Chapter 159 Silver Fox Lippi

No one is willing to pay attention to the lawsuit between Degan and AC Milan at this time. Anyway, they are all unclear. AC Milan is now fighting in the palace. On the one hand, there are old ministers of the previous dynasty and on the other hand, they are royal nobles. Neither of them will bow to anyone. Lao Bei not help reconcile Galliani and Barbara. The contradiction between him is still waving flags and shouting to satisfy his bad taste. From time to time, he has to jump out of his sense of existence and attract hatred value, proving that he is still built, but he has no time to pay attention to the team and is busy with his sister.

AC Milan's palace play seems to be unplayable for a while, and people's attention then shifted to the World Cup.

Can Degan play?

At this time, even people who have been talking all over the world don't know. Others are easy to predict, but once the matter is involved in Degan, it will be troublesome. Who knows when and what kind of crazy Degan, this stuff full of shit will be.

However, most people's point of view is that Degan's injury is not enough to make him appear in the finals. Maniche's notoriety in La Liga is not false. Many talented players have been abandoned at his black feet. People don't believe that Degan is lucky enough to escape.

Of course, those who watch the hustle and bustle can say sarcastic things, but some people can't do it. This person is Silver Fox Lipi.

Of course, people are familiar with Lippi, and the Degan who came through time is even more familiar. In the previous life of Degan, old Comrade Lippi led Guangzhou Evergrande to win the championship of the AFC Champions League, and the old fox was really popular in China for a while.

Lippi's coaching career began with the Sampdoria youth team, but compared with the current glory, the first game he coached was insulted by his opponents and ridiculed by people. Until now, Lippi still remembers the sarcastic evaluation of him by the former Sampdoria first team coach Bernardini: "Lippi is so handsome. I'm afraid it's difficult to become a good coach. It's good if he can lose a little less next time.

But Lippi didn't care too much about this. He, who was controversial when he was young, has long been used to all this, philosopher Erino. Roosevelt once said, "No one can hurt you without your consent." Of course, this requires a realm that requires a great sense of inner security and self-awareness. Obviously, Lippi seems to be about to sublimate to that ideological realm.

The Sampdoria youth team at that time later walked out of Marco. Lanna, Maurizio. Gonz, Enriko. Chiesa and Gambarro, I'm afraid that no one who watches Serie A fans don't know them. A young team coach wants to turn those uncut "stones" like them into the "beautiful jade" of the first team in the future. It takes patience to wait for their transformation, and at this time, the Sampdoria first team has After going through the hands of several coaches, from Ulivieri to Bercerini, and later to Boskov, Lippi continued his helpless waiting until his belief finally changed.

In 1985, Lippi returned to his hometown of Toscana, where he really started from the lowest level. He started from Italy's fourth-level Pontedra, and then moved to Siena, Pistoise, Calarese, Cesena and Lucese respectively. This kind of drift has never been interrupted.

But it is this drift that has achieved Lippi's super ability to turn decay into magic.

In Italy, there is a famous saying: you can go to Naples for the rest of your life and die without regret.

Lippi came to the southern coastal city with this belief. At that time, the situation of the Naples club was very bad. Maradona was banned for drug use, and his departure also announced the end of the glorious era of Naples.

The team has also exhausted all its capital, exhausted its financial resources, and can't even afford the players' salaries. The team is on the verge of relegation. Banks and creditors have also issued an ultimatum. The Italian Football Association also threatened Naples to play the Serie B League next season if it can't solve the financial dispute, so that the team only has one choice left. The choice is to sell the star to maintain the normal operation of the team.

That summer, Zola and Kripa went to Parma, Gali went to Turin, and Carreka returned to Brazil. In the past, only the old players were Francini and Cladini. In the year of playing, there was almost only Ferrara. The team relied on loan from other teams, promotion from youth teams, and bought them at a low price from the lower league. Some players have barely pieced together a lineup that can play the game. The whole team is like a grass team, and the "class teacher" who leads this team is the newly emerging Lippi.

