Chapter 778 Your Uncle Is Still Your Uncle
In the last period of the first half, neither side scored a goal, but it is clear that Notts County has gotten rid of the embarrassment of being behind on the road and regained control of the situation. Mancini's adjustment has little effect.
However, the game has been very exciting. For a long time, no team has been able to face Notts County to play a game that does not fall behind. Inter Milan used their performance to justify their name. They are worthy of being a traditional European giant!
But after reminiscing about the excitement of the first half, everyone will still unanimously sigh with emotion: Your uncle is still your uncle!
Even though Inter Milan played a rare and exciting game, the old-fashioned Notts County quickly adjusted the score after falling behind, and finally took control of the game. The dominance shown is extremely shocking.
It seems a bit too much to describe Notts County with the word old-fashioned. After all, the average age of Notts County's first team may be the lowest among all the giants, or even the vast majority of top teams, and it is far from old.
But Notts County's mature performance makes people have to give a thumbs up and sigh!
Is such a Notts County really going to dominate world football for ten years?
During the intermission, the different reactions of the two coaches in the locker room well reflected the difference in mentality.
Loew smiled and mingled with the players. Even Robben, who was punished by him, adjusted his mentality, chatted and spanked, and the atmosphere was relaxed, as if he didn't need to worry about the game at all;
Mancini, on the other hand, looked gloomy at his players in the dressing room, and kept telling the players how to play in the second half. Even if the players were not nervous, they would be made nervous by his appearance!
At the beginning of the second half, neither side made personnel adjustments. Notts County took the initiative and did not need to change actively, while Mancini had no cards in his hand. Although there were a few good players sitting on the bench, he changed. Will you be able to get immediate results?
Probably not!
Ribery and Messi are completely alive on the two flanks. Although Inter Milan has changed its formation to play four backs, the one-on-one ability of Messi and Ribery makes Inter Milan complain. Zanetti doesn't have such a high success rate, but Ribery is too brutal. Stankovic, who originally appeared in the right back position, is not very good at defending. Berry, was blasted out without any suspense!
Speaking of which, Stankovic is also unlucky. As a midfielder with excellent offense and defense, the former Yugoslav superstar, if Mancini is arranged in the midfield position,
Definitely a core-level player, but I don't know what Mancini's wind is. He actually uses him to top the cylinder when the team needs a full-back. It is estimated that he wants him to use more long passes in the backcourt to guide the team's offense. Bar.
This shows how contradictory Mancini is in his heart. He needs the full-back to defend, and he vaguely expects the full-back to assist with a long pass...
Stankovic was so blown away by Ribery that he couldn't even find the North, let alone a long pass assist, and he couldn't even defend.
In just five minutes from the start of the second half, Ribery had made a threat to Inter Milan's goal after breaking through Stankovic three times in a row, but unfortunately, both crosses were snatched by the tall Materazzi. At the first point, he cleared the siege and hit the net at the near corner with an inside cut shot, which was not even close to the goal.
Inter Milan is so embarrassed, let alone Mancini, Stankovic can't stand it!
There was no way, Mancini had to make adjustments again, fullback Worm replaced Martins, Stankovic appeared in the right midfielder, Inter Milan's formation also became 4231, and then Stankovic assisted Worm defends the superhuman Ribery together.
David knows about the player Worm. After all, he played in Brescia last season. After Brescia was relegated, David felt that he did not have much development potential, so he let him leave freely, but he unexpectedly changed. To become an Inter Milan player, the world is really wonderful!
From 343 to 442 and then to 4231, Inter Milan's formation change has evolved almost once in the tactical trend of nearly a dozen years.
However, by this time, the momentum of Inter Milan has been exhausted. From the initial attack without hesitation, to now having to arrange heavy defense, Inter Milan has actually handed over the initiative of the game by itself!
Ade himself is difficult to support in front. Although the Brazilian striker has faintly possessed the ability of a super striker, he still looks immature in the face of Notts County's defense line, and it is difficult to make a difference.
Mancini seems to have accepted his fate. If he can hold a draw, it will be Inter Milan's biggest victory. You must know that even last season, no team can draw Notts County in the Champions League knockout.
Inter Milan's offense couldn't come out, Notts County began to overwhelm Xu Xutuzhi with heavy troops, and they were playing away. They should not be anxious now. After all, this score is very favorable for Notts County. Going to the home court is equivalent to taking the initiative in your own hands. Of course, it will be better if you can win!
In the 70th minute of the second half, Notts County, who had the advantage but was unable to open up the situation, was replaced by the beast-like Drogba. This guy seems to have his own small universe. The first time he made physical contact with the opponent, he collided with Materazzi. A stumble.
Drogba's appearance suddenly made Inter Milan's penalty area stunned. Although Materazzi is tall and has excellent confrontation ability, standing in front of Drogba still doesn't feel good enough.
Needless to say, Drogba is replaced at this time, the players are very clear, directly greet the ball in the penalty area!
It feels like Loew's command of the game is like a game of chess, with links linked to each other, with far-reaching deliberation.
Ribery on the left attracted the defensive attention of two players from Stankovic Worm, left back Leighton Baines was freed, Drogba came on, and Baines crossed the power It is also reflected, two consecutive 45-degree balls have accurately found Drogba in the penalty area.
It's just a pity that Drogba's header was not able to send strength under the interference.
Although Materazzi will suffer some losses in the confrontation, he is not a muscular player with developed limbs and a simple mind. He has been immersed in Serie A for half his life. His defensive experience is unparalleled. Countless strikers were defeated, and it was he who played behind Drogba's back just now that Drogba fell.
But David knows that this is just a pediatric case. What really made Materazzi famous was the headbutt he seduced Zidane in the World Cup final... (To be continued.)
