Chapter 102 Inter Milan Without Forwards

"Everyone, after this game, no matter what the result is, we have a high probability of winning the Serie A championship trophy."

In the locker room at halftime, Pan Yi simply said a few words with a smile on his face:
"But to make our celebration more enjoyable, let's play the second half of the game seriously!!!"

There really isn't much to stress about.

At the tactical level, it seems that Stella Maggioni on the opposite side is still a little tender, and there is no effective response to Milan's style of play.

In terms of morale, the opponent is Inter Milan, and if they win, they can win the championship... For these substitute players who don't have many opportunities to play, there is no need to do too much mobilization and motivation.

So, as soon as the break time came, the Milan players rushed back to the court screaming.

Sure enough, as soon as the second half started, Milan took the lead in the fight with Inter Milan.

The first is a central attack.

Nesta, Mexes, De Sciglio and others first turned their feet in the backcourt, and then suddenly reached the midfield. After passing consecutively between Van Bommel, Ambrosini and Flamini, they quickly Advancing to the periphery of Inter Milan's penalty area.

Seedorf rubbed the ball up, center Inzaghi gently unloaded the ball with his back, leaned against Inter Milan defender Lucio with his body, then turned around and volleyed!
Fortunately, Inter Milan goalkeeper Cesar focused and hit the ball with both fists.

But Milan got the ball again at the top of the arc. Flamini took a step sideways to shake the angle and shot angrily. The ball brushed the post and missed the goal.

Although the goal was missed, Milan's attack once again showed their advantage in the middle.

Large number of players, smooth pass and cut coordination, and firm shooting.

This also reflects the greater improvement in the confidence of Milan players after leading by two goals.

In contrast to Inter Milan, the number of people involved in the offense has increased, the team's offensive and defensive rhythm has also accelerated, and the pressing against Milan has also risen to a higher level.

Apparently Stella Maggioni also made some arrangements during the intermission.

After all, they are the one behind now. If they don't want to see their rivals in the same city celebrate their victory at home, they can only fight it out.

In this way, from the beginning of the second half, the two sides played in the fast pace of you coming and going, which was much more exciting than the drowsy scene at the beginning of the first half.

"Now the offensive and defensive transition speed of the two teams is very fast, and it is very enjoyable to watch."

He Wei, the commentator of CCTV5, also said: "This is the Milan Derby we like. Director Zhang, what do you think of the changes at the beginning of the second half?"

Zhang Lu's voice sounded: "Hey. This game is fun, but it's not a good thing for Inter Milan."

He Wei: "Oh? Did Director Zhang discover anything?"

Zhang Lu cleared his throat and said:

"In the second half, Stella Maggioni wanted to get back the score and regain control of the midfield, so he had to compete with Milan for the ball."

"But the Christmas tree formation that Pan Yi used today is to concentrate his forces in the middle, and most of the ball's transmission is also carried out in the middle of the midfield."

"In this way, Inter Milan's players are also unknowingly leaning towards the middle. Isn't this just playing into Pan Yi's arms?"

"No matter how hard you try, you have inherent disadvantages in formation and personnel arrangement. Once the ball cannot be grabbed and there is a loophole in the defense, Milan only needs to look for Inzaghi's point and hit one accurately."

"I think the main reason is that Stella Maggioni is too anxious. He has not long been the head coach of Inter Milan, and he obviously wants to prove his ability by defeating Pan Yi."

"But now that the score is behind at halftime, it makes him even more unable to think calmly. Playing like this is Milan's favorite."

He Wei: "According to Director Zhang, wouldn't Inter have no chance at all?"

Zhang Lu: "That's not true. After all, Milan's starting lineup today is still too old. How long they can support such a high-paced game is still unknown."

"After 70 minutes or even 60 minutes of the game, after the Milan players' physical strength declines, maybe Inter Milan will have a chance."

"It's just that the Inter Milan players themselves are not young..."

"So, it still depends on the adjustments made by the coaches of both sides, hehe."

……

On the field now, the situation is exactly as Zhang Lu said.

Although Inter Milan is fighting fiercely, there are very few real opportunities.

Milan set up a formation along the center line, taking advantage of the number of people to pass continuously in the center and back, making Inter Milan's frontcourt pressure a bit ineffective.

When Inter Milan gets the ball, it is often because Milan's offense is resolved.

When Inter Milan is attacking, the frontcourt players often have to face Milan's defense layer after layer, making it extremely difficult to advance.

This is still due to Stella Maggioni's misjudgment of Milan's formation early in the morning.

Therefore, although Inter Milan's formation is already a 4231, the two wingers Alvarez and Maicon are both "temporary workers", and they do not have the breakthrough and inside cutting ability of a serious winger.

This led to Inter Milan's offense still relying heavily on the midfield scheduling of Sneijder and Cambiasso, that is, breaking through from the middle.

And it's hard to imagine how hard it is to get in the middle of the Christmas tree.

So the second half went on for more than ten minutes, Inter Milan played lively on the scene, but didn't even take a shot!
Moreover, in this game, striker Milito was watched by Nesta on the opposite side. Although he did not do nothing, he did not perform much.

Many times, Milito began to deliberately avoid Nesta and hit the point of Mex, but he didn't take advantage of it.

Without the support of two wingers, he is always alone in the front line, looking alone.

Finally, Stella Maggioni couldn't stand it anymore and made a decisive substitution.

Enter Pacini, exit Maicon.

Put on a striker, replace a "winger", let Pazzini and Milito play double striker partner.

At the same time, it also allowed Alvarez to return to his more familiar position as a full-back, and Inter Milan's tactical formation has also become 442.

Pacini is a good local striker, but that's all. If you want to say top, it's still far away.

This is something Stella Maggioni can't help.

Because in the current Inter Milan, apart from Milito, there is no striker worth relying on.

The Cameroon cheetah Samuel Eto'o moved to Anzhi, Russia after playing the Italian Super Cup at the beginning of the season, taking his world's first annual salary.

The Uruguayan striker Diego Forlan, who was introduced to replace him, was a bit unacceptable. After one season, he represented the team in 20 appearances in various competitions and only scored 2 goals.

So today he wasn't even on the team's roster.

As for Cassano, who was introduced from Milan at the beginning of the season...

He's in pretty good shape, but recently he had an argument with Stella Marcioni in a training session, and he's currently being suspended by the team, so let's not mention it.

A good horse can't cook without grass!
So I can only use Pazzini.

And now this 442 is exactly the formation that Stella Maggioni has used in some previous games and the effect is not bad.

He just wants to use this formation to attack Milan's defense in the last moments of the game!
