Long live the King of Balls

Chapter 166 We Are the Champions 8

Bernet, in the dressing room of Inter Milan.

Mourinho arranged the tactics for the last time, and then began the final mobilization.

"I don't need to say more about the importance of this game, because I see the light in your eyes. I know what it is. This is the desire for the championship! This is a wonderful season, and your performance is worthy of any championship trophy!"

On strength. Manchester City is definitely not as good as ours. Such opponents need us to be more patient, because they may be defensive. This team's defensive counterattack is very sharp. Although it has never played against them, we have analyzed their game videos countless times, and you should know it yourself. So, don't worry after the game starts. According to our pre-match deployment, the victory must belong to us!"

When the players set off, Mourinho stood at the door of the dressing room, shook hands with each player and patted them on the shoulder, as if an old marshal was sending off the soldiers who were about to go.

After the simple, grand and spectacular opening ceremony of the final, the 2009/2010 UEFA Champions League final began with a whistle from Swiss referee Busaca.

Not long after the game began, Mourinho frowned.

"Inter Milan is in trouble." The Italian commentator said, "They don't seem to expect that Manchester City will attack with all its strength at the beginning of the final... Generally speaking, in a game like the Champions League final, few teams will attack with all their strength at the beginning of the game. Manchester City caught Inter Milan off guard."

Mourinho did not expect that Manchester City would dare to launch a crazy attack abnormally at the beginning of the game in the final.

Only five or six minutes after the opening, Manchester City really threatened Cesar's goal and almost scored a goal.

Zhang Yang received a pass from Tevez. After a beautiful turn to get rid of Qiwo, he opened the shot and directly volleyed.

Cesar made a wonderful flight save, the football bounced aside, and the follow-up Modric tried to shovel the shot. Fortunately, Sanetti cleared the football in time.

Manchester City's attack made Inter Milan a little panicked and the defense was a little embarrassed.

Despite the failure of this attack, Zhang Yang beat his chest excitedly and gestured to the Manchester City fans in the stands to stimulate the mood of the fans.

In fact, after the player came out, from the moment he stepped into the Bernabeu Stadium, Zhang Yang was in a kind of excitement.

He is the captain of Manchester City. When shaking hands with Sanetti and exchanging team flags, his expression is excited and eager to start the game immediately forms a sharp contrast with Sanetti's calmness. The commentator also sighed that this was a handshake and dialogue between the youngest captain of the Champions League final team and a respectable old captain.

The reporters and commentators at the media table were surprised, because after the game began, Manchester City firmly grasped the initiative of the game.

This is very different from their analysis before the game. Before the game, the media and some football celebrities were generally optimistic about Inter Milan. The Milan Sport even listed 'seven reasons why Inter Milan will win the championship':

First: Now this Inter Milan is more resilient!

This is also what the Italian media appreciates Inter Milan most.

Compared with the almost boring season in the past, Inter Milan's journey of winning the championship this season is so thrilling that Inter fans shudder. Especially in the sprint stage, seeing the old rivals AC Milan and Juventus fall out of the team in the backyard one after another, but when they were preparing to finish Mingjin, they suddenly killed Roma - even overtook Inter Milan when there were only 5 rounds left in the league! But it is also this twists and turns that reflect the maturity and chaos of this Inter Milan today. They did not panic because of the birth of Rome, but ended perfectly with a wave of five consecutive victories. Rome is not as calm as Inter. Under pressure, it is under pressure to hand over the league champion to the Nerazzurri. Inter Milan's calmness comes from the domination of the Apennine Peninsula in the past three years, but this thrilling victory also gives the Nerazzurri another experience. Look at the statistics, in this troubled season, there is still no difference between Inter Milan and the past: the most wins, the least losses, the most goals, the least conceded, and unbeaten at home... It is so balanced that Inter Milan still makes the league's opponents feel desperate for the fourth consecutive year. Inter Milan has been defeated in the league, and the players are only one Champions League champion now. No one can compare with the hunger for the 'Big Ear Cup'!

Second: Mourinho's Inter Milan injects the resilience of the Champions League! Under Mourinho's creation, Inter Milan's performance in the Champions League is getting better and better, especially after entering the knockout stage, which is more reassuring.

Third: The integration of veteran players led by Sanetti and middle-life players such as Sneed and young players such as Baloteli is very good.

Fourth: Without Ibrahimovic, Inter Milan's attack is more diversified, Diego. Milito and Eto'ao are extremely sharp.

Fifth: The central-back combination of Lucio and Samoel is reassuring.

Sixth: Inter Milan has a background unmatched by Manchester City.

Seventh: It's time for Inter Milan to win the championship.

In a word, Italy is still very confident that Inter Milan will win Manchester City and win the UEFA Champions League in the 2009/2010 season. It is even believed that Inter Milan will win in a relatively dominant way.

It's just that after the game began, the Italians found that the situation of the game was not as good as they thought.

