Lazio led Roma by two goals in twenty minutes, and everyone felt that the game was basically over.
The rest of the game doesn't matter.
But soon they discovered that they were wrong!
The game has just begun!
After Lazio led Roma by two goals, Roma did not completely shrink its defense.
We're two goals behind anyway, so what's the point of defending?
It's better to just attack and score a goal. If you're lucky, you might even tie the score!
So the attack continued.
But Rome soon felt that something was wrong.
Just four minutes after Hernanes scored, Lazio completed a steal in the midfield. Ledesma lifted the ball from the air and the ball fell right at the feet of Modric nearby.
At the same time, Roma midfielder Perrotta rushed up and tried to tackle, forcing Modric to lose the ball.
Modric, however, looked very light. He turned his back to the direction of the attack and used the outside instep of his right foot to move the football diagonally into the space behind him. Then he jumped up quickly and even avoided Perrotta's tackle while dribbling the ball.
.
The football he put into the open space was received by David Silva.
He quickly dribbles the ball forward!
At this time, because Roma had been on the offensive, their defense seemed empty.
There are only two Roma defenders in front of David Silva, one is directly in front of him, and the other is defending Klose in the middle.
David Silva didn't pass the football right away, that would be meaningless.
He needs to draw all of Roma's defensive attention to himself, forcing Roma to defend himself alone.
So instead of passing the ball immediately, he accelerated the ball and rushed forward!
Sure enough, his determined forward drive gave Roma's defense a headache.
At this time, even if he knew that Lazio had people supporting him in the center and on the right, he could only force himself to block David Silva.
Because David Silva also has the ability to score, if the defense against him is not tight enough, people can shoot by themselves without passing the ball...
When David Silva approached the penalty area with the ball, the two remaining Roma defenders were all in front of him, and there was a pursuer Brighi behind him, who was also running towards him.
David Silva knows he can pass the ball.
So he passed the football horizontally to Klose, who had already run out of the ball.
Klose caught the ball at the top of the penalty arc. He did not stop the ball directly, but passed the football. When the football came to the control of his right foot, he shot directly!
The football was pulled out of an arc by his right foot, bypassed the goalkeeper Sergio who made the save, and got into the net for the third time...
"Klose! 3:0! Lazio leads with three goals!"
"Klose scored twice! It's unbelievable that this is his first Rome derby!"
※※※
Three goals behind. The morale of the Roma side was hit.
Falling behind by three goals in twenty-four minutes, this game is indeed too difficult to play.
And judging from the situation of the game, let alone equalizing the score, it would be difficult for Roma to score a goal...
When the game restarted, Roma, who had been aggressive before, seemed a little hesitant.
They didn't know whether to continue the attack or retreat.
Because of Burdisso's red card, De Rossi temporarily played as a central defender, so Roma has a lot of hidden dangers in the defense.
This loss of the ball clearly illustrates this point. De Rossi went up to participate in the attack. As a result, there were only three defenders in the defense.
There was only one central defender, Mexes, who ran to defend David Silva. So Klose was completely ignored...
If they continue to play like this, they always feel that they will continue to lose goals.
But if we don't fight like this, wouldn't it be tantamount to surrendering in advance?
Ranieri stood on the sidelines, looking helpless at the situation in front of him.
His silver hair was messy in the night wind, just like his mood. He really didn't expect that his team would lose three goals less than half an hour into the game... when Cavani came off the field.
He was indeed secretly happy. Now it seems that he should hope that Cavani is on the court, so that Klose will have no chance to play!
※※※
Roma continued to hesitate in the game, but Lazio would not stop and wait for them to decide, or Klose would not stop and wait for them.
Three minutes. Just three minutes after Klose scored twice, Lazio made a comeback!
This time, Modric, who took the ball in the midfield, was forced by Roma players to turn around and walk back. It seemed that Roma's defense was successful.
Unexpectedly, in the process of turning around and carrying it back, Modric suddenly turned 180 degrees and sent the football under his feet to the front again!
This pass was sudden and difficult. The defending Roma midfielder Brighi had no idea that Modric would play like this.
The football flew past him, then went over the head of left back Riise and landed in the open space behind him.
Gotze was originally running back, but when he saw the pass, he immediately turned around and sprinted back!
In front of his dexterity, Rise was as clumsy as an elephant.
