Football irons are burning

Chapter 193

The injured Materazzi was quickly replaced by Zanetti, and the team formation changed immediately, becoming 4-4-2.
AC Milan coach Zaccheroni didn't take any more risks. The score in this game was already high. He didn't need to overdraw Shevchenko. Besides, he was injured, so he should be replaced.

Shevchenko can also hold his head high. He is the only bright spot of AC Milan in this game.

But Shevchenko's end also means that AC Milan gave up the offense, and if they gave up the offense, they gave up the game.

The subsequent matches between the two sides became somewhat uneventful.

But in the 79th minute, Lucio stepped on Weah and got a red card, perfecting all the elements of the derby.

This guy is also a little impulsive, and he will definitely be scolded after it goes on.

In the end, Inter Milan defeated AC Milan 4:1 at home and won the derby.

In the post-match press conference, Mourinho, in addition to talking about the team's tactical rivals in high spirits, also praised Li Tie and canvassed votes for his disciples, believing that Li Tie must be the World Footballer of the Year.

Zaccheroni regretted that the team conceded the ball too early. He believed that conceding two goals in the opening stage was the main reason for the loss. He did not think that the strength gap between the two teams was so large, and he looked forward to revenge in the second round of the confrontation.

The next day, the media commented on the derby, and they all believed that AC Milan was finished this season, 9 points away from the top of the list, and the hope of defending the title was slim.

For Inter Milan, it is full of praise. Inter Milan's offensive firepower is too strong, which is the key to the media's optimism. Of course, Li Tie's outstanding performance is also highly praised, and he is considered to be a future international superstar.

Gazzetta dello Sport: Li Tie has a promising future. He has balanced offensive and defensive abilities, excellent physical fitness, and super running ability. He will definitely become a superstar in the future.

Turin Sports Daily: The stability of Inter Milan is the sorrow of the opponent. Now Juventus must get rid of the downturn as soon as possible, and don't be pulled too far away.

Corriere dello Sport: Li Tie led Inter Milan to win again. The Chinese played an obvious role. His goals after two wonderful breakthroughs will undoubtedly be the best candidate for the original goal.

Later in the day, several other games were played.

Lazio defeated Pepper Lecce 4:0 at home and continued to lead with Inter Milan.Lazio's offense is also very strong, and Veron's joining has given them strong creativity in the midfield.

The wizard's passing is superb, and he has a very good free kick and long-range shooting ability. Lazio is really worth the money spent.

尤文被巴里队1:1逼平，佛罗伦萨更是客场输给皮亚琴察，帕尔马同样2:2被弱旅雷吉纳逼平，罗马1：1平都灵。

A group of people seem to have negotiated, and sit and watch Inter Milan compete with Lazio for the championship.

Instead, Bologna defeated Verona 4:3, with 7 wins and 5 losses in 2 rounds, ranking third in the standings. Baggio's team has great potential to become a dark horse this season.

Baggio is undoubtedly the soul of Bologna. His performance in Inter Milan is actually nothing to praise, unstable and often injured.

This is a weak team, but it has become stronger and has played well every game.

So, this is a win-win result, and Baggio has nothing to lose. If he continues to stay at Inter Milan, his playing time will definitely not be guaranteed. If he plays for another season, he will be useless and go directly to retirement.

In this case, Baggio would have to thank Inter Milan.

The same is true for Ventola. After changing the team, he will be reborn immediately.

In 94, he landed in Serie A at the age of 16, but in Inter Milan, he may still not be able to compete with Ronaldo, Drogba, and Eto'o.

Now in Bologna, he has more opportunities to play, starting every game.

Therefore, Ventola's ability has improved rapidly, and with a master like Baggio playing for him, it is really difficult not to score goals.

Many media once again believe that Inter Milan is very harmful to the stars, and they will immediately shine and rejuvenate in another place, but in Inter Milan, there is no hope.

These media are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and they hope that Inter Milan will mess up because of this.

In fact, the players themselves have no responsibility?If every player can be as dedicated as Li Tie, insist on exercising every day, and be full of desire for victory after playing, no matter how bad the team is, it is impossible to ruin the players.

Of course, it's useless, the media's instigation is not very useful.

The current Inter Milan has a very neat lineup and an unprecedented unity. Although there are constant injuries, there is still no problem in the two-line battle, and they are making great strides forward.

On Wednesday, the fourth game of the Champions League group stage begins.

Inter Milan vs. Lokomotiv Moscow.

In the pre-match press conference, Mourinho said that the team will score three points and strive to qualify early.

Li Tie also said that although the opponent's strength is not weak, they are still a level behind Inter Milan. They should try their best to compete for a UEFA Cup seat.

Sure enough, back at home, Inter Milan beat their opponents badly.

Only 6 minutes into the game, Drogba received a header from Li Tie and scored with a header, rewriting the score to 1:0!

