Chapter 428 vs. Little Zebra

Founded in 1896, Udinese is the oldest club in the Serie A team. In the early stage, it has been hovering at the bottom, and promotion is their main task. In the 1990s, after the Pozzo family became the owner, Udinese's performance gradually improved, repeatedly entering the European arena, but unfortunately There is no championship trophy for a major event in the team's honor room.

The reason why Udinese can't win the championship is related to their business ideas. They are following a wide range of goods and selling at a high price. This is the business path developed by Pozzo after he went to England to get Manchester United and Arsenal. It is called the "Udinese pattern".

The Udinese model is similar to Arsenal's philosophy. They chose to make good use of young head coaches and recruited a wide range of young players who wanted to use Udinese to join the big team to train them into stars to earn transfer fees.

Serie A is not the Dutch Serie A. Of course, this model of being satisfied with star processing factories cannot win the championship in a competition like Serie A, but a mid-stream team like Udinese is not easy to deal with. Although they are the team with the most foreign aid in Serie A, they have gathered 26 foreign aid from 14 countries, and they are not immature. Stable, but young players are determined to get good results and marry into a rich family, so once the rich family is in a bad state, they can turn you upside down, known as a "giant killer".

Udinese coach de Canio is an Italian and a rare native of Udinese. He started his coaching career from an amateur team in the 1988-89 season. Last season, he coached Udinese for the first time he coached a Serie A team, but his record was not bad. He led the team to the eighth place in the league. His teaching ability has been recognized by the Pozzo family, and he is regarded as the best among the new generation of coaches in Italian football. De Canio has a distinctive coaching style and is good at playing 3-4-1-2 offensive football.

However, when he challenged Inter Milan away from home, De Canio made it clear that he would adopt more practical tactics instead of taking the risky fight against Inter Milan.

Jiang Mu must not be happy to hear Decanio's words, because Udinese has the strength to attack. J. Gensen, Pierre, Pizarro, Muzi and Sosa are all extraordinary, but they fight back in a low profile, which is a severe test for the defensive line of Inter Milan.

The game was held on the 26th. In the two games that just ended before, Roma defeated Vicenza 2:0 away, and Parma beat Perugia 5-0, which put a lot of pressure on Inter Milan. If they can't win this game against Udinese, the score will be approached by Parma, and the front will be followed by Roma. Regardless, Jiang Mu's goal of winning the championship is likely to be unattainable in the end. For Inter Milan, which is a pursuer, you can't make any mistakes now.

On the day of the game, the Meacha Stadium continued to maintain a very high attendance rate. More than 70,000 fans came to the scene. They came to the stadium early and waited for the start of the game.

Commentator Scapini also carefully prepared all kinds of materials for the hot field. Before the start of the game, fans who don't know much about Inter Milan and Udinese can also have an objective understanding of the game.

At 6:30 p.m., the players of Inter Milan and Udinese came out of the locker room, and there was a warm cheer at the scene.

Scarpini began to use the last time before the game to introduce the starting lineup of both sides.

"... In the first round of the match between the two sides, Inter Milan lost 0:3 away... Inter Milan's starting lineup is: Frey/Zanetti, Materazzi, Ferrari, Cordoba/Farinos, Brochi, Pirlo, Sidov/Vieri, Recoba

Blanco, Dibianio, Simic and other players who played the League Cup are rotated, but this lineup still has strong attack power and the defense is not bad. In the face of Udinese, it should be said that there is a great hope of winning.

Udinese's starting lineup is like this: goalkeeper Tursi; three defenders: Sotil, Gago, Cabarero; five midfielders: Jogensen, Pizzi, Pieri, Pizarro, Martinez, and two forwards: Muzi and Sousa.

Recently, the "little zebra" has been plagued by serious injuries. In the last five games, they have won two or lost three games, and the ranking has fallen directly. They must wake up their twelve-point spirit to seize the hope of the European game.

Although the striker Ian Quetta has not recovered from his injury, the veteran Sosa is also strong. Betoto is injured, but Pizarro is full of firepower. Their attack is not a problem. Their biggest problem is their back line. Due to the injury, the team's three more experienced defenders appeared on the field, but the defense line There are still loopholes in the loopholes. Tursi's performance this season can only be regarded as average, and although Gago and Cabalero are in good health, it is a pity that both of them are a little different and unable to form a defensive protection; the midfielder Elgra is suspended, and Pierre did not play well in this position.

