Football: The butcher in the midfield at the start, the magic bird stunned

Chapter 172 Three British Fighting Xiaoliang

"ladies and gentlemen!"

"I invite the 2021 Copa Award, the best young player in the world!"

"Chen! Little! Bright!"

"Papa papa papa papa papa papa papa papa papa papa papa papa"

"Yo Yo! Whoa!"

The sound of gongs and drums, the sound of firecrackers, the fluttering of red flags, and the crowds of people.

Chen Xiaoliang held up the trophy, which was a golden disk held up by several straight thick lines like a monument.

I can't tell what the original intention of the design is. Anyway, the trophy of the Copa Award was not like this at the beginning.

The earliest design was in the shape of a tree, and all the branches were the surnames of previous Golden Globe winners.

Such as Modric, Messi, Beckenbauer and so on.

But still came up with an oolong.

For example, Ronaldo who is more conspicuous on the trunk, which Ronaldo is it?
Fans of Ronaldo and Ronaldo do not give in to each other. You move out of the World Cup and say Ronaldo is better, and he moves out of the Champions League and the number of Golden Globe awards and say Ronaldo is better.

The organizers didn't know whether it was too busy or something. In a conspicuous position, they put the BEST of the former Northern Ireland legend and Manchester United superstar George Best in front of Messi.

So fans of Messi and Barcelona had a carnival, saying that the Golden Globe Award was a real hammer, implying that Messi is the best one.

In the second year, "French Football" directly replaced the trophy.

The 2019 winner De Ligt and the 2020 winner Haaland both received the same redesigned trophies as Chen Xiaoliang.

At this moment, only half of the deafening cheers and shouts from the Roma fans were for Chen Xiaoliang.

The other half went to Inter Milan players.

As a courtesy, Inter Milan's players lined up on the other side of the Roma players and watched Chen Xiaoliang's brief presentation.

But they didn't care, their expressions were very relaxed.

Although Varela was once selected as a candidate for the 2017 Golden Boy Award, he did not enter the final competition. However, with Inter Milan's strong championship last season and his outstanding performance, he and his teammate Lao Tarot has been selected for the 24-man shortlist for the Golden Globes.

He was 26th, while Lautaro was 21st.

It's proof enough that the pair are already among the best players on the planet.

Slightly different from what Mourinho and his coaching team expected, it seems that they also see that there will be some problems with their defense on the left. In this game, Bastoni will serve as the left center back in the three-center back system, while the right center back will be used. The team's regular substitute, the 33-year-old D'Ambrosio.

In this way, on the left, behind Perisic with weak defensive ability is Bastoni with excellent defensive ability;

On the right, D'Ambrosio, who has a slow defensive speed, is in front of the right wingback Dumfries with excellent running ability.

It seems that the coach of Inter Milan, Inzaghi, understood the chain defense.

The rest of the starting lineup followed the previous lineup, which was exactly in line with Roma's predictions.

In front of the three midfielders Charhanoglu, Brozovic, and Barrera are Lautaro and Dzeko, one left, one right, one fast and one high.

The goalkeeper is captain Handanovic.

And Mourinho also made changes, which surprised the local media and fans in Rome.

The three central defenders are Mancini, Smalling and Kumbra from right to left;
Ibanez served as the right wing back and Viña left wing back;

Obviously, Mourinho knows that with Karlsdorp's defensive ability, he is completely unable to compete with Perisic and Charhanoglu's alternating attacks, so he simply sent all the central defenders in the team who are relatively fastest and have relatively good defensive ability. The reliable Ibanez went to block the right, and also hoped to cause unplanned troubles to the opponent.

The double defensive midfielders are still Christian and Wellertu, and Chen Xiaoliang is in front of them;

The striker played a combination of Zaniolo and Sesco.

Pellegrini and Abraham both sat on the bench with solemn expressions.

This unprecedented configuration is naturally a double-edged sword. If it is used well, it is called not playing cards according to the routine and punching the master to death. If it is not used well, you will be confused before you mess up your opponent.

Especially Ibanez, when he was in Fluminense, Brazil, he used to play left back and midfielder, but he never played right back, or even a right wing back with a relatively higher position.

