Volume 1: Heroes Come and Go, People Pay Attention Chapter 38 Diego; Milito (Second Update Guaranteed)
Chapter 38 Diego; Milito (Second update guaranteed)
The city of Milan now has a very special meaning to Chen Yingxiong. Every time he comes to this city and sees the familiar street scenes, he will think of the three-day "Milan Holiday".
Sometimes Chen Yingxiong also wonders: How is Ivanka doing in the United States?
But don't think that because of this reason, Chen Yingxiong will show mercy to the two teams in Milan. Football is football, emotion is emotion, they are completely different things.
This is not the first time for Chen Yingxiong to play football at San Siro. In the first half of last season, he followed the team here to play twice, once against Inter Milan and once against AC Milan.
He has no awe for this place that he could only watch on TV before and was called the most desired temple by his youth team teammates.
Milan fans consider this place a temple. But for Chen Yingxiong, this is just a slightly larger football stadium.
So he actually has little respect for those wealthy teams - he has no respect for Maradona, let alone those wealthy teams that can't compete with him.
Today, in the Meazza dressing room, Chen Yingxiong is sitting with his teammates, listening to the coach's final instructions.
"...We can't attack them. This is their home court, and they are stronger than us in terms of strength. If we attack them, we will die miserably. So we have to defend and counterattack in this game."
Although the temperament of Naples football is to move forward, it does not mean that it is brainless. Knowing clearly that fighting at this time is a dead end, but still fighting with the opponent, this is not called bravery, this is called "***".

When the players from both sides entered the field, the North Stand of the Meazza Stadium was led by the live broadcast to chant the name of every Inter Milan player who played, with great momentum.
After calling out the players' names, Inter Milan's team song "pazza_inter" began to play on the live radio. The home fans in the stands also sang along, and even more so during the climax.
Meazza's North Stand is where Inter Mira's die-hard fans gather, while the South Stand is where AC Milan gathers.
The Meazza announcer did not announce the Naples team's lineup, but when Chen Yingxiong appeared in the fans' sight, he still received a warm "welcome" from the Inter Milan fans.
Suddenly, boos broke out.
It seems that whenever Chen Yingxiong goes to an away game, the fans there will boo him.
This has become a routine.
It can only be said that Chen Yingxiong's hatred value is too high... He is born as a mt. Whatever he does or says will be considered a mockery.
Last season, he said he would double play Inter Milan, which was a mockery. How can Inter Milan fans not hold grudges?
In the North Stand, some Inter Milan fans held up cartoons that vilified Chen Yingxiong and shouted slogans that insulted and ridiculed Chen Yingxiong.
But they were a minority after all, and more people just booed.

