Chapter 234: Goal Battle

Instead of organising an effective counter-attack quickly, Inter Milan played in chaos and were crushed by Roma.

In the 9th minute, after Kufre quickly passed the midfield with the ball, the diagonal long pass was pushed out by Burdisso, Totti grabbed the landing point and took the ball straight to the right side, and Mancini Jr. received the ball and adjusted a step to make a decisive cross. At this time, Inter's defense made another marking error, and Montella stopped the ball with his chest and calmly smashed the ball into the near corner when he was unmarked at the back post.

In less than 10 minutes of the opening game, Inter Milan fell behind 0:2!

Mancini stood up from the dugout, his face turned pale, and began to shout at the pitch in an attempt to improve his team.

The fans in the stands who accompanied the team were listless, and the flag hung weakly.

Normally at times like these, fans would expect Ronaldo to come out and save them, but today Ronaldo was injured.

It doesn't matter, we still have Adriano, and Ricardo. The fans comforted each other.

And Ricardo did step up.

In the 12th minute, Recoba broke through from the right and crossed, the ball hit the front post, and Ricardo headed the ball back, and the ball went slightly over the crossbar.

Soon, Zemaria crossed from the right, this time Adriano interfered in front of the goal, and Ricardo headed in the middle, this time just a little more than the goalkeeper could confiscate.

The Roma players didn't know much about Ricardo and didn't pay enough attention to it, and even those two goals didn't make them pay more attention to him. Soon they reaped the bitter fruits.

In the 19th minute, Ricardo dribbled the ball himself in the middle, and De Rossi stepped forward to interfere and was easily shaken away by Ricardo. Roma did not make up for the defense in time, and there was a blank space at the edge of the penalty area. Ricardo took a big step to catch up with the ball and shot directly from about 23 meters from the goal!

Pellizzoli was half a beat slower to react, and despite his knee-jerk save, the ball was already flying into the net before him. Pelizzoli watched the football rolling in the net for a moment, and then threw a tantrum at his own defense: "Why didn't anyone go up to defend him!" Why give him such an easy chance to get off his feet! ”

While Pellizzoli was arguing with his team-mates, Ricardo was already running wild in celebration. Soon Adriano caught up with him, and the two improvised a short samba dance.

The narrator screamed, "Ricardo goal!! In Inter Milan's most difficult time, the new youngster stepped up and scored a valuable goal! It was a beautiful long-range shot with tricky angles and there was nothing Peligzzoli could do! It was also Ricardo's fifth goal since joining Inter Milan, reaching this milestone in just seven games, four of which came as a substitute! ”

"Mancini should really think about how to use Licardo well, even if Ronaldo returns from injury, Ricardo deserves his place in this team! It is simply a crime to let such a genius play as a substitute! ”

"In the opening 20 minutes, the two sides have already scored a total of three goals. There is a good chance that this game will turn into a goal shootout. Friends who buy small balls, are they ready to go to the rooftop? ”

Roberto Mancini applauded Ricardo's performance and returned to the dugout. As long as you continue to play like this, the team will still have a show.

This goal allowed Inter Milan to quickly stabilize the morale of the army. Although the defense line is still a mess, the players use tenacious fighting spirit and fierce scrambling to keep the goal from conceding.

Inter Milan's players are relatively big, and the Roma players are not to be outdone, and the smell of gunpowder on the field is getting stronger and stronger, but it may be that everyone is too focused on the muscle competition and has not got too good opportunities.

In the 44th minute, Veron was tackled by De Rossi, who received a yellow card, and Veron limped off the pitch and could not continue the game. He was replaced by Davis.

He made a mark for his team right out of the pitch when Recoba's corner was headed out by a Roma defender, Davies picked up the ball on the left side of the box and played it straight to Ricardo, who found the gap in the thick leg and crossed in front of goal, Cambiaso knocked on the door of Pelizzoli with an almost dive header that was almost close to the ground, scoring his first goal since joining Inter.

After the goal, Cambiasso excitedly found Ricardo to hug, and Ricardo was in a weird mood...... The Brazilian assists the Argentine to score, will he be killed by the fans when he returns to Brazil......

The first half of the game went into the break with a score of 2:2, and the two sides returned to the dressing room.

Mancini commented on the team's performance, praised Ricardo and said: "Licardo, you have to play more defensively, I'm not happy with your defensive attitude. ”

Ricardo drank his head and said after a while, "Got it, boss." ”

At São Paulo, he had the privilege of not participating in the defense. But in Italy, which is more defensive, at Inter Milan, he is not qualified for the time being.

There is only one person at Inter Milan who can not be involved in defense: Ronaldo.

Being involved in defense means that his energy will be depleted faster. But it can't be helped, since you're in Italy, you have to respect the Italian football atmosphere.

At the start of the second half, Ricardo stepped up his movement and was more active in his defense. However, as a striker in this game, he does not need to defend back into the penalty area, at most he only needs to return to the top of the arc to prevent the opponent's midfielders from shooting from a distance. Then there is the need to get back into the box when defending set-pieces.

Inter took the lead early in the second half.

In the 51st minute, there was another corner kick opportunity, Recoba drove a corner to the back post, and Ricardo was once again ignored by the opposition defenders, who calmly swung up and volleyed unmarked. The ball flew towards the far post, but hit Adriano's leg midway through the way and bounced into the middle of the net.

Pellizzoli had already made a save and could only watch as the ball reflected into the net in the opposite direction to him. Sometimes it's not a good thing to react too quickly......

"Ricardo goal!!!" The unreadable commentator shouted, "Ricardo scored a beautiful goal to give Inter Milan the lead away!" It's a great reversal! ”

Adriano ran to Ricardo to celebrate, and after hugging Ricardo, he asked, "Is this ball yours or mine?" ”

"I guess it's better to count your goals," Ricardo said with a bitter face, "if only you didn't touch it, and pay back my goal bonus!" ”

"Haha, happy nightclub tonight, I've covered the expenses!" Adriano said boldly.

"You know I'm not going to that kind of place," Ricardo shook his head and ran away, "don't let up and try to score another goal!" A one-goal lead is the least safe score in the world. ”
