Chapter 297: Bigfoot Breaks the Siege?

******

After listening to the referee blowing the whistle at the end of the first half, Adriano, who had just received the football, immediately roared at the referee in dissatisfaction, "Don't you see that we are still in possession?" We have one more chance to attack!! ”

The referee saw that Inter Milan was two goals behind at half-time, and he could fully understand Adriano's feelings, and it was understandable to vent, but ...... What he didn't expect was that his understanding was not understood by Adriano, and he continued to chatter.

The referee finally wants to maintain the authority of this suit on his body!

Captain Zanetti saw the referee walking towards the chattering Adriano with an unrecognizable face, and he knew that he was going to suffer! hurriedly went over to stop the referee and kept saying good things.

But his kind words did not win the favor of the referee, but received a warning from the referee.

The stubborn referee still gave Adriano a yellow card.

I don't know if it was the referee's yellow card that calmed Adriano down, or the captain Zanetti's words that calmed him down, in short, after the referee showed him a yellow card, the whole person quieted down and slowly walked into the locker room.

This scene has also become a part of the key commentary of the commentators of various TV stations during the intermission.

And Adriano's behavior became a microcosm of his poor performance throughout the first half.

******

After the start of the second half, Inter Milan made a big change, they replaced left-back Burdisso with striker Cruz and looked ready to make a big difference in the second half!

And that's exactly what happened.

With Cruz in place, Inter's attack is no longer as chaotic as in the first half, but is starting to become organized, as he does not look for opportunities to shoot with the ball like Adriano did, but passes the ball to his team-mates in better positions, while he continues to look for gaps and wait for opportunities.

This is what a good striker should be.

Although Adriano is not bad, he lacks a calmness!

If Adriano is a sharp sword, then Cruz is the sword of the heavy sword without a blade and hidden murderous intentions.

It has to be said that Mancini's substitution has received a very big effect.

In the eighth minute of Cruz's play, the 53rd minute of the game, he helped close the gap on the field.

That's how it was.

Cruz put his back to Marchena and then gave the ball to Veron, then Veron quickly split the side, Figo took the ball straight on the right without stopping, and Cruz grabbed the ball before Marchena and pushed the ball into the door of the Canizares handle.

In the following time, Inter Milan's attack seemed to be stimulated by this goal, and with the cheers of the fans in the stands, they launched wave after wave of offensive attacks to equalize the score on the field.

But Valencia also learned a lesson from the goal they conceded just now, no longer just marking the ball and not men, and there are no obvious holes in the defense.

In addition, Inter Milan's backline also has to prevent Valencia's rapid counterattack, and there are not many troops to attack, so as not to be used by the speed of Ailo and Vicente.

Pay for one's whistle!

Looking at the rhythm of the field, Flores also wondered if the team should strengthen their defense.

Because the two midfielders of Baraja and Albelda are still a little weak in defense, Albelda has not been able to participate in the attack in the first time in terms of switching from defense to attack.

After about five minutes, Flores really couldn't stand it, Aimar's state in this game was really a bit poor, basically he couldn't find anyone at the critical time, whether it was defense or offense, it seemed a little out of tune with the players on the field.

In the 64th minute, Valencia made personnel adjustments, replacing the inactive Aimar with Viana, while maintaining the hardness of the midfield, it also completely released the core figure Albelda.

******

Suddenly, the fans in the North Stand of the Meazza Stadium burst into cheers.

And this inexplicable cheer also brought Mancini back to his senses from his contemplation.

At this moment, Mancini's assistant, Fernando Orsi, walked over excitedly, "Roberto, good news...... Bratislava scored two goals in the second half to lead Porto! ”

"Huh?" Mancini was subconsciously stunned, obviously not expecting Porto to fall behind Bratislava away from home, "What did you just say??" ”

"Bratislava leads Porto at home!"

Fernando Orsi nodded excitedly.

After Mancini heard it clearly, his eyes were about to pop out with excitement, this is the most exciting news so far! In other words, even if this game is lost, it will not have any impact on Inter Milan's qualification.

If the current scoreline is followed, as long as they face Porto in the next round, they can qualify as long as they don't lose more than two goals.

But thinking about this, then the problem arises again!

Inter Milan is a world-class giant, so why should they leave the qualification for the next round? Why can't it be solved in this round?

Thereupon...... Mancini became hesitant!

Is it content with the status quo? Or the courage to open up??

Just when Mancini was still hesitating, the situation on the pitch changed dramatically.

