The Champions League clash with Chelsea has a big impact on Inter.
After this game, Inter's players' physical strength was seriously consumed. After the war, their spirit was suddenly relaxed. In addition, goalkeeper Toldo was old and old. In the weekend away game against Udinese, Inter's performance was very poor. Finally, they managed to draw 2-2 with the goals of Pandev and Gao Xiaodong.
After this battle, the Rome team with full stamina quietly caught up, they were only 8 points away from Inter Milan, and the suspense of the league title rose again.
However, in the shooter list, Gao Xiaodong scored 21 goals, 3 goals ahead of second place Milito, and continued to expand his advantage.
After this battle, the national team started the game. Although it was only a warm-up match, in order to prepare for the world cup in South Africa, the major national teams were very serious. In order to get the opportunity to play in the summer world cup, no one dared to be absent, let alone slack off.
In the first and second tier teams of Inter Milan, 13 international players have returned home to participate in the competition. Gao Xiaodong, the most famous and popular player, is the only player in the main team of Inter Milan who does not have the task of playing for the national team.
Gao Xiaodong is still not a member of the national team. Of course, it's not that Gao Xiaodong's strength is not enough. Now Gao Xiaodong is as famous as park Zhixing in Asia. In terms of strength and popularity, he just lacks a Champions League title.
Gao Xiaodong was not selected for the national team, mainly because now the Chinese domestic football field is carrying out a vigorous anti-counterfeiting and anti Mafia special action, two leaders and two vice presidents have been arrested, the former president has been investigated, more than a dozen senior football association officials, football owners, several well-known referees, including the Chinese Golden whistle army, seven or eight international players, including those who won the 2002 World Cup All of them have been arrested. Even national team coach Gao Bo is under investigation. The Chinese football world is full of chicken feathers, and there is no one to organize the warm-up match for the Chinese team that did not reach the world cup in South Africa.
It's good for both Gao Xiaodong and Inter Milan that they don't need to take part in the national team's matches. Inter Milan are in a tight competition now. Gao Xiaodong avoids FIFA virus and keeps his physical fitness. Inter Milan's mid week League is guaranteed. However, Gao Xiaodong, who is very popular and whose commercial value is rising step by step, doesn't need to go to the muddy waters of domestic football at this time.
After the return of the national team, Inter Milan will face Genoa, the eighth place at home. In this game, inter are in no condition. Gao Xiaodong alone is hard to support. In the end, they are tied by Genoa 0-0.
This is also the first 0-0 score of this season for Inter. Fortunately, Rome and Milan are tied in this round, and Inter can continue to maintain an 8-point lead.
Although the team drew twice in a row because it was mixed between the Champions League and the national team, the impact on the morale was not small. The senior management and the coaching staff of Inter Milan were racking their brains to figure out how to play well in the league, and at the same time, they were ready to fight life and death in the Champions League with Chelsea. At this time, just a few days later, Ba Shen made trouble again.
It turns out that after being tied by Genoa, Balotelli, who was blocked by Mourinho, even sang the team song of Milan when interviewed by reporters, and cheered for AC Milan who fought against Rome on his own twitter, but Balotelli soon deleted the words of cheering.
This is like a stone stirred up a thousand waves, Inter fans have accused Balotelli, inter players also think that Balotelli's practice at this time is tantamount to betrayal.
On the eve of the battle of Chelsea, Balotelli should have done such a thing. President Moratti of Inter Milan was very angry. He told reporters, "it's intolerable. Mario must return to the right track. It's dangerous for him to do so."
How to get back on track? How to avoid danger? In fact, Moratti wants Balotelli to apologize and take a proper attitude. Moratti on Balotelli and Thornton is still very important, hoping to give Balotelli a chance to remedy.
However, at the critical moment of the team's sprint, Balotelli did so, and Jose's attitude was very strict. He said: "if Balotelli can't make a fundamental change, inter will no longer have his position."
Seeing that things were a little bit noisy, Balotelli's brother and agent Corrado made an explanation: This is that the reporter misled Balotelli to sing the team song of AC Milan. As for cheering for Milan on twitter, it is because Milan have less points than Rome. Balotelli is actually cheering for Inter Milan.
However, Corrado's words did not have much persuasion, and did not get the forgiveness of the fans and Jose. On the forum, some racist Inter fans began to attack Balotelli crazily, thinking that Balotelli is the black sheep, the rotten apple and the rat excrement. There is no shortage of people in the front line of inter now, and Jose should take Balotelli away immediately Lydia, go to the reserves.
When Balotelli is going to change his agent, Gao Xiaodong and his team are also going to get Balotelli into their own agency. However, after this incident, Gao Xiaodong and others also shrink back. It's not easy to wipe their ass for such a mentally handicapped man as Balotelli. Let alone their influence and influence, it's useless even for laiola and Mendes Who knows what Balotelli can do in the future.Moratti does not want such a situation to appear. In his mind, Balotelli and Thornton are the future of Inter Milan, and Jose is the present of Inter Milan. He still hopes that Balotelli can continue to play for the team, especially in the sprint stage of the season. Therefore, Moratti and technical manager Blanca personally mediate between Balotelli and Jose, but in the face of temper Moratti's mediation did not work.
In the weekend and Catania's game, the mussinio still excluded Balotelli from the list of 18 people, this game is the last game of the week and before the life and death battle of Chelsea, Inter have been defeated in a row recently, there is still a lot of off-site news, but also for the week's Champions League, the game played very badly, finally relying on an own goal 1-1 draw Catania.
After the match, the best team didn't win and Catania should get three points. However, he said that in the Champions League, inter should never behave like the league, otherwise inter might waste Gao Xiaodong's efforts in the first leg.
Compared with Inter Milan, the state of Chelsea in the last three games is much better. Although they returned to the League after the Champions League war with Inter Milan, they did not slow down and lost 2-4 to Manchester City. But then Chelsea swept Portsmouth 5-0 and beat the axe 4-1 to help West Ham United. The attack was very frightening.
However, what is troubling for Chelsea is that their substitute left back Zhirkov is back, but the substitute goalkeeper Hilario is injured again. In the battle with Inter, they can only send their third goalkeeper, 24-year-old Turnbull.
In the first leg, one goal of inter was injured and two were sent off. 20-year-old Gao Xiaodong played as goalkeeper carry all over the court. Now that Chelsea are going to play on his three goals, can 24-year-old Turnbull seal inter?
