Chapter 333： Doomed

At half-time, Mancini made a substitution adjustment and replaced Zanetti with Mani.

This is a very debatable substitution.

Among the three lower backs, Vieira is actually the one with the worst performance.

Just as Wenger sold Vieira back then, the reason was that he felt Vieira would usher in a lot of injuries.

It was okay when he was at Juventus, but after coming to Inter Milan, Vieira's performance has declined significantly and injuries have increased, but his temper is still very large.

For example, when he was substituted for his poor performance, he refused to shake hands with Mancini and kicked the drink box in front of him.

Tonight, Mancini arranged for Vieira to start, which is somewhat reassuring.

Another midfielder who is not very good is Cambiasso.

The Argentine midfielder has no strong sense of presence, and his organization and passing ability have not shown. This is very different from the fact that he has just returned from injury, and at the same time, he has been strongly oppressed by Hamsik, Biglia and Rakitic. big relationship...

In contrast, in fact, Zanetti can still do.

It's just that Naples has Vargas and Di Maria on the left, Maicon frequently added assists, and there are huge loopholes behind him, which caused Zanetti to fail to restrain Di Maria several times.

Mancini's substitution, the intention is obvious, is to strengthen the team's right defense.

But whether to change it this way is a matter of opinion.

…

The second half was a little surprising.

Whether it was Mancini, the professionals in the stands, or even the commentators in front of the TV, they all speculated that Naples would definitely not be able to exert a strong pressure on Inter Milan in the second half like the first half.

The reason is very simple, the physical fitness cannot meet this requirement.

The movement of the Napoli players throughout the first half was amazing.

Whether it is the frontcourt or the backcourt, even the center Cavani, all run more distance than the Inter Milan players.

This is simply outrageous!

So many movements, coupled with the advantage of uploading the ball, make Inter Milan overwhelming on the scene, which is not surprising.

But the player is not a perpetual motion machine, it is impossible to run like this all the time, right?

Therefore, they have speculated that in the second half, Naples will at most grab another wave at the beginning, and then start to slow down the pace, distribute their physical strength reasonably, and finish the game.

Even, Inter Milan has the opportunity to counterattack to regain the situation when Naples' physical fitness declines.

But actually?

From the beginning of the second half, Napoli continued to pursue hard.

Fifty minutes, sixty minutes...

Everyone was shocked to find that Naples showed no sign of slowing down.

The players are still outputting frantically, constantly passing and cutting, and patiently looking for opportunities.

Needless to say, just look at the group of aging players at rival Inter Milan, just keeping up with the rhythm of Napoli has already made them exhausted.

It can be said that the physical fitness and running ability of the two sides, as well as the tactical execution in the game, are completely different from each other.

"We can look at the movement data of the players on both sides so far in this game."

"Ibrahimovic has said before, he said that if he was allowed to run aggressively, he wouldn't make it to half-time."

"And now, when we compare the data of the Swedish center and the Napoli center Cavani, Ibrahimovic's running distance is only half of Cavani's, a little bit more, it's really only half-court level."

"Other Inter players are also inferior to the Napoli players, which is a shocking surprise."

"We are even wondering why Napoli players can run so well?"

…

When the game went to the 65th minute, Inter Milan made the second substitution of the audience.

Mancini replaced Materazzi with Crespo.

This made everyone in the chairman's stand bewildered.

"Materazzi is estimated to be injured in the split in the first half. Now he can't bear it, and he limped when he walked off the court, so this substitution is understandable, but why Crespo?"

"To replace a central defender and replace a center forward, is this going to give up and fight Naples?"

"I don't understand it at all. The midfield can't play the ball. What's the use of replacing a center like Crespo?"

"That's right, can Crespo go up and pass the ball to the frontcourt?"

"My God, with such a substitution, what about the back line?"

"On the bench, there is only one backup central defender, Rivas. It is estimated that Mancini wants to take a gamble."

"In the last game against Roma, when Crespo came on as a substitute, it changed the situation."

"That's different, now and then Napoli won't give Inter this chance."

"In other words, Mancini is betting that the physical fitness of the Naples players should be about the same. At this time, he wants to counterattack."

"Well, that makes sense, but..."

Just as he was talking, he saw that Naples' formation was steadily retreating on the pitch.

A very obvious scene is that the pressing and pressing in the frontcourt is not as pressing as before, but after a symbolic rush, it quickly retreats, and it is more to set up camp near the center line.

