After retiring from the Frankie Stadium, Inter Milan welcomed Bologna at home - Bologna's strength has dropped a lot, especially after Signoli's retirement, Moretti, Zaccardo, Zanchi and other main players have transferred away, which has also greatly affected their results, and now they are only in 15th place in 10 rounds of league games with only 3 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses......

Bologna's veteran goalkeeper Pagliuca had played for Inter Milan for a long time, and when he appeared at the Meazza stadium, he still won the applause of the Inter fans, but after the game started, Inter Milan did not relent.

Beating Fiorentina in the last round, Inter Milan also paid a lot of price, Stankovic received two yellow cards before the end, Dick made a big adjustment to the starting line-up changed from four to four two to three five two, goalkeeper Toldo, Cordoba as the right central defender, Cannavaro left central defender, Materazzi dragged behind, Zanetti and Mascherano started at the same time as the back, Pandev rushed forward, Zanetti returned to the right side, Perrotta played on the left side, and the forward partner was still Adriano and Toney partner.

Such a start surprised everyone, because Dick has always been in the habit of not making substitutions at the beginning of the season, but strengthening the run-in through the same lineup, although Stankovic is suspended in this game, but Dick's men are not without rotation, whether it is Semioli or Di Natale, there is no problem playing on the right side......

It was Bologna's men who started the game first, and their midfielder Locatelli forced his way through and fired wide of the far post.

However, after this attack, Inter Milan quickly regained the initiative on the field.

In the sixth minute, Zanetti and Pandev made a one-two combination and then burst into the penalty area and crossed, and Toney, who received the ball, shot directly at the goal, and the ball hit the outside of the post and flew out of the bottom line, shocking Pagliuca into a cold sweat.

In the seventh minute, Perrotta created a free-kick, Pandev crossed the ball into the box, and the high-flying Córdoba grabbed the first spot in the box, but his header hit the crossbar and bounced off the bottom line, and Bologna escaped again.

In the opening ten minutes, Inter Milan hit the crossbar and a goalpost in a row, and it is clear that although such a formation was changed, it still did not affect the good form of the Inter Milan players when attacking.

Dick knows very well about this, in fact, if it is not for Stankovic's suspension, then even if it changes from four to four two to three or five two, Inter Milan's main lineup will still not change, Stankovic has no problem playing in the middle, he can still help the attack on this side, Zanetti is more powerful than the attack on the left side after returning to the right side, plus Perrotta himself is a midfielder who can attack and defend well, his running and sprinting ability on the left side will not decline, and Cannavaro will fill his position, His offense is also more unscrupulous, such a formation may not be as balanced as four-four-two, but in terms of offense, it is more aggressive, more layered, and more sharp!

The Inter fans didn't have to wait long, in the fourteenth minute, Pandev received a pass from Zanetti behind him, and then knocked it to Adriano in front, Adriano took the ball with his back, and when the defenders kept interfering with him, he cleverly distributed the ball to Perrotta on the left side!

Perrotta slotted in the box, played Adriano's pass forward, and then lifted his foot to cross the ball into the box as Pagliuca moved his pace to block the spot......

Tony, who arrived on the horse, still raised his foot and shot the ball out when one of the opposing defenders was almost hanging on him, and the ball quickly flew into most of the empty goal, and Inter Milan took a 1-0 lead!

"Beautiful goal! Luca Toney scored his fifth league goal of the season! Although his goal rate is not as terrible as Adriano's eight goals in ten games, his five-goal record in eleven games can be said to be qualified, and his role on the field is not only measured by goals, he is a fulcrum in the front court, sharing a lot of defensive attention for Adriano......"

The Inter fans cheered loudly, they began to like this mediocre center, when Dick decided to sign Toney and sell Vieri, they did not understand, they cursed, even though Dick has always shown a very shrewd eye, but it is clear that the Inter fans have not personally felt it......

Now they know that Dick's vision is right, although Toni is not as domineering as Vieri, but he can be part of the team, even if he doesn't play the core, he can play well, and now that we have Adriano, then Vieri in the team, maybe it will be a bad situation.

Dick nodded slightly off the field, Tony is indeed very good, and more importantly, he is also a late bloomer, and now he is not the best of him.

One for him, one for Materazzi, may be the biggest guarantee for Inter Milan to continue to improve in the middle of the season this season, because the form of these two people is upward, and at this time, it is Perrotta and Pandev who can bring surprises.

