Mancini's gambling substitutions did not reverse the situation.
After entering the 75th minute, Gao Shen changed two players in a row, first replacing Hamsik with Vidal, and continued to strengthen the suppression of Inter Milan's midfield and backcourt.
Immediately afterwards, Callejon was replaced by Di Maria, who performed well and gave the team two assists.
The Argentinian winger's physical exertion is too great.
When both players came off the field, they received warm applause from the 60,000 Naples fans in the audience.
Obviously, they are all extremely satisfied with the team's performance tonight.
Leading Inter Milan 4-0, nothing could surprise Naples fans more than this.
Before the game, who could have imagined that Naples could massacre Inter Milan at home?
And Mancini also seems determined to go on this road to the end.
When the game reached the 80th minute, he replaced Cambiaso with Figo.
After the adjustment, Inter Milan adopted tactics similar to three-four-three.
In front are Suazo, Ibrahimovic and Crespo.
In the midfield, Stankovic is on the left, Vieira and Maniche occupy the center, and Figo is on the right.
The defense is made up of Maxwell, Chiwu and Maicon.
Three defenders are actually not uncommon in Serie A. Just like Sampdoria's head coach Mazzarri, he has an unshakable 3-5-2 formation and adopts pressing and pressing tactics.
But there are not many people like Mancini who make such a gamble and make substitutions in such an important and crucial game.
Especially considering that Inter Milan is currently trailing four to zero.
…
"He is really anxious!"
Trapattoni shook his head and seemed disappointed with Mancini's performance in this game.
At this point in the game, it is already impossible for Inter Milan to win.
The biggest suspense now is, how many goals will Inter Milan lose?
In other words, can Inter Milan score a goal?
As the overlord of Serie A, if we encounter such an embarrassing defeat in such a game and fail to score a goal, this will indeed be very embarrassing and also quite damaging to morale.
Not to mention anything else, just Cruyff, the godfather of Barcelona, who was sitting not far away.
How did the Dream Team disintegrate back then?
They lost to Capello's AC Milan 0-4 in the Champions League final, and later lost 0-5 to Real Madrid coached by Valdano in the league. Since then, the Dream Team has completely fallen into history.
In the world of football, there is no such thing as no reason.
The intertwining of chance and necessity is the most unpredictable aspect of football.
Just like the disastrous defeat that Mancini suffered tonight, there was a certain degree of chance, that is, he conceded two goals in a row after the start.
No one expected that Mancini's team would make such a serious mistake in the opening game under Napoli's nearly suffocating pressure. This is very inappropriate.
So what is inevitable?
Before the game, many professionals were not very optimistic about Mancini and his Inter Milan, because their recent state has been very unsatisfactory, while Naples has ushered in its peak state which is getting better and better.
It's not surprising that Inter Milan lost.
In other words, losing is not surprising, but what is surprising is losing so miserably!
"Too much pressure!" Lippi also shook his head and sighed.
After years of consecutive defeats in the European war, coupled with the fact that he was a one-man show in Serie A, Mancini was criticized by the media and fans in Italy, and even the players did not want to see him.
An insider is an expert in civil war, but an outsider is an outsider in foreign war. This is the most embarrassing thing.
The most typical one is the annual Golden Chair Award. Mancini is not even qualified to be a finalist.
A head coach who has won the Serie A championship cannot be nominated for the best of the year. You can imagine how bad the attitude of the Serie A players towards him is, and it can even be said that they are very disapproving.
This is an external factor, but internal to the team.
Whether it was Figo, Vieira or Ibrahimovic, these star players in the locker room challenged Mancini's authority again and again, and even insulted him.
If this had happened to other teams, Mancini would have killed him long ago.
But in Inter Milan, he had no choice but to endure it.
These players were brought in by Moratti with a lot of money, and they were all bought for the purpose of betting on the Champions League. Each one of them is worth a lot of money and has an astonishing annual salary. Who can Mancini move?
Let alone Mancini, even if it is Blanca, who can he touch?
Even if it comes to making trouble with Moratti, Moratti's good-natured character will be more of a comfort.
And this in itself increases the arrogance of the players and weakens the authority of the head coach.
Amid internal and external troubles, the team's underestimation and a wave of injuries, and the centenary celebrations are approaching, many factors have come together. It is conceivable that Mancini is under great pressure at this moment.
How huge.
Lippi himself has been the head coach of Inter Milan, so he knows that this position is really difficult to occupy.
Moratti is a good person, but that does not mean that he is a good head coach of the team he runs.
On the contrary, many times, the situation is worse.
"After tonight, Inter Milan will probably change their coach!" Lippi smiled bitterly.
Everyone nodded.
After encountering such a disastrous defeat, it would be unreasonable not to change the coach.
There has to be someone who takes responsibility and calms the fans' anger, right?
