The reporters who had gathered in the mixed zone had dispersed, and no players remained there waiting for reporters. The focus is no longer on them at this time.

In the press room of the San Siro Stadium, a special press conference is taking place.

Inter Milan manager Jose Mourinho sits on the left-hand side and Nottingham Forest manager Toney. Don sat on the right-hand side. The English media hadn't seen it for more than three years, so they were a little excited, but the Italian media thought it was just an ordinary press conference.

Done and Mourinho were quick to give them a glimpse of what it was like to press conference......

The reporter of the reality newspaper "Milan Sport" raised his hand to ask Mourinho to express his thoughts on the game.

Mourinho snorted: "We weren't very lucky, we didn't win in the end. I'm not very happy with the two goals conceded, but that's what football is like and you have to accept ......."

Then he said some nonsense that was said and not said.

The same reporter threw the question to Don again, who laughed and said: "Mourinho said they were unlucky? I think they were so lucky, otherwise we should have taken three points from here, not just one. The game is over and I don't want to judge the referee's work...... "Actually, he doesn't give himself any more trouble. "But I think Mr. Mourinho should really thank God for allowing them to get this point."

The smell of gunpowder has appeared.

Don took the initiative to provoke, but Mourinho held back.

The press conference was able to continue.

This time it was asked by an English journalist who clearly knew much more about the story between Donn and Mourinho than his Italian counterparts: "Mr. Mourinho. You never seem to have beaten Tony when you led the team. Donn, this time is no exception, do you feel like this has become a cycle of bad surnames? ”

Jose Mourinho has been in England for a few years, but he has answered questions like this. He was tired of such questions. So he decided not to answer.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward, and Don En next to him raised his hand and smiled to save the scene: "I can answer your question, Mr. Reporter." ”

Mourinho knew that Donn's dog couldn't spit ivory out of his mouth, so he glanced at Donn coldly.

"That's right, this kind of record is something that Mr. Mourinho and I don't care about." Surprisingly, Donne's first sentence turned out to be to help Mourinho speak. "Because that doesn't mean anything. After all, I have 19 opponents in the league, and even if I can win every time I meet Mr. Mourinho's team, it's only six points, so what is six points for? Nothing. So as opposed to Mourinho's unbeaten record, I'm more concerned about the title. ”

Speaking of which, it's all pretty normal.

But then Donn's voice changed.

'But while I don't particularly value the unbeaten record with Jose Mourinho, I don't want to lose for nothing, no manager wants to lose. So I don't look at Jose Mourinho's team alone, I try to win as any other opponent. So the result is...... That's what you're seeing! ”

At the end, Don smirked a little.

Everyone understands that Don is cheap and good!

It's so annoying!

Mourinho would love to shut Don because he couldn't argue with it on this matter. What did he say? Say "Actually, I don't care about that bullshit record, I only care about the result"? But the result was that he didn't win and Tony. Donne's game, and it led to a stalemate on the way to Champions League qualification. Or "We didn't win this time, but I promise to win next time!" "It's a little too boring, and it's really unkind to say that you will win next time, like the wording of a red-eyed gambler who swears to borrow money from someone. Jose Mourinho would never have said that.

Mourinho had a dark face and wanted to walk away, but he couldn't. Because the owner Moratti has warned him more than once that this is Italy, not England, he has to pay attention to his image, which is that of Inter.

The next question is a bit more normal, and I want the managers to comment on the performance of the players in the game. Jose Mourinho highly praised Quaresma's goal and performance, and his words were disseminated through the media and were sure to make Quaresma ecstatic. Donn, on the other hand, praised the whole team, and he didn't praise anyone individually, not even George. Wood's play shines all over the field. But what...... Tang En really deserves to be the reincarnation of a mad dog, and such a question can make his words full of gunpowder.

“…… I don't praise any player individually, not because they didn't perform well. On the contrary, they were all so good that I couldn't praise a few players individually, if I had to name them. I'm going to name all the Forest players who have played. I'm very happy with the way we played tonight, we drew but we scored two away goals and it was a result of everyone coming together. In contrast, there are only a handful of Inter Milan who can be considered normal...... "The implication is that why did Mourinho praise Quaresma alone? Because apart from this, he has no one to praise.

Mourinho is not a fool, but at this point he can only play dumb. Who allowed themselves to actually lose to Donne? On your home turf, a draw is a loss.

This result made him too aggrieved, and what was even more aggrieved was that if it wasn't for the extra kindness of the referee at the last moment, he might have to face the result of this home defeat.

Pierce. Bruce stood up and asked Donn if the draw away from Inter Milan was revenge for Inter's elimination of Forest in the previous two seasons.

Done shook his head and corrected Bruce's question: "First of all, it's not that we drew with Inter Milan away, it's Inter Milan who drew us at home. Secondly, I don't think it's revenge, it's just a draw, and we still haven't played a game. When that game is over, I can probably say what you asked. ”

Mourinho finally found an opportunity to fight back: "Don't say it too soon, Mr. Don't say it. I don't think you're going to win against Inter when you go home. If you can score two goals at our home stadium, why can't Inter Milan score at least two goals at your home stadium? ”

Don snorted: "Well said, Mr. Mourinho. Whatever we say here now is useless. I think football is played with the feet, not by the mouth. I'm looking forward to the game. ”

"I'm looking forward to it, too." Mourinho replied with a cold face.

