Chapter 328： 1 lesson for Mancini

Led by the young referee Nicola Rizzoli, the players of the two teams slowly entered the Sao Paulo Stadium amid the cheers of more than 60,000 fans.

Thirty-six-year-old Nicola Rizzoli is a young referee who is highly praised by the entire Italian refereeing community. He has just been promoted to the international referee this summer and has started to enforce the law in various European competitions, such as the Europa League and the European Cup. qualifiers.

But tonight, the bald referee Collina still very confidently arranged him as the referee of the peak match between Naples and Inter Milan, which shows the cultivation of this young referee.

Both Gao Shen and the coaching staff have also studied Rizzoli's law enforcement before the game. He has always been a little looser and doesn't draw much cards.

This also caused him a lot of controversy.

It is worth mentioning that he also enforced a key game in the last round, that is, the Torino Derby.

As a result, Juventus drew with Torino 0-0.

A week later, he enforced Napoli's pinnacle match against Inter Milan, which made everyone believe that Rizzoli would become Italy's future international top post.

…

When Gao Shen entered the Sao Paulo Stadium, the praise and cheers he received were not even inferior to Maradona...

More than 60,000 fans in the audience cheered and shouted for him, and everyone was shouting his name.

Gao Shen obviously enjoyed this treatment very much, and raised his right hand towards the fans with a smile, as if he was accepting the support of his subjects, and the cheers of the fans in the stands immediately went to a higher level.

"Goshen's status in the hearts of Naples fans is too high!" the TV commentator couldn't help but exclaim.

Although it was broadcast live, all the fans in front of the TV could still hear the overwhelming cheers through the sound of the scene, which swept the entire Sao Paulo Stadium like a tsunami.

Since Gao Shen's appearance, the live TV camera has been aimed at him.

Gao Shen was also used to all this. After smiling and waving to the fans around him, he turned and walked to the visiting team's coaching bench.

"Hello, Mancho!" Gao Shen stretched out his hand towards Mancini with a smile.

"Hello, Gao." Mancini was a little uninterested, but he squeezed out a smile. After shaking hands with Gao Shen, he gave a polite hug.

The two actually didn't have the slightest friendship. After the hug, Gao Shen said to Mancini, "I wish you good luck." Mancini also replied the same, and then went back to prepare.

"Both managers have been the most successful managers in Serie A this season."

"Mancini is forty-two years old, but Gao Shen is only twenty-seven years old. The difference between the two is fifteen years."

"Especially Gao Shen, no one can believe that at the age of 27, he has led Naples to the Serie A championship. He is the youngest head coach in the four major leagues."

"And Napoli, the team with the youngest average age in the big four leagues this season, in their early twenties, very, very young, and they have played unbelievably under the leadership of an equally young manager. offensive football."

"And Mancini represents the Italian tradition. He is a standard professional player. He coaches the traditional Italian giants Inter Milan, and has a luxury lineup full of superstars."

"So, before the game, many media were talking about why this game attracted so much attention?"

"Because it gathers too many elements, anywhere in the world, all people can find some resonance in this game, as long as he likes football, he doesn't even need to know football or stars, he must You can find your spiritual resonance in it.”

"This is a one-of-a-kind showdown!"

…

When Gao Shen returned to the home team's coaching bench, the court was already preparing to guess.

The young Hamsik put on the armband of the captain of Naples and walked over to take a guess with Zanetti, the captain of Inter Milan. Naples won and chose the side, and Inter Milan got the right to serve.

This is also in line with the arrangement before the high-level competition.

Tonight, Napoli don't want too much possession.

Otherwise, Gao Shen would not have such a lineup and style of play.

"Pay close attention to the data and dynamics of Inter Milan players, especially physical fitness and injury response." Gao Shen told Lucas.

Ibrahimovic and others are recovering from injuries. Gao Shen is very curious, have they recovered? Or barely playing?

Inter Milan is suffering from a wave of injuries right now, but there's a reason for it all.

The first is that the players are a bit old. This season, the multi-line battles, the players have heavy tasks, and whether Mancini has adjusted properly, which led to the team's injury-prone period immediately in February and March.

In fact, anyone who is familiar with football knows that this is very normal.

It can only be said that Mancini is still too much in preparation and adjustment.

Perhaps, he really thought that Inter Milan could easily take the Serie A championship.

But who would have thought that after the winter break, Naples performed exceptionally vigorously.

Even in the trough period, they can rely on advanced tactics and on-the-spot adjustments to bite Inter Milan hard.

Well now, when Naples was in poor form before, they failed to widen the gap. When Inter Milan's state declined, Naples immediately caught up and shortened the gap.

The advanced strategy was even better than he expected.

Pride will be defeated!

