Chapter 200: Looking Forward (Second Update)

There are four league rounds left before the match against CSKA Moscow.

According to the habitual strategy of winning constantly, these four league games must be fought to the best of their ability.

The aim is to put pressure on second-placed Inter Milan.

The more ferocious Lazio behaves, the more pressure will be on second-placed Inter.

Because they will find themselves unable to keep up with Lazio, and hopeless wars will wear down their fighting spirit.

They will think that no matter how hard we try, we can't win......

What's the point of such competition?

Winning is all about making Inter Milan think like that.

When the Champions League quarter-finals began, he had little time to dwell on his opponents in the league.

A sufficiently large advantage must be established before then.

Or mentally crush Inter before then!

If we can lead by 10 or 12 points, then there are still six rounds left before the end of the league, and it can be said that Lazio's victory is a foregone conclusion.

※※※

In the 29th round, Lazio defeated Cagliari 2-0 away.

Inter Milan narrowly beat Palermo 1-0 away.

The two sides are still only eight points apart.

In the thirtieth round, Inter Milan defeated Wono 3:0 at home.

Lazio beat Siena 2-0 at home.

Continuing is only eight points away.

In the 31st round, Lazio challenged AC Milan away.

Inter Milan went away to Roma.

It was a war between the two cities of Milan and Rome.

The end result was a 1-0 win over AC Milan away from Lazio.

Inter Milan, on the other hand, beat Roma 2-1 away.

For Lazio, though, the victory came at a bit of a big cost.

Francisco was injured again and could miss a month's worth of action.

In addition, Belletti, who had just recovered from a two-month thigh muscle strain, started the game and played only thirteen minutes before being substituted due to a recurrence of an old injury.

In the late stages of the league, such a situation is always inevitable.

But this time. The preparation for winning is much more sufficient.

He wouldn't be overwhelmed by the injuries of these two men.

Francisco Pa has been injured several times this season, although each injury has been short-lived, ranging from a week to a month and a half.

So this season, his position has gradually changed from the main team to the rotation.

In his place came the maturing Chiellini.

Chiellini is now in central defence with Jose Passarella and has been in excellent form this season.

Until now, Lazio have conceded eleven goals in the league!

The number of goals conceded is the highest in Europe.

Jose Passarella, as the world's number one central defender, naturally contributed to this.

But Chiellini's good form is also one of the reasons.

Otherwise, it is impossible to do it by the strength of one person alone.

Of course, it also has to do with the team's tactics and the importance of the team's defense.

Belletti has rarely played this season because he is always injured.

This season, with his frequent use of rotation tactics in victory, Belletti has only played 12 games.

The main right-back who assisted strongly last season is completely gone.

Changsheng knows. According to the original trajectory of history, Belletti's injury wave has come.

His body has been completely destroyed, and from the beginning of the season until his retirement, he has not enjoyed a happy football for a day.

Comeback, injury, comeback, injury. That's all about Belletti's life for years to come.

In the end, he reluctantly announced his retirement in June 2011, when he was 35 years old.

He kept two of his healthiest seasons physically.

The injury he picked up in that game against Manchester United last season had a big impact on him.

On the second day of the match against AC Milan, Belletti made a phone call to win the game.

In the phone call, Belletti revealed his hope to return to Brazil next season.

"European football is too competitive, boss. I want to go back to Brazil. ”

Chang Sheng knows that it was in that time and space that Belletti terminated his contract with Chelsea in July of this year, and then returned to Brazil to join Fluminense.

But he wondered if he could change the fate of this man.

Anyway, he changed his honor roll......

Anyway, I lack a video analyst. He wanted Belletti to give it a try.

"Giuliano, do you want to stay and be part of my coaching staff?"

Chang Sheng asked.

Belletti over there seemed to be thinking about it, but she didn't say anything anyway.

Chang Sheng did not rush him. Just waiting for his reply.

After about a minute or two, Beretti's voice rang on the other end of the phone.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I'd rather go back to Brazil."

Hearing his words, Chang Sheng was silent for a while. Listening to this tone, Belletti may also be counting on returning to Brazil to play for two more years.

But in fact......

I went back to Brazil for a year. He was injured on a number of occasions and played just nine games for Fluminense, three of them starts.

He was eventually terminated by the club in June, and he himself later announced his retirement.

