After signing the economic peace treaty with Mendes, Mendes soon brought a surprise to Degan. Although the endorsement contract of Armani, a world famous brand, was not as strong as the previous two door-to-door contracts, had a three-year period of 10 million euros, which still made Degan a lot of money.
With money in his pocket, Degan thought it was time to buy a house. It's not a matter to rent it all the time, but this matter still needs to be slow down. After all, his future has not been determined, and everything can only be decided until the end of this season.
However, Mendes has given his opinion from the perspective of the broker. It is not a good choice to stay in Atlanta, and so is it to return to AC Milan.
Originally, Degan thought that Mendes would persuade him to Milan. After all, AC Milan is a rich team, and it is a recognition of a player to be able to play for a rich team.
"No! Rod! I don't think it's the best time to return to Milan. If you want to be the main player, there is no place for you on Milan's front line now. Shevchenko is Ancelotti's first choice, and between you and Inzaghi, Ancelotti obviously prefersigi!"
Degan also knows that it will be like this. Ancelotti likes veterans, just like his tactical style, as stable as ever. As long as Shevchenko and Inzaghi are not injured, they will definitely be the first choice on the Milan front line, and Degan's tactical characteristics overlap with many players in the Milan lineup.
But it's too early to say this, and everything has been decided after the end of the season. After all, Atlanta is in very good condition now. Maybe it's good to stay here and create an era that belongs to Degan, just like what Maradona did in Naples.
Atlanta will continue to play Palermo at home this weekend. Palermo is in a very good condition this season. Although it is also a promoted horse, relying on a group of strong players in the team, they will still be placed fifth in the league table in the middle of the season. Next season The UEFA Champions League is very promising.
If some young people in the Atlanta team are very popular, the powerful players in Palermo are also eye-catching.
In particular, their defense line is simply unbelievable. Zaccardo, Grosso and Barzali have all attracted the attention of the head coach of the national team, Lippi. In contrast, although Atlanta, with zero internationals, is a helper, it seems to be full of grassroots.
In this game, Mandolini still sent the strongest lineup. Degan still partnered with Pacini. Montolivo organized the attack behind the two. Albertini, Lazari and Zenoni formed a back group. Bellini, Sara, Natali and Rivalta served as the defense, and Tabby served as the goalkeeper.
Palermo's starlight shine is not bad at all. The goalkeeper Guadalben, right-back Zaccardo, central defender Balzari and Villava, left-back is the great Italian left-back Grosso who almost made Huang Jianxiang urinate, with Italian veteran Corini and Barone, Argentina's fast Ma Santana and On both sides of the Gonzalez division, Zauli organized an attack, and high school striker Tony served as a single arrow.
Just at the beginning of the game, Atlanta launched a wave of offensive. After handing over all the things outside the field, Degan, who was light, received a pass from Montolivo 20 meters in front of the goal, turned around and shot vigorously with his left foot. Guardalben flew. Jump up and throw the ball out of the right post.
"Digan shot! What a pity! Guadalben reacted in time and saved the ball, but Degan looked as good as ever in this game, and his shot almost opened the record for Atlanta.
Although Atlanta took the lead and almost scored a goal, Palermo is not willing to show weakness. Their current results are very promising to enter the Champions League next season. Even in the face of the recent hot Atlanta, they will not be willing to fail.
The soul player in Palermo is Corini. Although his career is not smooth, the Italian veteran suddenly glowed in the second spring after the transfer to Evo. Now after the transfer to Palermo, he is still in a state.
He played the pass very penetratingly and combed the midfield very well. Palermo's whole team seemed to be controlled by him, and it was easy to command.
Atlanta launched a continuous attack, but it was a pity that Palermo made several offside successes, making Atlanta's attack comeback.
In the eighth minute of the game, Degan almost scored again. Guadarben got out of his hand when he took a long shot from Albertini. Degan scored in time, but was sentenced to be offside first.
After scoring, Degan was ready to celebrate, but he saw the lineman holding the apricot yellow flag high, and the referee also whistled to signal that the goal was invalid, Palermo's goal.
offside?
Digan ran to the lineman incredulously and asked loudly. He had been observing the position of Palermo's defender just now. When Albertini got up, there were at least two positions between him and Biava. How could he be offside?
"Mr. Referee, although I respect your decision, I was not offside at all just now. You killed one of my goals!"
The lineman also insisted on his judgment and waved his hand to signal Degan to leave as soon as possible: "I see very clearly that you are indeed offside. Don't make trouble!"
Damn it!
You killed and set fire, but it's still reasonable!
When Degan heard this, his anger suddenly increased: "Since you insist on your judgment, do you dare to go back and watch the replay? You will be ashamed of your wrong decision!"
When the referee saw that Digan was looking for trouble with the lineman, he also ran over and indiscriminately. First, he gave Degan a yellow card, and Degan was stunned, and then he almost punched the referee in the face.
"Calm down! Rod!"
Fortunately, Pacini ran over in time and hugged Degan. If he waved his fist, it would be troublesome at that time. On the football field, the referee was a judge in black. They said that everything made sense. Players can only listen and do nothing, otherwise it would interfere with the referee's law enforcement and challenge authority.
What kind of bullshit is this?
Albertini also came over at this time and negotiated with the referee in front of Degan. Although he was not the captain, his status in Atlanta was not low at all.
The referee was ready to take a yellow card when he saw that Digan was going to do it, but when he saw Albertini coming, he still resisted. Albertini was a representative of the Italian Players Union and was there.