Many fans are not only delighted with the changes made by Mourinho, but also think that he has indeed spent his time trying to make up for the shortcomings of the team, but they are also worried about whether temporary changes and letting players who are not familiar with positions can play a role. as it should be.

However, at this time, one side of the media made an "alternative" voice...

The South Korean media, who have nothing to do with Roma, Inter Milan, and this game, spoke out intensively, using "hype", "shady", "meteor" and "injury Zhongyong" to predict Chen Xiaoliang's future prospects.

There is no other reason, it is because the results of this year's Copa Awards hurt their self-esteem.

South Korean player Lee Kang-in was ranked 2019th in the second Copa Awards in 9 when he was 18 years old;
The 27-year-old Sun Xingmin ranked 30nd among the 22 candidates for the Golden Globe Award that year.

At that time, both rankings refreshed the best results of Asian players in the world's major individual awards.

Needless to say, how proud and proud Koreans are for this.

Even for many Korean fans, Lee Kang-in's La Liga team Mallorca has become the second home team after Sun Xingmin's Tottenham Hotspur.

The Copa Award that year was won by the current Juventus central defender De Ligt, and he was also the Golden Boy Award last year. Therefore, the Korean media generally claimed that Lee Kang-in's loss to De Ligt was not because of his lack of strength, but because of his platform. It is not as good as the other party in terms of identity and background.

But right now, Chen Xiaoliang directly took the first place in the Copa Award, making some Koreans with strong self-esteem unable to sit still.

You said that De Ligt has Ajax genes, Juventus platform bonus, the halo of the Dutch national team, and can find some self-comfort, so what does Chen Xiaoliang say?
Youth training... He has no youth training at all, and the actual time he stayed at Tottenham is too short, and he can barely be regarded as a half-baked youth training for Glasgow Rangers.

wealthy?Su Chao's wealthy family has left Scotland, who will regard him as a wealthy family?

Rome?A Europa League team that has not been able to enter the Champions League for many years in a row, and whose ancestors have no big enough champions, who would regard him as a European giant.

national team?Don't talk about it, more than ten or 20 years ago when the Red Country media talked about the South Korean national team, there was another word called "Koreaphobia", which means that as soon as they meet South Korea, they will make mistakes and lose.

Now?These three words are too embarrassing for the Red Country sports media to mention them.

Even fear is disqualified when failure is the order of the day.

Just like no one will give the Red Country men's football team a "phobia", "Germany", or "Spanish".

Korean media is in disarray.

For some ethnic groups and people, it is completely acceptable to lose to Europeans and Americans with high noses and white skin, but it is unacceptable to lose to Asians with black hair and yellow skin.

But the Copa Award is not the Winter Olympics, and the French will not give them the opportunity to drag and shamelessly appeal.

But Huang Tian paid off, they still "reported" a "news".

It is said that Mourinho let his super agent Mendes operate behind the scenes, bought most of the Golden Globe winners, and finally changed the ending through such forcible interference.

This is not enough, they also dug out the example of Kluivert Jr.

The second son of the Dutch legend is also in Rome. In 2019, he ranked 9th in the Copa Awards, but he quickly declined and was rented out by the club consecutively. This season, he was rented to Nice in Ligue [-].

So those Korean media came to the conclusion that Chen Xiaoliang is the next Kluivert Jr.

However, all analysis and predictions must be confirmed by actual combat.

Therefore, in this game, Inter Milan unexpectedly gained a large number of Korean fans...

Zhang Kangyang, the boss of their Red Country, was also in a daze...

The outside is the outside, and the inside is the inside!
After the referee Marco Dibello communicated with the captains of the two sides, Chen Xiaoliang and Handanovic, the two sides stood still, and then he blew the whistle to start the game!

"Beep!"

In front of Lautaro, Zaniolo kicked off with a familiar inverted foot to officially start the game!
Chen Xiaoliang didn't stop the ball, and directly split the ball to Binia on the left.

Zaniolo and Cesco started pressing forward.

Binia sent it back to Chen Xiaoliang.

Barrera jumped up.

In this game, cutting off Chen Xiaoliang's forward line of the ball is the main defensive task of the Italian midfielder.

