Chapter 490: Wait and see

Derby - this word from horse racing, has completely become synonymous with the city war, whether it is a well-known giant, or an unknown middle and lower level team, there will be no slack when encountering a derby, the reason is very simple, since it is a derby, then it is the same city, for both sides of the city, that is a deeper level of competition, grab the territory, grab the popularity, grab the belonging of the fans...... All this is the key to the development of the whole team!

The Milan derby is the highest level of the same city derby in the world - these two teams are world-famous giants in their own right, and it is often rare for a city to have several top teams in a city, but two giants like this are quite rare in a city......

In addition to the Milan giants, the other giants that can be called the top giants are basically only one in a city, for example, Manchester has only Manchester United, Manchester City has always been grassroots, Everton's giant is Liverpool, Everton is far from being able to compare with this team that was established later than itself, Munich 1860 is so small in front of Bayern, Atletico Madrid can not be compared with Real Madrid's heritage, and the Spaniards can only occasionally disgust Barcelona......

Even if Arsenal and Chelsea are both in London, but you must know that London is huge, and before Abobou took over, Chelsea was not a top team, even under the leadership of Bates, they were at best a spoiler, not a team capable of challenging for the title. 【Latest chapter reading. 】

Only the Milan derby has such a high appeal.

For such a game, there are naturally countless people looking forward to it, but last season's two Milan derbies were not shocked, two 0-0, although the game was also very intense, and the players on both sides worked hard, but from the perspective of the process, there was nothing exciting The best wife read the full text.

And before the start of this game, many people also had this concern, Inter Milan is now one point ahead of AC Milan, they are still unbeaten, there are only four games left to catch up with AC Milan's unbeaten record, with Dick's characteristics, maybe they will hold a draw obscenely, and then attack the record to boost morale, so as to catch up with Juventus in the second half of the season - it is not impossible to do, with the depth of Inter Milan's bench, as long as they don't drop too many points on their rivals, After the Champions League resumed, they were much less likely to steal points than Juventus, who were on the bench and had a small average age.

Juventus are facing the same situation now, their backline is also relatively old, Thuram is already quite young, Kovac is also a veteran, Emerson and Vieira are both in their thirties, and Inter Milan, the youngest with an average age, can be completely relevant.

However, after the start of the game, such worries disappeared, although Inter Milan did not start with a big attack that did nothing, but on the field, they appeared to be proactive from the beginning, and AC Milan launched a press in the midfield!

The midfielders of both sides can be described as midfielders with good technical and running ability, from a certain point of view, the midfields of both sides are very similar, AC Milan has the master Pirlo who is dispatched from the back, and Inter Milan also has the organization rookie Sneijder, AC Milan's midfield's defense mainly relies on Gattuso's crazy running, Inter Milan's Mascherano is also a defensive midfielder who can run, and Seedorf and Stankovic are both midfielders with good running ability, and they also have an excellent long-range shot, but Seedorf's organizational ability is stronger, Stankovic is a hard-working runner, with the only big difference being Kaka and Figo, who are average in organization and strong in individual assault and long-range shooting, while Figo is experienced and has excellent crosses and assists.

On the front line, it is more similar, Inter Milan is Toni at the front, Adriano is behind, AC Milan is Gilardino at the front, and Shepchenko is involved in running back and forth......

On the back line, Inter Milan is a four-old combination, and AC Milan's backline is not young, this is still because of Maldini's injury, otherwise the average age may not be much younger than Inter Milan, plus the goalkeepers on both sides are Brazilians...... This is very similar to the derby opponents indeed.

Dick's tactics in this game are not blindly pressing on the attack, the reason is very simple, Kaka and Shepchenko are both players who need space to dribble the ball, especially Kaka, if it is a positional battle, Kaka's ability is actually not particularly strong, because he lacks organizational ability and delicate breakthrough footwork, known as a modern front waist, is because of his strong running ability, full of strength, and the traditional front waist is very different, if you compress his space, his performance will not be too good, But if he is given enough space, then the lethality he can exert will be amazing!

Therefore, Dick does not plan to leave too much space in the backfield in this game, and when there is a gap in the backfield, it must be when Inter Milan is attacking.

The two sides fought in the midfield, the degree of scramble was naturally quite intense, just two minutes into the opening game, Tony collided with Kaladze in the front court when he was fighting for the top, Kaladze's eyebrow bone was opened, and he was forced to go off the field for treatment, Tony had no problem.

The blood at the beginning naturally meant that the game would not be too peaceful - soon, Gattuso knocked down Figo in the midfield, which attracted a burst of angry scolding from the Inter fans in the stands, and also attracted a warning from the referee.

