The Prince of Inter Milan starts with Brother Xiaosa

Chapter 190 The League Ends
  There was nothing new in the awards ceremony, it was the same as last year.

As captain, Zanetti once again lifted the Italian Cup championship trophy on behalf of the team amidst the bright fireworks and falling ribbons!

Then, surrounded by the players, head coach Mourinho also kissed the trophy, and then the Nerazzurri players threw the Portuguese up together!

"we are the champion!"

Before the award ceremony began, championship coach Mourinho was also interviewed on the sidelines.

“From the first minute I knew it was going to be a very tough game.

Especially when we lose a player like Cambiaso at the beginning of the game, it is obviously a very unfavorable situation.

It was an ugly, high-intensity ninety minutes of action.

We scored a goal in the first half and were in control of the game from then on.

Julio Cesar was outstanding in several dangerous moments.

Then the Roma side got a little out of hand, but my players performed well.

I want to tell the fans not to come to Malpensa Airport to greet us this time because the team really needs a rest.

After returning to Milan I will give the boys a day off to let them adjust.

Inter Milan were the winners today, we played well.

Now we have to fight to the end, and we will continue to fight for the dream of the Champions League!
  Of course, Bayern is a strong opponent, but we are not afraid of them.

Inter Milan is completely different from before. The team has made a huge leap and the level of the entire team has been improved.

Is it possible for me to stay?

Of course, clubs from other leagues have indeed contacted me and want to ask me to coach, but I have not made a final decision yet. "

For two consecutive seasons, Mourinho led Inter Milan to win a double crown in Italian domestic competitions.

This is certainly a pretty impressive achievement.

But now, all of them have put all that behind them and are waiting for the Champions League final in two weeks.

After the Coppa Italia final, Mourinho gave the first team members a day off.

As the backbone of Inter Milan, Mourinho's rumors of leaving at this time are actually quite detrimental to morale.

But his outstanding performance in leading the team to multiple victories over Barcelona this season has successfully attracted the attention of Real Madrid.

The Galacticos are in urgent need of a new helmsman, and the first condition is naturally to be able to lead Real Madrid against their mortal enemies in La Liga.

Mourinho is undoubtedly the most suitable choice.

No head coach can refuse Real Madrid's invitation, and Madman is confident enough to conquer the fans of this La Liga giant!

Of course, it's still a little early to say this. Real Madrid's Florentino may have to wait until the Champions League final is over before he can really make up his mind.

Whether Mourinho can win the Triple Crown will also be a key factor in whether Mourinho can take over the Bernabeu.

Leo came to the head coach's office with a puzzled face.

"Boss, are you looking for me?"

"Leo, if... I mean if, next season I leave Inter Milan to coach Real Madrid, will you be willing to come with me?
  The transfer fee is not a problem, you deserve a transfer fee that shocks the world.

If you are willing, I will convince Real Madrid's top management. As long as they are not stupid, they will definitely not refuse you, the best midfielder in the world. "

"Ah? Boss, are you really leaving?"

Leo was surprised and felt a little sad.

It's hard to say the level of technical and tactical skills, but Mourinho is definitely the most serious and dedicated head coach he has ever worked with.

Leo and Mourinho share a common desire to win.

After two years of working together, Leo couldn't say that he was dependent on him, but at least he trusted him very much.

If the Portuguese leaves, no matter who the next coach of Inter Milan will be, Leo feels that it will be difficult to achieve the tacit understanding between him and Mourinho.

Mourinho smiled and shook his head. He had been mentally prepared.

"Okay, I won't force it, it's just a bit regretful. Originally, I thought you could go to La Liga with me to create another glory.

Let's not talk about it then. I noticed that you are not in particularly good form recently. I hope to see your best performance in the Champions League final. Can you do it? "

Regarding what Mourinho said, Leo himself knew very well. After dozens of games in a season, he was indeed a little tired.

Not only physically, but also mentally.

So regardless of the recent games, Leo still has a lot of goals and assists, but his performance is definitely not particularly good.

The Champions League final is different. He will definitely find a way to adjust his condition and be in the best condition to face the most important game of the season.

"Don't worry, boss, I will definitely give my best performance!"

Leo's answer was sonorous and powerful, and his eyes were full of determination!

…    On May 5, in the thirty-seventh round of Serie A, Inter Milan faced Chievo at home.

This game is also the Nerazzurri’s last home game of the season.

Therefore, Inter Milan supporters came to Meazza to cheer for the team.

Lucio is out with a calf injury, Cordoba and Pandev, who has recovered from injury, have not been included in the squad. Materazzi and Samuel partnered as central defenders, with Balotelli, Milito and Eto'o forming the three forwards.

The visiting team Chievo is currently in the middle of the standings, with no worries about relegation and no hope of European competition.

However, their head coach Di Carlo still stated in the pre-match interview that Chievo will do their best to win.

Under the attention of 75,000 spectators, Inter Milan, playing at home, took the lead in kicking off the game.

