“In the Milan derby, Inter Milan had the last laugh. They defeated their city rival AC Milan with a score of 7 to 5 in two rounds. Such many goals rarely appear in the Champions League semi-finals. Inter Milan had two consecutive games.
Enter the Champions League final in 2018! Whether they can become the first team to defend the Champions League title after the restructuring of the Champions League depends on their performance in the final... Now everyone's eyes are on the next day's game.
Let's look forward to it. Will the team that will join Inter Milan in the Champions League be Manchester United or Liverpool?"
One day later, the suspense was revealed. After losing to Manchester United 0-1 away from home in the first round, Liverpool returned to home and defeated their opponent 1-0. Then in the penalty shootout, relying on Reina's outstanding performance, they finally defeated their rivals with a penalty kick.
Manchester United reached the Champions League final for the second time in three years!
The final match will be Inter Milan vs. Liverpool. The venue of the game is the Olympic Stadium in Athens. The time of the game is Thursday, May 31st.
Before that, Inter Milan still has to play four rounds of league games and two cup games, which is not an easy task.
It's easy to say that it's easy. After all, these four rounds of league games don't mean much to Inter Milan. Having won the championship six rounds in advance, they can let the substitute players show their abilities. The really serious thing is the two Italian games.
Cup competition, Inter Milan's league points have now reached 96 points. Even if they encounter four draws in the next four games, they can steadily increase their points this season to three digits, and their goals have also exceeded
Passing the 100-goal mark, scoring more than 100 goals in the league for three consecutive years, Inter Milan relied on offense to set an unprecedented record.
After celebrating their entry into the Champions League final, a somewhat tired Inter Milan ended their winning streak in the next round of the league. They drew one to one with Atlanta in the away game and were unable to continue their unbeaten record. For this
As a result, many people breathed a sigh of relief. They were worried that if Inter Milan continued their winning streak, they would be able to extend their winning streak to 31 games before the end of this season - this would be too embarrassing for everyone...
Dick didn't care much about this. He had already set a new record. It didn't matter if he had one more game or one less game. He had to leave it to future generations. What troubled him was that after the battle with AC Milan just now,
Next week, we will meet Roma again - Roma is not AC Milan, they have not been defeated by Inter Milan yet, they are at home in the first round, and they will definitely have enough energy to give Inter Milan a good look.
However, no matter how difficult this opponent is, they must be defeated. Before the Champions League final begins, Dick wants a little more time to prepare.
Figo's condition was not very good, and Dick simply did not let him play. Although he rested for a week, it was not easy to recover from the high-intensity game against AC Milan. Most of the main players were not in good condition.
It was particularly exciting. Except for Figo, Toni also seemed a little tired, so in this game, Dick began to use more flexible tactics, starting with Di Natale and Ibrahimovic partnering, and sending on both wings.
Perrotta and Stankovic, midfielder Yaya Toure replaced Sneijder and Mascherano guarded the center, and the younger Chiellini and the more flexible Cordo were deployed on the defense.
Ba partnered with the central defender to cope with Roma's fast and flexible attack.
This game was later considered a classic. Two teams that were also fast and flexible played a wonderful offensive battle in the game, a wonderful goal battle with each other's attacks.
Only fifty-two seconds into the game, Panucci made a straight pass from the right. Taddei received the ball and broke into the penalty area to cross the ball. Totti received the ball in the penalty area and turned around with his right foot to volley into the near corner of the goal. The ball quickly flew into the goal.
Beat zero! Just fifty-two seconds into the game, Roma broke Inter Milan's record of not conceding a goal for five hundred and fifty consecutive minutes in the Italian Cup!
After scoring this goal, Roma seemed to have no intention of stopping at all. Under the command of Spalletti, they continued to launch a fierce attack. They continued to pass the ball quickly and passed back and forth to Inter Milan.
The defense line creates pressure, constantly passes, transfers, and pulls. If there is a chance to break through, break through. If there is no chance to break through, pass the ball. Don't seek to achieve the best offensive opportunity. As long as there is a chance, shoot immediately!
In the fifth minute, Totti's shot from outside the penalty area was saved by Cesar. Pizarro took a corner kick from the left. Mexes volleyed from behind. The ball flew to the goal and was directly lifted by De Rossi.
Blocked the door!
Two to zero! Roma took a two-goal lead in the first five minutes. Their turbulent attack made Inter Milan seem a little bit blindsided - or in other words, Inter Milan became the winner of the Champions League semi-finals in this game.
AC Milan, they began to slowly warm up. The reason is very simple. In this game against Roma, Inter Milan's physical fitness was not able to take advantage...
