In order to prepare for the fifth round of the UEFA Champions League group game, which is a matter of life and death, Inter Milan has given up the domestic league. The league they played on the weekend was an away game led by assistant coach Fernando Orsi.
Therefore, Inter Milan lost to Livorno by one goal in the away game.
Although Inter Milan lost to Livorno in this game, their fans did not say anything. After all, the domestic league is long, but the Champions League is different.
Moreover, in terms of honor, the European champion is much more important than the Serie A champion!
So their fans did not blame the team for giving up the game, but began to look forward to the Champions League group match in San Siro in the middle of the week!
However, there is another very important thing before the fifth round of the UEFA Champions League group stage in the 05-06 season, that is, the results of this year's European Ballon d'Or selection have come out!
At seven o'clock in the evening on the 28th local time in France, Ronaldinho, accompanied by Barcelona President Laporta and Technical Director Begiristain, received the golden Golden Globe Award from the editor-in-chief of "French Football" Erno.
"In the past year, Ronaldinho helped Barcelona win their first La Liga trophy since 1999, and helped Brazil win the Confederations Cup in Germany this year...Two weeks ago, in the away game against Real Madrid 3-0 in the league, his skills and two goals even attracted applause from the Bernabéu fans..."
"... This honor was won by Ronaldinho. Although Barcelona had a bad start in the new season of La Liga this season, the team has already qualified from the Champions League group stage under his leadership. He has been outstanding this season and has made up his mind to lead Barcelona back to the top of Europe!"
From France Football Special Ballon d'Or
Ai Luo stared at Ronaldinho on the front page. Although he has made great progress this year, he still has not been valued by the mainstream European media. You must know that Valencia has defeated Barcelona and Real Madrid one after another this season, so Ai Luo feels that he is not much worse than Ronaldinho!
But...why was there no nomination?
At the same time, the newspaper began to become crumpled under the force of Ai Luo's right hand.
After a while, Ai Luo figured it out. If there is no nomination, there will be no nomination. Anyway, I knew it when the list was announced before. There is no this year, so... next year's European Golden Globe Awards!
I'm... pre-ordered! !
Ai Luo thought so.
So he snapped his fingers and entered the system.
The experience of the talent free kick column has also reached (9812/10000), which means that he can be upgraded by scoring 180 or eight more free kicks in the free kick simulation system.
As we get closer to the fifth round of the Champions League group stage, we must continue to strengthen ourselves before this game!

The day after the team resumed training after the home victory over Celta Vigo, Valencia took a plane to Milan to prepare for this crucial Champions League group match.
As soon as they got off the plane, all members of Valencia were caught by the reporters waiting at the airport.
At the same time, the Inter Milan fans at Milan Malpensa Airport also 'welcome' the arrival of Valencia with slogans and banners with ulterior motives. Of course... this 'welcome' is to greet the families of the players from Valencia.
Although not many reporters came this time, a dozen or so, they were enough to block the exit of the Valencia players, so...they had to accept interviews from the reporters.
The first to be interviewed was the team's head coach Flores.
"What is the goal of Valencia in this game?"
Flores looked at the middle-aged man in front of him with a beard and even a bit of a hideous face. He really wanted to laugh, but he remembered that he said in an interview that Valencia came to Milan this time for victory!
But etiquette is something that cannot be missed. After all, it is related to Valencia's face. "Goal? Haha... We are here for victory!" Immediately afterwards, he added another sentence, which was directed at the other reporters present, "If you want to ask questions about this, then... I will answer here in unison, our goal at the Meazza Stadium is victory!"
Show off!
This was the unified thought of the reporters present.
But the words after Flores cheered them up. This is big news. In their minds, Enrique Flores, Valencia's head coach for the new season, is a relatively mediocre head coach.
Subsequently, the reporters also talked about Valencia's goals in the Champions League this season.
In this regard, of course, Flores can't talk nonsense, but naturally the goal can't be too low, otherwise it will affect the morale of the team. After a little thought, he said slowly: "The goal in the Champions League...to enter the knockout round, and then keep eight out of four!"
Wow——
There was another uproar at the scene.
Is this goal too high?
Immediately afterwards, the reporters from Italy focused on Aiello, who was a potential 'client' for headline news. His grievances with Materazzi and Adriano are worth discussing and exploring!
"After the last round of Serie A, Marco Materazzi has made it clear in an interview with reporters that you will definitely be unable to move an inch in this game!"
This is a question from a reporter from Gazzetta dello Sport.
