On February 12th, something big happened, and the three-body problem issued a report that Atletico Madrid striker Morata, who has performed bravely this season, was injured! In the match against Sevilla that day, the Spaniard suffered a serious collision with his right knee, and even cried uncontrollably when he left the game. It is almost certain that he will miss at least the first leg of Atletico Madrid's Champions League tie.
It stands to reason that a Spanish striker is injured and will not make a big move, and Italy attaches so much importance to it, and the reason is very simple, Inter's next opponent in the Champions League knockout round is Atletico Madrid.
The Nerazzurri have been on a good run in the home league recently, and the Italians are hoping for a Serie A team that will represent the Serie A side that has been in the doldrums in recent years to achieve a good result in the Champions League. The injury of the opponent's main striker Morata is undoubtedly a good thing for Inter. Although we don't rejoice at the injury of any of the best players, it can't be helped, the butt decides the head, and I'm still happy to see Atletico's main player out injured. This is a fact, and it doesn't need much to hide.
It is worth mentioning that Lazio, which has always been called "the Champions League going through the motions", defeated Bayern Munich in the first leg of the knockout round, and the author even speculates that if Tuchel does not get out of class, Bayern can reverse the Blue Eagles at home, and perhaps even the most loyal Bayern diehards do not have much confidence.
Next, something interesting happened. Just yesterday, another medical miracle occurred - after ruling out the possibility of a cruciate ligament tear, Morata completed the ** process of collateral ligament strain in 7 days, according to ** report: Morata has not only gotten rid of the injury trouble, but also completed the first team training earlier today, very likely to catch up with the first leg of the Champions League with Inter Milan, and even did not rule out the possibility of starting in the game.
Obviously, we are almost certain that the extent of Morata's previous injuries was deliberately exaggerated by Spain, a smoke-bomb tactic used by all sides before the Focus Campaign. As for Inter, Acerbi was examined at the Humanitas hospital and showed a slight tension in the soleus muscle of his right leg, which will be assessed daily in the future. With the absence of the league game against Salernitana, there is a big question mark over whether Acerbi will be able to make it in time for the Champions League knockout rounds in midweek.
In the face of Atletico Madrid's smoke bombs, it is unknown whether Inzaghi's tactical targeting has been affected. However, the author believes that if the lagging central defender Acerbi can return in time, then it should not be too difficult to keep Morata against one-on-one, at least there is no risk of being blown up by the opponent. I'm afraid, the opponent's "double-backfooted" striker has started, and Inter Milan is missing the main "donkey", which may bring a lot of negative uncertainties.
Let's look at it, the first ** is expected to have news tomorrow.
I believe that a lot of Neira watched last night's game, Milan was unexpectedly won by the younger brother Monza with a score of 4-2, the two sides have come and go, and the game scene is very good. In particular, Jovic's big mouth can be called a classic in the mouth world, which is not only stable and ruthless, but also extremely hidden and sudden. To be honest, the author watched the slow motion twice, and I didn't see what was happening, but I still went to watch the barrage to know, good guy, this big mouth, is more honest than the second uncle who smoked "Hawking" from the second aunt.
I have to say that both the result and the score are very surprising, you know, before that, Monza has never defeated AC Milan in all competitions, and three of them lost in direct dialogue in the league; Although there is a home advantage in this game, Monza have only won 4 of the 12 league home games this season, and there have been as many as 5 draws; Monza's attack is weak, with only 6 goals scored in the last 10 league games, and as many as 6 games have been scored, and this game has poured 4 AC Milan at once.
I have to say that this is one of the charms of football - inadmissibility. However, there will be some clues to anything that can't be done. Listen to Brother Dog make it up for you: The so-called clues, one is fate, and the other is confrontation.
The fatalistic theory between Monza and AC Milan has a long history, and Serie A fans even called Monza a little red and black at one time, which can be seen.
Galliani, who is about to turn 80 in a few months, became a shareholder of Monza in 1980, and as his hometown team, Galliani has a different affection for Monza.
In 2022, after Monza was promoted to the Italian Serie A for the first time in its history, it once defeated Juventus twice and won and drew one against Inter Milan in one season, but only faced AC Milan, which was of the same blood, and won two games;
The first leg of this season's meeting between the two teams came exactly the day after AC Milan's 124th birthday, a comfortable 3-0 win at home for the Rossoneri. Fans say Galliani is celebrating Milan's birthday in his own way; After this game, Milan started a two-month unbeaten streak like a pill. This unbeaten journey started at Monza and ended again today.
