"In this game, the referee's law enforcement is like a one-way street."

"He definitely thinks that Juventus players are Crystal, we can't touch them, we can foul them as soon as we touch them."

"The referee doesn't let us play football at all, we can't play football with Crystal."

"Juventus has many stars, and we are not as powerful as our opponents, but this time we play better."

"It's a pity that the referees don't let us play football, we've never seen such referees or linesman."

...

When Gao Han raised the freshly baked Milan Sports News and looked at what was published on it, when Livorno Chairman Spinelli complained last night in an interview with Sky TV, Jorge Mendes, who was sitting opposite him, was voraciously trampling on the delicious breakfast on the table without any image.

Looking at the partner in front of him, Gao Han looked like I didn't know him at all, and curled his lips and continued reading the newspaper.

Turning over a page, it's about this game between Juventus and Livorno.

In an interview with Livorno's head coach Mazoni, his attitude was much more relaxed than Chairman Spinelli, but he also said bluntly, "Everyone will make mistakes, the players will make mistakes, the coach will make mistakes, and the referee will make mistakes."

But then, he added, "It's just that in this game, the referees seemed to be a bit outrageously wrong."

According to the newspaper, yesterday was Mazoni's 70th birthday. The team hoped to give him a special birthday gift, so the whole team was holding back their energy and wanted to win a victory in Juventus.

The old coach has coached 784 games. Including three play-offs, he has caught up with the 787-game record of AC Milan's legendary coach Rocco. In response, Mazoni said helplessly, "This game is turning into a joke."

As an old coach who has coached for 39 years, Mazoni finally said that he was very satisfied with the game and everything.

Gao Han couldn't help but sigh when he saw this.

Mazoni may not have any outstanding results, but it is not easy to be able to work in professional football for 39 years.

Jorge Mendes, who was sitting opposite him, heard a sigh, grabbed the napkin and wiped his mouth, and asked with a smile: "Do you think that the voices against the referee and Juventus have become much louder recently?"

"Huh?" Gao Han put down the newspaper and looked at his agent strangely.

Mendes smiled unpredictably.

The Portuguese can rise rapidly in European football. Although Gao Han is supporting him, providing him with a steady supply of talents and making him a guest of major teams, in fact, he still has to have this ability himself.

The tragic case of the mud that cannot be supported on the wall is as much as possible.

As an agent, Mendes has his own source of information, and many of them are often unknown to the club.

Seeing his intentionally keeping him indifferent, Gao Han felt angry. He invited you to dinner early in the morning and even hanged him up to sell it?

“Either say or get out.”

"Okay, okay, your boss, I'll accept you." Mendes quickly laughed and begged for mercy.

"Actually, if the referee measures a game, he will definitely have some psychological favoritism to a strong team. It cannot be a good deal. According to the information I have obtained, it is about 60%. However, Juventus has received a referee favoritism in the past few years, but no one in Italian football said that it is strange?"

Gao Han nodded, "I guess, it's probably someone above."

But after hearing this, Mendes still smiled and shook his head, and compared his index finger with his right hand to the top of his head, "There are people above."

"More than that?"

"Then let me say it first. I heard the following words, and there is no real evidence. Don't ask me for evidence."

"explain."

"I heard that Moji has a very close relationship with Interior Minister Pisanu and Economic Minister Siniscalko. From judges, financial police, to the Football Association and the referee committee, there are people. To put it simply, they are in the same group."

"What?" Gao Han was surprised and lost his voice. Isn't this too outrageous?

On the contrary, Mendes waved to Gao Han calmly, signaling him not to make a fuss.

"Football plays a vital appeal in Italy. When Berlusconi was able to come to power, it was inseparable from AC Milan. It was not surprising that Moji had connections with senior government officials."

Gao Han quickly calmed down and gradually accepted it.

People say that Italy is the most important country in Europe. If Moji does not have a tough backstage, who believes it?

"When I first came to Italy, someone told me that Xiao Moji's gea agency in Italian football covers the sky with one hand. Those who follow the situation will prosper, and those who go against it will perish. In order to coerce players to sign a contract, many of their methods are simply the same as those of the Mafia, and they can be said to be using everything."

"At that time, the Roman procuratorate investigated Xiao Moji's agency and collected a lot of evidence, but the result was still in vain. The outside world had no way to obtain the evidence. It is said that it was suppressed by the people above."

Gao Han was a little dumbfounded when he heard this. This was just too much to do his best.

However, he quickly remembered another thing, "But you say, why are there so many rumors about Juventus recently?"

