Chapter 030 The feud between Milan and Genoa

Maldini's expression was solemn, and the veteran sighed and told Zhang Yang about the feud between Milan and Genoa.

The hatred between Genoa and Milan can be traced back to 12 years ago. The Serie A in the 1994/1995 season was undoubtedly particularly dark for Genoa fans. On January 29, a young Genoese fan was stabbed to death outside the Ferraris stadium by Milan's extreme fans. In the same year, Genoa was unfortunately relegated. The double disaster of the death of fans and the team's relegation makes this hatred even deeper.

Twelve years of reincarnation, the former strong team Genoa returned to Serie A, but the hatred has not been eliminated. The shadow of violence became clearer with the finalization of the schedule of the new season. After learning that the team's first opponent to return to Serie A after 12 years was AC Milan, the whole city of Genoa, from residential areas to the open space on the outskirts of the city, and even the outer wall of the Ferraris Stadium, there was full of graffiti full of revenge elements, to the victims. Spaniolo's commemoration has been fully upgraded to make Milanese pay for their blood. In the forums of several major Genoa fans, revenge against Milan fans is also brewing in an organized manner. The biggest headache for the government is that some extreme fans also call on locals to participate in their revenge through group text messages.

In response to the possible large-scale court violence, the Italian sports authorities issued an urgent notice. Genoa played against AC Milan at home. In view of the feud between the two sides, the Italian Public Safety Commission officially issued a resolution to prohibit AC Milan fans from going to Genoa to watch the game live with only one day left before the game!

In response to the possible serious violence, the Public Security Committee first held a hearing to collect opinions from all parties. At the hearing, the representative of the Genoa police made it clear that "tough measures must be taken, otherwise it will be difficult to ensure that there is no bloodshed."

The police have said so, and the bad situation can naturally be imagined.

Both clubs hope to deal with it peacefully. The senior management of Genoa had hoped to invite Spaniolo's mother to persuade the fans, but he refused, and the old man did not want to touch the pain in his heart again.

Ticket sales for the game have been closed. The final result of the discussions between the Public Safety Committee, the professional league, the professional league, AC Milan and Genoa, and the local police station in Genoa is that AC Milan fans are prohibited from watching the game on the spot. In addition to closing the stadium, this is the most severe preventive measure.

In addition, the Milan club has also appealed to the fans to comply with the regulations and never go to the scene to watch the game on the day of the game.

AC Milan assistant coach Tassotti once explained the situation to the players before departure, but at that time, Zhang Yang may have been distracted and did not pay attention. That's why I was shocked.

It's just that some players are psychologically prepared and are a little afraid of the madness of Genoa fans.

After arriving at the hotel, the players quickly got out of the car and entered the hotel, because outside the hotel, there were at least hundreds of Genoa fans who had been waiting here for a long time. They shouted radical slogans and were emotional. The police at the scene had communicated with the Milan bus in advance and asked the players not to drink. Stop at the door of the store and enter the hotel immediately after getting off the bus, otherwise safety will not be guaranteed.

When Zhang Yang walked to the door of the hotel, he turned his head and saw a huge banner. He didn't know the Italian on it, but the red font on it seemed to be blood, which still made the young man's heart tight.

After a while, a piece of news spread among Milan's players. Several Milan fans came to Genoa privately. They were found and beaten by a group of Genoese football hooligans. If the Genoa police hadn't come in time, they would have been killed.

Although the rumors have not been confirmed, they still make the Milan players, including Zhang Yang, depressed.

"Think about it. No one wants to encounter such a thing." Maldini patted Zhang Yang on the shoulder and said. We just need to pay attention to the game.

Zhang Yang nodded silently and said nothing. He was not scared by the radical fans, but the atmosphere was really depressing.

Moreover, he does not agree with the radical behavior of Genoese fans. The death of fans in those years is something that no one wants to happen, and it is really sad and sad. However, this is not a reason for some radical fans to attack Milan fans and Milan players.

After arriving at the hotel, Ancelotti immediately announced the team's discipline. Everyone stayed in the hotel and was not allowed to go anywhere.

In fact, there is no need for Ancelotti to say anything at all, and no one will leave the hotel. After all, everyone knows the current situation, and no one will joke about their personal safety. Look at the excitement of those Genoa fans. It's hard to say which radical fans will chase you eight streets with bricks.

That night, no one had a good rest, because Genoa fans gathered outside the hotel and kept shouting and making noise, which affected the sleep of the Milan players and many people lost sleep. Obviously, Genoa fans are deliberately trying to interfere with the rest and sleep of Milan players.

AC Milan called the police, but the Genoa police were procrastinating. After arriving at the scene, it took more than an hour to persuade the fans to leave. It was already three o'clock in the middle of the night. Obviously, the local police also did it on purpose at this time. They are conniving Genoa fans.

The game will be played that afternoon. Naturally, it won't work without a good rest. Therefore, Ancelotti had no choice but to cancel the training that morning and let the players get some sleep.

