Chapter 301 Young general Li wants to cross the blue and black mountains
Coupled with the unbalanced mentality of other young players, who prematurely linked themselves to Inter Milan, Sporting Lisbon unexpectedly ushered in a rare three-game winless streak!
This included two losses.
Their position as the leader of the Portuguese Super League was once overtaken by Porto.
After a winter break, everything seemed to have changed.
Sporting Lisbon, which was originally expected to win the Portuguese Super League, now seems to have fallen off a cliff.
Don't talk about champions.
Even if they fall out of the top four, fans won't be surprised.
For a time, the media also started to stir up trouble, not giving Sporting Lisbon a chance to breathe.
"Quaresma nightclub female model, the Portuguese is no longer in the game!"
"Viana has constant minor injuries, the players' mentality is no longer calm, and the performance on the court has declined!"
"Drogba's scoring efficiency has never been high and he was nicknamed Reverse Vieri by Italian fans!"
"After Sporting Lisbon lost, a fan insulted the players. Ibrahimovic argued with him and almost got involved!"
"Pepe's irrational revenge was extremely stupid and he received a red card again, which made the team worse."
"Chelsea has confirmed that Terry will be taken back next season. Is the foreigner unable to work hard?"
"Italy's waste Barzagli regains a new life in Portugal? Inter Milan fans: Not as good as the substitute of my youth training team!"
"Cristiano Ronaldo still fails to provide an assist. Is he the team's top scorer or a lone wolf who never passes the ball?"
"The reason for Deng Kai's decline was discovered, and it was actually because he and Hathaway moved in together early! Did the two of them taste the forbidden fruit?"
Whether it is Inter Milan or Bayern, they were both called star Hollywood before.
It means that there are too many big-name players and too many gossips, and the players cannot concentrate on playing football.
But now, this trend has been brought to Sporting Lisbon by Matthaus.
Matthäus: Isn’t it because of Deng Kai? He insisted on going to the Golden Globe Awards Ceremony to increase his presence? Is there a problem now?
The team is about to die.
At the internal meeting of Sporting Lisbon, Triguera started to analyze and explain Inter Milan like a normal person.
In Deng Kai's words: "The reason why young players are called young players is because of their unstable condition. Tell any young person that your next opponent will be Inter Milan and Vieri.
Everyone has to fluctuate."
"You can't control your emotions. Instead of trying to control your emotions, it's better to look forward to this day coming soon."
"If we really climbed over this mountain, the scenery might no longer be the few clouds in front of us."
Triguera followed the script: "This Inter Milan is strong in the front line. In order to allow this front line to give full play, they have accumulated a large number of manpower in the midfield. They hope to establish a midfield advantage through the number of people and convert the ball possession into offensive opportunities as much as possible."
"
"For this reason, after their new coach took office, he transformed the original four-back system into a three-center-back system. And unlike the ordinary three-center backs, two of the center-backs are converted full-backs and have extremely strong offensive attributes."
Triguera dug out photos of Ivan Cordoba and Javier Zanetti.
Two full-backs, one on the left and one on the right, are now playing as centre-backs.
This is evident from the height of Inter Milan's defense.
It would be an exaggeration to say that, except for Laurent Blanc, who was selected into the best team of last year's European Cup, this Inter Milan team currently has no defender.
Full midfield.
It's really strange that such a team can win.
Whenever the opponent dares to attack, this defense line will definitely dare to leak.
It doesn't matter who comes.
…
February 16, Alvalade Stadium.
Sporting Lisbon faces a challenge from Inter Milan at home.
For a time, the entire football atmosphere in Lisbon was aroused by this game.
Inter Milan's lineup is full of stars.
Vieri and Recoba are the two forwards.
Francisco Farinos, Christian Brocchi, Luigi DiBiagio
Clarence Seedorf and Andrea Pirlo are the top five midfielders.
Three central defenders: Cordoba, Blanco and Zanetti.
The goalkeeper is Sebastian Frey.
As for Sporting Lisbon, they still have their old lineup.
Cristiano Ronaldo, Drogba, Quaresma
Viana, Deng Kai
Matthäus, Deschamps
Terry, Fonte, Barzagli
Schmeichel.
Among them, Viana has just returned from injury.
Quaresma has been in poor form recently.
"Oh! It seems that Sporting Lisbon is planning to compete with Inter Milan for the midfield stranglehold."
"They didn't make any special arrangements on the defensive line, which is quite bold. After all, they are facing the best forward lineup in the world!"
At the beginning of the game, Sporting Lisbon showed its spirit of daring to fight and fought hard with Inter Milan.
If you don’t fight, you won’t know. If you fight, you will be shocked.
The Sporting Lisbon players were surprised to find...that they could survive?
It’s unscientific!
This is Inter Milan!
In the seventh minute, Deng Kai directly completed a frontcourt steal, and the opponent he stole was Pirlo, whom he had named before.
Inter Milan has too many people in the midfield. Pirlo's long ball transfer is originally very good, but it is completely useless in this situation.
Moreover, Inter Milan's offense relies too much on Vieri. When all players want to create a threat, they want to pass the football to Vieri. This overly simple style of play is ineffective against players with brains.
In the 12th minute, Seedorf dribbled to create Viana's range.
But his position was too far back. This foul was inconsequential, but it interrupted his wonderful performance.
If Seedorf is positioned further forward, he will pose a great threat this time.
It’s still the same problem, there are too many people in the midfield, and the really talented people can’t use their skills.
And many players who were watching this game also discovered the clues.
Guardiola, who is far away in Spain, keeps shaking his head: "Inter Milan is really wasting money. They have a large group of the world's top players, play second-rate tactics, and let third-rate head coaches and coaching staff guide..."
"Even if I were asked to be the head coach of Inter Milan, wouldn't it be easy to play for Sporting Lisbon?"
"Look what the Sporting Lisbon players are doing? Big circle! They occupy the big circle!"
"The big circle is space. It's the same tactic of playing in the middle, but the midfielder is also bloated. Sporting Lisbon uses the width of the field to separate its players as much as possible so that they can be accommodated without adverse effects."
"Inter Milan does not fight for the big circle. Instead, it is within the small circle in the midfield. It looks like there are many people, but in fact, every ball release point is completely surrounded by the opponent."
"The head coach of Inter Milan must have never played Go! If they keep playing like this, Sporting Lisbon will not be an upset at all. They should have won this game!"
In the fifteenth minute, the first goal of the game came.
Deng Kai passed the ball in a midfield environment full of people.
Drogba made a counter-offside run and easily took the chance.
He had violent physical contact with Blanco, but he did not fall down. Instead, he completed his kick in the fierce confrontation.
This was an earth-shattering kick.
Inter goalkeeper Frei felt like he saw Viola Batistuta.
"GOAL! Unbelievable! It was Sporting Lisbon who scored the first goal!"
"This group of young men actually did it?"
"Inter Milan's superstars don't seem to be in the zone yet. Could it be that they didn't get any rest last night?"
