Chapter 162 Falcao's Salary
In the first half, the Inter Milan players who planned to play a normal game with Lazio felt that the game was still abnormal from the very beginning.
But it's not them who are abnormal this time, but Lazio.
They thought that Lazio would continue to deal with Inter Milan in the second half, and when Inter Milan's physical energy was almost exhausted, they would suddenly exert their strength.
Unexpectedly, just after the start of the second half, Lazio actually made efforts to speed up!
Started more through passes, the passing speed is also faster, and the movement of the players who cooperate with it has also accelerated the novel chapter.
The sudden acceleration gave Inter Milan's players a feeling of dizziness.
Modric received the ball from his teammate at the front of the penalty area, and he made a gesture to shoot from long distance. The cheated Cambiasso fell to the ground and blocked. Instead he pushed the football to the other side.
Falcao made a diagonal stab, and after receiving the football, swung his foot and shot vigorously.
The football flew past the defender and Inter Milan goalkeeper Cesar and flew into the goal!
"Beautiful volley! 'Tiger' Falcao!!! This is his tenth league goal of the season! Terrifyingly efficient killer!"
The narrator raised his arms and shouted.
Inter Milan's players were blindfolded.
The Inter Milan fans put their heads in their hands, in disbelief.
They almost besieged Lazio in the first half, but failed to score.
Just three minutes into the second half, Lazio scored a goal!
How could it be so fast?
The ball must have been fouled. Falcao was offside, right?
But unfortunately, neither the referee nor the linesman said anything, the ball is valid!
There was a huge cheer from the Lazio fans in one corner of the stands, although it was quickly drowned out by the clamor of the Inter fans.
After the goal, Falcao rushed to the camera again, and then beat the blue eagle logo on his chest.
He is using this way to express his meaning to the Lazio fans, I am a Lazio player! I will stay and fight with Lazio!
Claudio Mocio, the manager in the stands, frowned again.

Chang Sheng was not too excited. For him, leading Inter Milan in the game has become a habit.
He just gave Falcao a thumbs up.
Then he pointed to his temples with both hands, signaling the players to remain calm.
They are only leading by one goal, and this is at their home court. If they underestimate the enemy, they will be punished.
The best thing to do is to take the opportunity to make another move. After leading by two goals, with Lazio's ball control ability, the game is basically stable.
Lazio continued their rhythm after the restart.
It's even speeding up.
This speed makes Inter Milan uncomfortable, they can't keep up with Lazio's rhythm...
In the end, Inter Milan lost 0:2 to Lazio at home and was defeated.
After twelve league rounds, Lazio has ten wins, two draws and zero losses, scoring 25 goals. Conceded eight goals, scored 17 goals by goal, and topped the list with 32 points.
Inter Milan, which ranks second in the league, only has 25 points, which is as much as seven points behind Lazio.
After the game, some media said, "Whether Inter Milan is willing to admit it or not, the fact is that Inter Milan cannot threaten Lazio's position in the domestic league. This season, Lazio is aiming at the defending champion!"
"Inter Milan should consider shifting their focus to the Champions League. If they can't win the league title, as long as they can make a breakthrough in the Champions League. It can also stabilize Mancini's coaching position..."
Even "Gazzetta dello Sport" appeared articles, allowing Inter Milan to focus on the Champions League. Although it did not directly say to give up the domestic league. But everyone is not blind and foolish. They can see that the entire Inter Milan has actually given up the league, which is also a disguised recognition of Lazio's dominance in Italy.

