The Prince of Inter Milan starts with Brother Xiaosa

Chapter 179 Successfully defended the title!

“I think you all know that as long as we win this game, we will win the league championship this season in advance!
  This also means that we can focus on the Champions League without being disturbed by these domestic competitions.

The nights are long and there are many dreams. The longer the time goes by, the more variables there will be. I don’t want any accidents to happen. "

Three days after the home victory over Vono, the entire Inter Milan team took the club bus to the capital of Italy, the ancient city of Rome.

Leo will join his teammates at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome to decide whether they can lock the Serie A championship in advance.

And due to AC Milan's recent loss of performance and poor record, Giallorossi Roma has unknowingly gone on to catch up with them without losing for 18 consecutive rounds.

The gap from the top of the list may be too big and there is no chance, but there is still hope for Roma to compete for second place.

Although there was another Champions League game just three days later on Wednesday, Mourinho still sent out all the main players to play.

Pandev, Milito, Lucio, Samuel and other players who were rested during the week all returned to the starting lineup.

De Rossi stole the ball from Zanetti's feet and then Mene broke through to the right rib and sent a through ball.

Vucinic rubbed the ball from the right side of the penalty area and hit the back post like a pass or a shot. Unfortunately, no teammate came to respond and slid out.

In the fifth minute, Leo's direct pass was intercepted by former Inter Milan player Burdisso!

"Hey, wait for me here."

Burdisso was abandoned by Mourinho and was thrown to Roma. It is certainly unrealistic to say that he has no dissatisfaction in his heart.
