Inter Milan's attack is very sharp, and the combination of one high and one fast in Chievo's forward line has also made Inter's backline suffer. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the 25th minute, Chievo played the most beautiful combination of the first half.

Malcolini curled the ball from the left, Pelissier quickly grabbed the spot, Materazzi came quickly to get close, and Pelissier chested the ball down the baseline and crossed it with a barb.

Flying Donkey centre-forward Bogdani headed in and midfielder Bentivolio stabbed Zanetti on tiptoe nine yards from goal.

Inter Milan goalkeeper Cesar was very focused, he saw that he had no time to fall to the ground, and desperately blocked the ball with his foot.

Chievo's attack shocked the Inter Milaners into a cold sweat, but it inspired the fighting spirit of the Chievo people, the atmosphere in the stands was more enthusiastic, the players on the field pressed more actively, Chievo's home Bentagotti Stadium was not big, under the active running of Chievo players, the stadium appeared smaller, Inter Milan's passing and matching errors increased significantly, and Chievo's counterattacks in the midfield were more and more.

Inter Milan played very sophisticated, and under the passivity, they still did not forget to play Chievo's counterattack.

In the 30th minute of the game, McCone broke the ball on the right side and launched a quick counterattack, he crossed to the side of the penalty area of Chievo on the side, Milito suddenly nodded the ball in front of the goal, Chievo goalkeeper Sorrentino couldn't make a save, but the ball hit the side netting.

Milito's header didn't frighten Chievo as they kept trying to attack and took the initiative on the pitch as they did in the opening stanza.

Chievo coach Di Carlo on the sidelines is not at ease with the situation on the field, he knows how sharp Inter Milan's counterattack is, if he doesn't equalize quickly, and then Inter Milan plays a few counterattacks, it is estimated that the goal will be dangerous.

"Press on press!"

"Shoot cool!"

Di Carlo waved his hand and made a forward press gesture, constantly chanting, allowing the players to increase the intensity of the attack.

Mourinho is not easy, the opponent attacks so fiercely, Inter Milan's most important position - the central defender still has major flaws, and if it is not good, the opponent will get one.

Any game is easy to counterattack, difficult to attack, once Chievo equalizes, it will definitely not be as fierce as now, and the trouble at that time is Inter Milan.

However, the quality of Inter's counter-attacks is not high at the moment, which is no wonder to the front-court players, mainly the two central midfielders Cambiasso and Zanetti.

Due to Materazzi's slow turn and slow speed, Cambiaso had to constantly help him defend Pelisier, which not only affected Cambiaso's passing during the counterattack, but also affected Cambiaso's forward assist, Inter Milan's frontcourt players could not get the ball in the first place, and when the opponent's defenders were in place, they had missed the best time to counterattack.

Mourinho saw the problem and he had a way to deal with it, but Mourinho did not rush to make substitutions, but let Gao Xiaodong retreat to assist the ball at the back.

After Gao Xiaodong retreated, Cambiasso and Zanetti focused on defense, the pressure on the back line was greatly reduced, and the counterattack became more threatening.

In the 38th minute of the game, Zanetti used good prediction to steal Luciano's pass and pass the ball to Gao Xiaodong, who quickly split the side and passed to Zivo who was in front.

Zivo dribbled quickly along the flank, passed the center circle and then passed to Gao Xiaodong, who passed to Stankovic, and the ball had hit Chievo's heartland.

Stankovic had a superb long-range shot, but Chievo didn't dare to give him space and hurried over to press it.

Stankovic was also the master who could pass and shoot when he was young, and he did dirty work in Inter Milan for a long time, and now his passing ability has been greatly degraded, and he can't do fine work, so he can not shoot from a distance, he immediately passed the ball to Gao Xiaodong, Gao Xiaodong has entered the 30-meter area at the moment, and after the ball is passed, he does not stop the ball and stuffs it directly to Milito between the two central defenders.

Milito had his back to the goal, this time there was no chance to break through and shoot, and he didn't force the ball to take it, and directly returned the ball to Gao Xiaodong.

Gao Xiaodong also did not stop the ball, and then came to a straight plug and hit the ribs of the penalty area.

