Super Marshal

The score of the first half finally ended with 3-0, and Inter Milan almost won the game ahead of schedule.

The entire San Siro stadium was filled with the shouts and cheers of Inter Milan fans, and the smell of gunpowder in the air disappeared, replaced by the atmosphere of celebration.

Almost everyone has already sentenced AC Milan to death.

Berlusconi sat on his seat, motionless. Compared with the smiling face before the opening, it seemed to be a completely different person. He was stingy to show even a little bit of his most charming smile in Italy. Let everyone around feel like sitting on pins and needles, not to mention how uncomfortable it is.

On the contrary, not far away, Moratti grinned from ear to ear, kept standing up and walking around, chatting and laughing with friends around him, anyone could read the ecstasy in his heart from his face .

After holding back for more than ten years, it is finally a shame.

The zero-to-three game of last season is just around the corner, but tonight it was a three-to-zero match, and it may even be higher.

Is there anything more comforting in the world than this?

But Moratti's smile and laughter, in the eyes of Berlusconi, don't mention how hot and harsh they are.

"Tell Ancelotti to score no matter what!" Berlusconi said in a deep voice.

If he was really beaten 3-0 by Inter Milan, what face would he have to meet the fans of AC Milan?

At that time, the fans' saliva might swallow him up.

You know, in Italian politics, football fans are a huge force that should not be underestimated, especially during election campaigns.

Didn't Berlusconi gain momentum by becoming the master of AC Milan back then, and became the leader of Italy in one fell swoop?

Now, reelection is imminent, if the away game loses badly, wouldn't all his previous efforts be for naught?

Galliani looked at his boss, thought about Ancelotti again, and finally made up his mind, reminding: "In the current situation, I'm afraid the main thing is to defend. Let's stabilize our position first."

Berlusconi glanced at Galliani unkindly, but finally he didn't have an attack, and snorted coldly, sulking.

Seeing this, Galliani knew that he had listened to his advice, so he stopped entangled in this topic.

"Actually, we really have to admit that the Inter Milan team under Gao Han's coaching is completely different from before. There have been radical changes. Whether it is team morale, cohesion, or overall strength, it is far better than before. Any Inter Milan in the past ten years, they have become the most competitive team in Italy."

Although Berlusconi was angry, he was not stupid at all, and he trusted his right-hand man very much. Therefore, when he heard that Galliani gave such a high evaluation to Inter Milan under the coach of Gao Han, he was shocked.

Could it be that Inter Milan is really that strong?

How long has it been?

Even counting from when Gao Han first took over Inter Milan, it has only been four or five months now. Can he really turn this star black hole into the strongest team in Serie A in such a short period of time?

"Not long ago, Moggi told me that Inter Milan should be stopped no matter what."

As soon as Galliani said this, Berlusconi frowned tightly and looked around vigilantly.

Maybe it was because he couldn't stand the atmosphere just now, including the mayor of Milan, everyone around him didn't sit down, or went to meet Moratti, or went to the VIP rest area, which made Berlusconi feel relieved Come.

"He's crazy!" Berlusconi yelled angrily.

"This is related to his core interests." Galliani said.

Moggi's core interests are not only in Juventus, but also in his brokerage empire.

Although it was said to the outside world that his son was in charge of the brokerage company, everyone knew that without Moji's backing, little Moji would be able to support such a huge brokerage kingdom? Can he make Zambrotta, Buffon, Camoranesi and many other popular Italian internationals switch to him?

"If it really makes Inter Milan rise, our life will be difficult." Galliani said helplessly.

Italian football has always had serious internal strife, such as the North-South dispute. The southern teams headed by Rome and Lazio have always been incompatible with the northern teams headed by the Milan duo and Juventus.

But in fact, within the two major forces in the south and the north, the situation is also the same.

Needless to say, Lazio and Rome, Inter Milan and AC Milan are civil wars in the same city. The relationship between Inter Milan and Juventus is also known as the Italian derby, and there are also grievances and grievances.

In the past few years, Juventus and AC Milan have formed a sacred alliance and established a strategic partnership, not only suppressing the southern teams led by Roma and Lazio, but also suppressing Inter Milan.

From the 1990 to 1991 seasons, after Sampdoria won the Serie A championship, a total of 14 league championships have been won, except for the 1999-2000 season and the 00-01 season at the turn of the century, which were consecutively won by the Roman duo. In addition to winning the championship in two years, the remaining twelve championships were all collected by the Holy League, and the two teams won six championships each.

There is no doubt that the past fourteen years have been the most prosperous and glorious fourteen years of Serie A, and they are also the fourteen years under the rule of the Holy League.

But now, the Holy League is no longer monolithic, and the middle and lower reaches of Serie A have also begun to resist.

In the past few years, the Holy League has always been the most powerful person in the Serie A professional league, but in the two years after the turn of the century, with the rise of the southern Roman duo, the southern team led by Sensi began to pursue the right to speak within the league. This led to the 2002 alliance chairman election taking several months.

