Chapter 135
Before I knew it, it was mid-April 2020.
In preparation for the second leg at home to Manchester City, Conte fielded a substitute for the 30th round of Serie A at home against Cagliari.
Ye Chen, Barrera, Deflé, Brozovic and a large number of other main players did not play, replaced by substitutes such as Candreva, Sanchez and D'Ambrosio.
Conte thought that with a decent substitute line-up, Inter could easily win relegation team Cagliari at home.
But what I didn't expect was that Inter drew 1-1 with their opponents at home!
No win in two consecutive rounds, such a result, Inter Milan, which has been smooth sailing this season, is the first time they have encountered.
The morale of the whole team became more and more depressed.
Conte is also facing a crisis of confidence for the first time since taking charge of Inter.
Inter star Milito was quite unhappy in an interview with Milan Sport newspaper.
"The rotation is
very necessary, every coach rotates, but there are only eight rounds left in the league, AC Milan are only seven points behind us - oh no, after this round, it's five points, and they have been catching up without European tasks, just waiting for our chance to make mistakes.
"
No, no, no, as I said before, it's far from time to talk about champions, the first thing we need to do is focus on every game, especially not to lose points on weak teams, playing Cagliari in the last round is a typical negative example, we lost two points at home!"
"I wouldn't say we're out, it's not the spirit of Inter, but maybe Conte should understand that a visible Serie A title is more realistic than a Champions League winner. The last thing I want to see is that in the end we will achieve nothing!" "
Ye Chen's role?" "
Ye Chen is a phenomenal player, but football is a team sport, just like being beaten by Manchester City away from home, Ye Chen, like the whole team, is lost in the high pressure of Guardiola, which is a dilemma that Ye Chen had to go through when he was growing up, and I also encountered it when I was young."
Argentine Milito was instrumental in Inter's victory of the only treble of Serie A in 2010, scoring twice in the final against Bayern Munich and being inducted into Inter's all-time Hall of Fame.
His voice this time has had an impact on many Inter players.
Homegrown Italians such as Candreva, D'Ambrosio and Gagliardini agree with Milito that winning the Serie A title at this stage is the top priority for players.
As for the second leg of the Champions League with Manchester City, it is a good idea
to save your strength, not to get injured in the final stages of the league, and maintain a five-point advantage until the end of the 38th round, rather than expend a lot of physical strength and fight Manchester City to the death.
On the evening of April 15, the Meazza Stadium in Milan.
Although the Inter team was divided on the choice of this Champions League match, the fans were still enthusiastic, and this game, pouring in 75,000 Inter fans, was another almost explosive game!
In this game, Conte sent all the cards he could to play to Manchester City with the strongest team.
Ye Chen was surprised to find that he could see the morale on everyone's heads.
The morale value is indicated by arrows.
Except for a few people such as Lautaro, Shike and Brozovic, there are light red raised arrows.
Others, either straight yellow arrows or sliding gray arrows.
Players like Candreva, Barrera, Gagliardini, and even black arrows that go vertically down!
Inter's Italian local gang did not have the morale to play this game at all, and their thoughts were on the next away game against Bologna.
Conte came in, and he gave a passionate speech first.
The most head coach, he has won three Serie A and one Premier League title, full of honors.
So
from Conte's selfish point of view, he doesn't care much about whether Inter can win Serie A, anyway, there is a five-point advantage to squander; he
expects Inter to go further in the Champions League, even win the title, and realize his dream of a Champions League.
"Boys, raise your head to Lao Tzu!"
Conte applauded, trying to attract the players' attention.
However, many players still shrug their heads.
Conte began his pre-match speech:
"Wake me up that what you are about to face is not a simple Serie A, Champions League knockout match!
But don't forget, you're wearing an Inter shirt, you have no way back, you have to face the challenge like a man, beat your opponent, and that's how you can be worthy of the 75,000 spectators cheering for you!"
"Serie A champions are very important, but the Champions League is even more important than Serie A! Let me see your passion, boys!" After
Conte's speech, Ye Chen observed the change in the morale of the whole team.
In addition to Lautaro, Shik and Brozovic, the morale arrows of Handanovic, Bastoni and Lukaku also changed from yellow to slightly raised light red.
And the players of the Italian local gang, except for Barrera's arrow turning straight yellow, Candereva and Gagliardini are still lifeless downward black.
"This can't work, you must raise everyone's morale, otherwise you won't have to fight Manchester City!" Ye
Chen stood up, walked to the middle of the dressing room, and said to Conte:
"Coach, can you please go out first, I have some words, I want to talk to my brothers alone."
Conte was stunned, hesitated for a while, then nodded and went out with the teaching assistant.
He had finished his speech and it was time to go to the dugout.
The teammates looked at Ye Chen, a little strange.
In
the past, when the team members spoke before the game, the most that was the old captain Handanovic encouraged them.
Ye Chen never said anything.
In the eyes of everyone, Ye Chen cleared his throat.
"Brothers, downstairs where I live, there is a fruit shop owned by a 70-year-old white-haired lady who never watches football and doesn't know I'm an Inter player, but every time I pass by, even if I don't buy his apples, the old lady will call out to me.
She would come up to me with a smile, look me in the eye and say, Asian lad, give you an apple, corai! "
The word is pronounced coraggio in Italian, but the grandmother is a southern Genoese, so with an accent, it pronounces like corai.
Ye Chen paused, and everyone's eyes were like spotlights, hitting him alone.
"Of all the character traits, the most important is bravery
!" "On the court, whether you lose, win or draw, the most fundamental requirement is brave! Be brave to make mistakes, no matter what happens! Be brave to do things well until the end! Bravely hold on for 90 minutes, do our best!" "
In the last game at the Etihad, we lost our bravery and played very badly, and when you go shopping at the supermarket market, the woman who collects the money may be thinking, ' This is an Inter Milan player who is shrunk and afraid to come out, and this taste is not comfortable. "
Today, I don't want to see this again, it's my first season of the Champions League, but whenever the song of the Champions League plays, I feel heavy, solemn and proud of the blue and black responsibility I have shouldered. I feel that thousands of eyes are waiting for me to fulfill my glorious mission - to have Inter's name engraved on the base of the Champions League trophy!"
Three minutes later, Ye Chen finished his speech.
All the Inter players, all stand up.
Their eyes, flaming.
Previously colorful arrows, light red, yellow, and black.
Right now.
The
Inter players are all raised!
"Good, well
said!" "Milito's words are not worth mentioning, brothers, I like to listen to Ye Chen!" "Ye Chen
, what you said is amazing, unlike Conte, just turn over and over those few words."
"Serie A and the Champions League, Lao Tzu wants them all
!" "Damn, Manchester City are very hanging? How many Champions Leagues have they won? None, we have three Inter, we have a long heritage, none of us are afraid!"
Lautaro made a high jump motion in place and swung his fist into the air.
"I'm going to make the fan who lost my shirt regret, I'm going to score, I'm going to hit him in the face
!" Lukaku slammed his iron fist into the locker cabinet, smashing the roof with a burst of ashes, he yelled:
"I was going to attack last game, not Conte, I want us to replay all of us, otherwise Laozi would have killed Manchester City a long time ago!"
Barrera threw an extra shin guard on the ground, then stomped on it and stomped it off!
"Listen to my brother Ye, big guys, rush together for courage, rush to death Manchester City!!"
The dressing room is full of the smell of male hormones!