"Would Moratti consider letting him finish the season?" Ulivieri asked.
Lippi and Trapattoni looked at each other and shook their heads.
"There are still twelve rounds left in the league, and now it's just a tie, but Inter Milan's situation is not that bad, because Naples will have to face Roma and Juventus, both of which are also tough battles." Trapattoni analyzed.
road.
"If Inter Milan changes its coach as soon as possible and the team gets out of the slump, I believe there is still a good chance."
What Trapattoni did not say is that if Inter Milan does not change coaches and continues to use Mancini, given the current state and morale of the team, as well as the conflicts between the players and Mancini, it will be difficult to regroup.
.
"Even if Moratti tries to stay, Mancini may leave on his own." Lippi was even more pessimistic.
Everyone around was speechless for a while.
Looking towards the home team's coaching bench in the stadium, the tall figure seemed to have given birth to a pair of devil's wings.
Damn it, a real disaster star.
How many head coaches have been fired by him because of losing games?
It's better not to touch such a guy, and stay away if you encounter him.
…
When the game reached 87 minutes, although Naples' rhythm had slowed down a lot, it was still very fast.
Inter Milan really couldn't keep up with Napoli's fast and whirlwind pace of play, and could only continue to stay in and around the penalty area.
When trying to pass the ball into the penalty area, Qi Wu was the first to clear the ball.
The kick went high, but didn't fly far.
Rakitic quickly rushed forward and headed the ball from the outside of the penalty area to the right side of the penalty area.
Sanchez got the ball, walked into the penalty area, and faced Maxwell directly.
Because Vieira protected at the front of the penalty area, the entire left side of the penalty area became a one-on-one situation between Sanchez and Maxwell.
I saw the Chilean winger continuously shaking left and right in front of Maxwell, constantly changing his fake moves.
He is not tall and his movements are very flexible. Especially his continuous cycling at the end, he directly deceived Maxwell, making him think that he was going to cut in and pass back. As a result, he suddenly moved the ball to the baseline and threw it away.
Inter Milan left back defense.
But Maxwell's defense was not bad either, and he reacted very quickly. When he realized that he had been cheated, he immediately turned around and quickly wrapped his body around Sanchez, trying to block him from dribbling to the outside, forcing him to dribble the ball directly.
Bottom line.
Sanchez had just rushed out of a gap, and when he saw Maxwell approaching, and when he was about to rush out of the baseline, he suddenly poked the ball with his right foot, and he fell out of the court, but the ball happened to pass by Maxwell.
Passed through your crotch.
The ball was very fast, but Cavani was surrounded by Chiwu, Maicon, and Vieira who immediately returned to defense in the penalty area.
Vieira, in particular, took the lead and blocked Sanchez's pass.
Vieira subconsciously stepped out to block the ball without using any force.
The ball immediately changed direction and flew to the right side of the top of the penalty area.
At this time, Rakitic, who had just headed the ball to Sanchez, also saw the football and quickly caught up with him. Without thinking, he met the kick blocked by Vieira and shot with his right foot.
It is very easy for such a shot to become an anti-aircraft gun, but because Vieira did not exert force at the time, the ball speed was not fast. Rakitic saw the right time and suppressed the ball as much as possible when hitting the goal, resulting in this kick
The shot was fast and urgent, passing directly through the gap in the penalty area and hitting the left side of Inter Milan's goal.
Cesar has always been wary of Sanchez on the right and Cavani in the front, but he didn't expect Rakitic to suddenly throw a cold arrow.
As soon as he came to his senses, the Brazilian national goalkeeper turned sideways and flew out, but he secretly cursed in his heart: Mamma Mia!
Damn, why are everyone in Naples staring at my right hand tonight?
Why do these damn bastards always hit my weak spots?
Cesar's side dive was quick, but Rakitic's long shot was faster.
Before the Brazilian goalkeeper could pounce, the shot had already penetrated Inter Milan's goal.
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!"
"Five to zero!!!!"
"Oh my god, this is unbelievable!"
"In the 87th minute, when the game was coming to an end, Rakitic's long shot from outside the penalty area once again penetrated Inter Milan's goal!"
"This position is what we said before the game, the critical position at the front of Inter Milan's penalty area. In recent times, we have lost several goals in a row at this position. Thank you for your monthly queuing and subscribing recommendation tickets."
"Tonight, Rakitic's long shot was of high quality!"
"Inter Milan has been completely defeated now!"
"Five to zero! The leader of Serie A was brutally slaughtered by Napoli at the San Paolo Stadium!"
"Naples was in very good shape tonight, especially offensively. They were very threatening and aggressive, especially the players' high-position press, which hardly gave Inter Milan the slightest chance."
"Inter Milan only had three shots in the game. Who dares to believe it?"
