"We didn't perform badly in the first half, but what you have to know is that in such a war of attrition, we had a big advantage... we could defeat them even if we ran! We continued like this in the second half, since in this simple and crude way
They are not as good as us in one aspect, so let's continue in this aspect...continue to run in the second half, don't be afraid of running out of energy, Louis, don't worry, you can't run anymore, there are still many people on the bench who can take your place and keep running!"
said Dick, laughing in the dressing room.
Figo shrugged his shoulders: "Boss, at this level... I can still hold on for fifteen minutes."
"Okay, I'll replace you in fifteen minutes. I hope you can score a goal for us within fifteen minutes." Dick nodded.
"I'll try my best," Figo replied.
After saying these two sentences, Dick waved his hand and told everyone to have a good rest and prepare for the second half of the game.
After scoring two goals in the away game, Inter Milan is now in a very good situation. If Inter Milan scores another goal in the second half, AC Milan will have to win by two goals to advance, otherwise it will be eliminated by Inter Milan. Dick does not intend to
Delaying it to overtime or a penalty shootout would consume too much energy. What he wanted was to resolve the battle within ninety minutes.
Ancelotti also guessed this, so during the halftime break, his tactic was to temporarily participate in the defense in the second half, wait until after a period of resistance, and then slowly launch a counterattack, trying to delay the game as much as possible.
Into the rhythm of both sides killing time, as long as one goal is needed, it can enter overtime, and in the overtime, they will continue to kill time with the opponent. When it comes to penalty kicks, AC Milan is better than Inter Milan, although the goalkeepers on both sides
They are all better at saving penalty kicks, but AC Milan seems to have more penalty kickers, and such battles rely more on luck. AC Milan has been unlucky many times this season, so it may not be impossible for them to be able to fight hard in the penalty shootout.
.
It can be said that Ancelotti has calculated everything that can be calculated. Although his strength and condition are at a disadvantage, he can persist until now.
After the start of the second half, Inter Milan launched wave after wave of fierce offensives against AC Milan under the noses of more than 60,000 AC Milan fans. The AC Milan fans were anxious, but there was not much.
method, now if you muster up the courage to attack the opponent, even if you score a goal, it may not be a good thing. It will cause more physical problems for the AC Milan players. You must know that there were signs of this in the last game, Marr
The injuries to Tini and Gattuso were mostly caused by a decline in physical fitness. Before this game, they consumed some physical energy in the league. Compared with Inter Milan, they are really at a disadvantage - the situation is stronger than the person.
!
Berlusconi in the box was expressionless. He was regretting it now. If he had known it, he would have invested more this summer. At least at such a critical moment, problems like this would not arise. The old guys from AC Milan are still very good at fighting.
Yes, if the thickness of the bench can be better and the league can share more responsibility, Inter Milan will not be leading the way in the Champions League semi-finals.
Moratti, who was watching the game in the stands, was elated. Now he firmly believes that Inter Milan can win the Triple Crown, and he is also relieved whether Dick will leave after the end of the season. Such a strong team
Is the team still worried that it can’t find someone to take over? Don’t be ridiculous. It is estimated that after Dick leaves, many head coaches will rush to be the head coach of Inter Milan. The current honor and future development will not be the same.
We are heading towards a fairly benign situation, how can we not make Moratti happy?
Under such a fierce attack, AC Milan began to shrink its defense to resist Inter Milan's fierce attack. Inter Milan relied on three points to continuously launch attacks. Sneijder in the back, Ibrahimovic in the center, and wingers.
With Figo on the road, they were able to send good passes after receiving the ball, allowing the entire Inter Milan offense to run smoothly.
About ten minutes passed quickly, but Dick had no intention of substituting. During this period, Inter Milan had been suppressing the offense. Therefore, although Figo was still active in running, his physical fitness did not decline as quickly as expected.
——He didn’t want Figo to feel anxious.
Such an attitude brings huge rewards.
In the 62nd minute, Figo received the ball from Ibrahimovic on the left. He made a pass back to Sneijder, but quickly pulled the ball with his heel and got rid of Ambrosi.
Nigeria's defense directly broke through the ribs of AC Milan's penalty area!
AC Milan's defense is very tight, but under such circumstances, if one point is broken through, the others will most likely form a chain reaction - just like now.
After Figo broke through, Jankulovski hurriedly came over to fill the position, but Figo raised his foot and passed the ball to Maicon, who came up from the wing to meet him. Maicon received the ball and observed the situation in the penalty area.
He raised his foot and passed the ball forward. Tony took off and collided with Kaladze. The ball hit Tony's head and flew over the head of Dida, who was in a hurry to attack...
Sneijder, who was inserted in the back row, appeared like a ghost at the landing point of the ball. With a single tap of his header against the falling ball, he headed the ball into the mostly empty goal!
Three to two! Inter Milan takes the lead again, and the string that has been maintained is completely broken!
