At half-time, the Inter fans kept singing and the singing drifted into the dressing room, even though it has been a little year since Ricardo arrived at Inter Milan, and he is used to such singing, and he is still a little excited.

Roberto Mancini acknowledged the performance of his players throughout the first half and then spoke to the players in each position.

When it was Licardo's turn, Mancini pointed at him and scolded with a smile: "Licardo, although I understand your feelings of fighting for your teammates, but you also have to pay attention to controlling your emotions, the most important psychological quality of a good shooter is calm, I don't want you to be overly enthusiastic and unable to perform your duties." ”

Ricardo lowered his head and said, "Got it." I'll take control, Robert. ”

"Also," Mancini said, "I don't know what happened to you today, I feel like you're not playing confidently, not like you normally are. Be bold, take the ball when you need it, break through when you need to break through, and play your strengths to the fullest. ”

Ricardo shuddered and nodded vigorously. In hindsight, he realised that today he seemed to take the world-class centre-back duo of Maldini and Nesta too seriously.

The main thing is that he was just a third-rate striker in his last life, and he is naturally in awe of such a world-class player.

And in this life, now he is an intercontinental player, whether it is technical, ideological, or physical, he will not be beaten by world-class players, and he can try to hold the ball in front of them, or even break through.

After a lap of commentary, Mancini began to lay out his tactics for the second half.

What to do in the first few minutes, what to do in the next period, how to play when the score is ahead, how to play if you are unexpectedly behind, he talked about it all over again, and the break is over.

Walking out of the locker room and into the players' tunnel, Ricardo noticed that Nesta and referee DeSantis were talking something, and Seedorf next to him was also smiling. This gave Ricardo a very bad association.

But the football rules don't say that players can't communicate with the referee in private, so he can only snort coldly and put away his worries.

At the start of the second half, Inter kicked off first. Neither side made any substitutions.

Ricardo implemented Mancini's plan and looked for a breakthrough on the left flank from the start, but Cafu was experienced and followed him closely to prevent him from breaking through. However, Ricardo still found an opportunity, shook off an empty space, and crossed with his feet. However, under the interference, he passed too close to the goalkeeper, and Dida came out to get the ball.

Ronaldo in the middle is helpless, if Dida doesn't attack in time, he will be sure of this ball.

At this time, a large number of fireworks were lit by fans, and smoke filled the sky over the Meazza Stadium, which affected the visibility of the stadium.

In the case of obstructed vision, the judgment of the high-altitude ball will obviously be affected, so for a while, both sides began to focus on advancing on the ground.

However, the ground defense of both sides is relatively solid, Favalli and Mihajlovic are generally more pitiful when defending high-altitude balls, and Córdoba is also short of height and fierce ground defense, so this model is more favorable to Inter Milan, and AC Milan did not play a threatening attack for 10 minutes.

That's when Carlo Ancelotti made a second substitution. Under Costa, on Costa.

Costacuta played at centre-back to assist Maldini in defending Ronaldo; Serginho was pushed up to the left midfield. Kaka is still playing as a midfielder.

As a result, AC Milan's formation on the pitch has become asymmetrical, and it can simply force OCD to death.

In the 68th minute, Ricardo and Stankovic combined on the left flank, and after Ricardo took the ball, he calmly shook off Gattuso, and when Pirlo stepped up, he handed the ball to Stankovic again. Stankovic only had to take a big step to get into the box and shoot.

In desperation, Cafu tackled Stankovic from behind to defuse Inter's attack. He received a yellow card for his actions, and Ricardo had nothing to say, after all, Cafu's kick was a tactical foul and there was no intent to kill.

Mihajlovic's free-kick was firmly held by Dida and the attack and defense were reversed.

Soon, in a scramble, Veron and Gattuso collided together, and after the team doctor's examination, it was determined that he was no longer able to continue the game, and Mancini had to make a substitution, replacing Veron with Emre.

Emre also brought Mancini's latest instructions: shrink the formation and focus on defence.

Zanetti is almost no longer involved in the attack, and Cambiaso rarely comes forward.

In the 73rd minute, Ricardo picked up the ball and quickly moved to the left, Emre appeared in the open to receive the ball and played a low cross to the penalty spot.

Caught between Costacuta and Maldini, Ronaldo struggled to find a gap and scrambled to stop the ball before firing a shot at goal. But under the interference, he didn't eat the right part, the quality of the shot was not high, and the ball was held by Dida.

Dida ran to the edge of the box with the ball in his hand, tossed the ball to Serginho and launched a counter-attack.

Serginho, pressed by Zanetti, took the ball to the edge of the line and finally got up in a hurry to win a corner.

The corner was not given to Andrea Pirlo, but was taken by Serginho.

The ball he drove was flat and fast, and Córdoba broke the ball in front of him.

Gattuso stopped the ball on the periphery of his chest and fired a shot straight from distance, the ball hit Kaka's body and changed direction, and Toldo had already made a save, only to watch the ball roll slowly into the goal from his opposite direction. 1-0, AC Milan leads.

"Kaka goal!" The commentator excitedly shouted: "AC Milan opened the scoring!" It's not a very good ball, with a certain element of luck, Inter Milan are really unlucky! Is this the end of their unbeaten run this season? ”

"Since last season, when Inter Milan lost 2-1 to Lecce on 2 May last year, they have not lost 38 games in the league. And this season, starting with the victory over Juventus, Inter Milan once won 10 consecutive games, showing good form. However, with their draw held to a draw by Udinese in the 23rd round, they have only won one of their last three matches and their form has slipped. ”

"As you can see from this game, AC Milan didn't play very well, but Inter didn't create any decent chances.

"If Inter Milan loses, Juventus will be the happiest to lose, and Juventus are currently in first place in the standings with 56 points, while Inter Milan are second with 53 points. If this score is maintained until the end, the Juventus people will have the last laugh! ”
