Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Unhappy Balotelli
Looking at Zhang Yuan's back, Balotelli was so angry that he was angry, and he was more popular than others, and finally he and Zhang Yuan had a chance to compete, but Zhang Yuan was now ahead of him, although the team was still ahead, but he himself was behind. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Can't fall behind, why should he fall behind Zhang Yuan, he feels that he is now younger than Zhang Yuan, and there is nothing else that is inferior to Zhang Yuan.
The attention of the two Inter coaches made Balotelli's self-confidence burst, and he no longer thought that he was a little worse than Zhang Yuan.
Mourinho's worries became a reality, Zhang Yuan really hit the penalty area, Cordoba still didn't block it, but after Zhang Yuan scored a goal, he was not so worried.
He thought that with the experience of McConn, Córdoba, and Cambiaso, it would be difficult for Zhang Yuan to make some surprise attacks, and the three of them could completely prevent Zhang Yuan.
Zhang Yuan's header also reminded Lu Teng, grandma's, I should have thought of it, I want to change to a double center tactic, Zhang Yuan goes to the front, and Farfan goes to the middle to play the front midfield.
Lu Teng said that he would change it, and immediately passed the message to the players on the field and changed the formation.
It's a pity that Ruten's opponent is championship coach Jose Mourinho, Mourinho saw Luten's tactical change and scoffed, so he gave tactical instructions to Cambiaso and Muntari in the middle, staring at the middle to death, and at the same time asked McCone and Zanetti to press forward a little.
Inter Milan can play as a double striker because their full-backs are strong and can go up and down, Schalke 04 can also use this trick in the Bundesliga, Pandel and Raphinha can meet the requirements for assists, but they certainly can't have as many chances when facing Inter.
Especially after Mourinho asked the two fullbacks to press forward, Inter Milan firmly suppressed Schalke 04, and Rakitic could only say that Schalke 04 would not be pressed so the field.
The long distance of the long pass from the back makes it easy to give Inter defenders time to prepare in advance.
The middle couldn't be penetrated, the full-backs were suppressed and couldn't come forward to assist, and Ruten's tactical adjustment was in vain.
On 72 minutes, Mourinho made another change, Quaresma replaced striker Adriano and adjusted the two-centre-forward formation to three forwards, with Ibrahimovic playing as a central striker, Balotelli on the left and Quaresma on the right.
Adriano's performance today was okay, Mourinho replaced him mainly for tactical purposes, Ibrahimovic in the center of the position also put a lot of pressure on the opponent, Balotelli and Quaresma on the wing are very good in breaking through, and the passing skills are also very good, and they can make a fuss on the side.
Let Zanetti and McCone recycle and insert it to a limited extent, he still doesn't worry about the back, and one more person on the back line is the strength of one person.
Ruten was once again stuck in the face of Mourinho's change of formation, and he was faced with a choice between the two midfielders who would continue to focus on the centre or on the wings.
If it is an ordinary team, he must defend the middle, and the cross from the side may not work, but Inter Milan is different, they have a high school striker Ibrahimovic in the middle, and the impact is very strong, which is not something that ordinary defenders can bear.
However, he gave up the middle to defend the wing, and Rakitic in the middle alone could not limit Inter Milan's attack in the middle.
The weak team is so entangled in playing the strong team, and it is your luck to win the bus, but not every team is so lucky, which is why the weak team in the league will not ******** the reason why the bus is not in the face of the strong team, and the risk factor of the bus is also high.
What's more, Schalke 04 is now the lagging side, not the leading side, and there is no reason to put a bus in front of the goal.
After struggling for a while, Rüten finally chose to hold the middle, and the wing could only rely on Raphinha and Pandel, anyway, it would definitely not be a thought to insert an assist.
Balotelli prefers to play in the center forward position, but the first brother in the center forward position of Inter Milan is Ibrahimovic, and he can't grab Ibrahimovic, so he can only go to the left wing.
Fortunately, he is no stranger to this position, and he is completely competent, but today is different, he has to score, Zhang Yuan also plays the winger position, and when he scores, it makes no sense that he will not score when he plays this position.
The bet between him and Zhang Yuan can't be lost, this is the first time that two people are competing head-to-head on the field, and he doesn't want to be embarrassed.
