"***Caiser, don't break your promise if you have sex!"
"Do you dare to arrange the starting lineup according to the big list you announced before?"
"You will definitely lose this game, Caesar!"
When the Inter Milan bus slowly drove into the Meazza Stadium, the surrounding AC Milan fans immediately attacked, without exception, targeting Inter Milan's head coach, Yang Cheng.
Especially when Yang Cheng led the players off the bus, there was a booing sound at the scene, but it was soon replaced by the deafening cheers of Inter Milan fans. It was obvious that at the Meazza Stadium, at Inter Milan's home court, the Nerazzurri fans were the protagonists.
"It seems that today will be a wonderful game!" Yang Cheng was very happy.
In the past two days, he simply closed the Pinetina base, refused all media and reporters' interviews, and turned a blind eye to the outside world and focused on practicing derby soldiers.
It makes the outside world mess around now. Who knows what plan he is thinking?
But he could do this, but Trim couldn't.
Just at yesterday's pre-match press conference, Trim was furious and angrily scolded the reporter.
"You guys don't have the power to arrange troops at all. Why do you have to point fingers at our starting lineup? That's my power, and I'll decide the lineup!"
It was obvious that he felt a huge pressure.
But even so, the Turks still expressed confidently that they would definitely win the derby.

Taking advantage of the team's warm-up, the Inter Milan fans who were sitting at home had another direct match with the AC Milan fans, but without exception, the Inter Milan fans who had a decisive advantage in numbers steadily overwhelmed their opponents.
Looking at the stands of the entire Meacha Stadium, the waves of people folded by the Nerazzurri fans, especially the tsunami waves, which completely swallowed up the sounds and movements created by the AC Milan fans.
The loud team sang in the stands, and countless Inter Milan fans stood up from their seats and sang their love and feelings for this club in their hearts. They all wanted to play with the players and fight side by side.
"It is truly worthy of being the famous devil's home court in Europe!" The commentator on the scene couldn't help but be amazed one after another when he saw the movements of Inter Milan fans.
The live TV camera quickly swept into the stands, and Heidi Krum was soon captured in the stands.
This German beauty has always had a close relationship with Yang Cheng, but the two have not clarified anything to the outside world so far. However, without exception, she will appear in the stands for some major competitions to cheer for Yang Cheng.
It used to be in Kaiserslautern, but now it is in Inter Milan!
Of course, it’s not just about capturing Heidi Crum, but others, such as Ronaldo’s wife Mileni, Big Inzaghi’s rumored girlfriend Fontana, Pirlo’s fiancée Deborah, etc.
"There is no doubt that among the wives of the two teams, Caesar's princess is definitely the most dazzling beauty, the world's top supermodel, and the world's well-known show host. Heidi Krum is undoubtedly the most dazzling landscape in the stands!"
Just as the live commentator laughed and joked, Corina led the players from both sides out of the player channel.
In an instant, the entire Meacha Stadium was completely boiling.
"Players on both sides have entered the stadium. For the 9th round of the 2001/2002 Serie A, Inter Milan will face the Milan derby of the city's rival AC Milan at home, and the war will be about to start!"
Players on both sides lined up in front of the passage, with Corina and the assistant referee in the middle.
"From Inter Milan's lineup, Yang Cheng did not break his promise. He really put out his starting lineup announced to the public before, without any adjustments or changes. From this point, we can all feel his absolute confidence in winning this game." The live commentator said in surprise after introducing every Inter Milan player with the camera.
"Acc Milan's starting lineup is goalkeeper Dida, defense players Martini, Raulson and Costakuta, and Trim arranged five midfielders in the midfield, namely Gattuso, Albertini, Karaze and Serginho, while the midfielder is Rui Costa, and the double strikers are still a combination of Inzaghi and Shevchenko."
"There were rumors before that Trim was dissatisfied with Da Inzaghi's frequent off-field life and intends to throw him into the cold palace, but in this critical battle, he still chose Da Inzaghi to start."
After the players on both sides shook hands with each other outside the player passage, they went back to their own half, and the captains of both sides of the court, Nedved and Maldini, went forward to guess the coins and sides.
…………

Yang Cheng looked at AC Milan's starting lineup from a distance and couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.
"It seems that Trim is really as you expected, and he is finally willing to fight!" Paul Baier smiled.
"But he will definitely not let go easily. Just look at his combination of five midfielders!" Yang Cheng was in a relaxed mood.
Although Rui Costa is responsible for the offense, he has a strong ability to connect the midfield and frontcourt. Albertini is responsible for the organization. With a turbulent Gattuso, the two wings are supplemented by the fast Serginho. AC Milan's attack is not simple at all.
With Corina's whistle, AC Milan took the lead in kicking off the ball, took the initiative to push forward, and launched a wave of offensive against Inter Milan.
Soon, AC Milan took advantage of the advantage of taking the lead in kickoff and the advantage of midfield suppression to create an opportunity in the hinterland of Inter Milan.
Serginho tried to forcibly get rid of Cordoba on the left but failed, but stopped and made a cross. Inzagi arrived, but Lucio cleared the ball with a clean and neat relief, destroying the ball, freezing an attack from AC Milan.
But just one minute later, Serginho launched an attack from the left again, and still passed the ball to the middle of the penalty area before Cordoba. Nesta steadily withdrew Shevchenko and headed the ball out of the penalty area.
Rui Costa got the ball outside the penalty area, but did not choose to pass the ball. Instead, he dribbled the ball from the right side of the penalty area. After getting rid of Zambrota's defense, he passed the ball to the middle of the penalty area.
Italian goalkeeper Buffon was very focused. This time he attacked steadily in advance, threw the ball into his arms and pressed it under him.
