After scoring this goal, Gao Jun looked very excited, because this was the first time since he joined Inter Milan to re-receive a teammate's pass and shoot to score, and it was also his favorite through ball, as if he had returned to Dresden at once, Gao Jun excitedly rushed to the Brazilian McCone who gave the assist, and praised him in Spanish, "The pass just now is really good!" ”

After seeing this crucial goal, Mourinho on the sidelines also waved his hand excitedly, and then smiled and stretched out his thumbs to the two people who made meritorious contributions to express encouragement and praise. Even the Inter fans, who have always been unfriendly to Gao Jun, applauded him for the first time, although not very enthusiastically

"Sure enough, the significance of the derby is unusual, Gao Jun can score a goal to change the attitude of Inter fans, if he comes to a hat-trick, it is estimated that everyone will be conquered by him." , Huang Jianxiang laughed.

Zhang Lu sighed, "It's not easy to score a hat trick at the San Siro Stadium, regardless of AC Milan's strength, this game is still their home stadium!" ”

That's right, in their home stadium, AC Milan will not admit defeat lightly, and they are more offensive when they are one goal behind. In the 18th minute, Brazilian striker Pato received the ball near the corner of the small penalty area and turned and fired a left-footed shot, if it weren't for Inter Milan's Argentine central defender Samuel who blocked the ball with his body, AC Milan would probably have equalized the score

Due to Gao Jun's relationship with Wu and Wu, Huang Jianxiang is obviously more supportive of Inter Milan when commenting now, "Samuel's position in Inter Milan has been awkward before, but since the Brazilian Lucio joined, Mourinho may have taken into account the fact that the two speak the same language, so Samuel started to form a central defender partner with him, and the table is getting better and better in these games." It seems that there is a lot of hope for the main position."

"It's not just the language, right? The characteristics of the two are also more complementary, and I think these two may really become the world's top centre-back combination, hehe. Zhang Lu added with a smile.

However, AC Milan were not discouraged by this attack, as their Brazilian trident showed a strong attacking force up front, and the tide of attack made Inter Milan's backline a storm. 24th minute. Kaka, who is still in his prime, used his outstanding skills and speed to force a breakthrough on the left side and then passed back in an inverted triangle, and another former World Footballer in the AC Milan team, Xiao Luo, was outflanked in time and volleyed with his left foot near the line of the small penalty area, but was magically saved by Inter Milan's goalkeeper Cesar!

Less than 5 minutes later, AC Milan once again created a killing chance, Zambrotta, who assisted to the front, sent a cross to help teammate Pato form a single knife, but at this time, the linesman raised the flag to signal Pato offside, which made AC Milan's dangerous attack come to an abrupt end. Once again, Inter Milan escaped.

Although the score on the field was still a one-goal lead, the increasingly passive situation made Mourinho a little unable to sit still. McCann's through ball had made Mourinho see the possibility of Gao Jun giving full play to his strength in the new formation, but with the strengthening of AC Milan's attack, Inter's two fullbacks were forced by defensive pressure and rarely had the opportunity to step forward to assist the opponent's hinterland, and Stankovic in front did not change his style of play because of Gao Jun's previous goal, and directly terminated a dangerous attack of Inter Milan with a fruitless long-range shot

Mourinho was very dissatisfied with this, and the idea of adjusting the personnel on the field also came to his mind. However, at the moment, Stankovic's defensive ability is very important. Even Jose Mourinho, known as the "madman", would find it difficult to take such a risk while his side is still ahead. So in the end, Mourinho just bluntly asked Stankovic to play more to his teammates when he ran to the sideline to throw a throw-in, and didn't always shoot from distance himself, hoping that he would make a change. However, judging by the course of the game that followed, it was clear that Stankovic did not listen to the new manager's words

However, in the 35th minute, Inter Milan still had a chance to extend the score. AC Milan striker Pato, who was returning to the defense at the time, brought down Inter left-back Zivo on the right side of the penalty area and gave Inter Milan a well-placed free kick, but Lucio's close-range header was unbelievably saved by AC Milan goalkeeper Abbiati! Countless AC Milan fans in the stands breathed a sigh of relief that if they were two goals down in a derby, it would be a difficult game

And what even these die-hard AC Milan fans didn't expect was. Less than a minute after this crisis, AC Milan equalised! Inter's corner kick was pushed out by AC Milan's defenders, but unexpectedly formed a very threatening quick counterattack, Xiao Luo won the ball on the left side and passed directly to the right side of the high-speed forward compatriot Kaka, the amazing speed of the latter rode directly down to the bottom and sent a high-quality cross, in time to follow up to the back point Xiao Luo jumped high and pushed the ball into the gate without being marked, and the score on the field was 1:1!

