Chapter 68 Truce
Digan was lying in the hospital**, with plaster on his left leg, feeling as if it had ceased to exist. After the examination results came out, he and the team doctor were stunned.
Left calf fibula fracture!
The doctor who examined Degan heard that after his fracture, he could still insist on playing the whole game. He was shocked. Looking at his eyes, he clearly wrote: Non-human!
He was injured and needed further treatment, but Degan already knew that he would miss the game for at least three months this time, that is to say, he would not want to play before the end of the winter break.
Kaka called yesterday, and as he expected, Ancelotti was very dissatisfied with his hands and appeared on the training ground with a black face for several days.
The two national teams have infected many teams with the "FIFA virus", and AC Milan is no exception.
Degan is not the only Milan player injured in the national team. Nesta, the main defender of the Italian national team, also suffered a tendon injury in his left hand in the game, and will be absent for at least a month, of course, if everything goes well.
This means that he will miss the two games of the Champions League against Eindhoven. The most important thing is the battle with Juventus on October 29, in addition to three opponents: Cagliari, Palermo and Empoli.
It is unknown where the accident started. Some people say that after the Blues finished the match against Moldova on September 16, during the training before going to Scotland, the national team doctor Castellacci found that there was something wrong with Nesta's wrist, but finally only let Piero go home.
Milan defender still stayed to play against Scotland, and it was that negligence that caused today's results. The people who hold this view are mainly from AC Milan. Others said that Nesta's left hand has been injured for a long time. A stiff landing in Milan's previous battle with Schalke 04 worsened the injury. Of course, people who said this basically served in the Blue Army.
The next development of the matter was affirmed by both parties. When serving lunch at the national team training base last Friday, Nesta found that his left thumb could not move and quickly found Castellazzi for examination. The latter said, "I did not confirm the injury and quickly consulted AC Milan's team doctor."
After this phone call, Sara, the lead doctor of the Rossoneri, proposed to let the players not participate in the national team game the next day on behalf of the club, and Galliani also had a heated debate with the president of the Football Association, Carraro.
However, the national team's view is very clear that the injury was mainly caused by the match between Schalke 04 and Milan. Nesta participated in the later game against Reggina, so he can also play against Scotland. Nesta's own will also played a great role. He took the initiative to play.
Nesta appeared on the field of the national team as he wished, and the clearly visible bandage on his left hand made Galliani unable to be happy.
"I don't want to say anything about the national team." Galliani once said so.
Two hours before the club officially released the news of the operation, he said: "I don't want to cause controversy. This is an accident, but after all, Nesta was injured in the national team after a physical examination, but everyone should think about doing their job well.
In fact, after the battle with Schalke 04, Nesta showed hand pain to the Milan team doctor, but the latter only had a simple examination, neither X-rays nor MRI. In the following days, the doctor also said that the situation was getting better, but he was a member of the national team. The simple action of serving the plate has caused such serious consequences.
Is it the Frey's careless?
The question of how to balance the interests of the national team and the club was put on the table again. I heard from Kaka that AC Milan is likely to pay compensation to the Italian and Belgian national teams for his and Nesta's injuries.
In terms of compensation, Nesta is also the originator. In the 1998 World Cup between Italy and Austria, a six-month break from a serious injury to the cruciate ligament in his right knee made Lazio President Cranioti furious, which also triggered a proposal to compensate his club for injured players in the national team at the 2000 European Championships.
Of course, everyone knows that Milan's loss can't be made up by money. Without Digan, Milan's front line, there are Shevchenko, Girardino, Vieri, and Inzaghi, who has recovered from injury, and everyone knows that Degan has never been indispensable in Ancelotti's lineup.
And Nesta is different. Ancelotti doesn't have many choices in the central defender position. He can only let Maldini and Stam partner in the middle, provided that the horse team's knees are not disturbed. Once there is something wrong with the team, the substitute in the middle can only be to move out of the old goblin Costacuta.
