Chapter four hundred and ninety-first two penalties
The decision made by Ancelotti is obviously a more stable decision based on the long-term, and the game has just begun. Even if he is passively beaten, he may not lose the ball if he is focused, and in the next step
They will be in a fairer state. Even if they lose the ball, it may not be the end. If they lose the ball in the first half, there is always a chance to get it back. It is better than forcing each other to exchange physical energy with the opponent now, and finally becoming exhausted.
It's much better to be chased and beaten by Inter Milan.
Seeing that Ancelotti did not make any moves, Dick nodded slightly. This response was obviously the most reasonable approach. It seemed that this game would be very troublesome in the future.
However, in a game of the Milan Derby level, it will not be easy for Dick to win. It is normal for the opponent to make such a correct judgment - it doesn't matter, Dick has already made arrangements for the next game.
Ready.
On the field, Inter Milan's players began to continue attacking, while AC Milan slightly shrank its formation under the command of Ancelotti, hoping to overcome this period of time.
Seeing the opponent's recovery, Inter Milan's players naturally had no reason to hold back. Although they were also wary of the opponent's Kaka and Shevchenko's counterattack, in the pre-match arrangement, Dick had also arranged for manpower - Cana
Varro follows Shevchenko, Materazzi fills in, Kaká is handed over to Mascherano in the middle, and Cordoba and Zanetti are in charge when going to the wing.
The players began to devote themselves to the attack - this is how Inter Milan's offensive tactics have always been played, and it will not have any impact.
In the fourteenth minute, Adriano took the ball from the right and forced a cut inside to get rid of Kaladze's defense. Then he shot low before Nesta came up to cover the position. The ball quickly flew to the far corner.
Dida made a timely judgment and blocked the ball with one hand while falling to the ground. Cafu immediately made a big kick to make a clearance.
The top ball was intercepted by Mascherano in front of Kaka, and then handed to Sneijder. Sneijder planned to send the overhead ball, but Stam intercepted it with a header. Pirlo
After receiving the ball, he quickly launched a counterattack. Kaká, who was on the sidelines, started dribbling the ball from the left and forced a breakthrough. Cordoba quickly made up the position. The two struggled together to move forward. Seeing that they could not intercept Kaká's dribbling, in
When Kaka was about to enter the 30-meter area from the wing, Cordoba knocked down Kaka decisively. The referee's whistle sounded, and then Cordoba was shown a yellow card. Cordoba
Shrugging his shoulders, he stepped back.
"Great job!" Dick clapped his hands and shouted outside the court. Cordoba's foul was very timely. It would be difficult if Kaká was allowed to go deeper. This defensive method was also used to deal with Kaká.
The best weapon for counterattacks. Inter Milan currently has no shortage of players with speed and confrontation in the backcourt. There is no problem with Kaka taking turns to defend after taking the ball. The key is that every time such an attack is stifled, it will reduce the opponent's counterattack threat.
, thus making the frontcourt offensive players more worry-free.
When the offense is free of worries, the offense will become more threatening, which in turn will reduce the pressure on the defense - this is a virtuous cycle, and Dick wants this kind of virtuous cycle.
Pirlo came up to take the free kick. His free kick was passed diagonally into the penalty area. Stam grabbed the first landing point. However, Materazzi's close pressing allowed him to hit the bottom of the ball and the ball flew into the air.
After a certain distance, it was knocked down by gravity. Cesar took off and picked up the ball in his arms.
Inter Milan quickly launched a counterattack. As soon as Cesar landed, he kicked the ball into the frontcourt. The two forwards of Inter Milan, who had not defended just now, rushed to the spot where the ball landed. Tony jumped up and hit Nesta.
He passed the ball to Adriano with his head, and Adriano started dribbling the ball under the pressure of fellow veteran Cafu - he had an absolute advantage physically, and Cafu tried very hard to delay
The results of his progress were not very great.
However, the efforts of the old Brazilian captain still played a certain role. Soon Gattuso returned to the defense. He began to pester Adriano in the same way. With the addition of this defensive midfielder with excellent confrontation ability, Adriano
It was a bit difficult for Nuo to move forward. He made an emergency stop and passed the ball to Figo who came in to meet. Figo raised his foot when Pirlo was about to make up the position and sent the ball to Toni on the edge of the penalty area.
Tony stopped the ball for a moment, and then suddenly took a shot before Kaladze, who was back on defense, came up to press!
Tony didn't have much long-range shooting ability last season, but this season he is in amazingly good condition and can score goals from all positions in the penalty area. This shot was very tricky, and the ball flew directly to the ground to the near corner.
Dida made a mistake in his judgment at the beginning, but he quickly stabilized his center of gravity and raised his leg to block the ball from the baseline!
Inter Milan fans sighed in the stands, but they soon continued to encourage the Inter Milan players with applause, hoping that the next corner kick would result in a goal...
However, AC Milan's defense was still very tight. Although Toni and Materazzi grabbed the spot twice in a row, they were unable to find a chance to shoot under the opponent's defense. In the end, Materazzi's ball was passed by.
