"I think our players are in good health and they don't have a psychological burden on this game. Our mistake is that we give our opponents too many shots, which we never did last season."

Capello at the press conference was very frustrated: "In football, heaven and hell are so close."

"But this loss is not something that can be explained by a player. It is certainly not a favorable period for us. Although we played at the highest level for most of the time, we suffered the first defeat. Our performance in the first half was good enough, but it was no longer so clear after the lead."

Although Totti, Tomasi and others performed extremely poorly, Capello still did not criticize them in front of the media.

"Our primary goal is still the league championship, but the League Cup has taken too much to us and we have to go back to the scheduled track. We are not fighting back because we are not twisting together."

"We will go back to the road to victory, and I am confident in my players."

"The road is still long, we have to go step by step, play one game after another, and it's too early to dream of becoming a league champion now. But we can't continue to bear the losses caused by missing these opportunities. We may win today, but we may lose another game on the other day."

As the defeated commander, Capello did not want to stay at the press conference at all, but Japanese reporters still wanted to ask him about Hideho Nakada.

"If Nakata Hidehoku had started, maybe Roma's result wouldn't be like this? Totti's condition is obviously bad."

Capello's face suddenly became ugly, and he glared at the reporter who asked the question.

"Will the score of 2:6 become 6:2?"

"UEFA should issue you a coaching certificate."

Nakata?

Capello clearly remembers that when Eiju Nakada hit the ball for the first time, Zheng Zhi intercepted the ball, and then the score became 1:4. What are you talking to me about now? Funny!

Capello left the seat in anger...

The stage was left to Mourinho.

Mourinho sat down with a relaxed look on his face, and Recoba was sitting next to him.

The reason why he brought Recoba to the press conference was because he and Recoba wanted to clarify the rumors of transferring to AC Milan. A few days made Recoba calm down and finally reached a contract extension with Inter Milan.

Mourinho took the initiative to speak:

"I know what you want to ask, let me tell you directly."

"We won another big win, and the opponent was Roma. Roma actually performed very well and didn't need to be as harsh as Capello and Roma, but Inter Milan performed better, so we won. Listen to the point clearly? The point is not that Roma played poorly, but that we played better."

"We are continuing to beat our opponents, we are on the right path."

"Actually there is nothing to say. This is the case with the middle of next week, next weekend, next mid-week, next weekend. You don't need to make a fuss. Every player performs great and gives everything. I'm very satisfied with everything. This is the team of Inter Milan, including the players, coaching staff, other club staff, up and down."

"It's like Recoba next to me." Mourinho gently patted Recoba's shoulder, "He sat here today and wanted to tell everyone that he is very good now. He has renewed his contract with Inter Milan. Why don't you ask him how he feels?"

After Mourinho said this, the reporters suddenly realized and handed the microphone to Recoba.

Recoba smiled shyly and nodded, "Yes, I have reached a new agreement with the club. I love this club deeply, so I will continue to play here, maybe until I retire."

"I must thank Mr. Chairman, thank the head coach, and thank Zheng Zhi. The three of them have communicated with me a lot, and I have benefited a lot. I am honored to be able to play for a club with ambition to champion."

Is Zheng Zhi's credit? When Yan Qiang heard Recoba thanking Zheng Zhi, his eyes lit up and he quickly asked: "What did Zheng Zhi say to you?"

"He patted his chest and told me that he would have nothing to do when he left, stayed and competed for the championship together. A career without a championship is a failure, and Inter Milan can bring everything to me. I believe in the captain, Inter Milan, and the boss."

After renewing the contract, Recoba was in a good mood and spoke a lot better. Before, he had a calm face in front of the media and never smiled, as if everyone owed him money...

"Jose, next Thursday's Best European Awards will be here. Do you think you will win the Best European Player?"

Mourinho raised his lips and smiled, "I voted for Zheng Zhi,"

"I believe it's Zheng Zhi,"

"The best player will naturally appear among the champion teams. Leverkusen was the European champion last season, Zheng Zhi was the core, and naturally he was the best player, there is no doubt about this."

"I'm ready to receive the award on his behalf."

Mourinho is very confident. Before the selection has been released, he thinks that Zheng Zhi won the award. If the best player can only be produced from Leverkusen, then only Zheng Zhi is the most qualified.

The best player in Europe will be selected by the head coaches of all 42 clubs participating in the competition. Whoever gets the highest score will be elected. In addition to the best player, the best goalkeeper, best defender, best midfielder and best forward are also selected. So the award ceremony in Monte Carlo next Thursday is a grand event for European football.

For Zheng Zhi, his biggest competitors are Redondo, who just joined AC Milan and Raul, who won the Champions League top scorer. Redondo's performance in the midfield is no less than Zheng Zhi, but he lost the final, which is the fatalest. Similarly, Raul scored 12 Champions League goals, setting a Champions League goal record. Like Redondo, he lost to Leverkusen, who represented Real Madrid to represent Leverkusen, Zheng Zhi. This goal record may not be allowed to be elected.

Among the odds offered by Spinach Company, Zheng Zhi is also the most popular winner, with Raul ranking second and Redondo ranking third.

Although it is a very important award, Zheng Zhi has no time to attend the award ceremony, because on that day, Zheng Zhi wanted to represent the Chinese team in the first Asian Cup. The club can only arrange the awards to receive the awards. At present, Morati and Mourinho may be attending the awards at the same time and accepting the awards on behalf of Zheng Zhi...

The next morning, Zheng Zhi flew away from Italy and went to the national team to report, while Italy was still immersed in the football atmosphere.

After the fourth round of the Italian League One, the fate of several championship teams was very different.

Erikson started his last eight-month term with Lazio with victory. Erikson won his first game after being confirmed as England's future coach. Lazio came from behind at home and defeated Brescia 2-1.

