The Day I Played with Ronaldo

"We are in a serious situation. In the Champions League, we will not give up," Mancini said in the dressing room ahead of the home game against Sampdoria. "In the league, we cannot give up. But now we are behind Juve. One point for Tus. This point may be easily recovered, and perhaps it will always be between us and Juventus."

"What we have to do is to win every game until the end of the season. Just start from this game! Juventus will face AC Milan this round, and this may be a good opportunity for us to overtake the points , but when an opportunity arises, it depends on whether you can grasp it."

His majestic voice stopped, and he slowly scanned the audience.

"Are you confident to seize this opportunity?"

"have!"

"Okay, then win Sampdoria for me!"

Inter Milan's players stormed out of the locker room, stepped onto the lawn of the Meazza Stadium, and defeated Sampdoria 2-0 cleanly, scoring 70 points.

In another game the next day, in order to keep some of the main force in the Champions League, Juventus was tied 0:0 by AC Milan at home with 69 points.

The Inter Milanese once again took the initiative in their own hands.

On the evening of March 14th, Inter Milan defeated Ajax 1-0 at home and advanced to the quarterfinals with a total score of 3:2.

Juventus defeated Werder Bremen 2:1 at home, with a total score of 4:4, and advanced with more away goals.

AC Milan defeated Bayern Munich 4:1 at home and easily advanced with a total score of 5:2.

Real Madrid drew 0:0 with Arsenal away and advanced smoothly.

Last season's runner-up, Liverpool, lost to Benfica with a total score of 0:3 and was eliminated...

After this round, the UEFA Champions League quarter-final and semi-final draws were held at the Paris City Hall.

The draw for the quarter-finals is random, and teams from the same league may meet in advance. This year there may be a Serie A derby or a La Liga derby, the most concerned of which is the possibility of the Milan derby, which may also be the last derby people want to see, because in the past three seasons, the Milan derby has appeared twice .

The draw ceremony was presided over by UEFA CEO Olsson, and the former French central defender Blanc, who won the 1998 World Cup at the Stade de France, was the guest of honor. The newly designed trophy to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Champions Cup was also displayed at the lottery scene, with the names of the former 50 champions engraved on the trophy. Former Real Madrid star Gento and the last champion captain Zanetti came out with the trophy.

Gento is one of the Real Madrid players who won the first Champions Cup and the only player to win 6 Champions Cups. Gento and Gerrard handed the trophy to Alesson, who in turn handed it to Paris Mayor Delanoe, and the trophy will be on public display until the final day.

In the ensuing draw ceremony, Barcelona, ​​who had the second odds of winning the championship, drew Benfica. Everyone guessed that they could easily advance to the semi-finals. Juventus was more unlucky, drawing the biggest favorite Real Madrid.

AC Milan was lucky, drawing Lyon, and Inter Milan was okay, drawing the yellow submarine Villarreal.

Villarreal was grouped with Benfica, Lille and the out-of-form Manchester United. They qualified as the top of the group and drew 3:3 with Glasgow Rangers in the quarter-finals.

Eliminated the latter by virtue of away goals.

In terms of total paper strength, Villarreal is weaker than Inter Milan by more than a chip.

Of course, it's another matter to actually kick it.

As soon as the result of the draw came out, Mancini warned his players not to take the yellow submarine lightly. This team with Riquelme is by no means a kind person.

And even if they beat Villarreal, their opponents in the semi-finals will be the winners of Juventus and Real Madrid. This level will not be easy to pass.

On March 19, Inter Milan defeated Lazio 4:1 at home; on March 22, they beat Udinese 1:0 in the first round of the Coppa Italia semi-final.

Seeing that everything was going in a good direction, as a result, on the evening of March 25th, they lost 0:1 to Parma in a fucking away game.

At the final whistle, every player's eyes showed confusion and disbelief. They couldn't believe that at this critical moment, they lost the chain again. Parma has lost a lot of blood in recent years, and it is no longer the Parma of the Seven Sisters of Serie A.

Although Inter Milan is staying strong for the mid-week Champions League match, Ricardo and Adriano did not play, but from the comparison of the strengths of the two sides, Inter Milan is enough to crush the opponent.

But Worm's stoppage error in the penalty area allowed Simplicio to score the only goal of the game. The efforts of Martins, Cruz and others were magically resolved by Parma's goalkeeper Butzi.

But fortunately, Juventus, who also stayed for the Champions League, was also tied 1:1 by Rome at home. If it weren't for the referee's several key judgments in favor of Juventus, Juventus would even suffer a defeat.

Now, Inter Milan and Juventus have the same 73 points. Since the two sides have played in a draw, the ranking is calculated according to the goal difference. Inter Milan is 2 goals less than their opponents, temporarily ranking second.

On the evening of March 29, Inter Milan played against Villarreal at home.

In just 40 seconds of the opening, Riquelme gave Jose Mari an excellent opportunity with an exquisite pick pass. Although Jose Mari's shot was saved by Toldo, Diego Forlan's supplementary shot succeeded.

In the 6th minute, Inter Milan equalized the score. Stankovic's cross accurately found Adriano's feet, and Adriano turned and shot past Vieira's ten fingers.

In the second half, Inter Milan continued to aggressively attack. In the 54th minute, Stankovic picked the ball and passed Sorin, and then volleyed the ball to the goal. Achieved overtake.

After that, although Inter Milan still tried hard to expand the score, the shots of Ricardo and Adriano were always a little bit short, or they were bravely resolved by Vieira, and Riquelme also sent strike threats several times To Inter Milan's goal, even hit the crossbar with a free kick, so that Inter Milan did not dare to let go of the attack.

Inter Milan defeated Villarreal 2:1 at home and won the first move. The fly in the ointment is that it gave the opponent an away goal.

And Juventus lost 0:3 away to Real Madrid, Ronaldo scored twice; AC Milan and Barcelona were both drawn away by their opponents.

"It seems that our opponent in the semi-finals is you," Ricardo said when he called Ronaldo, "Dadado, let's have a showdown!"

"First of all, you have passed the level of Villarreal. I warn you that they are not weak. If you dare to underestimate the enemy, you will definitely suffer."

"Haha, how is it possible! We will win!"