Gao Shen now truly understands the profound meaning of these four words.

And tonight, he will teach this arrogant soldier another lesson!

...

...

Rizzoli held a silver whistle and looked at the watch on his wrist.

The players of both teams are like big enemies, posing in their respective halves.

In the center circle, Suazzo and Ibrahimovic stand opposite each other.

Only a whistle was heard and Suazzo immediately kicked the ball to Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Almost at the same time, the Naples players moved upon hearing the news, and Qi Qi rushed towards the Inter Milan formation.

Led by Di Maria, Cavani and Sanchez with the trident in the frontcourt, followed by Hamsik, followed by the double midfielder and the entire back line, all of which are pressing.

As soon as Ibrahimovic kicked the ball back, Napoli's Cavani swept past him.

As soon as Cambiasso stopped the ball, he heard Stankovic in front of him shouting a word of caution, and then he saw Cavani rushing over.

The tall Uruguayan center is also fast.

Cambiasso immediately turned around and knocked the ball back to the backline.

Cavani immediately rushed past Cambiasso and approached the back line.

Qiu stopped the ball, and as soon as he adjusted, Cavani came up.

The Romanian defender was forced to pass the ball to Materazzi, but before Cavani got close, he changed direction, turned and ran towards Materazzi, which made the Italian central defender somewhat chaotic, for fear of being entangled. Immediately knocked back to goalkeeper Cesar.

Cesar didn't dare to be careless. Facing the return pass, he directly passed forward with a big foot.

Cavani, who sprinted half the pitch in one breath, waited for Cesar to pass a long pass before he slowed down. After stopping, he turned and ran back.

Looking at him like that, it seems as if he is afraid of being offside.

Cesar stood near the penalty spot, watching the situation on the pitch, and suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Because he saw that Naples' tridents were all against Inter Milan's defense.

This is a very aggressive position.

Combined with the pressing just now, it seems that they do not intend to give Inter Milan the slightest chance to breathe.

…

Cesar's hunch was right.

After the opening, the Naples players ran without hesitation to press and oppress the Inter Milan players.

The team they are best at presses and presses from a high position, making it difficult for Inter Milan to effectively play the ball, and can only passively pass long balls.

But each long ball fell to Napoli.

Both David Luiz and Bonucci were firmly in control, with David Luiz in particular failing to let the Swedish center grab the ball in his two head-to-head battles with Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Napoli also has more control over the second point.

After David Luiz grabs the ball, even if the second landing position is not good, it will still be obtained by the Napoli players.

And as soon as he got the ball, he immediately launched a counterattack, the speed of turning from defense to attack was very fast, and he played very directly.

This allowed the game to enter a fast-paced offense and defense from the very beginning, with the ball changing hands frequently.

But on the whole, Naples took the offensive, and Inter Milan fully retreated.

…

Mancini also saw Napoli's opening attack strategy, and he was not surprised at all.

That's what Naples is all about!

But as long as after these three axe, Naples will have a rest.

It can be said that this is a big test for Inter Milan in this game.

"Press forward a little, don't retreat too far back!" Mancini reminded his defense.

He is very aware of the problem of his midfielder's third midfielder and has already scored several goals at the front of the penalty area.

More importantly, blindly retreating is not a solution after all. You have to press your opponent out and stay as far away from your restricted area as possible.

The rhythm is fast.

Seeing that it was about three minutes, Inter Milan handed over to Maicon on the right when a quick ball was played in the backcourt.

In this 4-3-1-2 formation, the Nerazzurri have no regular wing players, and they can only rely on full-backs for wing attacks.

Maicon is the most active side of Inter Milan's attack.

After getting the ball, the Brazilian right-back moved forward quickly and was blocked on the wing by Biglia just as he was about to cross the center line.

The Brazilian tried to pass the ball to Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who was retreating, and then rushed forward quickly to form a cooperation.

Unexpectedly, David Luiz suddenly went around and stabbed the ball, preventing Ibrahimovic from getting the ball.

Biglia, who turned back to defend, took the lead to catch the ball, and before Maicon, who was on the spot, got close, he quickly passed it to Vargas.

Maicon abandoned Biglia and went straight to Vargas, trying to push Naples back.

After Vargas stopped the ball, he passed back to Bonucci, who was dragged at the end.

At this time, Suazzo quickly chased after Bonucci.

But after the Italian central defender stopped Vargas' pass, he glanced ahead and saw Suazzo approaching, and he quickly made a long pass.

The ball crossed an elegant arc from the front of Naples' penalty area, leaped over the layers of defense, and fell to the back of Inter Milan's defense.

On the left of Naples frontcourt, a sky blue figure was sprinting fast.

The entire stadium suddenly boiled.
