In Gao Han's plan, the first round of Serie A against Fiorentina and the first group stage of the Champions League away to Sporting Lisbon are both crucial games in the opening stage. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Therefore, when playing Fiorentina, he did not play the main team, but kept part of the main team until the first round of the Champions League group stage.

Playing Sporting Lisbon away, Inter Milan's overall strength occupies an overwhelming advantage, and Gao Han also discharged a stronger attacking lineup, especially on the two wings, arranging Evra and McCone to start at the same time, coupled with the trident in the front, showing his determination to defeat Sporting Lisbon in one fell swoop.

Unlike the away game against Fiorentina, when visiting Portugal, Gao Han decisively adjusted his tactics, arranged Yaya Toure to start, replaced Figo, and partnered with Veron, and also required all the players to be anti-away from the beginning and take the initiative.

As Gao Han, who has a wealth of experience in the European arena, knows better than anyone that Inter Milan has the advantage in strength, but in the end, it is an away game, and if it is not able to give the opponent a head-on blow from the beginning, Sporting Spen will quickly adjust.

It can even be said that the more conservative Inter Milan plays, the more courage Sporting Lisbon will have to entangle.

So, the best thing to do is to fight the whirlwind quickly and stun the other party from the start.

The game was also as Gao Han expected, and it entered the rhythm of Inter Milan from the beginning.

Less than a minute into the game, Ibrahimovic had a very good chance to score in the box, receiving a cross from McCone on the edge of the box and curling a right-footed volley that was saved by goalkeeper Ricardo.

Patrice Evra then attacked again from the left, but the French left-back's final low cross was too close to goal and was directly confiscated by Ricardo.

The real turning point came in the seventh minute, when Cristiano Ronaldo cut inside on the left and passed to Ibrahimovic at the edge of the box, where the Swedish centre-forward made a decisive dribble but was tripped by defender Tonel at the edge of the box, who received the first yellow card of the game and Inter won a direct free-kick.

In the end, Adriano opened the scoring for Inter Milan with a powerful direct free-kick that penetrated Ricciardo's goal and made it 1-0.

With the goal in hand, Inter Milan began to play more steadily, while Sporting Lisbon pressed the counterattack.

There are several young players in this Portuguese Super League team who have left a deep impression on Gao Han, one is midfielders Veloso and Moutinho, the former is a midfielder, with good defensive ability, good at taking the ball and passing, and Moutinho is very much like Deco back then, both are quite good.

There is also a winger Nani, who is said to have been taken a fancy by Manchester United's Alex Ferguson, known as Cristiano Ronaldo II, but Gao Han does not think so, Nani is still far from his beloved apprentice.

After Inter Milan took the lead, the two teams fought fiercely in midfield, with the likes of Moutinho, Veloso and Yaya Toure receiving late yellow cards, but Inter played more patiently, frequently exploiting Sporting Lisbon's mistakes to create counter-attacks.

Especially in the second half, Sporting Lisbon's restless mentality was exposed.

In the 62nd minute, Inter Milan seized an opportunity to counterattack, after the ball was broken at the back, Veron launched a long-distance long pass of more than 50 meters, Cristiano Ronaldo drove straight in, grabbed the ball before everyone, stopped inward, shook the opponent's right-back who was chasing back at high speed, and suddenly pulled his leg at the edge of the penalty area to shoot angrily, and once again broke through Ricardo's goal, rewriting the score to 2-0.

The score was maintained until the end of the game.

Almost at the same time, the other matchup in the same group, Bayern Munich's home match against Spartak Moscow, also ended at the Allianz Arena.

Bayern Munich, playing at home, beat the opponent 4-0, but the process of the game was far from as strong and weak as the score revealed, and it can even be said that Bayern Munich won very dangerously.

Throughout the first half, Bayern Munich firmly suppressed Spartak Moscow in the game, forcing the opponent to retreat completely, nine of the ten players were cowered in their own half, leaving only one striker Pavlyuchenko to swim in the front court to counterattack.

But even so, the most threatening attacks in the entire first half came from Spartak Moscow.

Unfortunately, Kahn was quite good and Spartak Moscow was never able to find the back of the net for Bayern Munich.

In the second half, Bayern Munich decisively adjusted their tactics, launched a rush after the opening, and took advantage of Sparta Moscow's unstable start to score two goals in four minutes to rewrite the score to 2-0.

But for the next 20 minutes, Bayern Munich was pressed by Spartak Moscow.

It wasn't until more than 70 minutes later, after Magath made a series of substitutions, that Bayern Munich regained its footing, and scored two goals in the 71st and 80th minutes to rewrite the score to 4-0.

But although the game was won, Gao Han's evaluation of Bayern Munich was not high.

After returning to Milan from Portugal, Gao Han and the coaching staff watched the footage of the game for the first time, carefully studying the other two opponents in the group stage, and the results were a little disappointed.

Spartak Moscow is not a strong team in Pot 4 and the real threat is the cold weather in Russia, especially in the home games during November and February, which is the biggest challenge for the visitors.

