When the final whistle sounded, Wenger stood up from the coaching bench with an expressionless face - after Inter Milan took the lead for the second time, despite Arsenal launching a crazy attack, they were still surrounded by a tight defense.
Inter Milan held on tenaciously until the end!
Defeating their opponents 2-1 away from home was a very important victory for Inter Milan, but for Arsenal, they lost 2-1 at home to their opponents. In the second round away from home, their hopes of promotion will change.
It’s very slim!
And this is also a huge blow to Wenger. This season he gave up the league to a large extent in order to perform better in the Champions League. Now it seems that despite the historic killing
They have entered the semi-finals of the Champions League, but in front of Inter Milan, they still have a lot of shortcomings...
Arsenal scored a goal with a free kick, while Inter Milan's two forward partners each scored a goal in the game. This pair, which can be called the most efficient partnership, is a key factor in Inter Milan's progress. There seems to be nothing in the whole of Europe.
The club can have such a top two forward combination like Inter Milan!
So far, the two of them have scored more than 60 goals in various competitions. Both of them have scored 30 individual goals this season. It is very difficult for even a wealthy club to have such a shooter.
It’s an amazing thing, but Inter Milan has two! What’s more important is that the two people have a tacit understanding of division of labor and cooperation. Especially this season, Tony scored more goals but did more dirty work. Adria
Nuo gave up some opportunities to score goals, but he was often more conspicuous on the court - each got what he needed. The result was that there was no conflict between the two people, and their cooperation on the court was even better!
Coupled with the support of the midfield and the stability of the defense, everything about Inter Milan has reached perfection this season, and they have begun to make strides towards their goals!
"Inter Milan achieved a strong victory on the road. This victory laid a solid foundation for them to enter the Champions League final. In the home game a week later, as long as they do not lose to Arsenal by more than two goals or are defeated by
Defeat Arsenal with more than three goals, then they can enter the final! After the game, Arsenal's head coach Wenger said that they still have hope, and Arsenal will try their best in the second round. And Inter Milan's
Head coach Dick believes that the semi-finals are not over yet, and they will also give all their strength at their home court. As for the league, Dick believes that four points is enough for the team to qualify, and he will continue to use it in the next round of the league.
Coming off the bench."
"Even if we lose again in this league, we will still be one point ahead, but I doubt whether Juventus still has the strength to win this game now."
Dick seemed very relaxed after leading his team back to China. In fact, he should also be relaxed. The last four rounds were played once a week, without much pressure, and the strength of these four opponents was not very good.
Inter Milan scored 12 points against them in the first round - and Inter Milan only needs to get eight points in the next four rounds to secure the championship, because their league goal difference is better than Juventus.
There are thirty-six more, and it is unlikely that Juventus can catch up with such an exaggerated goal difference in the four rounds...
Dick did not break his promise. After two days of rest, in the thirty-fifth round of the league at the weekend, Inter Milan played a pure substitute lineup, goalkeeper Toldo, defender Arbeloa, Chiellini, Antoine
Dreoli and Maggio, midfielders Zanetti, Sneijder, Perrotta and Chigarini, and the strike partners are Cruz and Di Natale, except for Sneijder and Perreault who did not play in midweek
Outside of the tower, no other main force appeared.
However, facing Reggina, who had successfully been relegated and had no intention of playing, Inter Milan still completed a massacre at home. Cruz scored twice, Di Natale and Perrotta also scored one goal each, plus the opponent
The defender's own goal helped Inter Milan sweep Reggina 5-0 at home and continue to lead the standings!
Juventus, on the other hand, continued to languish. They tied with Lazio one to one at home, were six points ahead of Inter Milan, and were tied with AC Milan in points. For Juventus, the previous
This month has indeed been a nightmare...
There is an old saying in China that it is impossible to achieve great results, but this sentence does not seem to apply to Juventus - because they began to encounter trouble again in the next period of time.
When this round of the league ended, Gazzetta dello Sport suddenly published a piece of news that shocked the entire Italian football world - this news described in detail Juventus general manager Moggi and Serie A referee designated referee Pai Re
The content of the call between Paireto and Paireto in 2004 was extremely detailed, allowing everyone to know how Moggi arranged the referees he wanted through Paireto. Among the referees in question were DeSantis and
Paparesta had a "wonderful" performance in the Italian Derby...
"It seems that what I said before is not without purpose. It is obvious that Mogui can easily arrange the referees he wants to see in some games. Through referees, he can cause a lot of trouble for Juventus' competitors.
