Away team dressing room at Meazza Stadium.

The Roma players had a smile on their faces, and they had a very good result in the first half of the game with Zhang Tiehan's goal, so everyone was relaxed and they took advantage of the fifteen minutes to laugh and rest.

The first half was really tiring.

The defensive players are okay, the offensive players run too much, although the tactics are mainly attacking, and even Drinel specially told the frontcourt players, especially Cassano, Montella and Zhang Tiehan, to pay attention to when the opponent counterattacks, do not retreat too much, that will make them fall into the embarrassing situation of running back and forth, but it has no effect, their main task is to attack, but even so, whenever Inter Milan counterattacks, they still have to retreat to the middle line - at least, otherwise there are fewer people involved in the defense, and there will be a crisis in the backfield.

There were several times when Inter Milan pushed the attack, and Zhang Tiehan retreated to the penalty area to participate in the defense, which was also helpless.

Running all over the field like that is very physically draining, let alone exerting on offense.

So every Roma player looked tired, but they still didn't forget to congratulate Zhang Tiehan on his goal, the twenty-fifth league goal, which is a significant number, because last season's top scorer in Serie A, the Ukrainian 'nuclear warhead' Shepchenko who played for AC Milan, only scored twenty-four goals, which means that even if Zhang Tiehan does not score from now on, he is likely to become the top scorer in the league.

It's just that this season is also a bit dangerous, and that's because of Parma's Gilardino, Gilardino scored 23 goals last season, and so far this season has scored 19, and with a small half of the league left, it is not difficult for Gilardino to break through 25 goals.

But 25 goals are still worth congratulating, especially the goal just now. It was an away goal against Inter.

Many Roma players, including Cassano, Montella and others, are a little jealous of Zhang Tiehan...... Cassano is on the outside, Montella is holding it in his heart, and the other players have more or less some ideas, after all, Zhang Tiehan has scored too many goals. People have to be jealous, but at the same time they also admire Zhang Tiehan's ability, not everyone can score in Zhang Tiehan's position, such as Mido, who left in the winter, whether it is Worrall or Drinel have given him a chance, but his appearance is quite ...... Stupidity.

Others, such as Cassano and Montella, also did not do well in Zhang Tiehan's position, because the players in that position would be focused on defending by the opponent. It's hard to play in that kind of defense.

And Zhang Tiehan should take special care of the other party, but he can always score goals, which is very unusual.

They are just envious and jealous, but they can't hate it, after all, their strength is not as good as others, even if they are given a chance, they can't do better than Zhang Tiehan.

So everyone is still convinced of Zhang Tiehan.

What's more, Zhang Tiehan's popularity in the team is not bad. At least a few of the main players have a good relationship with Zhang Tiehan, as for the fringe players of those teams. Zhang Tiehan is like a mountain to them, looking at Zhang Tiehan's appearance or something, it feels a little out of reach, let alone jealousy.

It's like a schoolboy who is entitled to be jealous of the talent of an academician of the Academy of Sciences?

The gap between the two may be so big.

Especially for a lot of young players in the Roma squad. They are the fringe of the Roma first team, and they need a chance to play, even if there is no Zhang Tiehan, their status cannot be changed, this is the absolute ability gap.

……

The atmosphere in the home dressing room was not so good.

Inter Milan are one goal behind. It wasn't a good feeling to be suppressed by Roma in the first half, so when we got back to the dressing room, no one spoke loudly, and most of them sat in their places resting and didn't want to say a word.

Adriano is also one of them.

In the first half, Adriano had almost no expression, he was very annoyed and helpless, he didn't show it, in fact, his teammates didn't pass any good balls, he still needed the support of his teammates if he wanted to score, and without support, he couldn't play at all.

He thought so, but he didn't want to say it.

If it was okay before, Adriano was quite good in the team, he was qualified to say something, but in recent times, he has not been in good form, he has not scored since Christmas, he thinks that his table is a little bad, the more Adriano feels that other people will say something about him, they whisper, behind his back, he can't hear it, but he just knows.

Adriano is very proud inside, so he won't ask anyone else for anything.

If you pass the ball well, I will try my best, and if you don't pass the ball, I will also work hard, but it is not my responsibility to lose the team!

These words were in Adriano's heart.

Mancini walked away and looked at Adriano as he entered the dressing room, then shook his head helplessly.

Adriano was sitting in the corner with a headphone in each ear, he was listening to music to relax, but Mancini knew that the Brazilian kid was very arrogant and it was very unrealistic to expect him to take the initiative to communicate with other people.

So he said, "We were in the first half, and the attack was too impatient. Be careful not to be driven by the fast pace of Roma, we play ours, they play them, we have to steady the attack, pay attention to pass the ball to Reiter. ”

Reiter is Adriano's name, and his full name is Reiter Ribeiro Adriano.

