309 Teach the madman a lesson
"The weather in Milan is really changeable, yesterday the weather forecast said it would be sunny, but today it suddenly rained, fortunately my team has always been well prepared, otherwise, I am afraid I would have to buy sneakers temporarily!"
Jose Mourinho and Yang Chengzhuo stood on the sidelines, talking.
At this moment, the fans who were watching this game in front of the TV saw this scene.
They have known each other for a long time, when Mourinho was Robson's assistant, Yang Cheng was Kaiserslautern's Caesar, who led the Bundesliga Red Devils to defeat Robson's Barcelona, Mourinho experienced that game with his own eyes, and was very, very impressive.
Even from a certain point of view, it was Yang Cheng's performance in that game that gave him a spur.
At that time, he was standing behind Robson, watching Yang Cheng and his team win the championship, and he asked himself in his heart, a young man in his early twenties can do such an amazing thing, why can't I?
Since then, he has unswervingly embarked on the road of professional football coaching, even if he encountered many ups and downs, no matter how many tribulations, he never gave up his wish, and it was also his wish to play face-to-face with Yang Cheng.
Externally, he can say that he doesn't care, but in fact, his colleagues know very well that Mourinho has been preparing for this game since he took charge of Porto, and he is eager to beat Caesar!
Yang Cheng smiled, he knew that Mourinho's words were ostensibly about the weather, but in fact he was saying that Inter Milan took advantage of the climate, and even if he won, he would not be convinced.
"Yes, it's terrible, I miss the warm sunshine on the Iberian Peninsula now, I believe it must be very comfortable to play in that sunshine, but I've been in Milan for almost 3 years, I'm used to the winter here, because of the cold, so it makes the game more challenging, I want to challenge the winter!"
Mourinho is laughing on the surface, but not in his heart.
Yang Cheng is also talking about the weather on the surface, but in fact he is suggesting that if Mourinho talks about the weather, it proves that he and his Porto are soft eggs who can only play in the Portuguese sun and cannot win games in the cold rain of Milan.
On the other hand, Yang Cheng and his Inter Milan, whether it is the sunshine in Portugal or the cold rain in Milan City, they can deal with it calmly, secretly raising themselves and stepping on their opponents.
"I'm also a cheap person, and I like to constantly challenge opponents who are stronger than me!" Mourinho said lightly.
Yang Cheng was still smiling, "I would never allow myself to lose to an opponent weaker than me!" ”
The two managers went toe-to-toe, and neither of them would back down.
…………
…………
"You can see that the two young managers should be in a competitive position."
When the camera was given to Yang Cheng and Mourinho again, the two coaches who looked very individual and handsome were still fighting each other in a-for-tat manner, and the on-site commentator couldn't help but ridicule.
"Mourinho said in an interview with reporters before the game that when he was arranging tactics against Inter Milan, after arranging the lineup, he suddenly found that his team had to play 13 men to be able to block Inter Milan's attack!"
The on-site commentators were amused by Mourinho's punchline, the Portuguese man was really funny to talk about.
"We should all be looking forward to seeing how he can do what 13 people can do with 11 players!"
In an interview before the game, Yang Cheng said that Inter Milan, who is playing at home, hopes to continue to advance in the Champions Cup and qualify ahead of schedule, so as to shorten the schedule of the two-line battle!
"Obviously, the two-front battle has caused a lot of trouble for Inter Milan, and Rao is a little too much to bear with the rotation system."
As they spoke, both sides returned to the dressing room, and it wasn't long before players from both sides appeared in the tunnel and each other's rosters came to each other.
Baia, Jorge Costa, Carvalho, Andrade, Costinia, McCarthy......
Looking at Porto's lineup, a large part of them are the main lineup that won the Champions League with Mourinho in the previous life, and there is still Esneider who played for Juventus on the bench. To put it bluntly, Mourinho's tactics are never affected by one player, he emphasizes the whole!
"The Portuguese should still be defensive!" Paul Beyer looked at Mourinho's list and made a sure analysis.
Yang Cheng couldn't help nodding, if Porto dared to press and attack on Inter Milan's home stadium, then they would have a bad brain.
Inter Milan will have Gianluigi Buffon, Zambrotta, Nesta, Lucio and Zanetti in lineup, Pirlo, Nedved and Deco in midfield, Recoba in midfield, and Ruud van Nistelrooy and Batistuta in front.
Retreating from Nedved's position and Recoba as a forward midfielder, it can be seen that Yang Cheng is going to use the team's offensive power and the player's personal ability to solve this battle!
In the case of a huge gap in the strength of each other, the role of tactics is extremely limited, and Yang Cheng will not give Mourinho a chance, he wants to stare at the Portuguese madman for the whole game, and teach him a good lesson!
…………
…………
The game started at the feet of Porto, Mourinho discharged the 4312 tactic, which is also Porto's preferred tactic after Mourinho took charge this season, and he has performed well in the Portuguese league, but whether he is competitive in the European arena will depend on Inter Milan to test.
There is a saying that is quite true, tactics are dead, but people are alive!
Porto looks like a double striker and is not conservative, but in fact, Mourinho has been rushing like crazy from the beginning of the game, from front to back, all in grabbing, constantly grabbing, constantly destroying, and constantly fouling.
"It is estimated that Mourinho has only one task for the midfield, to destroy the connection between Inter Milan's midfield and the striker, that's all!" Even the on-site commentators were surprised by Mourinho's full-pitched crazy tactics, how much of a physical drain did it take on the players?
But it is also helpless, Inter Milan has also exposed their own problems under Porto's crazy grab, especially in the midfield.
The first shot of the game was not from the feet of Inter, but from McCarthy's hurried long-range shot, as the Inter midfielder was sent straight on the counter-attack after conceding the goal.
As Yang had feared before the game, Pirlo played in the midfield, and while Nedved and Deco were on the side, he was unable to provide the same consistent assistance as Emerson in defence, especially in defence.
But the top team is the top team in the end, Yang Cheng saw that Porto was very fierce at the beginning, instead of letting the team avoid its edge, he walked to the sidelines and gave instructions to the players on the field, "Give me his mother's head back!" ”
As if sensing the manager's fury, Inter Milan quickly pushed Porto out of their own half and launched a fierce attack on the goal guarded by Baia, with Dutch striker Ruud van Nistelrooy opening the scoring for Inter in the 19th minute.
