Chapter 670: Battle for the Top of the List (3)
In the second half, Han Sen's replacement not only triggered Inter fans, but even attracted whispers from Roma fans, many people are speculating whether it is something happening in the dressing room, after all, in the first half, Mourinho's dissatisfaction with Han Sen jumped on his face, not only Han Sen was replaced, Stankovic was also replaced by Pandev, Mourinho is completely understandable in the overall strengthening of the offensive behind, but the replacement of two backs at the same time is unprecedented, especially looking at Giuseppe? Baresi pulled Hansen, who had his head drooping, to sit in the coach's box behind Mourinho, and everyone was even more confused.
"In the first season, he won the La Liga midfield scorer in the middle of the season, the Champions League assist king and the Champions League MVP in the second season, and the world footballer in the third season." Jose Mourinho said to Hansen, "Your path is probably the smoothest and smoothest of all the world footballer of the year, you know? β
βsowhatοΌβ Han Sen said coldly.
Mourinho said: "I've told you before that it's good to be in the position of World Footballer of the Year, but what it's like to think about the day when you're not in that position or you're ousted. β
"Then I used to be Mr. Footballer, isn't that enough?" Han Sen had a lot of opinions on Mourinho replacing him, so his words were also-for-tat. Baresi sweated as he listened, for fear that the two of them would just fight at the Olympic Stadium in Rome, and this matter would look good.
At this time, the field came to the 49th minute, Eto'o went straight to the right, Milito fired a right-footed volley from 14 meters away from the goal on the right side of the penalty area, and the ball hit the outside of the post after touching the Roma defender! Off the field, Mourinho, Hansen and Baresi all stopped talking for the time being. After watching this shot, I exhaled a little.
Mourinho shook his head and whispered to Han Sen: "Is it enough for the World Footballer?" β
"So what else do you want?" Han Sen continued unconvinced.
"Ball King!" Mourinho thought for a moment and spit out the word, and Han Sen's body shook. Although this word was rarely mentioned, but now that it suddenly sounded, it made people feel numb, because Han Sen suddenly felt that he was not far away from this word, and it was even within reach.
"I remember you had a nickname called the Thirteenth Ball King!" Mourinho saw Hansen's mood change. So he began to say slowly, "Don't you want to be number one, to be the one and only?" β
Looking at Han Sen, he was speechless. Mourinho smiled and said: "How to become the king of the ball, that is, you can never be beaten by your opponent!" Even if the team is knocked down by the opponent in the score, the momentum of the king of the ball will not be knocked down. Pele and Maradona have both lost. But people don't remember the games they lost, because in those games they still played at the level of the king, they played at a high level and on an individual level, they never lost. β
At this point, Inter equalized the score on the field, and Pandev's shot was blocked by Roma. In the scuffle in the penalty area, Sneijder crosses from the right. Milito kicked the ball into the goal from 4 meters in the middle, 1-1! Milito's 15th league goal helped Inter equalise. Slow motion showed that in the pre-goal combination, when Sneijder went through, Pandev was suspected of offside.
Mourinho didn't have time to give Han Sen another ideological and political lesson, but quickly stood up and asked the players on the field to make adjustments. Hansen sat there and seemed to be reminiscing about Mourinho's words, Giuseppe? Baresi sat down next to Han Sen at the right time and said: "Handsome, in fact, Jose's words are right, I think his approach is also right, maybe in terms of personal skills, in your understanding of the team's tactics, we can't guide you anymore, but the level of dedication to the game, I think you are definitely not as good as Zanetti." β
Han Sen listened to the bitter words of the two coaches, so he said to Baresi: "I know, we can't give up every game." β
Mourinho just finished shouting, turned around and immediately shook his finger at Han Sen: "No, it's not a matter of not giving up, it's a problem that requires you to lead the team and affect the team, Zanetti can't start for the team after a yellow card, and the players will feel sorry for him, why is this?" Because everyone knows that without him on the field, there will probably be a lot less. But I just replaced you, are the players upset? Or has anyone come forward and said even a word for you? β
When Han Sen sat there stunned, Inter missed the stunner on the field, and after Pandev's wonderful pass, Milito formed a one-on-one knife, but he was saved by the goalkeeper. But 1 minute later, Tadei, who had just been replaced by Roma, broke through on the right side and crossed to the middle, and Toni stopped the ball at the penalty spot and turned around and volleyed with his right foot, sweeping the ball into the bottom right corner of the goal! 2-1, Roma took the lead again.
