Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Fourth Complete Defeat
After conceding the goal, Mourinho was very annoyed and disappointed. Obviously, he was very aware of Barcelona's style of play. It said it was offensive football, and it looked like offensive football, but in fact it was fake offensive football, because they were more It's passing the ball down in one's own half, and it's possession defense.
Unlike other teams, most of Barcelona's players come from their own youth training camp, La Masia, and the players they buy are all technical players. They have the strongest passing and receiving ability in the world. The team can steal the ball from under their feet.
Sure enough, after taking the lead, Barcelona began to hold the ball in their own half, luring Inter Milan to grab it.
In this 4231 formation of Inter Milan, 1 in the frontcourt is Milito, Gao Xiaodong is behind Milito, Eto'o and Zanetti are separated on both sides, these four players are active players, and most teams can be defeated by them It was embarrassing to grab, but they couldn't touch Barcelona's ball.
In this game, Barcelona clearly showed the world what it means that the ball runs faster than people.
Inter Milan didn't dare to press forward with all of them. Barcelona controlled the ball in their own half and inside and outside the center circle. Occasionally, the full-backs stepped forward to assist. The two sides remained in a stalemate for almost 20 minutes. Barcelona's ball possession rate reached 100%. Seventy, and Inter Milan did not attack Barcelona's penalty area within 30 minutes.
Thirty minutes later, Inter Milan forced the Barcelona defender to make a mistake in the return pass. Barcelona goalkeeper Valdez kicked the ball to Gao Xiaodong's feet. Gao Xiaodong hit the goal directly after stopping the ball. out.
Then Gao Xiaodong took a corner kick and the ball was cleared by Pique. Inter Milan grabbed the second point and continued to attack. When Milito dunked Puyol, he was tackled behind Puyol. As soon as I saw it, both of them were shown yellow cards.
At this time, Ibrahimovic felt uncomfortable in his legs. Guardiola replaced Ibrahimovic in advance for the national derby on the weekend and replaced him with the teenager Pedro.
At this moment, Barcelona moved Messi to the center position, with Pedro and Henry separated on both sides.
Seeing that Ibrahimovic was replaced, Inter Milan thought it was a good opportunity and wanted to take the opportunity to launch an attack, but they did not expect that Pedro was also a Barcelona youth player. After he came on the field, the number of Barcelona youth players has reached 7 First, passing and receiving the ball has become more tacit and smooth, and it is more difficult to steal.
In the 42nd minute, Barcelona played exquisite cooperation in the frontcourt. After hitting the wall in a row, Harvey cleverly distributed the ball to the right, and Alves passed the ball directly to the penalty area without stopping.
At this moment, in order to defend Messi, Inter Milan's formation has been completely leaning to the left, and the right back Maicon has all entered the penalty area.
At this time, Pedro, who is serving as a left winger, quickly inserted into the penalty area.
With a volley shot, the ball bounced off the ground. Although Cesar made a pounce, he still couldn't stop the ball from entering the goal.
2-0, Barcelona extended its lead.
With Barcelona's ability to control the ball, they lead by two goals. There is almost no suspense in the game. Even if Inter Milan wants to attack, they can't do anything because they have no ball to play.
After the first half, during the intermission, Mourinho was thinking hard about how to break Barcelona's possession, but assistant coach Baresi couldn't help him because Baresi is also an Italian player and they are good at What is important is to defend and counterattack, not to attack.
At this time, Mourinho began to miss his assistant Boas. If Boas does not leave, at this time, he is capable of making constructive suggestions.
At the beginning of the second half of the game, Barcelona made another substitution adjustment, Henry went off, and teenager Dos Santos came on. At this moment, Barcelona's youth training players have reached an astonishing eight.
Whether Inter Milan wins or loses does not have much impact on qualifying. In order to win face in front of his old club, Mourinho replaced Stankovic and Balotelli, and the formation became 4213. Balotelli Leigh and Eto'o played wingers, Milito played center forward.
This formation made Barcelona a little uncomfortable at the beginning, and Inter Milan got a few chances to shoot. Among them, Gao Xiaodong suddenly pulled to the side and passed a cross to Eto'o in the penalty area, but Alves used it. The body blocks Eto'o's shot.
Although Inter Milan's offense is threatening, it has no continuity, because he has no ball at his feet, and the ball is at the feet of Barcelona. The threat to Barcelona is very small.
After Inter Milan's formation changed to 4213, the control of the midfield declined, and Barcelona immediately began to attack Inter Milan's left-back Chivu.
Chivu is an all-rounder in the backcourt. He can play as a central defender, a fullback, and a fullback, but Chivu is not Gao Xiaodong. Weiss. Under Alves' onslaught, Chivu soon received a yellow card.
Seeing that Barcelona continued to attack his left, Mourinho had no choice but to take the risk of replacing Chivu with Thornton to see if the young Thornton could block Alves' attack.
Mourinho's adventure failed. In front of the old and cunning Alves, Thornton looked very immature. He was full of loopholes in defense, but he still wanted to perform in offense, and the result could only be worse.
At this time, captain Zanetti almost turned from a midfielder into a left back in order to fight the fire for Thornton.
Zanetti was able to plug the loophole on the left back, but he lost control in the middle. Gao Xiaodong had to spend a lot of energy on defense. Inter Milan was battered and battered. There were three forwards in front but they were powerless against Barcelona. The goal poses a threat.
In the 80th minute of the game, Mourinho gave it a go, replacing Milito with Quaresma and letting Balotelli play center forward.
At the moment, Inter Milan already has three former Barcelona players, Motta, Eto'o, and Quaresma. Mourinho wants to use the former Barcelona players to deal with Barcelona, but in front of Barcelona's strong possession, as long as they fall behind, All the tricks were useless, Inter Milan was still unable to attack Barcelona's goal continuously, and it was unable to create pressure on Barcelona's defense, and it was impossible to talk about scoring.
In the 88th minute of the game, Barcelona made a straight pass. Goalkeeper Cesar wanted to get the ball, but central defender Samuel did not form a tacit understanding with him. He flew to tackle and destroyed it. Barcelona players almost grabbed the ball and hit the empty goal.
Because Samuel made a mistake in a return pass before, which forced Cesar to clear the siege, Cesar was very dissatisfied and shouted at Samuel: "How do you defend, you can't see me attacking. "
The defense conceded two goals, and Samuel was responsible for one of them. He was very annoyed, "Why didn't you shout when you went out?"
Captain Zanetti saw that the two were about to quarrel, so he hurried over to pull Samuel away, and Lucio also quickly pulled Cesar away, which prevented the escalation of the quarrel between the two.
At this time, Inter Milan's army was in a state of confusion, and they could no longer create a chance to score goals. In the end, they lost 0:2 to Barcelona in the away game, and the two sides drew at home and away. r
