In the home team's dressing room at the Meazza Stadium, the heat is rising. The eleven players on the field www.biquge.info pen & fun > pavilion all sat inside, humming and panting. Even Cesar, as a goalkeeper, is no exception.

The first half ended 0-0, but that didn't mean it was a dull game. On the contrary, the pace of the game was very fast, and the situation was tense, one after another, without the slightest relaxation. This has also led to a very serious physical drain on the players, especially for several veterans within the Inter Milan squad.

"A lot of players are having fitness problems. Mourinho's chief assistant Luis Faria observed the situation of the players and walked back to the coaching area to report the situation to Mourinho.

Jose Mourinho, on the other hand, grim as he found that United were more difficult than he had imagined.

Like Jose Mourinho, Luis Faria has a university diploma in sports and has no first-tier club experience. In 2001, after Mourinho became the head coach of the Portuguese Super League, he immediately hired Luis Faria as the team's physical trainer and game video analyst, and since then, the two have begun an eight-year cooperation.

As Mourinho's right-hand man, Luis Faria followed Mourinho to Porto, Chelsea and Inter Milan, winning multiple league and cup titles. What he does best is fitness and player body control.

"The rate of attrition is faster than expected, we can't control the rhythm at all, it has become a war of attrition!" Louis Faria said with a helpless look and a little anger at the same time.

"How long can it last?" Mourinho asked with a cold face.

"The second half lasts for another 20 minutes at most, and if you have more, there will be problems. Louis Faria replied.

Mourinho closed his eyes and didn't say anything, but everyone could tell that he was distressed. The situation on the field is very deadlocked, and neither side has been able to break this deadlock, and neither is willing to make adjustments and changes casually.

"Or shall we keep a draw?" suggested Louis Faria.

………………

At the same time, in the away team's locker room, the players are also panting, although there is food rich in fairy qi provided by Zeng Cheng in the past few days, but after all, they have eaten for a short time, plus they have experienced four high-intensity games in the last nine days, and now after another half of the game, everyone is very tired.

Although everyone was tired, the atmosphere was very different.

"The boss asked me to tell everyone that he was very satisfied with everyone's performance in the first half, and asked everyone to keep up the good work and kill Inter Milan, and he will prepare for the party for us again!"

Although it was conveyed by Mike Ferran, the news still made everyone in the locker room excited.

The lively Evra was the first to speak: "Don't worry, boss, we won't let him down!"

Ronaldo also immediately said: "Yes, Mike, you tell the boss that Inter Milan is dead!"

Rio Ferdinand said coolly: "We must let Inter Milan die at the Meaza Stadium!"

……

The players all looked excited, excited and scrappy.

Manager Alex Ferguson walked out at this point, carrying a tactical sketchpad with him.

"Alright, all quiet!" Ferguson glared at the restless players, and only after everyone had calmed down did he speak again, "We did a very good job of pressing in the first half, especially against Zanetti and Stankovic, it was in place. ”

Everyone in the dressing room looked at Ferguson and listened to him. They know very well that if they don't behave well at this time, they will definitely be blown up by the old man's hair dryer.

'The centre-back Zivo had a yellow card, he became cautious, it was a chance, we ignored it in the first half, we had to make the most of it in the second half!'

"I won't say much about the defensive issues, the position, the help and the response must be done well, Edwin should pay more attention in front of the goal, command the defense and stand more. ”

After Van der Sar was named, he nodded heavily at the manager.

"Another point, in the second half we have to be calm and patient, the situation in the first half was in our favor, and we continued to play like this in the second half, we can't be in a hurry, pay attention to the timing!"

Although Ferguson didn't say any timing, everyone knew in their hearts that he would be watching from the sidelines. When the time comes, Manchester United will seize the opponent's loopholes and fight to the death!

"Rest assured, this game is still under our control," Ferguson summed up quietly and confidently.

………………

After fifteen minutes of play, the two sides were back on the pitch.

'It was clear that neither manager made any substitutions at half-time. ”

The commentator was analysing the changes between the two sides in the second half, but found that nothing had changed. The tactics and players have not changed much, which directly leads to the situation not changing much. The second half of the two sides continued the situation of the first half, and the situation was still stalemate. The rhythm is very fast, the two sides fight fiercely, the ball is transferred frequently, and the two sides go back and forth against each other. But it has never been able to create many threatening opportunities.

