The pride of the 235 team
The arrogance of the 235 team [second explosion]
September 12, Pinettina Base, press conference venue.
Since the renovation of the Pinettina base, the first place for Inter Milan for the new season and the pre-match press conference will be arranged here, and the headquarters on Via Durini will be dedicated to some administrative meetings.
When Yang Cheng walked into the press conference hall wearing a crisp Nike training uniform, the spotlight suddenly shone frequently.
I saw the Chinese holding a piece of paper in his hand, waving it at the reporter below, and then sat down.
"I will announce the first round of the Champions League group stage tomorrow, Inter Milan's squad, the goalkeeper is Buffon, Ferron, the defenders are Zanetti, Lucio, Silvestre, Panucci, Bergomi, Nesta, Pasquale, the midfielders are Emerson, Nedved and Van Bommel, and the forwards are Baggio, Recoba, Ronaldo, Vanney, Batistuta."
Since 6 players in the team were transferred to the national Olympic team to participate in the Sydney Olympics, Yang Cheng stuffed the few remaining players in the first team into the squad and prepared to use them in tomorrow's game.
The reporters below took a good note of it, and in fact the list did not surprise them.
"Questions? If not, the meeting will be adjourned! "Yang Cheng looks like I'm busy.
The reporters below immediately raised their hands one by one.
Yang Cheng glanced at it, and this time he noticed Farage, "Hey, hello, Mr. Farage, is there any problem?" ”
I don't know why, Yang Cheng is obviously very polite, but in Farage's ears, it is so harsh, so harsh that he wants to find a hole to get into.
Farage stood up amid the laughter of the crowd, "The first game of the Champions League of the new season is about to start, and the opponent is Besiktas from Turkey, and it is a home ......"
"Do you want to bet?" Yang Cheng interrupted him very directly, and asked very sincerely.
The expression was like, bet me, bet me!
The scene burst into laughter, and Farage sat down directly, huffing and puffing, but there was no way to vent.
"Next, don't ask if it's a boring question, if you want to bet on it, it's preferred!" Yang Cheng is a full gambler.
Everyone knows that he will only speak in a good tone when answering some foreign reporters and a few newspapers that have a good relationship with Inter Milan, such as Milan Sport, Milan City and other newspapers.
Not for anything else, just one word, cool!

13 September, Meazza Stadium, home team dressing room.
The enthusiasm that the fans had built up over the summer exploded today, and the entire Meazza stadium was packed.
Despite the fact that the opponents in this match were not strong, and although everyone felt that Besiktas could hardly pose a threat to Inter Milan, because Yang Cheng had never been beaten at home, all the fans were still excited and full of enthusiasm no matter what.
New Season, New Beginning, New Journey!
Yang Cheng deliberately opened the door of the locker room, so that all the Inter Milan players sitting inside could hear the movement of the fans, and he watched silently and listened quietly.
The players are brewing emotions, and he is brewing emotions!
It wasn't until Paul Byer looked up at him that the Chinese knew that the time was almost up!
The door to the locker room was gently shut, and all sounds and movements were blocked out, and it was quiet inside.
"I still remember that this time last year, I was not treated like I am now!" Yang Cheng walked in slowly from the door of the locker room, passed through the middle of the players on the left and right, came to the front, turned around, and looked at the door, the players sat on both sides of him, looking at him.
It's a really wonderful feeling!
"They booed me, they doubted me, the whole world didn't trust me, why?" Yang Cheng spread his hands, "Because of your poor performance, because we are not strong enough, we are not united enough, and we lack the kind of backbone that kind of slap!" He also made a special gesture of waving his right hand and slapping people. ,
"A lot of people ask me, what was my proudest thing in my first season at Inter Milan?"
After a pause, he smiled slightly, "Serie A championship trophy? Or did it conquer the fans? Or did it conquer the media and opponents? ”
Shaking his head, "Neither, really, trust me, guys, neither!" ”
"In my heart, I was most proud of you last season!" He pointed to each player, "Each of you has proved one thing with practical actions, that is, Inter Milan is a team of masters, a bloody team, and only plays men's football!" ”
"I want to tell you all that the star black hole Inter Milan has passed, the weak, dominating Inter Milan no longer exists, and now sitting here, what will appear on the pitch is a brand-new, defending league champion Inter Milan, a team that the whole world will be afraid of and tremble!"
