My name is Colani

Chapter 284 12. Battle with Milan 1

On the same day, Milan also held a pre-match press conference. Milan coach Ancelotti was completely alive last season. Ancelotti was Sacchi's assistant coach in his early years and helped Italy win the runner-up in the World Cup. He was also very successful during his time in Parma and won the Italian Cup and the UEFA Cup.

Because of this, he was favored by the giant Juventus, but the three years in Juventus were extremely depressing for him. He did not win any championship in three years. According to reason, such results naturally could not satisfy Juventus, and Ancelotti could only be dismissed sadly.

Ancelotti was not Milan's choice to be dismissed. Milan's choice was Terim. Unfortunately, the Turkish coach failed to show his strength in Milan and was dismissed midway. Ancelotti took over Milan, but Milan only won the fourth place in the league in the first season.

In the second season, which was last season, Milan finally ranked third, but Ancelotti grabbed the lifeline and successfully won the Champions League. If it weren't for this Champions League, Ancelotti would have a great chance of leaving Milan's position. You know, Milan has invested a lot in the past two years, and Berlusconi will not tolerate a head coach who has no championship for three years.

But Ancelotti won the Champions League, and his position was naturally consolidated. He has renewed his contract with Milan, and now he is full of energy and ambition.

At the press conference, Ancelotti was very polite and said that Trapani has been playing very good football in recent years. He likes Trapani's style and thinks Trapani has the ability to cause trouble for Milan.

But in his heart, Ancelotti doesn't think much of Trapani. He lacks experience, Guardiola is old, Miku is not suitable for Serie A, Toni? ! Sorry, he has never played for a Serie A team at all, and maybe he will be beaten back to his original form this season! Klose, please, this is Italy!

He is not too worried that Trapani will create problems for Milan. He believes that Milan will get off to a good start.

As for Hugo, Ancelotti also spoke nice words at the press conference, saying that Hugo was the coach of Trapani when it was in the amateur league. It is also difficult for amateur teams to upgrade. Hugo has proved his strength and youth is not a problem.

But in his heart, he thinks that Trapani’s biggest weakness is Hugo. It is really ridiculous for the boss to be the head coach!

Don’t blame our Mr. Ancelotti for being proud, because he is indeed the most popular head coach in Italian football now. Hugo’s popularity is more funny to everyone.

On Monday night, September 1, the Barbera Stadium can accommodate more than 30,000 people, but it was already full. Today is not a rest day, but the first game of the new season still attracted many fans from Sicily. These fans are not necessarily Trapani fans. Some of them first support other teams in Sicily, but now Trapani is the only Serie A team in Sicily. From the heart, everyone is still very happy to see Trapani rise in Serie A.

Trapani shouted the slogan "One Sicily, one Trapani, Trapani fights for Sicily!" before the game, which has to be said to be very tempting.

The away team's fan area is also full of Milan fans. These fans are not all from Lombardy, and many are locals. The three northern powers have many fans across the country, unlike Trapani, whose deepest influence is still in Sicily.

In the first match of Serie A, Hugo and Victor's families came to the scene, and Grandpa Pacilio also came. He is not so interested in football, but this match has a different meaning. Hugo's first match as the head coach, the family is very concerned. If you say that you trust Hugo's ability, I am afraid that the most optimistic family will not have a sense of trust in Hugo, but this support is always there.

Hugo's uncle, Giovanni, said in an interview with reporters: "I think Gigi is fine as a head coach. He is a smart child. Look at his great success in business. Since he can succeed in business, he can also do it on the court. Whether he is a boss or a head coach, he can do it well!"

Hugo's mother doesn't watch the game either, but now her son is the head coach himself. His mother is still very worried that her son will be embarrassed. This is not good. Before the game started, his mother Lida showed an anxious mood.

"Relax, dear, you can't watch the game like this! Won't you have a heart attack later?!" Ricardo held his wife's hand and felt very funny.

"How can I not be anxious! What if Gigi performs poorly in this game?! He is a proud child, I am really afraid that he can't withstand such a blow! Milan is a strong team!" Lida knew that Milan was the Champions League champion. Can a team that can win the first place in European football be competed by an "amateur team" like Trapani? !