"Mr. Referee! He's just a little excited, young man, I think it's forgivable, and you've given him a yellow card!"
The referee doesn't want to make things big. After all, this is Atlanta's home court, and today's Atlanta is not a little fish that everyone kneaded.
"Demi! I don't want to take care of your people next time!"
Albertini nodded, turned around and pulled Degan away, whispering, "Rod! You must control your temper, or it will be the team that will suffer losses. I don't think you want our efforts this season, because your momentary excitement will all be in vain!"
Although Digan was angry, he had to admit that Albertini was right and competed with the referee. There was indeed no hope of winning. Even if everyone admitted that it was the bastard's fault after the game, but if he did it, the penalty of the Italian Football Association would not be light.
"The gaffe seems to have subsided. Seriously, I wanted to punch that bastard referee just now. He killed one of our good balls!"
The commentators were also shouting against the borderliners, and the fans were even more rude and booed. The Atlanta fans behind the borderline greeted 18 generations of his ancestors and had an in-depth and intimate exchange with the women of his family.
The game continued to score goals, Guadalben opened the goal ball, Palermo's quick attack quickly shifted to the right side, Gonzalez did not seem to be a threat to cut the ball, but he suddenly made a strong left foot low shot at the front of the right corner of the penalty area, Tibi was caught off guard and leaked the ball into the near corner, Palermo took the lead 1-0.
Seeing the goal, Gonzalez also looked very excited. After running for dozens of meters, a knee slipped and attracted another curse from the fans at the scene.
Tibi also sat on the ground and was depressed. The ball just now was entirely his responsibility. He didn't expect that Gonzalez would suddenly shoot and be attacked by his opponent.
The referee just blew off a good ball from Atlanta and turned his head to Palermo to take the lead, which was too demoralized for everyone.
After losing the ball, Atlanta also strengthened its attack. In the twenty-first minute, Atlanta played the most threatening offensive since the opening. Lazari's left rib passed diagonally to the back point, Degan headed the ball and Pazini followed in time. Seven meters in front of the goal, he pulled his foot and shot angrily, and the football was slightly off the post.
Atlanta's attack only blossomed and did not bear fruit. As a result, in the 31st minute, Argentina quickly sent a straight ball from Santana's left rib. Tony used his physical advantage to shake off Natali, who defended him, and shoveled his left foot into the lower right corner in the penalty area.
0:2!
Atlanta actually fell two goals behind their opponents at home, and the fans at the scene became quiet. Looking at the crazy celebration of the Palermo players on the court, they could only worry.
Degan could only be anxious about what happened. Atlanta clearly occupied the initiative on the court, but he was unable to score a goal. Palermo scored two goals in one of the few shots.
Especially the second loss of the ball. When Santana passed the ball, Rivalta, who should have been forward to defend, was at least five meters away from Santana, and Natali, who defended Tony, also made an obvious mistake and was forcibly overtaken by Tony.
took the lead, and the initiative on the court was gradually controlled by Palermo. In the 39th minute, Gonzalez made a cross from the right side, Tony flashed between the two central defenders, and his left foot was eight meters in front of the goal and hooked into the net, but this wonderful shot was invalid.
Tony did not have offside, and the assistant referee did not raise the flag. The referee may have blown Tony and pushed Sarah. No matter how Atlanta narrowly escaped, if he missed three goals in the first half, he would really not be able to play this game.
Before the end of the first half, Degan still had a good chance, but unfortunately his shot was blocked from the bottom line by the helpless Guadalben.
In the end, Atlanta had no choice but to walk into the locker room with the gap between the two balls. It can be imagine what kind of anger Mandollini they will face.
At the end of the game, Degan suddenly noticed that Montolivo was obviously walking with fatigue, which was just half a game!
However, Digan was relieved when he thought about it again. Montolivo played almost all the games in Atlanta this season, especially before the winter break, the game was more intense, and his physical strength finally had problems.
This is exactly what Degan has been worried about before. Atlanta's bench depth should be too thin. Like Montolivo, there is not even a substitute player, so he can only stick to it.
It's not just Montolivo, Albertini, Zenoni and others. Atlanta's training is not very smart, and the physical reserve work before the start of the season is very unsystematic. It is lucky that there are only problems now.
If you still expect these people to finish the whole season, it will be a big problem, not to mention fighting for the championship.
Digan can indeed score goals, but he is not Superman. He also needs the help of his teammates on the field, but in the whole first half, Montolivo only gave him one threat ball, which was too few.
Mandolini did not look very angry. He also saw the problem. It was not that the players did not work hard, but that they really had no strength, especially Montolivo, one of the tridents in Atlanta. Pacini also had a Budan to rotate, but Montolivo did not even have a qualified substitute.
At halftime, what Mandolini said, Degan didn't listen to it at all. He has been thinking about the team's problems. He must buy people, and at the beginning of the winter transfer period, he must buy people.
Degan doesn't want to work hard for a season. In the end, he is empty-handed. The players are working hard on the field. They care not only about money, but also honors. If Degan wants to succeed, he must have the honor to hold. Otherwise, he will score 100 goals in a season. What's the use?
Thinking that the game in the second half had begun, Degan was about to get up and go out, but he heard the mobile phone in his locker ring. He took it out and saw that it was actually a message sent to him by Mendes. After reading it, Degan's eyes instantly opened.
Pereira is in the stands, perform well and strive to score goals!
