Chapter 915 I'm Sorry
At the end of the game, Manchester United defeated defending champion Inter Milan 2-1 away, avenging last season's revenge.
Inter Milan lost both the scene and the result. The players played a frustrated and hoped for promotion was slim. Except for Zanetti and Etoo who came to say hello to Gao Xiaodong, the newcomer Coutinho came to ask Gao Xiaodong to exchange jerseys. The others didn't even say hello to Gao Xiaodong and went back to the locker room with their heads in hunched.
Gao Xiaodong didn't care. He understood the mood of his former teammates. No one would feel good if he changed him, let alone the defending champion who regarded himself as a very high-profile person.
"Coutinho, play well, keep working hard, I believe you will become the new core of Inter Milan."
Gao Xiaodong handed his ordinary jersey to Coutinho and encouraged him.
However, Gao Xiaodong is not too exaggerated. A young man like Coutinho is talented and ambitious. As long as his luck is not bad, he has great hope of getting on the top in Inter Milan.
"Thank you, Brother Gao, you played better than me in this game." Coutinho was so excited that he held Gao Xiaodong's jersey in his arms. Although Gao Xiaodong was only two years older than him, he always regarded Gao Xiaodong as the object of his imitation.
"Then you work hard in the next game, I'll wait for you in Old Trafford." Gao Xiaodong blinked and said to Coutinho in a narrow voice.
Coutinho felt a little embarrassed and said, "I may not have a chance to play in the next game."
"Then be prepared actively and believe in yourself. With your performance today, there will be a chance in the next game."
Gao Xiaodong did not say anything to Coutinhodo, and after encouraging him, he went over to accept interviews from reporters who had been anxiously waiting.
This game is also the first time Gao Xiaodong has returned to Meacha after leaving Inter Milan. The media and fans have a lot of speculation about what kind of performance he will perform in this game before the game.
Some people think that Inter Milan knows the bottom of Gao Xiaodong, and it is definitely not easy for Gao Xiaodong to score in Meacha; some people think that Gao Xiaodong is an all-round fighter, and it is not easy for Inter Milan to defend Gao Xiaodong.
After the game, Gao Xiaodong proved with practical actions that he could not keep an eye on it. He made great contributions on both offense and defense, scoring a goal, and another goal was also Rooney scored after he shot.
The first question of the reporter was to ask Gao Xiaodong how he felt after scoring the goal.
Gao Xiaodong replied: "I felt very conflicted at that time, both happy and sad. What I was happy was that I scored the goal, what I was sad was that I scored the goal. If possible, I hope Inter and Manchester United will advance. Now, I can only say, I am sorry."
Then Gao Xiaodong explained why he did not celebrate after scoring the goal. "That was respect for Inter Milan fans. They gave me a lot and I got a lot here. When I arrived in Milan, there were still many Inter Milan fans who picked me up. They gave me the same feeling as a family, and I had to respect them. But I wanted to win, to reach the Champions League final and win the championship for Manchester United fans, so I had to score a goal."
The reporter asked Gao Xiaodong how different he felt when he returned to Meicha.
Gao Xiaodong replied: "Even if I am a Manchester United player now, I still feel like a home court when I come to Meacha. Whenever I complete a beautiful move, I think the fans of both sides will applaud me in their hearts. There are many times when I even think I am playing a training game at Inter Milan."
When the reporter asked Gao Xiaodong what he thought about the 2:1 score, Gao Xiaodong said that this was a very good score. This score means that Manchester United can advance even if they lose 0:1 at home, which can greatly alleviate the psychological pressure of the players.
To put on the captain's armband in this game, Gao Xiaodong expressed his gratitude to head coach Ferguson, "I was surprised. This is the first time I have become the captain on the court. We have always been Vidic and Ferdinand. As the captain on the court, I feel that it is definitely different from the team I have played for. Thanks to the coach for giving me this opportunity. I believe he did not disappoint."
Gao Xiaodong was unwilling to say more about the problems existing in Inter Milan. He said implicitly: "I am no longer an Inter Milan player. It can be said nonsense, but I am still as a former Inter Milan player, so I must be cautious. I think Inter Milan is still in strength, and they are still among the best teams in Europe. They just won the Club World Cup, which is the best proof. As for why the league's performance is so poor, I think it is a matter of mentality. The fans, players and coaches are too anxious. Adjust their mentality. Inter Milan is still very strong."
Regarding whether to return to Inter Milan, Gao Xiaodong replied: "It is hard to say the future, no one is God, but I am very happy at Manchester United now and have no idea of leaving."
The reporter asked Gao Xiaodong how he evaluated Coutinho and whether he had any advice to Inter Milan's Hope Star.
Gao Xiaodong said: "When I didn't leave Inter Milan, I had contact with Coutinho. He is a very skilled and very smart person. He keeps pursuing progress and his future is very bright. I think he needs to constantly improve himself and fill his shortcomings. At the same time, try to compete as much as possible. Only in the competition can he truly improve."
When Gao Xiaodong returned to the locker room after the interview, he met Chairman Moratti in the mixed channel.
Morati just came out of the locker room. His hair was gray and his expression looked very disappointed. He was much older and haggard than when he won the triple crown last season.
The two of them looked at each other and were stunned for a moment. Then Morati took the lead and said, "Hello Xiaodong, welcome home."
Gao Xiaodong smiled, "Thank you, Chairman, I do feel like home when I come to Milan. Inter Milan fans and players are good to me."
Morati sighed, "Actually, I don't want you to come back, because your threat is too great. Your return means that our hope of winning is less than three points. Inter Milan needs a victory now."
Gao Xiaodong also sighed and said regretfully: "Chairman, I'm sorry, I have no choice."
Morati waved his hand and said, "You can't blame me. As a Manchester United player, you're doing it perfectly now, just like you did in Inter last year. The only thing I regret and regret is that you didn't leave you."
Gao Xiaodong smiled bitterly and said, "The Chairman is holding back his own fault. It's not that you didn't stay, it's that I insisted on leaving."
Morati shook his head and vented his emotions on his own, "No, I think I didn't do my best. What I admire most are players like Ronaldo, Messi, and Ronaldinho. You are not my favorite type. Think about it now, maybe you are the person Inter Milan needs the most..."
Gao Xiaodong listened quietly and did not interrupt.
After talking for a while, when seeing both head coaches coming out to attend the post-match press conference, Morati patted Gao Xiaodong on the shoulder and said, "Goodbye Xiaodong, if you don't leave tomorrow, go to my house for a cup of coffee."
Gao Xiaodong bowed slightly and said, "Okay, if I don't leave, I will definitely visit you."
