongest and most brutal opponent in the league, Leonardo has to do things that he is not so good at.
"Never forget the shame of 0:7! Don't be immersed in the fear of 0:7. The opponent is still strong, but we are no longer weak. We have defeated the mighty Real Madrid in the Champions League. We just defeated Juventus 3:0 in the league. We are not afraid of anyone, we are still one of the strongest teams in the world, we are still contenders for the Champions League and the league title..."
Leonardo spoke impassionedly, but because his tone did not have Mourinho's ruthlessness, Guardiola's self-confidence, and Ferguson's domineering, it sounded like he was cheering himself up, AC Milan's The old fritters didn't feel anything when they heard it, only the newcomers like Huntelaar and Pato felt their blood boiled and they were angry.
"At the moment we are 8 points behind Inter Milan. If we beat Inter Milan, we can close the point difference to within two games. If we lose this game, we will almost say goodbye to the league championship. I don't think any player wants to see this, whether it is for revenge or for the championship, we must win this game!"
Applause finally broke out in the locker room. The old players agreed with the last sentence. No matter what, the game must be won, regardless of whether there is a head coach or not.
The young coach Leonardo's performance in the past half season is actually pretty good. Although he is eight points behind Inter Milan, he is still second after all. Although he did not get the first place in the group stage, Real Madrid is in the same group. For a fledgling young coach, this result cannot be said to be bad, but for a giant like Milan that has always had good results, this result cannot satisfy the players, especially the 0:7 home defeat, which made the players feel bad about Leon. Nadeau has never been able to trust his heart.
In the stands, fans of the Rossoneri and Nerazzurri were already full. However, because the Milan Derby and the Italian national derby were too noisy last time, the security force of the stadium has doubled. Many extreme fans and races with criminal records Entrepreneurs are also prohibited from entering the stadium, making the Meazza Stadium much more civilized than before, and there are very few beautiful weapons such as fireworks.
The north stand where the die-hard AC Milan fans are located and the south stand where the Inter Milan fans are still facing each other and scolding each other. , The security guards ignored it.
"Even if they win, it is estimated that Milan has no hope of winning the championship! Inter Milan is too stable!"
"Never mind him, as long as he can win!"
"We must take revenge!"
"Break their unbeaten record of 20 rounds."
...
AC Milan fans say so.
"Double kill Milan!"
"Double kills are necessary! Otherwise, it won't be so fun to win the championship!"
"Another 7:0."
"Another 7-0 is too cruel, let's make another 3-0, exactly 10 goals."
"Don't be too optimistic, the opponent will definitely work hard this time."
"Whatever, as long as you don't lose 7 goals, you will win."
...
Inter Milan fans said so.
Compared with a few years ago, during the Milan derby, the fans of Inter Milan are much less angry, and the mentality of the fans is more peaceful, while the fans of AC Milan have become a little impetuous.
At 8:25 in the evening, the Milan brothers finally came out of the locker room under the leadership of the referee.
The long-awaited fans erupted into applause. Before the game started, the Meazza Stadium set off the first climax of applause.
Inter Milan is still their most commonly used 4231 formation today: goalkeeper 12 Cesar; defender 13 Maicon, 6 Lucio, 25 Samuel, 4 Zanetti; midfielder 5 Stankovic, 19 Camby Yasuo, forward 10 Gao Xiaodong, 45 Balotelli, 27 Pandev; forward 22 Milito.
AC Milan has a 433 formation: goalkeeper 1 Dida; defender 20 Abate, 19 Favalli, 33 Thiago Silva, 77 Antonini; midfielder 8 Gattuso, 21 Pirlo, 23 Ambro Sini 32 Beckham, 22 Borriello, 80 Ronaldinho.
After the players came out, the on-site commentator Reca began to analyze the starting lineups of the two sides for the fans: "Compared with the first round of the Milan derby, the formations and starting personnel of both sides have undergone considerable changes. They all played in a 4312 formation. This time, Inter Milan has become 4231, and AC Milan has become 433. The AC Milan players who participated in the Milan Derby last time are now only 6 players, and the back line has changed three players. It can be seen how dissatisfied the coach Leonardo was with the back line after the first Milan derby.
However, Inter Milan has changed very little. Compared with the first round, only three players were replaced, and one of the three players replaced was Chivu with a fractured skull, and two were Eto'o and Eto'o who participated in the Africa Cup of Nations. Muntari replaced them with Balotelli, Pandev and Cambiasso. It can be seen that Inter Milan's lineup is more stable.
The first round of Inter Milan's running-in has not been successful, and they have already won by 7 goals. Now that Inter Milan has successfully run-in and has added generals like Pandev and Sneijder, we are really curious about the result of the game. "
"In the last round, Gao Xiaodong scored a hat-trick in the Milan Derby for the first time, and now it's the turn of the rookie Pandev, and of course Sneijder who is sitting on the bench. The two of them can impress the fans. In AC Milan, there are many players who played the Milan derby for the first time, but the most famous one must be the most handsome Beckham. The handsome guy Bei has now become the handsome uncle Bei. He didn't have time to participate in the Milan derby last time. This time, we are very eager for his performance. The combination of Pirlo, Beckham and Ronaldinho, the combination of Inter Milan's Gao Xiaodong, Pandev and Balotelli, will see who will die soon Let’s wait and see.”
Beep!
At 8:30, the referee Rocky blew the whistle to start the game, and the second Milan Derby of the 0910 season officially kicked off.
