Chapter 39 The confrontation between Lucio and Chen Yingxiong (first update guaranteed)
"Inter Milan's offensive was very fierce. For a while, they almost formed a siege. After all, this is Meazza, their home court! Mourinho's team is indeed powerful. In terms of strength, Inter Milan is obviously a level above Napoli..."
The commentator is analyzing the past ten minutes of the game for the TV audience.
It was almost thirty minutes into the first half. Judging from the scene, Inter Milan had the advantage. It seemed that Naples might lose the ball at any time.
But unfortunately, Napoli has not conceded a goal so far.
Napoli's goal looked particularly dangerous, but they just didn't concede a goal, which surprised some.
"Mazzarri put on a defensive counterattack posture, but in fact defense is the most important thing. Obviously, he thinks that being able to score one point in the away game is already a huge victory!"
Mazzarri really felt that it would be good to get one point, but he told the players that they must strive to win - in the end, even if the team cannot do it, the result will not be too bad.
"Does anyone still remember what Chen Yingxiong said in an interview after the game against Inter Milan last season? He said that he would double-play the defending champion this season. I believe that after watching this nearly thirty-minute game, even he himself Everyone will give up this idea... If he can score goals against Inter Milan twice in the new season, I think more people believe it... After all, as the golden boot last season, he has this ability."
It's hard to tell whether the commentator is praising Chen Yingxiong or looking down on him.
But Chen Yingxiong himself did not really give up this idea. Although the team was in a very difficult defensive situation, he did not give up the idea of chasing goals and defeating Inter Milan. He also knows the team's current situation, but he is different from what most people think - to reverse the situation, he must score goals. As long as he scores goals and leads his opponents, all problems will be solved.
It's a pity that the team is stubborn and he has received too little support.
Despite this, he devoted himself to the few offensive opportunities he had, hoping to help the team get out of its current predicament.
"Hamsik passed the ball! Hero! He caught the ball!"
Chen Yingxiong turned around and dribbled the ball. Due to lack of support, he had to dribble the ball forward alone. Compared with those dribbling masters, his dribbling is not interesting and not sharp enough. This big man's dribbling can easily be guessed by experienced defensive players. After all, he is not Ibrahimovic. He is 1.92 meters tall but has 1.68 meters of foot skills.
Therefore, it is still very easy for Inter Milan to defend.
Therefore, Chen Yingxiong easily refuses to dribble the ball by himself. He knows that he is not good at this aspect.
Facing Ghanaian midfielder Sulley_muntari who came up to defend him, Chen Yingxiong glanced at Cassano, who was supporting him not far from his left.
He planned to pass the football directly to Cassano, and then cut and run by himself. This was obviously much easier than driving the ball forward alone.
So he raised his right foot and kicked the football over, while looking at Cassano.
Muntali rushed up with the intention of stealing the ball, but Chen Yingxiong passed the ball instead. He suddenly felt a little disdainful in his heart - a coward! If you have the ability, let’s do it one-on-one!
Who would have thought that at this moment, things would take a sudden turn of events!
The football kicked by Chen Yingxiong did not reach Cassano's feet, but hit the calf bone of his own supporting foot, left leg...
The football changed its line and flew straight ahead, and... by accident, it slipped through the gap between Muntali's legs!
Crotchless!
Muntari never expected that a football would get through his crotch like this!
Chen Yingxiong was also stunned for a moment, but his reaction was faster than Muntali's. He stretched out his long legs and rushed forward!
As for Muntali, by the time he reacted and turned around to chase after him, Chen Yingxiong had already moved the football far away...
"Oh——!" The commentator and the fans in the stands exclaimed. Many people didn't even see what was going on, and found that Chen Yingxiong had dribbled the ball past Muntari!
To say that Chen Yingxiong doesn't know any dribbling skills is nonsense. He has practiced these basic skills hard for so many years, not to mention that he plays one-on-one with Maldini every day in the dungeon. Although he wins less and loses more, But I still accumulated some useful experience.
Chen Yingxiong strode forward with the ball.
"The hero breaks through!!"
"But he will soon face Inter Milan's centre-back Lucio..."
In fact, even if Muntari is defeated due to luck, it may not be a chance for Chen Yingxiong, because Inter Milan's defense is not in chaos.
Chen Yingxiong had no intention of passing the ball, he took the ball and ran towards Lucio.
In fact, Mourinho wants him to do this because it will be too easy to defend. He has emphasized to everyone before the game that dribbling is definitely not Chen Yingxiong's specialty, so during the game, attention should be paid to cutting off the connection between him and others and forcing him to control the ball by himself.
Judging from past performance, Chen Yingxiong has the kind of mistakes that all young players are prone to making. That is... believing too much in one's own abilities, and some not knowing the heights of the world, thinking that one can become the savior by oneself.
