Hero of the Penalty Area

Chapter 37 The Focus Battle (The first guarantee)

"...Hero: Records are used to break!"

Mourinho put the newspaper down, his face showed his unique elusive smile. When he smiled crookedly, you don't know if he is happy, ridiculing, or despising. you.

He got up and walked to the office door, a new day of training was waiting for him.

On the side of the training court, he was surrounded by the media. During the fifteen minutes of public training, these reporters have the freedom to interview.

"José, what do you think of Chen Yingxiong's words?"

"Do you have the confidence to defend your unbeaten record at home?"

The reporters raised their microphones and reached out to him while shouting in their mouths.

Mourinho stood in front of the reporters.

"What he said is very reasonable. The only meaning of any record is to be broken." The Portuguese's first sentence has made many reporters have a tendency to fall below their spectacles. "But he is not the one who broke the record."

This second sentence made many reporters secretly relieved-this is the style of Jose Mourinho!

As Mourinho stayed in Italy for a year, everyone gradually got used to his style of acting. Although he still annoyed many people, especially the coaches in the circle, the reporters liked it very much. Because of such a person, they are not short of news hype.

The arrival of Chen Yingxiong also brought them the same feeling-the first day after the arrival, it attracted the attention of all Italy and caused the riots in the whole city of Naples. There has never been such a big movement when a player joined. When Maradona came to Naples, the Sao Paulo Stadium squeezed into 80,000 fans, and more than 80,000 people still paid for tickets to enter the stadium-the tickets sold by the Naples club to welcome Maradona, each of three thousand Lira has long been sold out, and many people buy tickets from the scalper at ten times the price. These people just came to see the legendary Maradona.

Maradona's way of reaching the stadium by helicopter is also unique, and there is no other effect.

But Maradona did not cause riots throughout Naples, letting fans and police attack each other, overturned police cars, and threw stones, right?

Therefore, this tossing out a player who is more dynamic than Maradona is naturally extremely popular with the media.

The last time these two people collided, the reporters would climax.

This time, they did not disappoint the reporters who were waiting for a good show.

You come and I go, **** for tat, no one accepts anyone, there is a stance of life and death.

But readers like to read such stories.

"I don't think Naples can be compared with Inter Milan... This is not what I said to deliberately provoke them, I am telling the truth." Inter Milan's coach shrugged, "In terms of strength, they are completely absent from us. A grade. This is our home court. We are not afraid of anyone or any team here."

Mourinho's attitude was very tough, and he didn't mean to back down at all.

※※※

"Mourinho was tough in the interview. He seems to absolutely not want his unbeaten home record to be broken by Chen Yingxiong... That is to say, this Inter Milan will also send the main force..."

"...In terms of strength, Inter Milan is certainly better than Naples. From the current state of the two sides, Naples does not have the advantage. Inter Milan has won five rounds in a row, and it is the most worthy of a special book. One thing is that they beat ac Milan 4-0 in the Milan Derby in the second round of the league! With the momentum of this big victory, Inter Milan jumped to the first place in the domestic league. This time it is. At their home court, Inter Milan is playing against Naples. I think Naples is not dominant..."

"Last season, Naples defeated Inter Milan at their home court, which created a little trouble for Mourinho's team before reaching the throne. Although it did not prevent Inter Milan from winning the championship early, it made Mourinho's heart. Blocking a stone, I believe he must be very upset..."

"We have to give you a recap of the second round of the two teams last season... The scene where Chen Yingxiong rushed to Mourinho after scoring a goal and set off his jersey to celebrate, it can be called last season's league. One of the classic shots. It’s this shot..." The TV screen showed Chen Yingxiong’s celebration after the goal. In the chaotic scene, only he and Mourinho maintained their original postures, silent. Demonstrated to the other side.

This scene is indeed quite classic, and it has been repeatedly shown on many Italian TV stations.

"...We don’t need to say more about the hatred of these two teams. We have also seen the verbal battle between the two teams last season... Just say that the grievances between Mourinho and Chen Yingxiong have been Enough for us to write a full page, so this game is very important for both people..."

"In short, this will be the focus of this round of league battles!"

