Dick's words at the pre-match press conference once again stunned the reporters. They thought that this 25-year-old young coach was simply crazy. Maybe many coaches had this idea in their hearts, but people like Dick openly declared, "I
"I don't want people to like me but be afraid of me" is simply...
"He is just like a medieval tyrant!" a reporter exclaimed in the media.
Now, Tyrant will start an offensive contest with Zeman, who is best at playing offensive football in Serie A.
If before the start of this game there were still many people wondering whether Dick would suddenly adopt defensive counterattack tactics like the previous game, the starting lineup sent by Dick had already proved that he would be successful in this game.
Play offense during the game.
Tony and Adriano started, midfielder Recoba took the bench, Pandev supported behind the two centers, Perrotta, Zanetti and Stankovic formed the midfield, Zanetti, Ko
Erdoba, Cannavaro and Materazzi formed the defense, Toldo guarded the goal, Dick only rotated one player, and the others were the main players.
Zeman sent out a 433 formation. Now Lecce can play such crazy offensive football. They also have many good players. For example, the right back is Cassetti who later performed well in Rome, and the midfielder has Ledes.
Ma, with Bodinov on the front line, these are players who will perform well in the future.
From the beginning of the game, Inter Milan launched an attack, and Lecce was not to be outdone. It started a crazy confrontation with Inter Milan in the midfield, striving to use its offense to give Inter Milan a blow.
In the second minute, Lecce launched an attack. A cross from the wing was deflected by Materazzi, and midfielder Abruzzese's long shot from the front of the penalty area was scored by Toldo.
Inter Milan quickly launched a counterattack. Perrotta passed the ball directly to Adriano. After receiving the ball, Adriano distributed the ball to the right side. Stankovic's cross was blocked by the opponent's defender and followed up.
Pandev's follow-up shot hit the opponent's defender again and bounced out of the bottom line, resulting in a corner kick.
Three of Inter Milan's four defenders came up and were crowded in the penalty area. This put huge pressure on Lecce's defense - but they still managed to top Stankovic's corner kick, and Perrault
After intercepting the ball from the outside of the penalty area, Tower shot directly from a long distance. The ball refracted to the feet of Zanetti on the other side of the penalty area. Zanetti passed the ball to Pandev who pulled out of the penalty area. After receiving the ball, Pandev quickly turned around and then hit the ball at the edge of the penalty area.
While turning around, he passed a beautiful curve ball. Adriano, who was inserted in the back row, rushed to meet the ball and the ball went directly into the net!
One to zero! In the first four minutes, Inter Milan took the lead in scoring through a strong attack!
This made the Del Mare Stadium quiet. The two sides were attacking each other from the beginning, but before their attack had any effect, Inter Milan used a forced attack to score a goal - this was not a counterattack.
It was not a lucky ball, but a complete suppression - after the corner kick was taken, it was cleared, and the long shot from outside the penalty area was refracted to the feet of Zanetti who was advancing forward. Zanetti immediately passed it directly to Pandev, who was not tall in front of him.
Pandev completed the turning action when receiving the ball, and then raised his foot and sent a curve ball without even looking, which directly passed over the heads of all the players in the middle of the penalty area.
All Adriano has to do is stretch his neck while running, and then let the ball hit his head...
This series of attacks was completed in the face of Lecce's almost full defense. Although Lecce is mainly offensive, the team led by Zeman has some shadows of total attack and total defense.
At that time, they all returned to defend in place, but they were still torn open by Inter Milan's attack!
Three minutes later, Adriano almost scored twice. Pandev again received the ball in the middle and sent a beautiful through pass. Adriano went forward to form a single shot. Unfortunately, after breaking into the penalty area, his push shot
After being touched by the opponent's goalkeeper, the line changed and flew out of the baseline. Stankovic took a corner kick, and Cannavaro headed the ball high among the chaos.
Dick waved his hand. It was a pity to miss this one-on-one move, but Pandev's performance really satisfied him. This Macedonian forward was not very good in all aspects. His ball control, breakthrough, speed, and confrontation could only be regarded as mid-range. However,
His passing ability and final pass ability are quite top-notch. Such a player with obvious advantages and disadvantages will be very good if he can meet a head coach who uses him well. If he doesn't meet him, he will be very good.
It's very cheating - just like under Mourinho, he became the last piece of Inter Milan's Triple Crown, but under Benitez, he didn't play well at all...
The commentators have also begun to notice Pandev's performance. Although Pandev has not played many games now, has few chances to play, and has not scored a goal so far, after coming on as a substitute in the second round, Pandev used an assist to grab the goal for Inter Milan.
Three points, and in this round, he opened the scoring for Inter Milan through an assist. This performance is already quite outstanding for a substitute.
Recoba, who is sitting on the bench, has a rather complicated mood - his condition is actually good this season. In the game against Roma, he scored the first goal with one pass and one shot. However, in this game
Sitting on the bench, he could see more clearly that Pandev's direct threat may not be as good as his, but when he was on the court, Inter Milan's offense seemed to be more smoothly coordinated...