Since then, every 10 minutes or so, Inter Milan scored a goal, directly sifting the opponent into a sieve.

Li Tie still played the whole game in the midfielder position. He scored twice and assisted twice, once again becoming the team's number one hero.

Now, Li Tie also likes this feeling, he is eager to get closer to the goal.

Under strong offensive pressure, the opponent is really vulnerable.

"Yes, Li Tie enjoys playing as an attacking midfielder now. He and his teammates have a very tacit understanding. He is a player who knows whether to pass or shoot. When you can coach such a star, everything will become very simple."

At the press conference after the game, Mourinho praised Li Tie.

Li Tie said: "The forward midfielder and the defensive midfielder are different positions. I am doing well so far. My teammates have given us strong support in the backcourt. This is the key to our ability to win."

In another game, Kaiserslautern beat Chelsea by 1 goal away.

As a result, with two games left in the Champions League, Inter Milan has already led Chelsea by as much as 7 points, qualifying from the group two rounds ahead of schedule.

This can be regarded as entering the top 16 without bloodshed.

Kaiserslautern ranks second with 7 points, and they have a very high chance of qualifying. They will return to home against Lokomotiv Moscow in the next game. There is still a gap in strength between the two sides. If they win, they will qualify one round earlier.

In fact, Kaiserslautern's lineup is not weak. As the newly joined players Milito, Cruz and others gradually entered the state, Kaiserslautern also adapted. Now they are fighting on the third line, and they are no worse than their opponents.

Li Tie is still very concerned about his old club. After the game, he also called his former coaches and teammates to congratulate them on their victory.

However, Magath was a little indifferent to Li Tie, and hung up after saying a few words.

It seems that Magath still has a grudge against Li Tie's status in Kaiserslautern. He is currently trying to fully control the team and become the only one in the hearts of the fans.

The other two teams in Group A may only compete for the UEFA Cup.

Chelsea and Lokomotiv Moscow will fight each other in the next two games, and whoever wins will be the third.

But at this time, a transfer order was sent to Milan.

The Olympic team recruited Li Tie to join the team to participate in the quarter-final match against South Korea at home on October 10.

This is a decision made by the Football Association in order to ensure the home win.

Inter Milan's top management originally disagreed. This kind of Olympic qualifier is not an international A-level competition. Inter Milan has the right to disagree.

However, in order to avoid distracting the players, Facchetti talked to Li Tie in person.

After all, October 10 is the match between Inter Milan and Lazio, which is also very critical.

Li Tie returned to China to participate in the Olympic qualifiers, how could he come back in time?
"Li Tie, it depends on your attitude. If you don't want to go back, we will push you away. I don't think the cadres in your country will say anything about you."

Facchetti said.

Li Tie was taken aback for a moment, he had forgotten about this matter, he was indeed an age-appropriate player for the Sydney Olympics.

After hearing Facchetti's words, Li Tie thought to himself that you might not know much about China's affairs. If you don't go back to this matter, you might really be blacklisted by the cadres.

What's more, Li Tie's mind is still inclined to go back. His purpose of playing football is to influence more Chinese players, so as to drive a large number of players to make Chinese football rank among the world's powerhouses.

As for Inter Milan, it should be no problem to miss a game. Unlike the top nine games in Serie A, there are still many games. Even if they lose this one, there will be a chance to come back later.

But there are only four games in the top nine competitions. Once they lose the game against South Korea, it will be completely over and they will miss the Sydney Olympics.

Therefore, Li Tie still said: "Giacento, I'm sorry, I want to go back to participate in this crucial game. Once we win against South Korea, we will be in the absolute lead in the group. I don't need to participate in other games. I'm sorry for the weekend league. I hope Jose and his teammates can forgive my behavior."

Facchetti shook his head with some regret. The weekend league is very important to Inter Milan. If they can beat Lazio, they will be able to lead the standings alone.

But without Li Tie, it is really hard to say whether the team can win.

After all, Inter Milan tied for the two games that Li Tie missed this season.

"Okay then, go back and try your best not to get hurt, take a good rest and don't get too tired." Facchetti had no choice but to say.

"Thank you, Giacinto, I hope this is the last time and it won't happen again."

Li Tie said gratefully.

Li Tie hurriedly bought a plane ticket. Fortunately, he arrived in Shanghai on the evening of the 28th.

After reuniting with the team, Li Tie discovered that many overseas players had returned.

Li Jinyu, Li Datou, Octopus, Shao Jiayi, Zheng Zhi, Chen Tao, Qu Bo, and Sun Jihai are all back.

It seems that the Football Association is planning to complete all its efforts in one battle, and get the right to qualify for the group in one battle.

After all, this group is a battle between China and South Korea. If they win the South Korean team at home, they will basically be able to qualify.

The two sides drew in the first round, and then both defeated the Bahrain team. Whoever wins will qualify from the group.