Chen Xiaoliang still kept the ball. Faced with Barrera's pressure, any extra movement would lead to the loss of the ball. When he rubbed the outside of his right foot, the ball immediately flew up and floated towards Sesco.

As the bridgehead in the front section of Rome, Sesco's huge role and power in Rome's offensive has long been revealed.

It is Inter Milan's defensive core Skriniar who is mainly responsible for defending Cesko in this field.

Facing the floating ball, the two struggled for a while. Cesko overwhelmed Skriniar to hit the ball, and then unloaded his feet and completed the catch beautifully.

"Beep!"

The referee Marco Dibello blew the whistle, signaling Cesco to foul and elbowed someone.

Cesko spread his hands, looking surprised.

"Is this all blowing?! This is a reasonable confrontation, and there is no unnecessary movement of the hands!"

Mourinho on the sidelines complained to the fourth official.

The fourth official frowned, and made a very serious back gesture to Mourinho, meaning to let him return to the coach's command area and not run out.

Mourinho has nothing to do. He also knows that he is now a "special target" among Serie A referees. Try not to go to the sidelines to direct, but sit quietly on the coach's bench and watch.

Skriniar kicks off and hits to the left.

Perisic received the ball and took a few steps, but Ibanez did not dare to relax at all, his eyes were fixed on Perisic's steps.

Perisic did not choose to do it hard, and went straight into the penalty area diagonally. Barrera stepped in and prepared to cross again. Mancini destroyed the ball first.

Mourinho applauded from the sidelines, expressing encouragement to Ibanez and Mancini.

Roma got the ball again, but the offense was not organized smoothly.

Inter Milan's formation is kept very tight. The three central defenders and two wing backs will choose to shrink or expand at any time according to the degree of pressure in Roma's midfield.

At the same time, the dedication of the two wide players Perisic and Dumfries to defense has also greatly exceeded Chen Xiaoliang's expectations.

The defending champion took a very pragmatic stance, patiently looking for opportunities in the offense, and often cooperated in a small area in the penalty area to find opportunities for crossing the middle or passing from the bottom;

In the defense, they pay great attention to the defense in depth. They would rather lower the offside line than give Roma a chance to penetrate the defense with a through ball.

On the fulcrum, Skriniar will compete with Cesco for almost every header, and Bastoni and D'Ambrosio beside him will defend at any time and compete for the second penalty.

And Brozovic is really like Joao said, like a taxi trying to pick up passengers, although he can't run at the speed of Ferrari, every time you see him, he is running!
He is responsible for cutting the passing route on the ground, Skriniar is responsible for intercepting high-altitude balls, Chen Xiaoliang cannot effectively deliver shells to Cesko, and can only move constantly in the midfield, catch the ball, split sides, and pass back. Let Roma move the ball.

But looking back at Inter Milan, their offense is also in the testing stage.

In the 8th minute, Dumfries broke through from the right, and under the pressure of Vigna, he crossed the center.

Barrera inserted into the penalty area, as if he was going to catch the ball from behind, while Charhanoglu moved to the left, as if he was going to catch the ball in the middle and transfer the ball, and launch a side attack.

But Lautaro suddenly retreated, and while running, he stretched out his hand to signal the ball to pass quickly.

Brozovic, who received the ball, looked up and flicked the ball.

As a result, he didn't pass to anyone, but directly kicked a long shot!

As soon as the ball flew out, Chen Xiaoliang, who rushed over from the side, blocked it with his heel with a sliding shovel.

Brozovic was taken aback, while Barrera was taken aback. Both of them were surprised at how fast Chen Xiaoliang was.

For the ball just now, a cross was paired with the three actors on the left, center and right. They were full of drama and successfully tricked Ibanez, Smalling and Mancini to focus on them.

Only Chen Xiaoliang still rushed to Brozovic and fell to the ground ahead of time with a shovel.

This obviously judged the true intention of the attack.

"interesting."

"Ok?"

Chen Xiaoliang only heard someone talking next to him, and turned his head to see that it was Barrera.

"I said, it seems that there are indeed two brushes." Barrera thought that Chen Xiaoliang didn't hear clearly, so he said it again with a different meaning.