Only now did he understand that what Dick said to him, "Probably starting from the bench," was really not a deliberate threat to him. In this tactic, it was obvious that Pandev was more suitable than him to play the position behind the two forwards. If
When he wants to play, he will appear more in the forward position. However, with Adriano and Toni, as well as Cruz and Martins on the bench, how many opportunities will he have to play?
He is not afraid of being a substitute. In the past, he was a substitute for most of the time at Inter Milan. However, if there are few opportunities for substitute appearances and it will hinder the team's original results... He Recoba, can do this
Stay?
Thinking of this, the Chinese boy felt a little pain in his heart.
However, Recoba's idea did not have any impact on others. Inter Milan was still fighting back and forth with Lecce on the court, and both sides created many offensive opportunities...
In the 12th minute, Belanovic lobbed a shot from outside the penalty area, and the ball was held in the arms of Toldo, who was well positioned.
In the fourteenth minute, Toldo saved Stovini's shot. Inter Milan quickly launched a counterattack. Perrotta passed the ball to Adriano who was advancing. Adriano took a shot from the front of the penalty area and was missed by the opponent's goalkeeper.
save.
In the 16th minute, Bodinov made a powerful long-range shot from 20 meters away from the goal, but Toldo flew to block it.
In the 17th minute, Adriano shot a long shot from 25 meters away from the goal. The Lecce goalkeeper saved the ball. Tony followed up with a follow-up shot, but the opponent's defender used his body to block it.
In the 19th minute, the 20th minute, and the 23rd minute, Toldo made three consecutive saves to keep Inter Milan from losing. After a period of struggle, Inter Milan's pressing in the frontcourt worked wonders!
Perrotta intercepted the opponent's pass, then played a one-on-one with Pandev and then entered the penalty area. On the left side of the penalty area, he looked up and observed the situation in the penalty area. Adriano from behind was asking for the ball.
, Perrotta immediately raised his foot and passed the ball across.
When Lecce's defenders rushed towards Adriano to stop his shot, Toni appeared in the middle and fell to the ground to tackle the ball passed by Perrotta. This shot was extremely sudden.
To the complete surprise of the Lecce defender and goalkeeper, all their attention was on Adriano. When the ball was scooped out by Tony, their goalkeeper was still blocking the back...
Two to zero! Inter Milan expanded its lead in the 31st minute!
The goals of Adriano and Toni helped Inter Milan gain a two-goal lead. However, after only three minutes, the explosion of young forward Bodinov gave Lecce hope again...
Zanetti was competing with two opposing defenders in the backcourt, and the dropped ball was caught by Bodinov. After looking up at the frontcourt, he suddenly shot with his left foot twenty meters away from the goal.
Straight into the blind corner!
Toldo failed to react at all to this shot. Bodinov's long-range shot was a world-famous shot...
Dick shook his head helplessly. In the league, Inter Milan conceded a lot of goals. Although it was because they were not very proficient in transitioning between offense and defense, the opponent became more energetic when they beat Inter Milan. There were always people who shot world waves, which also made him
I feel that Inter Milan is really not very lucky right now...
But even if they are unlucky, Inter Milan must continue to attack.
Shortly after the start of the second half, Bodinov's second goal made the Lecce fans completely crazy. Cassetti made a beautiful pass. Bodinov used his speed to get rid of Materazzi and scored in the penalty area.
The shot scored and Lecce equalized the score after falling behind by two goals!
"Inter Milan is in danger now..." A commentator sighed and said, Lecce is nicknamed Little Pepper. If this team goes crazy, it will be difficult to control them. Now they are two goals behind.
The score was equalized. Now, Inter Milan might really be in big trouble...
However, what surprised everyone was that after scoring two goals in a row, although Lecce was still attacking, their offensive intensity dropped significantly. Not only could they not compete with Inter Milan in the midfield, but they gradually
was at a disadvantage...
In the 67th minute, Inter Milan finally succeeded after a series of strong attacks. Stankovic passed the ball from the wing. Tony beat the opponent's defender to header the ball. Pandev, who followed up in the middle, used a very beautiful challenge in the penalty area.
Scored his first goal at Inter Milan!
Inter Milan takes the lead again!
After Inter Milan took the lead again, Lecce failed to show the momentum of its previous crazy attack. It was not until Zeman replaced three players who were not physically fit that people suddenly realized - it was not that Lecce did not want to attack, but that it was Lecce who did not want to attack.
In the previous sprints and entanglements, their physical energy has been almost exhausted - no wonder they have been passively beaten!
In the first 20 minutes of the game, the two sides almost attacked once and I attacked again. The rhythm of transition between offense and defense was very fast. After Inter Milan took the lead by two goals, Lecce attacked like crazy and frequently, while Inter Milan responded appropriately.
They recycled to save energy, which made them completely lose their ability to compete with Inter Milan in the second half.
Dick also changed three people in a row. Recoba replaced Adriano, Cruz replaced Toni, and Mascherano replaced Zanetti. Inter Milan continued to maintain pressure in the frontcourt.
, the advantage of one goal lead is not enough now.
When super substitute Cruz scored the fourth goal, Dick completely relaxed and started chatting and laughing with Marriner - Inter Milan defeated Lecce 4-2 in an away game and won the eighth round of the league.
