Chapter 292: top again

The latest website: Naples away game against Rome, was scheduled to kick off at 17:00 in the afternoon.

After the game, it was almost half past eighteen.

After Gao Shen attended the press conference, the players packed up and the team returned to Fort Volturno in Naples by bus. In the second game of the eighth round, Inter Milan's away game against Reggina just started.

Both the coaching staff and the players were in Fort Volturno watching the game, except that the players were in the players' lounge and the coaching staff were in the office.

Inter Milan did not do their best in this game, including players such as Ibrahimovic, Crespo, Zanetti, Samuel, etc. did not start, but sat on the bench.

Up front, Mancini discharged the combination of Adriano and Cruise.

This is surprising, because Adriano has not played for a long time.

Everyone knows that this Inter Milan center has long since fallen.

As soon as the game started, Regina took advantage of the home advantage and launched a round of onslaught against Inter Milan.

The state of Inter Milan players is not very good, and it is relatively slow to enter the game.

This wave of attacks lasted for 18 minutes. During this period, apart from a free kick in the frontcourt, Inter Milan did not even shoot a single shot, which shows the gap between the two sides. .

But in the 18th minute, Inter Milan created a set-piece opportunity on the right, Figo took a free kick, and Adriano nodded and hit the goal, opening the scoring for Inter Milan.

Football games have never been so unreasonable!

Reggina performed better after the opening and was more active. Inter Milan was obviously not in good shape, but it was Inter who scored.

Then Regina took the initiative, and they were bent on equalizing the score.

Even after entering 20 minutes, a continuous wave of rushing attacks forced Inter Milan to retreat into the penalty area, and almost broke the goal with three consecutive shots, which made Inter Milan’s goal a gust of wind.

"Regina's attack is really bad!" Lucas sighed rather depressedly.

In fact, Inter Milan's performance is already very sluggish, and the state is obviously not good. Otherwise, as long as they play normally, Inter Milan will be suppressed by their opponents like this?

But even so, Regina had an advantage on the pitch and created so many opportunities in a row, but he failed to score.

Who else can you blame?

"They're just a relegation team, you can't expect too much from them." Carlo smiled bitterly.

In many cases, the gap between relegation in the top leagues and the giants is bigger than the gap between the second-tier league and the giants, which was reflected in Naples last season.

"Reggina's four-to-five pair of midfield suppression is in place, Inter Milan's two flanks are contained, and there is a serious lack of creativity in the middle. This team is a bit like Capello's Juventus." Deep analysis.

At that time, Capello's Juventus was more than tough, delicate and lacking in creativity.

Now Inter Milan is generally the same.

So Gao Shen can imagine why Sneijder is so important to Inter Milan.

If it is said that the exchange of Eto'o with Ibrahimovic is an opportunity that cannot be met, then the subsequent operation of Inter Milan is equivalent to making up for the shortcomings of this team.

After Zlatan Ibrahimovic left, Inter Milan lacked a center. Mourinho had to use four or three, but Eto'o was not suitable for this position.

So the Portuguese wanted Drogba, but Blanca brought in Diego Milito.

This is very critical, not only adapting to the four-three-three, but also activating Milito and Eto'o.

The midfield creation is weak, Mourinho wants Deco, but Blanca introduced Sneijder from Real Madrid, which solves the shortcomings of Inter Milan's lack of creativity in midfield and lack of passers in the middle.

Without Sneijder, Inter Milan's offense could only go wide.

As for Mourinho to Carvalho, Blanca introduced Lucio, which is more appropriate.

Samuel, Cordoba, Burdisso, Rivas and Qiu, these Inter Milan central defenders all have one feature in common, that is, they are all short, about 1.8 meters, and some of them are not even one. rice eight.

Carvalho is also a short central defender, which is obviously not suitable for Inter Milan.

Let me ask, if Carvalho comes and Inter Milan's central defender meets the opponent's high forward, how will he play?

Materazzi is 1.93 meters tall, but the veteran is 34 years old and has many injuries. Everyone knows that he can't play many games. In this case, the introduction of Lucio has greatly Strengthened Inter's back line.

The Brazilian central defender is definitely the most capable central defender in today's world football, and you don't even need to add one.

Note that it is personal ability, that is, individual combat ability.

In fact, David Luiz's individual combat ability is also very strong, but he and Lucio have one feature in common, that is, they both have an attacking heart.

Milito, Sneijder and Lucio, these three players prop up the central axis of Inter Milan, and then, under the integration of Mourinho, fully exerted the strong strength of Inter Milan.

