Volume 1: Heroes Come and Go, People Pay Attention Chapter 139 Inter Milan Is Torn Apart (First Update, Please Vote for Me!)
When Chen Yingxiong jumped in the air... He even jumped higher than the horizontal beam. Facing such an opponent who was almost flying, Lucio and Samuel were probably nowhere to be seen even when they were at their peak. You have to be able to stop this ball...
When Chen Yingxiong went to celebrate the goal, the two of them looked at each other again. []
This time the two of them shook their heads in unison.
No way, really no way.
This was the first thought in the two people's minds when they saw Chen Yingxiong's goal.
He was even more powerful than when the two of them fought him two years ago!
Julio Cesar lost his balance because he leaned back to reach the ball, and fell directly onto his back into the goal. The football fell right next to him, hit the ground, and bounced up again until he was hit by the ball. The net is caught.
He placed it on his forehead, as if lying on the hillside to take a nap, but his chest kept rising and falling violently, making a heavy breathing sound like a bellows.
Although he is a goalkeeper, goalkeepers are also very tired, especially under such great pressure.
He could feel his heart beating fast, but he felt relieved because damn it! He finally scored...
Every time Chen Yingxiong took a shot before, he began to worry, "Is this ball going to go in?" "This ball looks like it is going to go in" "It's coming, this ball is dangerous!" Because of this Worry, he will try his best every time he saves the football, but these huge pressures will not diminish at all every time he saves the football. Instead, they will become more and more intense. They accumulate and become a pressure on his heart. A boulder.
It seems that he will only be relieved if he really loses the ball.
Just like now, his goal was finally lost, and he felt relieved. No more carrying that huge burden...
But he soon realized: Damn it, we are lagging behind! How can we compete for the championship like this? !

Faced with such a conceded goal, the Inter Milan fans were silent. What could they say?
Blame your two centre-backs? Their performance in this game was outstanding enough, and they tenaciously withstood Chen Yingxiong's impact for nearly 70 minutes. The two old guys are both thirty-five years old and can still perform like this. What they should do is definitely not blame them, but applaud them!
Blame goalkeeper Cesar? Because he hardly made any moves when Chen Yingxiong headed the ball towards the goal, and even if he did make moves afterwards, it was too late. But even if Casillas, the number one goalkeeper in today's world football, faced Chen Yingxiong's close header, it was still a rebound ball. Cesar, who was at his peak, might be able to save such a ball. But you have to know that Cesar is actually old...
To put it bluntly, it seems that Inter Milan can only blame the team's recruitment department for this goal. In the past few seasons, they have not introduced successful central defenders to replace Lucio and Samuel, so that these two The old guy is still playing the main role at this age.
Inter Milan once took a fancy to Ranocchia, but Ranocchia's two consecutive serious injuries caused them to flinch, and they were finally taken advantage of by Naples.
Look at Ranocchia's current performance in Naples. It really makes the fans of Inter Milan feel itchy.
But you always have to find someone to take the blame, right?
Then it’s you, Chen Yingxiong!
Why the hell are you always so excited when fighting us! Wouldn't you give in a little bit? Do you understand respecting the elderly and loving the young? Facing Lucio, Samuel and Cesar, are you embarrassed to hit such a difficult ball?
Soon, many Inter Milan fans booed and cursed Chen Yingxiong in the stands.
But such little boos and curses pose no threat to Chen Yingxiong.
He didn't take it seriously, got up and hugged his teammates and continued to celebrate the goal.
No matter how Inter Milan fans booed him or scolded him, he always had a happy smile on his face. It makes the fans of Inter Milan feel sour in their hearts...

When he saw Chen Yingxiong pushing the football into the gate guarded by Cesar, Villas-Boas felt a chill in his heart and felt a huge sense of frustration.
He stood frozen on the spot, unable to even speak a word.
The most worrying situation finally happened!
His persistence failed to stop Chen Yingxiong. Although they had successfully defended him for nearly seventy minutes before, football is so cruel. Even if you succeeded for the first eighty-nine minutes, as long as you fail in the last minute, you are also a loser. After the game, the media will only criticize him for his conservative tactics. He lost the game because of his timidity.
cowardly. It seems that if you press out and attack Liverpool, you will definitely win.
No one would have thought that Villas-Boas' tactics allowed Inter Milan to persist for seventy minutes, and they would drag Liverpool into overtime with more than twenty minutes. By then, the mentality of both sides would have undergone earth-shaking changes, and the balance of victory would have been leaning towards them.
No one would think so.
Because football is a project where "heroes are judged by results". If you win the championship, even if you are a toad, you can become a prince. If you lose the championship, even if you are a prince, you still pretend that winning or losing is above all else.
He, Boas, failed.