After listening to this, the players all felt a burst of blood, and they all gritted their teeth, looking very excited.
"When I went to the UEFA Champions League group draw, they asked me, 'Hey, Yang, which team would you like to meet?' He deliberately learned some weird pretending to be a reporter, "I am very proud and proud, I raised my head and said, it doesn't matter, we are not afraid of meeting any team!" ”
"On the contrary, I saw a lot of interesting scenes at the draw site, some teams didn't draw us, and they were glad to laugh on the spot, and those teams that drew us were like being sentenced to a decisive decision, why is this happening?"
Yang Cheng waved his right hand and motioned to the players to think about it, "Think about it, why is this happening?" ”
After waiting for a while, he replied to himself, "Because we have become stronger!" ”
"Why am I telling you this? It's because I want you to understand that from today, from this game, from this minute, we are a strong team, we are a strong Inter, we are no longer the team that we used to be slaughtered! ”
"How?" Yang Cheng flipped his hand and asked.
"To beat the opponent, no matter what enemy we encounter, no matter how difficult it is, we must have a belief that we must defeat the opponent, because we are a strong Inter Milan, we are stronger than any opponent!"
"Bullying the soft and fearing the hard is not a strong team, and the nest is not a strong team, the real strong team must be invincible, and all opponents must be afraid, now is our chance to prove that we are a strong team!"
Yang Cheng didn't know when he walked to the door of the locker room again, grabbed the handle on the door, and pulled it away directly, and the shouts of the fans outside suddenly poured in.
"Now, let's go on the field and slaughter them!"
…………
…………
"The players from both sides have walked out of the tunnel one after another, and we can see the rosters of the two teams!"
"The home goal of Inter Milan is Gianluigi Buffon, and the backline from left to right is Zanetti, Nesta, Lucio and Panucci, and their main left wing-back last season, Zambrotta, has now been selected by the Olympic team to participate in the Sydney Olympics!"
"In terms of midfield, Inter Milan is still the main lineup of Nedved, Emerson and Van Bommel, Roberto Baggio appeared in the forward position, the two forwards are Ronaldo and Ruud van Nistelrooy, and the Argentine strong center Batistuta, who has been heavily introduced this season, was placed on the bench by Yang Cheng."
"It's a star-studded squad, arguably the strongest in football today, and from this lineup, it's clear that Inter Milan are determined to win the first game!"
Yang Cheng walked out of the players' tunnel when the commentator shouted these words, but he immediately walked to the away team's dugout and shook hands with the head coach of Besiktas, that is, Parma's former meritorious manager, the former manager of Dortmund, Nevio Scala.
"When Scala was at the helm of Dortmund, he had many battles with Yang Cheng, but he did not get a bargain from Yang Cheng's hands, this time he led the Turkish team to Serie A, playing away, with a more conservative attitude, shouting the slogan that a draw is victory before the game, he believes that although Besiktas is a team in the fourth pot, but there may not be no hope of the group, he even joked at the time, Inter Milan is only in the third pot, but everyone knows how strong they are!" ,
Unguided by the pre-match media coverage, Yang Cheng appeared personable, after all, it was his home stadium, he shook hands with Scala and his assistants, and then exchanged a few words to wish them a good time at the Meazza Stadium, before returning to his seat.
"The Barcelona and Leeds United game is about to start!" Paul Byer keeps up to date with the latest information in his notebook.
In this group, Yang Cheng really cares about Barcelona and Leeds United, Besiktas is really not taken into his eyes, not that he is careless, or underestimates the enemy, on the contrary, he has made very full preparations for this game.
It's just that the difference in strength between the two sides is there!
…………
…………
Nihat is fast, this is a well-established fact in Turkey!
Scala is also a very powerful head coach in the end, he knows that Yang Cheng likes to play defensive front press, like to play the front court press, so he specially put on a defensive counterattack, and put a low posture before the game.
And his reliance is Nihat!
So, when Inter Milan successfully crushed forward, Besiktas retreated as planned, and Nihat was roaming the holes in Inter's defence.
"Staring at that Brazilian, he often thrusts forward, and as soon as he goes forward, he inserts behind him, looking for loopholes!"
This is the tactic that Scala laid out before the game, although he wants to keep the draw, but it is not bad to be able to win.