Inter Milan is not well prepared for Manchester City's opening offensive, so now the situation on the court is controlled by Manchester City. The possession of the ball is at the foot of Manchester City, and Inter Milan can only run out. Due to the lack of preparation for Manchester City to attack, they don't even know what to do. Some people want to fight back after solidifying the defense according to the tactics formulated by Mourinho. However, some people also think that Manchester City's overall pressure is bound to have loopholes in the defensive line. This is an opportunity for Inter Milan. They should increase their offensive strength and strive for goals!

If the two sides do not agree, they can't work together on the court. If you can't work together, you will be drilled by your opponent when you have time.

Mourinho's expression was not good, and he also saw that the team's current tactical thinking was chaotic. Mourinho was very angry and had been arranged before the game. Although he did not estimate Manchester City's offensive strength enough, he had already told the players to be patient! Whether it's offensive or defensive, don't panic, be steady!

At this time, Manchester City once again completed an extremely threatening shot.

"Gan Yang! Beautiful pass, Tevez received the ball and shot! Oh, what a pity!"

Cesar held the football firmly in his arms, and then he threw the ball directly to attack without waiting for the Manchester City players to return.

Inter Milan's counterattack speed was very sharp. Eto'o received Sneid's pass, used the speed to break through Richards and Bridge continuously, followed by a shot, crossed the hands of Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart, but hit the post! I missed the goal!

Mourinho saw the shot hit the post and jumped his foot with regret.

However, Inter Milan's counterattack still brightened Mourinho's eyes, and he immediately made a decision.

A chance to kill the ball, Mourinho called team captain Zanedi face-to-face on the side of the dojo.

Sanetti will work harder. Pay more attention to the emptiness after Macon goes up, and Cambiaso will also be more involved in the attack. Mourinho saw the empty space after Manchester City was crushed, and Inter Milan also invested more offensive power to seize the opportunity and score a goal!

At this time, Manchester City is organizing an attack.

Sabareta passed the ball to De Jong, who did not carry the ball, but took the opportunity to push the football to Modric.

Modric turned the football over and then took the ball forward. After attracting Cambiasso's grab, he passed the ball directly to Sabaleta on the side.

Sabaleta made a breakthrough with the ball. After attracting Inter Milan's defensive center of gravity to this side, he suddenly transferred the football direct long pass to the feet of Richards on the other side.

Richards catches the ball and then passes it to the middle.

Elano came up to pick him up. He leaned his back against Sanetti and sped it with his heel. The football continued to roll forward. Then people saw a man rushing up, taking the football and rushing in with the ball.

"Gan Yang! Zhang Yang!" The English commentator roared excitedly, like him, and the Manchester City fans in the stands. Every time they saw Zhang Yang holding the ball, they burst into great cheers.

Seeing Zhang Yang dribbled the ball, Mourinho suddenly stood up from the coach's seat. Zhang Yang was what he was most worried about. Mourinho described his players in this way: As long as Zhang Yang was limited, Manchester City, not to mention winning the Premier League, it would be good to qualify for the League Cup!

From this sentence, it can be seen that Mourinho attaches great importance to publicity!

Samuel has been following Zhang Yang, and he dares not step out easily.

Lucio came up, and he rushed to Zhang Yang. However, the Brazilian's robbery was too fierce. When he changed his direction, he went wrong with Lucio.

"Idiot! How can you be so fierce in the face of Zhang Yang!" Mourinho cursed angrily on the sidelines. Now he can only count on Samoel to stop Zhang Yang.

Samouel saw that Lucio's interception failed. He crossed his heart and accelerated his feet. He was about to get close to Zhang Yang. Because Zhang Yang's front only needs the goalkeeper Cesar and the goal, he doesn't want to foul. If he is in this position, he will play cards. If he is lucky, he will get a yellow card, and he may even get a red card.

Samoel wants to force Zhang Yang to close to him and interfere with Zhang Yang's shot!

However, Zhang Yang did not give Samouel a chance to force himself. He suddenly changed direction again. When Samoel also followed him, Zhang Yang suddenly took a foot shot!

Seeing Zhang Yang swayed his right leg, Samoel knew that it was not good. He fell to the ground decisively and shoveled down!

However, Zhang Yang's shot was faster. Before the spikes of Samoel's sneakers touched the football football, the football had already left the ground and flew!

Samuel's tackle action did not touch the football, but it interfered with the sight of his goalkeeper Cesar!

When waiting for Cesar to see the ball and try to change his direction of movement, it was too late!

The football crossed an arc and crashed into the net!

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL!! We scored! Manchester City scored! Zhang's goal! Great publicity! All-in-no-noise! Great goal! Great captain! At the critical moment, it depends on the captain of Manchester City!! A goal after two people in a row in the finals can't be a classic goal! This is Manchester City's goal in the Champions League final!! This is the moment that belongs to Manchester City! This is a time for publicity! ZHANG!! ZHANG! - One to zero! One to zero! We are Manchester City! Manchester City! Manchester City!" When Zhang Yang played the football in, Manchester's commentator began to comment crazily. After shouting out GOAL, he continued to roar, roared crazily, and almost cried.

This goal is of great significance for both Zhang Yang and Manchester City Club!