If you look at it purely in terms of strength, Moscow Sparta is not to be feared.

Magath should think the same way, so he even sent a three-striker tactic in the hope of strengthening the attack.

But in reality, the offense is not just a threat because of the number of strikers.

Throughout the first half, Bayern Munich had more than 60% possession of the ball and had an overwhelming advantage, but the penetration in the middle failed to open up the situation, and there was no threat in the small area of the local area, but it was Spartak Moscow's counterattack again and again, which made Bayern Munich's goalkeeper Kahn very busy.

It wasn't until the second half that Bayern Munich regained the advantage of attacking on the flanks and took advantage of the opening attack to swallow Spartak Moscow in one bite.

But even so, Bayern Munich still allowed Spartak Moscow to play a few dangerous attacks.

"Bayern Munich is not as strong as it used to be. Gao Han shook his head and sighed.

After experiencing a strong start at the beginning of the century, Bayern Munich fell into a slump with the sinking of the entire Serie A league, but even so, the strength of the Bundesliga team should not be underestimated.

But with the departure of players such as Sagnol and Ballack, and the retirement of veterans such as Lizarazu, Bayern Munich's overall strength has been seriously weakened, and even playing a Moscow Spartak at their home stadium is so dangerous.

Of course, this also has a lot to do with Bayern Munich's style.

"They're good at physical strength and they're very ferocious in their fights, but attacking is a big problem, so we should do what we do best, with passing and the rhythm of the game, with softness to overcome rigidity, lead them by the nose and completely control the game. ”

Gao Han's judgment also won the unanimous affirmation of the core coaching staff.

Inter Milan are still very experienced in playing such teams, such as Juventus.

Even, to some extent, Juventus last season was far stronger and tougher than Bayern Munich, but the result?

…………

…………

After deciding on the strategy for the game against Bayern Munich, the coaching staff began to make arrangements.

However, there is not much time left for Inter to prepare, as they will have a total of three Serie A games in the next seven days, which will be a big test for the Nerazzurri.

On September 16, in the second round of Serie A, Inter Milan ushered in the first home game of the new season.

At the Meazza Stadium, the Nerazzurri opened the scoring against Sampdoria thanks to Cristiano Ronaldo's goal in the 21st minute.

In the second half, Inter Milan scored three goals through Cristiano Ronaldo, Patrice Evra and McCone, and finally beat Sampdoria 4-0 at home to win their first home win of the new season.

On September 20, in the third round of Serie A, Inter Milan challenged Roma away.

Gao Han rotated his squad properly, and Recoba assisted Crews for the winning goal in the 44th minute to seal the win as the Nerazzurri exited the Stadio Olimpic.

1-0, Inter Milan won the opening three consecutive wins.

On September 23, in the fourth round of Serie A, Inter Milan faced Chievo.

Gao Han continued to rotate the starting lineup for the midweek game against Bayern Munich.

Just eleven minutes into the game, Adriano opened the scoring for Inter Milan.

But after the two teams played a stalemate, Inter Milan's state was also affected by the continuous battle, as well as the rotation of the team, a little sluggish, but in the second half after the rematch, Solari was fouled with the ball in the middle, Recoba took a free kick, Cannavaro hit a header, and the score was extended to 2-0.

Five minutes later, Stankovic scored a goal to extend the score further to 3-0.

In the 70th minute, Adriano scored another goal to seal the victory for Inter Milan.

But just six minutes later, Chievo took advantage of a counter-attack to sneak into the goal.

In the end, the score was completely locked at 4-1, and Inter Milan beat their opponents again at home.

It was also in this round that AC Milan, who had also won three in a row at the beginning, finally showed fatigue, drawing 0-0 away to Livorno, and began to fall behind Inter Milan, while the Nerazzurri firmly occupied the position of the leader of Serie A.

This further convinced everyone that the Serie A title for the new season was none other than Inter Milan.

After the fourth round of Serie A, Inter Milan ushered in the second leg of the Champions League group stage in midweek, hosting Bayern Munich.

Magath's side have had a decent start to the season in the Bundesliga, playing a total of five rounds, while Bayern Munich has three wins, one draw and one loss, with 10 points, and is tied with Schalke 04 for the top spot in the Bundesliga.

However, Bayern Munich's attacking problems have never been resolved.

Who would have thought that although this Bundesliga team has first-line strikers such as Mackay, Santa Cruz, Pizarro and Podolski this season, the team's top scorer is Van Bommel who has scored two goals in five rounds.

Seven goals scored and four goals conceded in five games is clearly not a satisfactory report card, both offensively and defensively.

This also made many German media worried about Bayern Munich's trip to Milan.

But just before the key battle, Bayern Munich striker Pizarro was on his way home in his Audi RS4 in the early hours of Sunday morning, and was checked by the German police, found to have excessive alcohol content, and was fined by the traffic department, and may even be detained, because this is his second drunk driving.

It was in this atmosphere that the roof leak coincided with overnight rain that Bayern Munich came to Milan.