Nesta kicked the ball out first!
AC Milan planned to launch a counterattack, but Cannavaro used a beautiful forward defense to rush the ball back to AC Milan's half before Shevchenko could catch the ball. Sneijder caught the ball and turned around.
Before the rushing Gilardino came up to press him, he raised his foot and sent a sharp pass!
Adriano and Nesta rushed towards the spot where the ball landed at the same time. The two of them were constantly colliding with each other as they ran. At this moment, Nesta suddenly felt that his body went soft and he leaned forward involuntarily.
The raised arm just hit the ball...
The referee's whistle sounded! Nesta's handball was in the penalty area, and Inter Milan won a penalty!
The Inter Milan fans in the stands shouted wildly. Getting a penalty kick at this time will obviously tilt the balance of victory towards Inter Milan!
Nesta stood there helplessly, still not fully recovered from the cold, and his body became weak just now. Although it was an unintentional handball, this handball obviously had a huge impact on Inter Milan's offense. He was awarded a penalty kick and was also
It's not an injustice.
Although the AC Milan players are constantly complaining, it is impossible not to give a penalty for such an obvious handball. In the previous physical confrontation, Adriano did not make any foul moves. If Nesta had not caught a cold,
If it is not completely recovered, it is impossible to lose balance. This penalty kick is actually the result of a series of advantages accumulated by Inter Milan!
After the referee's whistle blew, Adriano made it in one fell swoop, pumping the ball into the lower right corner. Although Dida judged the right direction, he is also a goalkeeper who is good at saving penalty kicks, but faced with such a speed exceeding
After a shot that traveled a hundred kilometers, he still could only make a symbolic save!
One to zero, Inter Milan took the lead in the 23rd minute thanks to Adriano's penalty kick!
Dick nodded slightly, taking the lead now, and Inter Milan will have an even greater advantage in the next game.
His calm performance made the Inter Milan fans a little strange - we are ahead in the derby! This has not happened for a long time, why doesn't Dick celebrate?
But they soon realized it - it turned out that this was not the time to celebrate. Dick wanted to celebrate his victory after actually winning his first Milan derby after coaching Inter Milan.
Bar!
Thinking of this, Inter Milan fans began to sigh - what a dedicated head coach, such a head coach will definitely be able to make us reach the top again!
However, Dick really didn’t feel like there was anything to be excited about celebrating at this time. The derby had just begun. If he celebrated too enthusiastically at this time, he would not be able to celebrate with passion after he actually won the game...
The players of Inter Milan returned to their own half after the celebration, while AC Milan launched the attack silently - they were suppressed by Inter Milan before, and in the previous suppression, Inter Milan actually
It also consumed a lot of physical energy, so there is nothing to worry about when launching a counterattack at this time.
Sure enough, after the game restarted, AC Milan's offense began to show off. In fact, they also have many good offensive players. Gilardino performed well after joining AC Milan this season and was almost able to suppress Inzaghi.
The partnership with Shevchenko is also quite good. With Kaka's impact behind him, Seedorf's support, Pirlo's dispatch, and the two wings Cafu and Kaladze are also constantly attacking forward, they can also provide Inter Milan with
Brings huge defensive pressure.
Inter Milan started to delay the opponent's attack from the midfield, and at the same time did not give the opponent room to rush forward. Kaká's only role in this situation was to take the ball and shoot long distance, and Shevchenko was also more
Many of them need to respond in the penalty area. The two most threatening attackers cannot have space to move, and the pressure on Inter Milan's defense is naturally reduced a lot.
Shevchenko's threatening wing breakthrough was intercepted by Zanetti. Inter Milan launched a counterattack and hit the AC Milan gate. Stankovic's long shot was blocked by Nesta.
At the bottom line, Figo took a corner kick, Cordoba nodded and hit the goal, but Gattuso headed the ball to clear the ball.
Seeing that Inter Milan defended well and continued to use counterattacks to delay the opponent's attack, Dick also sat down. If nothing else, there should be no problem...
However, when the game reached the 37th minute, a penalty changed the situation on the field again.
Shevchenko took the ball with his back and was brought down by Cannavaro from behind. AC Milan won a free kick 22 meters away from the goal. Pirlo came up to take the penalty. The ball hit the wall and bounced out.
At this time, the referee's whistle sounded again!
Pirlo's free kick was headed by Mascherano, and it happened to hit Stankovic's raised hand. The referee also awarded a penalty kick!
There were overwhelming boos in the stands, and Stankovic kept complaining to the referee, but also failed to change the referee's decision.
Shevchenko came up to take the penalty kick, and he also calmly scored the ball into the lower right corner. Although Cesar's judgment was correct, it was still a little short!
Two penalty kicks brought both sides back to the same starting line. It is obvious that in the first half of the game, both sides performed quite well. They controlled their opponents well on the defensive end, but they were given away due to handballs.
The opponent was given a penalty kick, and in the second half, both sides still had to fight.
A few minutes later, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half, and the game was tied one to one and it was time to enter the halftime break.
