225 Pinnacle Milan Derby (3)
"Fans and friends, the third round of the Serie A key match, that is, the first "Milan derby" of the season, will start immediately, let's walk into the game together"
With Zhan Jun's commentary, the screen was cut to the San Siro Stadium in Milan, Italy. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
On the San Siro pitch, players from both sides have walked out of the players' tunnel one after another, and the game will start immediately.
"Toot,"
With the referee's whistle, the game officially began.
"The game has officially begun, let's take a look at the starting line-ups for both sides", says Petta!
AC Milan starting line-up: Romelu Lukaku, Chen Long, Gross (forward), Boli, Sanchez, Ventura (midfielder), Khedira, Carvajal, Varane, Gomez (defender), Steggen (goalkeeper)
Inter starting line-up: Icardi, Gabigor (forward), Douglas ~ Costa, Medel, Melo, Oscar, Brozovic (midfielder), Miranda, Murillo, Thornton, Yuki Nagatomo (defender), goalkeeper: 1-Handanovic
At the same moment as Peta kept browsing the starting lineups of the two sides, his expression gradually tended to be shocked, "Oh, God, Chen Long is starting, I don't know what that means?" However, it is really unbelievable news"
At the same time, the fans who paid attention to this game were also completely exploded, Chen Long started, which is definitely surprising news, among these fans, naturally the most popular Chinese fans, Chen Long once again brought them a surprise.
In addition, in Milan's starting lineup, the name of the team's captain Rodriguez did not appear, and the specific reason is unknown, after all, the starting lineup has just been announced, and it is estimated that the reason may be known soon, but for Milan, Rodriguez's absence will have a great impact on Milan.
Poli, who replaced Rodriguez, was the team's starting midfielder last season, before Sanchez arrived, but it is clear that he is much worse than Rodriguez, especially his passing ability.
On the court, the two sides entered a white-hot stage from the beginning.
Once Lukaku got the ball, he stepped up with it, and then Inter's left wing-back Gabigor scurried over.
Lukaku didn't shake off the first time and was blocked.
The two collided very violently, during which Inter midfielder Melo used a little trick to make Lukaku stumble and the ball ran out.
At this time, the ball is uncontrolled and becomes a homeless ball.
Miranda then stretched out her leg to control the ball, and Lukaku wanted to use his explosiveness to get the first shot, so he stepped forward quickly.
Miranda, of course, wanted to protect the ball, so he was kicked over by Lukaku, who did not hesitate to run with the ball when he got it.
"Toot!"
"Huh? In the first minute of the opening game, the two sides started a fierce scramble, and Lukaku received a yellow card! It was only 27 seconds into the game, and Lukaku had already received a yellow card, the fastest yellow card in Serie A this season! ”
Lukaku was furious and spoke to the referee.
The referee shook his finger: "Give me a little less." ”
It seems that the referee is going to strictly control the physical contact between the two sides.
Lukaku got a yellow card, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous when defending, he could only concentrate on attacking, Lukaku had a strong ability to get the ball, so Poli often stepped in to assist Lukaku, and he didn't leave too many gaps, so he could still hold on to the sidelines and not collapse.
Mourinho was also extremely annoyed, at the beginning of this game, he lost so much combat power, and the next game was difficult.
What to do? Mourinho looked to the left, Chen Long is playing better and better in training, which is why he is willing to risk starting him in this game, but is it really okay for Gross on the right and Ventura?
Or should Poli use his body and speed advantage to temporarily assume the core position, and pass Sanchez's position to both sides?
Stretched.
When there is Lukaku, everything is easy to say, Lukaku is limited, it is difficult to play, Mourinho made up his mind, during the winter break, he must strengthen the midfield lineup, I heard that there are several players in the youth team who are good, but they should try.
In the Beijing CCTV studio, Zhan Jun frowned: "In this game, both sides are not very open, it feels very tight, and it can't be relaxed." ”
On the field, Chen Long retreated to the midfield line, and when observing the situation, he suddenly found that Ventura had broken the ball, and then turned back and prepared to rush to the front.