Regardless of what to say to Hansen, Mourinho ran out of substitutions, replaced Cambiaso with Zivo, replaced all three midfielders, and Zanetti switched to midfield. After that, Inter attacked aggressively, and in the 84th minute, Eto'o unloaded a long ball and burst into the box to volley 16 meters from goal, but the ball went high. In the 4th minute of stoppage time, Zivo made a long pass on the left, Lucio ferried, Milito shot with his left foot on the left side of the penalty area, and the ball hit the post and popped up! At the end of the game, Inter lost 2-1 to Roma. After this campaign, Inter are only one point ahead of Roma.
Mourinho breathed a sigh of relief and stood up, ready to shake hands with the next players, and did not forget to turn back to Han Sen and say: "I said earlier, I am willing to give up this game and find your feelings again." β
You must know that this is Serie A, which is one of the five major European leagues, even if Mourinho said this sentence to Han Sen alone, the crazy element contained in it also made Han Sen feel shocked, will there be a coach who will give up a battle for the top of the top five European leagues in order to let you get back the feeling of the game and the feeling of fighting? Even with a player like Han Sen, it is difficult to have a coach like Mourinho!
The players on the bench also left the field one after another, only Han Sen was still sitting there, Mourinho shook hands with the players one by one, and then turned back to Han Sen and said: "Zanetti can't play in the next round of the league, I want you to be the captain on the field!" It will be your first and probably only time this season as an on-field captain. β
Han Sen's heart is pounding, after serving as a captain in Mallorca, he has basically not been on the side of the captain in Barcelona, if he can serve as a captain at Inter, then for his own journey in the giants, and even the advertising image off the field, it will be a great promotion and stability, Han Sen is now looking forward to a slightly chaotic off-field life, isn't it stability?
Mourinho began to walk down the field at this time: "Of course, the premise is very simple, in midweek, you have to take Moscow first!" β
In this game, Inter Milan behaved strangely, and it was suddenly densely covered in the media reports after the game, but fortunately, most people did not think that the loss of the game was because of Hansen's aberration and Mourinho's sudden frenzy, but thought that the main reason was the instability of goalkeeper Cesar, and Inter Milan conceded the first goal in the 17th minute, which led to the team's full passivity. And in this conceded goal, one saw a low-level mistake by Cesar. At that time, Pizarro took a free-kick from the side and Burdisso jumped to the top. Because Burdisso was forced to jump and rush to the top in the "pack" defense of Han Sen and Cambiaso, the ball did not have much power on the top. However, Cesar made a jaw-dropping save by letting go of the ball and slapping the ball down with both palms, so how could the ball go far? In the end, De Rossi scored from the spot. "Milan Sport" said mercilessly: "A mistake that should not be at the level of Cesar". It is no exaggeration to say that the credit of De Rossi for this goal is far less than Cesar's "credit", and it is this goal that led to Mourinho's dissatisfaction with Han Sen, so there were successive substitutions later.
On the second day of the competition, Xu Yun just opened his eyes and found that Han Sen beside him was already getting dressed, and said in a daze with sleepy eyes: "It's not dawn yet!" Where are you going? β
Han Sen said, "Go to the training ground." β
"Isn't this just the end of the game?" Xu Yun rubbed her eyes.
Han Sen had already put on his equipment, turned around and said to Xu Yun with a smile, "Wife, it's been a long time since you've seen me get up so early!" β
Xu Yun sat up, looked at the refreshed Han Sen, and said, "It's been a while. β
Han Sen smiled: "That's right." β
After speaking, Han Sen ran out of the room easily, and Xu Yun sat there for a long time before falling back to sleep. (To be continued......)