These two fouls are just a microcosm of the scramble between the two sides, but the offensive ability of both sides is excellent, Inter Milan now scored a surprising fifty-six goals in fourteen rounds, an average of four goals per game, this kind of attack can be called the first in Europe, AC Milan is actually not bad, they have scored thirty goals in fourteen games, and the average goal of more than two goals per game is also the top in the whole Europe, but Inter Milan's scoring ability this season is too terrible, Leads to the perception that their goalscoring ability is mediocre......

In the seventh minute, Inter Milan took the lead in completing a shot, Figo took the ball on the side, Adriano and Toney's running in the box attracted the attention of the other party, but he turned and passed the ball to Sneijder who came in, Sneijder sent a short pass, Stankovic took the ball and shot from a long distance at the edge of the penalty area at the first time, and the ball was slightly higher than the crossbar The strongest treasurer.

Gattuso's timely pressing affected Stankovic's shooting – Stankovic's long-range shots were excellent, but he also had a problem with his long-range shots, which was that he was too big and often easily interfered with by others, and his top-level long-range shots were mostly scored unguarded......

Inter Milan took the lead with a shot on goal, and AC Milan were not to be outdone, and soon they completed a counter-attack, Kaka split the ball in the counter-attack, Seedorf took the ball and went straight to the front, Gilardino received the ball and turned to shoot at the first time, Cesar flew to save and pressed the ball under him.

Cesar threw the ball to attack, the ball was thrown directly to the feet of the retreating Figo, Figo received the ball and turned, and when Gattuso pounced violently, he had already passed the ball to Adriano in front of him, Adriano gave it to Stankovic on the left side, Stankovic took two steps and then crossed with his feet, Toni still grabbed the first drop point under the attack of Stam and Nesta, but unfortunately he failed to top the power under the interference, the ball flew weakly to the goal, and was easily picked up by the attacking Dida.

In the twelfth minute, Inter Milan made another difficulty, Stankovic crossed from the side, and Adriano, who was inserted in the back row, volleyed at the first time after stopping the ball on his chest at the back point, and the ball was high above the crossbar, which made Adriano very regretful, just a good opportunity, but he was a little anxious when shooting, so that he did not hit the part.

"This kid, what's the hurry, isn't it just a Milan derby? What's there to be nervous about? ”

Dick muttered from the sidelines, and the sound fell into the ears of the others, leaving them speechless - why can't the Milan derby be nervous? It's normal to be nervous in such an important game, okay......

However, the two consecutive attacks created chances, and also began to put a certain amount of pressure on the AC Milan players - after attacking back and forth after the opening game, Inter Milan began to continue to produce shots, little by little to form a pressure, how can they not be pressured?

Ancelotti's brows furrowed, even if Inter Milan is in good shape now, AC Milan's state is not bad, how could it be suppressed in the first place? If the difference in strength between the two sides is so big, then this game will not start at all, the strength is not as good as the opponent, and the physical fitness is not as good as the opponent, so how can it be played?

But in fact, this kind of thing is impossible, AC Milan is also a top giant, the team is star-studded, and the cooperation is not unfamiliar, how can it be pulled down so much by Inter Milan? The only reason is ......

Soon, Ancelotti could see what was causing the consequences.

That is, physical fitness.

Because he knows that his team's physical fitness is average, at least not in the best condition, so Ancelotti arranges tactics to entangle the opponent and try to distribute the physical fitness as evenly as possible, so as not to let Inter Milan find opportunities in the second half of the game - the game against Juventus can see Inter Milan's physical advantage, they almost dragged Juventus down with crazy running in the second half, Dick's idea of forming a team is particularly obvious in such a game, Most of the team are players with excellent physical fitness, and they are very good at rotation, which makes Inter Milan have a physical advantage in any game, against the weak team is a stormy opening attack, after gaining the advantage gradually expanded, against the strong team is a desperate entanglement in the first half, any in the second half by relying on the physical advantage to launch a big counterattack - whether it is against Juventus or Chelsea, this is the way of thinking.

So Ancelotti also made a proper arrangement for this, but Inter Milan started that kind of a lot of running from the beginning instead of entanglement, under such a run, AC Milan, which intends to save and distribute physical energy, is naturally a little unbearable, you run 100 meters and people run 150 meters, which is a great advantage in accumulation!

Ancelotti is now faced with two situations, one is to counteract this advantage by also allowing his players to increase their runs, but it is easy to do so soon after the start of the second half when the players are demoralized due to a drop in fitness – perhaps Dick wants him to do that.

And the other way is not to change first, so play and see - you must know that the players of Inter Milan will also consume a lot of physical energy, if AC Milan can withstand this period of time, then Inter Milan's next physical advantage will no longer exist!

So Ancelotti planned to wait and see.
