Chapter 417

Regarding the European war, the time has to be set back to the winter break and before Tardelli. At that time, in the Champions League qualifying round, Inter Milan led by Silver Fox Lippi was defeated by Swedish top star Helsingborg (note, not Rosenborg).

) was eliminated in an upset, which directly led to Lippi's dismissal.

After being eliminated from the Champions League, Inter Milan had to commit to the UEFA Cup. But even in the second heavyweight UEFA Cup, the Tardelli Nerazzurri stumbled. They were almost defeated by the Eredivisie in the second round of the UEFA Cup.

The mid-table team Arnhem was eliminated. In the first round at Meazza, it was 0:0. In the second round, the opponent scored one goal in Arnhem. In the crisis, Croatian defender Simic received a pass from Seedorf in the penalty area and volleyed.

Goal, Inter Milan advanced due to more away goals.

In the first leg of the third round of the UEFA Cup, they played against the Bundesliga powerhouse Hertha Berlin, 0:0 in the first leg. In the second round, Turkish striker Hakan Suker scored the winning goal 1 minute before the end of the game, leading to a thrilling 2-1 total.

The score advanced to the top 16.

In the quarter-finals draw before the winter break, Inter Milan was unanimously considered to have the upper hand because their opponent Alaves was a rookie playing in European competition for the first time.

Of course, until now, with only two days before the game, Inter Milan is still favored by everyone, but Jiang Mu knows that if he hadn't taken over Inter Milan, the Nerazzurri of Tardelli in his previous life would have been eliminated by this La Liga team.

The dark horse was eliminated, which caused a defection from Inter Milan fans, but there was no big trouble because there were very few fans in that game. Only 9,000 people came to the Meazza Stadium with 80,000 people. It can be seen that the fans were already sad.

To what extent.

In addition to Inter Milan, Barcelona is also a good draw. Their opponent is Greece's Aek Athens team. The most unfortunate ones are of course Roma, which ranks first in Serie A, and Liverpool, one of the four giants in England.

The battle between Roma and Liverpool is also very sensational in the Champions League, so their game has become the focus of the quarter-finals.

Another Serie A team, Parma, is not weak either. They are the Eredivisie giants Eindhoven. The other duels are Porto (Portugal) vs. Nantes (France), Stuttgart (Germany) vs. Vigo-

Celta Vigo (Spain), Slavia Prague (Czech Republic) vs Kaiserslautern (Germany), Rayo Vallecano (Spain) vs Bordeaux (France).

Alaves Football Club is a football club located in Vitoria, Basque Country in northern Spain. They are a typical small club with a small stadium, little reputation, little income, and a short history in the First Division. The only record they are proud of is the last one.

Ranked sixth in La Liga this season. For such a super star to challenge the big international, there is no suspense for outsiders. The only interesting thing is how the tough Basques will resist Inter Milan at home.

Rape.

Facing the brutal Jiang-style Inter Milan, Alaves coach Mane was a little unsure. He was not worried about losing, but worried that the team would score a double-digit score after two rounds, because under the leadership of Jiang Mu, this team

Inter Milan is too cruel. The smallest score is 3 goals. They are still playing against a strong Serie A team with excellent defense. In addition to the huge gap in strength, Inter Milan also has the advantage of playing away first. How can this not make Atletico feel chilled?

Although there is a huge difference in strength, because Inter Milan is the team most likely to be upset in the European competition in recent years, the Spanish media, in order to cooperate with Alaves' preparations, set off a smoke screen before the game, vigorously boasting about Inter Milan's coaches and players, hoping that

This can make your opponent dizzy.

Spanish media believe that if Alaves wants to win, they must first target Vieri. Vieri, who has scored every game in recent rounds, is the most critical figure in Inter Milan's forward line. Maybe he will not target Vieri in the 80 minutes of the game.

Liverpool poses a threat, but as long as he is given a chance, the consequences will be disastrous.

The Spanish media praised Moratti for his decisive dismissal of Tardelli in the middle of the season and the introduction of Jiang Mu. They praised Jiang Mu for his magic. They believed that age, qualifications, time and nationality were not obstacles to Jiang Mu's success. Jiang Mu started with five consecutive victories.

Mu has become the spiritual leader of Inter Milan.

Jiang Mu and his disciples flew to Vitoria, the capital of the Basque Country and Alava Province in Spain, under the adulation of Italy at home and Spain abroad.

In Spain's 506,000 square kilometers of land, the Basque Country is the most mysterious corner. So far, anthropologists have not figured out where the indigenous people here originated.

Where did the indigenous inhabitants originate? Linguists are also confused as to what language family the Basque language belongs to. Existing research only tells us: Surrounded by insurmountable mountains and jungles, the Basque nation has always existed in isolation.

For hundreds of years, it was not until around the 12th century AD that it was included in the territory of the Kingdom of Castile.

The beautiful and prosperous Basque Country is located in northwest Spain and has three majestic cities: Bilbao, the capital of Biscay province, San Sebastian, the capital of Gibuscoa province, and Vitoria, the capital of Álava province.

These three cities gave birth to three teams, Alaves in Victoria City, Athletic Bilbao in Bilbao City, and Real Sociedad in San Sebastian City. They were opposed to each other, but they also had the same reason.

tied together by a piece of land.

