magic coach

Game No. 80 minutes, after Inter Milan withstood Manchester United's attack and successfully slowed down the pace of the game, Manchester United's physical fitness was like a soap bubble being poked a hole, passing quickly, the players' running The movement is not as positive as before, the explosive power is insufficient, the pass error rate has increased, and the shots have begun to be unreliable.

The physical fitness of Inter Milan's players also began to decline, but because Inter Milan mainly controlled the ball to mobilize their opponents, they did not press much against Manchester United.

Originally, between the two giants teams, the impact of being a little stronger or a little weaker in physical fitness is not big, but Manchester United is a team that emphasizes overall and fast offense and defense. Speed ​​​​is the guarantee of their strong attack power. After that, Manchester United's fast-paced offense and defense could not be played, and their combat effectiveness dropped even more than Inter Milan.

Jiang Mu is known as the coach with the strongest on-the-spot command. This change to Manchester United was earlier than anyone else foreseen, and he reacted faster than any other coach. He immediately made another substitution adjustment, and the change was immediate. Two people, Farinos was replaced by Vieri, and Recoba was replaced by Forlan. After investing two new forces, Inter Milan played a three-forward tactic, still emphasizing possession, but now possession is no longer The highest principle, the highest principle is to score goals. Taking advantage of his illness to kill him, Jiang Mu hopes to solve Manchester United in the away game when Manchester United's physical strength is exhausted.

After the substitution, Inter Milan changed to 4213, Ronaldinho became the 1, in front of him was the main center Vieri, Ronaldo and Forandu pulled sideways.

Inter Milan made a sudden change at this time, which brought a great impact to Manchester United. After all, Sir Alex Ferguson is old and thinks a lot, and his reaction is not as fast as Jiang Mu. He hesitated a little and wanted to see Inter Milan. The new formation of play, and then make plans.

In the three to two minutes Ferguson hesitated, Inter Milan broke out four attacks, shot twice, and the ball hit the goal frame. Manchester United's defender was blasted to pieces, but Butters couldn't get in. His performance in the water was still very good. Inter Milan's two shots were miraculously saved by him.

In just two or three minutes, Ferguson also saw the characteristics of Inter Milan's new formation and style of play. Ronaldinho in the center has two functions. One is the organization of the front of the penalty area. In the middle, let the two sides make an assault and disperse the defensive force in the middle. Ronaldinho forced a breakthrough from the middle, and Di Bianho inserted the long shot.

This is a regular style of play, but because of the super personal abilities of Ronaldo and Ronaldinho, the pressure on Manchester United is very high. It is better to have Keane with a fierce defense in the middle, especially Ronaldo's explosive power on the wing It made Manchester United's full-backs terrified, and they were blown up without paying attention. Now that Inter Milan has Vieri in the middle, their ability to grab points and dominate the air has been greatly improved. This is one of the reasons why Manchester United's scene is ugly after 10 minutes. .

With Inter Milan dominating the scene, and Vieri, a powerful center, grabbing points in the middle, the problem of Manchester United's back line came to a big exposure.

The biggest problem for defenders is still the most important central defender.The biggest mistake for Manchester United was that Ferguson drove away Stam at the beginning of the season.Stam is Manchester United's pillar central defender. He is big and has a large defensive coverage. Although he is not fast and occasionally makes low-level mistakes as he grows older, his physical strength is extremely strong. A deterrent effect.

Stam was driven away not entirely because of technical problems, mainly because he revealed in his published autobiography that Ferguson was actually a tyrant and exposed a lot of insiders in the dressing room, and then Sir Alex Ferguson was furious. Thinking that Stam is almost 30 and the residual value available is not high, he was driven away.In order to replace Stam, Ferguson introduced the older Frenchman Blanco. As a result, Stam not only did not go downhill as Ferguson wanted, but Blanco fully proved that he is the old one. People who are going downhill, and still walking at extreme sports sliding speed.

Blanco is ok in air defense, but other than that, he can go to a nursing home.He is really too old, the old man can turn around for 3 seconds. This season, Blanco was humiliated many times by speed forwards. In 1998, Blanco was still a world-class central defender, but the football world has passed three years It's time for a new generation.

Under normal circumstances, Blanco's partner is Brown, who Ferguson hailed as "the once-in-a-century defensive wizard". Brown is young and mature, and has excellent abilities in all aspects. His biggest problem is too many injuries and bad luck. He can always just appear on the line of the ball to block the ball into his own goal, can just hit his own defense or close the defender or the goalkeeper who comes out to get the ball, and then let the opponent's striker hit the empty goal. Watching the opposing player inexplicably fall while defending, and then create a single shot, even a stop error can give an assist that even Zidane can't pass.

