Medel was still unable to hold on to the game after all, and was replaced by Pioli. The team's first substitution was used up because of this accidental injury.

"Medel is out of action now, which means that his injury is preventing him from continuing to play. With a change of person so early, Pioli must have thought more about the remaining two spots and used them carefully. ”

In the 43rd minute, Icardi almost knocked on Milan again with an irregular shot, but unfortunately the post saved AC Milan and made Inter miss a great opportunity.

Soon, Milan's counterattack fought, Chen Zihua took the ball with his back and gave it to Locatelli, Locatelli handed it back to Chen Zihua, Chen Zihua looked at the front, Inter Milan's backfield was as empty as he expected, and then he stuffed the ball with his right foot, Zhang Shujie started quickly, but this ball was actually an offside ball, but the linesman did not raise the flag, and the referee did not blow the whistle.

The rules of the game are like this, even if the attacking player is offside, as long as he doesn't get the ball quickly, the linesman doesn't have to raise the flag right away, which has to be judged according to the situation on the field. For example, there is a good reason why the linesman does not raise the flag now, because Handanovic rushed out of the box and kicked the ball back before Zhang Shujie.

Handanovic's kick passed to the front, Perisic shook his head and rubbed it to Icardi, Yan Tao Romagnoli looked at Icardi's position in advance, and also wanted to create an offside position, but Icardi also took a step back, and when he started again, he was already in a reasonable position.

'AC Milan made an offside mistake and Inter got a great chance at half-time!'

Donnarumma attacked, the ball fell in the big penalty area, Icardi didn't stop the ball, shot with his right foot, the part was eaten accurately, and the power was also sufficient, Donnarumma knelt on the ground with both palms, the ball hit his palm, flew out of the bottom line, and flew to the stands.

Icardi covered his face, this kind of one-handed goal was not scored, and it really shouldn't be for a striker. But then again, if every striker can score with every single shot, then what else is the goalkeeper going to do?

"It's a bit of a shame for Icardi. However, he also won a corner for Inter Milan, and the team also had at least one chance to attack. ”

The time for the first half has arrived, and the fourth official held up the LCD sign for two minutes of stoppage time, which is not a long time, but usually two minutes of stoppage time in the first half is not too short, and in some games there is no stoppage time at all in the first half. Today is mainly due to Medel's injury, which has been delayed for some time, and now he has to make up for it.

The corner kick was taken by Mario, who did not drive directly into the penalty area and passed to Candreva in the corner of the penalty area, Candreva and Candreva gave it to Kondogbia, who fired a long-range shot, the ball was blocked by Niang and back at the feet of Kondogbia, who took two steps and picked it up to Perisic.

Inter's chance came again, Perisic entered the box, the ball fell in front of him, a little far, Donnarumma came out to save, Perisic's right foot hooked the instep, the ball flew over Donnarumma's head and crashed into the AC Milan net!

2:2! Inter Milan equalized the score before half-time!

"Perisic! Perisic equalized for Inter! The Rossoneri were really tenacious, twice down, twice equalised! In terms of time, it should have been the last goal of the first half!"

The players and fans of Inter Milan are very excited, and they can get the score back before the referee's whistle blows, which is undoubtedly an encouragement to the fighting spirit of the Inter Milan soldiers in the second half, but for AC Milan, it will not hit them, especially players like Zhang Shujie and Chen Zihua, who have never seen any big winds and waves? Soon there was a draw at halftime, and there were still 45 minutes left in the second half.

Pioli's excitement was all shown to everyone in the audience through his facial expressions and body movements, while Inzaghi was sitting in the coach's seat, unable to guess what the mood of this handsome old man was at the moment, and he must have been a little disappointed, conceding a goal just over a minute before the end of the half, and no coach would be happy in his heart.

AC Milan kicked the ball in the midfield, the players of Inter Milan did not go up again, AC Milan did not attack again, it is better to save more physical strength for such thirty or forty seconds, and fight in the second half. After receiving a pass from Bonaventura, Locatelli had no time to pass it again, the first half was already over, the score between the two sides was temporarily 2:2, and after a fifteen-minute break, the two sides continued the second half. The players walked to the locker room one after another, and the players on the bench slowly walked onto the pitch to do a simple warm-up.

According to the usual practice and habit, Chen Hui sorted out his own information during the intermission. The first half was a great 45 minutes for both teams, with four goals in total, three of which were scored in the first 25 minutes, which is unusual in the history of Milan derbys. Even in the 2000/2001 season, AC Milan swept Inter Milan 6-0, and only scored two goals in the first half.

Judging from the score of this half, the two sides were tied, but the overall situation was still dominated by AC Milan, and almost every counterattack could hit the front of the opponent's penalty area. Inter Milan had 54% possession of the ball, but there was not much effect of ten fingers, and a lot of possession time was completed in their own half.

I don't know if the two sides will make any adjustments in the second half, Inter Milan should not be temporary, after all, just used a substitution, it is unlikely to use the second one immediately, AC Milan is difficult to say, in order to pursue victory, it is not ruled out that Inzaghi will make a substitution at the beginning.

The fifteen-minute break was not long, and when the players of the two teams re-walked from the locker room to the pitch, Chen Hui found that his previous guess was half right: Inter Milan did not make any changes, and neither did AC Milan, and they still maintained the original team of the first half.

The fans in the South Stand were boiling again, with large posters of three Chinese players fluttering in the wind. On the court, Zhang Shujie was already standing in the middle circle, waiting for the kickoff, and the other players were also in place and entered the battle state.

The referee looked at his watch, and as soon as the time came, the whistle sounded, Zhang Shujie knocked the ball to Bonaventura, and Bonaventura gave it to Locatelli.

After kick-off, AC Milan passed a few kicks at the back, and the Inter Milan players did not press up, perhaps thinking about these 45 minutes, this is the moment of the decisive victory, and they are also careful to deal with it, not wanting to concede any more goals. That kind of crazy attacking method can only be adapted for a while, and winning in stability is the true meaning of the game.