When Gao Xiaodong just passed the ball to Milito, Balotelli had already inserted it into the ribs, and seeing that Gao Xiaodong did not pass it to him, but gave it to Milito, he was so anxious that he shouted, but as soon as Balotelli slowed down, he didn't expect Gao Xiaodong's ball to pass.

Even if Balotelli was a little slower, Chievo's defenders didn't keep up, and Balotelli chased the ball straight into the bottom left corner of the goal.

Gao Xiaodong's two feet were too fast, goalkeeper Sorrentino moved to the left, Balotelli completed the shot, Sorrentino save, barely blocked the ball, but the ball bounced in front of Balotelli again, Balotelli followed up and shot again, and the ball went straight into the empty goal.

2:0

After scoring the goal, Balotelli cheered and ran to Gao Xiaodong and hugged Gao Xiaodong hard, "Good pass!

Gao Xiaodong slapped Balotelli on the back and praised: "Shoot well! Mario! Keep working hard! You will be the main force!"

"Yes! I'm going to be the main force!"

Balotelli put down Gao Xiaodong and ran to the stands, taking off his jersey as he ran.

Gao Xiaodong was startled, he remembered that Balotelli seemed to have accumulated three yellow cards, and if he took off his clothes again, he would be suspended for one game, he hurried over to stop it, but Balotelli had already taken off his shirt and waved it to greet the fans, Gao Xiaodong had to stop speechlessly.

Mourinho's nose on the sidelines was almost crooked, after Eto'o left, the Inter Milan striker was already short of people, but he didn't expect Balotelli to make such a low-level mistake again, needlessly received a yellow card, resulting in suspension, smart as Mourinho really can't understand how Balotelli's head grows.

The on-site commentator Mazzola also sighed helplessly: "Genius bastard, genius idiot, this is Balotelli, Eto'o went to play the Africa Cup of Nations, such a good opportunity, but he gave himself a suspension for one game, which is really speechless." ”

Chievo's morale suffered after Balotelli's goal, and they were unable to create any more chances on goal for the rest of the first half.

At half-time, Mourinho may also feel that he can't count on Bashen and must hurry up to hone Pandev, and in the second half he directly replaced Stankovic and replaced Pandev.

It was the first time in eight years that Macedonian striker Pandev had played for Inter Milan, and the Inter fans in the stands gave him a round of applause.

However, at the beginning of the second half, before Pandev could touch a ball, the game had an accident, Chievo attacked with a long pass from the back, Inter Milan left-back Zivo and Perissier competed for the top, the two heads collided together, and when they fell from the air, Zivo's body lost protection and lay motionless on the ground.

The players knew that this situation was probably caused by the collision and lost consciousness, so they hurriedly called the team doctor and a stretcher to play.

Zivo and Pellissier were taken off on a stretcher, and after a brief treatment, Pellissier was back on the pitch, but Zivo was taken to the local hospital for examination.

Inter Milan were forced to make a substitution, with Jose Mourinho bringing on teenager Thornton to replace Zivo at left-back.

Thornton is one of the two talents that Inter Milan focuses on cultivating, although his talent is not as good as Balotelli, but his IQ and emotional intelligence are normal, and Inter Milan expects him more than Balotelli.

However, Thornton was young, fond of attacking and not so calm defensively that he quickly became the focus of Chievo's attack.

Zanetti had to help Sandton defend, but as a result, Cambiaso was left alone in Inter's midfield position, and Chievo's ferocious attack could not be stopped.

In the 55th minute of the game, Chievo crossed, Lucio and Bogdani competed, Pelissier quickly inserted behind Materazzi, Cambiaso knew that Materazzi could not keep up, and had to follow Pelissier.

At this time, Lucio and Bogdani grabbed a place, the ball was pushed to the edge of the box, and Chievo midfielder Luciano followed up with a volley to break through the Inter Milan goal and rewrite the score to 2:1.

Although Mourinho couldn't stand Materazzi's slowness, he still didn't want to give Cordoba a chance to offend him, so he asked Gao Xiaodong to come back to play in the back, changing the formation to 433.