Viana's arrival has fully released Albelda, so he can also put more energy into attacking, and no longer need to worry too much about the team's defense, as long as he can take care of it when switching from attack to defense.

*******

After Adriano received Cruz's pass, according to Cruz's run, Adriano should have done the ball back and then ran forward to respond, but... He was desperate to equalise the score.

What's more, he is two goals behind Iroh and must race against the clock.

Therefore, Adriano took the ball forward after receiving it, picked up his left foot and shot it, this time Ayala was well prepared, the ball hit his thigh and then bounced on his chest, and the ball fell to Viana who was chasing back to the right edge of the box.

Viana didn't have time to think about it, because Veron had already rushed to the side to prepare for the first counterattack, and out of the natural reaction of the defender, he drove the ball forward with a big kick.

Bigfoot again?

Flores shook her head, this ...... It's the epitome of Inter Milan's reduction of the score to one goal at the start of the second half, right?

Break the siege, break the siege, and break the siege again!

"Ugo, you should have passed it to me just now!" After the ball was kicked out, Albelda walked over and reminded Viana, because such a blind clearance would only give the opponent more opportunities to continue attacking.

Only by controlling the football at the feet of its own players when switching from defense to attack can the quality of defensive counterattacks be guaranteed.

"I know......" Viana, who is only 22 years old this year, is still a little afraid of the team's vice-president, nodding again and again, plus what he did just now is indeed against the manager's tactical thinking, although Veron seems to be rushing very fiercely just now, but as long as the player with a clear mind, even if it is a defender with rough footwork, he can easily wipe it over.

At this moment, an exclamation from the stands interrupted the conversation between the two.

******

Is it another siege breakdown?

But...... Why do you feel uncomfortable?

Zanetti looked at the football flying in the sky and couldn't help but think.

According to this trajectory, it should be easy for Marco to get, right?

Immediately, Zanetti subconsciously turned his head to look at Iro, who had been staring at him in the second half.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, it's shocking to see it!

My eyes are about to pop out!!

What about people??

The people are gone!!

Zanetti has a lot of experience, and the players who should defend themselves are gone, so ...... You can only go chasing football!

Zanetti made a quick 180-degree turn.

At the same time, the home fans in the stands exclaimed.

Mancini raised his head sharply with the exclamation from the stands, and subconsciously looked at his own half, and what was imprinted in his eyes was a big kick from Viana that seemed to be kicked at random, followed by a teenager in a white No. 22 jersey, like the wind sweeping over the green turf.

Iroh is chasing the ball!

A strong uneasiness welled up in his heart.

Iroh quickly chased towards the landing point, and Materazzi, who was standing at this point, naturally discovered that this is the essence of an excellent central defender, always paying attention to the personnel around him.

This time he was very sure, because he had already stuck his position in advance, and even if Eloh rushed over at that time, he would definitely not be able to get good fruit to eat.

At most, he will give the opponent a free kick more than 40 meters away from the goal, which is the confidence that an excellent central defender should have!

Materazzi confidently solidified his horse's steps, and just as he was ready, Atlaszi also ran over, and Materazzi pressed his left elbow on Elo's shoulder.

Iroh stared at the falling football, ignoring Materazzi on his shoulder, and instead glancing at David Villa's position.

At this moment, he even had the mind to think: At this time, David should accelerate forward, right?

Really!

David Villa is kicking off the acceleration!

And there is not a single Inter Milan defender by his side, only one Samuel is directly in front of him, and at his speed, Samuel will definitely only eat ashes!

As the ball got closer to Aelo and Materazzi, the latter using more force on his left elbow, the pressure on Aelo increased.

Is it going to waste David's run?

No!

The center of gravity of Iro's body quickly decreased, his legs were half-bent, similar to the movement of Zamabu, and then the soles of his feet were violently forced, and Materazzi's elbow was thrown away by Iroh in a sudden way, and then stood in place and watched Iroh jump high and head the ball.

******

"Hugo Viana's big foot clearance? Hey, it's Bigfoot again! Isn't it possible to organize an attack properly? Hyde shook his head and explained the clearance, and when he was about to say something like 'pass the ball to David when you counterattack and let him organize the attack', an exclamation from the stands made him look at the big screen again, "I take back what I just said!" Ai and Materazzi are entangled together, and David Villa on the other end of the camera has been activated, and ...... It seems that he is unmarked! Will Ai be able to swing the ball into a gap behind him? ”

So people's attention is on the two people who are entangled.
