Chapter 777 Final 5
Cazorla actually didn't score many goals. He only secured his starting position after Kaka was injured. In a team, there are always some secret competitions. Cazorla put himself in a very positive position, passing the ball to his teammates, organizing more, and shooting less, so it's natural that he can't score many goals.
But he is also popular because of this. After scoring a goal, all the players ran to him. Captain Tony, who was warming up on the sidelines, even half-bent his legs and opened his hands to greet Cazorla. Cazorla jumped on Tony without hesitation. The scene was a bit dirty and a bit sweet.
After a warm celebration, Cazorla applauded the stands over Hugo. Hugo knew that the applause was not for him, but for Cazorla's family. Today, the family members of the team's first-team members came here to watch the game as long as they wanted, and Cazorla's family was also here.
The deadlock was broken, and the balance on the field was broken, which made Bielsa breathe a sigh of relief. For him, he was afraid that others would park the bus and not attack. Inter Milan's situation was very clear. Mourinho had to spend energy on attacking, otherwise how could he win the treble? !
Even though it was too early for them at this moment, but in a while, as time passed, it was impossible not to attack.
Bielsa adjusted the tactics in time, and Inter Milan's morale was certainly stagnant, but it was obviously unwise to continue to attack with the mentality of beating the drowning dog. Bielsa followed Berizzo's advice and asked Trapani to slow down the pace and start to waste time. Inter Milan's players ran all over the field, but the effect was really not ideal, because Mourinho rarely practiced such high-position pressing, and they did not dare to invest too much manpower in pressing. They performed local pressing instead of full-court pressing, which led to Trapani always finding space to pass the ball.
Time passed by minute by minute, even the calmest Inter Milan players began to lose their composure, Mourinho obviously lost his temper, and called on Inter Milan players to play with their weapons, one word, do it, Balotelli was substituted on the field, Materazzi was also substituted on the field, why, these two people can compete for headers, Mourinho had to use long passes and use set-piece tactics.
In the football world, some things have rules, such as impatient people can't eat hot tofu, and there is no shortage of reversals in the finals of the Champions League. Well, there is also no shortage of ways for the opponent to expand the lead in the face of impatience. Any choice has two sides, unfortunately Inter Milan encountered the bad side today.
The process of the final is almost the same as the second leg of the semi-final against Bayern Munich. It also took advantage of the opponent's impatience to attack. Trapani received a pass from Messi in the 78th minute and broke through the door held by Cesar, and then Inter Milan's morale collapsed directly.
Within 5 minutes, Materazzi fouled Suarez in the penalty area, and Messi took the penalty kick and scored, 3:0, the game has lost suspense.
At this time, Bielsa began to make personnel adjustments. Captain Toni replaced the hero Suarez, Modric replaced Mascherano, and Beckham replaced Messi.
Bielsa used up all three substitutions in one breath. The substitutions in the 3:0 situation were purely to let Beckham and others show up in the final.
This is the first time that the young Modric has appeared in the final. He has been slow to integrate, but now he has entered a good state. Before the final, Bielsa was actually very troubled about whether to use Modric or Schweinsteiger. After all, Schweinsteiger had just recovered from injury. Letting Modric play at this time is also a compliment to him and let him feel the atmosphere of the final.
Modric was very good. Not long after he came on the court, he sent a long counterattack pass with a very good passing level. Henry rushed inside with the ball, bent his bow and shot a perfect arc ball on the left side of the penalty area, and scored another goal.
It is too appropriate to describe Inter Milan's defeat in the past twenty minutes. Mourinho's various adjustments are useless. The biggest problem of their frontcourt players is that there are too many people, but they don't know how to run. They stand in too rigid positions and just wait for pie in the sky to fall. How can it be so easy.
Moratti's face in the stands was livid. Mourinho led Inter Milan to play against Trapani in the past two years. It can't be said that it was miserable. It can even be said that in the direct dialogue, Inter Milan lost the scene, but in the end they still had the advantage, winning more and losing less.
However, in such an important game today, Inter Milan will lose like this, creating the biggest score of Mourinho's era, the final, 4:0!
How could Moratti bear it? The Inter Milan executives and celebrities sitting around Moratti were silent. What could they say? !
Was Mourinho's tactical choice wrong? ! It was not wrong. Unfortunately, Bielsa and his Trapani may have been fully prepared psychologically and physically because of too many encounters. It was just a simple pass, but it easily tore through Inter Milan's empty defense.
"Beep...beep..." Two short and one long, Weber blew the whistle to end the game.
The Trapani substitutes, coaches, and team leader Antonio Perotti and other staff who were already standing on the sidelines were impatient and rushed into the stadium to find their respective targets, laughing, hugging, and even crying.
Suarez's eyes were full of tears, crying like a child. This guy is an emotional person, and he will cry when he is unhappy. Last season, Trapani unfortunately lost a good game and was eliminated by Barcelona. He also shed tears, but today they are definitely happy tears.
"Why are you crying?!" This time it was not the captain Toni who came to comfort him, but Messi. Suarez and Messi played very well in the team. They are really good friends. Who knows why.
"I am happy...ah...I...I...I didn't expect that one day I would finally stand at the top of Europe!" Suarez spoke intermittently and incoherently, with tears and snot flying, so disgusting.
"What is this?!" Messi blurted out, "Do you know how many times Real Madrid has won the Champions League?!"
"Nine times! Nine times!" Messi gestured and said, "It took them decades, almost a hundred years, to achieve this goal. Our goal in Trapani is to surpass them! I hope I can help the team achieve this goal during my career! Now there are only two championships, what is there to be happy about?!"
"Don't brag?!" Suarez's eyes widened, this is too ridiculous.
"Don't brag!" Messi replied calmly.
Suarez looked like he didn't believe you, ran away, his eyes were no longer crying, and he joined the other players in the carnival.
Bielsa had already greeted Mourinho. To be precise, after the whistle sounded, Mourinho took the initiative to come to Bielsa and congratulated Bielsa. There was no trace of the previous tense situation. At this time, Bielsa was standing on the sidelines with a lot of emotion. In this situation, he was about to recite a poem, but "Ah"!
Bielsa was caught by the players and thrown into the air, over and over again. Bielsa was a little nervous, then relaxed and laughed.
After the celebration, there was an award ceremony. Platini smiled like Maitreya Buddha and presented the trophy to Trapani's players. Trapani's fans cheered. In just four years, they won two Champions League trophies. This is not something that everyone can do. Trapani is now recognized as the top team in Europe.
After getting the trophy, Trapani's players took the trophy to the stadium again. First, they walked around the stadium and accepted the inspection of the fans on the scene. Then everyone had close contact with the trophy and took various photos.
Hugo asked all the people to stand in the middle of the stadium for a group photo. Hugo stood in the middle with his son Angelo, looking proud.