These two are partnered with central defenders, plus the neurotic buttery goalkeeper Butters, it is strange that Manchester United's defense has no problems.

But Brown is already good. Now that Brown has just recovered from his injury and is still sitting on the bench, Ferguson dare not use him easily. He uses Johansen, who is as old and slow as Blanco, and Manchester United appears on the center back. The problem is bigger than Blanco's partner Brown.

At the beginning, Inter Milan's offense was very unhappy. They focused on possession of the ball and consumed their opponents. They put little pressure on the defense and Manchester United's defenders were able to cope. There are many things to do, and the assist ability of full-backs Sylvester and Neville is very good.

But after 10 minutes, Manchester United's midfielder and striker's physical fitness declined, Inter Milan changed tactics and launched a fierce attack, and Manchester United's defense was under great pressure. At this time, their defense problems were almost exposed in turn. .

In the 805th minute of the game, when Inter Milan was pressing, Veron, who was not skilled in coordinating with the whole team, made a mistake in returning the ball. The ball was intercepted by Ronaldo, who was cruising from the side to the center.

Ronaldo dribbled the ball into the penalty area at high speed, and Vieri, who cooperated with Ronaldo tacitly, immediately ran to the side, took away defender Johansen, and made room for Ronaldo to break through with the ball.

Facing Blanco alone, Ronaldo certainly doesn't need to make fake moves against an experienced but slow central defender. Passed by Blanco who was still in a daze.

Butters, who had made two miraculous saves before, made a quick attack and jumped out like a rabbit with his shiny bald head, but just when all the Manchester United fans were looking forward to Butters showing his performance The magic in the World Cup in 98, when blocking Ronaldo's one-handed attack, Butters ran a few steps but stopped suddenly, without any jumping or saving action, as if he had been hit by a fixed body, he stayed still and used the grudge He looked at Ronaldo for a full tenth of a second, and then rushed over quickly.

For an ordinary striker, [-] second may not have raised his foot, but for Ronaldo, [-] second has allowed him to easily get the ball and dodge Butters' save.

Pushing the empty goal, the ball hit the net, and Ronaldo overtook the score for Inter Milan.

2:1

The moment the goal was scored, Old Trafford was silent. The Red Devils couldn't believe their eyes. Is Butters swollen?What's wrong with him?Every Manchester United fan has a depressing and confusing question in the back of their mind.

The fans of Inter Milan are of course not interested in caring about Butters, why Veron assisted Ronaldo, they only have one thought in their minds, Inter Milan scored, 2:1, they are almost going to the semi-finals, one of the most difficult The entangled opponent was trampled under their feet again.

When Inter Milan shouted frantically, England's on-site commentator Ryle finally burst into anger that he couldn't hide, "God! What happened to Butters? He actually made a mistake that only an amateur player made. , Is he thinking about life? Whether he can get the ball or not, at that time, he can only pounce on it. The consequences of hesitation are greater than standing still. This is a problem his wife knows. Butters, you have disappointed the fans of Manchester United... And Veron, in this dangerous area, don't you look at it when you pass the ball? If you are not sure, and you don't have a tacit understanding with your teammates, don't pass back, let You play to pass the ball to your own striker, not to the opponent's striker...Branko, Blanco! You are slow, slow to turn, don't you have a slow brain? Look at your performance , Sir Ferguson is better than you in person..."

The expression on Sir Ferguson's face was very exciting. He was as if he had been thrown a pile of dung by his own son. He was angry, helpless, and desperate. In the end, all his emotions turned into anger.

"Shit! Your performance is shit! Bastard Butters! You should be sitting on the bench! Blanco! You idiot, I put a stake at the front of the penalty area is more effective than you! You put Man Utd is in trouble!"

In fact, I really don’t blame Ferguson for being angry. Conceding a goal at this time is a disaster for Manchester United. They have almost no time to equalize the score, and the 1:2 result means that they must play Inter Milan in the away game for a 2 if they want to come back. :0., Judging from the performance of the back line today, a 2:0 score is almost impossible, and the probability of Manchester United being eliminated is at least 80.00%.

Seeing the goal, Jiang Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and hugged Baresi next to him tightly, saying, "It's almost time to withdraw."
