Legend of Fengshen

Chapter 82

The next morning, Zhang Yuan saw the text messages back. Some were from last night, and some were from today. My sister and Gu Lin said they would definitely watch the game. Anna wished him good luck and prayed that he could score goals. Mai Xuewen Said that he would go to the scene to watch the game with Docelia, Raiola said that you should not be excited and nervous, just like Serie B!

Can it be the same?Serie A is one of the five major leagues in Europe. It used to be a small World Cup. Zhang Yuan never thought that he could stand on the stage of Serie A when he was studying, but today he will have the opportunity to show his talent. .It has been more than 2 months since he transferred to Inter Milan, but today he has the opportunity to say to Serie A: "I am here!"

Livorno is a seaside city on the west coast of Italy. It is neither far nor close to Milan. The players from Inter Milan set off on the bus after breakfast, and most of them took a nap on the bus. He is used to traveling, but Zhang Yuan is not in the mood to sleep at all. He is thinking about the game in his head, imagining himself starting, because Mancini has not yet announced the list of 11 players for the starting lineup.

But he was thinking in vain, Mancini already had a conclusion in his mind, he has been unlucky recently, Inter Milan did not start the new season well, he also knows, but this does not mean that the reason is only him, injuries, Fatigue is an important reason. Before this game, Inter Milan's defense line Materazzi and Chivu continued to recover from injuries. In the midfield, French superstar Vieira was still recovering from injuries. These three are the absolute main players. The choice of defense is very difficult.

Livorno got off to a bad start this season. They were swept by Juventus 5:1 at the Turin Stadium in the first game, lost to Palermo 2:4 at home in the second game, and recovered in the third game away. A 1:1 draw with Genoa means that they only have one point now, and occupy the last three places with Siena and Empoli who have the same score. A weak opponent, even if he did a large area of ​​roller skating, Mancini felt that it should be taken for granted.

When getting out of the car, Mancini's assistant Mikhailovich announced the starting 11 list.

Goalkeeper: Cesar
Defenders: Maicon, Cordoba, Burdisso, Maxwell
Midfielders: Stankovic, Cambiasso, Zanetti, Cesar
Forwards: Ibrahimovic, Suyazo
Substitutes: Toldo, Jimenez, Zhang Yuan, Balotelli, Samuel, Rivas, Figo

After a break for lunch, Inter Milan arrived at Livorno's home stadium Armando Picchi to warm up. This stadium is named after Armando Picchi, a famous player in Livorno's history. An Inter Milan player in the big international era.

There are quite a few Livorno fans who came to watch the game today, and the entire stadium was full. Playing against giants is a major event for all underdogs in Serie A. The enthusiasm of the fans of the home team is very high. This is a common psychology. The strength of the team is not good, but I still hope that my team can upset the strong team and step on it, seeking a little pleasure.

After warming up and returning to the locker room, Mancini explained the tactical arrangement. Everyone listened carefully. Mancini’s arrangement was very thorough. He asked the players to stabilize the start first, not rush to attack, and control the midfield situation. After all It is Livorno's home court, and it is not ruled out that Livorno will grab the start.

After explaining the tactics, there was not much left until the start of the game at [-]:[-] pm. The substitute players sat on the bench first, and the starters waited in the player tunnel to play.

Zhang Yuan and Balotelli sat next to the substitute goalkeeper Toldo. Since Cesar came, Toldo has been the gold medal substitute of Inter Milan. In fact, Zhang Yuan thinks that Toldo is still very capable. Yes, but Toldo himself is reluctant to leave Inter Milan, and he may also accept his role as a substitute.

The game started, and Livorno coach Fernando Orsi formed a 433 formation at his home court today.

Goalkeeper: Amelia

Defenders: Pawan, Gallant, Konezevic, Barelli
Midfielders: Przetti, Loviso, Dweize
Forwards: Pasquale, Diamanti, Bogdani

At their home court, Livorno, who has only one point, still seems to want to score points at his home court.

At 9 o'clock in the evening, Zhang Yuan's sisters, Zhang Caiying and Li Jun, were sitting in front of the TV watching the game. They were not interested in football games, but their younger brother was likely to appear, so they had to watch anyway.

The rebroadcast camera scanned the faces of the starting players, and Zhang Caiying asked, "Hey, it's not too far away!"

"Why are you so anxious, he is a substitute, not a starter!" Li Jun still knew a little bit.

At this time, the voice of the commentator Duan came from the TV: "Everyone, welcome to watch the 07-08 Serie A season. This game is the defending champion Inter Milan's away game against Livorno. Previously, Inter Milan had two wins and one tie with 7 points. Ranked second, behind Roma with 9 points, Livorno ranked first with 1 losses and [-] draw. Today I will explain the game with you is Director Zhang!"

