The Day I Played with Ronaldo

Chapter 226 Serie A Opening Game

Although the party held by captain Zanetti was very successful, it does not mean that Ricardo can integrate into the team so easily.

However, Ronaldo, the team's biggest boss, is his own brother, and no one in the team dares to offend him, so his integration process is smoother than ordinary players.

It can be seen in the training that although not everyone deliberately tries to please him, they will basically give him a smiling face when facing him, which is not costly.

In addition to Adriano, Ricardosun made several friends. There is Recoba, this big boy is 28 years old, but he looks young; there is Martins, although the two have conflicting positions, but Martins is Ronaldo's little fan, and he is also very affectionate to Ricardo; There is also Vieri, the prince of nightclubs. Vieri looked like a big brother. He patted his chest and said that he would let Ricardo know all the nightclubs in Milan within a month.

Cambiasso has finally been officially announced, and Inter Milan's signings are still continuing. Favalli and Mikhailovich will soon join Inter Milan on a free transfer.

Mikhailovich originally wanted to choose No. 11, but after Adriano gave up No. 10 to Ricardo, he picked up No. 11 and wore it. The free kick master Mikhailovich had to choose No. 22.

Edgar Davis finally negotiated his personal conditions with Inter Milan and joined him on a free transfer. He chose the No. 8 jersey.

This season, Inter Milan continues to use a budget-conscious signing policy. Except for Ricardo who spends more, the rest are less than 10 million or even free signings.

As for the structure of signings, there are experienced veterans Veron at the age of 29, Davis at the age of 31, Ze Maria at the age of 30, Mikhailovich at the age of 35 and Favalli at the age of 31. , can form immediate combat power; there are also 18-year-old Ricardo, 23-year-old Burdisso, and 24-year-old Cambiasso who are preparing for the future. At least those transfer experts can't fault it.

Apart from being criticized for letting Cannavaro go, there is really nothing wrong with it.

Players such as Helveg, Adani, Caron, Almeida, and Ventola also left the team one after another.

Returned a little blood for Inter Milan.

Calculated, Inter Milan's net transfer expenditure this season was less than 30 million euros.

Before September, Inter Milan 66 played several consecutive friendly matches, and the results were not bad. Ricardo played all the games, some as substitutes, and scored and assisted many times. However, Mancini still seems to be of no use to him. The plan to play the main force.

He has used 3 formations in friendly matches, 352, 442 and 4321, which makes people wonder which one he plans to use as the main formation for the new season.

Ricardo appeared in 5 positions: midfielder, left midfielder, right midfielder and forward, and the left forward in the 4321 formation.

His personal favorite is the left winger position, and he also plays the best in this position. He often has beautiful breakthrough crosses, cut shots, or come to the center to assist the midfield organization, but he is not sure if he has achieved it. Mancini's expectations.

Ronaldo's status is unshakable, and in the choice of striker, Mancini showed a preference for Adriano.

The form of this preference is that he often fires at Adriano in training, asking Adriano to retreat and support more, and not to play so alone.

It can be seen that Mancini is more inclined to let Adriano be Ronaldo's assistant than Ricardo.

What can Ricardo say? You can only work harder in training.

This season's Serie A team has expanded from 18 teams to 20 teams, and the number of league games has increased from 34 to 38 rounds. This is an important reform of Serie A, how important is it? Basically, after this reform, Serie A quickly declined.

The time for the opening match is September 11.

Before taking part in the Serie A opener, Ricciardo, Ronaldo and Adriano received a call-up to the Brazil national team for two matches: a World Cup qualifier against Bolivia and a friendly against Germany.

After entering 2004, the Brazilian team's record in the World Cup qualifiers was not good. They drew 0:0 away with Paraguay and 1:1 away with Chile, but the 4:1 home victory against Argentina was remarkable. Ricardo also scored a goal as a substitute in that game.

On September 6, Brazil played against Bolivia at home, and all the big names from overseas returned, but Ricardo was unexpectedly arranged to play and partner with Ronaldo.

Ricardo did not waste this rare opportunity. He scored a goal in the second half and assisted Ronaldo to score a goal. Brazil defeated the opponent 5:1.

Presumably Pereira will be deeply impressed by Ricardo's performance this time.

And 3 days later, the Brazilian team played away against Germany, and most of the main players took turns. Ricardo came on at the last minute and assisted Ronaldo to score a goal in a 2-1 victory over German tanks in this friendly match.

After playing this game, the Brazilian team disbanded on the spot, and the players went to their own mothers.

Ricciardo, Ronaldo, Adriano, and Kaka flew back to Milan together. They didn't play the full game against Germany, so they weren't particularly tired, but it took time to recover from jet lag.

The day before the game, Ricardo was informed that he had been selected for the squad. Riccardo is very calm about this. Although it is difficult to compete for the main position at this stage, it is ridiculous that he is a strong intercontinental player and cannot be selected for the big list.

In the opening game of Serie A on September 11, at the Bente Gordy Stadium, facing the "Flying Donkey" Chievo, Inter Milan did not play well.

In this game, Mancini set up a 442 formation with parallel positions in the midfield. The goalkeeper Toldo, the back line is Zanetti, Mihajlovic, Materazzi and Favalli, Ze. Maria played right midfielder, Stankovic left midfielder, Veron and Davies partnered in midfield, and the striker combination was Ronaldo and Adriano.

On paper, it is not a problem for this team to play in the Champions League final, but facing Chievo, who was only promoted to the first division in 2001, Inter Milan couldn't come up with a good solution.

Although only 18 minutes into the game, Stankovic received a wonderful pass from Veron and scored a goal, but soon Mikhailovich was picked up by Semioli of the Chievo team because of a missed goal. Great advantage, the chest stopped the ball and shot successfully, tying the score.

In the 37th minute, Mikhailovich lost his defensive position again. Franceschini of the Chievo team pierced Inter Milan's defense with a direct pass. Pelissier easily broke into the penalty area and faced Toldo's block The poke shot into the near corner took the lead at home to Inter Milan.

Throughout the first half, Mikhailovich made 4 tops and made 3 defensive mistakes. The 35-year-old veteran couldn't find his form at all.
