Chapter 92: Superstar Performance (Part II)
The score was tied at 2-2 and the two sides were back on the same starting line again, with Ronaldo's brilliant pass giving the fans a dose of doping and the huge picture of buckteeth sending waves of blue and black waves in the stands.
Although it was Recoba's goal, the main credit for this goal still went to Fei Luo - after all, flashing two top defenders in a row, this kind of thing is probably difficult for Ling Feng to do.
But in fact, Recoba's outstanding performance also fell in the eyes of some people who care - when Canu just passed Vieira, Recoba had already rushed forward in advance, so although he was slower than Carlos, he rushed into the penalty area first.
And that shot was ...... To be precise, although it is a single knife, Recoba's calmness in front of the goal is also quite important, and it is a little unfair to Recoba to attribute the credit for this goal to Ronaldo.
The two sides drew again, and Maradona immediately replaced Baggio and Batistuta in succession, and replaced Laudrup Jr. and Shepchenko to continue to strengthen the attack in the front.
Xiao Lao's state has almost recovered, and he looks like he picked up the ball on the field, and he was the Danish star who galloped on the field back then.
But now there is one thing that makes the Fiorentina players quite depressed - the luck of the Inter Milan team is too good!
It may have something to do with the home advantage, plus the current draw between the two teams, so the Fiorentina players are a little anxious when it comes to shooting.
Fiorentina continued their ferocious streak for another 15 minutes, hitting five shots and three in the woodwork, but still no goals, and during that time, Inter Milan only relied on Kanu to head the ball high from a corner.
The gap in the situation is quite obvious, but whether it is Ling Feng or Schupchenko and Laudrup Jr. in front, there is no way to get too good opportunities, and even Effenberg is pressed in front of the penalty area, but the players of Inter Milan are very tenacious, and the head coach Simeone replaced Paganin, who was close to exhaustion, and continued to replace a central defender, who has been resisting stubbornly, and taking a counterattack strategy at the right opportunity.
Inter's tactics are similar to the rogue's defensive counterattack strategy, but this kind of defensive counterattack is very wonderful, there is no outstanding talent in the backline, but there is a lot of talent in the front line, and it is also a three-forward formation, which is really very different from the general defensive counterattack strategy.
In the 33rd minute, Ling Feng's free kick hit the crossbar and bounced, squandering a great opportunity again.
Fiorentina's players couldn't help but curse in their stomachs, they couldn't score goals after having such an absolute advantage, and they were scored two goals by the opponent's two fast breaks, which was really very depressing!
Then when the opponent restarted the game, Maradona, who had been sitting in the stool without moving after replacing Xiao Lao and Sheva, stood up, called Rui Costa, and gently admonished him.
Maradona, what kind of arrangements will there be?
Everyone knows that Lao Ma usually doesn't shoot easily when he is in the game, and his killer move is to use a substitute striker to send him on the field, and deploy Ling Feng's position at the right time to achieve the effect of a surprise soldier.
But now, with both substitute strikers on the field, the only thing Maradona can do is to change his tactics on the pitch to achieve the goal of defeating the enemy.
Maradona, how will it be arranged?
This is a question that haunts everyone's minds, especially Inter coach Luiz•Simeone.
As mentioned earlier, Simeone was the head coach of the Neapolitan dynasty back then, and he also watched the old horse become the king of Naples - so for Maradona, Simeone is still quite jealous, after all, a genius who can be whimsical on the pitch will not give up his skills after becoming a coach - especially when there is another guy in Florence who is as crazy as the old horse.
The director very cleverly cut the scene to Rui Costa, and at this time the Portuguese was whispering something to Ling Feng, and made a gesture, while Ling Feng repeated the gesture with a strange expression.
It's a very strange gesture, how to say it, there are four fingers retracted, the middle finger is exposed, it looks, it looks like - that kind of insulting gesture!
