Chapter 425 Bold Replacement
Alaves' players only saw the dawn of victory, only saw one less opponent, only saw themselves oppressing the front court, and the giant Inter Milan could only retreat to the half, but did not realize the danger they faced.
In the 30th minute of the game, Inter Milan, which was compressed to the front of the penalty area, suddenly broke out, like a spring compressed to the limit. The tighter it is pressed, the greater the power to pop out.
Pirlo received a header from Materazzi. He was not in a hurry to relieve the siege in the crowd, but boldly picked Alonso and handed the header to Sidov not far away.
Pirlo's adventurous behavior won Sidoff the time to pass the ball. The later old demon in the football world is now also a cunning man. His vision is very wide, and he instantly found a passage to pass the ball to Vieri in the crowd.
He parked the ball in front of him, and the instep of his foot twitched vigorously. The ball bypassed the defender running in front of him, and also bypassed the defender on the left side of Vieri, and flew to the route where Vieri ran.
Vieri is the only person in the half of Alaves. He is now given the order not to defend by Jiang Mu, because Inter Milan is now one less and cannot effectively send the ball to the front court in the opponent's encirclement, so a player must be left in front to fight back.
Jiang Mu is very flexible in dealing with different situations and dares to deny his previous decisions at any time, as long as it is conducive to the team's victory.
Vieri doesn't need to defend. All his thoughts are on attack. Naturally, he will observe the movements of his opponents and teammates anytime and anywhere. When Pirlo catches the ball, Vieri has begun to run. He thought Pirlo would drive behind the defender, but he didn't expect Pirlo to kick off directly, but gave it to him. Sedorf near the side road.
However, Sedorf's pass was more threatening. The ball actually bypassed the left defensive player Kamona and flew diagonally.
The ball that flies directly forward from the backcourt is easy to be directly obtained by the opponent's goalkeeper, but a pass like Sedorf makes the goalkeeper dare not attack, because the ball does not fly to the goal, but to the other side.
Without the intervention of the goalkeeper to take the ball and relieve the siege, Vieri took the absolute initiative. He plugged in at high speed, jumped up and intercepted the ball flying obliquely with his foot.
After the ball is blocked when flying, it immediately runs from parallel to the direction of the goal to perpendicular to the goal.
Vieri jumped up and stopped the ball. Although his body was still rushing forward, the speed slowed down, and Alaves' central defender Torres had rushed over.
Therese tried to grab the header in front of Vieri to his goalkeeper. In this crisis, this is also the right thing to do, which is safer than frontal defense.
But Tries forgot Vieri's strong body. At the moment when the bodies of the two people were parallel, Vieri hit Tries on the shoulder fiercely. The tonnage of Tries could not be compared with Vieri. He could have surpassed Vieri, but by Vieri's collision, although he also went forward according to inertia and surpassed Wei. Eric, but it's farther away from the ball.
After Vieri hit Torres, he strode to catch up with the ball. Seeing that the goalkeeper Herrera was still retreating, he did not hesitate to raise his foot and shoot at the goal.
"...beautiful! THIS IS A SMART SHOT. IF YOU CONTINUE TO dribble THE BALL, TALÉS AND CALONA WILL CUE, BUT INTER MILAN CAN'T HELP UELIE, LIE, LIE HAS MADE THE RIGHT CHOICE... GOALGOAL... SCORED! Vieri! Inter Milan equalized the score... 2:2... Inter Milan led by one goal in total! Alaves must score two goals if he wants to advance, no! Maybe it will take three goals, because Inter Milan will also score goals..."
Scapini took the lead in shouting, and then his voice was drowned out by the applause of more than 80,000 Nerazuri.
The whole Meacha has become a sea of joy. Vieri's goal is too critical. When the team is in danger, the ball greatly improves the morale of the players and fans.
Jiang Mu walked to the North Stand and stood with Caravita, the leader of the Holy Boy Organization. Surrounded by the irons, he held an Inter Milan team flag in his hand. Like ordinary fans, he raised his arms and cheered and sang the team song.
Jiang Mu's arrival at the fan stands greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of the fans. The applause lasted for a long time, and the waves of people did it again and again. When the game had started again, ** was still continuing.
Holding the advantage of two hemispheres, the Inter Milan players are completely in a peaceful mood. They are no longer nervous for one less person. They defend the half-court and let the opponent attack. Maybe the opponent will break through their goal, but they also have the opportunity to break through Alaves' goal. Vieri has confirmed his attack in front. Strike power, if you don't send two people to keep an eye on him, Super Bobo may break through the gate guarded by Herrera again at any time.
