This teenager is a bit aggressive

Chapter 303 Tragic Inter Milan

In the early morning of the next day, the Manchester United team appeared again at the Meazza Stadium, which Ferguson still used to call the San Rossi Stadium.

Ferguson still has a full day of training time. At [-] o'clock in the evening, the first round of the Champions League quarter-finals between the two teams will start.

In the training time in the morning, Ferguson still arranged for the players to practice freely. Before each big game, Ferguson was always very calm. If he was replaced by another coach, he might be racing against time to engage in technical and tactical training.

In fact, Ferguson just didn't want to waste Manchester United's physical energy. The game tonight will be a fierce battle, and the players must have a full mental state.

At the same time, Mourinho also led the Inter Milan team to start training at the Pinettina training base.

This is a game that the Italian media pays special attention to. The results of the Serie A teams in the Champions League in recent years have not been good.

The UEFA Champions League presents a situation where La Liga and the Premier League are competing. After Mourinho joined Inter Milan, people expect this madman to lead Inter Milan to the top of Europe.

Speaking of Inter Milan, this is a very sad team, why do you say that?
The lineup of Inter Milan is no less than that of AC Milan. It can be said that it is a star team built very early in European football. The alien Ronaldo also played for Inter Milan.

However, since 1989, Inter Milan has won an Italian league championship and other honors in 20 years.

This kind of honor is incompatible with this powerful Inter Milan team, but AC Milan in the same city has already created the great cause of the Triple Crown.

Inter Milan's lineup is very strong every year, and its strength is also very strong. However, it always misses the championship. In 06, Inter Milan was involved in the Calciopoli incident. This was originally a match-fixing incident by Juventus. It happened to involve Inter Milan.

Wait, many factors have made Inter Milan a tragic team. For ten years, Inter Milan has been pursuing the dream of a championship.

Before the 80s, Inter Milan could be regarded as a giant team in Serie A, with 13 league titles, 3 Italian Cup titles, 1 Super Cup title, 2 European Champions Cup titles, 3 UEFA Cup titles, 2 Toyota Cup Champion.

It can be said that the honor is full, however, after entering the 90s, Inter Milan is hard to get a championship.

This year, Mourinho has a great responsibility on his shoulders. He shoulders the mission of revitalizing Inter Milan. Therefore, in this home game against Manchester United, Mourinho must win the game, because he knows that he wants to play in Old Trafford. How difficult it is to win a game at Ford Stadium.

The best ending is that Inter Milan can take a big lead at home to visit Old Trafford.

However, this is easier said than done. Ferguson, an old slicker, is a frequent visitor to the UEFA Champions League every year. It is not an easy task to deal with him.

Mourinho clearly remembers that when he led a team with a star lineup like Chelsea, he was double-killed by Ferguson in the league.

Inter Milan is also really unlucky. In the first knockout match, they met Ferguson, who has always been so sophisticated. How should Mourinho defend his home victory?

In the history of the UEFA Champions League, more than 80.00% of the teams that lose at home have lost the game. There are very few teams that turn from defeat to victory in the away game and advance. Such games will be called the miracle of the UEFA Champions League .

Ferguson didn't know what tactics to use to challenge Inter Milan. In fact, Mourinho didn't know what tactics to use to limit Manchester United's performance.

Although Mourinho knows how to play in the Premier League, the Manchester United team in Ferguson's hands is too maneuverable, and Mourinho doesn't know what moves Ferguson will make.

However, he knew that the initiative of the game must be in his own hands.

The biggest difference between the Premier League and Serie A is the attacking rhythm. The attacking rhythm of the Premier League is very fast, and the offensive and defensive transitions are faster, while the Serie A is a steady and slow-paced game.

After Mourinho came to Inter Milan, the pace of Inter Milan's game also picked up. However, compared with the fast pace of the Premier League, Inter Milan's game pace is not fast.

Therefore, based on the principle that controlling the ball is equal to controlling the game, Mourinho formulated a battle plan, and must bring Manchester United to the rhythm of the Inter Milan game.

However, this is not an easy task.

As we all know, Serie A is a league that prefers to use a three-back formation. Inter Milan's common formation in Serie A is 3-4-3.

However, Mourinho believes that a 3-4-3 formation must not be used against a team like Manchester United. It is too easy to be counterattacked by Manchester United. Manchester United's defensive counterattack ability is terrible. O will not give Ferguson such a chance.

So, Mourinho came up with the starting lineup for Manchester United at [-] o'clock tonight.

Goalkeeper: Cesar
Defenders: Maicon, Cordoba, Samuel Thornton

Midfielders: Cambiasso, Zanetti, Vieira

Attacking midfielder: Stankovic
Forwards: Ibrahimovic, Balotelli
In terms of formation, Mourinho adopted a 4-3-1-2 formation. This formation can not only strengthen the defensive ability, but also has the threat of offense.

For Mourinho, this is a relatively conservative formation, because he doesn't know how strong the current Manchester United team is, so he puts a relatively balanced offensive and defensive formation to test the waters. If it doesn't work, he can make adjustments on the spot.

As for the starting players, Ibrahimovic is the most stable player in the current Inter Milan, while Adriano and Balotelli are in average condition.

After several considerations, Mourinho still chose to let the 19-year-old teenager Balotelli start the game. He believes that young players are more energetic. Playing against a team like Manchester United, Balotelli may be able to provide Mourinho. O surprise.

Manchester United's 19-year-old player Park has been able to kill the Quartet all his life. Why can't Balotelli, who also made his debut as a talented player?
In Mourinho's eyes, Balotelli is more intimidating than Park Yisheng, simply because Balotelli is black and Park Yisheng is Asian. Terry is much better, but Balotelli has an absolute advantage in strength, which is unmatched by Park in his life.

Therefore, Mourinho decided to let Balotelli start instead of Adriano.

Judging from the lineups of Manchester United and Inter Milan, this game will be a battle of gods. The combined value of the players on both sides is over [-] million. I have to say that this is really the era of gold dollar football.
