Chapter 0508, genius striker(1/2)
Today AC Milan played 4-3-1-2, which is a relatively balanced formation.
In comparison, Inter Milan's lineup is more aggressive.
3-4-1-2 formation.
Goalkeeper Handanovic.
The three defenders are Juan Jesus, Samuel and Ranocchia.
The four midfielders are Tomo Yuto, Cambiasso, Sneijder and Zanetti.
Attacking midfielder Coutinho.
Forwards Cassano, Diego Milito.
On the bench, players such as Palacio, Guarin, Silvestre, Castellachi, Joel Obi and others sat.
This lineup is luxurious enough and has world-class strength.
However, its performance has been extremely poor in recent times.
Especially Sneijder and Diego Milito are in terrible shape.
As members of Inter Milan's five-time champions, the two created the Nerazzurri's most glorious history in 2010.
But two seasons have passed and their current state has plummeted.
Milito has reasons for his age and injuries, but Sneijder is just 28 years old and in his prime, so logically this shouldn't be the case.
The continuous poor performance even made Stramaccioni plan to change the core.
However, as the veteran of Inter Milan's five crowns, Stramaccioni did not dare to act rashly.
So in this game, Sneijder and Milito both started.
The mentality of fans from both sides today is completely different.
AC Milan looks forward to continuing to win, win seven consecutive Serie A victories, and continue to lead the standings.
Inter Milan fans are in deep trouble. If they cannot win this game, the league ranking will fall to ten places.
This is like a disaster for the proud Inter Milan.
The referee's whistle sounds and the game begins!
Inter Milan kicked off first.
Continuous passes between midfielders and frontcourt players.
Two one-two passes between Sneijder and Coutinho.
Coutinho was in good form in this game.
Feeding the ball forward, Milito knocked back.
Coutinho volleyed directly!
Abbiati made a flying save and knocked the ball out with his fingertips!
Nice shot and nice save!
Looking at Coutinho high-fiving his teammates, Long Yu suddenly felt a little dazed.
When he was at Inter Milan, the two people who had the best relationship with Long Yu were Pazzini and Coutinho.
And because of the change of head coach, they have not been able to get stable playing opportunities.
Coutinho was loaned to Espanyol and had a good performance.
But after returning to Inter Milan, the situation was still not good.
After returning to Serie A, Coutinho was violated by an opponent and suffered a bone fracture, which also brought a serious psychological shadow to him.
The current Coutinho has no problem with his technique, but he is very afraid of physical confrontation.
If this continues for a long time, he will be useless in Serie A.
It is said that Coutinho is already considering leaving Inter Milan.
The next stop may be to return to La Liga, or to the Premier League and Bundesliga.
Thinking of this, Long Yu shook his head slightly.
After a good opening performance, Coutinho received even more special care from AC Milan.
Muntari, former teammate of Inter Milan, focused on his old acquaintance in this game.
He knew very well that Coutinho was afraid of physical confrontation, so he used very fierce tackles in two consecutive defenses.
Inter Milan players protested dissatisfied, and the referee only gave a warning.
After all, Muntari didn't do anything too outrageous.
After all, they are old acquaintances, how could they really kill him?
However, this kind of fierce intimidation made Coutinho obviously timid.
For the next period of time, he was inactive in the frontcourt and no longer had the aura he had in the opening game.
However, Inter Milan's attack was fruitless, and AC Milan's efficient counterattack began.
In a counterattack in the 7th minute of the opening game, Long Yu got the ball in the frontcourt and hit Pazzini across the pitch.
The latter missed a good opportunity with a shot in front of the goal.
This is a great ball, it would be a pity to lose it.
Then, AC Milan's counterattack continued.
In the 17th minute of the game, Chang Ming launched a long pass attack from the midfielder!
The ball goes straight to the center of the penalty area!
Long Yu's header hits the target!
Pazzini shot from behind into the far corner of the goal!
Inter Milan goalkeeper Handanovic fell to the ground and blocked the ball!
But their crisis is not over yet!
Long Yu, who landed on the ground, stretched out his long legs!
The ball was hit into the net!
The ball went in!
1 to 0!
AC Milan scored first!
San Siro cheers!
With one goal ahead, AC Milan's morale is obviously higher.
In the 26th minute of the game, Chang Ming made a diagonal pass to Pazzini, who shot into the far corner of the goal!
Handanovic was blocked from view by Samuel and had no time to save!
good chance!
The ball slides out...
Allegri on the sidelines shook his head repeatedly.
Pazzini's condition was very bad today.
The assistant coach next to him asked in a low voice: "If he continues to be unable to find his form, we can consider replacing him at halftime."
Allegri shook his head: "Substituting at this time just proves that he is not good today? It is inappropriate."
"But he will affect our offensive efficiency."
"I'm even more concerned about Pazzini's self-confidence than the outcome of a game."
"But the price is a bit high..."
"Facing his old club, he really wanted to score a goal, so he was a little anxious. But we can't be anxious. We have to give him more patience."
"I hope he can find his form as soon as possible..."
Allegri is willing to give Pazzini more opportunities, not only because he cares about the players, but also because Long Yu is in excellent condition today.
Continuously fighting in the frontcourt, Long Yu stirred up a mess in Inter Milan's backcourt.
In the 37th minute of the game, AC Milan finally scored again.
This time it was Chang Ming's dispatch in the middle, attracting the defense, and suddenly passing it to Montolivo next to him!
Montolivo suddenly dribbles the ball forward!
Inter Milan was caught off guard in the backcourt!
Boateng in front is waiting for the response, but Montolivo still looks for Long Yu!
To be continued...
