Chapter 475: This Isn't Quite Right!
This big club duel at the San Siro Stadium ended in a 1-1 draw. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
AC Milan, who were playing at home, took the lead in the first half thanks to Kaka's goal, but a second-half goal from Trezeguet helped the Bianconeri equalise away and the two sides eventually shook hands.
The result allowed Inter Milan, who beat Sampdoria away, to take advantage of the fisherman and extend their lead.
After ten rounds of league matches, Inter Milan occupies the league leader position with ten consecutive wins.
Juventus have eight wins, one draw and one loss in 10 games, with 25 points, five points behind Inter Milan and in second place.
AC Milan are third in Serie A with seven wins, two draws and one defeat, with 23 points.
Fiorentina, Livorno, Verona and Palermo are fourth to seventh, while Roma and Lazio are on the same number of points, both with 15 points, and eighth and ninth in the league.
This has also led to media hype about Inter's lead, which is five points ahead in the first ten rounds, which looks like a one-off streak, but there are also many media who doubt how long Inter's winning streak can last.
"Could it be that no one in Serie A can stop Gao Han?"
The wonders of the media and fans were quickly answered.
Lazio manager Roberto Mancini has publicly stated that Inter Milan are not as strong as the outside world thinks.
'Every team has its ups and downs, and one of the big reasons Inter Milan were able to beat Juventus and Roma was that they were not affected by European competition, but from this week onwards they had to face a two-pronged dilemma. ”
Mancini's statement was also seen by the media as a warm-up for the eleventh round of Serie A.
In this round, Inter Milan will travel south to Rome and visit the Stadio Olimpico to challenge Lazio.
With Lazio's current ranking, if Mancini is unable to improve his team's performance in a short period of time, the prestigious Serie A coach may also be in a difficult position.
But many media outlets have also supported Mancini's remarks.
Inter Milan used to wait for Juventus with leisure, but now the feng shui is changing, and Lazio is waiting for Inter Milan.
In addition, Mancini has expressed his strong interest in coaching Inter Milan many times before, but in the end Moratti still chose Gao Han, which makes the competition between the two coaches have a deeper meaning.
For the provocation from Manich, Alpine and Inter did not go to war.
After playing Sampdoria, the team went into preparation non-stop.
As Mancini said, playing on two fronts is also a big test for Inter Milan.
In midweek, Inter Milan welcomed Romania's Steaua Bucha at the Meazza Stadium.
Gao Han is no stranger to this team, and knows that the strength of this team is not weak, so Inter Milan did not dare to be careless, but only made slight adjustments in two or three local positions, and basically played with the main lineup.
Inter Milan are in Group C with the strongest average of the eight groups, and in addition to Inter Milan, there are also Hertha Berlin in the Bundesliga, Lens in Ligue 1, Steaua Bucharest in Romania, and the weakest team in Sweden, Halmsdas.
In the first round of the group stage, Hertha Berlin defeated Halmsdaz 1-0 away, and Steaua Bucharest beat Lens 4-0 at home.
Among them, the latter one surprised everyone in Gao Han and Inter Milan, and no one would have thought that the Bucharest Stars team would be able to perform so well and Lens would lose so badly.
Apparently stimulated by the first round of matches, the Bucharest Stars team also showed great vigor when they visited the Meazza Stadium, and there was a big upset in the posture, but Inter Milan played steadily and finally defeated the opponent with a score of 2-0 and won the first round.
Centre-forward Kruz, who started in place of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, was outstanding and scored a goal, Yaya Toure started in place of Figo, but his performance was mediocre, and Recoba also returned from injury and came off the bench in the second half, so he didn't do too well.
For Alpine and Inter Milan, Steaua Bucharest were just one of a team they met on a back-to-back campaign, and after the game, the Nerazzurri began to concentrate on the weekend's away game against Lazio.
He played two games a week, but Lazio had plenty of time to prepare, and Inter Milan did not dare to be careless.
Gao Han and the coaching staff also drew up a very detailed game plan, specifically arranging offensive tactics for Lazio's weaknesses and weaknesses, and specially rehearsed them before the game.
After the start of the game, Inter Milan dominated the opponents, pressed heavily and firmly controlled the situation on the field.
Lazio also retreated in an all-round way, as Gao Han expected, focusing on defensive counterattacks, leaving young players Pandev and Rocchi on loan from Inter Milan in the front, ready to counterattack at any time.
But even so, Inter Milan still seized the opportunity.
In the 31st minute of the game, Inter Milan finally launched a wave of attack.
Right-back Zanetti suddenly stepped forward and, after receiving a pass from Veron, moved to the left side of the penalty area with a big foot on the right side.
Cristiano Ronaldo got ahead of Lazio right-back Odor and headed the ball into the box, where Ibrahimovic slotted home to open the scoring for Inter.
But just as Ibrahimovic scored, referee Messina also blew the whistle!
