Chapter 486 Derby's Drool

After the motorcycle incident, the whole city of Milan is waiting for the arrival of the Milan Derby.

When it comes to Italian football, people naturally think of the world famous football city Milan. When it comes to Milan, people naturally think of the famous Milan derby. In order to compete for the hegemony of Milan, Milan's two heroes have been competing for a century. Some people say that half of Milan is seawater, the other half is flame, the sea is blue Inter Milan, the flame is red AC Milan, and water and fire are never tolerated.

As one of the most prestigious and historic derby battles in the world, every encounter between Milan's two heroes can attract the attention of fans around the world in a wonderful, fierce and even bloody way. According to Milan fans, every Milan derby is a classic, which condenses the essence of Italian football.

After Inter Milan split from AC Milan in 1908, the two clubs began to compete fiercely. The first heavy hit in the derby was AC Milan.

In 1910, on the court on Bronzetti Street in Milan, Inter Milan defeated AC Milan 5-0, which was the first time that the two clubs played a high score in the Milan derby. However, just a few days later, the two teams played against each other again, and AC Milan succeeded in revenge 5 to 1.

The most cruel Milan derby was the match on March 3, 1918. AC Milan and Inter Milan met in the Mauro Cup final. As a result, AC Milan slaughtered Inter Milan 8-1. AC Milan's Grand Chevini scored 5 goals alone, Chevinini Jr. scored 2 goals, and Marini scored 1 goal. La Gazzetta dello Sport later commented on the game: "AC Milan eliminated Inter Milan in a fast and noble way, and their advantage in the game was really obvious."

Around 1918 was a golden age for AC Milan, and they continued to achieve happy results in the Milan derby. However, a friendly match on January 25, 1920 changed the situation. Inter Milan unexpectedly won the game 7-3. The protagonist of the game was Agrady, who scored two own goals by himself. By September 19, 1926, AC Milan and Inter Milan held a derby here to celebrate the completion of the San Rossi Stadium, and Inter Milan won 6-9. At that time, the San Siro Stadium belonged to AC Milan and was built at the initiative of AC Milan Chairman Pirelli.

Inter Milan in the Ambrosiana era is a glorious era for the Nerazzurri, but this does not mean that they have an advantage in the Milan derby, because that period was also the era when AC Milan's Swedish three muskeletes "Gre-No-Li" were rampant. November 6, 1949 was an important day in the history of Milan's derby. 11 goals culminated in the enthusiasm of the fans on both sides. At that time, AC Milan, led 4:1 in the 19th minute, with Nodalgren and Lidholm as the core, but no one expected that Inter Milan after that He scored five goals in a row and led 6-4. Although AC Milan then scored a goal, Inter finally defeated AC Milan 6:5, completing the most perfect reversal in Milan's Derby history.

The Milan derby on March 28, 1965 was also one of the most important derby matches in history. Inter Milan defeated AC Milan 2-2, and Mazola scored two goals and became the hero of the game. Two years later, Inter Milan defeated AC Milan 4-0 in the league. The glory of the great international era shone on the whole of Europe in that era, and AC Milan is no exception. The Milan derby on March 24, 1974 was the fastest derby in history, with five goals in 45 minutes in the first half. Inter Milan scored 4 goals and 1 goal for AC Milan. In the end, Inter Milan won 5-1.

The high-score war between AC Milan and Inter Milan was silent throughout the 1980s, but by the end of the 1990s, it suddenly reached a **. On January 8, 1998, the two teams met in the Coppa Italia, and AC Milan easily won 5-0. At 6-0 in the first half of the season on January 15, AC Milan once again brought Inter Milan into a collapse, which led to the breakdown of head coach Tardelli and the arrival of the magical coach Chinese Jiang Mu.

He was beaten by AC Milan twice in three years, which made Inter Milan full of shame. After Jiang Mu took office, Inter Milan made a stunning record and repeatedly massacred strong enemies such as Lazio, Parma and Juventus, which made Inter Milan fans full of illusions. I hope that Inter Milan is in Jiang Mu. Under the leadership of AC Milan, he can also complete the revenge.

Although AC Milan slaughtered Inter Milan at 6:0 in the first half, AC Milan is indeed in a very poor state this season. In fact, their state was very average last season. Zacheroni did not leave the class only because he finally caught the straw of the Champions League.

This season, AC Milan is not only in poor condition, but also unlucky, with continuous injuries. It was out of the Champions League early and was eliminated by Fiorentina in the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia. Not only has it been hopeful to win the championship just after the first half of the league, but even the Champions League seat has become a problem. Even if Zacellini is fired, Old Maldini is appointed as a firefighting teacher. Practice, AC Milan can only be called a slight rise, and there is no earth-shaking change after Inter Milan's midway change.