This lightning goal turned the home stands into a sea of joy, and Inter coach Jose Mourinho rushed to the linesman excitedly, angrily pointing to his eyes to express dissatisfaction, just now he saw clearly, when Xiao Luo made a long pass, Kaka was in an offside position! So it's a definite miscalculation, and it's no wonder Jose Mourinho is so angry, but then again, even if it's not a miscalculation, as long as there is a slight suspicion of miscalculation, the manager with great personality will definitely jump out and put on a show to put on a show and put pressure on the referee.

After the goal, AC Milan's offensive was more vigorous, and the two commentators were worried, Mourinho's face became more and more gloomy, but because there was little time left in the first half, he still calmed down, and waited until halftime to make a substitution, Stankovic, who always likes his long-range shots, was replaced, and he was replaced by Adriano, who played as a striker, although the former "king" of Inter Milan is not as good as before, and was loaned back to Brazil last season for half a year, But Mourinho, who is very eager to win this Milan derby, can only do this now, because there is no playmaker in the team who is worthy of the big responsibility, so Mourinho can only replace a striker, and then let Gao Jun change to Stankovic's position, and Mourinho also told him that he does not need to return to his own half like Stankovic, he only needs to counter-attack after losing the necessary goal, and the focus should be on attack.

Mourinho's adjustment may be a bit risky, but it gives Gao Jun a lot of room to play freely, with two high-impact strikers in front of him to help him attract the defense, even if no one feeds Gao Jun the ball, he can change to a shadow striker and suddenly dribble forward from behind the two strikers to create a killing chance. And if the two strikers run out of the air, with Gao Jun's passing ability and selfless style of play, they can also give the two more support than Stankovic before. Of course, Stankovic, who was substituted, was very unhappy with this, and he sat there without saying a word, but Mourinho always focused on the interests of the team as a whole, and he believes that his adjustment has a better chance of helping Inter win this crucial Milan derby.

However, Mourinho's changes did not have an immediate effect, and AC Milan remained firmly in control of the pitch after the start of the second half. However, Mourinho did not regret it immediately, because he already knew that Gao Jun was not the kind of player who was good at controlling the game, he was a killer and only good at creating killing chances, whether it was scoring or passing

In the 51st minute, Inter Milan, which has been very passive since the start of the second half, played a quick counterattack, McCann, who already had an assist in this game, made a direct long pass to the penalty area in the high-speed dribble, and the former "king" Adriano headed the ferry, and the high-speed follow-up Gao Jun volleyed the ball in the middle, making Inter Milan lead again!

"Gao Jun! It's Gao Jun again! It was only his second shot of the game, but it was already a brace, and his efficiency did not diminish at all! As long as there are enough shots on goal, he is still the same high army that scores goals! On the much-anticipated San Siro Stadium, he silenced tens of thousands of AC Milan fans today! Huang Jianxiang's long-suppressed passion suddenly broke out, and his voice became even more hoarse due to his hoarse screaming.

And the Inter fans, who had always had some prejudices against Gao Jun before, finally gave him warm applause, not the applause of a few people when the first goal was scored, but the full affirmation of the Inter fans in the field. A derby is a derby, and after Gao Jun scored a brace, Inter fans' perception of him has fundamentally changed!

However, after Gao Jun's goal, the most excited was Inter Milan coach Jose Mourinho, who rushed into the field at the speed of a 100-meter sprint as if he had scored a goal and wanted to celebrate with Gao Jun, because Gao Jun's goal not only made Inter Milan lead again, but also proved that Mourinho's gamble was successful, at least initially

But at this time, there was a very interesting episode on the field, because Gao Jun rushed to Adriano, who gave him an assist, as soon as he scored, and hugged him warmly to express his gratitude, so that he didn't see Mourinho rushing over, and as a result, Mu Shuai, who originally wanted to celebrate passionately with his disciples, was unexpectedly hung there and was cold (to be continued......
