Chapter 623: Three-front combat
Roki's dismissal really scared the Lazio players.
It's obviously normal to play football on the field, at most, it's a little bit more small, how can you get such an amazing revenge!
And it's the kind of mysterious revenge, after all, no one has any evidence that it was Vardy's hand.
You don't have to use an unwarranted aura of amusement as an excuse to complain about Vardy.
The first half was over quickly, and when we returned to the dressing room with a score of 2-0, everyone felt that the big picture was decided.
As a matter of fact, Lazio's attacking ability was not very good, and the real threat posed by Inter's tight defense was limited, and there was only the possibility of Inter continuing to break through in the second half.
If the home team scores more than 3:0, then even away from home, Inter will not leave any chance for Lazio, and there is little suspense about advancing to the Coppa Italia final.
Roberto Mancini was still in the dressing room calmly arranging the second half, but the players were not fully focused because the quality of the opposition really didn't give them much urgency.
On the contrary, they are still amused by Roki's bad luck, how can a person be so unlucky on the field?
In fact, before Vardy's appearance, there were all kinds of embarrassments on the pitch, but it was not mainstream.
But since Vardy's debut, it seems that even the game has become unmainstream in the game with Vardy.
It's not uncommon for someone as unlucky as Rocky to be sent directly to the hospital from the court, so there's really no need to make such a fuss.
So, a lot of people have come to the conclusion that against Vardy, it's better to focus on playing and not trying to provoke Vardy, because the result is likely to be something you can't afford.
Who can mess with Vardy and end up safe?
Do you really think that those who are directly admitted to the hospital are kind people?
Even behemoths like the FA and the Italian media have to bow their heads in front of Vardy?
So, either you don't mess with Vardy, or you're prepared to die not so much.
Sure enough, because of the strong deterrent force, Lazio really relented, not only did not dare to look for trouble, but even appeared powerless to attack.
Of course, Inter did not be polite to Lazio, and said that if it was a bloodbath, it would be done.
It's like when a person breaks the law, he can't let him go just because he admits his mistakes and has a good attitude, he always has to bear the consequences for his mistakes.
The Lazio players bullied Inter's little ball boys, and Vardy did not continue to use them as a target for teasing, which is already considered merciful, and as for the bloodbath, this is not negotiable at all.
As a result, Inter's attack in the second half was even more ferocious, and Lazio was defeated.
In the 58th minute, after a series of smooth cooperation from Inter, Ibrahimovic scored in the small penalty area and rewrote the score to 3:0.
In the 73rd minute, substitute Suazzo went to the meeting single-handedly and scored after getting rid of two defenders in a row, and the score became 4:0.
In the 81st minute, Inter's strong attack pressed the Lazio players to score an own goal by themselves, and the score became 5:0.
Although Inter did not score again in the last 10 minutes, the score of 5-0 was enough for Lazio to lose in disgrace.
What's more, the score was enough to guarantee Inter a place in the Coppa Italia final.
Who still believes that Lazio can return to the field and beat Inter with a score of more than 5:0?
Inter have lost only a handful of times this season, let alone big losses.
It is not appropriate to describe Inter as having one foot in the door of the Coppa Italia final, and Inter's whole body has already entered the door.
It seems that Inter and Roma may have to meet in the Coppa Italia final.
In the other semi-final, Roma won comfortably and, unsurprisingly, will meet Inter in the final.
If Roma is Inter's rival in Serie A, it is a bit of a gold on Roma's face, although Roma are currently second in the standings and are likely to remain second at the end of the season, but the gap between Roma and Inter is really not ordinarily large.
Seven rounds ahead of schedule, who would dare to say that the two teams are on the same level?
However, the cup competition is different from the league, especially the cup final, a decisive winner, this system will first infinitely shorten the distance between the two sides, and no one dares to guarantee that there will be no accidents in a game for 90 minutes!
......
After the first leg of the semi-final against Lazio, Inter returned to the league and sent the reserve team to play Torino away.
Inter Milan has completely changed from the previous big devil to a point boy, after winning the championship, any team wants to meet Inter, because Inter really dares to release water!
Even Roberto Mancini used his illness as an excuse to let the assistant coach take the team away from home, not taking the league very seriously.
Mancini is not afraid of punishment, he is about to leave anyway, even if the suspension has nothing to do with the overall situation, Inter Milan has already won the championship anyway, and he can be a little easier!