"This game is no longer a contest between two tall guys, because Inter Milan's tall center Ibrahimovic has left the team and switched to Barcelona..."
The commentator was taking advantage of the time before the game started to introduce some situations of both sides to the TV audience.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic's move to Barcelona this summer is not the most shocking transfer news this summer. Although his transfer value is not low.
The most shocking news is the return of Real Madrid's Galactico captain Florentino. At the same time, he brought two superstars to Real Madrid in one summer - first bought from AC Milan for 65 million euros. Milan's leading star Kaka then poached Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United for a transfer fee of 90 million euros.
These two transfer transactions instantly drowned Barcelona's joy of winning the Champions League. The news that Barcelona won the Champions League and became the treble winner had not stayed in the media for a week before the headlines were changed to their mortal rival Real Madrid.
Barcelona was naturally not to be outdone, so they hired the "Swedish Tower" Ibrahimovic from Inter Milan. In order to get Ibrahimovic, the La Liga giants paid 4,500 euros plus last season's La Liga Silver Boot winner Eto'o. Someone has calculated that this transfer transaction is ultimately worth 75 million euros. If this is true, Ibrahimovic has surpassed Kaká and become the second most valuable player in the world.
The Swede was very happy to be able to join a triple crown winner like Barcelona, so at the press conference for joining the La Liga giant, he even kissed the Barcelona team emblem to show his loyalty. As a result, many Inter Milan fans were disgusted. .
Some Italian media even ridiculed Ibrahimovic for being so eager to transfer and leave Inter Milan simply because he was scared out of his wits in the competition with Chen Yingxiong for the Golden Boot. He hoped to stay as far away from Chen Yingxiong as possible, so Just left Barcelona.
Ibrahimovic later refuted this statement: "My transfer has nothing to do with him. Being able to join a great club like Barcelona is the pinnacle of my career..."
The implication is that Inter Milan is not as good as Barcelona...
As a result, the Swede's image in the eyes of Inter Milan fans was completely stinky and rotten. In this match against Naples, some Inter Milan fans even posted slogans against Ibrahimovic: "Sooner or later you will regret this transfer choice, Ibrahimovic." !”
Some fans also fell in love with Chen Yingxiong because of their hatred of Ibrahimovic. But these fans are definitely not in the north stand of Meazza...
Although this game is no longer a contest between Chen Yingxiong and Ibrahimovic, he definitely has no shortage of opponents.
Whether it is Eto'o, the silver boot in La Liga last season, or Milito, the fourth highest scorer in Serie A last season, they are all his competitors.
Especially the latter. Eto'o has just arrived in Serie A and still has some symptoms of acclimatization. Diego Milito does not exist. He has been in Italian football for several years. When he first landed in Europe, he came to Italy. At the beginning of 2004, Serie B team Genoa bought him from Atlético de Argentina and brought him to Italy. Played in Genoa for a season and a half, scoring 33 goals in 59 Italian Serie B games and sending the team to Serie A. Unfortunately, Genoa was relegated back to Serie C due to the match-fixing case. Milito was also loaned to La Liga by Zaragoza. He performed well in the first two seasons, scoring 38 goals in 73 games, but was dismissed in the third season. Zaragoza was bought out for 4.3 million euros, played 35 times and scored 15 goals. But it was a pity that Zaragoza was relegated again, and then Genoa brought him back to Serie A for 7 million euros. That is, last season, he scored 24 goals and ranked fourth in Serie A's scorer list.
Such an outstanding performance also impressed the wealthy clubs. Mourinho poached him from Genoa and became a member of a championship team.
After many years, Diego Milito finally realized his dream of becoming a wealthy player.
Now at Inter Milan, he is Mourinho's very trusted forward.
Initially, when Ibrahimovic left the team, Inter Milan fans were worried that the team's offense would be affected, but now Milito has successfully made people forget about Ibrahimovic.
The league has only gone through four rounds and he has already scored four goals, ranking second among the current scorers.
Beat Chen Yingxiong, who won the Golden Boot last season and scored three goals.
This is definitely a dangerous person.

From the first minute of the game, Inter Milan launched a fierce offensive into Naples' penalty area.
And Naples quickly stepped into the role - they shrunk their defense and waited for opportunities to counterattack in a big way.
Chen Yingxiong was also asked to participate in defense, but it was not the kind of defense that retreated to the front of the penalty area in one breath. Instead, he tried to harass the opponent in the midfield and frontcourt, forcing Inter Milan's ball-controlling players. If he could directly steal the ball and counterattack , that was simply a God-sent opportunity. Even if it can't, it can slow down Inter Milan's offensive and prevent them from attacking easily.
But this is not what he is good at.
If he rushes to steal, he will be easily passed by the opponent... It's exactly that one. If he hits it, it counts as his own profit. If he doesn't... then he doesn't hit it.
There is no experience, strategy or skills at all.
Therefore, apart from running back and forth in the midfield and frontcourt, Chen Yingxiong basically did not play any defensive role.
Mazzarri shook his head slightly when he saw this scene.
He knows that Chen Yingxiong is not good at defense, and there is no way for him to press in the frontcourt. After all, it would be too cheap for Inter Milan if they did not put any pressure on the other side.
In this game he was prepared to face a tough battle at San Siro.
Inter Milan's offensive is not only massive, but also quite threatening.
Even if Naples shrinks its defense and counterattacks, Inter Milan still presses across the board and constantly besieges Naples' penalty area. Although the whole line is pressed, the defense is not tight. Because their offense is very layered, one after another. If the first attack fails, there will be a second attack. If the second attack is gone, a third attack can be organized. In short, the football is in their hands no matter how they turn, and they continue to launch offensives, making the Naples penalty area rumble.
The momentum surprised even Mazzarri - this Inter Milan is completely different from the one last season... With the same coach, why would there be such a change after one season?
"Eto'o... made a breakthrough pass from the wing - Diego Milito! Oh - so dangerous! The Argentine forward's shot missed the goal!"
Fans screamed in exclamation from the stands of Meazza Stadium, and the momentum seemed to be able to scare people's hearts out.
Milito held his head in his hands with a regretful expression on his face.
And Mazari's brows furrowed even more...
