Chapter 68 Truce

Degan was lying in a hospital bed with a plaster cast on his left leg. It felt as if he no longer existed. After the examination results came out, both he and the team doctor were petrified.

Left calf fibula fracture!

The doctor who examined Digan was shocked when he heard that he could still play through the entire game after he had broken a bone. Looking at his eyes, it was clearly written: non-human!

Injured, and then need further treatment, but Digan already knew that he will be absent from the game for at least three months this time, which means that he will not even think about playing until the end of the winter break .

Kaka called yesterday, and as he expected, Ancelotti was very dissatisfied with his hands, and appeared on the training ground with a black face for several days in a row.

The two national teams have caused many teams to suffer from the "FIFA virus", and AC Milan is no exception.

Digan's disease is not the only Milan player injured in the national team game. The Italian national team's main central defender Nesta also suffered a tendon injury in his left hand during the game. He will be out for at least a month, of course, if all goes well.

This means that he will miss the two Champions League games against Eindhoven, the most crucial one against Juventus on October 29, in addition to Cagliari, Palermo and Empoli. opponent.

As for where this accident started, it is not known. Some people say that after the Azzurri finished the match against Moldova on September 16, during the training before rushing to Scotland, the national team doctor Castellazzi discovered that Nesta Some wrist problems, but in the end just sent a sick Del Piero home.

The Milan defender stayed on to play against Scotland, and it was that negligence that led to the result today. Those who hold this view mainly come from AC Milan. Some people also said that Nesta's left hand has been injured for a long time, and that a blunt touch in Milan's match with Schalke 04 made the injury worse. Of course, those who say this basically work for the Azzurri.

The subsequent development of the matter has been affirmed by both parties. When Nesta found his left thumb could not move when serving lunch at the national team training base last Friday, he quickly found Castellaci for inspection. The latter said : "I did not make a diagnosis of the injury and quickly consulted the team doctor of AC Milan."

After this phone call, Sala, the chief doctor of the Rossoneri, proposed on behalf of the club that the players should not participate in the national team game the next day. Galliani also had a heated argument with the chairman of the Football Association Carraro.

But the national team's point of view is very clear. The injury was mainly caused by the match between Schalke 04 and Milan. Nesta participated in the subsequent match against Regina. Therefore, he can also play against Scotland. Nesta himself wishes It also played a big role, and he offered to express his desire to play.

Nesta appeared in the national team game as he wished, and Galliani couldn't be happy with the clearly visible bandage on his left hand.

"For the national team, I don't want to say anything." Galliani once said.

And two hours before the club officially announced the news of the operation, he said: "I don't want to cause controversy. This is an accident, but after all Nesta was injured in the national team after a medical examination, but everyone should think about it." Do your job well."

In fact, after the battle against Schalke 04, Nesta once told the Milan team doctor that he had pain in his hand, but the latter only conducted a simple examination, neither taking X-rays nor MRI, and the doctor also said the situation in the next few days It is getting better and better, but in the national team, it is a simple action of taking the plate, but it has caused such serious consequences.

Is the Rossoneri careless?

The issue of how to balance the interests of the national team and the club was once again put on the table. According to Kaka, AC Milan is likely to propose compensation to the Italian and Belgian national teams for his and Nesta's injuries.

On the issue of compensation, Nesta can be regarded as the originator. In the 1998 World Cup match between Italy and Austria, the cruciate ligament of the right knee was seriously injured and rested for six months, which made Lazio President Craniotti furious. It also triggered the suggestion in the 2000 European Championship that players who were injured in the national team should be given Affiliated club compensation.

Of course, everyone knows that Milan's losses cannot be compensated by money. Without Degan, Milan still has Shevchenko, Gilardino, Vieri, and Inzaghi who has returned from injury, and everyone knows that Degan is in Ancelotti's lineup. It was never essential.

And Nesta is different. Ancelotti doesn't have much choice in the central defender position. He can only let Maldini and Stam partner in the middle. The premise is that the Cavaliers' knees don't make trouble. The substitute candidate in the middle can only move out of the old goblin Costacurta again.

