Star Coach

Inter Milan won the Champions League and tied the league. The league points lead was eroded on the weekend after the Champions League game.

Mancini is under great pressure. Although the league is still at the top, the team still has to face AC Milan directly at home. If they are not careful, the home game against Milan may become the death knell of this season.

"If we lose, will Moratti spare me?" Mancini muttered, "Maybe, it is only possible if we reach the semi-finals of the Champions League. Otherwise, there is only one way, dismissal."

The points gap is only 3 points, and the pressure on the players in Inter Milan has increased a lot. Not only Mancini, but also the players know Jiangshan's ability. If he continues to fight with Milan, he will generally not fall behind.

Now give him a chance, and still think that he will show mercy? Impossible, everyone is a professional player.

Unfortunately, they miscalculated. Jiangshan's team is also made up of people.

In the 26th round of the league, Milan played away against Palermo and only played 2:2. They did not win. In the standings, they only increased by 1 point.

This news gave Inter Milan the biggest chance. As long as they beat Udinese, they would be able to expand their points advantage immediately, and they would not be passive in the direct confrontation in the 28th round.

Mancini was very excited and kept deploying troops to let all the main players play. "I have only one task, which is to beat the opponent, no matter what the cost."

"You all cheer up, Milan has lost points, we can't lose points anymore. Have you forgotten Jiangshan's smiling face? It's so scary, it's just a monster!"

The players were confused. Was Mancini beaten to collapse by Jiangshan? At the critical moment, he was so rude. Moreover, he seemed very nervous!

Inter Milan was a little flustered. They failed to beat their opponents at home. Ibrahimovic's performance was disappointing. He was defended tightly and failed to find a chance to score.

At the end of the game, Inter Milan 0:0 Udinese, also lost 2 points. The points gap with AC Milan is still 3 points, unchanged.

After AC Milan lost points, Inter Milan also lost points. Just like some time ago, the two teams must have made an appointment.

Moratti wanted to kill someone, but he didn't seize such a good opportunity. "Mancini, isn't he very strong? Why did he end up like this?"

"If we can't make it to the quarterfinals of the Champions League, I will fire him immediately. No matter what the price, Jiangshan must be invited to coach. Isn't Jiangshan's annual salary 10 million euros? I'll give him 12 million euros and see if he comes."

Frustrated, depressed.

Moratti almost called to curse. Needless to say, Mancini locked himself in the room and didn't go out for a long time. The pressure was too great. Especially the pressure of the Champions League and the league came at the same time.

It made him almost breathless.

"Wait, we still have two games against Milan, the Italian Cup final..." Mancini widened his eyes, "If I lose the game, will I be fired?"

"No matter what, I must win the league and the Italian Cup, keep the domestic games, and maybe have a chance to stay."

Jiang Shan looked at the changes in the standings and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Inter Milan showed mercy, otherwise it would be difficult to compete for the championship this season.

In the second round of the Champions League, AC Milan played against Porto at home. It was a calm game. Porto did not have much desire to win. Milan's home control was too strong.

The team coached by Jiang Shan has always been impregnable at home and has not been defeated so far. No matter which team it is, as long as it is his home court, the team has not tasted the fruit of failure. Magical record.

Mourinho once had a 9-year unbeaten home record, and it was a four-nation league. It must be an unprecedented crazy record. Jiang Shan is moving towards the record step by step.

AC Milan easily won 2:1 at home.

In the game, Ronaldo scored again and was replaced at halftime again. His task was to score. Since the team had already secured victory, it was better to save his strength for the game against Inter Milan.

Another goal was a free kick by Ronaldinho. After the winter break, this guy rarely went to the night club. He felt the joy of football and wanted to win the Champions League again with Jiangshan.

No, if he wins the championship this season, it will be Ronaldinho's first Champions League championship. He reached the Champions League final with Manchester United last season and lost to AC Milan led by Jiangshan. The opportunity is in front of him again, and he definitely wants to seize it.

Ronaldo's idea is similar to his. He also wants to seize the last chance at the end of his career. He has never won the Champions League trophy, which is an extremely tempting award. He dreams of it.

Ronaldo has already won the league championship trophy and the World Cup championship trophy. He only needs a Champions League trophy. As long as he has one, he will be satisfied and there will be no regrets in his career.

Kaka seems to be very tired recently. I don't know if there is a problem with his relationship. At least his performance is not as good as before. Ronaldinho has taken away the limelight during this period.

On the court, Ronaldinho controls the rhythm of the game. The core of the frontcourt organization is Ronaldinho. Kaka becomes a little uncomfortable. He becomes a striker and a goal scorer.

AC Milan successfully entered the quarterfinals of the Champions League. Roma defeated Lyon away and also entered the quarterfinals of the Champions League. However, the game waiting for them is not happy at all.

Inter Milan won Valencia at home and struggled to hold the draw away. The 0:0 draw unexpectedly advanced to the quarterfinals of the Champions League. Serie A still has three teams advancing to the quarterfinals of the Champions League.

La Liga was completely wiped out, and all of them were eliminated in the round of 16. It is said that the overall strength of La Liga before Barcelona's rise was really not strong enough.

The other teams that made it to the quarterfinals of the Champions League are Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool, plus Bayern Munich and PSV Eindhoven. PSV Eindhoven eliminated Arsenal with a score of 2:1 at home and 1:0 away.

It is worth mentioning that Chinese player Sun Xiang played for PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League round of 16 and performed well.

Before Inter Milan challenged Inter Milan away, the draw for the quarterfinals of the Champions League was carried out as scheduled. The most eye-catching one was definitely the confrontation between the Premier League and Serie A. If the Premier League wants to reach the top of Europe, the Serie A teams will always be the hurdle to step over.

The draw result will not waste time, and I am too lazy to add words. Milan will play against Bayern Munich, Jiangshan's old rival, in the quarterfinals. After drawing Milan, Bayern coach Otmar Hitzfeld was not very happy, and he was not very sure.

In addition, Inter Milan drew Chelsea from the Premier League, which is more likely to be bad. Roma drew Manchester United, which is not optimistic either. Liverpool was lucky to draw the recognized gift package Eindhoven. Maybe they can really reach the Champions League final this season.

Jiangshan can look forward to the Champions League final as long as they beat Bayern. Maybe this season can really create a record of defending the Champions League. Since the reform of the Champions League, no one has defended the title.