Fortunately, neither Ling Feng nor Costa made this gesture to the door of Inter, otherwise, the Inter fans would have gone crazy - maybe the iron fence would not have stopped the anger of these fans.
In fact, the gesture of the two of them was for the old horse......
Because Rui•Costa only said one sentence in Ling Feng's ear: "Diego asked me to only talk to you alone, whether you can win or not depends on you......"
"Gone?"
"No ......"
Ling Feng cursed vigorously in his heart, if he could score a goal, he would have scored a long time ago - could he think he was a real shooting machine, as long as he hit the goal, he could score goals?!
However, soon, Ling Feng understood Lao Ma's intentions.
Because the number of people who are watching Ling Feng has suddenly increased!
Originally, there was only one Simeone, but now Zanetti also made up for it, and the two of them blocked the gap in front of Ling Feng tightly one left and one right, and at the same time, Grant and Bergomi couldn't stop glancing at Ling Feng when they were defending, for fear that this guy would suddenly play some kind of move.
After being cut off by the opponent twice in a row, Ling Feng suddenly understood that Maradona had no other meaning, just to make the opponent pay special attention to himself!
In terms of personnel, the defensive and offensive players of the two teams are about the same, so although Fiorentina have the advantage on the field, it is difficult to break the balance!
As soon as Maradona said this, the balance on the field was immediately broken!
Originally, it was Simeone and Grant who broke through to defend Ling Feng, and Zanetti's main attention was on the Ukrainian nuclear warhead that had just come on the field, but now it ......
There is only one Belgomi by Shepchenko's side, and part of Bergomi's attention is on Ling Feng, so at this time, Shepchenko, who has been doing nothing on the field, has a chance!
What a ****** worthy of the old rascal Maradona! Fiction is real, reality is fiction, and Sun Tzu's art of war, which is not tired of deceit, has been used by this old bastard to be superb.
Understanding what the old horse meant, Ling Feng shamelessly started a large-scale run around the forbidden area, including the two wings!
This is something that makes the Inter players scratch their heads.
In the next three minutes, Ling Feng didn't control the ball much, but passed the ball when he got it, and then inserted it to the side at the same time, which gave people the obvious appearance that he wanted to do a two-on-one cooperation with his teammates.
Although he also didn't know what Ling Feng was going to do, but now when Baggio and Barty, two respected veterans, were not on the field, Ling Feng was undoubtedly the absolute core of Florence, plus Lao Ma seemed to have assigned Ling Feng some special tasks, Shepchenko and the others wanted to definitely attack with Ling Feng as the core.
But what I like to laugh at is that Ling Feng seems to be deliberately playing tricks on the opposing player, and after successfully coming to the side with Sheva or Xiao Lao's one-two, he actually passes the ball back to Rui •, Costa or Effenberg, and he retreats to the middle again, and the two of them complete a 45-degree diagonal pass.
Seeing that Ling Feng was always running on both wings, the Inter players unconsciously strengthened the defense of the high-altitude ball in the penalty area, but they still couldn't figure out what Ling Feng or Fiorentina wanted to do!
After several attacks back and forth, the Inter defenders were a little annoyed - Fiorentina launched three attacks in five minutes, and did not make a single shot on goal, but they did not let the Inter Milan players control the ball and launch a fast attack!
And in the next attack, Ling Feng suddenly changed his style and chose to break through forcibly!
Here it comes! The defenders of Inter Milan sounded this thought in their hearts at the same time, Ling Feng's running back and forth just now may be a smoke bomb, the purpose is to create a good opportunity for themselves to dribble the ball, and now, the opportunity has come.
Simeone was skillfully passed by Ling Feng, but the Argentine back was also very clever and gently pulled Ling Feng after being gotten rid of, making Ling Feng's body shake a little, and the ball was slightly bigger.
Such an opportunity must not be missed, Zanetti immediately made up for the defense and fell to the ground to shovel the ball, but at the moment when he fell to the ground, he saw a strange smile on the corner of Ling Feng's mouth.