Mane, the head coach of Alaves, had a grim expression. As soon as he saw a little hope, Vieri broke this hope, which made Mane very angry, but he had no choice. As long as they pressed it with all their strength, he would definitely give the opponent this opportunity. But the key now is not that the opponent can score, but that Alaves must score.
"Replacement!"
Mane made a bold decision at this time. The opponent played one less. There was only one striker Vieri in the front, and it was a waste of resources to have four defenders behind him. Although the four defenders have a certain ability to assist, after all, it is very different from the main business of attacking midfielders and forwards.
Mane called up the striker Ascoitia on the bench and asked him to replace the next defender Geely. He should play three defenders in the backcourt, and the formation changed to 532.
Mane's transformation is not on a whim. In La Liga, Mane often switches the formation between 442 and 352. In the first half, Alaves played 442, allowing Cruyff Jr. and Moreno to play forwards. The combination of Moreno and Cruyff Jr. was gradually recognized by others, and Alaves was defeated in a row. At this time, Mane decisively used the combination of Alonso and Moreno, and Cruyff Jr. returned to the position of the front waist. Mane also gave up the tactic of four defenders and took three defenders to shrink the middle defense.
Relying on the impact of the midfield on the side to increase the attack points, thus opening the gap of the midfield attack, so that little Cruyff can better grasp the rhythm of the game. The tactical adjustment quickly restored Alaves' vitality, and the league results advanced by leaps and bounds to the top 16 of the UEFA Cup.
Mane's adjustment makes Alaves' interception and attack in the midfield more thicker. Inter Milan is best at the counterattack in the middle. Siedov and Pirlo are not side players, and the opponent's increasing manpower in the middle is the key to Inter Milan, making the international It is difficult for Milan's counterattack to make a threat again.
Alaves firmly controlled the game in four or five minutes after the substitution. Because of the worry-free back, their offensive quality has been greatly improved, and they have obtained good opportunities in front of the door in a row.
In the 35th minute of the game, Moreno's header slipped out.
In the 37th minute, the substitute striker Askoitiya received a pass from Yugoslav midfielder Tomić. A cold shot from outside the penalty area almost broke through Frey's ten fingers. Fortunately, he was tackled by Materazzi on the goal line.
After 30 seconds, the corner kick from Cruyff Jr. turned directly to the back corner of the goal. Frey had handed over the gun, but the ball hit the crossbar and bounced out.
After Jiang Mu was sent to the stands, the speed of on-the-spot reaction decreased a lot. When Jiang Mu observed the situation and made a decision, he sent a note to Baresi. At Baresi made the players enthusiastic about playing, it would take at least five minutes to delay.
But fortunately, Inter Milan's players were united, and with a little luck, they did not let Alaves break the goal.
Five minutes later, Inter Milan also made a substitution adjustment in response to the changes in Alaves. The midfielder Sedorf was replaced and striker Robi Keane came on the field.
Jiang Mu's substitution shocked everyone, because now although Inter Milan is playing at home, they have one less player. Even if their strength is stronger than their opponents, the gap between a person cannot be completely made up by the strength of the star, which means that every player has to defend a bigger gap. In the meantime, there is a reduction of a ball point in the attack.
At this time, Jiang Mu changed to the striker and the next midfielder, which was an extremely bold decision.
Commentator Scarpini said: "If you don't know that Jiang Mu is directing the game with a small note, I think most people will think this is a confused decision made by Baresi. In the case of one less person leading by one goal and a half, such a choice cannot be described as boldly. This should be a sign of absolute self-confidence, Jiang Mu At this time, it is obvious that they can score goals with their opponents... Well, we don't analyze it. If we can analyze the progress of the game and Jiang Mu's psychology, Jiang Mu can't be called a magical coach. Anyway, the striker will always make the game better. We are still good. Let's enjoy the game. Maybe this is another big game.
After Robi Keane came on the field, he explained to Vieri, and then the two took turns to defend, but there was at least one player in the front, which formed a deterrent to Alaves's back line and prevented the defenders from coming forward to assist. For the teammates behind, the current defensive pressure is already very heavy, if the opponent's defender suddenly plugs in. On, there may be leaks, and then the defense line is in chaos.
After the game was replaced by the two sides, there were only a little more than five minutes left. In order to score, the rhythm became faster. The two sides came and went. In a blink of an eye, the ball hit the penalty area from this side to the other side of the penalty area, which made the whole fans nervous and looked at the ball without blinking.
The first half of the stoppage time is one minute. Generally, when it reaches the first half stoppage time, both sides will converge, because there is still enough time in the second half, but the two teams are racing against time and not relaxed at all. When Alaves gets the last corner, even goalkeeper Helei Ladu rushed to Inter Milan's penalty area and was ready to fight for the last opportunity to attack.