Mancini's words, the players listened. Although Mancini only arrived at Inter Milan in the last summer, his prestige is not bad, after all, at a young age, Mancini was a famous star in Italy, he played for Sampdoria for 15 years, and then won the Serie A title with Lazio in 2000.

Now he's a coach.

It can be said that in the coaching industry, Mancini is still a rookie, but he can already coach a big club like Inter Milan, and after more than three years of coaching, he can coach Inter Milan, and Mancini's ability is still quite good.

After Mancini finished the first half, he began to plan the tactics for the second half, and he analyzed the strategy that Roma might adopt, "They can't attack all the time, the biggest possibility is to shrink the defense in the second half, they will play defensive counter-attacks. In this regard, they have a certain advantage, especially the stupid big man of number thirteen, who is quite fast. ”

At the mention of Zhang Tiehan, Mancini's face darkened, and he didn't use any good words.

"All we need to do is stabilize the formation. Push the attack, don't be too impatient, even if we are behind, but it's just a ball, we need to be steady. Defensively, Esteban (Cambiasso), pay attention to your position and don't attack too far forward, and Ivan (Córdoba). You're going to stay in the backcourt all the time, and if you need a fork, Marco [Materazzi] is enough alone. ”

Mancini mentioned a couple of players before concluding, "In short, we have to look for a steady game, a steady game, and Roma must not be an opponent. At the same time, it is necessary to pay attention to their counterattacks and not let them sneak attack. Ivan, you have to keep an eye out for that stupid big guy at all times, even if he's not holding the ball. ”

Mancini emphasised this point in particular.

At half-time, coupled with the previous analysis, Mancini knew Zhang Tiehan quite well, and he knew that Zhang Tiehan was not the kind of player who needed the ball to threaten. This is the case with Adriano, for example, when Adriano does not have the ball, the threat is very small, and Zhang Tiehan is completely different from him, Zhang Tiehan will use his body. Use his speed to find the best position, and when he gets the ball, it's probably the final blow.

If he gets the ball, especially in Roma's advance, he is not much of a threat, because his dribbling, his passing, is really limited.

All right...... That's a compliment, and it's fair to say that his dribbling is pretty poor – compared to a world-class striker like Adriano.

……

In the visiting dressing room, Drinel was also setting up the tactics for the second half, "We had a ball advantage in the first half and I think everyone would think we were going to play on the counter-attack in the second half, so I wanted to surprise them. ”

Drinel waved his hand fiercely, "We still have to attack!" Offensive! ”

Listening to the head coach say this, the Roma players are in good spirits, and Zhang Tiehan is the same, he likes the team's attack, which means that he has more opportunities, instead of standing in the front court and doing nothing, only watching his teammates defend passively, which is really bad.

But the second half is still attacking, which requires a lot of courage for Roma, after all, they have a ball advantage, and the attack means that if Inter Milan also attacks, their one-goal advantage is likely to be quickly caught up or even overtaken, of course, there is also a chance to open up the score gap, in that case, Inter Milan has little chance.

Thinking about it this way, the Roma players suddenly found that the 'old guy' Drinel is sometimes really courageous-

Very adventurous!

But this also shows from Drinel's tactics, Roma is good at attacking, he advocates more attacks, and even tactically, pursues an extreme, whether this is correct or not, is not something that the players should consider, but at least so far, everyone feels good, the team results are good, they don't need to question this, after all, this kind of game is really hard to play.

From the first half of the game against Inter Milan, the attacking tactics were perfectly fine.

But there is still the second half, no one can guarantee whether they can win or not, all they need to do is to work the field.

Then Drinel mentioned Zhang Tiehan, "You have to pay attention to Zhang's position, pass the football more, you can see in the first half, in fact, the opponent doesn't have much to do with Zhang, if Zhang gets the ball, Antonio, you and Vincenzo try to fork forward." ”

"Zhang, how much chance do you have a long shot, use a long shot to threaten the opponent's goal, you must remember that you are not alone in the front court, you still have teammates!" Drinel emphasized.

Zhang Tiehan nodded, meaning that he knew.

Of course, he understands what Drinel means, usually, at least mostly, when the football comes to his feet, it means that the offense is over, whether it is scoring or not, he rarely passes the ball to his teammates again, but Drinel makes the team focus on his position, there will definitely be a lot of opportunities, sometimes he doesn't have a chance, he must pass the ball, after all, he can't waste offensive opportunities.

Everyone else looked at Zhang Tiehan, and Zhang Tiehan nodded affirmatively, "Sir, I know what to do." ”

"Good."

Drinel pressed down with both hands and summed up the tactics, "Our tactics are very simple, I believe that the opponent will definitely attack, we have to play against them, it is a gamble, as long as we can score first, they will not have a chance!" Remember that, don't think about anything else, we need to score, score, destroy them with goals! (To be continued......)