Breno Pacheco saw the talk of surrendering to Lazio in the media he worked for, which made him, a victorious black, feel very sad, but at the same time he felt uncomfortable.
But what really made Pacheco angry was a report in the French "L'Equipe".
This report is how to evaluate the victorious Lazio.
"...In Italy, Lazio often built is already an invincible fleet. Their team gallops across the entire Serie A league. No team can beat them. Now even if they can draw with Lazio, it is already a This is an achievement worthy of special mention..."
He doesn't believe that Lazio is invincible, and he doesn't believe that a winning team will make no mistakes. There are no such teams and people in the world!
In the past, "Gazzetta dello Sport" was a staunch ally, no matter what the situation, they would criticize Chang Sheng.
Now even "Gazzetta dello Sport" have conceded, which makes Pacheco have a sense of tragedy alone.
But because of that. Pacheco's sense of mission is even stronger.
He must find Lazio's weakness, and he must completely shatter the myth of ever-victorious! He wants this arrogant guy to pay for his arrogance!
Pacheco called his boss and applied for a transfer to Rome.
"What are you going to do in Rome? Breno?" His superiors were surprised.
"I'm going to cover Lazio," Pacheco said.
"I remember you didn't like Chang..."
"Yes, that's why I have to observe him at the nearest place. "L'Equipe" even said that Lazio is the Armada. I can't accept such an argument. I can definitely find out their weaknesses."
The leader obviously knows the temper and character of the person under him very well.
So after listening to what he said, I didn't try to persuade him, but just nodded: "Okay, I approve you to go to Rome. But Brenau, Chang is not an easy person to get along with. Don't let yourself fall into the whirlpool."
Pacheco replied: "I will carefully hide in the shadows and watch patiently."

Just when Pacheco had just arrived in Rome, Falcao was being taught by his agent Claudio Mocio in his apartment.
"What are you doing! Romedal? You have done this for two games in a row! If you want to show your love for the fans, can you prove it in another way? It makes me very passive!"
Mocio slams the newspaper in Falcao's face.
"Look, the newspapers are full of photos of you slapping the team logo! Everyone is saying that you love this team and you want to stay longer... Such a public opinion environment. How do you ask me to ask the club for you? Higher salary!"
Falcao, who had acted like a tiger on the pitch, was now smirking at his agent.
"Don't you want to raise your salary?" Seeing Falcao's expression, Moxio couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"Uh, I think, Claudio, I think." Falcao quickly put away his smirk. Seriously.
"So that's what you think? Now, stop showing any signs that you intend to stay at Lazio, so the club will say to me 'you see the players themselves don't want to go'. You leave it to me , I'll talk to you."
"What if a fan asks if I will stay at Lazio?" Falcao asked.
"You tell them that you don't know about the future. You have to think about it. You are the top scorer in the team now, and you were the top scorer last season. You have only played 12 rounds in the league, and you have already scored 10 goals. It's the ball. You have a great chance to become the league's Golden Boot this season! Such an outstanding performance, but what about the salary you get in the club? The annual salary is only half a million euros! This doesn't match your performance at all! The club owes you. Don't act like you owe the club!"
The agent, Claudio Mocio, completely silenced Farr.
Falcao himself actually felt that 500,000 euros a year was less.
But when he thought that when he was unknown in River Plate, it was Lazio who valued him, brought him to Italy, and then gave himself such a broad world.
I can have today, I should thank the Lazio club.
But his agent, Claudio Mocio, obviously doesn't see it that way.
Falcao thought about it carefully and felt that money was more important.
So he nodded.
"Well, do as you say, Claudio."

After Pacheco arrived in Rome. Did not immediately go to the Lazio club to start an interview.
He actually bought one copy of each of the newspapers that have reported the latest news about Lazio that can be sold on the market recently. Then began to shut himself in the apartment and began his journey of finding clues.
He does not believe that Lazio is really invincible.
There must be some weaknesses.
Generally speaking. If a team can't be beat from the outside, break them down from the inside.
So there must be problems within this team.
Where is the problem?
Pacheco is a seasoned reporter.
It was easy for him to guess the tension between the players' growing fame and their continuing meager salaries.
Especially Falcao.
The head striker of Lazio has a salary of only half a million euros a year.
Such a low salary is almost the same as Falcao working for them for nothing.
So far, Falcao has not come out to complain about abnormal salary.
But Pacheco thinks it won't be long before Falcao will start making trouble. There are many reasons. Neither he nor his agent will be satisfied with earning half a million a year.
With Falcao's current performance, many wealthy teams are willing to give him five million euros a year!
Maybe I can make a fuss about this matter, and then find a breakthrough.
Falcao must not be alone, in Lazio's dressing room. There are many others like him.
They are all good performers, but low salaries.
The fortress, let it collapse from the inside!
It's a good idea to start with money matters.
Professional players are all profit-seeking under the instigation of their agents.
Especially for the players in South America, loyalty means nothing to them, they only want money.
