My uncle is Inzaghi.

Chapter 92 Make a fortune silently

"Let Barcelona avenge you! Real Madrid!"

The day after the lottery results came out.

The headline of Barcelona's mouthpiece newspaper "World Deportivo" was very arrogant.

Naturally, they did not forget to disgust Real Madrid.

In fact, Barcelona has encountered a lot of situations this season. Their head coach Vilanova was absent for more than two months due to cancer surgery.

For more than two months, Barcelona has been playing without a head coach - of course, their game directing is carried out by assistant coaches.

However, Vilanova has returned from surgery, and at least at the beginning of the Champions League quarter-finals, he will definitely be able to command from the sidelines.

Barcelona is making rapid progress in the league this season, and no team is their opponent.

Therefore, Barcelona can naturally look forward to the Champions League.

The reason why "World Sports News" is certain that Barcelona can beat Arsenal is due to its strong confidence in Barcelona's strength and Barcelona's absolute advantage over Arsenal's record.

According to Catalan media.

If Arsenal were drawn against Barcelona, ​​they would be sentenced to death in advance.

In fact, the media throughout Europe are not very optimistic about Arsenal.

After all, Barcelona is too strong now.

Arsenal beat Real Madrid, but in the eyes of some football experts.

Real Madrid lost at their own hands.

Although Arsenal performed well on the offensive end this season, overall, their strength is indeed not strong.

in England.

Many media believe that it will be difficult for Arsenal to pass Barcelona.

"Arsenal's luck in the Champions League this season was very bad. They were drawn to Real Madrid in the round of 16 and Barcelona in the quarter-finals. Maybe they should pray to God for a little better luck. Arsenal wants to eliminate Barcelona. It's very difficult, of course. They can look forward to another result, that is, Li Mo breaks Messi's Champions League single-season scoring record!"

"Li Mo only needs to score one more goal to tie the record set by Messi last season. He only needs to score two goals to break the record! Of course, if they can advance, he will continue to create A chance to record, but it’s obviously difficult.”

Over in Catalonia.

The Catalan media believes that Barcelona's elimination of Arsenal is not a problem.

But it is quite dangerous for Li Mo to tie or even break Messi's record.

"In addition to eliminating their opponents, Barcelona players must also be careful not to let Arsenal center Li Mo score a goal!"

".We must defend Leo's record!"

Catalan media are calling.

Barcelona fans care about this too.

They also called on Barcelona players on social networking sites to "don't let Li Mo score!"

While being interviewed.

Barcelona's players are inevitably asked about their Champions League opponents and records.

"Arsenal is a great opponent and we will take it seriously."

Messi said to the camera.

These are all clichés.

The media were not surprised to hear these words from Messi.

So they asked players who could say something interesting to the media.

For example, Pique.

"Of course there will be no problem in knocking out Arsenal. Our goal this season is to win the championship!"

"You're talking about Leo's record? Of course, of course, we won't let him score. He can score six goals for Real Madrid, but that doesn't mean he can score our goal!"

"We will continue to move forward and defend Leo's record at the same time!" Iniesta said this on the microphone facing the media.

Next, many Barcelona players were interviewed.

Sanchez, Pedro, Xavi, Busquets, Mascherano, Alves and others have come forward to express their opinions. While expressing the team's strong confidence, they also gave Barcelona fans reassurance: We know that the fans are very worried. We care about Leo's record, so we won't let Li Mo score.

These words were spoken with arrogance.

But no one accuses Barcelona's players of being arrogant.

Because they have this qualification.

They are the most successful team in the past five years and the first team to win six championships in a single season.

But the strange thing is.

There's a buzz here in Barcelona.

Everyone appears in the media one after another.

But what about Arsenal?

Quiet.

Very quiet.

In fact, when I first saw media reports from Catalonia.

The Arsenal players were very unhappy.

Let’s not talk about the result of the game.

Li Mo has now scored 13 goals in a single season. It should not be surprising to tie Messi's record of 14, or even surpass his record.

After all, the difference is only one.

But look at the coverage in the Catalan media.

It seems like there is a difference of a hundred.

Everyone was filled with indignation.

It’s time to talk back in the media and have a good war of words with your opponents.

