However, no matter how strong the defense is, there will always be loopholes under the opponent's extremely fierce attack - Inter Milan's defense is based on shrinking defense. This approach will certainly give the back line enough manpower, but
But it can also easily make the opponent's attack become more unscrupulous!
Although they persisted tenaciously for 40 minutes, after entering the 43rd minute, Atletico Madrid's top scorer Jardel seized a valuable opportunity.
Vicente's forced breakthrough on the left created a corner kick. Belleron stood at the corner kick point. Jardel was naturally the target of the opponent's focus. However, his height meant that only one person on the Inter Milan defense could mark it.
He is Blanc, the former captain of the French national team. However, in the previous confrontation, although Blanc successfully targeted Jardel, his physical fitness and confrontation ability were rapidly declining.
Precisely because of seeing this, Belleron's corner kick was obviously aimed directly at Jardel!
Jardel and Blanco rushed to the landing point at the same time, but Jardel relied on his own strength to seize the favorable position at the front point, and jumped high to meet the falling ball!
Although Blanc also jumped up, he was unable to stop Jardel from completing the header - the ball pushed out by Jardel quickly flew to the front of the goal. Although Frey made a save.
, but still missed one step before being able to touch the ball!
When the net was shaken violently by the ball hit by Jardel, the Atletico Madrid fans in the stands began to cheer loudly - they had been waiting for this opportunity to cheer for forty-three minutes.
!
Dick on the sidelines also heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he scored before the end of the first half. Otherwise, if such a fierce attack failed to score, it would also be very damaging to morale - Jardel is still very good.
Although he has not scored in two rounds of league games, he found the feeling of scoring goals again in this game!
Such a shooter who can score goals is indeed very important to the entire team.
Atletico Madrid's players were also celebrating crazily. They knew that as long as they took the lead, there wouldn't be much of a problem. Inter Milan would be forced to attack in the second half, and they would be able to get more scoring opportunities.
.
All Atletico Madrid players have overlooked one point. Although it is already forty-three minutes, the first half is not over yet. Inter Milan is not without a chance. Although they were exhausted in defense before, two top players
The forwards did not consume anything, they were also waiting for the opportunity...
Dick ignored the psychological changes of the players. He still underestimated Inter Milan. This was also a kind of disadvantage caused by later memory, because he knew that Inter Milan was very difficult this season, so he subconsciously underestimated it.
They have forgotten that Inter Milan is still a top-notch club, and they still have a few stars in the team who are very dangerous when they break out.
For example, Vieri, and another example...Recoba.
After the game restarted, Inter Milan began to back and forth in the midfield, while Atletico Madrid players began to press in the midfield. They wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to score another goal, so their advantage in the second half
It will become bigger - after finally scoring a goal, they begin to feel that scoring another goal will not be so difficult.
Atletico Madrid players pressed hard, making Inter Milan's passing a bit difficult, which made them press harder. Unknowingly, they left a huge gap in the backcourt...
Baraja's flying tackle almost intercepted Farinos' pass. Just when he felt a little regretful, Seedorf received the ball in a more dangerous place...
Thuram still remained vigilant enough. When he observed that Seedorf could send a beautiful through ball and Recoba had already started to move forward, he knew that he could not directly prevent the completion of this attack.
Lahm decisively directed the back line to move forward to avoid offside. However, at this time, the young Marchena made a mistake, and his press seemed a little slow...
Seedorf's direct pass passed Atletico Madrid's defense, and Recoba stepped in at the right time!
Thuram raised his hand to indicate that Recoba was offside. However, when he saw the linesman who did not raise the flag but followed Recoba running forward and Marchena who was slightly delayed, he knew that this was the case.
It's a little dangerous!
Thuram began to quickly return to defense, but after all, he was a step too slow. Recoba was also quite fast. He quickly received Seedorf's pass and then started to go straight in!
For a forward with excellent skills like Recoba, such a one-on-one move is relatively simple - he did not give Thuram a chance to catch up with him, and Recoba quickly dribbled the ball into the penalty area to face the attacking Morley.
Na, a clever shot, the ball flew over Molina's head, and then flew into Atletico Madrid's goal!
In the stoppage time of the first half, Inter Milan quickly equalized the score through a beautiful counterattack!
The excitement of Atletico Madrid fans only lasted three minutes!
When Recoba started running on the court, the entire Calderon Stadium fell into silence, leaving only the cheers of more than a thousand Inter Milan fans who came from afar - in such a passive situation in the first half
, they still equalized the score, which made all Inter Milan fans extremely happy!
"What the hell!"
