Chapter 515: The Announcement of the Abandoned Babies
This draw made Juventus fans very disappointed. With seven rounds left in the league, they were overtaken by Inter Milan - they were leading by five points, were chased down to only one point, and then widened.
to four points, and then were chased down to one point left. After leading by three points again, they were chased down to one point left. Finally, at this time, they were overtaken by Inter Milan!
This is what everyone at Juventus fears the most. When this happens, it begins to put tremendous pressure on Juventus!
With such pressure, Juventus went to an away game to challenge Arsenal - their game was played one day earlier than Inter Milan's game. At the Emirates Stadium, Juventus swallowed the bitter pill and returned to Vieira at the Emirates Stadium.
Unable to save Juventus, the Juventus midfield led by him was suppressed by the Arsenal midfield led by Fabregas. The two goals of Fabregas and Henry allowed Arsenal to beat Juventus at home.
Tus - Such a score does not prove that Juventus will have no chance of advancing, but it also makes Juventus's home game a week later more difficult!
"In the European arena, without the referee's care, Juventus will show its true colors!"
Such words are appearing in more and more people's discussions, which has also increased the pressure on Juventus.
Regarding this point, Dick remained silent. What he wanted to do now was to participate in the Champions League match the next day, but he did not have the energy to pay attention to Juventus - and he knew that he was very good at attracting hatred. At this time, he
If I say anything, it might cause everyone at Juventus to share the same hatred and hatred. In that case, it would not be good...
In this day's game, Inter Milan and AC Milan attacked at the same time. Inter Milan played at home first, and AC Milan went to challenge Lyon first. The quarter-finals were because both Milan teams won the first place in the group.
If one side's game can be postponed, but now there is no time to postpone it, UEFA will naturally have to consider this aspect more properly.
Villarreal has been very low-key since coming to Milan. They are also ambitious. However, Inter Milan's strength makes them have no choice but to keep a low profile. For Villarreal's head coach Pellegrini,
This is also an opportunity to prove yourself.
"We have made history by entering the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Inter Milan is a very good team. Chelsea and Real Madrid have already lost to them. They are one of the strongest teams in Europe. Although they won
The possibility of winning the ball is not very high, but we must also find ways to go further, because every time we take a step forward, we will create history early." Pellegrini said in an interview.
His words seemed very low-key. This low-key made reporters and fans feel that it was normal. After all, the gap between Villarreal and Inter Milan was there. In this case, the only one who dared not be low-key was
Dick a...
"Want to set off a smoke bomb? I'm not that easily fooled."
Dick said this to himself, and then began to lay out the main points of the game.
In this game, Inter Milan was not able to face it with all its main players - captain Zanetti received a yellow card in the last game, which caused him to be suspended in this game - this is a big problem for Zanetti
This is a rare situation. In the last game, he was forced to receive a yellow card because Real Madrid's offensive was too fierce.
This gave Dick a headache. Although Inter Milan now has many players who can play left back, Arbeloa and Chiellini can both play well in this position, but since Dick wants to transform Chiellini
, then he will not be allowed to return to the left-back position. Such swinging back and forth can easily make the players confused, so the only one left to choose is Arbeloa.
But the good thing is that although Arbeloa is not very good now, he is stable enough. In this position, Inter Milan needs a more stable player. Dick changed Zanetti from the right back he is most accustomed to.
For the left back position, what is needed is the stability of Zanetti. In the season before Dick took over, Zanetti almost gave up his assist ability and appeared as a pure defensive player——
But this is not without rewards at all. Inter Milan's purely defensive line of defense has begun to become more stable. Inter Milan's results last season were largely due to their defense beginning to become more stable. Although
There are more goals than in the Cooper era, but the defense in the Cooper era was brought about by sacrificing the offense. Now Dick's Inter Milan has completely released its offensive capabilities while maintaining a solid defense, which is far from enough.
Same thing.
"The core of Villarreal's midfield is Riquelme. His organization and breakthrough are the biggest factors in Villarreal's transformation in these two seasons, but our attention cannot only be on his
On the body. Solin is the heart of Villarreal, and his impact on the left is also the source of Villarreal's offense. Ivan, your task will be very heavy in this game, Solin is here
The impact and forward penetration from the wing require you to control him."
"At the same time, we need to pay attention to their two forwards, Forlan and Jose Mari. These two forwards are quite comprehensive forwards, so that they can cooperate well with Riquelme. Be careful with them.