Chen Xiaoliang smiled. Could it be that he still needs to say "thank you" at this time?
Seeing that Chen Xiaoliang lacked a point of contact for the ball when he got a chance to pass the ball in the frontcourt, Wellertu took the initiative to press up and cooperate with the offensive organization.

But with such a move, he entered the ambush circle of the Inter Milan midfielder.

The Inter Milan midfielder, originally dominated by Barrera and Brozovic, aimed to cut off and put pressure on Chen Xiaoliang, preventing him from passing the ball forward comfortably.

And Chen Xiaoliang's active running and non-ball-holding and non-dribbling style of play left Inter Milan's two midfielders with no chance of directly stealing the ball.

But now Wellertu is pressing up and immediately shared the number of balls Chen Xiaoliang received in the midfield.

But the Frenchman will not insist on playing the ball with one kick. He likes to get in behind, like to push forward, and will stop and take the ball in the midfield.

He likes to play like this, and Barella likes him like this.

For a moment, Weiletu thought he was training in the team, because he saw a midfielder rushing towards him, disrupting his balance and dribbling with an unreasonable close-to-body collision. Then he broke the ball.

Just like what Chen Xiaoliang has done to himself in team training since the first day he came to Rome.

After taking a closer look, I found that this person was wearing size 23, half his head was short, and he was wearing a blue and black striped shirt. He was not his teammate at all!

After Barrera snatched the ball and moved directly to the left, Charhanoglu had been waiting for a long time.

He catches the ball and adjusts one step to make a direct pass!
Dzeko!

Press Kumbra from behind and push the ball out like a mountain!

Patricio, who moved ahead of time, dragged the ball out of the baseline with one palm!

"Beep!"

Referee Marco Dibello blows his whistle again!
This time he also whistled Dzeko for pushing someone!
Inzaghi Jr. shook his head. He didn't choose to engage in unnecessary verbal disputes with the fourth official, and asked the players to pull away Dzeko who was arguing with the referee.

But it was too late, as soon as Dzeko said a few words in dissatisfaction, Marco Dibello gave him a yellow card!
"Is it too harsh?! What on earth is the referee trying to do?!"

Now Inzaghi couldn't bear it any longer, and went to the fourth official to question him loudly.

"Please go back to the coaching area!" The fourth official used the method against Mourinho to attack Inzaghi again.

Wellertu, who lost the ball just now, was frightened into a cold sweat, and almost caused the team to fall behind because of his loss.

But... Joao was right!
Calhanoglu's crossing ability is on par with Chen Xiaoliang, and Weiletu's former teammate Dzeko, after leaving Rome after transferring to Roma, has not lost his skill in the past. He is simply an old and strong Cesko!
Barrera, who has Chen Xiaoliang's stealing ability, snatches the ball under the cover of Brozovic, who has Chen Xiaoliang's running and stamina, and then passes it to Charhanoglu, who has Chen Xiaoliang's cross ability, and passes it to Bisesko Dzeko, who is more capable of competing for the top!
With the same idea as Wellertu, there are other players on the field in Rome.

The huge gap against Inter Milan last season made them not bother to think so much at all. Anyway, they can't play, so why think so much?
Today, with the arrival of the Mourinho era, the strong joining of Chen Xiaoliang and Sesco has given them great hope!

However, it was this hope that brought them a greater impact.

It's like a person who is climbing a mountain. When he is at the foot of the mountain, he looks up at the peak, but he can't really feel how much challenge the height of the mountain will bring. , Looking at the top of the mountain, you can understand that conquering a peak is by no means an easy task between talking and laughing!

"It seems that the referee established his prestige early after the opening! After all, this game is related to the championship and the top four pattern of the entire season! The start of the game is 10 minutes, and the two sides should be well-regulated first, and a stable balance must be found! This is also to prevent the game from going out of control!"

In the live broadcast room, in order to match the atmosphere of this focus battle, Penguin asked Zhan Jun and Huang Jianxiang to cooperate for the first time!
As we all know, Zhan Jun has been a professional commentator for Premier League teams since ESPN became famous, and he has always called himself a "commentator" self-effacingly.

Since his debut on CNBTV5 channel, Huang Jianxiang has commented many Serie A games in his early years, and he also has a special liking for Italy, especially the shocking roar in 2006, which not only became a famous meme for more than ten years, but also changed his career. the way.