And these three players, lack of any one, it is very difficult for Inter Milan to win the Champions League!

It's as if now, Inter Milan faced Reggina, who was far weaker than them, but turned out to be at a disadvantage on the scene. They were pressed and beaten by their opponents.

Why?

Because the midfield can't play the ball!

If there is a Sneijder in the midfield at this time, even if Sneijder is not needed, give them a Parejo, Reggina does not know how many times he will die.

Sometimes, football says it's simple, it's that simple.

But to say it is complicated, it is indeed quite complicated.

+++

Another thing that surprised Gao Shen in this game was that Mancini replaced Adriano with Zanetti in the 55th minute.

I have to say that this was a decision that made Gao Shen and even Carlo and others feel very speechless.

Because he is so conservative!

You are a team competing for the Serie A championship, facing a relegation team, although it is an away game, although it is in poor form, but you are passively beaten, so why choose conservative substitutions?

"Now, I really understand why Inter Milan's mental will is so weak? It's not without reason that they can't get results in the Champions League." Buenaventura shook his head and smiled bitterly.

The strength is dominant, although the state is not good, but no matter what, you must show the spirit of a strong team and fight with your opponents!

What about Mancini?

His choice was to keep the three points.

Yes, it was a wise choice, getting the three points was important, but the whole spirit and morale of the team was not.

Conservative substitutions are not the same as telling the players that I just want three points. I don’t care if the scene is good or not.

Adriano was also very angry. When he came off the court, he even ignored Mancini and walked directly into the player tunnel.

The more unexpected Sao operation is that ten minutes later, Mancini replaced Vieira with Ibrahimovic.

Gao Shen and the others were completely dumbfounded.

What do you think about this?

Adriano performed well tonight and replaced Vieira with Zanetti, isn't it good?

"He may be trying to pass the time with substitutions." Lucas speculated hilariously.

Everyone also smiled for a while.

Reggina was even more brave, because they immediately replaced striker Barreto to continue to strengthen the offensive, directly forming a greater attacking threat to Inter Milan's goal.

Gao Shen even thought with some wickedness: "What if Regina scores a goal?"

Everyone was stunned.

Don't say, there is such a possibility.

Because on the scene, Regina really has the advantage.

If it is really equalized, Mancini is afraid of bad luck.

Fortunately, even in the end, Regina failed to break Inter Milan's goal.

The home team's offense is really too stretched and missed a lot of good opportunities.

In the end, Inter Milan beat Regina 1-0 with Adriano's goal.

But this is obviously not the focus of Gao Shen et al.

Especially in the players' lounge.

Before the game started, there were many people cheering.

After the game, although Inter Milan also scored three points, because Naples beat Roma 4-0 away, in the standings, Naples overtook Inter Milan by three goals and took the lead in Serie A. position of the sheep.

After a month, Naples topped the list again!

The players rushed to the coaching office to celebrate the good news with the coaching staff.

But Gao Shen is a little regretful.

"I was always expecting Reggina to score, but..."

At the end, Gao Shen even jokingly said, "I even want to loan Cavani to them!"

Everyone burst into laughter.

Cavani is the top scorer in the Naples team. His efficiency is not high, but he is very active and scores a lot.

"Boss, they can't create so many chances. If I go, I probably won't score a few goals." Cavani is self-aware.

His scoring efficiency still needs to be improved.

"Then you have to sculpt your shooting skills better and be more efficient. We will play the Champions League next season!" Gao Shen looked at the players in front of him and said with a smile.

"At that time, the intensity of defense we encounter will be greater than now, especially in the knockout stage, there may only be one or two good opportunities in a game, we must seize it, if we miss it, it will be gone. UU Reading www .uukanshu.com”

Not only Cavani, but Pellet, Hamsik and Sanchez all nodded.

Callejon played in the Champions League at Real Madrid, so he also knows how intense the Champions League is, especially the knockout stages.

Real Madrid, which is as tyrannical as a superstar-studded team, plays like walking on thin ice, not to mention Naples.

"Okay, let's go back to rest, we have to train tomorrow morning!"

Gao Shen clapped his hands vigorously, "Everyone must remember that we have once again reached the top of the Serie A, but I hope everyone can work together this time to show a better state, especially against Juventus next week, we must Take it, and we'll have to sit at the top a little longer!"

"Best, we can sit down all the time!"

The players were also very excited, and they all applauded in unison.

Once again on the top of the list, the morale of the young people in Naples is bursting!
