Chapter 422 Double Line Victory

Alaves has no physical ability, no fighting spirit, and the substitution quota has been used up. If any variables that benefit them are lost, the miracle that belongs to them will not be possible. It is their miracle that Inter Milan did not score the fifth goal in the last three or four minutes.

After three minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game. The first round of the eighth of the League Cup final ended. After a goal battle between the two teams, Inter Milan defeated Alaves 4:3 away in the second half, laying a solid foundation for advancing to the quarterfinals.

After the game, the focus of the reporter's interview was on Jiang Mu and the locker room, because they wanted to know what caused such a big reversal.

Jiang Mu told the reporter that this so-called shocking reversal is actually nothing, because Inter Milan's strength is stronger than Alaves, which will not change at home and away. The reason why they are behind in the first half is mainly because the light enemy and the opponent overdraw their physical strength in advance. In the second half, Alavis's physical ability can't keep up, international Milan put away the heart of underesthe enemy and went all out, and the goal was completed.

Jiang Mu's reason is easy to understand, but his explanation makes reporters not very satisfied. In their opinion, this is Jiang Mu's repeated magical password, which can't be so simple. So the reporters tried their best to find out what happened in the locker room from the players.

The players were strictly forbidden to tell the secrets of the locker room casually, so they kept silent about the topic of the locker room. In order to satisfy the fans' curiosity, the reporters began to weave various strange statements, such as Jiang Mu's tricks in the locker room. Jiang Mu became the second hair dryer, and the locker room was furious. The player's fighting spirit, and even Jiang Mu's ridiculous statement that he used Oriental Qigong to help Inter Milan players recover their physical fitness appeared in the TV camera.

Although these words have added a lot of mystery to Jiang Mu and further improved Jiang Mu's fame and personal charm, Jiang Mu still denied it and hoped that the media would not speculate. The dressing room is a private space belonging to the team. He does not want the media to spy on and expose it here. A living thing.

Compared with Inter Milan's six-game winning streak, Parma and Roma, the two Serie A brothers who participated in the quarter-eighth final of the UEFA Cup, are a little worse. Roma, the leader of Serie A, was popular to win before the game, but in their own home court, they were easily defeated by Premier League giants Liverpool 2:0. Basically, there is no hope of getting out of the line, and it is not a big surprise.

Although Parma is an away game, their opponent is Eindhoven of the Dutch League. Many media think that this game is likely to be a draw, but as a result, Eindhoven defeated Parma 2:1 and took the lead on the road to promotion.

In the UEFA Cup, the three teams in Serie A lost two and one draw. In the Champions League, the two teams in Serie A also did not perform well. Inter Milan's rival AC Milan were forced to draw 1:1 at home by Paris Saint-Germain, with two draws and one win in three games. The group qualifying is not optimistic.

Last season's Serie A champion Lazio was worried about internal and external troubles. After Zoff came to power, he could only take care of the country, and he did not have the ability to take care of it in the Champions League. They lost 2:3 away to La Liga giants Real Madrid. They lost all three games and basically had no hope of qualifying.

In the other five UEFA Cup quarter-finals, the Bundesliga team is a lover of peace. Kaiserslautern drew 0:0 with Slavia Prague, Stuttgart 0:0 and Vigo Celta of La Liga; La Liga teams are both in the Champions League and the League Cup. Now excellent, Barcelona won a 1:0 victory over AEK Athens, Balleccano made a big surprise, and lost 4:1 to Bordeaux in Ligue 1. Porto, the only strong team in the non-mainstream league, defeated Ligue 1 Nantes 3:1, clearing the way for promotion.

For Inter Milan, the bad news is that their possible quarter-final opponent Barrecano is in full shape. The dark horse has overtook Alaves to defeat a dark horse. Later, they will face another dark horse in La Liga. Inter Milan can't be optimistic.

After playing Alaves away, Inter Milan will immediately challenge Naples away after coming back. Naples, which used to dominate Serie A with the king Maradona, is now the future. Up to now, they have only won three games this season, and the points are only a little stronger than Barry. For them, they have just arrived halfway. He They have begun to fight for relegation.

In the face of a team that aspires to relegation, it is not easy for Inter Milan to win the weekly double match. Before the game, Napoli coach Mondonic said that the relegation battle in Naples has begun. His goal is to grab points. If he can grab one point, he can grab three points, he can grab three points, even if Inter Milan is as strong. They will not surrender their guns obediently.

