Chapter 511 Weird Opponent

The impact of winning the UEFA Cup on Inter Milan is obvious. First of all, more and more Inter Milan fans come to the training base. Every day, it feels like a live game, which makes the players very excited. The coaches do not need supervision and supervision, and the players will train hard to win the ball. Applause and applause from fans.

Secondly, the players' money is infinitely bright. After winning the championship, Chairman Morati was very happy. There is no shortage of a thick bonus and main substitutes. More importantly, advertisers frequently patronize, with the extension of the contract and signing of a new contract without a contract, most players have made extra money.

Of course, what makes Jiang Mu happiest is the spirit of the players and a qualitative improvement. The players have a champion temperament that is not arrogant and not discouraged, whether in confrontation training or in daily life, which is very important for Inter Milan's later league championship.

In the last four games of Inter Milan, there are two hard bones, one against Parma, one against Lazio, and all after the UEFA Cup final. This is a major test for Inter Milan. They have played one more UEFA Cup than Lazio and Rome, which consumes a lot of physical energy. Once they lose, it is very likely. They will be caught up by Roma, who is two points behind, and the players are in such a good mental state that they may make up for their physical shortcomings.

Inter Milan Club is very satisfied with Jiang Mu's work. Although the league championship has not been determined, the Champions League seats can be guaranteed. According to the current momentum of Inter Milan, it is also a high probability of winning the league championship. Therefore, before the league is over, Moratti let Ogliari and Jiang Mu. He wanted to give him a raise and extend the contract, but Jiang Mu unexpectedly didn't agree. He thought it would be better to talk about a raise at the end of this season and renew the contract at the end of the next season, which would be better.

Although Jiang Mu's refusal surprised Morati a little, Jiang Mu was originally a maverick, and Moratti was not angry. In this critical period of winning the championship, everything should be done according to Jiang Mu's idea. Since Jiang Mu does not value the increase in salary now, of course they are not willing to do more. Make Jiang Mu dissatisfied.

During this period, not only the players have been favored by advertisers, but Jiang Mu, as an idol coach, is also valued by the Italian automobile and fashion industry. Jiang Mu has been invited to endorse. Milan TV also strongly invited Jiang Mu to participate in their TV programs. However, in order to set an example for the team, Jiang Mu asked Feng Ke to make these invitations. Please put it all back, when to win the championship, and when to think about these things.

Jiang Mu's method is a little tricky, but now Jiang Mu is really too popular. As long as Jiang Mu agrees, they will be willing to wait for another month. At that time, if Jiang Mu leads Inter Milan to win the league championship, his reputation will only be louder.

As the head coach, Jiang Mu's training tasks are actually much lighter than the players, but he can postpone these things that are related to fame and money. Naturally, the players are embarrassed to spend too much time on business entertainment and reporter interviews. Like Jiang Mu, they also push these business entertainments to the championship.

Win the league championship!

Now it has become the biggest common dream of every Inter Milanese. For this dream, Inter Milanese have worked hard for 11 years, and now they have once again seen the hope of winning the championship.

There are still four rounds, two points ahead of the second-round Roma. As long as Inter Milan has three wins and one draw, even if Rome wins all the matches, Inter Milan will be successfully crowned, because their goal difference and each other's record are stronger than that of Rome. With the same points, Inter Milan leads.

Previously, Inter Milan has won 16 consecutive games, no defeat, no draw. Now almost everyone thinks that Inter Milan will fall in a certain game, but no one knows when Inter Milan will fall.

Before that, the fans had been optimistic about Rome, favored Juventus, and recognized AC Milan, but these teams were all wiped out under the iron hooves of Inter Milan, and there was almost no resistance. It was not as threatening as the dark horse Atlanta to Inter Milan.

Now the task of blocking Inter Milan falls on Parma and Lazio.

In the first round, Parma was swept away by Inter Milan 7:0 because of careless careless. This hearty victory also opened a new chapter for Inter Milan and played a pivotal role in Jiang Mu's footing on Inter Milan. So once Jiang Mu joked in an interview with Vieri's girlfriend Canaris that he was grateful to Parma for bringing Inter Milan out of the abyss so quickly.

However, you can't think how bad Parma's strength is because Parma was swept by Inter Milan with 7 goals in the last round. In fact, before that 7:0, Inter Milan and Parma had an intersection in the Coppa Italia. At that time, Parma easily defeated Inter Milan 6:1, so Parma was with Jiang Mu's international When Milan was against each other, it was so careless that it indirectly created Jiang Mu's magical reputation in Inter Milan.