Suddenly, Zanetti noticed that the ball in front of his toes jumped up lightly, flew over the head of defender Bergomi, and landed right in the big penalty area, and a purple figure passed by Bergomi at the same time and met the ball!
Ling Feng picked the ball into Inter Milan's penalty area!
Joke, what kind of physical fitness is Ling Feng? How can you make a mistake with a slight pull from an unbalanced Simeone? This action is obviously used to trick Zanetti and Bergomi, two guys who have been watching him, into being fooled!
No one would have thought that a person who was out of balance would be able to pass the ball so well!
Zanetti tackled, and Bergomi also made a move to make up for the position forward, and it was just such a moment that Ling Feng passed!
The ball passed to Bergomi's back with great precision, and it was the Ukrainian nuclear warhead that was quickly inserted!
Shepchenko stepped on the ball with his right foot in the air, unloaded the ball in front of him steadily, and the next thing was to face Pagliuca alone!
For a top striker, such a goal is a must-score under normal circumstances, but it is not to say that there are no special circumstances.
Maybe the warm-up just now was not done well, and there were not too many opportunities to get the ball on the field, Shepchenko's ball was not played well, and his strength was not accurate, and he was stopped by Pagliuca flying!
Just when all the Inter fans were lamenting the luck, suddenly a foot appeared on the path of the ball...... With a slight push, the ball slowly rolled into the empty goal in the air.
Little Laudrup! The guy who created the Danish myth in '92 scored his most crucial goal after his comeback!
With less than ten minutes left in the game, defeat was in sight for Inter. Simeone replaced Kanu and brought on Chilean Zamorano in an attempt to equalise in the final moments.
But how easy is it to break down the Fiorentina defence?
Although Zamorano is full of physical strength, but his state this season is really not good, he and Recoba are not the same person, Recoba admits death, he thinks that he wants to create a world at Inter, then he has to achieve his goal, so he has stayed in Inter Milan;
And Zamorano has already had the idea of going at this time, so although the Chilean killer has plenty of physical strength, he still can't keep up with the physical strength that has consumed most of his physical strength, and Recoba, who is fighting against, and Ronaldo, who is not admitting defeat.
Maybe on the pitch, strength is not the most important, technique is not the most important, the important thing is the spirit of hard work, which is the essence of sports and the charm of football.
When Zamorano came on for three minutes, Simeone recognized his mistake, and the main striker, who wore the number nine shirt, seemed to be expressing his displeasure with his placement on the bench with negativity.
However, this is the last card in Simeone's hand.
In the final seven minutes, it will be up to the other two guys to bring hope to the next game whether they can equalise and bring hope into the next game.
In fact, Simeone himself knows that with the excellent performance of Ronaldo, Recoba and Kanu, he played like this with home advantage, but he still let the opponent score three goals!
That's three away goals!
Even if it is a draw, when it comes to the opponent's away game, it is a considerable disadvantage - once you concede another goal at Fiorentina's home, it can be said that there is no hope left.
Fiorentina defended tightly, but they were not invulnerable, and without daring to press the attack, Inter Milan finally won a valuable free-kick opportunity on the edge of the box when the referee raised the sign for three minutes of stoppage time.
This should be the last chance.
Recoba and Djokaeff both stood in front of the ball at the same time, but all Fiorentina players were aiming for Recoba - after all, the Uruguayan teenager was Inter's leading scorer!
The referee blows the whistle and Djokaef and Recoba start to run one after the other!
"Djokaeff is a feint!" Almost everyone was thinking this way, and everyone set their sights on Recoba behind them.
However, Djokaeff actually hit the door!
The ball flew over the wall of the person who did not react, and it flew into the gate, and what appeared in the camera was Thordo, who was stunned and did not react!
3:3 draw! In the last moments of the game, Inter Milan finally managed to draw with Fiorentina, leaving the suspense of the game for the next game!
