Chapter 869 Messi’s Rant

"To put it simply, we didn't do a very good job and I'm really disappointed. I don't want to complain too much, Inter Milan performed better. You have to admit that they had the ball better and I believe they did a better job in that regard. Adequate preparation. In fact, we should use the ball to control the situation on the court, but we kept losing the ball, which was the reason for the loss." Van Gaal pointed out the reason for the team's defeat and said that Bayern will win in the second The round staged a comeback. "It will be an absolutely different game at the Allianz Arena and we will be significantly improved, I have no doubt about that and hopefully we can get our morale back up soon. We have two away goals and we will give it our all to win the game. We had two away goals and that was our advantage."

However, the media performances of the two clubs are different.

Italy's "Gazzetta dello Sport": "Mourinho is infinitely close to the Bernabeu! Inter Milan achieved a brilliant victory at the Meazza Stadium. The goals of Chinese Dong and Milito gave Inter Milan a 3:2 victory. In the victory, although Robben and Ribery also performed very well, they still could not reverse the game at Meazza. Now Van Gaal's team needs at least a 1:0 to come back and face Mourinho's ball. It’s not easy for the team to do this.”

"Corriere dello Sport": "Inter Milan drove Bayern away from the Bernabeu! The Serie A champions told people that they know how to drive away Bayern. With the goals of Chinese Dong and Milito, the magical Mourinho completely suppressed Van Gaal's goal team. If Bayern wants to achieve a comeback in the second round at the Allianz Arena, Bayern needs to make a huge effort."

"This is not the strongest Inter Milan this season. They didn't even perform at 70% of their level. But this is Inter Milan and Bayern Munich can't do anything to them. Inter Milan's players have been playing hard throughout the game. Not in form, but they still controlled the game and won. Next week at the Allianz Arena, Inter Milan will still firmly hold the initiative in their own hands. They look very likely to reach the Champions League again this year. Final." "Turin Sports News" is also optimistic about Inter Milan.

The three major sports media in Italy are all optimistic about Inter Milan, but the opinions in Germany are different.

"Bild": "The Champions League hangs on a thread! Both physically and mentally, Inter Milan is stronger than Bayern. The Bayern that appears at Meazza tonight is the Bayern we are familiar with. But Inter Milan is indeed more worthy. To win. Next week at the Allianz Arena, Bayern must complete a comeback to have a chance of reaching the final at the Bernabeu."

"Süddeutsche Zeitung": "The most cruel defeat! Bayern lost in front of the brave Inter Milan. This is the first time Van Gaal has failed in such a way. Maybe this day will come sooner or later, but unfortunately it Now appearing in the Champions League semi-finals, if today's state and performance continue, it will be difficult for Bayern to achieve a comeback in the second round at home."

"Kicker" expressed a different opinion: "2:3 is not the end of the world. Bayern retains hope. Back at home, they can advance to the finals as long as they win against Inter Milan. When did we become so disappointed with Bayern Munich? There is a spirit in the world called Deutschland, which never predicts the result until the game is over."

Surprisingly, the result of another Champions League semi-final was also 3:2. Real Madrid and Barcelona also staged a goal battle at home. In the end, Real Madrid won a thrilling 3:2 at home against Barcelona. The player who scored the goal from Real Madrid They are Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaka and Ramos respectively, and the person who scored the goal for Barcelona was Messi. Messi scored twice, but he still couldn't save Barcelona.

This time last year, Real Madrid tied with Barcelona at home, but was defeated by Barcelona 3:2 in the second round. It seems that the plot will be the opposite this year.

Dong Fangzhuo also called Ronaldo to congratulate him after the game and encouraged him to continue to defeat Barcelona in the away game. He looked forward to the two of them meeting together in the final.

The only thing that makes the two of them depressed is that Messi's goals ranked first. With two goals, Messi ranked first with 17 goals. Although Ronaldo scored one goal, he only scored 16 goals. Dong Fangzhuo was even worse, scoring only 13 goals and was far from the top. Messi has a four-goal gap.

Ronaldo seems to still have hope of catching up with Messi, but Dong Fangzhuo is 4 goals behind and seems to have no hope of catching up.

The media in Catalonia are still very optimistic. "World Sports News" jumped out and analyzed the second round match, "Although they lost 2:3 in the away game, but back at home, what did Barcelona do to Real Madrid every minute?" Playing football, if it weren't for the referee, Real Madrid would never have won at home."

They incidentally put the blame for the loss on the referee, "Their victory was not honorable. Everyone knows what happened. This is simply a crime."

"But we have Messi, who can lead the team to defeat them. Messi currently ranks first in the scorer list with 17 goals. He has every chance to score 2 or even 3 more goals, breaking the 19 set by Chinese Dong last year. He broke the Champions League scoring record and became the first player in the Champions League.”

Even Messi couldn't restrain his excitement. In an interview with "Daily Sports", he said, "I am confident to lead the team to defeat Real Madrid at home. I am also confident to break the Champions League scoring record. I think these two things Everything is important and of course if I had to choose one, I would definitely choose to beat Real Madrid and get to the final, it’s something I think about every day when I go to bed.”

"I said last year that we need to transform, both myself and Barcelona, ​​we need to be braver and we need to get back what we lost. Now there are two games left and we have to stay focused and confident until the end .”

What have Messi and Barcelona lost?

Naturally it’s Barcelona’s Champions League and Messi’s Golden Goal. Messi is now dreaming about leading the team to win the Champions League, and then winning the Ballon d'Or himself...

The pro-Real Madrid newspaper Aspen published an article: "Santiago Bernabeu: Real Madrid VS Inter Milan, no other team has anything to do with it."

"Top scorer: Cristiano Ronaldo, champion: Real Madrid." "Marca" also holds a similar view, "It is useless to increase the sense of presence. This year's Real Madrid will definitely be able to reach the Champions League final, and Cristiano Ronaldo will also Keep upping his goal tally."

In fact, Real Madrid is also trying to gain a sense of presence, because Barcelona has already won the league championship, and Real Madrid now only has one Copa del Rey to compete for. If Real Madrid cannot enter the final Champions League final, they will still be crushed by Barcelona...