Raphinha also struggled to defend Balotelli, mainly because Balotelli has good physical fitness, and his dribbling ability is not as perverted as Zhang Yuan, but his passing skills are better, and Raphinha mainly wants to prevent Balotelli's impact and passing to the penalty area.
But after a long time, he found that Balotelli basically did two things, the first was to break through him with the ball, and most of the directions were to cut the penalty area, and the second thing was to impact the penalty area, and he was very reluctant to stay on the side.
Find Balotelli's pulse, Raphinha is much easier to defend, Balotelli is not easy to fight him alone, Raphinha is fast and flexible, Balotelli is fast, but the two of them are definitely half a catty, maybe Raphinha will be faster.
As for Balotelli to attack the penalty area, Raphinha stuck to him, and Captain Bolton sandwiched Balotelli, making small moves when necessary.
After changing formations, Balotelli's performance was very bad, playing in the middle of the midfield, Ibrahimovic often switched positions with him, covering him, not easy to lose the ball, but when he reached the side, the limitations of breaking through were relatively large, and he also beat himself to death and conceded too many goals.
Mourinho was so angry on the sidelines that he was already expressionless, why set up a winger, it is to let you cross on the wing, and there is a limit to how much you can change positions in the middle, otherwise I will let you play as a center forward.
Mourinho sent a message to Balotelli on the field, "Boy, if you play like this again, you can get out of here!"
Balotelli knew that the madman was unhappy, he relented, he was not afraid of the madman, he just wanted to score, he had to stay on the field, how could he score if he didn't stay on the field!
Ibrahimovic is also very upset with Balotelli, grandma, tell you to pass to Lao Tzu, you play there alone, is it interesting?
Taking advantage of a Schalke 04 goal-kick opportunity, Ibrahimovic called for Balotelli.
"Mario, if you kick like this again, I'll beat you!"
Balotelli gave him a blank look and ran away, and Ibrahimovic thought Balotelli had listened.
Who knew that it was his words that greatly stimulated Balotelli, grandma, you don't let me do this, I want to do this, is Ibrahimovic amazing?
In the 81st minute, he forced a cross-cut after winning the ball on the side, Raphinha stuck to him, Balotelli couldn't shake off Raphinha, and forced his foot to hit the goal on the right corner of the Schalke 04 penalty area, needless to say, Raphinha kicked down quickly, and simply blocked his shot this time.
Ernst won the ball, and without saying a word, he drove directly to the half of Inter Milan, Kuranyi pressed Burdisso's header back, Zhang Yuan and Cordoba started at the same time, and quickly chased the football.
Cordoba is very fast, Zhang Yuan is faster than him, but in order to get rid of Cordoba to the bottom, Zhang Yuan took a big step, and the two of them staged a speed rush in the half of Inter Milan, and everyone else was a spectator.
The fans of Inter Milan, the fans of Schalke 04 who came from afar, the players on the bench of Mourinho and Inter Milan, the players on the bench of Luten and Schalke 04, all stood up, sweating in their palms, can Zhang Yuan score?
Cesar was very smart, he predicted Zhang Yuan's speed, he didn't choose to attack at the first time, he didn't want to give Zhang Yuan a chance to shoot, but waited.
As soon as the ball slowed down, Cesar attacked, Zhang Yuan chose to pass Cesar at close range, he was not sure of the hanging door at this time, but he was sure of passing Cesar.
Tripping the ball, but an unfortunate thing happened, there was a small hole on the court, the ball bounced, Zhang Yuan was not prepared for this situation, it happened to be the node where he tripped the ball over Cesar, the ball was not thrown out with the instep of his foot but touched out with his calf neck, and the strength was great.
Zhang Yuan chased quickly, the ball was big, and the surrounding audience definitely didn't know what happened at Zhang Yuan's feet, only that the ball was big.
But Zhang Yuan still chased the ball near the bottom line, didn't have time to think, shot, just go to the goal, after shooting, he also lost his center of gravity and fell outside the bottom line, staring at the ball.
Cordoba's speed is really not covered, due to Zhang Yuan's mistake over Cesar, time was delayed, Cordoba quickly recovered the goal, and caught the goal line to fall to the ground and sliding the ball to fish the ball. (To be continued.) )