Dick is happy with the way his players are playing at the moment, Cannavaro is starting to be more and more consistent, and he has always played poorly in the first two seasons, which has a lot to do with Cooper letting him play as a scavenger, in fact, he has never been a solid central defender.

After taking the lead, the Inter Milan players did not stop moving forward, but continued to create problems for Bologna through attack, if it were not for Pagliuca's excellent performance and continuous high and low blocks, maybe Bologna would have fallen behind by two goals......

Dick is also very helpless about this, Inter Milan's current offensive firepower is up, but it is still not very integrated, they attack a lot, and they are also very fierce, but such an attack can often play the state of the opponent's goalkeeper, now there are many powerful goalkeepers in Serie A, in the face of this siege and a large number of shots, they are not very afraid, so along the way, although Inter Milan has scored a lot of goals, but in fact, compared with the opportunities they created, the goals are not very much.

In the sixteenth minute, Pandev created a free kick, Adriano shot directly from 35 meters out, which was saved by Pagliuca.

In the eighteenth minute, Adriano crossed the ball against a back three defenders, and Mascherano, who was inserted in the back row, fired wide of the far post.

In the 20th minute, Pandev passed through Tony, but Pagliuca made an early attack to get the ball.

This attack continued until the 40th minute, and Bologna could barely resist Inter Milan's attack, and the occasional attack by the likes of Locatelli and Bellucci was easily defused by Inter's three central defenders and two midfielders......

In the 40th minute, Toney was violated by the opposing defender with the ball in front, and Inter Milan won a direct free kick 25 meters from the goal, Recoba and Stankovic were not there, and Adriano stood in front of the ball.

While a free-kick from such a distance doesn't seem to be too advantageous for Ade, if he shoots hard, the threat is also very high – Adriano's shot is so powerful and fast that even if it's a straight line, it's a great test for the goalkeeper.

The referee blew the whistle that could be punished, Adriano began to run, and at this time, Pandev, who seemed to be just standing in front of the ball and was about to do a little coordination, suddenly flew up and kicked the ball out directly!

The ball arced in the air, flew past the wall before reacting, and then plunged headlong into the corner of the goal before Pagliuca had time to turn his head!

Two to zero! Inter Milan took a two-goal lead in the first half – what seemed to be the first time in the league this season, having beaten Udinese 3-1 in the previous game, and although Adriano scored twice in the first half, they still managed to pull back a point before half-time......

"Dick's timely change of formation made a big difference...... Now that they have a two-goal lead, this three-five-two formation seems to be more suitable for Inter's current staff...... Even when Stankovic returns, he seems to be qualified as a playmaker in the middle...... Will Dick stick with such tactics? ”

Dick shook his head with a slight smile, this formation can be used once or twice, if you play for a long time, there are still many weaknesses, such as the defense on the side is still a little worse, such as the formation is too open, and the midfield lacks technical elements...... Although Stankovic played well in Lazio's attacking midfield, but from a technical point of view, he is relatively mediocre, whether it is ball control, passing, dribbling, organization or scheduling, can only be regarded as ordinary, Dick appreciates him for his physical movement in the midfield, and that kick can always hit the world's wave of long-range shots, he can be a useful part of the midfield, but he can't become the core.

So after Stankovic's return, Inter Milan will still return to the previous style of play.

Dick's judgment proved right, although in the first half, Bologna was almost stunned by Inter Milan, but the Italian manager was unparalleled in terms of tactical sensitivity and on-the-spot adjustment, and their manager quickly noticed the fault of 352, and began to attack Inter Milan's left side after the start of the second half, and successfully used this side of the break to create a corner, using this corner to save a point.

However, after the two sides continued to entangle for 30 minutes, Inter Milan also relied on a corner kick to extend their lead, substitute Recoba took a corner, under the cover of Materazzi and others, Adriano grabbed the first drop point in the backfield, and with an easy header, the ball went into the empty net and scored his ninth goal in 11 league games......

Although in stoppage time, Bologna once again took advantage of the gap on the left to pull back a point, but it still did nothing, relying on a goal from each of the front trident, Inter Milan beat Bologna 3-2 at home, and continued to chase Juventus by one point, Juventus beat Fiorentina by one goal at home and continue to lead the standings.

"Change formations? I don't think I changed the line-up, it was actually still a four-four-two, but Cannavaro went to left-back...... I'm not too fond of discussing this, because I don't want my tactical thinking to be exposed to everyone...... Why don't you ask Mr. Capello why Oliveira is playing in this game? Or ask Mr. Ancelotti why he let Shepchenko play in a row instead of giving him a break...... In fact, all I care about is that we get another win. ”
