Leon found that he had overlooked the role of Carlos' excellent form in the game, and although Inter Milan had one man to play, Carlos's superb interception ability in midfield and seemingly tireless running made up for Inter's numerical disadvantage to the greatest extent.

This means that Inter Milan will have more capital to try to attack.

Inter's players 'received' the signal from head coach Leon and they became resolute in attack.

The decision to win or lose the game is fundamentally in the midfield, Liverpool's attack has invested more troops in the attack, but their current midfield configuration is strong in attack and weak in defense, and it can even be said that the defense is weak to an extreme, without a real defensive player, but they have to attack all the way.

On the side of Inter Milan, the tough style of Carlos, Muntari and Modric made Inter Milan begin to take the initiative in the midfield.

On Liverpool's side, although Benitez arranged Lucas Rewa to defend full-time, no matter how strong he is alone, he can't fight against three people alone, not to mention that Lucas's original defensive ability and confrontation ability can only be said to be average.

Inter Milan began to put more into attack, while Liverpool had to fight to press the attack, and in the last fifteen minutes of the game, the tempo of the game increased sharply, and the two sides jointly presented a wonderful attack for the fans.

***********

In the 81st minute, Inter Milan played a beautiful triangle in the front, David Silva was involved in the running position of his teammates, he successfully relied on his personal skills again to force a breakthrough from the ribs of the Liverpool defence, and then shot from a small angle, this shot faced the attacking goalkeeper Reina, Silva was too much for the angle, but in the end unfortunately hit the side netting. This made Silva very annoyed, today was hidden by the head coach and stayed on the bench for most of the game, Silva's desire to fight is very strong, and the young Spanish lad has a strong desire to pursue goals.

Liverpool then attacked, Babel received a pass from Xavi Alonso, dribbled the ball down the wing, and when faced with Patrice Evra's interception, Babel made a sharp stop, pulled the ball laterally, flashed the vacant field, and swept the ball towards goal.

Torres was on the front post, and he managed to get Zanetti behind him and force his foot to shoot.

However, the angle of the shot was small, and Cesar was well positioned to keep the ball out of the line.

Liverpool get a corner.

Alonso whipped in a tactical corner, but Torres was not in the box this time, but came out to answer it, and then he pretended to pull the ball and turn, but instead smashed the ball with his heel to Pennant, who immediately got up and crossed.

Crouch's header was hit by Inter Milan goalkeeper Cesar with a single punch, Zivo and Torres fought for the second spot, the ball smashed on Torres's back and bounced, Gerrard and Muntari pounced on the ball together, and the Liverpool captain fell to the ground in a scramble with Muntari and fell exactly in the penalty area.

The Liverpool players immediately raised their arms and shouted loudly, pointing to the penalty spot, which they thought was supposed to be a penalty for a foul on Steven Gerrard.

Inter Milan's players were also raising their hands, and their captain Zanetti slapped his right hand with his left hand and shouted in English, "Handball!"

The Liverpudlians complained about Muntari's foul on Steven Gerrard and they wanted a penalty.

The Inter Milaner complained about a handball foul by the Liverpool captain.

In the stands, the Liverpool fans booed loudly, hoping that the referee would hear them and blow for Inter Milan a penalty.

***********

The Belgian referee, De Bricle, whistled for a foul on Muntari and pointed his finger at the penalty spot.

The decision lifted the Liverpudlians on the fly, with their captain Steven Gerrard leaping from the ground and shaking his arms hard, while the rest of the Liverpool players yelled in excitement.

On Inter Milan's side, Montari, who was still lying on the ground trying to delay the game, also got up from the ground, waving his arms angrily, extremely dissatisfied with the referee's decision.

Leon was also angry on the sidelines, he shook his hand vigorously, his mouth chattered, and his face was furious, or it is not an exaggeration to describe it as angry.

Assistant coach Pablo Banderas immediately persuaded Leon and stopped his anger from spreading in time, even if Liverpool pulled back a goal, even 10,000 steps, even if Liverpool turned the tables, this is nothing for Inter Milan with the second leg of the game, but if their manager is banned from the stands for being disrespectful, it will be the biggest threat and hidden danger for Inter Milan.

On the other side, Liverpool manager Benitez and his assistant Herrera hugged, looking very excited, if Liverpool scored this penalty, then Liverpool will only be two goals behind, although the time for the game is running out, but the Liverpudlians are rekindling the flame of hope for a comeback: in Istanbul, on the field of the Champions League final, Liverpool was able to score three goals in the second half of the game 0-3 at halftime, that game really tempered Liverpool, this team's will to fight is indeed stronger。

Inter Milan's players were furious and could not accept the penalty award, and they surrounded the referee in angry protest.

"Pull that kid back for me!" Leon suddenly shouted from the sidelines.

Then people saw Modric putting his arms around Carlos and talking loudly in his ear, and just like that, Modric pulled Carlos out. Carlos was furious at the referee's decision, he was supposed to be marking Gerrard, but he was pinned down by Pennant and Muntari was going to fill his place.

Li Ang's face was blue with anger, on the one hand, he was very dissatisfied with the penalty, but the most angry thing was that he was angry with Carlos - did you kid forget a yellow card on his body? At this time, he collided with the referee, can't he wait to be sent off?

Leon told the players at half-time that in today's game, the referee from Belgium De Bricle was more harsh on the away team today, and he should be extra careful, especially not to try to provoke the majesty of the manager.

However, to Leon's relief, referee De Briclet seemed to be 'merciful' this time, only verbally warning Carlos and not playing a card.

Banderas and Mihajlovic are both relieved, if Carlos is also sent off for a yellow card, two yellows and one red, then Inter Milan will face great pressure and test in this game.

In the 83rd minute of the game, Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard won a penalty for Liverpool.
