Chapter 664 Advance to the semi-finals

When the referee blew the whistle to the end of the game, all the Inter Milan fans sat in their positions in a daze. They couldn't believe that Inter Milan played so well, but at their home court, they still lost to Mallorca. They fell behind three times in a row. They worked hard to win back and overtake the score, but Mallorca won two games again...

The Mallorca players on the court cheered and hugged each other. This was indeed a difficult victory. Mallorca's main central defender was not there, and the players were not in very good shape. They challenged Inter Milan away. In these unfavorable situations, Jose relied on his own to expose Inter Milan's problems one by one in the game. The first two goals captured Worm's defensive flaws, and the last two goals captured Inter Milan's reason for not being strong enough in the midfield. This targeted tactic achieved very good results. This victory proved everything. In terms of tactical adjustment, Jose completely defeated Mancini!

"The game is over, four to three! Mallorca defeated Inter Milan away! This victory puts them quite close to the semi-finals. Although they only won one goal, Inter Milan must win two away goals to eliminate Mallorca to enter the semi-finals. Mallorca has never lost at home after Jose took office... Inter Milan did not perform badly in this game, but unfortunately Mallorca played better, and Jose's adjustment also played a good role. Van Persie sent him scored the crucial fourth goal and assisted the third goal. Senna, who also came on the bench, helped Mallorca stabilize the defense line. After achieving this critical victory, Mallorca can almost enter the Champions League semi-finals early!"

The entire Mallorca team who returned to Mallorca was warmly welcomed by fans. This victory was quite inspiring for Mallorca, who was already five points behind in the league, which at least means that they will continue to move forward in the Champions League!

On another field, Arsenal, who was at home, performed well. Fabregas, who succeeded Vieira, performed completely overwhelmed the old captain in the game. He helped Arsenal defeat Juventus 2-0 at home. What is surprising is that Juventus, who has a luxurious lineup, did not have a threatening shot in the whole game, and it can be said that he lost the away game!

Juventus and Inter Milan lost away and home games one after another, which made the Serie A team that occupied the most seats in the quarterfinals lose their faces. Another team, AC Milan, was also tied by Lyon 0-0 away games. Three teams played in the quarterfinals of the Champions League but had no wins, which was indeed embarrassing...

In another game, Barcelona, ​​who was considered to be the best luck, failed to win as they wished. They were also tied to zero by Benfica on the away game. If they want to advance, it depends on their home performance.

Mallorca's game against Inter Milan is considered the most exciting game in the four Champions League games. The soul-stirring attack, the players on both sides fully demonstrated their courage and skills. Of course, Liverpool's home defeat of Juventus is also considered a classic example. "Wenger's tactical arrangement defeated Capello's seemingly conservative tactics, and the vigorous Arsenal boys made Juventus veterans lower their noble heads." France's "Team" commented on this game.

The situation between Mallorca and Arsenal is of course good now. Mallorca only needs to get a draw at home to advance to the semi-finals. Even if they lose, as long as they lose no more than one, they can basically qualify - unless they lose four to five at home, and Arsenal can qualify as long as they don't lose two away games. Their situation is much better than Barcelona and AC Milan.

However, this game brought a great burden to Mallorca. Mallorca performed very well in the away game, which made the players feel a little overdrawn, which directly led to their poor performance in the weekend...

Their 31st round of the league match was their opponent in the Copa del Rey final. In this game, Mallorca's players were far from performing well in the middle of the week, and finally had no choice but to play a boring zero-to-zero with their opponents at home. Espanyol's defense throughout the game was quite solid. Mallorca did not get any chance in the whole game and could only accept a zero-to-zero result.

However, their competitor Barcelona did not perform well. In this round, they tied with Real Madrid one-to-one at home, continuing to lead Mallorca by five points.

Jose also seemed helpless about this situation. The players were too excited in the previous game and could easily fall into a slump after a few days. Mallorca is like this now. If their performance was relatively stable before, then their performance would be very stable. However, for Mallorca, they now value the Champions League more - because the fact that the three consecutive championships in the league and the fact that they failed to enter the finals in the Champions League last season made them unconsciously start to shift their center of gravity to the Champions League. Jose saw this sign, but he did not think about changing this point. First of all, it was necessary to force it, but it would easily make the players in bad shapes at both ends. Secondly, he himself also wanted to compete for the Champions League championship more...

