Chapter 450: The First Steal
Five minutes later, players from Inter Milan and Lazio came out of the dressing room led by referee Morganti.
"Gao Xiaodong, Gao Xiaodong..."
Seeing the players come out, there was another round of enthusiastic cheers from the stands. The Huaguo fans couldn't wait any longer, wishing to see Gao Xiaodong's performance right away.
Players from both sides took a group photo and shook hands. The captains of the two sides, Zanetti and Rocky, exchanged team flags and badges.
The commentators He Hui and Liu Jianhong introduced the lineups of both sides.
Coincidentally, both Lazio and Inter Milan formed a 4312 formation in this game.
Inter Milan's lineup is: 12-Cesar/13-Maicon, 6-Lucio, 26-Chivu, 39-Thornton/5-Stankovic, 19-Cambiaso, 4-Sa Nettie/10-Gao Xiaodong/9-Eto'o, 22- Milito
Lazio's lineup is: 86-Muslera/2-Lichsteiner, 13-Sivilia, 87-Diakite, 11-Kolarov/32-Brocky, 33-Ba Ronio, 5-Mauri/8-Matuzaren/9-Rocky, 10-Sarat
Inter Milan's lineup is exactly the same as the lineup announced by Mourinho the night before, and no one has changed.
After Mourinho announced the lineup that day, he told players who had different ideas to go to him. Muntari and Samuel were too stupid and naive to really go.
In fact, Mourinho is dictatorial, and his formation will not allow the players to question. Even if the formation is wrong, Mourinho will stick to it. He pretended to be open-minded, but he wanted to see what the players' mentality is now after the personnel change.
After Muntari and Samuel went there, not only did they fail to get their seats, they were also hit by Mourinho's 10,000-point crit, and then went back in despair.
After Liu Jianhong said the last name, all the etiquette before the game was over.
"...with only one minute remaining until the start of the Italian Super Cup, this is a historic moment, the first time the Italian Super Cup will be held in Asia and the fourth time the Super Cup will be held outside Italy, Similarly, this is also the debut of Gao Xiaodong, China's number one star, on the land of the motherland. Although the game has not yet started, it must be a successful game. Previously, the box office record for a single domestic football game was set in the 2004 Asian Cup In the final match between the Hua Guo team and the Japanese team, the total box office revenue at that time reached 32 million yuan. In the matchup between foreign giants similar to Inter Milan-Lazio, in 1999, when the Premier League Manchester United visited Shanghai, it set a record of 30 million yuan at the box office.
Real Madrid's Galacticos also brought in box office revenue of 28 million, and today's Italian Super Cup has set a new historical record. The box office revenue of this game has exceeded 100 million... The game has begun, let us watch the game first... "
At that time, the needle pointed to 8 o'clock on August 8, which was the opening ceremony of last year's Olympic Games. The Italian referee Morgandi blew the whistle for the start of the game. The Italian Super Cup between Inter Milan and Lazio finally kicked off. .
It was Lazio who kicked off first.
Although the absolute main force of the transfer, Pandev and Ledesma, did not come, but Lazio was not conservative at all after the start. The players passed the ball decisively and powerfully, and they were positive and confident. They were not afraid of Inter Milan, which was full of big names. It seemed that Lazio Chairman Lotito and head coach Balardini are not bragging, they are fully prepared and really have ideas for the Super Cup.
After Inter Milan called the league for four consecutive championships, the championship gave the players full confidence in facing the Serie A team. When Lazio was actively attacking, they were not in a hurry to press. The players on the three lines stood up and waited for Lazio to attack.
The players of Inter Milan were not in a hurry, but the fans at the scene were in a hurry. They were all waiting for Gao Xiaodong's first touch with the ball.
The on-site commentator He Hui understood the fans' aspirations, and said: "Inter Milan played too calmly, they should increase the pressure, start the game to boost Lazio's morale, let Lazio play with confidence, and it will be difficult to play later... This is high Xiaodong's first match in China is also his first official match in Inter Milan, whether it is Chinese fans or Italian fans, everyone is looking forward to when Gao Xiaodong's first touch will come..."
Lazio did not find any loopholes in Inter Milan's defense after passing the midfielder. The Brazilian midfielder Matuzaren was in good condition and decided to use a breakthrough to tear apart Inter Milan's defense.
Matuzaren did not directly break through Cambiasso, who was facing him, but broke through the gap between Cambiasso and Zanetti.
This is a very tricky choice, once Cambiasso and Zanetti flank, Matuzaren has more options.
Sure enough, when Cambiasso followed up the defense, Zanetti also came to double-team.
At this time, the player's ability to handle the ball is most tested, unless he can break through before the two double-team.
Matuzaren got the ball well timed, passed the ball to Zarate before Zanetti's toes, stopped himself and quickly ran back to his original position.
Zarate and Matuzaren have a tacit understanding, receiving the ball non-stop, and passing it directly to Matuzaren's running line.
Cambiasso turned around quickly and followed, but now the initiative is in the hands of Matuzaren. Matuzaren catches the ball and dunks, shaking Cambiasso.
However, before Matuzaren could finish his next move, central defender Lucio had already rushed over and destroyed the ball with one kick.
Batugno, the Lazio midfielder who inserted in the back, wanted to get the ball, but he hadn't touched the ball yet. Gao Xiaodong had already returned to the defense and rushed over from the side and rear. He kicked the ball first, and then passed Batu When Neo moved his hand again, Batunio staggered, then quickly rushed over and caught the ball.
"Xiaodong steals! Completed the first touch of the ball in the official game of Inter Milan!"
"The first ball is a steal! Beautiful!"
"The essence of this steal is not a steal, but a wretched one. Xiaodong's slap on Rabatunho is very sophisticated, which can prevent the opponent from coming to interfere in the first place."
Although this was just an ordinary steal by Gao Xiaodong, it drew applause from all the fans, and commentators from all over the world praised the beauty of Gao Xiaodong's steal.
However, the commentators are really not flattering. Gao Xiaodong's steal was based on superhuman speed, but the swipe at Rabattonio was the crystallization of 20 years of experience. It is difficult for an ordinary 19-year-old kid. Considering such a long-term, doing so wretched.
Mourinho nodded repeatedly. He didn't know that the system had given Gao Xiaodong 20 years of professional experience. He thought it was Gao Xiaodong's cleverness in playing football. He felt that with just one action, Gao Xiaodong would completely blow up the reckless Stankovi. strange.