At the beginning of the game, Leo made a pass from the frontcourt, and Eto'o dribbled the ball into the right side of the penalty area!

Then Eto'o cleverly picked the ball and turned away from the two visiting team defenders. He volleyed the ball towards the center with his left foot!
  Mantovani accidentally knocked the ball into his own goal while making an overhead kick!
  One to zero!

The Nerazzurri took the lead with their opponent's own goal!

Soon after, Cambiaso instigated a counterattack after stealing the ball from Sardo in midfield!
  Six Inter Milan players advanced to the opponent's penalty area at high speed!
  Maicon took the ball from the right to the far post. Leo suddenly moved forward and, unmarked, volleyed the ball from a small angle with his left foot into the near corner of the goal!

Two to zero!
  After two seasons, this young, handsome and powerful midfielder has unknowingly become the darling of countless Nerazzurri.

When Leo celebrated his goal, the huge portrait unfolded in the North Stand was none other than Inter Milan's No. 10 wearing a crown.

Leo has long been the prince of Inter Milan in the eyes of all the Nerazzurri die-hards. He only needs a suitable opportunity to ascend the throne and be crowned!
  Leo also ran to the stands and kissed the Inter Milan team emblem on the chest of the jersey in front of the enthusiastic fans.

The rain was slightly heavier, and Inter Milan, playing at home, took the initiative to slow down the pace.

Before halftime, Zanetti made a mistake. His cross pass in the backcourt was too light, and Pellissier suddenly started to steal the ball!
  Facing the Inter Milan goalkeeper alone, Pellisier calmly pushed the shot into the far corner from the penalty area line and succeeded!

Two to one!
  Chievo pulls back a win!
  In the second half, Inter Milan did not hold back and launched an attack with all its strength.

In the 51st minute, Maicon sent a long pass from the backcourt, and Balotelli advanced from the right to form a single!

Facing the Chievo goalkeeper who abandoned the goal, Bashen shot with his right foot. The ball flew over Sorrentino's head and flew into the left side of the goal!

Three to one!

Inter Milan extends its lead!
  Four minutes later, Leo accurately passed the diagonal ball into the space on the right. Eto'o accelerated and beat the Chievo full-back and passed it in front of the goal!
  Milito dribbled horizontally along the edge of the penalty area and observed Sorrentino's forward position. He directly took off his right foot and shot towards the goal!

The ball bounced off the visiting team defender Frey's body and once again went over the goalkeeper and into the door!
  Four to one!

Mourinho's team secures victory!

Subsequently, the home team made three consecutive substitutions. Thiago Motta, Wang Dong and Chivu came on the bench successively. Cambiasso, Eto'o and Kolarov were replaced.

The game ended soon, and Inter Milan defeated its opponent four to one at home.

All the fans gave a standing ovation, and the Nerazzurri players, led by captain Zanetti, waved to the fans in the stands.

Inter Milan also maintained an unbeaten record at home for two consecutive seasons after Mourinho took charge!
  In these thirty-eight Serie A games, you can count the draws on one hand, and the remaining Nerazzurri all won at Meazza.

It is the team's outstanding performance that has won unanimous praise from fans.

After the game, coach Mourinho rarely had the "generousness" to give all the players two days off.

Inter Milan's players will report back to the training base next Wednesday afternoon and start preparing for the final round of the league against Siena next Sunday.

A week passed quickly, and Mourinho led the team to Tuscany for the last Serie A game of the season.

"Brother Dong, how do you feel now?"

Leo asked Wang Dong with a smile how he felt about the upcoming match against his old club.

"Hey, why are you talking about this? No matter who the opponent is, as a professional player, you can play every game to the best of your ability."

As he said this, the expression on Wang Dong's face said it all.

As the first stop for landing in Apennines, Wang Dong was here. With everyone's help, he successfully gained a foothold.

It was also because of his outstanding performance in Siena that he was spotted by Mourinho and became a member of the Inter Milan team.

After this turbulent season, Siena has already locked in a relegation spot.

So whether he can stay at Inter Milan or not, of course there is a high probability that he will not stay. In short, Wang Dong will definitely transfer from Siena next season.

As for where to go, it’s hard to say yet.

After asking the players for their opinions, Mourinho asked King Dong to start in today's game against Siena!
  Today coincides with club president Moratti's sixty-fifth birthday, and the team hopes to celebrate his birthday with a victory!
  In the first half, Leo's scalpel pass instantly tore up the home team's defense. Wang Dong's right foot from the sideline of the penalty area hit the goal to help Inter Milan break the deadlock!

Milito's calm low shot in the second half rewritten the score to 2-0, and Inter Milan easily won away from home.

So far, this season's Serie A has ended, and Inter Milan has won the championship seven rounds ago.

This is also the 18th Italian top league championship trophy in the history of the Nerazzurri.

At the same time, Inter Milan also became the first team to win five consecutive Serie A titles since Juventus from 1931 to 1935!
  Leo also ended his second Serie A season with perfect statistics of 36 league appearances, scoring 20 goals and 34 assists.