The clock ticks by.

Start with forty-five minutes, jump into fifty minutes, jump into sixty minutes......

Neither side seemed to be moving.

Fans watching the game in action gradually realised that the left side of the United was clearly becoming more and more active, and began to create several dangerous attacks.

But comparatively speaking, Inter Milan's trident is sleepwalking in front. No one pulled the side, no one ran the position, and there was not even the slightest spark of passion.

As their stamina wore off, Zanetti and Cambiaso's ability to run dropped a lot, and their protection on the wings weakened.

In this case, once Patrice Evra and O'Shea, the two full-backs who are almost used by Alex Ferguson as a full-back, are inserted, and Cristiano Ronaldo is actively pulling the side, it is easy to form a two-on-one situation on the side of the ball.

Seeing that the team's defense and formation were leaky, Mourinho immediately asked the love general Marcheni to warm up after entering the 60 minutes.

Five minutes later, in the 66th minute, Inter Milan made their first substitution of the game. Midfielder Marchini replaces striker Adriano.

Adriano had only one shot on goal in the whole game, and he was very bad, and he was no longer the scoring machine of the year.

Marchioni's arrival also heralded a tactical change for Inter Milan. From the diamond-shaped position of the 442 midfield in the opening game, it switched to 433, with Macioni and Stankovic pulling to the wing, and Ibrahimovic alone at the front.

As soon as he saw Macheni come on the bench, Ferguson, who had been sitting on the bench, got up from the ground, rushed to the sidelines, waved his hand gestures, and shouted loudly at the Manchester United players on the pitch, and he was also adjusting the situation of Manchester United. And all the United players are aware that the time has finally come for Alex Ferguson, who spoke at half-time.

'Jose Mourinho made the first substitution of the game. When Macioni quickly walked up to the front line and appeared on the left side of the team's front after shaking hands with Adriano and patting his shoulders on the TV, the TV commentator immediately began to analyse Inter's substitution, "It is clear that Mourinho has realized that the tactical play of 442 has lost its effect, especially when Manchester United also have four players in midfield, and must actively open up the wing passage." ”

"It's certainly a good choice to take the sleepwalking Adriano and replace it with Marcheni, after all, Manchester United have always had the advantage on the flanks so far in the game. ”

"It seems that Mourinho still wants to give it a go and win this game!"

The TV screen changed again, and Ferguson was seen waving his hands on the sidelines and directing the players on the pitch. Although I couldn't hear what he was shouting, and it was hard to make out what he was saying from his gestures, it was not difficult to tell from his excited look that he was asking the team to make a hard shot.

After the change of formation, Inter Milan's wing attack was alive. Marchini's first touch of the ball formed a dribble, stopping the ball and smashing past O'Shea to form a break down the left of Inter Milan and a cross.

In the big penalty area, Ibrahimovic still fought for the first place under the left and right clamps of Ferdinand and Evans, and the header returned to the front of the big penalty area.

The shot was powerful, but the angle was too square, and Van der Sar steadily picked the ball into his arms.

"The first attack after the substitution, Inter Milan played a threat!"

The entire Meazza stadium was also cheered with deafening cheers. It didn't result in a goal, but it was a good sign.

It's good news for Inter Milan fans at home, but not for Manchester United fans travelling away. Everyone was very nervous at this moment, and even many people wondered in their hearts, Mourinhoti has been replaced, why hasn't Ferguson reacted yet?

Ivanka, who was beside Zeng Cheng, also whispered to Zeng Cheng: "Should we also be replaced?"

Inter Milan tasted the sweetness and began to press up, using Ibrahimovic as the arrow, to lay siege to Manchester United's goal, and the situation was very tense.

Zeng Cheng shook his head and said to Ivanka: "Change or not, there are risks!"

Substitutions are a double-edged sword in themselves, and who's to say it will work?

But it can be clearly seen that after Inter Milan made a threat, they pressed up again, and Manchester United retreated a little. (To be continued.) )