Apart from defending, Villas-Boas didn't know how to stop Chen Yingxiong and Liverpool's offensive. All his tactics and strategies were designed around the premise of defending without conceding the ball. So once he loses the ball, his tactics fail and become in vain. Inter Milan will not be able to hold on any longer, and if they continue to hold on, Liverpool will be happy to slow down and guard their own half with them, looking at each other across the halfway line.
If this score is maintained until the end, Liverpool will win, and Inter Milan will still lose even if it only loses one goal.
What if they don't stick around? That's more to Liverpool's taste. If they press out and play, Liverpool can counterattack. And Liverpool, with Sanchez, Suarez and Chen Yingxiong, can counterattack quite sharply.
Anyway, whether it is defensive or offensive, Inter Milan is very difficult now.
This is why Villas-Boas thinks he has failed.
Martin O'Neill knew this very well, so when he saw Chen Yingxiong scoring a goal, he just jumped up and waved his fist to express his joy, and then quickly devoted himself to his new work. He called captain Gerrard to his side for a face-to-face discussion, then asked Gerrard to come on and told all Liverpool players that for the next game, Liverpool would slow down and defend and counterattack. First, ensure that Inter Milan does not seize the space behind them to make a fuss, and then in turn seize the space behind Inter Milan to make a fuss.
Even if Liverpool cannot score, they must make sure not to let Inter Milan go too crazy and pour cold water on their counterattack, making them timid and accomplishing nothing by the end of the game.
Liverpool, who were already in the lead, were already in an invincible position with little time left in the game.
The person who broke the deadlock for the team was Chen Yingxiong. He was very good at breaking the deadlock in the game.
What a blessing it is for the head coach to have a shooter like Chen Yingxiong!
If Villas has Chen Yingxiong, the person who should have a headache now is Martin O'Neill.

Seeing Chen Yingxiong score, all the Liverpool fans in the stands jumped up. They waved their arms and kept chanting Chen Yingxiong's name to vent their joy.
"Hero! Hero! Liverpool's hero!!!" A pun, which not only shows that Chen Yingxiong is a player of Liverpool, but also shows that he is like a hero to Liverpool.
The members of the "Red Bears" organization were particularly excited. When their favorite players showed off, their faces naturally glowed.
Each one shouted louder than usual.
"Liverpool opened the scoring, and Inter Milan, who was stubbornly defending, was forced to a dead end! Now there is only one way in front of them, and that is to attack! But if they attack, their defense will inevitably have a lot of gaps. Heroes are not vegetarians! "
the narrator shouted.
Liverpool fans have already begun to look forward to the moment when the team lifts the trophy.
The song "You'll Never Walk Alone" must be sung by then. It has been too long. Since 2005, Liverpool has never won any significant championship in Europe.
Now the Liverpool fans can finally feel proud!

After the game restarted, Inter Milan was indeed in a dilemma. Is it offensive?
Or defense?
The people on the defense felt it was better to let go. After all, Liverpool had just taken the lead and their morale was high. If Inter Milan pressed out to attack at this time, it would only allow their opponents to score more goals.
We should first stabilize the defense and survive Liverpool's offensive attack during this period.
The frontcourt players feel that they should attack immediately. Liverpool will be in a very "excited" state after just scoring a goal. In this case, they will lose concentration and be too "excited" during the game. , there will be opportunities to take advantage of it in defense. As long as Inter Milan's offense is determined enough, it may be able to equalize the score immediately and bring the two sides of the game back to the same starting line.
This inconsistency tore Inter Milan apart.
So everyone can see that on the court, Inter Milan's offensive lineup is desperately seeking offensive opportunities, but it lacks support from the backcourt, resulting in the quality of their offense always failing to improve. When defending, Inter Milan's offensive players stay in the frontcourt and do not return to defense, because returning to defense will waste energy and delay time. What if the team counterattacks at this time? So everyone was waiting in the frontcourt, looking forward to the arrival of the legendary "excellent counterattack opportunity".
The former glorious Triple Crown winner has lost its glory and has fallen into decline.
How can such Inter Milan compete with Liverpool, which is rising like the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning?
The seeds of failure have begun to sprout (To be continued.!)