Unsurprisingly, Inter lost away to Torino, and the reserves, despite their tenacity, struggled against a higher-quality opponent.
When the reserve team is competing away from home, Mancini has been training with substitutes, although it is unlikely to win the Champions League semi-finals, but he can't give up before the game is played.
Chelsea have led Grant all the way to the last four of the Champions League, which has equalled Chelsea's best Champions League result.
originally thought that after reaching the semi-finals, he would face the powerful Inter, even Grant had no bottom in his heart, you know, any giant team facing Inter Milan may be more than lucky.
But Grant never expected that in the quarterfinals with Arsenal, a group fight between the two sides occurred, and all of a sudden Inter Milan was greatly injured, and all the main players were suspended.
It's pie in the sky!
Needless to say, if you can't win Inter's main force, can't you win Inter's substitute?
Grant seems to have seen the Champions League final beckoning to Chelsea.
Looking at the jujube that Mancini brought to London, if Chelsea loses to such an Inter, without the help of the fans, Grant himself will collapse himself with a gun.
In the pre-match press conference, Gran deliberately said that Chelsea would directly kill the suspense of the second leg at home and directly seal the qualification for the final, and he did not believe that such a squad of Inter Milan would make any waves at Stamford Bridge.
The media actually thinks the same way, with Inter's substitute lineup, which is at most the middle and upper reaches of Serie A, and can't even qualify for Europe, how can it compete with Chelsea?
So the public opinion is simply one-sided, and even the Inter players are infinitely pessimistic.
It's just that Grant didn't realize that his high profile was ruining his character.
Inter's bench was not as strong as the main one, but it wasn't to the point where Chelsea could easily crush it, and Grant was a little too early to be happy.
The main goalkeeper Cesar is not suspended and can play in this game;
In rear, Cordoba and Burdisso were in charge, while Zivo and captain Zanetti were the two wing-backs;
Maniche is in midfield, with Solari and Suazzo on either side;
The forward line is the partnership of Balotelli and Crespo;
In terms of strength, there is definitely a gap with Chelsea, but it is by no means without the strength to fight.
At the beginning of the game, Inter Milan was dominated by the opponent and attacked like a bamboo.
In Mancini's belief, instead of using an unstable defense to win a draw, it is better to fight with Chelsea to attack, even if they lose in the end, it is still a defeat, and no one will laugh at Inter for their failure.
Therefore, Inter's attitude is to fight Chelsea to the end.
Crespo was definitely the world's top striker at his peak, and Balotelli was immensely talented, plus an extremely fast Suazzo, and the three were enough for the Chelsea defence.
There is also Maniche's violent bombardment in midfield and Solari's brainless breakthrough, which is not systematic, but Chelsea are also overwhelmed by the nonsense.
So what was presented to the fans was a somewhat absurd game, no one thought that Inter would dare to attack head-on and take the lead by scoring first.
In the 9th minute of the first half, Balotelli took advantage of the goalmouth scuffle to stab and score, which perfectly interpreted the meaning of Super Mario.
Balotelli was so crazy after the goal that he didn't even know how to vent his excitement, so he just picked up a piece of turf, stuffed it in his mouth, and chewed and swallowed it.
Chelsea fans are dumbfounded, what kind of monster are Chelsea playing against?
However, Vardy was inexplicably overjoyed to see the scene on the TV, and it was estimated that Balotelli would receive a list of maintenance fees from Stamford Bridge after the game......
However, fans were not too surprised after marveling at Balotelli's fierceness, because Balotelli, like Vardy, has also become a representative of comedy, and there is no need to make a fuss about anything.
Chelsea were beaten in a daze, or rather, they were a little ill-prepared because they didn't have Inter's second-tier squad in mind.
But now it's good, when the opponent is ahead, they can't play a little bit.
Taking advantage of the chaos of Chelsea, Inter Milan launched a ferocious offensive again, and there was a great tendency to directly overturn Chelsea, and the whole world was crazy about Inter's madness.
Even Inter once again threatened the Chelsea goal and came close to scoring.
However, after Chelsea reacted and stabilized their position, Inter did not have many chances.
In the end, Chelsea won the first leg of the semi-final with a 3-1 home win over second-tier Inter.
The result was in line with everyone's expectations, but everyone was still impressed with Inter, who still did not give up in such a situation and caused Chelsea a lot of problems away from home.
It's hard to say if Chelsea have a chance to make mistakes on the road.