"That's the point." Mendes laughed. In Gao Han's almost murderous look, he took a sip of coffee before continuing. "In recent times, Moji's actions have indeed been big. I guess this was also forced by you."

"I'm so stupid?" Gao Han was surprised, why did he have to take the blame by himself?

"He wants to win the championship and he has to beat Inter Milan, but you have led Inter Milan to win all the way. Do you think he can agree?"

Mendes' explanation made Gao Han helpless, and it was my fault for this.

"In addition to his own reasons, I also received news that Italy is going to have a general election."

"Well, I know, it's April."

"Then do you know who is the opponent Berlusconi is fighting for re-election?"

"I know, Romano Prodi, has been very hyped in the news recently. He just stepped down from the position of President of the European Commission. I heard that his reputation is very high and he beat Berlusconi during the polls."

"Yes, the reason Prodi was able to get so much support is because of his promise that after being elected, it would bring more orderly democracy to Italy, and he was targeting Berlusconi."

When Gao Han heard this, he immediately understood.

Not long ago, the Milan procuratorate launched an investigation into Berlusconi because in 1997 he bribed witnesses to testify in favor of him. Berlusconi held a press conference in Rome, publicly accusing the Italian judicial system of the situation, believing that it was used by people with ulterior motives to deal with him, and there was an ulterior motive of the political purpose behind it.

It is indeed incredible that an incumbent prime minister criticizes his country's judicial system.

Not only that, the chaos and predation of Italy under Berlusconi have long been well known. As an opposition, it is understandable that Prodi makes use of this.

"The Italian government's corruption has been deeply rooted in its bones. It is impossible to change it in a short period of time. I believe Prodi himself knows this clearly."

Gao Han nodded repeatedly, "You mean, Prodi wants to make soft persimmons to make political achievements and express his determination?"

"Well." Mendes nodded, "He promised that voters would achieve results in the first year, but in fact, even if his Democratic Party was elected, it did not have enough strength to lead the government alone, so it needed to rely on other small political parties to form a coalition government. It would not take a long time to reorganize the Italian political atmosphere."

"In fact, scandals have been going on in Italian football history. As early as 1980, Serie A had a shocking bet case. Eight teams including Juventus, AC Milan, Lazio, and Naples were involved. At that time, the police even rushed into the stadium to catch people, and AC Milan and Lazio were also sentenced to be relegated. Ross and Blacks Chairman Colombo was sentenced to life ban. Among the many players who were punished, there were many superstars like Paul Rossi."

"In 1998, in an interview with Express Weekly, the famous head coach Zeman publicly accused Juventus players of abuse of banned drugs, which caused a stir at that time. The case was tried from 1998 to 2004, and Juventus chairman Giraudo was finally sentenced to not guilty. Two unlucky team doctors became scapegoats, and Zeman was away from the Serie A for a long time."

"In 2004, Italy broke out again in a counterfeit game, and the impact was even greater than in 1980s. At that time, everyone thought it was going to be a big deal, but in the end it was still in vain. However, small characters such as Siena and Modena were taken out as typical examples, while other teams survived."

"As early as that time, the punishment of the Italian Football Association caused a lot of criticism, and many people even began to question the trial process of the Italian Football Association, because it was impossible that only these people were involved, but after the end, no one would pursue it anymore."

"The Genoa incident in the future last year also caused quite a lot of controversy, but this time the Italian Football Association decisively made a move, and there was no participation of the giant teams, so the incident quickly subsided."

"Not only the Italian Football Association, but the Naples Procuratorate once doubted the results of many Serie A teams and proposed an investigation, but the results have not been made public so far. Sky TV has also conducted research on 19 league games, but the results have not been announced to the public."

Gao Han listened silently, and couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

This is the Little World Cup that he has always admired!

From the Football Association to the Club to the Players, and even the Agents, there are constant scandals and dark stories.

No wonder, after playing Lazio, Morati and Facheti would come to Gao Han and ask if they would come forward to public relations. That was because they all knew very well that this was the whole environment.

"You should understand that professional football has never been just a matter of professional football. It is more like a microcosm of the entire society. The secrets and shady scenes of the Italian political and business circles will naturally affect the professional league, and no one can escape."

Mendes smiled bitterly and shook his head, and there was nothing he could do about it.

"Prodi is a smart man and a standard politician. He knows very well where his ruling foundation lies. He dare not move lightly in the government system, let alone move around. On the contrary, professional football has a great influence, but it is insignificant in the eyes of politicians. It can be used to kill the chicken and warn the monkeys and make a show for Italian voters."

"So, I heard that as long as Prodi is really elected to power, this storm will soon sweep, and no one knows how many teams will participate in it and how much impact it will cause."
