There is no doubt about the importance of the wing, and it goes without saying that anyone who watches football knows that it is easier to form a breakthrough and open a gap on the wing than in the center.
And a strong attack in the middle is a very unwise choice.
Even the Dream Team coached by Guardiola is so powerful, they dare not attack the center.
They also pay great attention to wing attack.
Now Lazio chooses to attack through the middle. Why?
When Mourinho saw Lazio playing like this, he was happy at first. Because Lazio did this, it increased the difficulty of their offense and made Inter Milan better defensive.
It's just that Mourinho didn't dare to show it because at the same time he was still a little strange inside.
He didn't understand why he would choose this method with his winning level and ability. This was an obvious mistake.
This ambivalent mentality made Mourinho wonder if there might be any traps hidden in this strong attack in the middle, just waiting for his team to jump.
He observes and observes and analyzes and analyzes and analyzes again.
No matter how hard I looked, I couldn't find any traps.
It's just a normal mid-range attack.
Ten minutes later, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Although I don’t understand why, it’s obvious that Lazio made a wrong decision. Maybe Chang Sheng was confused for a moment?
Mourinho felt that even God was on his side today.
The opposing coach made a huge mistake and his team is now leading by one goal.
If you still can't win the ball...
Then there is no chance of winning!

For ten minutes, Lazio only forced its way through the middle.
But it has no effect.
Commentator Caressa also felt that Lazio's response was unreasonable.
But ten minutes later, when Lazio gradually found the feeling, the situation changed.
Lazio's strong attack on the center is not an ordinary attack on the center.
Generally speaking, the side that chooses to defend will hold its position. In this way, their defense line will be stable and immovable.
The offensive side will also fall into a stagnant state because there is no good chance. Most of the time, the ball is passed on the spot. After player A passes the football to player B, he just stands there, and the football will be passed soon.
It came back after a circle.
Because they faced the opponent's stubborn defense, they had no good solution, and even running seemed redundant.
This kind of turnover is a purposeless turnover. The passing players themselves don't know what to do, they just repeat it mechanically.
But Lazio's approach was different.
They are running, constantly changing positions and passing routes.
Especially when they make a fuss in the middle.
In fact, Lazio's specific method of breaking through the middle is not complicated or advanced.
It's just a series of two-on-one hits against the wall.
Two versus one is a very common combination.
But Lazio's players gave an extraordinary performance.
Two over one is a very purposeful tactical coordination going forward.
In football matches, one-two is widely used in the area in front of the penalty area, mainly for the final breakthrough.
So it's not unusual for Chang Sheng to let his players play one-two here.
But one-two is a tactic that can only be played while running, which adds many variables to the breakthrough in the middle.
When Inter Milan's defenders have established their positions, they do not need to make large-scale runs, and their defense is solid.
Most teams are at a loss when faced with such a defense.
In fact, as long as you let them run and mobilize, various loopholes and gaps will appear in their originally airtight defense line.
This is the attacker's opportunity.
Changsheng's breakthrough in the middle is to use running one-two coordination to mobilize Inter Milan's defense. Once Inter Milan shifts all their defensive focus to the middle, their wings will naturally be empty.
At that time, if there is a sudden diagonal kick and the wide player cuts in, it will be a single shot directly facing the goalkeeper!
Therefore, Chang Sheng did not give up on the wing, but rather hid his true intention well.
Of course, if the gap can be opened by breaking through the middle, Changsheng will not stop his players from doing so.

