Mourinho did not play against Lazio away from home.
Although some media wanted him to do this, he insisted on his own opinion. He sent three defensive midfielders in this game and did not let Ibrahimovic start.
This was beyond the expectations of many people, even the victorious ones.
The three defensive midfielders are always victorious, but Ibrahimovic is not allowed to play... The constant victory is really unexpected.
What he knows is that it was when Mourinho coached Inter Milan that Ibrahimovic was officially promoted to a ball dominance. In Mourinho's team, he has many privileges, which help
He scored twenty-five goals in a season and became the league's golden boot.
It also has something to do with his self-aggrandizement in the future and running to Barcelona.
But no matter what, Ibrahimovic is Mourinho's favorite.
Mourinho made him a substitute...
Could it be that the relationship between these two people is not as good as they know?
But Chang Sheng has to admit that Mourinho was right not to let Ibrahimovic play.
When Ibrahimovic comes on the court, he will be restricted by Jose Passarella.
In this way, it means that Inter Milan has consumed an offensive quota in vain.
He was appointed as a center forward, but it didn't work. Then wasn't Inter Milan playing ten against eleven?
So instead of playing Ibrahimovic, who will definitely be stared at and frozen, he played a very ordinary-looking Cruz.
Compared to Ibrahimovic, Cruise has no star quality at all.
But that's exactly what Mourinho needs.

The game lasted twenty-five minutes. Lazio's offensive was very strong, but it was not able to break through Inter Milan's goal.
Commentator Caressa also believed that this was the 25th minute. Although Lazio's offense was as sharp as ever, Inter Milan's defense was obviously better.
"I think Chang has really met his match!"
When he said this, the TV broadcast gave Mourinho a close-up shot.
In the camera, Mourinho is standing on the sidelines, watching everything happening in the stadium with a serious face.
His team was suffering from wave after wave of attacks from Lazio, but he did not appear anxious.
※※※
Chang Sheng turned his head and glanced at Mourinho, who was standing on the sidelines like him.
He thought of Mourinho's games at Real Madrid.
Guardiola's dream team is very powerful, who is the only one who can suppress them?
It's Mourinho.
Even earlier, when there was no constant victory in the world, who could defeat Rijkaard's dream second team?
It's Mourinho.
When he was at Chelsea, Mourinho once said, "Barcelona can never beat us in eleven versus eleven situations."
At Inter Milan, Mourinho's team eliminated the then-thriving Dream Team in the Champions League semi-finals, entered the Champions League final at the Bernabeu, and finally won the cup, achieving the first real success in his career.
Triple Crown glory in the sense of the word.
In Real Madrid, from the beginning of 0:5 to the final end of the Dream Team's monopoly on La Liga, Mourinho played a major role. When Real Madrid played Barcelona in the past, everyone, including the players, always
He seemed to lack confidence. Even though he shouted slogans louder and louder, he could not hide his inner weakness.
It was Mourinho who made Real Madrid get rid of Barcelona phobia, and it was he who made Real Madrid fans feel at ease watching El Clasico.
By saying all this, I just want to explain that the man in front of me has a way to deal with my own tactics similar to those of Barcelona...
Tough defense and super mental quality. Coupled with sharp counterattacks, this is Mourinho's magic weapon.
The most representative one is the game when Mourinho's Inter Milan eliminated Barcelona at the Nou Camp. With one player missing early on, Inter Milan shrank its defense, gave up possession of the ball, and blocked the 30-meter area.
Kong Jiaen, who was outside, gave up everything to Barcelona, and finally defended a 0:1, allowing Barcelona to score only one goal, and finally eliminated Barcelona with a total score of 3:2.
That game was a classic example of parking a bus in front of the goal.
Now, Chang Sheng has seen the prototype of this tactic.
The game in front of me is similar to the game in Chang Sheng's memory.
Of course, what Inter Milan did was not that extreme. They still had offense, which was defensive counterattack.
In this game, Mourinho played defensive counterattack.
Defend firmly and then wait for opportunities to counterattack.
If there is no good opportunity to counterattack, we would rather continue to defend.
In short, everything is based on not conceding the ball.
As long as we don't concede the ball, the game can still be played.
If the ball is lost... it will be difficult.
Although Mourinho's Inter Milan has much better willpower than Mancini's Inter Milan, Lazio is a different opponent.
Being scored first by a team like Lazio will be difficult for any team.
Even Mourinho's Inter Milan is no exception.
Moreover, he has coached this team for less than half a season, and Mourinho does not really believe in his team.
Even so, Inter Milan's tough defensive counterattack still gave Lazio a headache.
They can't press the whole line.
Because they may be counterattacked by Inter Milan.
Without Ibrahimovic, Inter Milan's attack speed was much faster.
