The Prince of Inter Milan starts with Brother Xiaosa

Chapter 95 Defeat Samp
  "Boss, I found another bar. It is said that the atmosphere is very good! Let's go have a drink together in the evening?"

Thornton was very happy to celebrate after starting the whole game again and following the team to victory.

Leo and Balotelli both looked at David Thornton with strange expressions.

Of course Thornton knew what they meant and waved his hands repeatedly.

"Oh, it won't be like last time! You believe me!"

Leo turned to look at Balotelli,

"Mario, do you believe him?"

Bashen recalled the cannibalistic looks of those AC Milan fans and shuddered in fear.

"It's still not necessary."

Looking at his little brother who looked aggrieved, Leo patted Thornton on the shoulder.

"David, you should focus more on the competition.

When the head coach gives you a chance, you should seize it. Don't lose your position as the main left back again! "

Seeing that Thornton listened, Leo nodded.

"Come on, let's go sing, please!"

"Okay! Laura has a new album out, have you listened to it?"

"Laura Pusini? You are so earthy. I recently met a rapper who just debuted in Milan named Federico, who has a great personality!"

"What kind of rapper? Low is so popular! Laura is the Italian queen. Do you understand music?!"

The corners of Leo's mouth raised. Although the two brats in front of him were fighting noisily, he liked this feeling very much.

At this time, Bashen and Thornton had just become famous, and they were relatively carefree and did not have as many troubles as they did later.

If only it could continue like this...

On January 1, Inter Milan faced Sampdoria in the twentieth round of Serie A.

Back in August last year, Mourinho's team was tied by their opponents in the first round of the league against Sampdoria.

This was the second meeting of the season and the Nerazzurri returned home and decided to give the visiting team a good look.

However, due to Ibrahimovic's accumulation of yellow cards and suspension, the Madmen have difficulties in choosing a forward.

Mourinho used Balotelli and Mancini to form a forward line. On the defense line, Thornton, a young player who performed well in the midweek cup game, is still trusted to continue to start.

Sampdoria only scored one point in the previous three league rounds, and the last time they defeated Inter Milan at home was back in March 1999, when Samp won 3- at home.

Cassano suffered a neck injury and missed the game. Lucchini, Campagnaro, Accardi and Fornaroli were also unable to play. Captain Palombo had to play as a defender in this game.

In the first three minutes, Maicon made a breakthrough pass from the right, and Stankovic headed the ball to Leo.

Leo passed the ball before it was destroyed by the opponent.

Mancini's shot from outside the penalty area missed.

A few minutes later, Cambiaso took a corner kick from the right, and Maicon's header was blocked from the baseline.

Then Sampdoria counterattacked and Raggi broke through with the ball from the right. Chivu was forced to commit a tactical foul and was given a yellow card by the referee.

"Their lineup is not neat and there are loopholes in the wing defense. You can definitely try to add assists."

After ten minutes of play, Leo basically understood his opponent's situation.

He told Thornton a few words.

An opportunity soon appeared. Leo sent a long diagonal pass to the wing, and Thornton made a right-footed pass from the left!
  Balotelli's header in front of the small penalty area was slightly higher than the crossbar.

"Mario, Ibra is not here today, so I can only rely on you to score goals."

Balotelli was shocked when he heard this, and a sense of mission suddenly arose... That was impossible.

The truth is that Ba Shen smiled stupidly, and he didn't know if he understood what Leo said.

Sampdoria was at a disadvantage. Under the instructions of head coach Mazzarri, the players on the field began to fight fiercely.

I have to say that the effect was very good, Inter Milan's offensive was contained by the opponent.

Stankovic was fighting with Samarco in the frontcourt, and his head was hit by the opponent's elbow and blood immediately flowed out!
  Sammarco only received a yellow card.

Then Pazzini did not retreat far enough when lining up the wall, and was also given a yellow card by the referee.

The home team wants to use these small means to deal with Inter Milan. Fortunately, today's referee Domenicocelli was not lenient at all.

Balotelli's powerful free kick from the left sailed directly over the crossbar.

At this time, Stankovic, who was bandaged on the sidelines, returned to the court with his head wrapped in a bandage.

Samp's player Stankovicius made too many defensive moves and received a Topaz God of War card.

Cambiasso, who was knocked down by him, fell to the ground in pain. Mourinho urgently asked Muntari to go to the sidelines to warm up.

Fortunately, the Inter Milan midfielder was not seriously injured and continued to stay on the field.

In short, Samp saved the situation with dirty play and found some opportunities. Desena passed the ball from the middle. Stankovicius broke into the penalty area and fell to the ground after contact with the defensive player. Referee Celi made no comment.

Then Delvecchio made a pass from the right, Pazzini headed the ball over, and Desena's right-footed shot went over before the penalty spot.

Stankovicius cut inside to break through Samuel's defense, and his powerful volley from the front of the penalty area missed the baseline.

In the 29th minute, Zanetti passed the ball. Leo received the ball and turned around to get rid of Sammarco's mark and penetrate to the outside of the penalty area.