Juventus lost to Udinese and suffered a streak at home, losing 1:2 to Udinese. They lost 1:3 to Champions League rival Hamburg in the Alp midweek. Juventus had the advantage on the field for most of the game, but Udinese's two defensive counterattacks left Juventus swallowing the bitter fruit.

Parma defeated AC Milan 2-0 at home. Cameroon striker Mboma's goal in the 4th minute disrupted AC Milan's pre-match deployment. AC Milan had to bite the bullet and attack, but Parma's counterattack was very fast. In the 66th minute, Mboma received a wonderful pass from Portuguese forward Consicao and scored twice with a beautiful header.

After Barty and Rui Costa left, Fiorentina was tied 2:2 by Barry at home.

Inter Milan won all four games and ranked first in the standings. Atlanta, a newly promoted team with excellent performance, ranked only with a small number of goals. Roma and AC Milan ranked third and fourth respectively.

.

Inter Milan topped the top spot in the standings with this victory.

Sports media across Italy put Inter vs Roma in the front page headlines.

"Milan Sports" - Maybe this season will be blue and black. When Inter Milan defeated Roma 6:2, AC Milan lost 0:2 to Parma, and Juventus lost 1:2 to Udinese, we finally see that Inter Milan is the strongest team in Serie A this year, and they have completely proved themselves.

——Redondo and Rui Costa failed to bring a victory to AC Milan, but the Chinese brought Inter Milan a big victory. As the season continued to deepen, we found that Mr. Moratti really made the right deal. In Inter Milan's storm-like offense, Chinese Zheng Zhi was the most important role.

"Milan Sports Daily" affirmed Zheng Zhi's role and gave Zheng Zhi 10 points and 10 points in the score. That means perfection. There were three rounds of competitions in front, and Zheng Zhi only got 9 points at the highest score. This time he got 10 points. It is conceivable that "Milan Sports Daily" is becoming more and more acknowledged him.

"Roman Sports" - Roma's defeat! The god of war Batistuta contributed everything, but was won by Zheng Zhi from the East. Capello's team lost in the midfield, lacking a player with a balanced offense and defense like Zheng Zhi. If Emerson had played early, the score might not be like this, but he chose to rotate Emerson, and Emerson was the only player who could stare at Zheng Zhi. Conversely, it was precisely because Zheng Zhi was on the court, Vieri, Recoba, Ronaldo and Adriano played freely, and they all scored goals separately. Of course, the most terrifying thing is that Zheng Zhi actually scored twice! What else can resist their progress?

"Turin Sports" - Juventus was defeated, and the championship may be blue and black. We can't see any hope this season. Inter Milan bought Zheng Zhi and Juventus let Zidane go, which is destined to end. There is no harm if there is no comparison. Now, the Juventus people should see clearly the harm caused by Zidane's departure!

Even Germany's "Kicker" reported this game - the Chinese dominate Serie A. After completing the German Grand Slam, Chinese Zheng Zhi continued to kill all sides in Serie A. No one could stop him. Perhaps next Thursday, the award for the best player in Europe will be in his arms.

Spain's "As" also praised Zheng Zhi and implicitly mocked Zidane - Look, how did Real Madrid choose? Real Madrid drew 2:2 with La Coruna, while Inter Milan defeated Roma 6:2, Milan lost to Parma 0:2, Zheng Zhi was greater than Zidane, and Zidane was greater than Redondo? Why didn't he choose the Chinese?

Madrid media are always used to asking this question. In fact, Real Madrid is not weak. Among the two world-class midfielders, Figo and Zidane, are two world-class midfielders, Real Madrid will eventually get out of the trough...

Even in the UK, media reporters were discussing Zheng Zhi. They asked Ferguson at the post-match press conference of Manchester United: Alex, do you really regret not buying Zheng Zhi? Ferguson's answer was quite helpless - it's not that I didn't buy it, it's that he didn't come! Of course, even if he didn't come, we brought Ribery. There was a little bit of his shadow on Ribery. Look, didn't Frank help us win the game? Although Ferguson had great regrets, he also gained Ribery at least, and Ribery once learned football with Zheng Zhi...

Tripoli, Lebanon.

Zheng Zhi finally got together with the national team. After just resting for a long time, he participated in the team's training. This time he participated in the Asian Cup, his goal was naturally to win the championship, and his biggest competitor must be the Japanese team. Looking at the entire Asia, except for the Japanese team, no other opponent should be Chinese opponents.

The 12th Asian Cup final stage competition was held in Lebanon. A total of 42 teams participated in this competition, setting a record for the most participating teams. Among them, 12 teams entered the Lebanese final round, including Iraq, Thailand, Lebanon, Iran, South Korea, China, Kuwait, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, Japan, Qatar and Uzbekistan.

The Chinese team is in Group B with South Korea, Kuwait and Indonesia, and the first game is against their old enemy South Korea. In the past two years, both China has won the victory, and South Korea lost in a decent way.

After China exported a large number of football talents to Europe in the past two years, the team's strength has improved by leaps and bounds, which has caused the Korean media to wail, but they have no way to close the gap, at least not in a short period of time.

On the Chinese team's roster, Hao Haixi, Fan Zhiyi, Yang Chen, Sun Jihai, Shao Jiayi, Zheng Zhi, Xie Hui, etc. have made a name for themselves in Europe. Fan Zhiyi is Liverpool's main central defender, Yang Chen is Frankfurt's main striker, Sun Jihai plays rotation at Arsenal, Shao Jiayi becomes the main force at Munich 1860, let alone Zheng Zhi.

Also, Ma Mingyu is also in Perugia. Although he has not played in the game, his strength is also evident...