The person involved, Li Mo, persuaded everyone to stop.

"Brothers, there is a saying in my hometown that you can make a fortune by being silent."

Li Mo chuckled.

"We didn't say anything, we just fell to the roar."

"Then wouldn't they think we are afraid of them?"

Wilshere said unhappily.

"Hey, this is the effect we want!"

Li Mo snapped his fingers.

"Think about it, if we don't say anything, will they think we are afraid of them? Will they think we are careless by giving up the Champions League? We will be defeated if we underestimate the enemy! By then we will be at Camp Nou Suddenly he showed his fangs and bit them."

Li Mo's words made the Arsenal players' eyes light up.

"Brothers! I will give our operation a codename, and call it "Silent Storm"! The most terrifying storm is brewing in silence!"

"Kill Barcelona! Enter the semi-finals!"

"Fuck Barcelona!"

Everyone shouted.

The Champions League quarter-finals will not start in about twenty days.

So after the draw, the media focus quickly shifted.

Arsenal, who returned to the league, will soon face a game in the 29th round of the league.

The team faces Swansea at home.

Although Li Mo played the entire game in this game, he did not score a goal.

However, Arsenal still relied on long-range shots from Podolski and Arteta to win 2-0.

In the standings, Arsenal ranks second with 3 league points, points behind Manchester United.

Manchester City, on the other hand, is starting to fall off their game.

After 62 league rounds, Manchester City has only scored 7 league points, points behind Arsenal.

Ranked fourth is Chelsea, who scored 55 points. Benitez's team has been in poor condition since their upset exit in the League Cup semi-finals.

Fortunately, Chelsea still has a chance to advance in the Europa League. They have reached the quarterfinals of the Europa League.

However, Chelsea's fourth-place position is not secure.

Because closely followed by Tottenham, which scored 54 points.

Ranked sixth is Everton, who only scored 48 league points.

The league is about to enter its final stage.

The situation in the standings is gradually becoming clearer.

Only Arsenal and Manchester United are left in the championship group.

Manchester City's third position is secure. The battle for the last Champions League qualification spot is focused on Chelsea and Tottenham.

After the twenty-ninth round of the league.

Li Mo is about to go to the Italian national team to report.

Next is another 10-day FIFA international match day.

Li Mo's first match with the Italian national team was against the uncrowned Dutch team.

And his second match opponent in the national team.

That is the real king, five-star Brazil.

The game was played at the San Siro Stadium in Milan.

This is the 50th match played by the Italian national team at the San Siro Stadium in Milan.

The home stadium of the Italian national team is the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.

However, like most national teams, the national team will not stick to one or two stadiums. If domestic conditions permit, some domestic stadiums will also be frequently used.

not to mention.

The Italian national team's record at San Siro is quite good.

49 games before.

The Italian national team's record here is 34 wins, 14 draws and 1 loss.

This game was also Li Mo's first appearance at the San Siro Stadium.

Prior to this, although Li Mo had played in several warm-up matches on behalf of Milan, he had also come to San Siro to participate in games.

But those few times he was on the bench and never got a minute of game time.

But this time.

As a starter, he walked from the tunnel all the way to the center of the court.

See the young man wearing the blue shirt of Italy No. 19.

In the stands at San Siro.

Many AC Milan fans have complicated expressions.

The person I regret most now is probably Galliani sitting in the box.

One hundred million, one hundred million.

Ah, no.

Now that the offer is 200 million, there may be wealthy people who are willing to pay - such as Paris Saint-Germain.

Two hundred million, two hundred million, I can't spend it all in a lifetime.

When Galliani thought of this, he felt that firing Allegri was the most correct decision he had ever made in his life.

but

Speaking of which, he was actually more inclined to sell Li Mo.

But how could Galliani blame himself?

"Next is the 19th, Li Mo!!"

With the live DJ chanting.

Li Mo enjoyed the warmest cheers at San Siro.

Most of the Milanese watching the game in this stadium still regard him as one of their own - he is a child of Vismara, a teenager who grew up in Milan.

In the stands.

Li Mo's family members also stood up, waved to him and cheered.

