Chapter 178: This is Football! (1st Update)

However, although the offensive organization is basically on the verge of paralysis, but fortunately, everyone has done a good job on the defensive end, Inter Milan has not shot within the frame of the goal frame in the previous eight attacks, and Joe Hart's many saves are just pretending, and the opponent is completely scoreless. In this situation, it is difficult to maintain the competitive form and positive mentality of the home team players, and it can be roughly seen from the last two or three attacking results that they have started to be impatient. And once Inter's attacking options are in question and they can no longer maintain their previous high efficiency, then the opportunity for Torino to counterattack will come, and if they can further attract the opposition to press forward in the overall formation, then the quick counterattack of the front trident can definitely teach them a profound lesson. But just as Li Mudi was on the sidelines thinking that the trend of the next game would be tilted in favor of the away team, a big accident happened on the field, announcing that his wishful thinking was completely invalid.

In the 36th minute, the home team instigated an attack on the left side of their side, Banega cleverly played the veteran Wives, he handed the ball to the top of the arc of the visiting team's penalty area, Candreva received the ball and sent it through. Although Icardi was cleverly positioned to be on the same level as the Torino backline, Candreva was looking to surprise him by making his pass too hard, allowing Joe Hart, who reacted so quickly that he was the first to touch the ball from a metre out of the six-yard line. Just when everyone thought the link had been resolved, the England goalkeeper, who had made a fatal mistake as soon as he made a mistake, failed to catch the ball and instead pounced on the ball to the feet of Icardi, who did not have time to slow down and rushed towards him, who could not react to what had happened, and the ball bounced off his calf and into the net. 1-0, Inter Milan took the lead with this lucky goal after a number of unsuccessful shots. If that counts as a shot from the Inter captain, it would have been his seventh league goal from the woodwork with his ninth shot.

Li Mudi, who was a little confused by the accidental loss of the goal, only reacted after the restart, and hurriedly called for the players to concentrate on the next wave of impact from the opponent. Frank De Boer is worthy of being a well-known manager who once led the number one club in the Netherlands to win four consecutive league titles, and he still has two brushes, and the Torino players who know this time period will inevitably be frustrated by the goal conceded. So after taking the lead, Inter Milan not only did not slow down the attack, but became more active in the midfield, but fortunately, the coach of the away team reminded them in time enough, which did not give them any opportunity to take advantage of, but found the possibility of two counterattacks.

In the 39th minute, Bruno Perez smashed straight forward after breaking the ball at the back, and his cross from the right side of the penalty area was blocked by Eder, who was desperately trying to defend. A minute later, Candreva had another long-range attempt from the perimeter, but it was blocked by Akwa, who was desperate to block the gun's eye. In the 41st minute, Brozovic slashed precisely on the counter-attack, and Icardi burst in with the ball before Rosettini could shoot just wide of the other post. In the final minute of normal time, Jesse's free-kick hit the wall and was then broken.

After the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half, the two sides returned to their respective lounges with a 1-0 scoreline, the second time Inter went into the break with a lead this season, having won 2-0 at Empoli last time.

While commentators and commentators from various broadcasters were analysing why the home team was able to hold the opponent down, the Torino coach continued to comfort the players, especially Joe Hart. The reason why the Red Bulls, who have scored in the previous nine league games, cannot become a strong team in the eyes of the outside world is because the defense is not strong, except for the two weak teams that ranked first and third from the bottom in attack power against Empoli and Pescara, they kept the goal from conceding in the rest of the games, and a total of 11 goals were scored in seven games. Since playing England and becoming the team's starting goalkeeper, his state has not been able to compare with his previous time at Manchester City, making two big mistakes in his debut, the team lost in a row, and the subsequent games were still a decent performance, the goals that should not be conceded did not miss, and the goals that should be conceded did not bring any surprises. However, Li Mudi didn't expect to have someone of De Gea's or Buffon's level in front of the goal, and if he could continue like this, this level of performance would be acceptable. But who knows, this bomb still broke out today, Joe Hart's own attribute of giving gifts from time to time is really life-threatening, he didn't appear when he beat Bologna 6-1 and beat Palermo 4-1 before, and he did things when he got to an important game, who can stand it! However, at this point, there is no more to complain about, and we still have to quickly encourage everyone to recover their fighting spirit and try to find a good opportunity to equalize the score in the second half.

