Chapter 658 civil unrest
When the whistle sounded in the first half, Inter Milan fans did not cheer, but sat in their seats as if they were free. The pace of the attack just now was too fast and thrilling, and their brains had no time to think. Until now, they realized that Inter Milan was leading by 4 half-balls, and even if Barcelona scored a goal, it would be no big deal.
Inter Milan players were soaked in sweat and were as tired as hollowed out sacks. Although they were a lot ahead, if Barcelona scored another goal, there would still be many variables in the second half. If they withstand these ten minutes, the overall situation would be basically determined.
Mourinho stood at the door of the visiting team's locker room and applauded and welcomed the players and hugged each player.
When Gao Xiaodong arrived, Mourinho hugged Gao Xiaodong tightly again and said in Gao Xiaodong's ear: "Good!"
Mourinho doesn't believe that Gao Xiaodong's skill has improved one level. He believes that Gao Xiaodong is a so-called big-scene player and performs extraordinaryly in extreme situations.
Gao Xiaodong is also very tired. In addition to being physically tired, his brain is even more tired. After upgrading to S level, Gao Xiaodong felt that his brain was more used because he had to constantly calculate the running positions of his teammates and opponents on the field and judge the opponent's offensive intentions. This massive calculation made his brain unable to bear it. At level A, he used his body and experience to play football more.
Faced with Mourinho's praise, Gao Xiaodong said in a dry voice: "The battle is not over yet."
Mourinho smiled and said confidently: "The opponent is already struggling to death, so it's not to be afraid!"
After the players returned to the locker room, Mourinho and the coaching staff and masseurs helped the players recover their physical fitness, briefly commented on the situation in the first half, and then began to arrange the tactics for the second half.
Of course, Inter Milan cannot have any other ideas. They can only defend themselves and rely on Gao Xiaodong and Etoo to counterattack if they have a chance. Unless the opportunity is good, they will not invest more than 4 troops.
Then there are some skills beyond technology, such as fouls, delaying time, creating conflicts, etc. As long as it can interrupt the opponent's rhythm and spend time, you can do everything you can.
Mourinho is a pragmatic coach. As long as he is within the scope of the rules, he doesn't care whether the methods look good or not.
The visiting team was peaceful, but a "war" almost broke out in the home team's locker room.
The origin of the contradiction is that Guardiola intends to replace Ibrahimovic with the young prince Boyan in youth training.
Ibrahimovic performed averagely in the first half and was almost invisible, but his performance against Inter Milan in the first round was quite good. At least he was willing to drag his body close to two meters to press and move back to defense.
But Guardiola believes that his performance is not worth a worth of 60 million yuan and an annual salary of 10 million yuan, so he decided to use his own youth training player.
Ibrahimovic hopes to cleanse his stigma of the Champions League in this game. He brags about his bad reputation before the game. He performed poorly in the first half and was about to explode in the second half. Unexpectedly, Guardiola actually wanted to replace him.
Ibrahimovic was furious and stood up with a slap in his seat, "Coach! Why should I replace me? Who is better here than me?"
Guardiola looked dull, "Zlatan! This is a tactical need!"
Of course Ibrahimovic didn't believe this lie and said angrily: "The bullshit tactics are needed! I refuse! I must be on the court in the second half."
Guardiola said coldly: "I am the team's head coach!"
Ibrahimovic clenched his fists and shouted: "Guardiola! Don't think I don't know what you are thinking in your mind. You just want Messi to play center and squeeze me away!"
Barcelona players originally wanted to go over and dissuade Ibrahimovic, but they stopped hearing him attack Messi directly.
Guardiola is popular, "Zlatan! Pay attention to how you speak! I have given you a shame. You know more than anyone else how you play yourself?"
Ibrahimovic sneered: "Your tactics were restrained by Mourinho, and he even pushed the mistake on me. Barcelona lost 4 goals. Could it be that Ibrahimovic alone?"
As the saying goes, "Ibrahimovic is not a face slap." Ibrahimovic is a face slap, especially in front of the players and coaches of the Barcelona team. Guardiola was angry, "Ibrahimovic! Remember your identity! I have a share in the mistake of losing, and you have a share. Since you think I am a coach, you should not play in the subsequent games!"
