My name is Colani
Chapter 178 Warm-up match with Milan 1
It is August now, and there are still more than 20 days before the opening of the new season. The first game of the C1 League will not start until September 2, while the Serie A League will start a week before.
In early July, Hugo invited Galliani, hoping to play a friendly match with them during the summer training. After watching the derby in Milan, Hugo has been wondering how big the gap between our team and Milan is. He really wants to know, so he made this invitation.
Many Serie A teams will look for warm-up opponents during summer training. It doesn’t matter who the opponent is to them. What’s important is that it can help new coaches to test the training results and find problems. Of course, most of them look for weak teams, because victory can boost the team’s confidence.
Galliani naturally has nothing to say no to. In early August, Milan came to the Pacheco training base for a week of training. Hugo was generous for once, and did not charge Milan a penny, saying that as long as you come here to play the game, it’s fine.
Milan's arrival in Trapani caused a sensation in the city. In Trapani, they had only seen a giant team like Milan on TV, but never saw it in person. The mayor of Trapani, Hugo's uncle, Old Mok, even visited the Milan football team at Pacheco's training base, which was on the front page of New Sports.
August 6 was the day for the friendly match between the two teams at Trapani Stadium. Hugo bought the ticket for this match at a price of 50 euros per ticket, but the fans who risked their lives to accompany the gentleman still flocked to it, and the stadium was full. What made Hugo particularly angry was that half of the fans were Milan supporters, wearing fake jerseys from who knows where, singing and dancing in the stands!
"This group of spineless things! I'm so angry! Next time I'll charge you 100 euros per ticket, and see if you dare to come to the stadium again!" Hugo cursed.
Galliani, who came to watch the game, laughed secretly. He didn't expect that there were still many Milan fans in Trapani.
But he and Hugo thought too much. These fans were just chasing stars. If we really want to talk about feelings, they are definitely not as emotional as their own team.
After sitting down, Hugo said: "Mr. Galliani, you have made a lot of noise in the transfer market this season! You are really rich!"
"Haha, there is no way. You can't win the championship in Serie A without spending money!" Galliani smiled, "To be honest, I still miss those years! We were a powerful team!"
Yes, in those years, they were the price king, but now they are not, the role has been handed over to Lazio.
The current Lazio can't be called the price king. This summer, they sold their team's core player Nedved to Juventus. This season, Lazio obviously seems to be unable to bear it. They have made a lot of moves in the transfer market, but in fact, they have only invested more than 10 million euros.
"Now you are awesome! It's tens of millions at any time. Victor is still too worthless. I should ask you for more!" Hugo showed regret.
"Okay, Gigi, don't complain! You will never get this price from anyone else!" Galliani said to him.
"I think we are good friends! Otherwise, I would not buy it at all. Without Victor, you know how many defenders I have to introduce this season to make up for it!" Hugo said with a smile.
Humph, you are so cheap! Galliani snorted in his heart.
While talking and laughing, the players of both sides have already appeared. Trapani's players are grassroots, while Milan's players are the pride of heaven. After the game started, Milan quickly took the initiative on the court and launched a fierce bombardment on Trapani.
Damn, what kind of stuff is this? ! Is it so bad? ! Hugo cursed in his heart. In Serie C2 and Serie D, Trapani often beat others up, and rarely appeared in the scene of being completely suppressed.
The fans at the scene also made a noise. The better Milan played, the more these fans cheered, as if they were looking forward to Milan scoring a goal.
Turkey's famous coach Terim was on the sidelines, commanding Milan's attack, and was not satisfied with Milan's attack, because after ten minutes, Milan had not scored. You know, he sent two strikers to the court today, and Ukraine's nuclear warhead and Mr. 40 million Inzaghi were both on the court.
"Look at him like that?! He is not satisfied even though he is suffocating us?!" Hugo said unhappily.
"But there is no goal! Mr. Terim's dissatisfaction is justified!" Galliani said with a smile.
Hugo felt really aggrieved, knowing that the team's strength was definitely not as good as others, and Galliani's words also carried a bit of contempt for Trapani, but he could do nothing about it.
Watch the game in silence!
