Chapter 92: Chapter 92: Inter Infighting Becomes the Focus, Could Florence Be the Biggest Winner?
[Shocking! Two star forwards of Inter Milan clash fiercely!]
[Chaos in the locker room! Icardi and Podolski are like sworn enemies!]
[A penalty kick in the Milan Derby leading to a bloody conflict!]
[Defiant? More like foolish! Icardi angrily confronts Mancini!]
[Scenes from Manchester City unfold again, but the lead role changed from Balotelli to Icardi!]
[Two favored players turn against him, just how disordered is Mancini’s locker room?]
Despite it being a closed-door training session.
Despite all the photographers on the field being staff from Inter’s official TV channel, InterTV.
But in this big club, Inter, factions arise, and interpersonal relationships are as complex as in any workplace.
Those pervasive Italian local media still managed to buy this explosive news from the mouth of a certain Inter player.
More exhilarating for the onlookers is that the corresponding video snippets were even leaked out~
Goodness!
They really went at it!
Thrilling, exciting, far more entertaining than the match.
Even the news about who ultimately won between Icardi and Podolski is fervently discussed!
Some say Podolski is German, and German players are ironclad warriors, definitely not afraid of fights, while Argentinians stand no chance.
Some say Icardi grew up on the streets of South America, raised in the Argentine Primera Division, where every game is a lumberjack contest, and Podolski, this European academic, can’t win.
Of course, the hottest discussion remains centered on the conflict between Icardi and Mancini!
It’s understandable, in the eyes of the onlookers, conflicts between colleagues are entertaining, but a clash between an employee and a boss is far more thrilling to watch~
After a midweek Premier League match ended.
At the press conference, a reporter asked about the matter in front of Liverpool player Balotelli.
Balotelli scored a goal against Crystal Palace that night, feeling a bit inflated, casually joking around with reporters.
"Perhaps it was during my time at Manchester City that I deliberately went easy on him, giving him overconfidence, so he likes to fight with players. If it were today, I wouldn’t let him off, I’d give him a back slam, and he’d end up in the hospital with a fracture, hahaha~"
"What if it were Liverpool’s manager, Rodgers? Would you fight him too?" the reporter egged him on.
"Mr. Rodgers is too small, he’s only 5 feet 6 inches, and I’m 6 feet 3 inches. I guess he wouldn’t dare to fight me!"
Balotelli laughed heartily, thinking he was being humorous as he patted the table.
Completely unaware that sitting beside him, Liverpool’s manager Rodgers was turning pale!
Indeed, Balotelli’s mind is incomprehensible, world-class below the neck, neighborhood-class above the neck, is the most straightforward interpretation of him.
Icardi’s mind is slightly better.
Facing the media, he chose to remain silent.
But he couldn’t withstand his flamboyant and foolish wife stirring things up at home!
Wanda lashed out at Inter’s management on social media, accusing them of not protecting her husband, allowing the team’s top striker to be wronged, and claiming that Podolski, this German Nazi element, isn’t here to play soccer, but to specifically bully people in fights!
Wanda’s social media has a staggering number of fans, well surpassing Icardi’s.
This led Ronaldo, upon seeing it, to call Chiwo and thank him for not recruiting Icardi under his wing back then, fearing his capable wife might stir unimaginable trouble.
Under immense pressure, Mancini was also infuriated!
In my team, it’s not like I have no forwards to use!
In the previous Milan Derby, regarding Icardi breaking the rules by snatching Podolski’s self-created penalty, Mancini was not too pleased.
Now he fought with teammates on the training ground.
Fighting teammates is one thing, but daring to tear my clothes, and the image got leaked!
Your marvelous wife at home is stirring things up on social media, transforming a situation manageable internally into a big news in Italian football.
Even allowing Balotelli, this traitor, to ridicule him.
Mancini’s Mancini, as a dignified 50-year-old famed Italian coach, where does this old face go?
Swipe!
In front of assistant coach Herrera, Mancini erased Icardi from the lineup against Florence!
Herrera, handing over the lineup to the head coach’s office, was somewhat uneasy.
"Boss, Florence is a strong team! They’re our fierce competitors for next season’s Champions League qualification. I don’t mind Icardi not starting, but excluding him from the substitutes, isn’t that too risky?" Herrera cautiously asked.
"You underestimate Podolski? Fine, how about you sit on the substitute bench then, Herrera? I remember you played forward in Venice during your player days, no player to use, you can go in!"
Well! Herrera quickly zipped his mouth, showed an OK sign, and sent the lineup without Icardi off to the Serie A Alliance by fax.
On Sunday night, Inter Milan played Florence away.
Purple Lily ranked 5th, Inter 6th.
In the last league match, Florence tied with Turin.
On the Serie A points table, the gap between Inter Milan and Purple Lily is only 1 point!
Just crush this lily at Franchi Stadium, and Inter can overtake them, moving up a place.
Mancini was brimming with confidence.
Having just decisively defeated the town rival 2-0, the team morale is high.
Even though an internal conflict incident sparked media discussions, causing him a headache.
However, he decisively excluded Icardi from the lineup, not even taking him to Florence, thereby actively stabilizing the locker room and to a certain extent, preserving his dignity.
After the match started, like many Serie A top teams, Florence employed their opening three attacks at home!
Each attack lasting five minutes, slashing thrice.
Mancini, witnessing this, remained unsurprised.
You slash me with an axe, I block with a shield.
Bam!
Florence’s first axe stroke was a wing breakthrough and cross.
Serbian full-back Tomovick, embodying former South players’ tradition of ample stamina and willingness to fiercely contest.
A strong physical breakthrough on the wing brought a cross inside.
Thankfully, centre back Ranocchia cleared the ball thrice, averting danger!
Clang!
Florence’s second axe stroke was a central conduction and penetration.
Badley and Aquilani, both first-rate Serie A midfielders, adept at locating openings in the opponent’s defense during a running match.
Especially Badley, hailing from Croatia known as Europe’s Brazil team—indeed, yet another former South player, whose diligent discipline and cost-effectiveness make them many Serie A teams’ first choice.
Badley continuously played wall pass combinations with Aquilani and Kurtini in the center, advancing to the corridor near the penalty area, delivering a cross to Diament!
If not for Handa’s outstanding save, Inter’s goal would have been breached already!
Seeing they endured the first ten minutes.
Florence’s manager gave a big wave, initiating the third axe stroke!
Retreating to the defensive midfield position, Tang Long noticed a detail.
Diament, Ilicic, and Badley, had quietly swapped positions...
