Chapter 468 It’s Dangerous to Underestimate the Enemy

In the opening minute, he forced the opponent to make a pass error, and easily penetrated into the opponent's penalty area to complete the shot. Then Gao Xiaodong took a corner kick, and Lucio grabbed a header and almost broke the goal of the Bari team. Seeing how strong the opponent is So weak, the Inter Milan stars who were quite cautious at first couldn't help feeling contemptuous. update the fastest

The fans of Inter Milan were also completely relaxed, and they all taunted:

With this strength, come to Serie A?

Is this a reserved place for relegation?

If you don't rush to buy a few strong players before the summer transfer window closes, you will definitely have to fight for relegation.

...

The commentator Reka said: "In the past two seasons, Inter Milan's season debut was a draw, and this season should not continue to be tied."

There are two consequences of underestimating the enemy. One is that the running is not so active, and the other is that the players' personal performance is more motivated.

If you are not active in running, you will have fewer points to pass the ball. If your performance is strong, you will be even less willing to pass the ball. If you pass the ball less slowly, the team's offensive rhythm will slow down.

It was the first time for the Bari team to play in Serie A. In their debut, they faced the previous champion Inter Milan. They were so nervous at the beginning that their hands and feet were numb, and they did not show their true level.

This team is a civilian team, there are no stars, not even outstanding players, but as a Serie B champion, they are not as bad as they look. On this team, the team's coordination and tactical quality are not bad at all.

Inter Milan’s underestimation of the enemy gave the Barry team time to adapt. After the initial tension and fear passed, the Barry team’s players gradually developed their own style, active running, fast pressing, tenacious defense, and tacit cooperation. Exactly what Inter Milan lacked.

After the opening three minutes, the players and fans of Inter Milan, including all the people watching the game, even the fans of the Bari team, almost believed that in less than ten minutes, Inter Milan would break through the goal of the Bari team.

Ten minutes later, Inter Milan completed five shots, but the score was still 0:0.

At this time, the fans thought that the Bari team must have lasted less than 20 minutes and gave Inter Milan so many shooting opportunities. Can killers like Eto'o, Milito, and Gao Xiaodong miss so many opportunities? Even Meng can also get in one.

However, after 20 minutes passed, the score was still 0:0. In this 10 minutes, Inter Milan's shot dropped to two shots, while Bari team actually had a shot. Bari midfielder Alvarez was 25 meters in front of the goal. A low shot is caught by Cesar.

Serie A fans know the ball. Seeing that the Bari team is playing more and more methodically, under their defense, the quality of Inter Milan's offense has begun to decline. I feel that today's game may not be as one-sided as imagined. If Inter Milan If they can't break through Barry's goal within 30 minutes, maybe Barry can really create a little trouble for Inter Milan.

Of course, Mourinho knows the ball better. After more than ten minutes of the game, he stood on the sidelines dissatisfied and gestured for the players to speed up the tempo.

It’s just that Inter Milan’s players formed the first impression that Barry’s team is big. It’s not easy to change it. If you don’t change your attitude of contempt, you can’t change your style of play and rhythm. Mourinho can’t do it with a few gestures. of.

After 20 minutes, the game became dull. Under the contraction and pressure of the Bari team, Inter Milan could no longer penetrate into the penalty area offensively, and the defensive pressure was also increasing.

In the 25th minute, Allegretti's left rib was about to break into the penalty area. Muntari pushed him down from behind, and the referee Russo showed his first yellow card. Allegretti took a free kick over the wall and ran to the near corner, Cesar flew to confiscate the ball.

In the 27th minute, Gao Xiaodong rubbed the ball over the top. Eto'o and Milito quickly advanced to form a double ghost shot, but Eto'o volleyed the ball with his right foot 7 meters in front of the goal and beat the ball fly!

Thirty minutes later, Mourinho, who was very dissatisfied, directly made a substitution adjustment,

In the first half, Muntari, who performed the worst among the three defensive midfielders, was replaced, and Quares immediately came on the field. Inter Milan changed the formation into 433, trying to strengthen the attack on the wing, stretch the defense of the Bari team, and give the central team Create space for passing and cutting.

Mourinho's idea is good and very targeted, but Quaresma who played did not show the extraordinary state shown in the warm-up match and training. Turned into a soft-footed crab, he failed to break through the former Juventus player Masiello on the wing, and the assists relied on full-back Maicon and teenager Thornton.

Seeing that the substitution didn't work, Mourinho's face grew a little longer. He couldn't make another substitution in the first half. Not being able to substitute means that this situation will continue until the end of the first half, and there are still ten minutes left What will happen in these ten minutes, Mourinho can't imagine.

The Inter Milan fans were a little dissatisfied with not being able to break through the goal of the newly promoted team in 30 minutes. Before the game, they all thought it was a game of abuse. The start was also very good. Why is it evenly matched?

Serie A champions and Serie B champions evenly matched? Gao Xiaodong alone was worth more than the entire Barry team, but after thirty minutes passed, the Barry team played brilliantly. Isn't it a joke to say this?

"Watching Serie A for the first time, are we playing Barry or Juventus?"

"We're calling Barry Juventus!"

"Who will give me some science, what is the difference between the 50 million Xiao Donggao and the 500,000 Alvarez?"

"Did we buy a fake Gao Xiaodong? How did you score 10 goals in the Champions League?"

...

If the team can't score goals, the blame will definitely be pinned on Gao Xiaodong's head. There is no way, who made him spend 50 million on Inter Milan, and who made him have an annual salary of 6 million.

Gao Xiaodong couldn't hear the fans' comments, and couldn't read the fans' comments on the Internet, but he knew very well that if the Barry team couldn't win this game, he and Mourinho would definitely bear the biggest blame.

He has to find a way to score now. Only by getting the ball into the opponent's goal can he pull the opponent out. The opponent has been shrinking in the 30-meter zone. Without an extraordinary tacit understanding, it is difficult to play any cooperation.

The best way to break the dense defense is high-altitude bombing, long-range shots, set-pieces, and personal breakthroughs. But in this current Inter Milan team, Milito and Eto'o are not air fighters. High-altitude bombing is useless. Personal breakthroughs are not good at Gao Xiaodong. Eto'o is not a top player in breakthroughs, he can only rely on long-range shots and set-pieces.

After a brief analysis of the situation on the field, Gao Xiaodong immediately changed his style of play, reduced organization and scheduling, and strengthened long-range shots and fouls with the ball.

In the 36th minute of the game, Gao Xiaodong shot vigorously from about 30 meters away from the goal. Gillette dropped the ball, but Milito shot a step late and the ball was cleared by the defender.

One minute later, Gao Xiaodong took another long shot and the ball missed the post.

In the 40th minute, Gao Xiaodong defended the ball with his back, and the opponent kicked and pushed behind him. Gao Xiaodong used to resist hard. This time he fell directly and won a free kick, but the free kick sent by Gao Xiaodong Lucio failed to grab the ball.

Seeing that there was still no goal after 40 minutes, the Inter Milan fans were very disappointed. They felt that they might not be able to score in the first half, and all their grievances were directed at Mourinho and Gao Xiaodong.

Complaining about Mourinho's cronyism, Quares is almost like an undercover agent, stubborn, and 433 was proved to be useless last season. Now that Gao Xiaodong is here, he wants to pick it up again.

Complaining about Gao Xiaodong shooting in waves, sticking to the ball, and playing worse and worse. rw
