"It's very common for players to leave the field due to injury during the game. However, it's rare for the starting striker to leave the field due to injury and the substitute striker to leave the field due to injury. Moreover, the injury is more serious. This happened last night in the Champions League final between Inter Milan and Eindhoven at home." Sports news was being broadcasted on the bar's TV.
The TV screen changed, and the video of the game between Inter Milan and Eindhoven appeared on the screen. This was the scene of Cassano being injured and carried out on a stretcher. Then, the Inter Milan manager Li Ang's livid face appeared on the screen. He also kicked away the mineral water bottle at his feet. Looking at his posture, it seemed that he could not help but rush into the field to fight.
Then, the post-match press conference appeared. Li Ang said in an extremely sarcastic tone, "The Eindhoven players have the gold medal for avoiding death today. No matter how bad their actions were, the referee seemed to be blind at that moment … Oh, oh, oh. Also, is our referee from the Animal Protection Association?"
The screen changed, and the face of the news program host appeared. "I bet that the UEFA will not like Coach Li Ang's remarks. Of course, his big mouth is not new. The Eindhoven club protested immediately after the game. Of course, the Inter Milan club also appealed to the referee's decision after the game."
"I can completely understand Coach Li Ang's anger," the presenter said. "In the league match against Napoli this weekend, Agüero and Cassano were injured. Coupled with Adriano's suspension in the league, he only has one striker available. It's even impossible to deploy two strikers."
"Damn those Eindhoven people."
"Damn the referee!"
In the bar, the Inter Milan fans cursed angrily.
The fans knew their team's situation best. As the presenter said, Inter Milan was now facing a crisis in the frontline. They only had one striker, Diego Milito. Under such circumstances, if Diego Milito was not in good condition or even injured in the game, they would not even have a substitute striker.
"Inter Milan's situation in the league match against Napoli is worrying. It's very likely that they will suffer their first defeat of the season." Another presenter's words came from the TV, which caused a burst of cursing in the bar.
"Go to hell!"
"Shut up!"
"How can we lose to Napoli?"
"But the team's situation is a bit bad now," someone whispered.
"In this situation, we can only see what Li can do." An Inter Milan fan sighed.
"Li is not God. Can he conjure a striker out of thin air?" someone said dejectedly.

Pinenati Training Base, Inter Milan's Under-19 Youth Team training ground.
Inter Milan's Under-19 Youth Team performed well this year. They defeated Sampdoria 1-0 in last season's Youth League final, which ended this summer, and won Inter Milan's sixth Under-19 Youth League title (also known as the Giacinto Facchetti Cup). The previous five titles were in the 196364, 196566, 196869, 198889, and 200102 seasons. After winning the title, Giacinto Facchetti's son, Luca Facchetti, presented the Inter Milan youth team's winners' medals.
The Under-19 Youth Team's head coach, Vincenzo Esposito, was also praised by some Italian media, who believed that he had hopes of coaching Inter Milan in the future. Of course, the media also said that with Li Ang's coaching results and age, as long as Li Ang did not take the initiative to leave Inter Milan, other people would have to wait to take over.
"Say, what were the two of you doing just now? Why didn't you train properly? "Vincenzo Esposito's face was angry as he reprimanded his players.
Just now, the team was running laps, but Mario Balotelli and Francesco Borzoni were fooling around. The two boys then had a fierce quarrel.
Francesco Borzoni glanced at the head coach. His expression was a little scared, but also a little sad and angry.
Mario Balotelli, on the other hand, looked indifferent. When he saw Borzoni's sad and angry expression, he actually laughed.
"Francesco, you say it," Vincenzo Esposito said.
"It was Mario. He added something in my shower gel." As Francesco Borzoni spoke, he gritted his teeth and looked at Balotelli.
"Is that so? Mario. " Vincenzo Esposito looked at Balotelli. He really had a headache. The head coach of the youth team not only had to be responsible for training and games, but also had to be responsible for these messy things. He was simply the nanny of these boys.
In his team, Balotelli was the youngest, but when it came to football talent, this black boy was the most talented.
However, Balotelli's somewhat eccentric character really gave Vincenzo Esposito a headache.
Sometimes, Vincenzo Esposito was so angry that he even wanted to expel this boy from the team in his rage. However, he cherished Balotelli's football talent and pitied this boy's background. In the end, he chose to tolerate him.
*****
On August 12, 1990, Balotelli was born in Palermo, Italy. He was the son of Ghanaian immigrants. His biological parents' economic conditions were very poor. When Balotelli was two years old, he suddenly fell seriously ill. The poor boy was abandoned in the hospital by his biological parents and became an abandoned child.
Later, Balotelli was adopted by Francesco Balotelli's family. The adoptive parents doted on Balotelli and treated him as their own. From this experience, it could be seen that without his adoptive parents, Balotelli's fate could be very miserable. Later, Balotelli changed his surname and was now fighting for Italian citizenship.
It was unknown whether it was because of his tragic childhood or because this boy's brain circuit was naturally different from others. In any case, Balotelli was always in trouble in Pinenati. Of course, this boy's nature was not bad. He was just a little "unusual."
Faced with the head coach's questioning, Mario Balotelli did not have the slightest awareness that he had done something wrong. Instead, he looked proud as if he had done a good deed. "Yes, sir. I saw that Francesco's shower gel was about to run out, so I added some for him."
"That's very good." Vincenzo Esposito was surprised. This boy seemed to have done a good deed this time. Then he looked at Francesco Bolzoni. There was nothing wrong with this matter.
"He added mustard oil!" Francesco Bolzoni gritted his teeth and said. Until now, his dan-dan was still burning with pain. This made him very worried that his function would be affected.