Although some people laughed at the strength of the team at the beginning of the season, by the middle of the season, all the mocking faces changed to surprise. The team not only did not fall into the quagmire of relegation, but became a favorable contender for the UEFA Cup.

Lippi arranged a defensive counterattack formation of 352 for the team. There are two people left in the front court to participate in the attack, one person in the backcourt as the central defender, and the others adopt man-to-man tactics. The players use active running and fierce struggle to make up for their personal ability. Every player is conscientious and conscientious on the court. Like a tribe defending territory, they unite to defend the reputation of the city of Naples. Players sometimes can't get wages periodically, but no one complains about it. Lippi's harmony is indispensable. Of course, this kind of thing is no stranger to him. Don't forget that he was in Sampdoria and Pi Stoise, he also let his unpaid teammates fight at ease, and that's the charm of the leader. And those bumpy and adventurous experiences have created such an extraordinary coach and his personality.

In this seemingly "not amazing" team, there is actually a golden phoenix hidden, and Ferrara is one of them. Lippi turned this fledgling and even a little irritable hope star into a mature and stable defensive leader who can play alone. The goalkeeper Tacriatra has also been honed into a enough to be with Pa Liuka is an excellent goalkeeper.

In the 93/94 season against Sampdoria, Lippi sent a man named Fabio. Cannavaro's players played, and a few years later he became the core of the Italian national team's defense. Fonsecca, who was frustrated in Cagliari, and Corini and Buso, who were depressed in Sampdoria, have regained their confidence here. Dicanio also experienced the joy of being trusted by the head coach and playing at ease here for the first time.

Although Maradona's departure made Naples fans sad, at least that season, this sadness was only emotional, because Lippi's performance in Naples should be described as a miracle. At least on the field, Lippi's team never let Fans have had the idea of "If Maradona was there", and after the season, people are talking about the magical coach Lippi and his incredible Naples team.

In the 1993/1994 season, Lippi led Naples to qualify for the UEFA Cup, thus ushering in a turning point in his coaching career. For this club in economic crisis, entering the UEFA Cup is more interesting than Maradona's incentive for the team to win.

However, Lippi did not lead the team to fight, because there is another larger empire that needs him to save, that is, Juventus, who has not been crowned for 8 years.

When an elegant teenager becomes a brave warrior, and when the "ugly duckling" grows into a beautiful "white swan", people who admire it will come uninvited. In the summer of 1994, rich families flocked, and Lippi got the opportunity to show himself on a larger stage. First, Inter Milan, but at that time, Lippi seemed to have a deep affection for Naples. He only wanted Naples to get out of the trough as soon as possible. He worked hard, felt good, and was willing to continue to stay here, international Seeing this, the Milan club gave up its intention to hire Lippi. However, the economic situation of the Naples club is so bad that it is difficult to provide enough support to Lippi, so Lippi is also very conflicted.

Just as Lippi was hesitant, he received a call from Moggi, the general manager of Juventus Club. However, Lippi was not too happy about it, because he understood that "it is as deep as the sea" and that it is not easy to coach Juventus, Italy's first green giant, and the big ball in the team There are many stars, and they are all famous, but they are just an unknown coach. It is still unknown whether they can convince these arrogant bigwigs.

But when Mogi unreservedly conveyed Juventus' difficulties and everyone's strong desire for the championship to Lippi, and repeatedly expressed the club's sincerity, Lippi's concerns disappeared, and he made up his mind to fall into the arms of the Bianconeri and go all out to play for Juventus. When he was defeated, Lippi, who was ordered to be in danger, boarded the flight to Turin with his assistant coach Bendroner and captain Ferrara when he was in Naples.

Since then, fans can see a gentleman with golden glasses, a cigar in his mouth and a silver-haired gentleman sitting on the coach's seat on the side of the Serie A stadium every Sunday. The title of silver fox began from then.

Lippi is indeed a gentleman, because it is difficult for people to see him shouting on the sidelines like Capello, grinning like Bersellini, using body language like Trapatoni, or squatting on the sidelines as indecently as Guidolin, and can't read the joy of victory on Lippi's face. The anxiety of deadlock and the frustration of failure can't be read, as if there is no nerve connection between his heart and face. He is always that kind of expression, to be precise, he looks confident. People can never figure out what his heart is thinking, as if he has found a way to defeat his opponent from the beginning. And this tewarm attitude makes the opponent more worried. His imperviousness is exactly what makes the opponent afraid.