Monza's defeat to Milan for the first time in history was the club's fate; Maldini, who was dressed in red and black blood, played for Monza for the second time, and the first time he was directly involved in the goal, he completed the assist against the Rossoneri, which is the fate of the red and black celebrity - before the game, he generously admitted that he dreams of one day returning to AC Milan and wearing the red and black shirt again! And Colombo, killing the main to lock the win is the fate of the Serie A youngsters.
The so-called confrontation, in the author's opinion, originates from the Serie A reform system promoted by the chairman of the Serie A Union in the previous stage - the downsizing of Serie A.
At the beginning of February, it was reported that the Rossoneri joined the camp of Lotito, Marotta, De Lao and others, officially announcing their support for the drawdown of Serie A. At this point, the confrontation between small and medium-sized clubs and these big clubs has officially begun.
Coincidentally, in the camp against the drawdown, Galliani is their banner figure, because he has the most experience, and the weight of his words even exceeds that of Lotito and others, who have a platform for opposition parties. Finally, after Maldini ran away from depression, the 80-year-old red and black Galliani had no choice but to go to the opposite side of Milan.
The fate of politicians may be that they can't help themselves.
Finally, two things:
First thing: Ansa broke the news: In January 2024, Cardinale, the helm of AC Milan, had a very formal remote meeting with Inter Milan President Zhang Kangyang in a low-key manner. During the meeting, Milan made a proposal to build a new stadium in San Donato together with Inter. However, Inter Milan then held an urgent meeting within the public and finally decided to abandon the proposal.
Therefore, this also explains the reason why [at the beginning of February, Rozano Mayor Giovanni Ferretti will unexpectedly come forward in person and express his hope that Inter will buy the new stadium land before the end of April].
The second thing: For a long time, many Premier League fans, especially Manchester United fans, believe that the former Inter Onana performed like two in Serie A and the Premier League, and Sommer frequently updated the record of clean sheets, and the two facts together show that Inter's overall defense and back line tactics can more effectively protect the goalkeeper, so it is not that Inter's goalkeeper is strong, but Inter's back line is really strong.
But today, a passage from Sommer in an interview gives a new perspective on the problem. "The two goalkeeper coaches at Inter have helped me a lot, they have made me more well-rounded, and I've experienced different training methods in my career," Sommer said. The Italians are very skillful and creative in their training.
That's right, the goalkeeper coach, as one of the indispensable functions of the team, has been completely ignored by us.
Last season's goalkeeper coach Bonayuti stepped down in the summer window, and the official explanation given by Inter Milan was: personal reasons. We won't talk too much about the people who left, but I will just say that Bonayuti is a standard Italian system coach with a lot of experience in Italian football.
This season, Gianluca Spinelli has become Inter's new goalkeeper coach. Old Serie A may know this person, Spinelli is a well-known Italian coach who has won the best goalkeeper coach award in Serie A three times; He and Conte have worked together for a long time, and the two have always been good partners in the Italian national team and Chelsea in the Premier League; After Antonio Conte left Chelsea in 18, Spinelli was invited to Paris Saint-Germain to embark on a five-year French adventure; On June 30, 2023, Spinelli left the club at the end of his contract with Grand Paris, and after only two meetings with Marotta, he negotiated all the details of his move to the Nerazzurri, which can be described as a lightning signing. At that time, Mi Ti posted that this was Marotta's best response to visa-free diners in Paris.
In addition, the author dug through a lot of information and finally found a little reason why Onana went down quickly when Inter was in goal, and Manchester United seemed to be a little slow to react. Courtois said in an exclusive interview again: In the Italian football system, the training of goalkeeper coaches is completely different. When I'm making a save, the goalkeeper coach in other leagues will ask me to take a step forward before making a sideways save, but the goalkeeper coach in the Italian football system will ask me to move laterally instead of taking a step forward. This change increased the speed of the save and I was able to go down faster.
Perhaps the speech of this interview can echo Sommer's speech. Because whether it is leaving the team or joining in the new season, Spinelli is a standard Italian goalkeeper coach. As the saying goes, even in the most declining period of Serie A, Italy has never lacked excellent goalkeepers, and this phenomenon must have its own underlying truth. And the technical superiority of goalkeeper coaches at certain levels may be the ultimate answer to this question.