Although the status of Inter Milan and AC Milan and their status in the league are the same, we must not think that Inter Milan will be able to win the Milan derby, because the derby has nothing to do with the league ranking, nor does it have anything to do with the status, and it has little to do with strength. This is a match that can be compared with all. A game taken out alone in the game, or a battle, is not about strength and state, but courage and tenacity.

In the face of such a heavyweight competition, Jiang Mu, who participated in the Milan derby for the first time, stressed before the game that Inter Milan must forget the ranking of the two sides in the league and come up with the best form to meet the challenge of AC Milan. Although it was followed by the UEFA Cup final, Jiang Mu said that he would not consider Liverpool, his opponent in the final. In his opinion, winning the Milan derby is as important as winning the UEFA Cup.

In an interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport, he said: "Only Milan will understand what the Milan derby means. Even if the team wins the league championship or even the Champions League, if it can't win the Milan derby, then this is a failed season. I think I can't wait for the Milan derby. We are fully prepared to beat AC Milan and continue to maintain our advantage over Rome.

Jiang Mu is the first time to participate in the Milan derby. Although old Maldini has participated in countless Milan derbys as a player, as a coach, he is also the first time for a big girl to get into a sedan chair. In the face of such a world-renowned battle, old Maldini is also worried and cautious.

"There is no doubt that Inter Milan is in a much better state than us now. They still won the league championship again and won 16 games in a row. This is an incredible result. No one has ever been able to do this in Serie A before, but they have won too much. It's time to lose. I think God The task of ending Inter Milan will be handed over to us. Ronaldo is terrible, and Vieira is also difficult to deal with, but what worries me most is their head coach Jiang Mu. I have never seen such a young but experienced coach whose existence has subverted all common sense. I hope the Milan derby will be the same, defeating those with weak strength and defeating those in poor condition.

Milan Derby naturally has to drool.

The head coaches of the two teams are talking, and the players of the next two teams will inevitably have to talk.

AC Milan captain Maldini said: For me, derby is always the kind of game you look forward to in your life. Therefore, Derby is always Derby, and the word Derby has determined the meaning of the game. Looking back on the derby in the past few years, I think the reason why AC Milan has always been dominant in the derby is that our performance is more stable. We have lost the opportunity to win the championship this season, but we still have the opportunity to decide the trend of the league championship and beat Inter Milan. If we can let them lose the championship, this will be Milan fans. It's a very happy thing."

Maldini also talked about his views on Inter Milan: I respect Inter very much. I think Inter's playing style this season has finally changed, and the court is more rational and orderly. However, if from the perspective of pure competition, this game is no different from any other Serie A game or derby, we will play seriously. The strength of AC Milan is that we will achieve favorable results when we are in poor shape.

As a defender, Maldini is very afraid of Inter Milan's risk combination. "Vieira is the strongest center, but I'm still more afraid of Ronaldo. Ronaldo's health is unstoppable. He and Bobo are different types of players. You won't see Ronnie's speed and acceleration on the second player. Maybe Maradona may have his speed at the peak. If Ronaldo starts at high speed, no one can stop him. Bobo's physical condition is excellent. His strength is difficult for his opponents to fight. In addition, Bobo also has great skills. To intercept the waves, it is not enough to rely on direct physical confrontation. It is very dangerous to guard against him after thinking about it. We should learn to stare at him with our brains, and we should do a good job of defense between defenders. However, the derby is not only a confrontation between Vieri, Ronaldo and our defenders, but also a match between two teams with great goals.

Zanetti, the captain of Inter Milan, will naturally stand up. Even in the mouth water, they can't fall behind. After dinner, the saliva between the players is also talked about by the fans.

"This is a very meaningful and special game. This derby is extremely important. We lost miserably in the first half. At that time, I cried sadly. In this derby, we will definitely take revenge, but we will not be impatient. This will be an evenly matched game. There may be mistakes in a small part of the game. It will affect the outcome of the whole game. Therefore, our whole team should be highly focused. At present, we are only 2 points ahead of Roma. We must not lose or even draw. Later, we have encountered a series of fierce battles. If we can play well in the derby, it will take Inter Milan to take a big step forward and help improve the morale of the team.

Sanetti is also full of confidence in his front line. "The forwards of both teams are very strong, and there may be a lot of goals in the game. If so, the important thing is that Inter can score one more goal than their opponents. We have Bobo, and Ronnie is back, which gives us an important offensive weapon. Ronnie's strength, speed, physical fitness and explosive power are excellent. He will prove that he is a champion player.
