"Welcome to watch the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals in the 2006-07 season! This game is played at San Siro. The two sides are the home team Inter Milan and the visiting team Valencia! Inter Milan this season
It has created the longest record in the five major leagues in the league, and Valencia's current situation is not particularly good. They have almost no hope of winning the league championship! And Inter Milan has almost no opponents in the league... only
However, Inter Milan took the lead in playing at home in this game, which was a relatively unfavorable situation for them. In this game, Valencia sent all their main players, goalkeeper Canizares, and the defenders were Miguel and Morey on the wings.
Ti, the central defender is the partner of captain Ayala and Albiol. In the midfield, Marchena and Albelda partner as double midfielders. The attacking midfielder on the right is Angulo, and the attacking midfielder on the left is Angulo.
It is the young local midfielder David Silva. The strike partner is the local strike partner of Morientes and Villa. This lineup is already the strongest lineup in Valencia, and Inter Milan sent
It is also a 442 formation, with goalkeeper Cesar, right back Maicon, left back Zanetti, and the center back is the partner of Materazzi and Cordoba. Cannavaro is slightly injured.
Can play. In the midfield, Mascherano, Sneijder and Stankovic form a three-back midfielder, Figo is one person forward, and the strike partners are Ibrahimovic and Toni! This is also the case for Inter Milan
The main lineup of Inter Milan, with the exception of Perrotta sitting on the bench, the other main players are on the bench. Sitting on the bench are Toldo, Chiellini, Arbeloa and Yaya Toure.
, Perrotta, Cruz and Di Natale! It can be seen from the thickness of this bench that Inter Milan is indeed unprecedentedly strong this season. They have no opponents at all in Serie A! Although they are playing first
At home, it is estimated that Inter Milan will also launch an attack from the beginning..."
Amid the shouts of the commentator, the players from both sides entered the field - the commentator's words were not wrong. Inter Milan did attack from the beginning, while Valencia focused on defense, allowing Marchena to appear.
The defensive midfielder position is to strengthen the defense. The attackers are only four frontcourt players. Angulo involves Inter Milan's offensive pressure through running, Silva is responsible for organization and breakthrough tasks, and Morientes is responsible for the top position.
While Inter Milan's defense is disrupted from the front, Villa is always ready to look for opportunities - such a lineup is a standard defensive counterattack lineup.
For a team no matter how good the offense is, it is a problem to break the iron barrel formation, not to mention that Valencia is famous for its strong defense. This kind of strength has already started in the Cooper era. Cooper, Bennett
Ranieri and Ranieri are both defensive-minded coaches. Valencia's defensive lineage has been extended and has formed a tradition. It's not that they won't lose, but it's often difficult to lose because of their
The defense is difficult to break.
For Inter Milan, this is a test, and it is a strict test without being really tested before. In this season in history, Inter Milan was unable to face Valencia because of smooth sailing before.
At that time, despite being in a pretty good situation, he lost the game very depressedly. The lessons learned from the past were there, and Dick couldn't help but be wary.
Even if Dick is arrogant, he is only strategically arrogant. In terms of specific tactics, he has never underestimated any opponent. Sixteen consecutive victories cannot be achieved by just sending a few people on the field. Only targeted tactical arrangements can achieve it.
This is one of the reasons why he has become the top head coach in the world to this day.
Valencia's defense is indeed very good. Portuguese defender Miguel and Italian defender Moretti are both better defensive players. Although Albiol did not perform well in Real Madrid later, it was because of Real Madrid's tactics——
He is a player with excellent frontal defensive ability, but his turn is a bit slow. Such a player can perform very well in defensive tactics, but is somewhat inadequate in open tactics, and Valencia uses defensive tactics -
- These three defenders are not top defenders, but they all have excellent defensive abilities. Coupled with the experienced Ayala's organization, their defense line is quite stable.
Coupled with the defensive complements of Alberda and Marchena in front of them, it is very difficult to break this formation. This is also a test for Inter Milan's offensive system.
After the game started, Inter Milan was not in a hurry to attack. Facing Valencia who put up a defensive posture, they attacked patiently.
"Inter Milan should be confident. After Dick took over, they were undefeated in the knockout stages of European competitions! And in the history of Inter Milan, they have never lost at home against a La Liga team, even if they were
Real Madrid also lost 1-3 at San Siro that year. Regardless of strength or condition, they are above Valencia, and we can look forward to seeing a victory."
Through passing the ball back and forth, Inter Milan quickly created an opportunity. After Ibrahimovic got the ball, faced with the opponent's entanglement, he quickly passed the ball back. After Figo received the ball, he distributed it to the left, and Saguaro who assisted
Nettie forcibly broke through Miguel's defense and then made a cross. Tony, who inserted in the middle, attracted the attention of the two defenders of the opponent, but the ball flew over their heads. Stankovic, who inserted in the back row, met the fall.
The ball comes down and hits the goal directly!
In the sighs of the Inter Milan fans, Stankovic's header missed the near post. Stankovic's header was slightly tilted.
