Restricted Superstar

Gao Xiaodong was sent off in the Champions League final last season. According to regulations, Gao Xiaodong will be suspended for one game and he will not be able to play against Barcelona. However, on the day of the match against Barcelona, ​​Inter Milan suddenly appealed to the UEFA referee committee. It means that Gao Xiaodong's red card in the Champions League final last season was a misjudgment. Gao Xiaodong was an unintentional handball when he made a header clearance. It is hoped that the referee committee will cancel Gao Xiaodong's red card and suspension.

UEFA believes that the red card appeal has exceeded the time limit, and Inter Milan is not allowed to appeal, but Inter Milan is confident. They said that after Gao Xiaodong received the red card, Porto had appealed to the referee committee and handed over the materials to UEFA. Chris, the staff member of the referee committee, but UEFA did not make a trial, because Gao Xiaodong then asked for a transfer, Porto did not ask about this matter.

The UEFA referee committee immediately investigated Chris, and they found out that this happened, but when Porto submitted the materials to Chris, Chris was suddenly hospitalized in a car accident the next day, and Porto never asked again. This matter, as a result, this matter disappeared.

Obviously, this is a mistake made by the UEFA referee committee. They can only accept Inter Milan's appeal and prepare for a hearing to study the red card penalty of Gao Xiaodong in the final of last season.

Obviously, Gao Xiaodong’s handball at the time was impossible to cancel the red card, whether intentionally or not, because he affected a Barcelona goal, but Inter Milan had no intention of canceling the red card. They just used loopholes in the rules to let Gao Xiaodong be the referee. During the committee's trial, they can participate in the match against Barcelona. As for Gao Xiaodong's suspension, Inter Milan will face Rubin Kazan and Dynamo Kyiv. Even without Gao Xiaodong, Inter Milan can win.

Although Barcelona is dissatisfied with this, there is no way, because Inter Milan did not violate the rules, they just took advantage of the loopholes in the rules.

Gao Xiaodong’s participation was a complete accident for Barcelona, ​​but it was premeditated at Inter Milan. As early as they learned that they played Barcelona in the first round of the UEFA Champions League group stage, Inter Milan began to look for a way to make Gao Xiaodong able to compete, and finally passed Porto, Inter Milan finally decided on this beautiful trick.

However, Inter Milan vs. Barcelona, ​​whether Gao Xiaodong can participate or not, is the focus of the first round of the group stage. Two days before the game, the tickets were sold out. Two hours before the start of the game, the stands of the Meazza Stadium The top was full of blue and black fans, and the north stand was covered with banners and huge portraits. From a distance, it looked like the opening ceremony of a Chinese company.

At this time, the Inter Milan players came out of the locker room for training. Gao Xiaodong was among them. The Neira group, who was a little boring in the stands, immediately used a round of warm applause and cheers to express their opposition to Gao Xiaodong's play. The excitement of the game.

The extreme fan leaders in the north stand were all surprised to see Gao Xiaodong appearing on the court. Simon said, "So this is the surprise Xiaodong gave us."

Kalavita said: "From yesterday's conversation, Xiaodong should know that he can play."

Barcelona Rota said: "Eto'o vs. Ibrahimovic, Gao Xiaodong against Messi, Guardiola against Mourinho, this matchup is perfect, how can UEFA suspended Gao Xiaodong."

Simon said: "Not to mention, UEFA estimated that it would turn one eye and close another, deliberately giving Xiaodong a chance to play."

Caravita said: "You cannot underestimate the shamelessness of UEFA."

"Sky Sports" commentator Mazzola saw Gao Xiaodong appearing on the court to train, he sighed: "This must be Mourinho's conspiracy, but even if Gao Xiaodong can play, Inter Milan wants to beat Barcelona very much. Difficult. If Inter Milan has a defensive counter-attack lineup, it may be possible to get a draw."

He Hui, the narrator of CCTV, said in surprise: "It is really unexpected that Gao Xiaodong was able to play. Gao Xiaodong's play will make this highlight event even more exciting. If Ibrahimovic and Eto'o's duel are more dramatic. If this is the case, then the matchup between Messi in 1987 and Gao Xiaodong in 1989 is even more gorgeous. Messi is the hottest favorite of the World Footballer and the Golden Globe Awards this year, and Gao Xiaodong is the hottest favorite of the European Golden Boy Awards. Messi is now He is already a superstar, and Gao Xiaodong is also a potential newcomer. In the future, the superstars, the two of them and Luo in 1985, will most likely dominate the power pattern of the future football.

Now that I have got the lineup of both sides, this lineup should not have changed much. Let’s take a look at Barcelona’s 11 players, 1-Valdes/2-Alves, 5-Puyol, 3-Pique, 22-Abidal/6-Harvey, 24-Toure, 15-Keta/10-Messi, 9-Ibrahimovic, 14-Henry, this is a typical 433 formation, but in Iniesta had just recovered from his injury, so he was not in it. However, for this one, the midfielder's control and creativity are slightly worse, but the defensive hardness and running interception ability have definitely improved a lot.

Let’s take a look at Inter Milan’s lineup, 12-Cesar/13-Maicon, 6-Lucio, 25-Samuel, 26-Zivu/5-Stankovic, 4-Sane Ti, 8-Tiago-Motta/10-Gao Xiaodong/22-Milito, 9-Eto'o. This is a lineup without surprises. It is still the people who think of it, or the 4312 formation, but facing Barcelona, ​​this formation seems to be more symptomatic. Barcelona's strongest midfield control is their midfield control, and Inter Milan is the strongest point. It is their destructive ability in the midfield. It seems that the focus of the game is whether Barcelona can control the ball. "

The Inter Milan players came out for training for almost 20 minutes, sweating slightly, and then went back to the locker room to wait for the start of the game.

In the locker room of Inter Milan, Boas and Mourinho were talking. Seeing the players walk in, Mourinho stood up and said: "The game is about to start. This is our first season in the new season. In the Champions League game, I hope everyone will show our spirits. No matter what the victory or defeat, we must not be afraid. We have also watched the lineup of Barcelona. Harvey, Keita, Toure, these three people, Keita and Tu. Ray's ability to handle the ball is average. As long as we can look at Xavi and hold down the two sides of Barcelona, ​​Barcelona's trident in the frontcourt is useless. Of course, Lucio and Samuel also have heavy tasks. , You two must stare at Ibrahimovic, and the player in front of the opponent, Zanetti, you have to watch Messi on the right, everyone else, once you see Messi dribbling, everyone should Give priority to defending Messi..."

After briefly reviewing the tactical arrangements, Mourinho said again: "The time to test our strength is coming. Our opponent is the defending champion. We will play against Barcelona. We only know the position of our strength in European football. Don’t think We are the champions of Serie A, the top five or even the top three teams in Europe. Don’t forget, we haven’t made the Champions League semi-finals for many years, but I believe everyone, we will definitely show a new face to Inter Milan fans. , We want them to know that Inter Milan is not the soft-footed crab of the Champions League, we are here to win the Champions League trophy..."

At this time, there was the whistle of the referees from the mixed channel. Mourinho stopped talking and gently said to the players: "Go out, don’t care too much about the outcome, show your skills, fighting spirit, and confidence to the players. The fans will do."r