Dick waved his hand fiercely, extremely annoyed at this lost ball.
He didn't blame Marchena. After all, if you want to use such a young player, you have to bear such a price. What annoyed him was the timing of conceding the ball - not long after taking the lead, he conceded a goal like this. It was really annoying.
So depressing!
When Atletico Madrid players were preparing to kick off, Dick had already left the coaching bench first and walked into the player tunnel at the lead.
"Before the referee blew the whistle to end the first half, Dick left the field early! It seemed that he was very, very annoyed... This seemed to be a normal thing. After all, the goal Atletico Madrid conceded was too disturbing.
Depressed... Dick is a person who doesn't mind expressing his irritation. I don't know what he will do in the locker room. Will he yell at the players like Ferguson? It's a pity that we can't know the Atletico Madrid locker room.
What kind of situation will it be here..."
In the commentator's ridicule, Atletico Madrid had just kicked off, and the referee blew the whistle to end the first half. Inter Milan's goal originally occurred in stoppage time, and it would be a mistake not to end it immediately.
Things that make people feel weird.
This time, Atletico Madrid players were not too scared to enter the locker room like last time. Instead, they asked Torres to explore the way because they were also very angry about the ball. Even if Dick yelled at them, they felt it was right.
matter……
At the same time, they also have a bit of luck - maybe Dick will not get angry at all like last time, but consider the countermeasures for the second half in advance...
Unfortunately, they guessed wrong.
After entering the locker room, Dick's face was so gloomy that the temperature in the locker room seemed to have dropped several degrees. Seeing Dick's face, the Atletico Madrid players knew that they had guessed wrong. One by one, they
He bravely walked into the locker room and prepared to face the baptism of the storm.
Sure enough, when Torres, the last one to come in, closed the door with his backhand, Dick's roar came to mind in the locker room.
"Damn it! It's so disgusting to concede a goal like this! We attacked for forty-three minutes and finally scored a goal, but because of a moment of negligence, our efforts were completely wiped out by the opponent! I absolutely hate this kind of bastard thing
Absolutely unbearable! Do you understand? Absolutely, absolutely unbearable! Yes, we failed to call the offside, which was Carlos's mistake, but what happened before that? How did we let Seedorf easily in that
Where did he get the ball? And how did he allow him to send such a fatal through ball easily? He just scored a goal! Are you starting to get carried away? You must know that we have only entered the top 16 of the UEFA Cup!
We are still four, five, six, seven fucking steps away from the championship! We have only just ranked first in the La Liga standings, and we haven’t won the championship yet! Are you starting to get proud? Are you starting to look down on your opponents? Is it possible?
Do you think you are already an honorable player? Come on, let’s talk about your proud club results! Is it the top 16 of the UEFA Cup or the 13th in La Liga? What the hell is worth it?
Proud? We look down on Inter Milan? They are one of the three strongest teams in Italy! One of the teams that has won the most UEFA Cups! Our league championship is less than double digits, and the best result in the UEFA Cup is four
What right does a strong team have to look down on others? I said after the winter break that we are not a very strong team, our strength is outstanding, but compared with most of the giants, our
The strength is not strong enough to form a suppressive situation at all! We have to try our best in every game so that we can laugh better after the season ends! You have done well before, especially in the last round of the league.
I maintained a good concentration from the beginning to the end of the game, which made me feel very happy and felt that we could get something this season. But... just as soon as we climbed to the top of the standings, you guys showed up like this
The situation, you guys, makes me very disappointed, very, very disappointed."
Dick's long speech made every Atletico Madrid player look a little ashamed on their faces - they were indeed a bit in a trance. Although they maintained an excellent state and continuous offensive ability when they were not leading, however, in
After taking the lead, it was as if all the tasks had been completed, completely forgetting that the game is not over yet, the first half of the game is not over yet, at least the whistle has not sounded yet!
"Now that you know what's wrong with this, I won't say anything more... Use offense to kill them in the second half! Our offense in the first half was not ineffective, at least their defense has been almost dragged down by us.
Now, as long as we attack, we will be able to achieve very good results, do you understand?"
Dick knew that continuing to scold would only lower the morale of the players, so he stopped in time, and then slowed down his tone and began to explain the tactics: "Their central defender has tried his best to deal with Jardel.
, we need to make more use of the two wings. What we need is containment on the side guarded by Zanetti, and on this side... Belen, Mauro, you must increase the number of attacks in the second half, hit their left, and let
They have more flaws on this side... Their defensive actions are not small. You have to understand that this is our home court, let them foul more! This can also accumulate the advantage in the second round... Combine the two games