Immediately afterwards, Leo deflected Gastardello's pressure and passed diagonally into the penalty area. Balotelli shook off Sampdoria captain Palombo's defense and followed up with a blast shot!
  One to zero!
  Inter Milan broke the deadlock on the field!
  After scoring the first goal, the Nerazzurri once again took control of the initiative on the field.

Thornton broke through from the left to the inverted triangle near the baseline and passed back to the middle.

Stankovic's powerful long-range shot from the top of the penalty area was saved by the visiting team's goalkeeper Castellachi!

Maicon took a corner kick from the right, and Samuel's bounce ball in front of the goal was caught by Castellaci.

In the 40th minute, Stankovic also received a yellow card after a fight with Franceschini.

Inter Milan Mourinho jumped up on the coaching bench to express his dissatisfaction with the penalty.

As a result, the referee Cherry directly took out a red card and sent the madman to the stands.

Mourinho couldn't believe it. He applauded Celli and turned away.

This episode was obviously detrimental to Inter Milan. The head coach was sent off before the first half of the game was over.

A one-goal lead is no guarantee.

“Everyone, calm down, don’t get too excited, and stabilize the situation first.

We can wait until the first half of the game is over before we go back to the locker room to talk about anything else! "

Experienced captain Zanetti stood up in time to comfort his teammates, and Inter Milan quickly settled down.

Franceschini fouled Maicon and also received a yellow card.

Since the beginning of the game, the referee Celli has shown as many as six yellow cards. In addition to Mourinho's red card, it can be said that he is too weak to take out the cards.

On the one hand, it reflects the intensity of the game, on the other hand, it also shows that Sampdoria played really dirty.

Leo passed the ball directly to the left side of the penalty area. Balotelli was pulled by the defensive player and failed to hit the goal immediately.

Then Bashen volleyed with his left foot from a very small angle and hit the side net. The fans began to boo the Samp players and the referee.

The first half entered stoppage time. Maicon kicked back from the right side to avoid Pieri's upward curve ball and passed it into the penalty area.

Leo responded well and hit a volley with his left foot into the near corner of the goal!
  Two to zero!
  Although Mourinho was sent off and can no longer appear on the sidelines, he can still continue to direct the team.

The Madman very conservatively ordered the team to be on the defensive in the second half, preferably to maintain the score advantage until the end of the game.

Shortly after the start of the second half, Sampdoria was forced to make a substitution, and Padalino replaced Gastardello, who had a strained thigh muscle.

In the 51st minute, another defender Raj also suffered a groin strain, and Mazzarri had to replace Ziegler.

Even if the Nerazzurri lost Ibrahimovic on the front line, and even if the visiting team stopped the opponent's offensive through frequent fouls, they still managed to defend very reluctantly.

In just 40 to 50 minutes, two defensive players were injured and left the field.

In addition, many players were carrying yellow cards, so in the second half of the game, Samp seemed a bit exhausted when facing Inter Milan's attack.

If the head coach hadn't asked the team to defend fully in the second half during the halftime break, Inter Milan might have expanded its lead again by this time.

Mancini broke through to the right side of the penalty area and passed the ball low. Stankovic volleyed a right foot from the penalty area line and was caught by Samp goalkeeper Castellaci.

Cambiaso intercepted the ball from the left side of the frontcourt and passed it low. Thornton cut inside and hit the crossbar with his right foot!
  The young man who missed his first goal in Serie A was slightly frustrated and turned back to his position.

Leo noticed David Thornton and touched his chin.

In the 64th minute, Pazzini received Desena's direct pass and broke into the left side of the penalty area!

Inter Milan center back Cordoba made a decisive tackle at the last moment to clear the ball!
  When Cesar made a save, his left ankle was stepped on by the sole of Pazzini's shoe. The Inter Milan goalkeeper looked very painful holding his ankle.

Toldo hurried to the sidelines to warm up and prepare to come on as a substitute. Fortunately, after examination by the team doctor, Cesar's injury was not serious and he could continue.

Sampdoria coach Mazzarri then made the final substitution, with Bellucci replacing Franceschini.

Padalino made a pass from the right, and Bellucci, who had just come on as a substitute, headed the ball slightly wide of the right post in front of the small penalty area.

The game was coming to an end, and it was really difficult for Sampdoria to equalize after falling behind by two goals.

The home team is not just standing around watching their opponents attack.

In the 86th minute, Leo passed three people in the middle and broke through to the front of the penalty area. He dunked to the right and swung away from the angle, flying up and hitting the goal with a heavy kick!
  Sampdoria goalkeeper Castellachi flew to save the ball!

But it was still half a beat too late, and Leo's shot hit the upper right corner of the goal!

Three to zero!
  Inter Milan completely sealed the victory!
  The Nerazzurri made substitutions, and Figo came off the bench to replace Leo, the hero of the goal.

At the end of the game, Leo once again enjoyed the applause from the audience.

In the 94th minute, Desena's powerful long-range shot from outside the penalty area was blocked by Cesar and was blocked by Cesar. Inter Milan finally defeated Sampdoria 3-0 at home!
  At the critical juncture when Inter Milan's offense was weak due to Ibrahimovic's suspension, Leo stepped forward!
  Leo scored twice and received an assist in this game and was elected as the best player of the game.

Not only that, he has also scored or assisted in eight consecutive league rounds, and he is in a hot state!
