Chapter 88 Unmeasured
It was late at night when the plane landed at Munich Airport, but there were still many reporters waiting in the airport lobby, most of whom were German journalists.
Degan is naturally the focus of attention. He had previously said that he would score a goal in the match against Bayern Munich, which aroused the unanimous indignation of Bayern soldiers.
"Goal!? Of course! This is my responsibility! Is there anything wrong with me to score in the game? Yes! You're right. Bayern Munich is really powerful. They are seven points ahead of Bremen in the Bundesliga table, but so what? Milan is not a German team. Why do you think we have no chance of winning?!"
Milan is not a German team!
The German reporters present reacted and collectively exploded. Degan's words are clearly saying that German football has fallen, so Bayern Munich can dominate the domestic league. Once it comes to the European arena, there is no need to worry.
"Okay! Since you think so, I do think so. German football has indeed fallen in recent years. Look at the German national team and you will know that it is still those old faces and few young people! Isn't that the truth? And how many Germans are there in Bayern Munich's main lineup!?
As Degan said, there are really few Germans in Bayern Munich's main lineup. Left-back Lizarazu, right-back Sanior, central defender Lucio, Van Bitten, midfielder Hargreaves, Demy Kelis, strikers Makai and Pizarro are not Germans.
"Let's have a look! Everyone knows that German football has indeed begun to decline, which is a fact, didn't Rummenigt say? German clubs do not attach importance to the team's youth training. They would rather spend a lot of money to buy well-known foreign stars than invest more money in the youth training camp. If Bayern Munich is really strong and you want me to know that German football is still the top in the world, please send more during the game. German players! Of course, I don't think Magart will agree!"
Of course, Magat will not agree. If all German players are sent, Bayern Munich can only be transferred from the youth team.
Degan's words at the airport appeared on the front page of Germany's mainstream newspaper the day after another day: "Digan's wild words: German football has fallen!"
One stone stirs up thousands of waves!
Degan's remarks caused an uproar throughout Germany.
German football star Beckenbauer: "He obviously lacks the most basic respect. I think his remarks will make AC Milan encounter greater difficulties during the game. Bayern players will teach him how to speak on the field!"
Rummenig also made a statement: "I do think the youth training of German football started a little late, but German football is still the mainstream in Europe. Degan's remarks are a little untimely and lack of respect for German football. He must pay for it!"
The famous players have stood up, and Bayern Munich's players naturally did not fall behind. Captain Kahn said angrily, "I will break his bones during the game and let him know the strength of Bayern Munich!"
Barack also said: "Digan wrongly launched a psychological war, and his remarks will only make us more angry. During the game, I will try my best to show him the power of German football!"
Bayern Munich coach Magart was also interviewed later: "I can only say that he is over his own strength. He seems to think that he can conquer the whole of Europe by conquering Serie A. He said that the Bundesliga has fallen, so what about the Italian League? That unself-sufficient boy must pay for his big mouth! I hope he can walk out of the Allianz Stadium with his head raised after the game, but I don't think that's a big hope!"
Digan didn't expect the Germans to react so fiercely: "If they want to teach me a lesson on the court, just come. If they want to win, they will score more goals than us!"
scored more goals than AC Milan!
Obviously, Degan's implication is that he will definitely break through Bayern Munich's goal at the Allianz Stadium!
Kahn, who felt insulted, said angrily, "If he wants to score a goal, just try it!"
Degan's subsequent words directly put an end to his air war with Kahn: "If he has time to talk, he'd better think about how to take the position of the main goalkeeper of the national team from Lehman!"
Kahn has nothing to say!
This is really difficult!
Munich, Germany, before the first leg of the 2005/2006 UEFA Champions League 1/8 final.
AC Milan is conducting the final warm-up training before the game at Allianz Stadium. Allianz Stadium is now full of fans. These Germans do not look friendly to Italian guests from afar, and their boos have been accompanying AC Milan's team.