Ibrahimovic was furious and strode towards Guardiola, pointing at Guardiola and said, "Guardiola! I am not a clay man at your mercy. If you want to plot against me, I will let him know how powerful I am."
Guardiola is not a person who is afraid of trouble either, "I want to see how powerful you are."
Ibrahimovic raised his fist and said, "Believe it or not, I will beat you up."
When Ibrahimovic walked towards Guardiola, the Barcelona players felt something was wrong. Puyol, Pique, Xavi and others rushed over and stopped between Ibrahimovic and Guardiola.
"Everything is gone."
"The enemy is in front of you, and you can say something."
"What do you think of doing it?"
"Zlatan, how can you treat the coach like this."
...
Many people in the locker room were led by Guardiola from youth training, and they had a good relationship with Guardiola. Ibrahimovic also knew that fighting could not take advantage. He just got so angry that he lost his mind. Seeing so many people fighting, Ibrahimovic sneered, "Guardiola! You can't beat Mourinho without me!" After that, he turned around and left the locker room.
Guardiola's face turned pale, but he still suppressed the anger and said to the players with a hoarse voice: "Don't pay attention to him, I'll set up the tactics below..."
Naturally, the VIP room didn't know what was happening in the locker room, and Laburta was having a cordial conversation with Morati.
As a businessman, Laburta abandoned the fantasy of promotion after Gao Xiaodong scored. What he wants most now is to convince Moratti to sell Gao Xiaodong to Inter Milan.
Although Laburta had the idea of buying Gao Xiaodong with liquidated damages, if he could spend less money, his initiative would be greater.
"Sell Xiao Dong Gao to us, you can open the price at will." Raburta said.
Morati was excited. Now whoever wants to buy Gao Xiaodong will not sell it. "Xiaodong is not a product, and he will be the banner of Inter Milan in the future."
Laburta smiled and said, "Not selling products? But Xiao Donggao's liquidated damages are only 80 million. Once any club starts the liquidated damages, you can't decide."
Morati was stunned for a moment, secretly hated Mendes in his heart. If it weren't for him delaying, he renewed the contract for Gao Xiaodong during the winter break period, and the liquidated damages were raised to 100 million or even 100 million. Inter Milan would have the initiative, but he still said firmly: "Then you will take out the liquidated damages, but I'm afraid that you will pay the liquidated damages, and Xiaodong may not leave Inter Milan."
Laburta showed a kind smile, "Massimo, we are good friends, Barcelona and Inter Milan are also friendly clubs. Without Etoo we gave you, you may not be so smooth this season." Speaking of this, Laburta really wanted to slap himself in the face, but he would even exchange Etoo for Ibrahimovic with Etoo. "If there is a club such as Real Madrid, which has activated Gao Xiaodong's liquidated damages, I'm afraid you can't keep it."
Morati was stunned. Real Madrid was rich and had a good platform. Under the economic crisis, Italy's assets were also shrinking. It was really impossible to compete with Real Madrid. If Real Madrid really did this, who would guarantee that Gao Xiaodong would not be moved?
Laburta smiled and said, "Massimo, I have a good idea. If you sell Xiaodong to Barcelona, I can continue to complete the transaction in cash and players. I can guarantee that Xiaodong will definitely sell it at a price of more than 80 million liquidated damages."
Morati pondered. It was not that he wanted to sell Gao Xiaodong, but that Gao Xiaodong's liquidated damages were too low. Inter Milan was very passive. If a wealthy family like Real Madrid and Barcelona or a rich man like Manchester City directly paid the liquidated damages. Just like Inter Milan bought Gao Xiaodong from Porto through liquidated damages last year, then Gao Xiaodong, with a potential of more than 80 million euros, could only sell 80 million yuan. Laburta's proposal is very beneficial to Inter Milan. With cash plus players, and high quality of players, just like Etoo, Inter Milan may sell at a higher price than 80 million yuan.
When Laburta saw Moratti pondering, his smile became stronger. He knew that this was an unsolvable situation for Inter Milan, and the plan he provided was the most beneficial plan for Inter Milan. Inter Milan took advantage of such a plan last season. If Moratti was a little rational, he should agree.
But Morati is not the rational Morati now. He pondered for a moment and said firmly: "No, I will never sell Gao Xiaodong. If anyone wants to buy him and he wants to leave, then he will get a penalty for liquidated contract, and no coin can be left."