Dick clapped his hands and sat back. Zanetti's breakthrough was beautiful, but the placement of the cross was still a little off. Otherwise, this header would have been more threatening - but don't worry, the game has just begun.
At first, Inter Milan had plenty of opportunities, as long as they could seize such opportunities...
However, Valencia's defense is indeed relatively strong. After the attack in the first three minutes, Valencia did not allow Inter Milan to find another chance to shoot in the tenth minute - Sneijder inserted in on the left
After receiving the ball from Ibrahimovic, Lu passed the ball diagonally into the penalty area. Tony flew ahead of the opponent's two central defenders and shot the ball. The ball missed the near post and flew out of the baseline.
In the 11th minute, Sneijder's shot from the front of the penalty area was blocked by Ayala on the goal line. Albiol's big foot made a clearance and flew to the midfield. Mascherano grabbed the ball in front of Silva.
The ball was intercepted and then handed to Stankovic. Stankovic forced a breakthrough along the right and then made a pass!
The ball drew a curve and flew straight to the back point. Ibrahimovic stepped in from the back row and faced the falling ball and directly swung his head towards the goal!
There was a "ding" sound, and the ball hit the inside of the goal post hard, and then bounced into the penalty area. Tony followed up and planned to take a follow-up shot, but Ayala, who was back on defense in time, cleared the ball with his big foot!
"What a risk! Inter Milan's offense was so fierce. They created three or four good opportunities in just ten minutes! If it weren't for luck, they would have scored long ago. Although Valencia's defense is excellent,
But it seems that it can't stop Inter Milan's attack... If Inter Milan scores the first goal, then Valencia will be in some danger..."
Flores clenched his fists on the sidelines. He did not expect Inter Milan's offense to be so powerful. Even though Valencia adopted defensive tactics from the beginning, they still created so many opportunities——
These are enough opportunities to score goals! If this continues, let alone trying to win in the away game, I am afraid that even losing in the away game will not be possible...
However, the game has only passed ten minutes now. If you adjust now, it will make the players easily confused. It is Valencia's luck that they did not concede a ball before. Inter Milan may relax their next attack. After all, no team can
The pressure to maintain high speed all the time...
Sure enough, after a few minutes, Inter Milan's offense began to gradually slow down. The next two shots were both long-range shots from outside the penalty area. Ibrahimovic and Zanetti fired from outside the penalty area and were shot by Canisa.
Reis stopped them one by one, and Valencia's offense began to gradually pick up.
Villa and Silva each had a shot that threatened Inter Milan's door, but Inter Milan protected the penalty area very tightly. Both shots came from outside the penalty area, and Silva's shot went wide.
After reaching the bottom line, Villa's shot was saved by Cesar. Morientes was unable to create any opportunities under Materazzi's defense and could only keep fighting with Materazzi in the penalty area.
Fight together...
After a period of adjustment, Inter Milan once again launched a fierce attack after the 25th minute of the game! Now they have two players in the frontcourt who can take the ball, whether it is Ibrahimovic or Figo who takes the ball, the others
All the players will run back and forth to create opportunities, with Sneijder behind him constantly sending passes to the frontcourt. This is the core of Inter Milan's offense.
Figo intercepted the ball in the frontcourt and cut in but was brought down by Ayala. Ibrahimovic took a direct free kick and hit the goal.
Maicon broke through and created a corner kick. Figo took the corner kick. Materazzi's header was saved by Canizares.
Figo once again took the ball on the wing and was knocked down by Albelda. Albelda received a yellow card. This yellow card made him miss the next round of the game. Dick nodded slightly - that's the advantage.
Accumulated little by little.
Figo stood in front of the ball, while Inter Milan's players rushed into the penalty area one by one, ready to grab points at any time.
Figo took a deep breath. This season he has played fewer games than last season. This is because his physical fitness has begun to decline, but at this time, he is in good condition.
He touched the ball with his right foot and exerted force. The ball drew a beautiful arc in the air and flew straight to the front point!
Ibrahimovic rushed to the front point and used his body to hold up Albiol who was defending him. Although Albiol desperately defended Ibrahimovic, Ibrahimovic still touched the ball at the first time and used a merging ball.
An irregular shot, his ankle hooked the ball directly to the door!
Canizares made a wonderful save and blocked the ball with one palm!
When the Inter Milan fans began to sigh, a figure appeared in front of the rolling ball and volleyed directly towards the ball!
The ball flew into the Valencia gate without any suspense! It was Sneijder who scored the goal! Under the cover of so many big men in the penalty area, the short Sneijder appeared accurately at the landing point of the ball.
The ball went directly into Valencia's goal!
The cheers of Inter Milan fans suddenly rang out in the stands. After waiting for half an hour, Inter Milan's offense finally tore open Valencia's defense! Such a goal may bring victory to Inter Milan
!
"The goal is in! Wesley Sneijder! Beautiful goal! Inter Milan takes the lead! Now Valencia is in trouble! Their defense was not able to stop Inter Milan's attack. Next they have to
