Sacchi is no longer on the front line of coaching and is even ready to step into the pundit seat. But his eyes are still on his beloved Milan, and he chooses to become Milan's opponent and help other managers beat Jiangshan.
Galliani even communicated with Saki about this. Jiangshan supported Sachi's idea. He's got a great idea, and Milan will only keep improving if there are constant checks and balances.
Milan have a strong player and want to have stronger opponents to save them from problems in the Champions League.
A few years later, the big Paris of Ligue 1 swept the domestic team, and it still failed in the Champions League, there was no way, the domestic competitiveness was too poor, and the team could not maintain its intensity and progress.
Sacchi took the initiative to contact Mancini, and Mancini also communicated with Capello, how to deal with Jiangshan? The three managers have even formed a holy alliance.
Jiang Shan is very excited, he sees Inter's progress, and he also knows that other teams will definitely follow Inter's example, and even the next time they meet Juventus, Juventus may use this tactic.
The confrontation between Inter Milan and Milan is actually secretly a confrontation between Jiangshan and other coaches in Serie A. Before the game, Milan's series of winning streaks have made countless coaches red, who can be the first to defeat Jiangshan?
It's an exciting challenge. Now the responsibility falls to Mancini.
This game has also been broadcast in many countries in the Champions League, and countless managers are staring at Jiangshan's tactical changes, including Pep Guardiola in Mexico, Mourinho and Benitez in the Premier League, and the two old men of Manchester United Arsenal, are all paying close attention to Jiangshan's every move.
"Mancini has hope, this game is the first time he has pushed Jiangshan to the sidelines. Awesome, Serie A is not dead yet. β
"Adriano equalized the score with an unreasonable goal, Milan have no advantage now, will Jiangshan make a new adjustment?" Saki looked bareheaded, excited.
Roberto Mancini was on the sidelines, constantly directing the team forward, "putting pressure on them, continuing to press. Adriano, you're in the middle of the two centre-backs, the others, increase the intensity of the pass, give him the ball. β
Adriano is an absolute strong point, as long as Ade crushes Maldini and Nesta, are you still afraid that Milan will be undefeated?
Martins came to his senses, interspersed with a little quicker in his movements, and supported Adriano's body-crushing tactics.
"Adriano reminds me of Didier Drogba, these two guys with mutated bodies." Jiang Shan licked the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were full of crazy light.
With a wave of his arm, the team stepped back five metres closer to their own penalty area, "Milan's midfield is not in perfect shape. Neither Gattuso nor Ambrosini had the positional awareness of Busquets or Carrick. β
The team can only play a little more conservatively and control the tempo conservatively.
There were more people in front of the penalty area, and Adriano and Martins' movement was immediately limited. The help of Gattuso and Ambrosini made Inter's offensive collapse in front of the big penalty area in an instant.
Veron dribbled the ball and acted coquettishly and beautifully, but he couldn't get past Ambrosini, he and Kaladze closed the ball and neatly cut off the ball.
Kaladze played a long ball and knocked the ball across the half-court.
Kaka is running wild.
Inter flattened the formation, the thickness of the defense naturally increased, and the linkage between the players was simple. However, Jiangshan made the players retreat, unconsciously widening the space, and the formation was opened up again.
Kaka received the ball, and in front of him was already Inter's backline, and he stepped over and faced Corbardo, and the ball was divided.
At this time, Kaka is full of strength and has already shown a strong penetrating power. Unable to restrain Kaka, Corbado hung tightly behind him and ran fast.
Kaka was moving at high speed, quickly split the ball, and knocked it to Vieri behind the middle, Vieri didn't move much, but he was also running, and the speed was not slow.
In the face of Zanetti, he did not dare to slack off, and gave it to Shevchenko's side.
Shevchenko was sprinting, and suddenly he got up, and the ball was fast and urgent. Samuel touched the ball and Cesar struggled to keep it out of bounds.
Corner kick.
"Jiangshan's dispatch has turned the situation around. The team retreated slightly, which invisibly increased the space, and the cooperation between Kaka and the frontcourt players has given Inter enough threat. β
"I communicated with Jiang Shan before, and Jiang Shan very much hopes that Serie A can crack the passing and control tactics." Giorgia Parmas exclaimed on TV, "That's why Jiangshan chose to come to Italy. β
"But I felt a different change today, and Jiang Shan himself was thinking about cracking his own tactics. See? Milan's players were clearly trained against Inter's pressing and high defending. β
"Only when Adriano's body was crushed did Jiangshan get off the coach's seat." Giorgia Palmas was excited, "Moreover, Mancini's tactics had just worked, and Jiangshan immediately made adjustments and almost caused a goal. It can be said that Jiang Shan's tactical vision has surpassed Mancini's several people. β
Mancini worked hard and wanted to trip over Jiangshan, but there was no way, Jiangshan had already expected Mancini's tactics.
Mancini clutched his blue-black scarf, "Jiangshan's tactics are really ever-changing, we just scored, he opened up the space, it's not easy to do." β
The corner kick was not much of a threat and was controlled by Zanetti, the ball returned to midfield, and Veron attacked with the ball.
Veron's passing skills were equally impressive, with the Argentine magician passing the ball through the front court and into the feet of Adriano.
The cooperation of Argentines and Brazilians. Simple but wonderful.
Adriano distributed the ball to the wing, Milan was weaker on the wing, and just Zares came up.
Cutting inside on the wing, this is a small change. At the same time, Colbado went to the bottom and sought cooperation.
Caradze and Maldini felt the pressure, but Ambrosini showed up and blocked the space for Gonzares.
Gangzares could only split the ball on the side in advance, sent it diagonally, gave it to the feet of Corbardo, and quickly crossed, Martins was not strong enough to control the ball, and was destroyed by the veteran Nesta.
It's the same corner, and it's not much of a threat. Mancini shouted again, "Cambiaso, you have only one mission, which is to keep an eye on Pirlo and follow him wherever he goes." β
Mancini once again made a killing move, "Jiangshan, don't force me." It's your tactic, and I can only use it. β
Redeem.
He was prepared to sacrifice Cambiasso's playmaking skills to let VerΓ³n organize, and then use his defensive ability to mark Pirlo, as long as Pirlo was restricted, Milan's attack would be half paralyzed.
Jiang Shan gave a thumbs up, "This is the duel I want." You are smart to think of banning Pirlo. Moratti didn't find the wrong person. β
The tactic of Duzi was often used by Jiang Shan when he led the weak team in the past, blocking the opponent's organizational core and making the opponent's tactics unable to work, but now he has actually used it on himself.
Interesting.
Before the end of the first half, Inter had another good chance, but unfortunately they still couldn't break through the defense and score, and the game was still anxious.
