Star Coach

Chapter 348: First Crown

I have to say that Simeone was very lucky, following Jiang Shan's guidance. A 352 formation was arranged to focus on defensive counterattacks in the away game.

Although Inter Milan's offensive power is strong, it is difficult to bomb open space in the face of AC Milan, which is fully defensive.

Neither Ibrahimovic nor Crespo could find a suitable way to score. On the contrary, Inter Milan's defense had many loopholes and was frequently threatened by Thomason and Inzaghi.

Helpless, Mancini can only ask players to return to defense more to ensure the safety of the defense. Mancini had a sad look on his face. He didn't expect Jiang Shan to be so shameless. He was obviously a head coach who was known for his offense, but he actually defended Inter Milan's home court?

Come on, this is the Italian Cup final. Is it interesting to stick to it?

"Shameless, really shameless." Mancini gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, helpless.

Simeone exclaimed from behind, "No wonder Jiangshan asked me to put Inzaghi in the starting position. When he is in the frontcourt, Inter Milan players do not dare to press heavily. He is indeed a man who lives on the offside line."

Both sides were anxious, and the score never changed.

The 0:0 score had lasted for most of the half, with neither side able to score. Jiangshan took the lead in making substitutions, replacing the exhausted Thomasson with Vieri.

Mancini was in a mood, and the opportunity came. As long as Vieri doesn't track back, they have an advantage in the midfield and will definitely score.

However, the position assigned by Jiangshan to Vieri was not as a striker, but as an attacking midfielder...

A large defensive player who stays near the midfield and likes to cover horizontally and only has a few shots on goal.

Simone didn't expect Jiangshan to arrange it like this. Isn't it too vicious? Actually holding on to the end?

"Is Jiangshan endorsing me? He has implemented my tactical arrangements to the end, giving me confidence?" Simeone was very happy in his heart and felt proud. "As long as Jiangshan leads the team to win the championship, he will recommend it to the team's top management. I became the head coach of AC Milan, and maybe my brilliant career as a head coach started.”

I have to say that Simeone is lucky, at least he can win the championship.

Inter Milan kept attacking and struggled with AC Milan, but neither side was able to score. In the 81st minute, Inzaghi scored a goal, but the referee ruled it offside.

Slow-motion replay, it’s really hard to say whether this goal was offside... Anyway, many of Inzaghi’s goals are like this.

At the end of the game, the result of the two sides was still 0:0.

Inter Milan drew with AC Milan at home and lost 1:2 away from home, losing to AC Milan by a big score of 1:2.

In the two rounds of the Italian Cup final in the 2006-2007 season, Milan won the final victory and won the Italian Cup championship trophy.

The moment the referee's whistle blew, Jiang Shan raised his arms in a simple celebration, then turned around and hugged Simeone who rushed over.

"Congratulations, your tactics were successful and you won the Italian Cup." Jiang Shan encouraged with a smile.

"Actually, this is all your credit. If it weren't for your adjustments, I would definitely have changed the original tactics. I didn't expect that you saw through Mancini's weaknesses." Simeone said with admiration.

"Don't rush to brag about me. Wait until you win the Champions League final before bragging. Liverpool is not easy to deal with."

"I know, and we still have the league championship to fight for." Simeone was full of enthusiasm. "Mancini is here, and he will definitely want to fight you."

Jiang Shan smiled and shook hands with Mancini, "Actually, all the tactics for today's game were designed by Mr. Simeone. I think his tactics are good. I can definitely compete with you next season."

"Hmph, we don't have to wait until next season. We will definitely win the league championship. In the last three rounds of the league, you'd better not lose points, otherwise the championship will be ours."

"Uh... let's work together." Jiang Shan didn't know what to say, so he could only encourage Mancini.

Mancini's face was ugly. He felt that his end was approaching and he was no longer confident about his position as Inter Milan's coach. If he fails to win the league title, he can think of Moratti's crazy face with his eyes closed.

Moratti was in the box, flanked by Betu and Galliani.

"You won, you are lucky." Moratti tried his best to maintain his grace, poured a glass of red wine, and took a sip. "But we will definitely win back the league championship."

"I guess when Jiangshan and Mancini shook hands just now, they were talking about the league championship." Beitu said proudly, "But I believe in Jiangshan, none of us can compare with you. The only advantage is the coach comparison. You are better."

"With an annual salary of 10 million euros, we will also give him a large bonus for each championship trophy. If Jiangshan wins the Triple Crown this year, we may have to pay him 20 million euros." Beitu poured himself a glass , "Jiangshan won three championships at the beginning of the season, and I gave him a total reward of nearly 3 million euros. Only I can do such a feat in Italy."

"And, I dare say, I am the only one in Europe who dares to do this."

"But I heard that Jiangshan will leave at the end of the season. He promised to bring Milan back to the top, the Triple Crown, the first Triple Crown in Serie A. Is there any reason not to leave?" Moratti sneered. , he knew in his heart that the country was about to leave, so he was ready to poach people.

Poach people at all costs.

"You don't have to worry about whether Jiang Shan will stay or go. No team in Europe dares to give him such a high salary, I believe it."

Jiangshan is celebrating the championship with its players, the first championship in the final stage of this season. The Coppa Italia, followed by Serie A.

After winning the Italian Cup, the news that Jiangshan was about to leave AC Milan spread like wildfire.

But the next club was confusing. Jiangshan was too lazy to respond, and just held a simple meeting internally. If he wanted to leave, he would consider it only after winning all the championships. Now he has a one-year contract with Milan, and no one has to worry.

In addition, Galliani and Beto also kept communicating with Jiangshan, hoping that he would continue to stay in Milan and create the most brilliant record.

"Money is not a problem, we will spend money to buy the best players."

"As long as you stay, we will give you the greatest authority."

Jiangshan continued to recommend Simeone, "Simeone can lead Milan to continue to succeed, and it will be difficult for others."

"Moreover, next season, Mancini will be fired. If Inter Milan has internal chaos, it will be the best time for AC Milan to easily take over."

Galliani failed to communicate, but he also considered letting Simeone try to coach Milan. He is also familiar with Milan, especially when Milan encountered the phone gate, Simeone took the initiative to stay in the team and help the team through the difficulties.

This righteous approach left a good impression on the top management of AC Milan.

In the last few league games of the season, AC Milan faced Catania, Udinese and Reggina. Jiang Shan carefully rotated the players and won the games at the lowest cost.

The team had already lost Kaka and Gattuso and could not afford to make any more changes.