As soon as Inter Milan made a substitution and signaled an aggressive attack, Naples retreated, somewhat suspicious of showing timidity. It seemed that the physical fitness of the home team players was almost exhausted, and there were signs of taking the initiative to retreat.

The enemy retreats and I advance.

Inter Milan sighed and saw Naples retreat, and immediately dribbled the ball forward and began to prepare to plan an attack.

"I always feel an ominous premonition, is it so simple?" Lippi frowned.

Nicknamed Silver Fox, not only is he as cunning as a fox, but his tactical sense of smell is very keen.

Not only him, but also experienced coaches such as Trapattoni, Ventura and Ulivieri, all noticed the abnormality, but in the stadium, in front of the visiting team's coach, Mancini was still signaling the team to Press forward.

Authorities fans!

More importantly, Mancini must now turn things around as soon as possible.

He can't afford to lose this game!

A week later, it will be Inter Milan's centennial celebration. If he loses tonight and gives up the leader's throne, then Mancini is likely to face the punishment of dismissing his get out of class and resigning to apologize.

He has no choice!

…

When the game reached the 71st minute, Inter Milan pushed through the center line once, and wanted to find Crespo in front with a long pass, but Naples defender Bonucci headed back at the front of the penalty area.

Rakitic in the middle judged the landing point, turned his back to the attacking direction, and headed the ball directly.

After the ball fell, it rebounded and fell to the center line.

Sanchez ran back from the front, just in no-man's land to receive a header from Rakitic.

Stop, turn, start!

As soon as the Chilean winger started, the speed immediately picked up, dribbling the ball directly from the middle of Vieira and Cambiasso.

Before the two Inter Milan midfielders could attack, they were rushed by Sanchez.

The Chilean winger is small but quick, with a great dribbling ability and getting faster.

After Materazzi was substituted, Inter Milan had only three defenders.

Maxwell on the left was at the forefront as Sanchez hit his defense.

Qiu and Maicon in the middle are flanking Cavani, for fear that he will connect with Sanchez.

But as Sanchez was advancing rapidly, Cavani rushed from the oblique top of the arc to distance himself from Sanchez.

The benefits of this are many, both creating a one-on-one opportunity for Sanchez with Maxwell and creating a more favorable running route for himself.

Sanchez also understood it. When he dribbled the ball into the 30-meter area, he saw a gap without waiting for Maxwell to grab it. After calling Cavani, he quickly sent a diagonal pass.

The ball swept past Maxwell and landed directly at Cavani's feet.

During the run, Qiu and Maicon could not stick to Cavani without leaving an inch, causing Cavani to have enough space to deal with the ball, turning sideways, stopping Sanchez's pass with his left foot into the penalty area, and then When turning around, he pinned Maicon directly behind with his strong body, forcing the Brazilian right back to slow down.

Post it again, and Cavani immediately fell to the ground.

Qi Wu turned pale in shock and shoveled directly.

But Cavani was already prepared, and he gently moved the ball with his right foot in front of his left foot, avoiding Qiu's tackle. Heavy volley.

The whole process sounds long, but it actually happened in a very short period of time.

Everyone saw that Cavani stopped the ball and entered the penalty area. He turned and adjusted in one go. He shot with his left foot and the ball went straight to the left side of the goal.

Cesar struggled to make a save, UU read www. uukanshu.com even got the ball with one hand, but the ball just changed off the line a little, and the castration remained unabated, and it flew directly into the left side of Inter Milan's goal.

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!"

"Four to zero!!"

"My God, in the 71st minute of the second half, a quick counterattack from Naples scored Inter Milan's goal again!"

"Mancini's substitution is very debatable!"

"He wanted to bet on goals, but ended up going a step further, exposing his defenses to the fire of his opponents."

"Napoli's counterattack is very fast, Sanchez's dribbling and passing, Cavani's handling and shooting have left a deep impression on us."

"Four to zero! Inter Milan is really doomed tonight!"

After Cavani scored, he rushed directly to the sidelines, and an excited kneeling made him cheered by the fans in the audience.

Players such as Di Maria, Sanchez and Hamsik also chased after him, and they surrounded him in the middle.

Gao Shen is relatively calm.

Although he was very happy and even excited, he had calmed down a lot.

Four to zero!

This was something he didn't dare to think about before the game anyway, but he really didn't expect that Mancini would make such a substitution decision. Did he really think that copying the substitution when he played against Roma would not be enough? Can turn things around?

Or does he really not mind dropping a few more goals?

The game has already reached this point, and many things are no longer under the control of the head coach.

Even Gao Shen himself didn't know what the game would be like.

However, he is very much looking forward to it.