Therefore, Lazio did not dare to press forward easily.
But if there is no pressure, it will not be able to put more pressure on Inter Milan.
When Inter Milan defends, it will be difficult to defeat them without exerting enough pressure.
So Lazio started to try to press forward.
As a result, they didn't score, giving Inter Milan a perfect opportunity!
In the 30th minute, when Lazio was attacking, there was a passing error.
When Modric was passing the ball forward, Inter Milan's center back Samuel guessed the intention of the pass, moved ahead and grabbed the ball.
Inter Milan then launched a successful and quick counterattack.
In the end, Maicon completed a world-beating shot from the edge of the penalty area.
The football blasted through the gate guarded by Handanovic!
"Maicon!!! World Wave!!" The commentator Caressa was stunned for a moment, and then shouted.
When Maicon took off, he was still complaining that Maicon's shot was too reckless and that he should have passed the ball to Cruz in the penalty area.
But now, he is cheering for Maicon.
"Beautiful long shot! What a bold gamble! He did it, he succeeded!"
After scoring the goal, the Brazilian opened his arms and ran wildly.
And his teammates also seemed very excited.
It seems that it is a great thing to take the lead at Lazio's home court...
Of course, for them, who have always been at a disadvantage in the confrontation with Lazio, it is indeed very satisfying to be able to lead Lazio in the game.
Especially in the context of the change of head coach and the recovery of league results, this lead seems to have more symbolic significance...
This seems to be...a precursor to the collapse of the old structure.
Does this mean that Inter Milan will completely change their embarrassing situation of being unable to win against the ever-winner Lazio?
This lead excites the Inter Milan players and also excites the Inter Milan fans.
They cheered loudly in the stands, even briefly overwhelming the voices of the Lazio fans.
The ecstatic Inter Milan players and the somewhat dejected Lazio players formed a sharp contrast.
The language of the telecast is also very interesting.
We specially selected some shots of players from both sides in the same frame to present this contrast in front of the audience in the most intuitive way.
So fans watching the game can easily come to the conclusion: now that Inter Milan has the upper hand, Lazio seems to be about to collapse!
This is because Lazio is the public enemy of Italy and can enjoy such treatment.
Otherwise, it is impossible for professional TV broadcasts not to know that except for goals, in other statistics, Lazio has the advantage, and it is a comprehensive advantage.
Judging from these data, it is Lazio, not Inter Milan, who has the upper hand.
But football is such a wonderful thing.
It is impossible to deduce a correct answer from statistics.
It is impossible to say that a team with a high possession rate deserves to win, nor can it be said that a team with few shots deserves to lose.
Football matches are full of chance and coincidence.
These things are part of the charm of football.
Therefore, even if they have the advantage throughout the game, Lazio may lose to Inter Milan at home.
And it's fair. No one can make irresponsible remarks.
This is football.

Chang Sheng slowly squatted down.
He began to think very seriously.
Mourinho's defense presented him with a problem.
Now that they are one goal ahead, they will take their defense to the extreme. Even more extreme.
Maybe he will give birth to Mourinho's bus tactics?
If Mourinho really parks a bus in front of the goal, what will he do?
Chang Sheng frowned, pulled a piece of grass from the grass, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it.
The Dream Team, which was in full swing at the time, was helpless against Inter Milan's defensive tactics. What about you?
Now it seems that trying to get the surprise from other people is no longer possible...
Now, he has to rely on himself.
He knows how to break through dense defense, but how to break through wall defense?
That's really an interesting question.
Chang Sheng's brain is running very fast, like a high-speed hard drive.
He recalled in his mind what he knew about Inter Milan.
As the saying goes, know yourself and the enemy. To win a hundred battles, you must first understand your opponent.
Then look at what weapons you have here...
Inter Milan under Mourinho is a team that is both offensive and defensive.
In fact, Mourinho's team does not play conservatively. The so-called conservative is just a label given to him by the media.
They have the ability to play beautiful offense, as evidenced by Inter Milan's 3:1 home victory over Barcelona in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League semifinals in the 2009-2010 season.
But when they are determined to defend, it will be difficult to break their goal.
And what about our own side? The personal breakthroughs of Gotze and others have been restricted by the opponent's wall defense.
Facing a wall, personal abilities seem a bit insignificant.
Generally speaking, a long shot would be a good idea.
However, Chang Sheng did not use the long-range shooting skill in this game, so the effect of long-range shooting must be discounted.
It can be used, but you can't expect long-range shots to be the decisive weapon to reverse the game.
Chang Sheng thought about it a lot and decided to start with what his team is best at.
What should I do if I can't get through a wall?
Build a ladder and cross over!
How simple! (To be continued. Mobile phone users please go and read.)