Naples has won the Serie A championship twice. In the 1986-1987 and 1989-1990 seasons, the Blues, led by the king Maradona and supplemented by famous players such as Kaleka, Ferrara, Di Napoli and Alman, won the Serie A throne twice. With the departure of the king Maradona, Naples also fell quickly. In the 1997-1998 season, they were relegated to the second division. Although they soon upgraded again, the glory of that year had already been blown away by the rain and wind. Now they are fighting for relegation every year. This season, they invited Czech coach Zeman, who is good at offensive football, to coach, but this season Zeman's team's record was bad and fell into the relegation circle early. Finally, in early November, the unbearable Naples club fired Zeman and invited the calm coach Mondonic, but Mondonic was not fast. Turning around quickly, Naples is still hovering in the relegation circle.

In the first cycle of the league, Inter Milan once defeated Naples 3:1, but all four goals were scored by Inter Milan. Sedorf was disliked by the new coach Tardelli for scoring an own goal, but Naples' away game was not unpleasant for Inter Milan, Napoli Sao Paulo Stadium is the most enthusiastic stadium in Serie A. It is one of the most horrible stadiums for Napoli players and the visiting team. Even when Naples was relegated, São Paulo Stadium maintained more than 50,000 fans, which formed a completely different contrast to Inter Milan's Meacha, in Tard. In the Li era, the number of Meacha, which could accommodate 80,000 people, used to be less than 10,000.

At the São Paulo Stadium, Naples's record against Inter Milan also has an advantage. In all 63 home games, Naples has won Inter Milan 29 times, while Inter Milan has only won 18 times. At home, Naples has a lot of psychological advantage over Inter Milan.

Jiang Mu knows this better than anyone else. Before the game, he repeatedly warned the players not to be careless. He must keep in mind the lesson of Alaves in the first half. It is not that he can equalize and overtake every time he falls behind.

Jiang Mu's words played a role this time. The players did not dare to be careless in the game and were very serious, but the weekly double match had a great impact on Inter Milan. Although Jiang Mu rotated the lineup, the players who played the League Cup in the middle of the week still accounted for the majority, and the substitute players came up regardless of the tacit understanding. There is a certain gap between degree and strength, and the game is still very difficult.

The match between Naples and Inter Milan attracted 78,000 fans to watch the game at the São Paulo Stadium. In the cheering of the home fans, the players of Naples seemed very excited. They made full use of their physical advantages to compete with Inter Milan in the whole game and the current core of Inter Milan. Wu Pirlo was staring at the whole court, making Inter Milan very passive, and it became very difficult to pass and control the ball.

It took 32 minutes for Inter Milan to create its first threatening attack.

Although Pirlo has been being watched, Sidov and Yugovicci have the ability to take a good kick. Just when Naples was forced to grab the fiercest, Sidorf turned his back to the goal of Naples to catch the ball, but he received the ball and turned around and passed on the back to help Inter Milan's striker Rekoba get a single shot.

Recoba beat off all the defenders at high speed and pushed the far corner against the goalkeeper Fontana.

Recoba's shot passed the goalkeeper Fontana, but because of his lack of strength, the ball rolled in front of the goal line and was relieved by the high-speed pursuit of Napoli defender Kiroka.

Then Inter Milan gradually gained the upper hand, but under the desperate resistance of Naples, the two strikers, Rekoba and Hakansuk, did not get a better shot in the first half, and the two sides shook hands.

Naples launched a fierce attack at the beginning of the second half. In the 54th minute of the game, Naples's Brazilian midfielder Matuzalen shot vigorously 30 meters away from the goal. The ball flew into the gate like a cannonball. Inter Milan goalkeeper Frey saved with all his strength and still could not stop the cold shot.

The score became 1:0.

Matuzalen, who scored the long-range world wave, was a little excited. After scoring the goal, he took off his jersey to celebrate. However, he forgot the new rule. He took off his clothes to celebrate the goal and had to get a yellow card, let alone remembered that he had taken a yellow card because of a foul. The happy and sad Brazilian received two yellow cards and was punished. Out of the field.

Originally, Inter Milan had a certain advantage, but did not turn the advantage into a victory. Matuzalen's end gave Inter Milan a chance. The dominant Nerazzurri counterattacked and made many threats in the penalty area of Naples. Hakansuk and Rekoba each had a goalpost that did not score.

At this time, Jiang Mu replaced the old Zamorano and Vieri, replaced Hakansuk and Dibbiao, and played three strikers to attack Naples' defense.

Jiang Mu's substitution effect was excellent. Previously, Zamorano, the striker who scored the most goals in Naples, continued his good luck. He broke through the door of Naples for the fifth time in three minutes, equalizing the score for Inter Milan. Then Inter Milan seemed to have broken the window paper, and Vieri and Recoba entered one after another. In the end, Inter Milan defeated Naples 3:1 away and won their six-game winning streak in Serie A.

In several other games, Juventus, Lazio and Roma all defeated their opponents 1-0. The score gap between the two sides did not narrow, but because AC Milan was tied by Bologna, Inter Milan threw out two points from the same city's sworn enemy.