…………
…………
"Foul?"
In front of the visiting coach's bench at the Olympic Stadium, Gao Han raised his arms in disbelief, feeling completely incomprehensible.
But the linesman's raised right hand and the referee's crisp whistle reminded everyone inside the Stadio Olimpico that it was a foul.
"Is there a mistake? Who fouled? How did you foul?" Gao Han asked the linesman in a loud voice.
The team has dominated the situation on the pitch for some time, but has never been able to threaten.
Seeing that the team was playing smoothly, Gao Han immediately adjusted, and used the skill card, and soon played a threatening attack, and scored a goal, but now it is said that it is a foul.
"Mr. Gao Han, I respect you very much, but I also hope that you can respect us. The linesman looked polite, but replied in a tough tone, "It was an indisputable foul." ”
"Who?" asked Gao Han.
"Cristiano Ronaldo, he nudged Otto before the jump, which already constituted a foul. The linesman replied.
"Is there one?"
"It's true, I've seen it with my own eyes. The linesman replied firmly.
Gao Han had nothing to say now, so he could only spread his hands and shake his head and walk back.
The field of play is changing rapidly, and when Cristiano Ronaldo jumped just now, he really didn't notice whether he pushed Otto, and it is difficult to refute it.
"Sergio, you check. Gao Han still didn't believe it.
When he jumped just now, Cristiano Ronaldo was faster, running in front, and Otto was behind, how to push?
But since the referee has made the decision, Inter Milan can only accept it.
Even if there is an objection, you have to wait until after the game to appeal, which is the rule.
If you rashly protest the referee now, I am afraid that you will be sent off the field by the referee, and it will be worth the loss.
What's more, Gao Han is confident that with the strength of Inter Milan, he can continue to strive for goals.
On the pitch, although Inter Milan also protested the decision, Cristiano Ronaldo repeatedly insisted that he did not have any physical contact with Odo, let alone push, but the referee still upheld the original decision.
After the game restarted, Inter Milan wasted a lot of time, and Gao Han asked the players to clean up and get back into the game.
The Nerazzurri soon organised another wave of attacks, with Lazio forced to retreat into the box.
Figo took the ball with his back in the middle, suddenly turned around and got rid of the defender, pushed the ball forward, and forced a breakthrough for Lazio central defender Dabo at the edge of the penalty area, burst into the big penalty area, and picked up a pass with his left foot in front of the goal.
At the edge of the small penalty area, Ibrahimovic blocked Lazio's Brazilian central defender Crribaly behind him and occupied the most advantageous position, facing Figo's pick-up pass, the two jumped almost at the same time, and Inter Milan seemed to see the goal coming.
But in the midst of this lightning and fire, the ball suddenly turned in a direction and flew to the periphery of the penalty area, which surprised everyone, especially when the two just landed, Ibrahimovic suddenly pushed away Kribari who was glued to him, slapped his right hand at the referee, and shouted: "Handball, he handball!"
The game was once again suspended by the referee's whistle.
However, Messina quickly ran into the penalty area and raised a yellow card towards Ibrahimovic, who was roaring, saying that the Swedish centre-forward had pushed Kribari to the ground.
This annoyed Ibrahimovic at this time.
"It was him handball, he slapped the ball with his hand during the aerial battle, he fouled it, how can you punish me?"
In the face of the aggressive Ibrahimovic, Messi couldn't stop backing away, but kept shaking his head and said: "I didn't see him foul, but I saw you push him to the ground." ”
"Oh my God, are you blind? You don't see this, does the ball fly out on its own for no reason?" Ibrahimovic was anxious and annoyed, pressing towards the referee.
Gao Han was also very angry on the sidelines, but he was more anxious, pointing at Ibrahimovic, "Stop him!"
At the critical moment, Figo rushed up from behind, lazily hugged Ibrahimovic, and prevented the Swedish center from continuing to attack the referee, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
Messina is also obviously worried, and the pressure on him from the high school striker is really not small.
Ibrahimovic, who was hugged to the ground by Figo, was still yelling at him indignantly, "He handballed, it was really his handball, this guy is a liar!"
But there was a flood of boos from the entire Olympic Stadium.
This is the away game, and not even one person will support Inter Milan, on the contrary, they will only think that Inter Milan is making trouble.
Gao Han stood on the sidelines, his brows furrowed.
'Ibra should be right, it's probably handball. Pep Guardiola said.
Looking at the past from their point of view, it is not very clear, and only the parties know how to do it.
But from a common sense point of view, Ibrahimovic grabbed a good position, Kribari obviously couldn't grab the landing point, but the ball suddenly flew outside the box, which I am afraid can only be explained by handball.
Just now a goal was ruled invalid, and now it's a handball, and if a penalty is not awarded, it will be forgotten, and a yellow card will be returned......
"That's not quite right!" Cantarero said worriedly.
Why can't Gao Han understand it?