Pirlo, who is also of the Italian national team, was also injured in the game. Fortunately, he was only slightly injured and only needed a few days to rest. However, the number of players in AC Milan's first team has also decreased sharply.
The so-called FIFA virus does not only mean that players are injured in the national team. Even if the players are not injured, they will travel a long way to participate in the national team's game, and then fly back to participate in the nearby club game, it will be very tired. Players will feel tired in such a dense schedule, especially in their hearts. Therefore, it is inevitable that there will be ups and downs, mainly in physical fitness. Many players who participate in the national team games are often very tired in the next league and can't run on the court at all, and their legs are like lead. That's why the head coaches of many clubs hate their players for playing in national teams.
It's okay to play in Europe, but like players from South America, Africa and Asia, this is very annoying, because if they want to participate in a national team game, they need to fly tens of thousands of kilometers back and forth, which consume a lot of physical energy and fluctuate state, which is useless for the club.
Chinese foreign players have suffered like this.
Why does Magat particularly hate Chinese players?
Because every time Yang Chen is in a better state in the club, the national team called him to participate in the game. Whether it is an important game or not, Yang Chen must go back to the national team game. After such a toss, his state is gone, and he is still at risk of injury in the national team. No one can stand this, so Magat later became very annoyed with Chinese players. Yang Chen can no longer rank in Magat's eyes, and so are other Chinese foreign players.
Even players who work abroad have received a notice from their provincial football association to return to participate in the National Games. For a provincial sports department, the National Games is of course very important, but for Chinese players who work hard outside, the National Games are really not What is worth flying back to the competition, but they have to go back, because they are rooted in their hometown and their organizational relationship is in the Provincial Football Association. The Football Association is their direct management department. They must listen to the call of the Football Association, otherwise you can't get along well in Chinese football in the future.
Everyone wants to protect their own interests. As the executive chairman of AC Milan, Galliani's natural position is to favor the interests of the club.
A player who can't always guarantee that he can play in a continuous club game, but runs to win glory for the country when the club needs him, is unlikely to get preferential treatment in the club. After all, it is not the national team that pays the players, but the club.
I spent money to recuperate you in my team, and then you go to the national team to contribute all your strength? No one will agree!
Why does Moratti hate Ronaldo so much? Ronaldo has been injured for more than a year. Inter Milan did their best to help him heal his injury. His salary was not in arrears. It was not easy to wait for Ronaldo to return to the team from his injury and shine in the World Cup between Japan and South Korea. What is the result?
Moratti was happy to wait for Ronaldo to lead Inter Milan to return to the glory of the era of the United Kingdom, but Ronaldo actually asked to leave.
There are also many clubs that don't like to buy African players, especially if the next year is the African Cup of Nations, especially the Premier League team.
Because the African Cup is held in January, at this time, for the Premier League team, the official schedule is the most intensive, and when the game is the most intense, the important players in the team are African international players, so they have to go back to participate in the African Cup and miss the game for at least half a month. Who can stand it?
For more than half a month of the game, the team is also going to temporarily introduce another player during the winter break to replace the player who left the team.
What's the pain?
Ancelotti does have a reason to be angry. Of course, Digan also knows that this anger is definitely not because of his injury. Maybe Ancelotti is still looking for a place to have fun. If Digan is away, he can justifiablely ignore this annoying Brazilian and reuse the Shevchenko he admires more. Radino, why not do it? Even if he can, he hopes that Degan will retire directly due to injury, so as not to come to Milan and add obstacles to him.
Galliani was busy with the Italian Football Association and the Belgian Football Association, but he didn't even call Degan to comfort him, which made Degan feel cold.
Although players get paid and play for the team, it is a kind of employment relationship, but even if it is really an employment relationship, at least it should be a little humane. However, it is obvious that this humane has become a luxury in Milan. Of course, they also have a humane, but it is for their own people, like Di Gan, at best, is a short-time Maike. Naturally, Galliani doesn't want to waste his feelings on him.