Athletic Bilbao was founded the earliest and has the greatest achievements. It has won 8 league championships, 23 cup championships and has never fallen out of Serie A. Real Sociedad is second, and its achievements are also second, but it has also won the league and cup.

In terms of experience, only Alaves had the worst experience. Their city's economy, population and culture were no worse than the other two, but they didn't have any honors in football.

The game against Inter Milan greatly aroused the fighting enthusiasm and passion of Basque fans. Although the media regarded Inter Milan as aliens and the Warcraft Legion, the fans of Alaves were very eager to fight and were not afraid at all.

, when Inter Milan's big-name players landed at the airport, in addition to Inter Milan fans to pick them up, there were also thousands of die-hard Alaves fans. They carried banners saying "This is hell for the visiting team" and shouted

Italians are cowards slogans, demonstrated to Inter Milan players.

The players of Inter Milan are certainly not intimidated by their opponents. After five consecutive victories, this team has never been as confident as it is now. The UEFA Cup championship has become their biggest goal. It is a pity that they cannot play in the Champions League, otherwise they think they can win it.

There is no problem with winning the Champions League.

"We are here to win."

"Is there any doubt about who wins and who loses?"

"We respect our opponents, but we believe in ourselves more."

"Barcelona is the right opponent for us."

Facing the reporters who came to interview, Inter Milan's big-name players were full of arrogance and confidence.

However, Inter Milan's head coach Jiang Mu was uncharacteristically low-key. He told reporters that Alaves should not be underestimated. They have good strength. Top scorer Morano has scored 16 goals and ranks first in La Liga's scorer list. He is a dangerous figure.

Inter Milan must not underestimate them just because they are not well-known, otherwise they will definitely suffer, and it is not impossible to even be eliminated.

When Jiang Mu said these words, what flashed in his mind was the brilliant record behind this dark horse in his previous life. During the promotion process, Alaves defeated Inter Milan 5:3 in the fourth round and won an incredible victory in the semi-finals.

They defeated the Bundesliga powerhouse Kaiserslautern 9-2, and the final went into overtime before losing to the Red Army Liverpool 4:5 with a goal. The tenacity and bloodiness of the Basques were fully demonstrated in this UEFA Cup.

But reporters and fans didn't know that. They thought Jiang Mu said something complimentary or even ironic. The famous newspaper "El Pais" in the Basque Country said in a comment the next day that Jiang Mu was sarcastic and sarcastic about Alaves.

, calling on Alaves’ players to show Basque blood and defend the dignity of Basque football, made Jiang Mu dumbfounded.

The Hilton Hotel where Inter Milan is staying is near the Plaza Mayor in the city center. This is a square as large and gorgeous as the Plaza Mayor in Madrid. Their names are exactly the same. There are dozens of high-rise buildings near the hotel, and it has a very modern atmosphere.

It's dense, but it's clean and beautiful, and the greenery is great.

After warming up at the Mendizorosa Stadium in Alaves, which can accommodate 19,000 people, the team returned to the hotel for dinner and a shower. Jiang Mu held an emergency team affairs meeting.

After all 18 players arrived at the conference room on the second floor of the hotel, Jiang Mu didn't speak, and assistant coach Baresi didn't say anything. He just turned on the video recorder and started playing the video for the players.

This is a video of Alaves' promotion to the UEFA Cup. In the first round, Alaves beat Gacinta of the Turkish Super League, 4:3. Alaves narrowly defeated. In the second round, Alaves played against Lilles of the Norwegian Super League.

In Trom, Alaves almost defeated their opponents 5:3 in two rounds to advance. In the third round, Alaves challenged Swedish giant Rosenborg. In the end, they easily defeated their opponents 4:2 in two rounds and advanced to the top 16.

.

After playing the video, Jiang Mu gave the players half a minute to think, then stood up, wrote the four numbers 3, 6, 13, 2.1 on the tactical board, and then said: "Three rounds and six games.

Alaves scored 13 goals, averaging more than two goals per game. This is their attacking power..."

At this point, the players had a look of disdain on their faces, and they were all talking absentmindedly, because they had all watched the video after these five rounds. Inter Milan averaged five goals per game, and its offensive power was appalling. In terms of offense,

Do they still climb Araves?

"Looking at the numbers alone, Alaves is not as powerful as us in attack, but this must be considered in the context of specific games. Most of Alaves' games were stable in the first round and scored fewer goals, while in the second round

If you give it a try, the scores are usually big. For example, against Rosenberg, 1:1 in the first round, and easily win 3:1 in the second round, against Lillestrom, 2:2 in the first round, and 2:2 in the second round.

It was an easy 3:1 win. In the first round with Gacinta, the first round was 0:0, and in the second round they scored 4 goals. In other words, when Alaves broke out, their attack power was very powerful, and the same was true.

How many goals did we score against the Swedish team against Helsingborg, and how many goals did Alavés score against Rosenborg, who was stronger than Helsingborg?"

Jiang Mu's words touched on Inter Milan's pain point, because they failed to score a single goal in shame and were eliminated by their opponents.

Jiang Mu saw the players were silent and said: "Watch their game carefully until it is imprinted in your mind, and then go to sleep. You should use your full strength to fight the lion, and you should use your full force to fight the rabbit. If we want to win the championship, we must

Never underestimate the enemy."