The camera focused on Li Mo. As the most popular rising star in the world during this period, he was undoubtedly the person receiving the most attention in this game.

In fact, there is another "supernova" in this game.

That is the "New Pele" Neymar on the Brazilian team.

As a player who is already well-known before landing in the four major European leagues, and even as the only player outside the European leagues to be selected for the 23-person Ballon d'Or list, Neymar became famous much earlier than Li Mo.

And his statistics in the Brazilian League are indeed quite luxurious.

Last season, he represented Santos in 17 appearances in the Brazilian League, scoring 14 goals and 7 assists. He played 16 times in the Brazilian Sao Paulo Championship and scored 20 goals. He scored 34 goals on behalf of the club in the year.

With his gorgeous playing style and proficient dribbling skills, in Brazil, he is the serious "successor" named by Pele himself.

Neymar is now the next Brazilian superstar that the major European giants are eyeing.

However, after Li Mo came out, Neymar's limelight was completely overshadowed.

After all, Li Moko actually scored 21 goals in the Premier League and 13 goals in the Champions League.

This is an achievement achieved on a field that is far more intense and of a much higher level than the Brazilian league and cup competitions.

If he hadn't started to emerge after September last year, he would already be the European Golden Boy - the 9 European Golden Boy was awarded to Borussia Dortmund player Mario Gotze.

At the beginning of the game.

Neymar was very active, showing off his offensive talents and dribbling skills in the frontcourt.

However, facing Italy's defense line, Neymar played a lot on the wing, but in the end he still couldn't find any space.

instead.

It was Italy's counterattack that struck first.

"Pirlo made a long pass to Verratti and received the ball. Verratti took the ball forward and distributed the ball. Balotelli! Balotelli entered the penalty area! Facing the goalkeeper! Cross. Central! Here it comes!!"

Accompanied by a long-drawn roar from the commentator.

Li Mo's ball arrives and everyone arrives.

Sweeping the ball into the goal.

Brazil goalkeeper Cesar could only look helplessly at the beating football behind his goal - even though he had watched this scene countless times in this stadium.

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!"

The Italian DJ at the scene shouted.

"Sixteenth minute of the first half! The Italian team takes the lead! Li Mo! It's still Li Mo! He scores again!!"

"Verratti, Balotelli, Li Mo! Is this Italy's new answer to the frontcourt?"

"Who still misses Cassano?!"

The commentator was also chanting.

In this national team, Cassano was once again shut out because he refused to apologize to Prandelli.

He said in an interview with the media: "Without me, the national team will have to rely on a child and a fool to score goals?"

The child refers to Li Mo.

fool

Balotelli doesn't think it was him.

But this time the counterattack was really beautiful.

Verratti is responsible for passing the ball, while Balotelli and Li Mo are responsible for running and scoring.

The cooperation of the three complements each other perfectly.

And

All three are young.

This gave the Italian national team, which looked very old, a cool breeze of youthful storm.

Italy, playing at home, relied on the cooperation of the youthful trident in the frontcourt to score the goal.

Before the end of the first half, although the Brazilian team got one back with Hulk's explosive shot.

But in the second half, Italy's counterattack at home completely overwhelmed the Brazilian team's defense.

In the 53rd minute of the game, Li Mo returned the favor after receiving Pirlo's long pass, passing the ball across to Balotelli, allowing him to score an empty goal.

In the 76th minute of the game, Li Mo received a through ball from Verratti and went to the meeting with a single shot.

In the 83rd minute of the game, Verratti also scored. Li Mo's reverse triangle in the penalty area gave him a comfortable push opportunity.

This way.

The young trio in the frontcourt all scored in this game.

Italy beat Brazil 4-1 at Milan's San Siro Stadium.

And then the second game.

Li Mo almost dominated the game.

In the European World Cup qualifying match, Italy still faced its opponent San Marino at the San Siro Stadium in Milan.

Li Mo completed a hat trick in the first half, helping the team lead 3-0. In the second half, Italy blossomed more.

In the end, the team swept the underdog 7-0 at home and won two consecutive games on the national team match day.

Li Mo helped the team score five goals in two games.

This caused the Italian media to start mocking Cassano: Who needs Cassano anymore?