Carefully observe the characteristics of each player under him and their first reaction when they encounter emergencies, and more accurately understand them. This is Lippi's brilliance as a coach. He tries his best to tap all the potential of the players and designs a set of suit that varies from person to person. In accordance with each player's training plan, the set in Naples was taken here, but at this time, Lippi was no longer following the rules and emotionally.

Lippi's arrival at Juventus is an adventure for both sides. Juventus used the same "star policy" as Inter. At that time, although Juventus was not as bad as Naples, it was impossible for a team with a glorious tradition to win the league for 8 years. Tolerable.

Lippi is famous for his boldness in Italy. He made a man named Del from Padua. Piero's 19-year-old child started and put the "fame fan" Baggio on the bench. When Baggio became famous in the 1990 World Cup, Lippi was still waiting for a job at home. At first, he dared to touch the "melancholy prince". I'm afraid no one dares to do it except Lippi, but no matter what your attitude towards him is, it is undeniable to use Del. Piero's replacement of Baggio is a good result, even if people can not admit the fresh "air" brought by Piero and the surprise brought to people, and the contribution that Piero brought to the team when he first arrived at Juventus. Today, Piero has become the most outstanding "masterpiece" of Lippi's coaching career in the club.

After patient persuasion of the players and a series of adjustments to the team, Lippi began a glorious period of time in Serie A and Juventus. God almost returned all the championship trophies owed to Juventus, and thus began a Serie A business myth of the three giants Lippi and Juventus.

After Lippi achieved great success in the club, in 2004, Lippi began a new and greater journey. He took over the whip of the Italian national team from Trapatoni. This was a new challenge for Lippi, because he was out of the European Cup Italy at that time. Lippi is no stranger to all this, because it is not the first time he has been appointed to the defeated army and has been ordered to be in danger.

In his club career, Lippi really doesn't need to prove anything. He needs to go to a new stage to write a new legend. People say that Lippi's Italian team is very similar to the one in 1982. Maybe this time, Lippi will really surprise people. Lippi is good at People who create miracles and glory, in fact, Italy is the favorite team to win the championship every World Series. It is their capital to have excellent players and rich experience in the competition, but they have never been able to win the championship.

In the summer of 2006, the Italian national team led by Lippi defeated Ghana in the 2006 World Cup group stage, drew with the United States, and then defeated the Czech Republic, which was coached by Bruckner, to qualify as the first in the group, and then they defeated Australia, Ukraine and the host Germany in a row.

Finally, Belgium, the biggest dark horse in this World Cup, will wait there.

In the face of Belgium, Lippi does not have too much burden in his heart. He admits that Belgium has indeed done a good job in this World Cup. Compared with Italy's smooth road to promotion, it is indeed valuable and a miracle that Belgium can reach this point.

However, in the semi-finals against Portugal, Manice made a fierce shovel and directly sent Degan to the hospital. Without Degan's Belgium, Lippi was not afraid.

But now Digan has come back and returned to the training camp in Belgium, which is troublesome!

Of course, Lippi is not afraid of Degan. Whether it is the player era or the coaching career, he has encountered too many strong enemies to count, but he always can't figure out about Degan.

Before that, Lippi had no experience of playing against Degan's leading team, but he knew almost everything about Degan, but Degan felt different every time he played, and he could always do something crazy.

Before the game with France, who would have thought that the weak Belgium could eliminate France led by Zidane, and before playing against Brazil, who would have thought that Degan could score three goals and leave five-star Brazil.

And they all held an injured leg and killed three super teams in a row. If Lippi had watched Japanese cartoons, he would definitely regard Digan as a cockroach who likes to burn the small universe. No matter how much he suffered, he could be revived in a blink of an eye.

"Ciro! What do you think of this!? Lippi was still expressionless and couldn't see what was on his mind.

