The Prince of Inter Milan starts with Brother Xiaosa

Chapter 59 Good boy
  Balotelli was particularly happy after the goal. He and Leo celebrated with skillful high-fives, shoulder bumps and fist bumps.

Mourinho just nodded slightly. The cooperation between Leo and Balotelli is indeed what he wants to see.

Leo has his own careful plans on how to get to the top as quickly as possible.

For a star-studded team like Inter Milan, it is very important who takes the last shot.

A brat who always competes with others for the right to fire as long as he is on the court and likes to score goals by himself, and a young man who is good at passing the ball to provide assists to his teammates. Needless to say, you know which one everyone will like more, right?

And if he cannot get the support of his teammates, even if the head coach is willing to reuse Leo, it will be difficult for him to exert his full strength and achieve better performance.

Therefore, in his first appearance, Leo showed his excellent passing ability as much as possible, which was very wise.

He then also passed many threatening passes to Mancini, Crespo and other teammates.

But it is a pity that because the running-in time was too short, Leo and his teammates had not yet been able to form a tacit understanding, and they failed to seize the opportunity.

Del Piero sent a cross from the left rib, and Ekdal's right-footed volley from the edge of the penalty area was lifted over the crossbar by Cesar.

Leo sent a long ball from a long distance to the frontcourt, and the Juventus defender immediately cleared the penalty area.

Inter Milan midfielder Stankovic intercepted the opponent's header to clear the ball, and volleyed vigorously from the top of the penalty area and missed the left post.

Camoranesi made a pass from the front, Molinaro quickly got rid of it and knocked on the door. Del Piero followed up and hit the goal and hit the leg of the Inter Milan player and bounced out of the baseline.

Maicon dribbled the ball from the right and then moved to the left in a wide range. Leo hit the wall with Balotelli on the wing and cooperated with a one-two to get rid of Zebina's defense.

Leo made a pass with his instep from the left side of the penalty area to the back point without any delay!
  Captain Zanetti pushed forward into the penalty area and scored without being marked!

Buffon's attention was all on Balotelli and Crespo in front of him, and he failed to make a save in time.

Two to one! Inter Milan overtook the score!

Zanetti was very happy after scoring. He hugged his little brother who was assisting him.

Leo also had a smile on his face and made a comparison in his mind.

The forty-five minutes of the game passed quickly and it was coming to an end. Juventus stepped up its attack.

Chiellini came on as a substitute for Molinaro.

Del Piero knocked back from the right, and Poulsen volleyed the ball in the middle of the penalty area but was blocked by the Inter Milan defender at the near post.

Juventus took a corner kick from the right, and teenager Rossi's shot from a small angle was saved by Cesar.

The Nerazzurri counterattacked quickly. Leo made a clever back-heel pass on the right side of the penalty area. Crespo shot in front of the small penalty area and missed the far post.

In stoppage time, Del Piero dribbled the ball forward in the middle, and Leo arrived in time to tackle the Zebra Prince.

Mourinho's eyes lit up and he applauded the young man.

Leo's passing level is within the Portuguese's expectations, and it is definitely an extra surprise that he can help the team on the defensive end.

"After watching the training of some of their little guys before, I can see that his defense is not bad. Today's performance against Juventus is already very good."

Mourinho murmured to himself as he nodded.

"No, that guy Andre, why haven't you finished the report I asked him to do?"

At the end of this quarter, Inter Milan came back to win 2-1. Leo, who came off the bench, completely controlled the Thunder with two assists!
  After just forty-five minutes, Inter Milan's teammates looked at him differently.

This is a treasure! He is a good young man who can pass the ball to us!

The last quarter of the game is naturally the first "Milan Derby" of the season.

Ancelotti directly replaced the entire defense line. Abbiati made his debut after returning to Milan. Kaka's younger brother Deegan and Simic partnered as central defenders.
  In the midfield and frontcourt, only Gattuso replaced Brocchi, and the other positions remained unchanged.

This adjustment made by the Milan coach is a bit confusing. The back line is basically fringe players who are not even considered substitutes.

It's hard to say whether he can still stay in the Rossoneri after this game. It has become a product exhibition. But to say that they don't want to win at all and are ready to give up the game, then looking at the main players in the frontcourt, it doesn't seem to be the case.

For Inter Milan, Leo and Balotelli returned to the bench again, and Muntari, wearing the No. 20 jersey, played for Inter Milan for the first time.

Toldo, Dacote and Figo started in rotation.

"Boss, do you think we can win?"

Leo shook his head, he meant that he didn't know either.

Bashen burst out laughing. He misunderstood, thinking that Leo's shaking head meant that Inter Milan could not win.

"I also think Milan can win!"

Leo:? ? ?
  On Inter Milan's bench, Leo quickly covered Balotelli's foul mouth.

He will be eighteen years old in a few days, so he can't always use Tong Yanwuji as an excuse.

Leo knew that Bashen was actually a fan of AC Milan, but as he was now a player of Inter Milan, there were some things he should never say.

"As long as you are at Inter Milan, you can never say that you are a fan of Milan, let alone express your support for AC Milan. Do you understand?"

Leo spoke in a low voice and covered his mouth. No one noticed the two young men in the corner of the bench.

Balotelli blinked and nodded, and then Leo released his hand covering the other person's mouth.

He let out a long breath, almost causing a big problem.

"Okay, let's watch the game seriously."

Zanetti cut in from the right and a long shot from outside the penalty area missed the near post.

Soon after, Muntari's left-footed shot near the arc of the penalty area was blocked by Abbiati and blocked the left post.

Figo took a corner kick from the right, and Burdisso jumped high in front of the penalty spot and shook his head to score!
  The ball bounced straight to the lower left corner!

But the Rossoneri goalkeeper Abbiati once again made a magical save, holding the ball over the baseline with his fingertips!
  It seemed that AC Miranda's defense was not very reliable today, but Abbiati blocked all Inter Milan's attacks with high passes and low blocks.

Kaka cut in from the right and broke through the double-teams of Mancini and Maxwell, and his left-footed curved ball from the penalty area missed the far post.

Gattuso succeeded in pressing forward, and then his volley from the edge of the penalty area was confiscated by Toldo.

This game is indeed qualified as the finale, with both sides going back and forth with constant attacks.

Even though the offense was hot, neither team could score a goal after half an hour.

"Let's go, it's our turn to play again."

After a simple warm-up, Leo and Balotelli came off the bench.

Bashen was replaced by Adriano, while Leo came on to replace Cambiasso who had a strained thigh muscle.

Breaking through with the ball in the middle, Leo was tackled to the ground by Gattuso.

"Are you really sick? Do you know how to play football? If you can't play football, why don't you kick people?"

The Inter Milan youngster got up and got into trouble with Milan's "midfield butcher".

Balotelli wanted to come over to help, but he was a little timid when he saw the fierce Gattuso, so he hesitated and stood beside Leo.

Zanetti and Kaka each pulled their teammates away to avoid further development of the situation.

This level is not considered a conflict. There has never been any big scene in the Milan derby in the past.
