RE-CALL!

Julio Cesar in goal for Inter in Bejing

Holidays interrupted for the Brazilian who will be with the team over the weekend.

Extra holidays in mid August.

Milan - An exception is worth of gold.  On August 6th, Inter will play for the Italian Super Cup against Milan in Beijing without the South Americans but with Julio Cesar in goal.  The decision was made Monday after a late night phone call between the technical director Marco Branca and Gian Piero Gasperini.  It is a good choice considering several factors.  First is the fact that after the injury of Viviano and the blow to the head suffered by Castellazzi against Galatasaray (the former Samp keeper is fine but the delicacy calls for caution), Inter can not take more risks because the game will be played after a 11-hour flight from Italy.  Add to this is that Francesco Bardi could not leave for China because he will be loaned to Gubbio.

Effect South Africa Julio Cesar should join the team over the weekend in Dublin where with his teammates they will fly to Beijing via Paris on Monday.  But the problem of not getting enough rest after Copa America remains.  For the derby against Milan, Inter have decided not to choose the players who were involved in the tournament in Argentina because they don't want to squeeze the South Americans (Cambiasso, Lucio, Maicon, Zanetti and Milito) for the second consecutive year.  Last summer, in fact, the World Cup had led to problems for Maicon and especially Milito.

Holiday shortened So what will happen to the number 1 of the Brazilian national team is a calculated risk.  The keeper will have 10 days less of vacation compared to his fellow South Americans but he will get extra holiday mid August.  But first he must answer the call-up for a friendly on August 10 in Stuttgart against Germany.  The five senior players from Copa America will job the team immediately after their national matches but while Maicon and Lucio have already been included in the list of coach Menezes, the three Argentinians could be free after their football federation, after the sacking of Batista, has canceled a friendly match against Romania.