Running, Villarreal can achieve such results not because they only have one Riquelme, but because they have a group of good players, and we are playing at home first. If we are a little careless,
, we may be passive in both rounds... Of course, with our strength, Villarreal will not pose a real threat to us, but this is only the quarter-finals, if we encounter trouble here
, which has a very big impact on our overall plan.”
Dick's words reminded the players that if Dick said now that "if we don't pay attention, we will be eliminated by Villarreal", then the players would probably disagree. After all, this season, whether in the league or the Champions League,
Compared with Villarreal and Inter Milan, Dick's performance was not on the same level at all, but Dick said that if you don't pay attention, it will affect the entire game plan - in this case, the players will naturally listen more.
"What we need to pay attention to defensively is these four people. Villarreal's offense is mainly initiated by these four people. The others make more contributions in defense... For this point, there is no need
Let me say more, we can always create opportunities by giving full play to our offensive capabilities. Senna should pay attention to the midfielder. He is not eye-catching on the court, but he plays a great role. He is a typical intercepting midfielder and a frontcourt midfielder.
You have to be careful about him when organizing offensive passes, bypass his defense, and directly create pressure on their defense. Do you understand? We can concede goals in this game, but we have to score more goals at home.
Determine a greater advantage! The Love Song Stadium is not an easy stadium to conquer. Although we are not afraid, there is no need to waste too much physical energy...kill them at home!"
After Juventus performed poorly in the Champions League, Dick naturally hopes that his team can perform better and put more pressure on Juventus again. Therefore, in addition to winning this game,
We have to try our best to create more advantages so that we can have a positive impact on the league.
Inter Milan fans continued to have great enthusiasm for this game. More than 60,000 Inter Milan fans poured into the Meazza Stadium. What they wanted to see was a big victory.
In this game, Dick still sent out the usual 442 this season. Except for the absence of captain Zanetti, the other main players all played, including goalkeeper Cesar, defenders Cordoba, Materazzi,
Cannavaro and Arbeloa who replaced Zanetti, midfielders Mascherano, Sneijder, Perrotta and Figo, and forward partners Adriano and Toni.
Villarreal also sent out all its main players, goalkeeper Vieira, defenders Gonzano, Arzo, Benta and Peña, midfielder Senna served as the defensive midfielder, Riquelme advanced, left
The one on the right is Solin, the one on the right is Calleja, and the strike partners are Forlan and Jose Mari.
"The game is about to begin... Villarreal is the dark horse in the Champions League this season. It has entered the quarterfinals for the first time in the Champions League. This is something very difficult to achieve. Dick is very impressed with this team.
I guess he is not too familiar with it. When he left Atletico Madrid, Villarreal was only a newly promoted and mid-table team in La Liga. After several seasons of operation, after the introduction of Riquelme,
After Solin, Forlan and many other outstanding players, their performance in the Champions League this season surprised everyone! It’s just that they faced a behemoth like Inter Milan. We can’t be too demanding on them.
How to bring out their own characteristics and show their abilities when facing Inter Milan seems to be their more realistic goal..."
For the prediction of this game, almost everyone believed that Inter Milan had an absolute advantage. However, to everyone's surprise, Villarreal launched a ferocious attack as soon as the game started.
attack!
These important players of Villarreal are basically abandoned by the wealthy clubs - Riquelme, who came with the aura of Maradona's successor, was abandoned in Barcelona because of his acclimatization, Fran.
, joined Manchester United, but failed to show his ability and was sold. Solin, after traveling to various giants in the European continent, could only end up in such a small team. Jose Mari, who appeared as a young genius, could only finally commit to
Such underdogs... They are all outstanding players, but they are not popular due to various reasons. Then they came to Villarreal one after another. This group of abandoned babies, coupled with the fact that they have always been unknown,
Senna and others formed the current Villarreal team. The more they face strong teams, the better they can perform!
After the kick-off, Villarreal immediately launched an attack, which made Inter Milan's players seem a little unprepared - few teams attack Inter Milan so resolutely from the beginning, and
Facing Villarreal, Inter Milan's players did underestimate their opponent - after a quick pass, Riquelme took the ball in the middle, Mascherano and Sneijder rushed towards him, Riquelme
Kerme did not dribble the ball, but immediately passed the ball to the left. Arbeloa prepared to make a clearance, but Jose Mari intercepted the ball in front of him, and immediately shot a powerful shot. Cesar
Er made the save, and Forlan fell to the ground immediately ahead of Materazzi and Cannavaro to shoot the ball into the goal of Inter Milan!
Less than a minute into the game, Inter Milan fell behind at home!
The abandoned babies used their opening performance to prove to everyone that they were not here just to go through the motions, but to declare their existence!