"Everything on the court depends on the performance on the court. What's wrong with Milan being the champion?! As long as Trapani is well prepared, they can still overturn them! Besides, you think too much. My son is not as fragile as you say!! Since he took the initiative to assume the responsibility of the head coach, he must have made full mental preparations! Look at his business business, isn't he well prepared?! Being the head coach is definitely not a temporary idea, he will definitely do a good job!" Ricardo said confidently.

"What we have to do now is watch this game with a normal mind. As Hugo told me, it doesn't matter whether we win or lose. The most important thing is the process. We want to enjoy football. If you focus all your attention on I think you really have a heart attack on your son!" Ricardo continued to persuade his wife.

Hugo said that he was the head coach for fun, and we came to watch the game just for fun. Why did he make himself so nervous? ! Ricardo shook his head involuntarily. He was very open-minded. Losing to Milan was not a big problem. It was nothing. There were many teams that lost to Milan. Trapani was just after the game. It's just that he will receive some criticism. With his son's mouth, he will definitely retaliate and he will not suffer any loss.

Thinking of this, Ricardo remembered the press conference. His son is really an interesting head coach!

At this moment, the home team's dressing room was about to go out. Hugo clapped his hands and greeted everyone: "Everyone, listen to me while you are getting ready!"

"My only rigid requirement for this game is to play what we showed on the training ground. Winning or losing the game is not important. There are thirty-four rounds in a long season. It is not a shame to lose to Milan in the first round. It doesn’t matter whether you lose more or less, you lose anyway!”

"But if you show no fighting spirit and no desire to win on the court, then I will be very angry. No matter when, we must have fighting spirit and maintain a strong fighting spirit at all times!"

"They are the new Champions League champions. The pressure is on their side, not ours. What are we afraid of? What is there to be afraid of? Speaking of which, most of you guys have experienced the battle we defeated Milan, so they It’s not that scary!”

"On the court, my role as the head coach is very limited, so I have to rely on the big guys! Tell me, do you have the confidence to fight Milan?!" Hugo asked loudly.

"Yes!" Being accustomed to Hugo's collective shouting, everyone's voices were uniform this time.

"That's right! I'm afraid of the ball! I'm not afraid of facing the reporters, the media, and Ancelotti. You're afraid of nothing! I'll give it to you if you beat Milan!" Hugo waved his hand, and all the players All laughed.

The players formed a circle in the locker room at the call of Tony and Victor. Tony did not express any opinion, but led the players to shout "Trapani! Rise up!" three times, which was Trapani. A small pre-game ritual that began from then on.

After they finished shouting, the players left the locker room one after another, and Hugo left Evra and Mascherano alone.

"Javier, you will become the team's main defensive midfielder this season. This is your first Serie A game. What you have to do is very simple, that is, relax a little. Your strengths are your strong ability to attack and speed. Be fast, don't be afraid of fouls, go up boldly, if there is any problem, Victor and Andrea will help you in the defense! You know why I keep you, I am afraid that you will not relax and be too nervous. Wait a minute. There is also a young player Kaka over there, he is your reference, you have to perform better than him!" Hugo encouraged Mascherano, "Be like me on the court, take a deep breath and speak loudly. Just tell yourself I can do it!”

Hugo pretended to teach Mascherano. Mascherano was not the absolute main force last season, Meireles was. Mascherano was used to a limited extent by Zeman. After all, he was too You are young and cannot be rushed.

Mascherano nodded and took the order.

There is only one Evra left. Evra is actually a guy with a big heart and a very pleasant role in the team. Hugo left him alone because he wanted to tell him why I used you in this game.

"Are you afraid?!" Hugo asked.

"Honestly, there is nothing to be afraid of, Mr. Colaini, I am very happy that you chose me as the starter!" Evra expressed his gratitude. He was not the main player last season and did not have many playing opportunities. Grosso is the team As the left back, Evra is only a substitute and faces fierce competition.