Inter Milan's centre-back combination of Samuel and Cordoba are the two people who have the deepest experience.
Because most of the time, they are directly facing Lazio's offensive.
They know best how powerful Lazio's midfield attack and one-two combination are.
Now, they feel a lot of pressure.
Lazio has a continuous two-on-one combination, and it is not limited to one or two people.
With the positioning of their players, they can play a two-on-one between any two players.
There are points for passing the ball at the front, back, left and right.
This makes Inter Milan's defense much more difficult.
You might be able to focus on the synergy between Cavani and Cazorla, but what about Gotze?
You focused on Cavani, Cazorla, Gotze, Modric, Motta and Ledesma.
In addition, there are two full-backs, Balzaretti and Belletti. Because they do not need to defend, they can devote all their energy to the offense. And because they are attacking the center, their positions can also be closer to the center.
It's easier to pass the ball together.
Although it is said to be two against one, it is actually not only two against one, but also two against two, two against three, and even two against four!
There is no set shape.
When Lazio is attacking, they can pass the ball however they want. There is no trace of a routine that has been practiced many times. It is more like a random improvisation.
This kind of attack makes it very difficult for Inter Milan's players to defend.
Because Lazio has no fixed method of playing one-two.
They may have made a breakthrough in the middle at first, but soon after passing the ball, it moved to the ribs - Lazio's strong attack in the middle does not mean that it only targets the top area of the penalty arc, but everything except the wing.
place.
The middle and ribs are both included.

"Mario Gotze! He played a one-two against the wall with Cavani, trying to break through, but was knocked down by Cordoba... blocking foul! This position is only 20 meters away from the goal. Lazio
Got a free kick!"
The referee punished him for a foul, but Cordoba didn't even go up to him to argue with him. He did commit a foul. But there was nothing he could do if he didn't commit a foul.
The opponent's football has been passed behind him. If there is no foul and Gotze breaks through, it will be a one-on-one goal against Cesar.
They must be stopped here.
But Gotze was as slippery as a loach, and normal methods couldn't stop him at all.
Cordoba is thirty-two years old after all, and his turning speed is slow and cannot compare to a young man like Gotze.
So I had to foul.
After he returned to his position on the back line, Samuel next to him said to him: "Good luck, if we let him break through, it would be over."
Cordoba shook his head: "For me, good luck is that I didn't get the cards."

Ledesma's free kick did not hit the goal, but it was not far from the goal, just slightly higher.
"It seems that Lazio really has a chance to play like this. They really threatened Inter Milan's goal!"
The commentator Caresa could see that the mid-range attack that always wins is completely different from the ordinary mid-range attack.
His mid-range attack is full of unexpected changes.
In addition, anyone has a good passing skill, so anyone can be a fulcrum, which gives Lazio many possibilities for attacking in the middle, which may be what defenders hate the most.
The Lazio fans in the stands would not look at it with such professional eyes. Anyway, as long as Lazio made an attack that might threaten Inter Milan, they would cheer loudly.
This is not just as simple as venting your emotions.
When their cheers get louder and louder, it means Lazio's offensive is getting stronger and stronger.
This kind of cheering combined with the situation of the game will bring a lot of pressure to the opponent.
It can be said that cheers are a signal.
Lazio's players also saw hope in their continuous breakthroughs.
This makes them more confident.
So they got even more excited!
※※※
In the 66th minute, Lazio launched an offensive, this time another strong attack from the center!
Inter Milan had fewer offensive opportunities in the second half, but that doesn't mean they didn't attack at all.
After all, a one-goal lead is not very safe.
So if there is a good opportunity, they will also try to attack, hoping to expand the lead to two goals.
This way it will be stable.
This attack is indeed a good opportunity.
But in the end Cruz's shot was saved by Handanovic.
Handanovic rolled over after catching the football, stood up from the ground, and without any hesitation, threw the ball directly to start the attack!
Lazio's speed increased instantly.
And even though Inter Milan's players are desperately trying to catch up, how can anyone outrun a football?
Lazio used continuous passes through the midfield, directly facing Inter Milan's defense.
In fact, Inter Milan's defense is quite tight, because most of Inter Milan's players are still in their own half and do not attack. Only Inter Milan's offensive players are chasing after them.
If it were an ordinary team, it would definitely be slowed down by Inter Milan's defense, eventually turning a quick counterattack into a positional battle.
In this way, Inter Milan's defensive purpose is achieved.
So when Lazio launched an attack, they seemed very calm and calm.
They believe that their wall can stop another Lazio offensive!
They stood their ground, prepared, and waited for the big wave to hit them!
They're going to smash this wave into pieces!
The Lazio fans in the stands gave a huge cheer to cheer for their team.
Commentator Caressa had to raise his voice and shouted: "This is another attack by Lazio. Can they break through Inter Milan's defense this time?" (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster.