The white hair is a little eye-catching. In the future, when Lippi led Guangzhou Evergrande to win the double championship and conquered Asia, some Chinese fans who worshipped him crazily said that every white hair in Lippi was a wonderful trick.

Listen!

The Lippi myth has become a grandson monkey, full of life-saving monkey hair!

But this whimsy can't help Lippi now. He really can't figure out what Degan is a beast.

Ferrara, who looks like Uncle Benshan, is the assistant coach promoted after Lippi joined the Italian national team. Hearing Lippi's voice, he couldn't help frowning: "Coach! I don't understand. According to reason, Degan's current physical condition must not be able to play. Maybe it's just a mystery made by Belgians!"

Lippi shook his head: "I don't think so. It doesn't make sense for them to do this!"

Lippi said and scratched his hair without a clue: "Ciro! Who do you think we should send to keep an eye on him if Degan can play?

Keep an eye on Degan!

This must be done. Whether Degan is injured or not, his threat is huge. Previously, the Brazilian team did not have anyone to keep an eye on Degan. As a result, he was stabbed by Degan three times in a row. Lippi doesn't want Italy to be under Degan's knife.

Lippi is also hesitant about who should be sent to keep an eye on Degan. If Degan is just a simple forward player, this is easy to do. Although Matrazi can't guarantee that Digan will not play much role, at least Digan will not play much, but the problem is that the scope of Digan's activities is too large to cover almost. The whole stadium.

And Degan can not only shoot by himself, but also pass the ball. Previously, it was only because of the poor shooting skills of other players in the Belgian team that Degan's assist ability was ignored.

In this way, Materazzi, who suffers some losses in speed, is not suitable. Cannavaro's speed is fine, but Cannavaro's height is a hard injury against Degan.

If Nesta can play, Nesta may be able to carry this crowd. Nesta and Degan are teammates in AC Milan and naturally know the characteristics of Degan.

It's a pity that Nesta was injured. Nesta was injured at the beginning of the World Cup, and now he can only become a spectator.

"Coach! I don't think we need to care so much about Degan! Even if he can play, his injury will definitely limit his performance, and the speed advantage will not be played.

Lippi heard this and suddenly woke up. His eyes burst into light and shook his head with a wry smile. If Ferrara hadn't reminded him, I guess he still couldn't figure out what to do. This was the first time he had encountered this situation in his coaching career. There was nothing he could do. The miracles that Digan made before gave him a shadow. The sound is really profound. I always feel that as long as Degan is on the field, he will definitely cause trouble for Italy, but he forgets that Degan is also an ordinary person, and he is also an ordinary person who is injured and even difficult to run: "Thank you! Chiro! I don't seem to have any problems now!"

Belgium is not a big threat except for a Degan. Although Lippi does not underestimate the enemy, it is still easy to defeat Belgium with the strength of the Italian team.

In particular, Belgium's morale will certainly be affected if the main players are injured.

Putting aside Digan's problem, Lippi planned the final lineup in his heart. Naturally, there is no doubt about the goalkeeper position. Amelia and Peruzi can't threaten Buffon's position at all. Zambrotta and Grosso on the back line are both good offense and defensive, and they are the best candidates to guard the two sides. Central defenders Materazzi and Cannavaro have shown enough tacit understanding in the previous airport game.

In terms of midfield, Pirlo and Gatuso serve as the midfielders, and Totti and Camoranesi are more flexible, especially Camoranesi, but Lippi's favorite player in Juventus and is good at playing two sides. Although Totti has not adjusted to the best since the start of the World Cup, For Italy, his presence can enrich the creative ability of the Italian midfield.

On the forward line, Lippi still prefers Tony, Yaquinta and Girardino. Although they have their own characteristics and strong strength, Yaquinta's scoring ability is too poor. Girardino is young and not enough to fight against the heavy responsibility of Italy's siege. As for Inzaghi, he came to Germany on the belt, more Comfort for veterans.

The main lineup has been determined in his heart, and Lippi is much more down-to-earth, and everything will have to wait for tomorrow's finals to begin.