After lunch in the hotel, the head coach of Ancelotti went to Luigi. Ferraris Stadium Park participated in the pre-match news broadcast. At the press conference, Ancelotti tried his best to dilute the focus of the feud between the two teams, and put more on the topic on the team. Ancelotti first congratulated Genoa on returning to Serie A after 12 years. He said that the Serie A without Genoa is It's incomplete. Now, the lost territory is finally put together.

Then he said, "After the holiday training, the team is more mature than before. However, you can also see that we have a lot of injured players, which is the biggest problem now. When the players recover from injuries and can participate in the game, we will be stronger than last season."

As the transfer champion of Serie A and even the whole European football so far, Zhang Yang is also the focus of media attention, especially after Juventus veteran Trezeguet's hat-trick.

"I know that many people are looking at Zhang Yang. He is the most expensive player in Europe this summer, which has attracted a lot of attention. However, I hope you can understand that this is just an ordinary league. Zhang Yang has just joined the team. His tacit understanding with the team has not yet been formed. No one can guarantee that what we see today is the best Zhang. However, I believe that this young man will try to show his best side. In fact, he I've been doing a good job." Ancelotti was very protective of Zhang Yang and tried to relieve the pressure for Zhang Yang.

Genoa head coach Gasperini looked low-key in the news conference. "AC Milan is the European champion. Such an opponent is simply a huge thing for us. Of course, this does not mean that we admit defeat. We will try our best to dedicate a wonderful game to the fans."

"Kaka is the most threatening player in Milan. He is a superstar who can change the game at any time." Gasperini praised Kaka very much, and then commented on Zhang Yang, "Of course I know Zhang. I was amazed at his performance in the Champions League last season. Such an excellent young shooter has not been seen in Europe for several years. Obviously, this is also a very dangerous guy. We must be careful of him."

The game started at 3:45 p.m. on August 26. At 3:00 p.m., the Luigi Ferraris Stadium was already full, and the home and visiting fans occupied the court early. They shouted slogans, and banners could be seen everywhere.

There are banners that miss Spaniolo. This makes people feel sad. It seems to be back to the bad days twelve years ago.

However, there are more radical banners:

In the central stands of the stadium, a huge banner, vertically down from the third floor of the stadium, hung there, which reads:

Welcome to hell, we will kill you!

The red font is like blood!

Unlike the tense smell of gunpowder smoke on the main stand of the stadium, in the VIP box of the stadium, the home team chairman Spinelli enthusiastically led AC Milan vice president Galliani in. The two chatted as they walked, with a smile on their faces, as if they were talking happily.

Galliani congratulated Genoa on its return to Serie A, and Spinelli congratulated AC Milan on winning the Champions League last season, which looked like a very harmonious scene.

At this time, the players came out to warm up.

When the AC Milan players warmed up, the boos of the whole stadium were shocking. Geno fans tried to rush into the stadium to attack the Milan players, but were subdued by the long-awaited security personnel and taken away.

These are all tense atmospheres for a long time, just like adding fuel to the fire.

Zhang Yang looked up and saw the huge banner. He flattened his mouth. Pirlo next to him noticed his expression and asked strangely.

"I was wondering if they would burn this banner by themselves if we beat them at the end of the game." Zhang Yang kicked the ball that Pirlo kicked into the net and said.

Pirlo smiled and patted Zhang Yang's shoulder. He didn't say anything. Pirlo had already passed the domineering age, and he himself was not that kind of reboyant personality. However, this does not prevent him from admiring Zhang Yang. Some young people encounter such a bad away environment. Although they are so scared that their legs are weak and it is a little exaggerated, they are good to be able to play a normal level. It is not like this one, but they are full of fighting spirit.

The team needs such a high-spirited young man. What's more, Pirlo knows Zhang Yang's strength, and he will naturally win respect if he has strength.

Zhang Yang naturally doesn't know what Pirlo is thinking. He is really fighting spirited. The enmity between Genoese and Milan is an old history, which has little to do with Zhang Yang. For the Genoa fan who died 12 years ago, although Zhang Yang will still sigh and sympathize a little, this does not mean that. He can understand the increasingly aggressive behavior of Genoa fans.

Especially last night, Genoa fans disturbed him so that he couldn't sleep well, which made Zhang Yang extremely unhappy.

This is Zhang Yang's first Serie A game, and it is the debut of Zhang Yang's Serie A. So what about multimedia staring? Zhang Yang's value of 43 million euros is not for nothing, which is under great pressure. And many people are waiting to see his jokes.

Zhang Yang gritted his teeth and vowed to play this game well, score a goal, and show everyone with a good start.

The behavior of the Genoa fans makes him not have a good rest. If he doesn't have a good rest, it must have an impact. This is related to Zhang Yang's performance today. He doesn't want to give some people a chance to criticize him. Therefore, Zhang Yang certainly has reason to be angry about the radical behavior of Genoa fans.

I don't have time to control the anger of the Genoa fans against Milan and those long-standing grudges. I'm here to score goals.

The steps of conquering the Apennine Peninsula, let's start here!