In other words, Belletti's return to Brazil will not change his fate.

It's about staying by my side and being able to be part of a championship coaching team.

But Belletti seemed to be sticking to her guns.

And it is impossible for him to tell the truth to Belletti.

How could he tell him: "Don't go back, you will definitely get hurt if you go back anyway...... Then you'll announce your retirement due to frequent injuries...... So why should you? ”

I'm afraid that in the end, Beretti will think that Chang Sheng is cursing him.

It is even less likely that he will tell Beretti that because he is a time-traveler, he knows what the future holds......

So Chang Sheng finally sighed and agreed to Belletti's request for termination.

At the end of the season, Lazio will terminate Belletti's contract without compensation on either side.

Lazio Club has allowed Belletti to leave, while BlackRock will return home to continue his career.

Last season's winning man didn't let anyone go. Before the season ended, it had already been decided who was leaving.

Punch again. Chang Sheng found out that Belletti was now thirty-four years old......

At this age, it is true that the career has come to an end.

Truth be told, most of the players on the winning team are young, so he didn't realize that he also had players on his team who had reached the end of their careers.

Beretti's departure touched a little of his parting.

However, this did not affect the pace of the previous steps.

Life is like sitting on a train that goes to an unknown place.

There are many stops along the way, and when you enter these stations, the bus stops, and then someone gets on the bus, and naturally someone gets off.

Each journey will have a different person with you, some will only be able to accompany you for one stop, and some will be able to accompany you for several more stops. Only a handful of people will accompany you all the way through this long journey.

This is sad.

But if you always miss your companions who have already gotten off the bus and are not willing to go any further, how can you possibly meet more new people and enrich your journey?

Besides, the car won't stop. Even if you get off the bus, it won't stop, it just keeps going.

If you're in the car, you have to accept that.

You may not be able to remember the faces, voices, and names of the first people who get on the bus, because you will always accept new people and see new sights.

When you were in elementary school, you never knew how exciting life was in junior high school. When you graduate from college, you're drunk with your college classmates. When you hug your head and cry, you probably won't know that the friends you know in society will also touch your heartstrings.

People always have to look forward.

※※※

Looking ahead, Lazio defeated Napoli 3-1 at home in the 32nd round of the league.

They also fielded the strongest squad in this game.

Although Lazio does not have any main substitutes, the lineup is still divided into strong and weak.

The strongest team hosts Napoli.

Lazio finally got their 25th consecutive win of the season!

Of course. Inter Milan are also tough.

They also beat Bologna 3-0 at home.

As a result, until the start of the Champions League quarter-finals, Lazio was not able to open the points gap as expected.

As a result, the two sides are still eight points apart.

If you can't open the gap, you can't win.

But you always have to look forward.

The quarter-finals of the Champions League are coming, and we are still struggling with how the league will be. It's too short-sighted.

※※※

In terms of physical strength, this time Chang Win did not take the whole team to Moscow.

It's too far away there after all.

The long journey is tiring.

So Chang Sheng knew that eighteen people went to Moscow.

And most of the players in the strongest squad didn't go.

Even if there is a mistake in the away game. Lazio were also able to pull back at home.

CSKA Moscow's home stadium is the Luzhniki Stadium, which is no stranger to winning a lot.

Lazio is no stranger to it.

Because Lazio's first Champions League title in history was won here.

However, this time the Luzhniki Stadium still felt a little unfamiliar to them.

The game is not very comfortable to play.

This is because this time the Luzhniki Stadium uses artificial turf.

The Luzhniki Stadium is originally an artificial turf course, which is lower due to the special climate of Russia.

The last time was the Champions League final, UEFA required the use of natural turf, and the artificial turf that was temporarily laid at the Luzhniki Stadium turned out to be of poor quality and almost pitted Lazio.

Fortunately, Chang Sheng was prepared, otherwise if he lost the championship because of the turf, it would be wronged......

The biggest difference between artificial turf and natural turf is that it is harder, the friction damping is greater, and the damage to the knee is greater when running on it, because the reaction force fed back to the knee is greater.

The speed and trajectory of a soccer ball rolling on artificial turf and natural turf are also different.

Players who are used to playing natural turf are not used to playing artificial turf.

Although there was training before the game to get used to the venue, it was not so easy to adapt.
