Chapter 183: Chapter 154: Keep Advancing! The Final 8 Rounds of the League, Sprinting Toward the Champions League Goal!

Allegri was furious!

After a 3-3 draw at home against Inter Milan.

The Juventus manager threw a tantrum in the locker room.

It’s not so much about dropping two points at home. In fact, for Juventus, who’ve already secured the Serie A championship, dropping two points or even losing three points at home to Inter doesn’t even make a ripple in their championship aspirations.

The league is like this, a 38-round marathon, far from being swayed by just one National Derby.

What made Allegri irritable wasn’t the loss of points, but the manner of dropping those two points!

In front of everyone, he didn’t give the decade-long Juventus veteran Chiellini any face, attributing all the dropped point to him!

"You’re a piece of trash!"

"We were up 11 to 10, and you still couldn’t defend the last corner!"

"Look at the fighting spirit of Inter, then look at us. Aren’t you ashamed?"

"Attention! You have to stay focused at all times! How could you let Tang Long sneak in a goal? It’s a disgrace!"

"With this form, you still dream of winning the Champions League? I feel embarrassed for you!"

Although he raged in the locker room.

But afterward, facing the media reporters.

Allegri completely changed his tune!

He didn’t mention the awkwardness and comedy of conceding the last goal and being forced into a draw despite having an extra player.

Instead, he lavishly praised Juventus’s midfield control in the match and correspondingly demeaned Inter.

"This is the most splendid National Derby I’ve coached at Juventus, yes, you heard me right, that’s what I said."

"We overpowered Inter across all three lines, especially in midfield, leaving the opponents helpless. They were entirely following our rhythm, being led by us!"

"Draw at the end?"

"That’s football. Luck is also an important part of the game, and today we’re a bit less fortunate than Inter."

"Was Tang Long’s advance move based on prediction?"

"Don’t talk nonsense haha! How could he know Chiellini would deflect the ball to the back post? Does he have an artificial intelligence machine in his mind? Don’t talk nonsense, it’s all about luck."

"I would like you to notice, this is a draw, Inter didn’t walk away with three points from our home!"

"Let’s review the past; last year we beat Inter twice and left them 42 points behind."

"This year, one win and one draw, still undefeated! We’re fighting for the Champions League title, while Inter is struggling for a Champions League spot."

"Over the years I’ve coached, Juventus and Inter are no longer on the same level of teams—not pleasant to hear, but it’s the truth!"

"Confidence for the Coppa Italia final at the end of May?"

"Absolutely dominating, taking it down!"

"We didn’t field all our main players in this match, reserving energy for the Champions League semi-final against Monaco, but by the end of May, in the Coppa Italia final, we won’t give Inter any opportunities. Remember, luck doesn’t favor you every game!"

When asked about Mancini’s tactical performance in this match being better than Allegri’s.

Allegri replied plainly, saying that Mancini went to the Premier League and lost touch with reality, and the tactics he learned from the Premier League aren’t suitable for Serie A, also saying Mancini is just an outdated manager nobody wants.

"Otherwise, why didn’t he stay at Manchester City?"

Afterward, Allegri simply left defiantly, not bothering to argue with the reporters.

This arrogant attitude also continued the animosity between the two!

On Thursday, at the Italian Football Federation’s full Serie A Alliance Managers’ meeting.

Allegri shook hands with managers from 18 Serie A teams, deliberately ignoring Mancini;

Mancini also shook hands with managers of all 18 Serie A teams, but walked right past Allegri without even looking!

Even when seating, the Juventus and Inter nameplates were originally next to each other.

However, Mancini greeted Samp’s manager Mika, and the two switched seats.

Seeing Allegri made Mancini sick, thinking of his revolting demeanor and his stinky rhetoric of "if he won, it was deserved; if not, then it was just the opponent’s good luck," made him want to pinch his nose and hurry away!

Even away from the field, the tense atmosphere between the two lingered.

Sky Sports also capitalized on this, featuring photographs of the two passing each other like strangers on the front page with the headline:

"Two Serie A giants’ managers continue their rivalry! Who will prevail in the Coppa Italia final?"

...

In Serie A’s 30th round, simultaneously another league match, Napoli ended in a 1-1 draw against Rome away.

With this, the top four in Serie A, Juventus, Rome, Napoli, and Inter, all ended in draws.

The league standings remained unchanged.

Inter secured a point at Juventus’ home, a significant boost for their quest for a top-three finish.

Though just one point, it at least ensured no loss ground in the competition against Napoli!

Both sides still hold a 3-point gap, just one match’s difference.

With 8 rounds remaining in the league, anything is possible.

In Serie A’s 31st round, back at home, Inter shows a rejuvenated spirit!

Players are filled with motivation to fight, a confidence and courage brought by drawing against Juventus with a man down.

"We managed to remain undefeated at Juventus’ home despite being a man down and broke their home winning streak this season! Other teams are nothing by comparison!"

Facing Cesena at home, Tang Long was on the bench.

Though Inter’s chief physician Comby submitted a report to Mancini indicating Tang Long’s brow injury condition allows him to play with protection.

For caution, Mancini chose to keep Tang Long with injured brow on the bench.

Tang Long, who played multiple consecutive matches, got a rare chance to rest.

Together with Berni, they leisurely waved towels from the sidelines, cheering for their teammates.

Despite committing a major offside mistake in the last match, causing Ranocchia to take the blame for him, Yuto Nagatomo started the match again.

He felt deeply grateful to Mancini and played vigorously to repay the manager’s trust.

In the 24th minute of the first half, he showcased his strengths on the wing.

"Yuto Nagatomo changes direction!"

"Strong wing press, crossed!"

"Icardi jumps in to score!"

"Beautiful! Nagatomo’s breakthrough showcased his agility, and the ensuing cross was spot-on!"

"Hopefully this assist helps him emerge from the shadow of last match’s National Derby mistake and prove himself again!"

Nagatomo was even more excited than the goal scorer Icardi with his assist.

He first went to the sidelines to high-five Mancini, then hugged Tang Long on the boundary!

"Haha, Tang, even without you on the field, I can play well!"

As the only two Asian players in the 2014-2015 Serie A season.

Tang Long and Yuto Nagatomo showcased the talent of Asian players on the Apennine Peninsula to European audiences!

Later in the match, Tang Long’s teammates performed exceptionally.

In the 56th minute of the match, Podolski scored with a low shot, 2-0!

Just five minutes later, Icardi sealed the victory with a header attack!

Punching out early!

Many Inter fans started leaving early to beat the traffic and reached the metro ahead of time.

Mancini subbed out key players like Icardi, Gualin, and Podolski to preserve their energy.

This 3-0 victory was effortlessly relaxing~

Tang Long hydrated comfortably on the sidelines.

He clearly felt it.

The draw against Juventus meant far more than just one point!

This draw significantly uplifted the team’s spirit.

The spiritual significance surpassed competitive importance.

This time Napoli didn’t falter, securing a 2-1 away victory against Bologna, maintaining their 3-point lead over Inter.

A week later.

Inter continued their back-to-back home games, facing Rome visiting in Serie A’s 32nd round.

When Tang Long appeared in the starting lineup, his slightly odd look stunned the Chinese fans watching the live broadcast...