Last season, he beat Barcelona and won the league championship. If he blocked Barcelona again this season, the so-called "Dream 2" would completely disappear...

If this were the case, Ronaldo would not have fallen early because he won too much honor - Jose thought so in his heart.

Although Ronaldo is no longer a player under his command, he still doesn't want Ronaldo to fall prematurely. He starts to decline at the golden age of 26. This is a loss in the world football world. He hopes that the elves on this court can maintain their peak period to at least 30 years old. If you watch it longer, the fans in the world will have more fun.

Since he had been tied at home, Jose did not continue to struggle. In the next few days, he just quietly restored his players to physical fitness and waited for Inter Milan's visit at home...

Compared with the quiet state of Mallorca, there are some trees on Inter Milan that want to be quiet but the wind is not stopping...

After losing the game, conflicts are often more likely to be aroused, and this is how Inter Milan is now.

Although there was no news, the situation was quite serious when training in the team. On the training ground, Peron and Adriano began to be strangers. The two did not talk. If they were in the team's training game, they would not pass each other. In this case, Mancini had a very headache. He had no time to resolve the conflict between the two people - the three-foot-freezing snow is not a day. Even if Mourinho or Jose resolved it, it would not be possible to resolve it within a few days. Mancini could only hope that the two could abandon the conflict and play well before the battle...

When setting out for Mallorca, Mancini's heart was calmer, because on the surface, the two seemed to have left a conflict before the game came and began to prepare for the game seriously - for Inter Milan now, these two people are too important, especially after the last game, Figo was found to have suffered some injuries. When he was unable to play in this game, Peron's organization and Ade's breakthrough were very important to Inter Milan.

What Mancini didn't know was that in fact, there was no conflict between the two people now, but there was nothing to say. Adriano thought that his ability and performance were excellent, so he should be the main force of the offense, just hand the ball to me, and then I went to solve the game - this was what he did last season, and did a good job.

As a very self-disciplined player, Peron instinctively disgusted Adriano's approach. What he wants to prove is not only this thing, but also that his point of view is correct. Once it reaches this point, it will not be easy to resolve conflicts. Top-notch people like Wang Anshi and Sima Guang who appreciate each other are incompatible because of political disagreement, let alone these two people. In the final analysis, the conflict between the two is a conflict of ideas, not just a personal grudge.

The two main players in the team are in disagreement. What will happen when facing Mallorca, who is united as one of them away?

Of course it was a pretty bad result...

April 5th, Conch Stadium.

More than 2,000 Inter Milan fans who came from afar were disappointed with the Inter Milan fans who were guarding the TV to watch the game. Their team looked exactly the same as a week ago. Without sharp breakthroughs, active running and crazy attacks, only a group of players on the court who were like headless flies running blindly. Peron just took the ball in the midfield and kept shooting forward and long shots. After occasionally receiving the ball, Adriano did not cooperate with his teammates. He just forced a breakthrough and used his personal ability to attack. Facing Matthias, who had returned from the ban, he did not find any opportunity at all.

In the mess of Inter Milan's attack, Mallorca's attack naturally played well. They controlled the midfield and then launched continuous attacks. Torres and Cloze continued to attack Inter Milan's defense line. The most normal performance of Inter Milan may be their defense line. Cordoba and Samuel continuously blocked each other, and Zanetti, who was on the left, kept running. Beletti created one of the few threatening attacks on the right. Tordo's save was also quite exciting, blocking Mallorca's must-scoring goals...

Unfortunately, the overall passivity is not something that these individual highlights can make up for. Inter Milan is passive in the whole game. No matter how outstanding the players on the defense perform, they only add a touch of tragic color to this game...

In the 41st minute of the first half, Mallorca finally opened Inter Milan's defense in a bombing. Kaka's long shot was blocked by Tordo, but Torres fell to the ground and shot in front of Cordoba and stabbed the ball into the goal. Mallorca expanded his advantage in two rounds to two balls.

In the second half, Inter Milan's offense still did not improve, while Mallorca relied on a set piece to expand its leading advantage again. Alonso drove the ball into the penalty area, Tordo made a mistake, Mattias headed the ball and shot, and the ball flew from Tordo into the goal behind him. 2-0, Mallorca laid the victory!

Mancini, with a dark face, replaced Adriano with Cruise five minutes after the second half, but there was still no improvement. The final whistle sounded, Mallorca defeated Inter Milan 2-0 at home, and advanced to the semi-finals with a total score of 6-3!