In terms of the strength on the card, the gap between Inter Milan and Parma is not big, and the two teams are not much different in terms of status. In terms of physical fitness, Parma is definitely much better than Inter Milan, but Parma has changed two coaches after the first match with Jiang Mu, and the players are in cohesion and tactics. It is definitely not as proficient as Inter Milan.

Parma and Inter Milan are almost the same. They changed three coaches in a season. First, Massalani was forced out of class by Jiang Mu. Then Saki, who took office, was very powerful and took Parma and also had a good record, but he was not in good health. He could only be a firefighting player. In February, Saki took the initiative to resign and left After opening Parma, Parma invited the former Cagliari coach Ulivieeri to take over, but now Parma is in good shape and currently ranks fifth in the league. If Juventus is not careful, it is likely to be kicked out of Parma for a place in the Champions League.

Parma's new head coach Ulivieri is a very strange person. He wears a cashmere short coat when he encounters key games in spring, summer, autumn and winter, because he thinks this short coat is his mascot.

Many people in football have their own mascots or taboos, but Ulivieri is almost sick in this regard.

In the 1995-96 season, Ulivieri led the Bologna team, which was still in the second division, to fight for promotion. On the eve of the away game against Cesena on May 12, 1996, he rummaged through the box and found this cashmere coat to put on. Others were surprised and asked him if he was crazy, but he replied, "Isn't it just sweating? Don't the players sweat on the court?"

In this battle of escalating relations, Vicenza fell behind 1-2 in the 80th minute, but in the end, they scored two goals in a row, turned defeat into victory, and finally advanced to the first place. Since then, Uliviere has used this cashmere coat as a magic weapon to defeat the enemy.

After taking over as Parma's head coach, Ulivieri's mascot also brought him good luck. As he said, "Parma has been smooth since I put on this jacket." In 13 games, 9 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss, the record is only worse than that of Inter Milan led by Jiang Mu. It seems that this cashmere coat has a great effect on Ulivieri.

Before the match between Inter Milan, Ulivieri found out his cashmere coat and showed his mascot in an interview with reporters, and explained to the reporter: "Everyone has their own eccentricity, and I can also have eccentricity, can't I? In this world, there are some things that we don't know. This mascot makes me feel safe and confident. Whenever I wear it, I can generate infinite power.

Ulivieri expressed his respect and awe for the powerful enemy who is about to come to Parma. "Inter Milan is undoubtedly the most powerful team in Europe. They have a steady defense, a sharp attack, and a strong will. It is not easy to defeat them, so I will find my mascot and hope he It can bring miracles to Parma.

However, Ulivieri did not agree with the outside world's statements about Parma's revenge and blocking. He said, "We pursue victory, but not for revenge. The hatred has long passed. Previously, we beat them 6:1, and they beat us 7:0. This is normal. The football game is like this, and we will not We have our own goals to help who block whom. We want to enter the Champions League, which is related to the team's profits. We must work hard for this, so defeating Inter Milan is our task, not for anything else. I hope the media will not hype up these nonsense reasons.

In Jiang Mu's view, Uliwieri's behavior is almost the same as that of the superstitious old man and woman in rural China. He believes that these things may bring some psychological help to Uliwieri and Parma, but he never believes that the magical power of that cashmere coat.

However, Jiang Mu understood Uliwieri's behavior in public. He said, "Of course, I won't wear a cashmere coat at a high temperature of more than 30 degrees, and I can't even wear a suit. I don't believe that this will have any impact on the game, but I firmly support Mr. Ulivieri wearing sheep. I will support the velvet coat, even if he wears armor. This is his freedom. Parma is very different from the 7:0 Parma. It is impossible to reproduce the big victory at that time this time. However, we will definitely win this game, even if the final score is 1:0.

In this round, Inter Milan's opponent is Hard Parma, while Lazio's opponent is Udinese, and Rome's opponent is Bari, all middle and downstream teams. For them, this round is their best opportunity to grab points. In the next round, Lazio and Inter Milan have a direct dialogue. And Rome will fight against AC Milan, which is very variable. If this round can equalize or overtake the score, it will have a huge impact on the pattern of the whole game.

So before the game, Lazio's coach Zoff and Roma's head coach Capello clearly supported Parma. Juventus also said that they would poach Inter Milan's midfield core Pirlo and center Vieri, putting pressure on Inter Milan, hoping to crush Inter Milan, who had just finished the UEFA Cup final.

However, Inter Milan coach Jiang Mu was not afraid. Before the game, Jiang Mu said that he would take all the remaining four rounds of the league and win the first league championship in 11 years.