The stands at the Meacha Stadium were applauding Buffon's outstanding performance!
Although Inter Milan is at a disadvantage, Yang Cheng has always stood steadily on the sidelines because he used the advantage of kick-off to drive a wave of attack, which was already within his expectations.
To put it bluntly, from the moment he decided to introduce his starting list in advance, he was laying a net for Trimb.
"It seems that Gattuso is still cruising on the right side. Karaze was used by Trim as a midfielder, Albertini is responsible for the organization, Rui Costa is responsible for the tandem and the last pass, and Serginho is responsible for the ball to break through. Trim is indeed not simple!" After looking for a few minutes, Paul Bayer finally saw the way of AC Milan's midfield.
Although he had to push out and play, Trim was still not at ease enough. At least he arranged for Karaze, a versatile player, to play the midfielder, which was obviously to ensure the team's defense.
Yang Cheng looked at the situation on the court and was still a little unsatisfied. He walked to the sidelines and waved to Pirlo, signaling him to lean back and try to compress the team's three lines as much as possible. Lucio's position was to move forward to strengthen the midfield defense and interception.
There is a Nedved in front, and Pirlo and Deco behind are also actively standing and assisting in defense. Once Inter Milan's defense line is in place, AC Milan will immediately be curbed as soon as it enters the hinterland. Lucio's range of movement is very large, more like a midfielder.
As for the position where the Brazilian central defender went up, Cordoba leaned towards the middle and gave up the left.
As a result, Serginho began to become active on the left.
In the 11th minute, Serginho dribbled the ball on the left and made a cross. Cordoba's height disadvantage was fully exposed, and he actually made a rare mistake of rushing. Fortunately, Da Inzagi's header missed, and Buffon steadily got the ball.
But Inter Milan's defense was shocked and sweated.
"It seems that Trim has indeed done a very serious study on Inter Milan's deployment of troops. Yang Cheng announced the starting list 48 hours in advance, which is definitely a big failure. At least he gives his competitors enough time to prepare for this tactic."
"From the 10 minutes of the start, AC Milan undoubtedly played more proactively and completely controlled the situation of the game. Inter Milan began to shrink its defense, and it was rare to be in a passive state on the scene!"
The on-site commentator made a joke and analyzed it. Judging from the beginning, Inter Milan was indeed passive.
However, if you carefully watch the expressions of the head coaches of the two teams, it is not difficult to find that Trim's expression is more severe than after the opening, just like his AC Milan is currently at an absolute disadvantage, and you can't see the confidence to win.
On the other hand, Yang Cheng seemed to be in turmoil, but he remained unmoved, as if he was not worried about the team's defense at all. Instead, he chatted with his assistants around him from time to time and pointed out everything on the court, which was very strange.
"Does he plan to continue to let AC Milan attack like this?"
…………
…………
As it turns out, Yang Cheng doesn't need to do anything at all, and the players can understand his ideas.
After a high-profile 15 minutes of the start, AC Milan failed to break through Inter Milan's defense line, and Inter Milan started to enter the rhythm of the game after stabilizing the situation.
At this time, the organization and control capabilities of the two players, Pirlo and Deco, were completely reflected.
A very important point in Trim's tactics in this game is the battle for control of the midfield. He told AC Milan players before the game that they must seize control of the midfield from the beginning of the game, compress Inter Milan's midfield, and directly crush Pirlo and Deco.
However, after 15 minutes of the first passive, Pirlo and Deco quickly regained the rhythm of the game. They snatched the midfield dominance from AC Milan through effective passes, sorting and interspersed the run.
Gattuso is an important piece for Trim to destroy Inter Milan's midfield organization. Yang Cheng knows very well about his favorite player, knows the advantages and disadvantages of Gattuso, and knows how to deal with players of his type.
When Inter Milan controls the ball, the midfielder is the world of Pirlo and Deco. Lucio and Nedved support one after another. The two technical midfielders can always control the ball steadily in their own hands, mobilizing AC Milan's defense, and using repeated passes to make the opponent run away.
AC Milan's midfield is not bad either. Albertini and Rui Costa are also players with full control capabilities. They are also struggling to gain control of the midfield, which makes this game soon enter a stalemate after a 15-minute climax at the beginning of the game.
Both sides fought back and forth for the midfield, and no one was willing to give in!
…………
…………
"It has been 35 minutes since the game was held. Inter Milan has only made one shot so far. On the other hand, AC Milan scored 7 shots in the whole game. Although neither side scored a goal, from the scene, Inter Milan is undoubtedly at a comprehensive disadvantage."
"I wonder if Yang Cheng will regret his decision to announce the starting lineup before the game at this time?"
I believe that at this moment, countless fans in front of the TV and in the stands were also asking the same questions.
After all, more than half an hour passed in the entire first half. Although Inter Milan fought back some of the situation, they were still passive and were suppressed by AC Milan, which is something they have never seen since this season.
All Inter Milan fans have the impression of the team as being positive, proactive, unrestrained and refreshed. How could they be as depressed as in the first half?
However, Yang Cheng, who is always good at commanding in front of the battlefield, seems to have no desire to command today. Although he is still standing on the sidelines, he does not move. He adjusts from time to time, but it is all aimed at defense.
"What the hell is he planning?"
…………
…………
"In the last 5 minutes, AC Milan's pass success rate has dropped from the original 85% to 81%!"
When Yang Cheng came over, Tim Hank immediately gave the answer he wanted.
"In addition, the overall running distance of this team's midfield and backcourt has also dropped by 15%.
After hearing this, Yang Cheng smiled slightly, "It's almost time!"
To be continued...