After Ai Luo finished listening, his brows were naturally frowned, "Are you sure what he said made it difficult for me to move?"
The "Gazzetta dello Sport" reporter nodded repeatedly, provoking the anger of both sides is a highlight before the game, and it may even affect the result of the game!
Ai Luo smiled instead of anger, "Haha...then I'll just wait, don't be like the last game at the Mestalla Stadium, where two yellows and one red will be bad!"
His words immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of another reporter from Gazzetta dello Sport who is pro-Inter Milan. After Aiello finished speaking, he couldn't wait to say sarcastically, "Don't forget, this is the San Siro stadium!"
"Could it be that the Meazza Stadium stipulates that opposing players are not allowed to move in the stadium?" Ai Luo looked at the young reporter with a crescent moon hanging from the corner of his mouth.
"you!"
The young reporter was so angry at Ai Luo's words that he had nothing to say, so he could only hold back.
Finally, when the reporter interviewed Ai Luo, he talked about his goals for the team in the Champions League this season.
In terms of goals, Ai Luo is very high in terms of past experience, of course...this time is also very high, publicity...is his personality!
"The goal of this season's Champions League?" Ai Luo dragged his chin with his left hand, looked at the reporters in front of him, and continued: "Goal? That is naturally the championship!"
Whoa!
Ai Luo's goal immediately caused an uproar!
Even the other Valencia players were stunned. This... the champion of the UEFA Champions League?
God!Is this goal too high?
Ai Luo's reply was immediately refuted by the speechless young reporter he said earlier, "Joke! You Valencia can win the championship? Do you think your family recommended the Champions League championship?"
"That's right, it's really out of words!"
"This kid must have slept and hasn't woken up yet, hahaha..."
In an instant, the young reporter's words resonated with several young reporters nearby.
Looking at the style, it should be a good friend or something.
Ai Luo didn't get angry because of this. Instead, he stared calmly at the work IDs of the young journalists who spoke just now. After reading them, he said slowly, "Gazzetta dello Sport, City Herald, Corriere della Sera... Please remember everything I said today! You will regret it!!"
"Will I regret it?" The young reporter grinned, "Stop joking!"
Ai Luo was planning to 'compete' with the reporters in front of him, but the team press officer Mercedes Uri who came with the team stopped him and whispered in his ear, "Ai, some words must be in moderation, otherwise it will not affect you well..." Then, without waiting for Ai Luo's reply, he said to the previous reporters, "We just arrived in Milan today, so if you want to continue the interview, you can only wait for the routine press conference before the game. Now we have stayed here for ten minutes Yes, the team members are already a little tired from waiting, how about next time?"
Although Mercedes Uri spoke very gently, his tone was unquestionable, so those reporters who were still planning to continue digging had no choice but to give up their original plans and step aside one after another.

After leaving the airport, a bus drove over at the gate and stopped.
Although it is not very far from Valencia to Milan, it took nearly three hours to fly. Many players felt sleepy, so they took a nap after getting on the bus.
After David Villa got in the car, he chose to sit next to Aiello as usual, which is also in line with the tacit understanding between the two in the team.
After a while, the bus moved, and David Villa couldn't help turning his face to the side, looked at Ai Luo, and asked, "Ai, is what you just said true?"
Ai Luo was playing with his mobile phone, and when he heard David Villa's words, he turned his head subconsciously, "What is the truth?"
"It's the goal you mentioned earlier..." David Villa spoke in a very low voice in order not to attract the attention of other teammates, "... Champions League champions!"
"It's not the first day you know me, when did I tell a lie?"
"...Then, do you mean that your goal is really the UEFA Champions League?" David Villa felt that his brain could not keep up.
"Of course!! Otherwise, what do you think? Professional players should always have lofty goals, otherwise they will lack motivation. If you want to become a great player from a professional player, you should achieve this lofty goal, otherwise... I'm sorry for the fans who support me, do you think David?"
Ai Luo shrugged and explained.
David Villa didn't answer immediately, but... fell into his own contemplation. Obviously Ailuo's words had a great impact on him. The dream he once had seemed to appear in front of his eyes again. Should he pursue it bravely, or give up cowardly?
The answer... is of course a brave pursuit!
After clearing his mind, David Villa suddenly stretched out his right hand and said, "Ai, let's work hard to achieve great goals!"
Ai Luo was stunned for a moment, then extended his right hand and shook it, "Okay, let's work hard for our great common goal!"
PS: Thank you Brother Gui for your reward, and continue to ask for recommendations!