The game has not yet started, and the Italian media have joined forces to stir up the game.

※※※

Chen Yingxiong did not continue to respond to Mourinho's tough attitude, and his own attitude was also very determined. But it is very weak to say this thing in words, and it must be proved by the iron-like facts!

So he suffocated his energy until the game, and went to ask Mourinho for some advice.

This time he didn't prepare any t-shirts full of words. He no longer needs to prove who he is to Mourinho, and Mourinho is also very smart this time and doesn't say anything like "Who is the hero of Chen".

The two sides have long since retained their names, and they are no longer nameless ghosts.

Like the last time the two sides played against each other, after Chen Yingxiong scored the goal, he ran to Mourinho to demonstrate who he was. It is estimated that this game will not happen again.

After experiencing some struggle, Mazzari finally decided to put on the strongest lineup for Inter Milan. On the one hand, there are still six days before the UEFA Champions League group stage, and the rotation is not justified at this time. Another aspect is that this game has been hyped up by the media. The whole of Italy is discussing the confrontation between the two teams. Even if the strength is not as good as the other side, they can't admit defeat in advance. Otherwise, how can he, the head coach, maintain his prestige in front of the players?

You know, in the locker room at Anfield, he said impassionedly to his team of players: "To revive the banner of Naples, tell them that none of us is afraid of it."

If facing Inter Milan, he would be timid before the fight and put on a group of substitutes. Isn't this slapping himself in the face?

In doing so, how can I inspire the players in the future?

The players in Naples are a bit wild. This group of players is very easy to manage, but also very difficult to manage. The good thing is that as long as they recognize you, they will listen to you. It’s not easy to say that if you make them dissatisfied, this group of thorns don’t know what tricks they will make...

As long as you get the right temper, you can bring this team out of a strong enough combat power.

Their tempers are like the city of Naples and the people in this city-they will never bow to the power and confront the powerful and wealthy capitalists in the north to the end. The stronger the opponent, the more motivated they will be. On the contrary, if the opponent is too weak, they will lose interest...

This is also one of the reasons for the ups and downs of this team's performance.

Therefore, Mazzari is worried that if he takes the initiative to show weakness in Meazza, it will not only affect the team's performance in the league, but also affect the team's morale and lead to the collapse of the Champions League. He didn't dare to take this risk. It was a greater loss than the injury of the player. The player was injured and there were substitutes. He could also adjust the tactics to make up for it. But the spirit and spirit of a team are gone. It's a piece of loose sand...

This situation is too common in football.

For example, Udinese is not weak, and the team is well managed, but why is the performance always short of it, and no one thinks that they will be the kind of team that has the ability to threaten the giants?

Just because this team is too "utilitarian" and "short-sighted", buying young players at low prices and selling them at high prices are their characteristics, everyone knows. As long as the team gets better and enters the European War, what the team thinks is definitely not to buy powerful players and make a glorious experience in the European War, but... while those players can still sell. , Sell the team's heroes who can enter the European war to make money! Then go around to search for young players with potential but not much reputation, dig them for a few years at a low price, and wait for the next opportunity to go to the European war and continue to sell...

It's no wonder that such a team is always the life of the mid-range team. It clearly has the conditions, but it can't get up.

Mazzari doesn't want Napoli to become that kind of team.

His boss Aurelio de Laurentis is ambitious, so why not? He hopes to let Naples regain its glory, and he hopes to become a figure in history.

Therefore, it is very important to reconsolidate the spirit of Naples.

The battle spirit of an army is tempered in blood and fire through hard battles. The same is true for the team. If a team can only bully and bully a team that is weaker than itself, or whose strength is similar to that of its own, and surrenders actively when facing a strong team, it is vulnerable and has no fighting spirit, it has no future at all. Yes.

This season, Mazzari does not know what the team's final results will be, but it is indeed a very important season. Because this is the first time he has completely led Naples for the season, he wants to instill his ideas into this team.

Dare to head-on with a strong team is one of the necessary qualities.

To this end, Mazzari gritted his teeth and lined up the strongest lineup, going to Meazza and Inter Milan!