Before the restart of the second half, the visitors made a personnel change, with Rajadzic coming on to replace Jesse, who was underperforming and had some fitness problems. Inter still has the initiative on the field, the strength is above the opponent, this time it is a home game, luck seems to be on their side, it seems that there is no reason why the game cannot be won. After the referee blew the whistle for kick-off, the home side continued to put pressure on the offensive side to seal the win.

In the 46th minute, Mario made a long pass from the back, but Candreva's one-handed shot had fallen into the offside trap. Two minutes later, Ansaldi's cross was met by Brozovic's long-range shot from the edge of the box that went wide of the post, and Inter had yet to hit the woodwork once again. Thankfully, it wasn't long before Banega rewrote the embarrassing record, as his shot went limbly into Joe Hart's arms after being deflected by a defender. Eder then tried again to cut inside on the edge of the box and shoot, but it was still wide of the post.

After a long siege, the home team's players were finally unable to maintain their high morale and unsparing physical momentum, and when the game entered the hour mark, the Torino team finally found some room to fight back under the onslaught of the opponent. In the fiftieth minute, Bruno Pérez provided another assist to the front of the pitch and chose to solve the problem himself when there was no good connection point around him, but his long-range shot went over the crossbar.

In turn, the home team also missed three chances in a row. First, Candreva crossed from a free-kick on the right, Icardi's jump at the back post was a hair's length away from the ball, and there were no markers around him at the time; In the 60th minute, Banega's long-range shot from the edge of the penalty area was so powerful that everyone in the away team's dugout jumped up, but today's ball flew out of the bottom line as if it deliberately did not fly into the goal frame; The most regrettable moment for the home supporters was the chance in the 62nd minute, when Miranda threw Belotti in the box, but the referee did not say anything, which caused displeasure among Li Mudi and other players. However, Inter took the opportunity to play a textbook counter-attack, Handanovic threw a strong hand into Eder in the centre circle, and the Brazilian kept knocking the ball directly to Icardi at his side, who was keenly spotted by the holes of the Torino team after taking two steps and tucked the ball straight into the gap on the right. Brozovic cut in at high speed to kill in the penalty area, and in the face of Joe Hart's block, it was a powerful shot, but unfortunately the angle was too positive, and the English saved, and he immediately headed the ball again, but unfortunately he failed to hit the middle part in the panic, and the ball drew a high parabola over the crossbar, and there was a lot of sighs outside the field.

Reality once again verifies the wise saying that "those who waste their chances will be punished sooner or later", just after Brozovic missed this great opportunity, the Torino goalkeeper kicked the goal ball into the front of the field with a big foot, and Falke's unloading action after jumping failed to calculate the landing point, leaking the ball behind him, and it was this inadvertent flick that caused a series of mistakes by Inter defenders. The Brazilian central defender Miranda, who was behind Falke, did not expect the ball to leak over, and directly let Belotti behind him get the opportunity to possess the ball, only to see the new Italian international flying in the air with his chest in the direction of the opponent's goal, and then he was ready to turn around and rush with the ball, but who knew that Mouriillo, who was in charge of marking him before, and Ansaldi, who was in charge of guarding him, both judged their intentions, and both rushed to the landing point of the ball to intercept. This is the performance of the poor cooperation of the backline players, how can two people grab together in the case of two defenses and one, someone must stay to prevent the opponent from passing and facing the goalkeeper directly. However, luck also played a role here, and after the three men exchanged feet, the ball not only was not cleared out of the danger zone, but bounced towards the home team's goal. However, Colombian central defender Murillo not only lost his center of gravity and fell, but also tripped his teammate Ansaldi, who was about to continue to pursue the red bebe, and almost gave the opponent a chance to shoot a single ball. The Torino centre-forward, who is finally ahead of the current Serie A scorer list, did not miss this God-given opportunity, and before Miranda who rushed back put the tackle in place, he made a burst shot from the left side of about four meters from the small penalty area, and the ball crashed into the net from the top of Handanovic's hands who subconsciously made a save. 1-1, the Red Bulls equalized the score in an extremely passive situation.