So if given the chance, he would never pass the ball out.
This time, it's no exception.
Chen Yingxiong plans to challenge Lucio!
However, in front of the experienced Lucio, his dribbling did not take advantage.
When he decided to change direction, Lucio saw through it. The captain of the Brazilian national team decisively stepped forward and knocked the football from Chen Yingxiong's feet.
Chen Yingxiong jumped over, but the football stayed.
Inter Milan fans cheered in the stands.
"Chen Yingxiong wasted an excellent offensive opportunity for Naples!"
"What a shame! He didn't handle the ball the right way!"
"Facing Lucio, Chen Yingxiong still seems too immature..."
The commentators criticized Chen Yingxiong's performance.
Mazzarri, who had been paying close attention on the sidelines, couldn't help but put his head in his hands, feeling sorry for the loss of this offensive opportunity.
Mourinho clenched his fists.
He just likes to see this kind of performance from the enemy's forward.
Chen Yingxiong looked back and saw Lucio driving the ball forward alone.
Naples' attack failed.
Of course, losers always lose, so his pass was actually a passing error and was ridiculed.
"This may be the best pass this round, right? Hahaha!"
※ ※ ※
Chen Yingxiong's mistake led to a surprise attack by Lucio. He rushed to the front and organized an attack. Fortunately, Inter Milan did not score, otherwise Chen Yingxiong would not have been able to escape the blame.
But there was no shortage of ridicule about him.
So when Chen Yingxiong took the ball forward again, the commentators ridiculed: "I think Naples should pay attention to their defense..."
"Is this another chance for Lucio!"
"What Chen Yingxiong should do is to pass the football, and then run forward to wait for the pass from his teammates. He is Naples' No. 9, not Naples' No. 10!"
But Chen Yingxiong didn't pass the ball. It's not that he had to be a lone hero, but Inter Milan's offensive was too fierce. Most of his teammates huddled in the thirty-meter area to defend. After he got the ball, he could get There is really too little support. If he doesn't dribble the ball forward himself, Inter Milan's defense will all come back, and Naples will have to fight a positional battle. This is not what Naples wants to see - if it turns into a positional battle, Naples will have to be very, very careful about what is behind it. In this case, how many people will be willing to attack?
When playing away from home, it is always right to be cautious.
Therefore, when attacking, Chen Yingxiong seemed to be particularly isolated and helpless.
Facing Lucio again, the cheers of Inter Milan fans rang out in the stands.
"Break his ball! Steal his ball!"
They pointed at Chen Yingxiong in the stadium and shouted.
Cut off Chen Yingxiong's ball, and then counterattack again!
Chen Yingxiong's left shoulder sank. Lucio did not rush to his right side, but instantly blocked his left side.
Sure enough, Chen Yingxiong was just a fake move. Seeing that he had not deceived Lucio, and the distance between the two was already close enough, he simply stopped and turned around to protect the football.
Obviously, he is afraid that football will be interrupted by Lucio again.
He was much more cautious this time...
Although he was unable to intercept the ball, he was able to prevent the opponent from counterattacking, which can be regarded as a successful defense.
Just when Lucio was thinking this in his mind, he saw Chen Yingxiong, who had his back turned to him, turned around again!
At the same time, he hooked the football under his feet to complete this turning action!
"Oh!" the narrator exclaimed, almost unable to believe his eyes - what did they see?
Maybe Lucio is not clear yet because his view is blocked by Chen Yingxiong. But the onlookers clearly saw that Chen Yingxiong used a Romario-style spin to pass! It just turned around!
"Eh... so beautiful!" Liu Jianhong also shouted. "Beautiful! Turn around!"
Chen Yingxiong did turn around. But Lucio is a centre-back who has experienced many battles. How can he let his opponent go so easily?
He turned around and put his foot down without hesitation and without any hesitation!
After Chen Yingxiong turned around, he planned to stretch out his foot to throw the football out, and then speed up to get rid of Lucio. Unexpectedly, he did not kick the football, but kicked Lucio's foot, and he lost his center of gravity.
When Chen Yingxiong fell to the ground, the referee's whistle also sounded.
"Lucio fouled! This was a shove from behind! Yes, a shove from behind!" The Naples commentator suddenly became excited because he realized what consequences this foul might bring...
Chen Yingxiong fell and was lying on the ground, unable to get up.
But Mazzarri on the sidelines had already rushed to the fourth official: "This is a serious foul!!"
He's putting pressure on the referee. At the same time, the Naples players on the field also opened their arms and ran towards the referee. Cassano shouted: "There is no one behind him!"
Mourinho clenched his fists and cursed: "What the hell..."
Everyone knew what this foul meant.
Sure enough, the referee ran over with a... red card in his hand!
