The second half began.

Benitez stared inside the field.

He has his own theory of judgment and what kind of tactics Aston Villa adopted at the beginning of the second half, which to some extent represents the purpose and attitude of Aston Villa in the second half.

If Aston Villa attack at the start of the second half, it means that Fang Jue is not giving up.

While that doesn't mean Aston Villa have the ability to turn the tables around, it is an aggressive tactical attitude.

If Aston Villa did not rush to attack after the start of the second half, they defended solidly.

In Benitez's view, this shows that Fang Jue is very pragmatic.

Fang Jue knew that the defeat of this game was decided, and he didn't want to turn the tables on such a whimsical thing, this was to stabilize the defense, don't lose again, don't lose too badly.

And if you can score another goal in the second half and lose only two goals, it will look a lot better.

Even if they don't score and lose 4-1, Aston Villa's performance after 0-4 is not too ugly.

In this group, Inter Milan is the strongest, Aston Villa want to fight for the right to qualify for the second place in the group, the goal will not be Inter Milan, they lost this game, mainly because of the face, in fact, it is still acceptable.

Benitez is a delicate, relatively silent coach.

He likes to ponder these things, and that's his coaching experience.

Aston Villa did not press out to attack after the start of the second half, but based on defense.

This relieved Benitez that he would not admit that he had a shadow of fear of the other party.

Rather, if Aston Villa accept the loss, then the second half will be relatively lull and Inter Milan can play relatively easily.

At present, in the league, Inter Milan is only ranked third in the league, and there is a lot of pressure to compete for the Serie A title.

If this game doesn't need to be too strenuous for Inter Milan to focus on the weekend's league fixture:

Before Benitez came to Inter Milan, Inter Milan had dominated Serie A for many years, and after he came, Inter Milan lost the Serie A title, which was unacceptable to the fans and himself.

Of course, Benitez would also like his team to score again if possible.

With Aston Villa unwilling to play again, Inter Milan are hopeful of continuing to extend their scores.

Soon, though, Benitez frowned.

Aston Villa did not show aggression in attack, but they were unusually tenacious in defence.

Sneijder is at the heart of Inter's midfield and he is heavily defended by Aston Villa.

Aston Villa were very smart when it came to defending Sneijder.

They will choose to strangle Sneijder in midfield.

Because of fouls in the midfield position, cards are generally not given. Plus the foul is not that kind of malicious.

The aim was simply to keep Sneijder in possession easily, or to force him to lose possession.

For example, pulling the jersey.

Knock down Sneijder.

And even if it's a tackle, it's a relatively clean tackle that doesn't deliberately aim to hurt people.

In addition, Inter Milan has a large lead, and the referee will be more tolerant of Aston Villa's fouls.

Therefore, after the start of the second half, as long as Sneijder has the ball, whether it is Clement or Ballack, he will rush up to him to close press and defend.

They were aggressive, but the scale was well controlled and there was no intent to hurt.

In this way, Sneijder was violated one after another, but the referee only gave a verbal warning and did not mean to play a card.

Ten minutes into the second half, Sneijder looked very awkward in the midfield, he controlled the rhythm of Inter Milan's attack, he was always fouled here, the rhythm was disrupted, Inter's attack was also intermittent, there was no coherence, and there was no threat at all.

Sixty minutes into the second half, the score was still 4-1, and Inter Milan was ahead.

Sneijder played awkwardly and was very uncomfortable to defend.

Gradually, he himself was a little slack, he was already 4-1, the victory was in his hands, and he was very uncomfortable by the opponent's rough defense, so Sneijder also began to fish.

Somebody came up for a foul and he went down and got a free kick.

Although the free-kick in midfield was not threatening, the clock was ticking and the tempo of the game slowed down.

Gradually, the rest of Inter's players began to come to terms with the slow pace of the game.

They even have a feeling that Aston Villa have no intention of scoring goals and are only thinking about not conceding a goal.

It's like two people fighting, after one person is beaten half to death, keep the final bottom line, if you don't come to beat me, then everything is easy to say, if you continue to beat me, I will fight with you.

For example, the players at Inter Milan felt the 'tacit understanding' attitude expressed by the other side.

It's like boiling a frog in warm water.

Sixty-five minutes into the game, the score remained unchanged and the midfield was relatively intense, but, overall, the pace of the game was slow.