"Hello everyone, audience friends in front of the TV!" Director Zhang greeted the audience friends in front of the TV.

"We just got the rosters of the two teams. Today, the Chinese player Zhang Yuan also entered the roster for the Inter Milan match, but he is not a starter but a substitute. We will see if he has a chance to play later!" said Duan .

"There should still be a lot of chances. Recently, Inter Milan's players played double matches for a week, and Mancini should make a rotation!" Director Zhang analyzed.

"Well, in the new season, Inter Milan is facing the pressure of fighting on the third line. Rotation is an inevitable choice. Facing Livorno Mancini, it is indeed possible to let young players play. Well, the game has officially started, let's introduce the two sides first. The starting 11."

Gu Lin is not an Inter Milan fan, but Zhang Yuan went to Inter Milan, and he received a QQ message from Zhang Yuan. He also paid close attention to this game, so he turned on the computer early to watch the game.

The roommates all knew that Zhang Yuan was his good friend, so they didn't believe it at first. How could it be such a coincidence that you and Zhang Yuan could still be classmates and buddies, but Zhang Yuan called the dormitory to find Gu Lin in person once. Now everyone knows, it turns out to be true.With the confidence of an annual salary, Zhang Yuan is not stingy with the phone bill now, and can occasionally talk to relatives and friends on the phone. QQ chats are not as authentic as phone calls.

The roommates all watched the game with Gu Lin, but they couldn't see Zhang Yuan for the time being, because the domestic signal started from the starting players entering the field, and the cameras didn't scan from the bench.

Mancini's worries were correct, and his worries were quickly realized. In just 1 minute of the start of the game, Livorno used a cross from the side to break through the gate of Inter Milan.

In the first minute of the match, the Livorno team made a cross from the right, and Cordoba actually fell to the top. Livorno midfielder Daniel Dewiese made a high-speed breakthrough and shot past the goalkeeper Cesar. 1-1, Livorno Shocking lead for Team Wono!

Mancini looked unbelievable on the sidelines, and he was not the only one who was unbelievable. The players on the Inter Milan bench did not expect that Inter Milan, which was playing away in just one minute, fell behind.

Zhang Yuan came to his senses and felt that something was wrong. Grandma, if it was Inter Milan 3:0, maybe Mancini would have sent himself on the field early. Anyway, the overall situation has been determined, and it is time to give young people a chance to exercise. Now Inter Milan is 0:1 behind. With Mancini's character, he will definitely trust the veteran. The chances of him and Balotelli are slim.

He prayed silently in his heart, hurry up, brothers hurry up and overtake the score!

His prayers were useless. Inter Milan, who had scored a goal, seemed a little flustered. Mancini used the combination of Burdisso and Cordoba. The height of the two central defenders is not high, Burdisso is 183, and Cordoba is only 173. In fact, Cordoba's jumping is quite good, but Livorno's high center forward Bogdani has 192, a full Biko Cordoba is nearly 20 centimeters taller, with height and weight. Cordoba is really a bit embarrassed to play against him. Livorno coach Orsi obviously studied the situation of Inter Milan in detail before the game, and specifically looked for Bogdani. The high point caused trouble for Inter Milan, and Inter Milan was a little embarrassed by Livorno's rushing tactics.

But fortunately, after a few minutes, Inter Milan finally stood on its heels. Mancini asked Burdisso and Cordoba to flank Bogdani, so that Bogdani faced the interference of the two central defenders, and the goal of the header The power was greatly reduced, and Inter Milan gradually took control of the situation on the field, and frequently began to attack Livorno's defense.

Since Orsi chose to attack, it will be more difficult to defend. After all, Livorno players have the same ability and quality, and their midfielders cannot be required to be able to attack and defend well like Inter Milan.

No. In the 17th minute, Maxwell dribbled the ball into the Livorno penalty area and was shoveled by the opposing player. The referee not only failed to award a penalty, but also gave Maxwell a yellow card, saying that Maxwell flopped. Mancini was furious on the sidelines. Almost cursed, the Inter Milan fans who came from afar in the stands also booed collectively.

But they couldn't change anything, the referee still played the card firmly, Maxwell was aggrieved, and was pulled away from the referee by Zanetti, Zanetti himself stepped forward to communicate with the referee, saying that even if the ball was not a penalty Maxwell It wasn't a flop on purpose either. The referee told Zanetti that Maxwell was a flop and he could see it clearly.

The players on the pitch could never speak against the referee, and the final result was that Zanetti was defeated, and the whole team could only accept the fact that Maxwell had a yellow card.
