magic coach

Inter Milan usually uses 433 and 442 against opponents whose strength is not as good as their own. Facing opponents with comparable strength, most of them adopt the Christmas tree formation of 4321.The strength of today's opponent Atlanta can only be said to be above average, weaker than Inter Milan, so Jiang Mu played in a 433 formation. However, in order to limit the opponent's offense, Jiang Mu deployed two offensive and defensive players beside Pirlo. The midfielder Brocchi and Farinos, Pirlo's position is slightly ahead, which looks a bit like a 4213 formation, but Pirlo's position is at the back.

On the front line, Vieri was rotated, Recoba served as the center, and on both sides of him were Robbie Keane and Zamorano, but Recoba sometimes retreated and connected with Pirlo, and at this time Zamorano And Robbie Keane also often cruised to the middle. Overall, Inter Milan's formation and style of play are very flexible.

Atlanta is obviously also prepared. Their 541 formation is very stable. The defensive area of ​​​​the five defenders is very wide. They can intercept the opponent's side attack outside the penalty area. Give your opponent a few.

4 midfielders are not too many, and they must not be said to be less. The two defensive midfielders are in front of the central defenders, and the other two midfielders are separated on both sides. This can not only increase the level of wing defense, but also quickly pass through in counterattacks. sidewalk.

Vavasoli's tactical arrangement is not very innovative. An ordinary coach will definitely choose to use this method to deal with Inter Milan, if the configuration allows it.And even if it's not Jiang Mu, just an ordinary coach, he can roughly guess Vavasoli's starting lineup for this game. Of course, Jiang Mu can definitely guess a good one.

To know is to know, just like most Serie A coaches know what formation Capello likes to play and what kind of players to use, but this does not mean that knowing can do it. There will always be a contradiction between knowing and doing.

At the beginning of the game, Inter Milan played very fast, hoping to catch Atlanta by surprise, but because Atlanta defended very well, their fast pace only consumed more physical energy, and did not bring much to Atlanta's goal. threaten.Then Inter Milan's metronome and brain Pirlo slowed down, preparing to fight a protracted battle with Atlanta.

Atalanta ignored the changes in Inter Milan's rhythm and tactics. They have always played according to the established rhythm and have not changed because of Inter Milan's changes. Although it is not flexible enough to respond to changes, it reduces the chance of making mistakes. Chance, after 30 minutes in the opening game, Inter Milan still had no way to break through Atalanta's goal.

The Inter Milan fans in the stands were a little impatient. After Jiang Mu's arrival, Inter Milan basically scored a goal in about 10 minutes. The goalkeepers rarely waited so long for a game without seeing a goal.

The applause and shouts have never stopped. The fans of Inter Milan have never been impatient, but they are very passionate and devoted to supporting their team. The atmosphere they create at home often makes their opponents scared and their players Full of confidence.However, today's opponents are really tough. No matter how earth-shattering the momentum they create, no matter how vigorous the offensive Inter Milan plays, they just can't break through Atlanta's goal.

"Enter one!"

"Enter one!"

The fans of Inter Milan, led by the die-hard fans in the North Stand, uttered urging shouts, hoping to allow Inter Milan to increase their firepower and break through the gate of Atlanta.

The fans in the stands were anxious. In fact, the Inter Milan players on the field were even more anxious. Although Roma and Juventus did not score on the other field, what they wanted now was not to maintain a two-point advantage, but to take the lead. The point gap is widened with the opponents.

Jiang Mu also felt the targeting and strength of the opponent's defense. Because he was worried about Atlanta's counterattack firepower, he sent two defensive midfielders. Now it seems that he is a bit too cautious. The existence of the two defensive midfielders is true. It made the goal safer, but it also affected Inter Milan's attack power, which seemed a bit outweighed.

However, judging from the situation of the game, Inter Milan has firmly gained the upper hand. They did not break through Atlanta's goal in 10 minutes, but there were many threatening offenses, but due to various reasons, they never scored. More importantly, although Inter Milan did not score. Scored a goal, but in 10 minutes, Atlanta hardly even had a chance to shoot. The lone striker Ventola was like a beast in a cage. Apart from an outrageous long shot, he didn't show any performance. The other two threatening forwards Rossini and Ganz did not play at all.

Therefore, the current stalemate is not caused by one side, but the product of the compromise between the two sides. If Inter Milan wants to attack quickly, it must adjust and increase its offensive strength. However, there are only 11 people on the field. Increasing the offensive strength will reduce the defensive strength. The possibility of them breaking the opponent's goal increases, which also means that the possibility of their own goal being broken is also increasing.

Jiang Mu doesn't want to take risks. Now that Roma and Juventus have not scored, he doesn't need to be so anxious. He waits steadily for his opponent to make mistakes, and waits for the arrival of goals. It is more in line with Inter Milan than taking risks to increase offense This is the difference between Dajiangshan and Baojiangshan.