Pirlo, who is also in the Italian national team, was also injured during the game. Fortunately, he was only slightly injured and only needed a few days of rest. But despite this, the number of AC Milan first-team players has also decreased sharply.

The so-called FIFA virus does not just refer to players getting injured in national team matches. Even if the player is not injured, it is very tiring to travel long distances to participate in the national team game, and then fly back to participate in the club game that is close at hand. Players will feel tired physically, especially mentally, during such an intensive schedule. Therefore, it is inevitable that there will be ups and downs in the state, mainly in terms of physical fitness. Many players who participated in the national team competitions are often very tired in the next league. They cannot run on the court at all, and their legs are full of lead Same. This is why the head coaches of many clubs hate their players participating in national team competitions.

It's okay to talk about European games, but it's annoying for players from South America, Africa and Asia, because they need to fly tens of thousands of kilometers back and forth to participate in a national team game, which consumes a lot of energy. Big, with ups and downs, it seems useless to the club.

Chinese overseas players have suffered such hardships.

Why does Magath particularly hate Chinese players?

Because every time Yang Chen got better at the club, the national team would recruit him to participate in the competition, regardless of whether it was an important game or not, anyway, if it was a national team game, Yang Chen had to go back. After such a toss, the state is gone, and he still has the risk of injury in the national team. This kind of back and forth, no one can stand it, so Magath later became annoyed by Chinese players. Yang Chen is no longer ranked in the eyes of Magath, and the same is true of other Chinese overseas players.

There are even players who have worked hard abroad to receive a notice from the Football Association of their province asking them to return to China to participate in the National Games. For most Chinese players, the National Games is really not a game worth flying back to, but they have to go back because their roots are in their hometown and their organizational relationship is with the Provincial Football Association. The Football Association is their direct management department, and they must obey the call of the Football Association, otherwise you will not be able to get along in Chinese football in the future.

Everyone must protect their own interests. As the executive chairman of AC Milan, Galliani's natural position is to lean towards the interests of the club.

A player who is always unable to guarantee that he can play consecutively in club games, but runs to win glory for the country when the club needs him, is unlikely to get preferential treatment in the club anyway. After all, it is not the national team that pays the players, but the club.

I spend money to let you recuperate in my team, and then you go to the national team to contribute all your strength? No matter who will not agree!

Why does Moratti hate Ronaldo so much? Ronaldo has been injured for more than a year. Inter Milan has tried its best to help him heal the injury. They are not in arrears with a penny of wages. It is hard to wait for Ronaldo to return from injury. South Korea shined in the World Cup, the result?

Moratti waited happily for Ronaldo to lead Inter Milan back to the glory of the Inter Milan era, but Ronaldo actually asked to leave.

There are still many clubs who don't like to buy African players, especially if the Africa Cup of Nations is the next year, such as the Premier League team.

Because the Africa Cup of Nations is held in January, at this time, for the Premier League teams, the official schedule is the densest and the competition is the most intense. Because the important players in the team are African nationals, they have to go back to participate in the Africa Cup of Nations and miss at least half of the time. Months of competition, who can bear it?

For the more than half a month of the game, the team still needs to temporarily introduce a player during the winter break to replace the player who left the team.

Why bother?

Ancelotti did have a reason to get angry. Of course Degan also knew that this anger was definitely not because of his injury. Maybe Ancelotti was still looking for a place to have fun at the moment. Degan was gone, so he could Justifiably ignoring this nasty Brazilian, and instead reusing Shevchenko and Gilardino whom he admires more, why not do it, and even if possible, he hopes that Degan will retire directly due to injury, so as to save another Come to Milan and make things difficult for him.

Galliani was busy wrangling the Italian Football Association and the Belgian Football Association, but he didn't even call Degan to appease him, which made Degan feel chilling.

Although the players get paid and play for the team, it is an employment relationship, even if it is really an employment relationship, at least it should have a little human touch, but obviously, this kind of human touch has become a reality in Milan. Luxuries, of course, they also have a human touch, but they are for their own people. Like Digan, he is at best a day laborer, and Galliani naturally does not want to waste his feelings on him.