This also displeased Lineker on the commentary bench, "Aston Villa seemed to accept the score of 1-4, they showed no aggressiveness. ”

'Aston Villa have been scared, they are all about not conceding a goal now, it was a dull second half. The Italian narrator Gennaro said that his words were impatient, but his tone was impassioned and proud.

……

Sixty-sixth minute.

Sneijder was knocked to the ground again by Ballack near the center circle.

Referee Skomeina still didn't play a card, but only verbally warned Ballack.

Benitez was angry at first, thinking that the referee's whistle was too soft in the second half, but at this point, he is used to it and no longer protests.

At this moment, Benitez is even thinking about the Serie A match at home to Sampdoria at the weekend.

Sampdoria is a traditional powerhouse in Serie A, a spoiler, and when facing a strong team, it is not at all frightened.

It's not going to be an easy game to play and Benitez has to plan for it.

A free-kick from Inter.

Zanetti drives the ball to the front court.

The football was pushed out by Senderos.

Milner got ahead of Biabiani and passed the ball to Clement.

Young Brazilian player Coutinho wanted to come up and cut Clemente's ball.

But his body and Clement are not a heavyweight at all.

Clement just went sideways and separated Coutinho from football.

Clement then quickly got the ball out and passed it to Deisler.

Deisler flicked his left foot and adjusted slightly to avoid Stankovic's up-and-go.

Up to this point, everything was normal.

Then I saw Deisler pick up his right foot and pass the ball straight away.

The ball crossed the halfway line and flew straight to Inter's half.

"Fight back! Aston Villa's counterattack! After the start of the second half of the game, He Wei, who had been wilting for more than 20 minutes, suddenly became excited and shouted.

Gareth Bell picked up speed on the left side of his own half, quickly crossed the half, and received a long diagonal pass from Deisler.

"Stop him!" Inter defender Lucio shouted.

McConn, who had assisted past halftime, was desperately chasing back.

Zanetti also pounced on it from the diagonal line.

He was going to join forces with McConn and stop Bell.

Then Zanetti saw that something was wrong, because McCone was chasing Bale, but his speed was obviously not able to catch up, and he was pulled further and further away by the Welsh boy, and now the distance between the two had been pulled two or three meters.

"Speed! That's the speed, Bell's speed, McCone can't catch up with him at all! ”

"It's too fast! Gareth. Bale, he was almost at the same time as McConn, and he was still dribbling the ball, but McConn just couldn't catch up with him! ”

There was a boiling in the commentary seat, and in the dull game, there was a sudden thunderstorm, especially the speed duel in this counterattack, which was so exciting that it made people's hearts beat faster.

……

"Aston Villa's counterattack is coming!"

Zanetti saw that McCone really couldn't catch up, and he didn't care about scolding, he gritted his teeth, and the 37-year-old Argentine veteran accelerated desperately and met him from the side.

He knew that he couldn't fight for speed, but he would grit his teeth and try his best to intercept this guy desperately.

At this moment, Bell swiped his left foot and accelerated.

He didn't give Zanetti a chance to get close at all, and accelerated directly past the Inter captain's side with the ball.

"Breakthrough!"

If you look down from the stands of the Meaza Stadium, you can see a spectacular scene.

Gareth Bale, dressed in a red jersey, was racing with the ball.

Behind him was McConn, who was in hot pursuit.

Beside him was Zanetti, who desperately wanted to chase back and paste up.

In front of him was Lucio, who pounced diagonally to intercept him.

Three Inter defenders, three interceptors in the front, middle and back to chase that touch of red.

……

The three of them chased and intercepted, but they couldn't stop Bale and let him into the left side of the penalty area.

"It's in the restricted area!"

Lucio approached.

Bale made a gesture to shoot.

Lucio didn't dare to slack off and rushed up to block the shot.

However......

Bale's shot was fake, and he slammed the ball with his right foot.

Take another half step yourself.

Just dodged Lucio's tackle.

Then, he did not give the pursuers any chance.

He looked up at Cesar, who was in a hurry, and volleyed vigorously with his feet, but the moment his foot touched the football, he turned his powerful volley into a low shot in the upper corner!

The soccer ball rolls fast, clinging to the turf.

Skimming past Cesar's feet.

The Inter Milan goalkeeper just subconsciously stretched out his hand, and he didn't even have time to make a pounce.

The football swooped and swooped into the net!

In the 67th minute of the game, Gareth Bell was at a gallop, from McConn, Bale and Lucio's pursuit and interception, he rode alone and scored a low shot after connecting many people, and Aston Villa 2-4 Inter Milan.