Ventura took the ball and broke along the baseline, and then passed the ball to Lukaku, who was used to the routine of breaking through the half court on the sideline and then going deep into the middle, and soon ran forward on the side.
This time, it tested the real tactics of Inter Milan in this game.
Their midfield and backfield actually completed the retreat in a short period of time!
First Lukaku was slightly delayed by Miranda,
Lukaku tried to break through after regaining possession, but found that the opponent was close to being fully positioned, so he could only turn around and knock the ball to Khedira who ran up.
Khedira feigned the ball in the middle but failed to attract the opposition's attention, only Inter's midfielder Melo stepped forward to block his path to the middle.
Khedira didn't hesitate and slammed the ball straight to the right.
It was Gross who came up with the ball.
After Gross got the ball, he observed the situation and was ready to break through the ball, however, Chen Long hinted to him from a long distance that the ball would be done by himself.
The ball came out of the middle at this time, and Chen Long couldn't complete the attack 100%.
Try side lane infiltration first.
Gross understood, Chen Long wanted to use his own speed advantage, and then began to attack, in front of him was Oscar, Gross easily and comfortably used a frequency conversion rhythm, past Oscar, and then, ran to the bottom line.
Inter left-back Japanese player Yu Nagatomo stuck his foot on it and walked next to Gross.
Gross was entangled when he broke through, and when he reached the baseline, he lost control of the ball, and Nagatomo didn't hesitate to clear the ball off the touchline.
"In terms of the situation, Milan is still attacking fiercely, but Inter's defense is not chaotic at all, the defensive formation is not pulled, and Milan has encountered problems."
How should this dilemma be solved?
Jose Mourinho didn't come up with a solution, and the players on the pitch couldn't do anything about it.
The only benefit is that Inter Milan only scored two goals in the first two rounds, so their attacking line is actually not good, this point, they are still far behind Milan, of course, Milan is basically relying on Lukaku alone this season, such as Gross and Martial on the bench have not yet opened in the league, as for Chen Long, although he scored two goals, but those two goals are amazing, but for Milan, it can only be regarded as "icing on the cake", however, obviously Inter Milan They are worse than Milan attack.
Therefore, when the Milan players played in a tight game, Inter did not take advantage of the opportunity to score.
Time passed quickly, and the two sides attacked each other to no avail, and Inter temporarily changed their tactics.
They began to retreat.
After all, in terms of the overall strength of the two teams now, Inter Milan is inferior to Milan.
However, Mourinho also understands that retreating at this time is not to defend passively, but to take the initiative to hold Milan's two offensive points.
Mourinho stood up: "These bastards, they are here to ask for a draw?" ”
Mana was dumbfounded: "It's unlikely, who will ask for a draw in the derby?" ”
"It's about the top of the list, you say?"
After the first two rounds of the league, Juventus and Milan have won two consecutive victories, while Milan is temporarily at the top of the list with the number of goals, so this Milan derby is, to a certain extent, also the top battle.
Mourinho looked back: "What if Conte wants to play a defensive counter-attack? ”
"If they don't attack, then we attack, anyway, we can only win, no way, I'll let them attack?"
"Go ahead, you can only attack." Mourinho nodded in agreement with Varia's statement.
On the pitch, Lukaku quickly saw Mana's gesture and immediately signaled to his team-mates to attack.
Although Inter is on the 442 lineup, they don't actually pay attention to the wings.
Their defensive approach is to have four defenders spread out in parallel, two defenders go to the front of the box to open up the layer, then two attacking midfielders form a second line of defense in front, the defense penetrates the middle, and finally the two strikers interfere with the flow of the ball in the back of the field at the front.
The intention of this kind of defense is very obvious, that is, not to give set-pieces on the wings, not to fight on the wings, if you can rush into my dense defensive area to score, you have the ability to consider yourself unlucky.
This is a typical way of playing when a weak team meets a strong team.
In this situation, boos erupted on the court.