However, the game will definitely not proceed step by step like this, the reality is always more dramatic than the plan.

When the game reached 35 minutes, news of a goal came from another venue. Roma captain Totti scored a free kick, and Roma led Juventus 1: 0 in the away game. One minute later, Lazio also scored, and they led Barry 1-1.

This is a big stimulus for Inter Milan, because at the end of the game with such a score, Inter Milan will be tied by Roma in points, and the points gap between Lazio and Lazio will also fall within the range of one goal. It is difficult to accept for Inter Milan, which has just seized the leading position.

Jiang Mu made a decisive substitution, but he did not replace his confidant Seedorf, but replaced Dalma with a stronger impact, and replaced Falinos, who was mediocre, to strengthen the midfielder's attack power and strength. creativity.

Dalma's playing has improved Inter Milan's offense, but with Dalma's strength, it is obviously difficult to think of the immediate effects of Ronaldo and Vieri. He does not have that strength, and he does not have that reputation. The improvement of offense is only partial and sporadic, and it also takes a long time to see it.

Seeing Jiang Mu's substitution, Vavasoli didn't sit still this time. Instead, he came to the sidelines and waved boldly to his players, signaling that they would boldly invest in their attacking forces and put pressure on Inter Milan's defense and midfield. , To relieve the pressure on his defense line by encircling Wei and saving Zhao.

Both sides have changed, and the rhythm of the game has become tense and intense again.

In the 40th minute of the game, Inter Milan launched a siege to Atlanta's penalty area. Except for Cordoba and Materazzi on the back line, everyone pressed into Atlanta's half. They were going to complete a goal in the last 5 minutes. ball.

Zanetti and Dalma joined forces. After Dalma was brought down, Inter Milan got a free kick from the side. Although the position is average, the free kick in this position is also a great opportunity to attack. , Pirlo came to the front court to take a free kick, and most of Inter Milan's players came to the penalty area to grab points.

Pirlo took a very weird free kick. The ball was not touched by anyone. It bounced in the penalty area and went straight to the far corner of the goal. At this time, the goalkeeper Taibi had already fallen to the ground to catch the ball. Did not pounce, the ball flew past him.

Seeing the ball fly into the net, the defender cleared the ball with a kick at this time.

The players and fans of Inter Milan thought the ball had been scored, so they shouted loudly, indicating that the ball had entered the net, and Pirlo also raised his hands high, ready to celebrate.

At this time, more than half of the ball has already flown into the net, but because the rules of the game stipulate that the ball can only be counted if it crosses the goal line as a whole, so the referee did not award a goal from a cautious point of view, but signaled the game to continue.

It was just such a moment of relaxation. Inter Milan's midfielder failed to intercept Atalanta's midfielder Doni. He received a header from his teammate and rushed out of the encirclement with the ball. In the halftime, Ventola quickly followed up in the middle, and the two shot toward Inter Milan's halftime like two bullets.

At this time, Inter Milan's defensive player on the right was their captain Zanetti, but at this time Zanetti was still in the frontcourt, and Dalma, who was in charge of intercepting in the middle, was also the main attack. A fast horse on the wing easily killed halftime.

There are two people returning to the defense in the middle, Brocchi and Cordoba, both of them are not disadvantaged in speed, especially Cordoba, he can completely keep up with Ventola, but whether Brocchi or Cordoba Erdoba, it is very difficult for anyone who wants to intercept Doni on the side. Even if he catches up, he is likely to be passed because he runs too fast.

But in a very short period of time, Inter Milan formed a 2-on-2 situation in the half, and the players on both sides chasing back and assisting seemed unable to participate in the offense and defense. They were really far behind.

Brockey saw Doni approaching from the side to the center when he was dribbling the ball. He felt that it was a good time to intercept, so he also ran diagonally and rushed towards the line where Doni was running.

Doni gradually leaned toward the center, and when he saw Brocchi approaching, he suddenly dialed the ball laterally, made an emergency stop, and then ran toward the center.

Ventola cleverly changed his running route, thinking to the left, as if he wanted to cross-cooperate with Doni.

Brockey wasn't fooled either, he was also controlling his center of gravity when running, and he didn't get knocked down, but moved with Donnie.

Cordoba also ran closely behind Ventola, preventing Ventola from receiving the ball.

However, Doni didn't continue to dribble the ball at this time. He just moved the ball to adjust the angle of the goal. After getting close to the goal, he directly kicked his feet and shot it. The ball flew straight to the far corner of the goal like a fired shell. .

This shot was extremely sudden, because at this time Doni was at least 35 meters away from the goal. In the situation of 2v2, continuing to cooperate with the ball is more beneficial than a long shot.

However, because of this, Donis' long shot became more sudden. Frey never thought that he had been sealing the near corner. When he saw Donis shot at the far corner, it was too late for him to make a save, and the ball went out. A wonderful arc flew into the net.

1:0

Atalanta took the lead on the road.