Then it will create huge convenience for Juventus. But my team is striving to win the league championship for two consecutive years under such circumstances... Inter Milan has not won the league championship this season? It is only a matter of time.
, as long as we win one more game, we will be the league champion. I don’t think anyone can stop us. And to be honest, Juventus is in big trouble now, and they will definitely be punished. As for what they will be punished for
, then I have nothing to do with it, all I’m thinking about now is the next Champions League semi-finals.”
After the Calciopoli incident broke out, when the entire Italian football world began to discuss the matter, Dick said very little. After expressing his opinions, he began to prepare for the Champions League semi-finals. He was shockingly calm.
This situation surprised everyone, because since Dick entered Serie A, he has had conflicts with Juventus not once or twice. He has ridiculed Moggi, Capello, and Juventus.
Players, now Juventus is in big trouble. With his character, shouldn't he be in trouble...
Everyone felt that Dick must be holding back to cause some harm, but Dick really didn't mean to add insult to injury, because he knew that the punishment Juventus would receive next would definitely be very severe, even though judging from what they had done,
It wouldn't be too serious to be directly demoted to the amateur league or to be disbanded. However, in a European country like Italy where it is a habit to exploit loopholes due to favors, being demoted to Serie B is already a very serious punishment. If you add insult to injury, you will not be beaten to death.
Juventus, why bother stepping on it yourself? Dick is not the kind of person who can't hold back his anger when he sees cowards.
When Juventus was arrogant before, he could confront the opponent without fear. When Juventus became a lost dog, he didn't bother to attack Juventus, just like when he attacked Barcelona, Barcelona was the worst.
At its peak, when Barcelona began to decline, he did not attack Barcelona too much.
What Dick didn't know was that his performance had greatly improved his image. In any case, attacking a strong behemoth and not continuing to attack when the opponent is weak, in the eyes of Europeans, this is
A very knightly approach, which made the aggression he showed before become more humane.
"Actually, I'm not a knight... I just don't do anything useless." Dick said to Charlotte in private.
In addition to not doing things that are not beneficial, Dick mainly has no time to care about the nonsense in Italian football. Italian football has been suffering for a long time. Without major reforms from top to bottom and respect for the rules, Italy will
Football can only survive like that. They can't attract investment or make blood. When the entire Italian economy is in recession, Serie A will naturally weaken. However, this may not be a bad thing for Italy. If there is no money, go everywhere.
After poaching players, if more attention can be paid to youth training and training of some good players, the situation of the Italian national team's suspension will be greatly improved.
Now Dick knows why Mourinho left Inter Milan after two years of coaching. Not only because he had won the Champions League, but because he was disgusted with the atmosphere in Serie A. The atmosphere in the Premier League and La Liga
It is indeed difficult for a coach who comes from a relatively healthy environment to endure it in Italy. Even Dick himself would have decided to win the Champions League this season if he had not known that the environment in Serie A would be relatively better next season.
After that, he walked away. Although Moratti didn't give him any instructions, the entire Serie A environment did make working very unpleasant.
April 26, Meazza Stadium.
Arsenal, who were fighting against the odds, launched a crazy attack from the beginning of the game. However, Inter Milan did not have stage fright. They also used offense to confront Arsenal, but they did not fully attack. In other words, Dick was very weak at home.
Naturally, defensive counterattack tactics were adopted. The number of defenders in the backcourt was always kept at about three or four. When attacking, they relied more on personal ability. Under such back-and-forth impact, although Henry's goal was once
Helped Arsenal to equalize the total score, and saw hope of victory. However, shortly after the start of the second half, Toni headed the ball, and Perrotta, who was inserted from the wing, broke into the penalty area and scored, helping Inter Milan equalize the score.
It also allowed Inter Milan to once again take the lead in the total score.
Although this goal did not have any impact on Arsenal's morale, because they had to score another goal to drag the game into overtime, but in the next game, they still had nothing to do with Inter Milan's defense.
, On the contrary, Di Natale, who came on as a substitute, completely extinguished Arsenal's hopes of advancement. After receiving Figo's free kick, he cleverly poked in the penalty area to help Inter Milan score the second goal. This
The goal became the last straw for Arsenal!
Two to one, Inter Milan advances to the final with its head held high!
Although it is big news that Inter Milan has entered the Champions League final again after forty years, with the whole of Italy discussing the Calciopoli, this news seems to be a bit unpopular...
"It doesn't matter, after we win the Champions League, the whole of Italy will talk about us." Dick said to his players.