Where the two fans were closest, the Milan fans shouted: "Your team is too cowardly, this is not what a derby should be!" ”
"Do you want to care? We just need to win, whatever it takes! ”
"Are you all?"
"If you can't win the ball, you're a man?"
The opponent is all cowering, either by passing the ball to tear through the opponent's defense, or by relying on personal breakthroughs to create opportunities, there is no other way.
Lukaku seems to be very painful, every time he breaks through, as long as the opponent adds a confrontation, he has to shrink back, if there is another yellow card, it will be a big luck.
Mourinho looked sideways, Conte sat firmly in the coach's seat, and couldn't help but be angry: "Old treacherous and cunning! ”
In fact, for Inter Milan coach Conte, Mourinho is no stranger at all, the two have played against each other in the Premier League many times before, and the record can be regarded as a blessing for the victory or defeat, and Conte's tactics have a characteristic, that is, defense, speaking of which, it is a bit similar to Mourinho, after all, Mourinho has the reputation of the ancestor of bus tactics, and now the two have played in Serie A, which is really destined.
Conte's coaching ability is second to none in world football, with Antonio Conte playing for Lecce's youth team in 1985 and making his Serie A debut that year. After joining Juventus, he served as captain of the field for a long time due to his leadership skills. Antonio Conte as a player was a solid barrier in Juventus' midfield.
Conte began his coaching career at Siena in 2005 as an assistant coach to Luigi Decanio. In this position, Conte humbly learned the skills and art of commanding his players as a manager.
On the evening of April 4, 2016, Beijing time, Chelsea officially announced that the current Italian national team coach Antonio Conte will serve as the team's manager from next season, and the two sides signed a three-year contract with an annual salary of 5 million pounds.
During his three years in charge of Chelsea, Antonio Conte led Chelsea to one Premier League FA Cup, one Community Shield and the Champions League, and a return to the final.
In June 2022, Beijing time, Inter Milan officially announced that Conte would serve as the team's head coach and the two sides signed a three-year contract.
In fact, when the time comes to 2020, with the strong recovery of Serie A, those big-name players and top coaches who are active in football, under normal circumstances, the first choice is Serie A, in addition to the Premier League, La Liga, and Bundesliga, however, the trend of choosing to go to the Chinese Super League is also increasing day by day.
………………
If it was before this game, Inter would have been torn to pieces if they dared to use this method against Milan.
Because Milan's midfielder Rodriguez is known for being good at passing.
Milan itself is very good at playing positional battles, with a tall center Chen Long, and a midfielder who can pass the ball, and he is not afraid of the opponent shrinking at all.
But now...... The person who can pass the ball best in the midfield can't play at all.
It's not that Ventura and Sanchez's passing is not good, but that without Rodriguez, the order of the midfield is broken, the system is missing, and the tactics are naturally unable to be executed, after all, this is the tactical system that Milan has been running in for a long time.
On the pitch, every time the ball is passed, it will stop for a while, and then it can be passed, and the result of this hesitation alone can vary greatly.
Closer to the midfield, just ask for a Polly foot and the football won't move.
Inter's No. 9 scorer Icardi, as soon as the ball reaches his feet, he will step forward to press, every time, Poli will habitually retreat, make sure to occupy the position, before passing the ball, the whole Milan was originally a well-run machine, but it was replaced with an unsuitable gear, causing the machine to run jamming.
Lukaku, who was standing in the box, was in a hurry.
Again, the ball was at Lukaku's feet, and Lukaku passed the ball out.
"Gross, Gross doesn't stop the ball and directly divides the ball, the ball goes to the feet of Sanchez, Sanchez wants to break through, fails, he protects the ball and passes back!"
"Return to Ventura! Ventura, he's retreating again, huh? Ventura, turnover, break, break from Medel! ”
On the pitch, Medelz broke the ball and immediately wanted to rush forward.
At this time, Polly finally came to his senses, and immediately defended on the spot, squeezed in two steps, and shoveled on the spot.
Just this one tackle bought the team time to defend.
Milan players and Inter go hand in hand! (To be continued.) )