Although Galliani was successfully elected in the end, the hatred between the two sides intensified. Roma chairman Sensi even threatened that Roma would refuse to participate in the new season of Serie A together with eight football clubs. At that time, it caused an uproar all over the world.

But this is just the beginning.

In 2004, Galliani once again fought for the re-election of the chairman of the professional league, but led by the chairman of Fiorentina de la Valle, he successfully united 25 Serie A teams including Inter Milan, Palermo, Cagliani, Atlanta and Chievo. Teams from the Serie B League formed an anti-Canada alliance.

According to the professional league election rules, a total of 42 Serie A and Serie B teams have voting rights. To be elected successfully, they must get more than 28 votes. However, in the election, three consecutive times, Galliani won all the votes. Only twenty-one votes.

Ironically, there are twenty or so blank tickets each time.

Everyone knows that this is the silent protest of the opponents.

Finally, the Holy Alliance had to choose to make concessions. In the March 2005 elections, Palermo Chairman Zamparini was elected as the Executive Standing Committee, with the power to limit the Chairman, and Galliani was re-elected.

Anyone can see that the Holy Alliance can no longer cover the sky with one hand in the professional league.

However, Fiorentina, the leader of the opposition, quickly paid a heavy price. In the Serie A field, the referees almost killed Viola, which also made the Holy League vent their anger.

Opposition forces of the professional league are gradually rising, and the outside world is also not calm. From the clean foot movement at the beginning of the century to the Genoa incident last year, coupled with the intervention of the Naples Prosecutor's Office, the opposition has realized that the time is approaching, and the Holy League is everywhere. was hampered.

But at this time, Mo Ji still wants to deal with Gao Han?

"In my opinion, Moggi has been used to being arrogant and domineering in the past few years, and he can't see the situation clearly anymore!" Berlusconi shook his head with a sneer after hearing Galliani's words, but did not explain in depth.

He can understand many things that he can understand without talking about them, and he still can't understand things that he can't understand no matter how many things are said.

"What Moji is going to do, we don't control it, and we don't participate in it, you...do you understand what I mean?"

Let Berlusconi's eyes stare, Galliani felt a hair, nodded immediately.

Although in the eyes of outsiders, the Italian prime minister is simply a typical unreliable model, but in Galliani's view, he is not simple at all.

May I ask, can a simple person survive in the smoky political and business circles of Italy all year round?

…………

The second half of the game restarted, and AC Milan adjusted the lineup during the intermission.

Ancelotti replaced veteran Maldini with right back Simic. The latter was injured, and his performance in this game was not satisfactory. He was replaced at halftime, probably out of safety consider.

Stam returned to the position of central defender, partnered with Nesta, and Simic served as the team's right back.

This adjustment of AC Milan has stabilized the defense, especially Stam, who returned to the central defender and performed very well.

This also once again cites the views of the outside world. Stam is still not suitable for being pulled to the wing, but should be a central defender.

Gao Han did not make adjustments during the intermission. Inter Milan's second half still continued the tactical play of the first half.

The Inter Milan fans at the Meazza Stadium are also satisfied with the progress of the game. They avenged last season with 3-0, and it is difficult for them to put forward higher demands on the team.

Because of this, the atmosphere in the stadium was a bit slack compared to the first half, and no one noticed some details.

For example, on the bench of Inter Milan, people began to go out to warm up frequently, including a tall, dark-skinned young player. He looked different from other African players in that he was not very strong, but rather thin. Gives people a feeling that there is not much physical strength to fight against.

Like other substitute players, this young player also ran to the side to warm up, but unlike others, he did not return to the bench seat after warming up, but was called to his side by the head coach Gao Han .

I saw him respectfully attached to Gao Han, listening to the head coach's instructions, nodding his head non-stop, as if agreeing to something, and then nodded heavily, clenched his right fist, as if to Promise something.

Later, I saw Gao Han patted him on the shoulder with a smile, and sent him to the fourth official on the sidelines.

Soon, the fourth official held up his number plate.

"In the 61st minute, Inter Milan made the first substitution adjustment of the game."

"We saw that Figo was replaced."

"The veteran played very well in this game and is also one of Inter Milan's best players this season, but he has started many games in a row in the past, and he seems to be a little tired. The team is now sure of winning, Gao Han At this time, it is reasonable to replace him and rest."

"Let's see Gao Han replaced Figo, the substitute player is..."

"From Côte d'Ivoire, Africa, Yaya Toure is a 22-year-old midfielder."

"According to the news we received from Inter Milan, Gao Han is very optimistic about this young midfielder. Now that he is playing, he should also intend to cultivate him. After all, no one has the opportunity to play in such an important game."

But when the live TV camera showed Gao Han on the sidelines, everyone clearly saw that he showed a smile of anticipation.