It seemed that he was specifically trying to embarrass him, and at this time, an English reporter spoke and asked: "The home team has conceded two goals, and the situation of the team to advance is very serious." What do you think of the current situation, Mr. Mourinho? ”

"I'll admit it's going to be tough. But I'm confident. We've eliminated them once before, and this one was no exception. ”

Don pouted, but he didn't say the words "That's because I'm not there."

Winning a verbal battle with Jose Mourinho is certainly a cool thing, but it can hurt the feelings of coaches such as Don and Chris Lak in turn. Because that is an indirect indication that his assistants are incompetent......

The press conference ended in a lukewarm and awkward atmosphere, with Mourinho not even talking to Toney. Don shook hands and hurried away from the scene. Don smiled and posed, allowing the photojournalists present to take a few more photos.

Two goals away from home made Mourinho deflated at the press conference, and these two things put him in a good mood.

※※※

Although Donn did not praise George by name in his post-match press conference. Wood, Wood's outstanding performance in the game has also attracted a lot of attention. Nottingham Forest's opponents are horrified to find that the silly boy who used to only defend and fly like a headless fly has now grown into a very intimidating attacking weapon in the Nottingham Forest formation.

'He can freeze the core of the midfield one-on-one, his excellent fitness and uninjured physique allows him to worry about attendance, he has the same long-range shooting as the world, and now he can even dribble the ball from the back to send the ball all the way to the opposition box...... What more could you ask for? Tony. Towne has been focusing on developing Wood's offensive ability since this season, and he intends to bring George to the table. Wood has become the team's dual core – Wood has always been a mental core, and now he is showing signs of moving closer to the tactical core. He can intercept directly in midfield, then feed his team-mates with cannonballs, and in some cases he can dribble through and create chances on his own, a midfielder that any manager can only dream of. ”

The media commented well, George. Wood is in perfect form, his physical fitness is also on the rise, and his status in the national team is becoming more and more important. Although Frank Lampard has not announced his retirement from the national team, he is no longer likely to shake George in the national team. Wood's workhorse is up.

Wood's partner is sometimes Gerrard, sometimes Barry, and sometimes Joe. Cole, only Wood's position is thunderous. Capello likes this serious kid very much, the only headache is that Wood has eaten a lot of yellow cards, although he doesn't eat much red cards, but he is still very depressed if he accumulates yellow cards and is suspended.

After returning to England, Nottingham Forest was welcomed by many fans. They have scored two goals away from home, and now the public opinion is unanimously optimistic about them, and the local media in Nottingham can't wait to start caring about the big battle between Forest and Barcelona. Poor Mourinho was thrown aside......

Even the Forest players were happy with the result and optimistic about their prospects of qualifying.

Others took the initiative to talk about their next rival, Barcelona, in an interview. If you don't know the inside story, you must have thought that the match that just ended was the second leg of the match between Nottingham Forest and Inter Milan......

That optimism has carried over into the league as Nottingham Forest thrashed Tottenham Hotspur 3-0 at home in the Premier League. For a time, the media touted Nottingham Forest as an invincible battleship.

With that in mind, they met Bolton Wanderers in the 28th round of the Premier League, which was played at home to Nottingham Forest. Everyone thinks that the in-form Forest team will be able to beat or even beat Bolton, who are 16th in the league.

But......

Nearly twenty-one-year-old Nathan. Wolfe (nathan_oolfe) scored a magical brace in the game to help his side win over the mighty Nottingham Forest. The score of that game was 1:2, with the home team in front and the away team in the back.

When the game was over, Donn, who was sitting in the chair of the coach's box, was not angry about it. He didn't throw his suit, he didn't kick a water bottle, he didn't even babble dirty words, he just got up and Bolton manager Phil. Brown shook hands, his face expressionless.

Some people think that Don must be out of anger, so he won't say anything at all. Also thinking about it are the Nottingham Forest players. Wasn't a home defeat to Bolton Wanderers, who were on the brink of the relegation zone, enough to make the boss angry? So they hurriedly thanked the fans at the scene and hurriedly bowed their heads and walked into the locker room, everyone waiting in fear to bear the anger of the leader.

But the truth was not what they expected.

Don smiled and told them "good loss".

"Any idea why I say that? I'm definitely not talking back, so you don't have to worry about me spitting on you right after. I'm not confused and talking nonsense. I'm very sober, I've seen all your previous performances, I didn't remind you that I just think that saying that kind of thing when you are enthusiastic is not convincing enough. But now it's different. He spread his hands, "You just lost a game, and you lost to Bolton, I think it must be very convincing to say it now, and no one will whisper in their hearts: 'The boss is always alarmist'." Now I'm going to tell you – if you continue to face Inter Milan with this mentality, you'll lose with no panties left! ”

"Am I alarmist? Then look at the game that just ended. I bet you must have thought before the game that an opponent like Bolton, who is about to fall into the relegation circle, can win without much effort, right? ”

No one said anything, but everyone knew in their hearts that the leader was right...... Against a team from the bottom four, there are few people who can be interested, especially with an important Champions League just around the corner.

"Playing a team like Bolton Wanderers will lose the game because of a momentary underdog, do you think Inter Milan is not as good as Bolton? So it was a timely loss, and if I had to lose a game because of your pride, I'd rather lose a normal league game than the Champions Cup. So I'm laughing now because I know I'm not going to lose the Champions Cup. Will I? ”

"No, sir." Someone answered him.

"That's what you said." Donn pointed to the players, "Men have to count when they talk. If you lose, you're not men. ”