It's just that for the current Inter Milan, they have seen all kinds of storms. After being beaten 2-0 by the opponent at the beginning of this game, Inter Milan began to gradually stabilize their position, and Roma opened the game
The spirit of the team was also somewhat worn away. After the pace slowed down, Inter Milan began to gradually create opportunities.
In the 16th minute, after a series of passes, Inter Milan regained a point - Yaya Toure passed the ball directly to the right side of the penalty area. Maicon touched the ball first in front of Chivu and hooked the ball into the penalty area. Dina
Talai volleyed in front of the opponent's two central defenders, regaining a point for Inter Milan!
This goal reminded Roma fans of the Italian Super Cup before the start of this season. At that time, Roma also led by two goals, but was reversed by Inter Milan by four goals...
However, the Roma players quickly proved with their offense that they did not want that history to repeat!
In the back-and-forth minute, Roma's frequent attacks once again achieved results. Panucci made a pass from the wing, Cesar hit the ball not far away, and Mancini fell to the ground in the penalty area to tackle the ball.
The ball was shoveled into the empty goal, three to one, and Roma led by two goals again!
The Roma fans began to shout loudly, but soon they discovered that they seemed to be too happy...
In the 33rd minute, when Pizarro picked up the ball from the wing, Maicon forced him to pass it back to Doni in the penalty area. Di Natale quickly appeared on the path of the ball and intercepted it first.
Then he raised his foot and shot before Doni struck, and hit the ball into the near corner of the goal. Three to two, Inter Milan once again reduced the deficit to one point!
Roma is under a bit of pressure at this time. Although they are still leading, this game is their home court. If they concede too many goals, it will have a great impact on the second round...
And this worry became a reality before the end of the first half. In the 40th minute, Stankovic took the ball on the left side of the penalty area. Seeing that no one was coming to defend him, he suddenly kicked and volleyed into the far corner. The ball hit hard.
It hit the inside of the post and bounced into the goal...
"Three to three draws! Stankovic's beautiful long shot! This first half was really thrilling! Both sides were not conservative at all in offense, and the fast attack was extremely exciting! However, such a large number of goals seemed to
Roma will have a greater impact, at least Inter Milan is not worried about the problem of scoring more away goals..."
Such an excellent start only resulted in a draw with a large number of goals. This was certainly not a result Spalletti was willing to accept, so he adjusted his tactics in the second half, hoping to be more secure and strive to win at home.
The opponent did not allow Inter Milan to get too many scoring opportunities. However, in this case, Spalletti, who was not experienced enough, made a mistake. In this situation, he can only move forward and cannot stop, especially
Compared with Inter Milan, Roma are younger and more powerful. Giving up their own advantages is obviously giving up the advantage to their opponents!
So after the start of the second half, Inter Milan started to have the advantage. Their state was completely stimulated, while Roma tragically began to be beaten by Inter Milan...
Spalletti soon discovered his mistake, but at this time he didn't have much else to do. When the initiative was taken by his opponent, it would be very difficult to get it back.
Ibrahimovic helped Inter Milan take the lead for the first time in the game in the 63rd minute. Yaya Toure scored Inter Milan's fifth goal in the 72nd minute, although Panucci received a call from his teammate before the end.
The header from the corner kick scored a point, but it still could not save Roma from losing at home. After losing 4 to 5 at home to Inter Milan, it seemed that it would not be easy for them to come back in the second round...
This was the Serie A team's last resistance against Inter Milan. Although they resisted until the last moment, they still could not stop Inter Milan from moving towards a peak.
A week later, Inter Milan once again defeated Roma 2-1 at home, defeated Roma 7-5 over two rounds, and won the Italian Cup championship this season.
In the remaining three league rounds, Inter Milan defeated Messina and Turin, and drew with Lazio. Their final score this season was 33 wins, 5 draws, 104 points, and 1 goal.
One hundred and six, conceding 41 goals, and won the league championship this season with a record number of points!
Twenty-seven consecutive wins, 104 points, thirty-three wins, an unbeaten season, three consecutive seasons with over 100 goals, three consecutive league titles - Inter Milan have reached their peak at this moment.
, this is a domestic achievement that even the Inter Milan era has not been able to achieve.
Compared with the Inter Milan era, the current Inter Milan is only one Champions League champion away. Now, they have reached the Champions League finals and are beginning to move towards becoming the first defending champion after the Champions League reform. At the same time, they are also heading towards
Italy's first Triple Crown moves forward!
This is the most powerful Inter Milan in history, and it is also the most dominant Inter Milan. Now they are advancing aggressively towards the Triple Crown, while Liverpool, which only finished fourth in the Premier League, can withstand Inter Milan.
The pace of progress?
Everyone is waiting for this game on May 31st, and this game will be the last and most important game in Europe this season.
In this summer without major competitions, if this final is exciting, it will be enough to make people talk about it for a whole summer.