Also because of an accident that led to the goal conceded, the Inter players also felt unbelievable, Li Mudi planned to take the opportunity to try if he could steal a chicken, and replaced the old captain Vives, who had not been able to play a defensive barrier before, with Benassi returning to the mode of one-man full-time defense and two-person attack. Unfortunately, the home team quickly calmed down and continued to use attacks to suppress Torino's ambitions to win. In the 65th minute, Candreva made a return in the penalty area, and Eder's follow-up volley was blocked by a defender; A minute later, Brozovic wasted another good chance to score, Candreva picked up a pass from the right, Icardi's header was ferried, and the Croatian midfielder's header close to the ambush on the other side was blocked by Moretti in front of the goal, almost all the Inter players held their heads with their hands and looked like hell, if you vote now for who is today's undercover agent, then Brozovic will definitely be unanimously elected. In the 67th minute, Eder's free-kick shot failed to cross the wall of the Torino team, and he proved to everyone with facts: there is more than one undercover agent!

Seventy minutes into the game, the home team's dominance on the pitch was less pronounced, and fitness still limited their seemingly tidal attack. The visitors, who gradually got the ball back, didn't have a good way to attack, but strengthened the crosses from the two flanks, and substitutes Avilar's youngsters Bareca and Bruno Pérez sent several shells into the box on both flanks, but Belotti couldn't get any chances under Miranda's watch, and Handanovic's interception and cross ability was also very good, and the pass that landed too close to the goal could not get out of his control.

In the 73rd minute, Candreva's shot from the right side of the box was confiscated by Hart, and a minute later, Eder's diagonal cross from the left was not very accurate, and Candreva completed a close-range header from a tight angle, but it was still deflected. Frank de Boer only remembered that he still had three substitutions in his hands, and replaced Eder with Argentine pigtails Palacio, who had missed all five of his previous attempts. Li Mudi expressed great regret about this, with this undercover agent on the field, Torino's goal is safer, but it's a pity......

In the rest of the game, both sides had a good number of shots on goal, but most of them were very simple choices, basically long-range shots and wide crosses, and it was difficult to pose any threat to the goalkeeper. Just when it was thought that a draw would be inevitable if the Red Bulls, who were very good at scoring late in the game, could not do so, Inter made a quasi-stunner. In the 87th minute, Palacio crossed from the left, Icardi turned deftly in a step inside the penalty area, and volleyed vigorously before Rosettini blocked, Joe Hart stretched his body and made a flying save, and the ball flew into the upper right corner of the goal like lightning, 2-1, with the crazy shouts of the home fans all over the field, the Inter coach finally breathed a sigh of relief, as if he was glad that the coach was temporarily retained.

The Torino team, which has always been good at killing opponents, was killed by someone else, which is really a topic worth analyzing after the game, and it seems that those media have a substitute for talking about comfort after failing to look forward to the big topic of class and succession. However, before the game could enter stoppage time, the Meazza Stadium suddenly turned from noise to quiet, and at the 89th minute and 53rd minute, Rajadzic used a very strange move to drive an even more bizarre corner, the two visiting centre-backs completed a header relay, and finally the veteran Moretti completed a real whistle-blowing, he smashed the ball into the top corner of the net at the back post. 2 to 2, Frank De Boer's face turned white all of a sudden! On the other side, Li Mudi frantically slapped his colleagues and substitute players who hugged him to vent his excitement while shouting in his mouth: "This TM is damn football!" ”

At the same time, a very strange scene also occurred in the field, after the goal, Moretti shouted and hugged the defensive partner who gave him the assist, while Farke and Benassi and others found Rajjdzic near the corner flagpole nearby to celebrate, but who knew that the Serb not only did not take the initiative to meet him, but instead ran to the players' tunnel with his butt covered and trotted, and everyone looked confused, what is the situation?