If AC Milan wants to qualify, they can only score three goals in the next game and qualify with a goal difference. Other than that, they have no other way!
"It seems that we can now have a moment of silence for AC Milan... When they were leading Inter Milan 2-1, they were so close to the final. However, in the short period of time before the end of the first half and the beginning of the second half, they were unable to qualify for the final.
They have already left them... To be honest, I am not very optimistic that AC Milan can score three goals in the next half hour. Now AC Milan can probably only fight for dignity..."
Dick began to make substitutions with satisfaction. Perrotta replaced Figo to maintain the running ability and physical fitness of the midfielder. After such a substitution, Ibrahimovic will get a greater range of activities and opportunities to get the ball.
The field will start to participate more in defense.
And Ancelotti also started to make substitutions - and he changed three players in one change. Cafu replaced Gattuso, who had not recovered and had been insisting on playing, to increase the impact on the right, and Gourcuff replaced him.
Ambrosini strengthened the organization and ball control of the midfield, and Gilardino replaced Odo to increase the impact of the striker...
This was AC Milan's all-out effort. In such an attack, they tenaciously regained a point in the 79th minute. Pirlo passed the ball forward, Gilardino headed the ball across, and Inzaghi went straight into the face.
Cesar attacked and hit the far corner, chasing the total score to 5 to 6 - but there was still a gap of two goals before they advanced...
This goal gave AC Milan fans another glimmer of hope. Although there are still two goals left, if they can score another goal, Inter Milan will start to panic, right?
Although we know that this may not become a reality, at this time, people always hope to think on the bright side.
Dick used the second substitution at this time, and Di Natale replaced Tony to increase the speed of the frontcourt counterattack.
After Di Natale came on the field, he showed another role as a super substitute. In just five minutes of playing, he successfully countered offside after receiving a long pass from Sneijder. After controlling the ball on the wing, he cleverly
Passing the ball to the center, Perrotta followed up and pushed towards the near corner of Dida, surpassing the score again!
Four to three! This is also the final score of this game! With the appearance of such a score, Inter Milan completed four consecutive victories against its rivals in the same city this season!
"Four kills! Two in the league and two in the Champions League! Now it seems that it is not a bad thing that AC Milan did not enter the final of the Italian Cup. Otherwise, after losing to Inter Milan in four games in the league and Champions League, in the Italian Cup final
Does AC Milan really still have the fighting spirit to face this opponent who once lost six goals to them? If it goes from four kills to six kills, it will be a disaster for AC Milan. If Inter Milan doesn't play two more games now
The opportunity of the Milan Derby is not a bad thing."
Ancelotti sighed regretfully. He had tried his best, but he still lost to Dick. Dick, who had a huge advantage, actually only did one thing from beginning to end in the two games.
That is to prevent themselves from showing any flaws. It is this that allows Inter Milan to always control the entire situation and makes Ancelotti try his best to bring AC Milan to the Champions League final.
"I have to say that you have also put tremendous pressure on me in these two games." Dick took the initiative to find Ancelotti to shake hands: "In the Italian arena, there are not many coaches who can cause me trouble, but you
It must be one of them. If your boss can give you more support, maybe you can do better." Dick said to Ancelotti with some regret.
"How can you say something that didn't happen?" Ancelotti shook his head. He didn't look too depressed. In fact, his character was like this. He would not complain to the boss, nor would he complain about losing a certain championship.
It is particularly frustrating, so although he seems to have never been the top head coach, he has always had a high status.
"Really want to win the Triple Crown this season? But now you have a good chance. In fact, there are only three games left for you to play..." Ancelotti sighed and said, winning the Triple Crown is all.
It is a goal that every head coach wants to achieve, but Ancelotti did not have such an opportunity before. However, Dick is really moving towards such a goal. If he can achieve such results, then his status will be
It can no longer be shaken.
"Of course, before I leave Serie A, I want to use a Triple Crown as a gift." Dick smiled and winked: "If I can't get it, I'm afraid I have to stay in Italy for a while."
"You want to leave?" Ancelotti was really surprised now.
"It's not determined yet." Dick shrugged: "But if I win the Triple Crown this season, then I won't have anything to pursue in Italy, and I will have to find some fun elsewhere."
Ancelotti was a little speechless, but he never thought about spreading the news. In fact, Dick was not afraid if it spread. It is typical that Mourinho did this kind of thing not once or twice, even if it spread.
, It will not have any impact on the team. All Ancelotti is thinking about at this time is, when Dick announces that he is leaving Inter Milan, how many teams will rush to get him? And in fact, there is capital to let Dick
There are only a few teams left coached by Ke...
After shaking hands with Ancelotti, Dick turned and left. The players who pounced on him were the Inter Milan players. Now they are only three games away from the great Triple Crown!
Two Italian Cup finals and one Champions League final.