Gotze received the ball first, and instead of continuing to dribble, he swept the football to the front of Roma's goal!
Gotze's pass was very sneaky. It happened to be between the chasing center back De Rossi and the goalkeeper Sergio. It was inconvenient for Sergio to reach the ball, and if De Rossi returned to defense, it would be very difficult.
It is possible to kick the football into your own goal and turn it into an own goal.
So even though Sergio made a separate attack, Gotze's pass was too fast and he couldn't save it.
De Rossi, on the other hand, was afraid of an own goal and did not fully defend. Although he made a tackle, his speed was a beat slower.
The football passed in front of his toes.
If there is no one behind him, the ball will slide past him.
But how could such a good thing happen?
But when Klose saw Modric turn around and pass the ball to Gotze, he started running into the penalty area. He was not very fast at first. He kept his eyes on Gotze, wanting to see if Gotze could get the ball.
When he found out that Gotze had received the ball, he immediately accelerated forward and hit the target!
The football passed in front of De Rossi's toes, and Klose, who was behind him, moved his foot across and swept it away!
The football flew into the goal before goalkeeper Sergio could pounce back!
"4:0!! Klose completed his hat trick!"
"Hat! Hat! Hat trick! Hat trick!!! Klose! Fantastic Klose! It only took him eighteen minutes to complete the hat trick! He scored the first goal in nine minutes, and
It’s twenty-seven minutes now! The hat trick was completed in 18 minutes, which ranks third in Serie A history! This is the third fastest hat trick in history! He surpassed Trezeguet’s 19 minutes in the 2007-2008 season.
Hat-trick record!”
The commentator Caressa shouted excitedly.
The fastest hat-trick record in the history of Serie A was set by AC Milan's legendary forward Van Basten in the 1991-92 season, when AC Milan faced Atalanta at home. Van Basten scored in the 34th, 36th and 36th minutes.
Two goals were scored in forty minutes, and the hat trick was completed in just six minutes.
The second-ranked team also comes from AC Milan, which was created by the Ukrainian "nuclear warhead" Shevchenko in the 1999-2000 season. AC Milan challenged Perugia away from home. The two sides tied 0:0 in the first half, and Shevchenko won in the second half.
In the 69th, 73rd and 76th minutes, three goals were scored in these seven minutes, completing a hat trick. AC Milan also relied on this hat trick to defeat Perugia 3:0 away from home.
Originally the third place was Trezeguet's 19-minute hat trick.
Klose now surpassed him in 18 minutes and became the third fastest person.
"This is Klose's first Rome Derby... His performance is unbelievable! Is this really a newcomer to the Rome Derby? He is as cruel as a battle-experienced general!"
Even Chang Sheng was stunned. In his memory, Klose did not perform so crazy after he transferred to Lazio...
What happened to Klose today? Is he in such good condition?
He has scored three goals now, and he has only had three shots on goal since he came on the field!
Three shots, three goals, 100% goal rate!
Is Klose going to go against the grain today?!
Chang Sheng thought so as he looked at Klose celebrating his goal on the court.
Klose, who came off the bench, became the protagonist instead. He stole everyone's light by himself. The Rome derby was just a stage paved for him...
※※※
At the 27th minute, Roma was already four goals behind.
This ball made Roma hesitate. They knew very well that they had to defend now no matter what.
Because they can't keep conceding the ball!
Otherwise, how can we play this game?
Although it is said that pressing out and attacking your opponent is to show your courage.
But if the loss is too tragic, then no matter how much courage you have, it will be meaningless.
Ranieri also woke up with a start.
It's already 0:4. Roma has definitely lost this game, and he can't change this result.
But at least he can decide how many goals to lose.
So he immediately made adjustments and stuck to it!
Hold on to the end!
The Roma players also realized that they could not continue to concede goals like this.
So there was no hesitation, no controversy.
Roma quickly gave up the idea of attacking and turned to defense across the board, shrinking in their own penalty area. Not giving Lazio a chance.
In less than half an hour of the game, the opponent made such a negative plan, which is really rare in Serie A...
But do Ranieri and the Roma players think they can face humiliation by doing this?
Innocent!
Today is destined not to belong to them!
You must know that this is a Rome derby. This game can stimulate the players to secrete a lot of adrenaline and make their blood boil.
Lazio has already made a killing, how could they just give up? (To be continued...)