I'm afraid that Trapani's players were busy chasing stars in the past two days. They played very badly on the court and did not play to their full potential. They hesitated, were not decisive enough to pass the ball, were surrounded by several Milan players, lost the passing space, and often made mistakes. Milan got a lot of good opportunities, fortunately there was Kameni who played normally.
Kameni made high catches, attacked and saved in front of the goal, but Shevchenko and Inzaghi were unable to score. Milan actually played quite casually today. After all, it was a friendly match and the last thing anyone wanted was to get injured.
"Hold on, hold on! Don't move! Pass the ball!" Mazzarri put his hands on his side and shouted loudly. The scene was very noisy. He didn't know if the players could hear him. He still sent out 442 today, and Drogba and Toni continued to serve as double center forwards.
However, his tactics today did not fail or not. The players seemed to have changed into a different person, as if they could not play football. This made Mazzarri very depressed. Although you haven't seen any big battles, it's not like this. At this time, he remembered the good of Victor. At least Victor would not be like this, full of courage.
When it was 20 minutes later, I don't know if it was Mazzarri's anxious and angry roar, or the players finally woke up. The scene was finally not as completely one-sided as at the beginning. Trapani was no longer completely passive, but the offense was still greatly restricted.
Mazzarri's tactics were relatively monotonous. He mainly relied on crosses from the wing to let the strong center forwards Toni and Drogba find opportunities.
Miccoli was a striker in Serie B last season, but when he arrived at Trapani, Mazzarri believed more in his double tower tactics last season. The advantage of this tactic is that it is simple and crude. Miccoli is a very comprehensive offensive player with good skills. Mazzarri arranged him in the position of winger, forming two sides with Amor, which is Trapani's double drive on the wing.
But the two sides of this game were very bad. Amor and Miccoli have ability, but Milan's defenders are covered. They are better in overall defense. Trim is not a fool. Mazzarri played two center forwards, and he knew that Trapani would definitely make a fuss on the wing, so he arranged a lot of measures on the wing defense to reduce Trapani's chances of crossing.
Looking at Trapani's two tall center forwards, Trim also knows that even if his defenders are at the Serie A level, it will be equally difficult to fight against them. You can't always hope that these two center forwards have poor ability, right? !
Miccoli played very depressed. Amor is old and his breakthrough ability has greatly decreased. If he is in the league, he may still be good, but he is a little powerless against opponents of Milan's level. All he can do is pass the ball to guide the team. It is definitely not possible to let him break through. The responsibility of Trapani's breakthrough is placed on Miccoli. Miccoli doesn't like this position at all. This position is far away from the penalty area. He is really capable, but after breaking through one, there is another. The passing distance is too long and it is not close to the penalty area, so his characteristics cannot be brought into play.
Last season, Miccoli often had such scenes. He received the pass from his teammates, quickly got rid of the opponent, and then could send a fatal pass or a fatal blow. However, it is not possible now. He is too far away from the goal. He always wants to get closer to the goal, but he is often surrounded and plays very badly.
Victor is sitting on the bench of Milan at this moment, watching the game attentively. Trapani's situation makes him feel uncomfortable. Losing is not terrible. What is terrible is that Trapani was messed up by Milan who did not exert much strength, and his control is quite limited.
"What's the name of your goalkeeper?!" Galliani observed Kameni for a long time and asked.
"Kameni! Idris Carlos Kameni! He is only 17 years old now, don't think of him!" Hugo said unhappily as he looked at the bad condition of the court.
"He is very good! What's rare is that he is very courageous and looks very confident!" Galliani praised.
"He came to the team two years ago, and I spent a lot of money on him. He is our goalkeeper for the next ten years. I will not sell him!" Hugo said, "He is from Cameroon and won the Olympic championship with Cameroon last year! He is the main goalkeeper, and he will be the main goalkeeper of Cameroon in the future!"
Speaking of Kameni, Hugo was still a little proud.
"Gigi, you said he is too young. But these days there is no such thing as a player that is not for sale! Name a price that we can accept. I am willing to buy him and then rent him to you for a few years, free of charge!" Galliani really took a fancy to Kameni. He is so young, not stage-frightened, and has shown very good qualities. He can be used as a reserve main goalkeeper in the future.