Ancelotti stood on the sidelines, and his face became more and more gloomy. The players on the field were obviously affected by the boos. Coupled with the cold weather in Munich, everyone's movements seemed a little stiff, and even the ball stopped.
Of course, there is an exception, that is, Degan. The boo is too pediatric for him. In Atlanta, in AC Milan, he almost came with the boo. Those German boos would not blow him into the Mediterranean, and the German scolding, which he couldn't understand at all. .
What a freak!
Ancelotti muttered in his heart that although he hated Degan very much, he now had to admit that Degan was his last resort to save the handsome position.
Ancelotti has announced the list of appearances before. In the position of goalkeeper, he finally chose Australian Karachi. Although Karachi's state is unstable and the technology in front of the goal is rough, it is obviously more suitable for him to deal with Bayern Munich's header attack.
Right-back Ancelotti only had the last choice to choose Simic. Although he brought Cafu to Germany, Cafu's physical condition did not meet the requirements for the game. In Ancelotti's view, it was also a helpless move to send Simic.
Central defender Ancelotti chose Nesta and Kaladze, which is the strongest combination he can bring out. Maldini and Stam are injured, and there are only three central defenders left in his hand, but the old Costakuta is obviously not enough to deal with this fierce game.
Left-back Serginho is also the only choice, but unlike Simic, Serginho has always been Ancelotti's favorite.
The midfield is well-staffed. Pirlo, Gattuso, Sedorf and Kaka have no physical problems. This combination is also the usual configuration of Ancelotti in the last three seasons.
On the forward line, Degan partner Inzaghi. When choosing a partner for Degan, Ancelotti also hesitated for a long time. Although Girardino's state has declined sharply recently, the threat in front of the door is obviously greater than Inzaghi, but in the end Ancelotti still chose Inzaghi, just because of Inzaghi Ji's three goals against Bayern Munich.
Of course, Ancelotti's greatest hope is still in Digan. Although he is reluctant, this is the truth.
This is the only way!
AC Milan's warm-up ended, and the main players had to return to the locker room to prepare for the battle. When they left, the players from Bayern Munich also arrived.
Degan looked at Barak coming towards him. In his previous life, Barak was also a player he admired very much. He not only had the toughness of German players, but also had very good skills.
However, even if he is an appreciating player, this is obviously not a good opportunity to say hello. In the pre-match debate, Degan has become the most unpopular person in Germany.
Barak was also looking at Degan. When the two passed by, he whispered to Degan, "Kid! I'll show you how good German football is!"
Digan was stunned, stopped, and then smiled: "Okay! Let's wait!"
Back in the locker room, Digan began to sort out his equipment, and Ancelotti seized the time and told the players to have ideas on the court. He had stressed these words countless times before, and now he is still chattering, which can only prove that Ancelotti is also very nervous about this game.
After Ancelotti finished speaking, it was the turn of Gattuso, the captain of today's game, to mobilize before the battle. Maldini and Ambrosini could not play, and the captain's armband was worn on Gattuso's arm.
"Guys! It's time to fight, and we all know very well that before the game starts, the clowns think we are sure to lose. The reason why we came here today is to win and tell those people how ridiculously they are wrong, try our best to kill Bayern and defend Milan's honor~~~~~~~~" P>
Gattuso roared hoarsely, but Degan could see that the effect was not obvious. Some people were obviously too nervous, which made Digan a little worried.
You can only do your best!
When it came to the field, when Digan walked out of the player channel, the whole Allianz Stadium immediately sounded with overwhelming students. Obviously, Degan's words before the game had made the whole Germany angry.
"Ky! Wait to pee in your pants!" Kahn stood in front of him and stretched out his hand with a ferocious smile on his face.
Degan reached out and shook his hand with Kahn: "Okay! Let's see if you can stop me!"
Kahn is indeed one of the best goalkeepers in the world, but now that he is old, Degan doesn't think he can't win such an uncle-level opponent.
Serginho, standing next to Degan, whispered, "Hey! Rod! You seem to have pissed him off!"
Digan smiled indifferently: "I don't care!"