"Teacher Jianxiang, what do you think?"

Huang Jianxiang: "I think it's the same, especially this season, Rome's games have encountered many disputes and penalties. Maresca was also punished to go to Serie B. At the same time, due to the arrival of Mourinho, there are a large number of his fans. Compared with the Premier League fans, the Serie A referee's whistle-blowing ability, field control ability and credibility have all been questioned by the outside world.

I think Marco Dibello has been taken care of today, and there should no longer be obvious controversies in the focus battle.

So he simply started with strict measures to kill the possibility of rising conflicts between the two sides at the first sign. "

While the two were talking, Patricio kicked a free kick. Cesco finally hit a high-altitude ball "cleanly" and returned it to Chen Xiaoliang, who was ten meters behind him.

Chen Xiaoliang immediately made a cross to the left, and Binia put in a long shot!
After the ball was blocked by D'Ambrosio's butt, it flew out of the touchline.

"In the first 10 minutes, the possession rate of the two sides was 37% to 63%. Inter Milan led by a large margin, but neither side completed a real shot. It was either a foul or a block that completely deviated from the direction of the goal.

All the competition revolves around the midfield and the sideways, constantly seesawing and going back and forth, which belongs to the fun of playing, but it is dull to watch. "

However, the voice of Zhan Jun's comment has not drifted far. In the 14th minute, the game turned in an amazing way!

Lautaro kicked a pass from outside the penalty area and was destroyed by Kumbra out of the baseline. Inter Milan took the corner kick on the left.

Without any suspense, Charhanoglu stood on the penalty spot.

Immediately, the penalty area was filled with players from both the offensive and defensive sides. There is me in you, and you in me!
Chen Xiaoliang also marked Bastoni near the penalty spot.

No one expected that Charhanoglu's corner kick flew out with an arc and height that seemed to have missed the correct part.

The post pass is out of the question, the ball flies very low.

The pass in the middle is obviously not strong enough.

Prequel?
Inter Milan did not deploy players before the point!
The ball flew halfway through the arc and flew towards the goal!

Patricio has his stance and hands in place, waiting for the ball to fly into his arms.

But the corner kick, which the script thought was harmless, suddenly dropped rapidly when turning the corner!
It completely exceeded the flight trajectory imagined in Patricio's subconscious reaction and mind!

The ball crossed the goal line between his legs!

Patricio stood there in a daze!
The players in Rome are collectively surrounded!
"An old goalkeeper who has experienced many battles and reached the top of Europe will be tricked by such a direct corner kick?!

incredible! "

Zhan Jun shouted excitedly.

Huang Jianxiang: "If you think he can't, he just caught him by surprise and caught him unprepared. Calhanoglu's corner kick is very thoughtful, and from the fact that he didn't deploy manpower in the previous point, it is obvious that he came prepared!"

Charhanoglu stood on the side of the corner flag with his hips akimbo, watching his teammates rush to him to celebrate the goal.

His move, which is not very famous, caused huge boos from the Roman fans in the stadium!

A group of fans near the stands attacked him violently, but Charhanoglu directly opened his hand and put it on his left ear, making a listening movement, and kept flapping his right hand, as if the voice was too small to listen to himself. Not the same.

Now, booing, cursing, and greetings to parents and mothers filled the audience!

The referee Marco Dibello immediately showed the Turk a yellow card!Stop his provocative behavior!
Barrage:

[Gooji's brain damage]

[Made, you can get in here, but Patricio will not be guaranteed in the evening]

[Dong Chuang quickly change to a goalkeeper in his prime!By the way, the guards have been changed!Rome can't win anything with this line of defense! 】

[This referee can really draw cards... but this one is beautiful]

[Cha 20 is really cheap, AC Milan fans are the first to dislike him]

[This referee can only use cards to control the field, it's really too watery, it's even more watery than Teacher Boduo]

【Upstairs, if you say that, I won't be sleepy】

　Thanks to the club director [I love xz skin is good] for the monthly pass!

　　Thanks to the club director [Old Shen who fascinated her Shen's family] for the monthly ticket!

　　Thanks to the club director [self-hanging southeast branch AC] for the monthly pass!