Our team has achieved eight consecutive victories in the last eight rounds, chased five points forward, and ensured its lead in European points backwards. It made a miraculous reversal in the UEFA Cup, and successfully advanced to the quarterfinals, which made the team's morale reach the peak. After Jiang Mu's arrival, Inter Milan has Become a feared Legion of Warcraft..."

"...Good! The game has begun. Let's turn our eyes to the court. What we just said is on paper. Now let's look at the performance of both sides in the game..."

Although they know that the opponent's attack power is good, they have recently won a series of victories in the home game, including a super reversal after three goals behind, which makes the players of Inter Milan very confident. After the game began, they attacked under the city and launched a fierce attack around Udinese, hoping to score quickly. , break the deadlock and break the defensive counterattack of Udinese.

Jiang Mu is well prepared for this game. According to the characteristics of too many mercenaries and tacit cooperation between players, Inter Milan has strengthened the struggle and separated the three delicate players, Pizarro, Pizzi and Jogensen, in the midfield, to prevent them from contacting each other or making them effective with the front line. Cooperate. The opponent's name is called three-back, which is actually equivalent to the play of five-back. Inter Milan did not take it for granted to play two sides, but tried to make use of the characteristics of the opponent's tacit cooperation and quickly pass and cut, causing the opponent's mistakes.

In the third minute of the game, Inter Milan's attack tore open the opponent's defense. Pirlo passed the ball to the front court, and Sedorf, Vieri and Recoba played a delicate cooperation. Finally, Vieri made a lay-down shot in the penalty area, but the ball hit a little straight and was saved by goalkeeper Tulsi.

Pirlo came to the front court to kick the corner, and the ball drew a beautiful arc to find Materazzi. With the advantage of height, Materazzi pushed the ball into Udinese's goal.

1:0

Inter Milan took the lead.

The fans in the stands rejoiced, and the applause poured down like a rainstorm. They thought that a hearty massacre had begun again. Although Serie A fans were used to the team's economic way of 1:0 and 2:1, they could even accept 1:1 and 2:2. Draw, but no matter how conservative the fans are, they will definitely like the game with more goals. This is nature, not the characteristic of Italian fans.

After being first scored by Inter Milan, the players of Decanio and Udinese were a little frustrated. The three defenders were not very friendly and exchanged their views on the goal loss. Cabalero reacted fiercely to his partner's criticism.

Commentator Scapini joked: "Udinese's defensive counterattack tactics were broken in the first three minutes. It seems to be another massacre, but Udinese can't complain about others. He can only blame their jerseys for being too close to Juventus. Inter Milan is the most exciting to play Juventus. Seeing Udinese, I guess it is Let's fight as Juventus."

Although the deadlock was broken and the score took the lead, Inter Milan did not break Udinese's defensive counterattack tactics, and may also be psychologically prepared. Udinese did not fight back because of losing the ball. They actually swallowed their anger and continued their defensive counterattack, as if Inter Milan did not score. The ball is the same.

If Inter Milan also does not take the initiative to attack at this time, then Udinese's defensive counterattack will not be able to fight, because the passage of time is Inter Milan's weapon, but Inter Milan's first eight victories in the home game are so hearty, defeating their opponents with 3 goals in the first round. Inter Milan has no reason not to continue the attack.

The opponent gave up control over the midfield. Inter Milan can give full play to their offensive cooperation and characteristics. The midfield and frontcourt continue to make all kinds of clever cooperation, to the fierce long-range shooting and punching, the exquisite heel and wall two-to-one and two-to-two cooperation, and the arc tricky free kicks are all right. Udinese's goal brought a great threat, but after losing the first goal, Udinese seemed to be transported. Inter Milan's attack was excellent, and the shot was decisive, but it was always a little short of the second goal, either the post, or wiping the post, or by the opponent. Magical block and save.

Inter Milan's fans are anxious. If it hadn't been for the bottom of a goal, they would have shouted long ago, and the fans of Udinese were about to see the heart attack. Every shot of Inter Milan made them raise their hearts to their throats, and then fell down again, so many times, but the score But it is always 1:0 without any change.

Jiang Mu frowned secretly on the sidelines. This is not a good thing, because the bottom of the situation is that he often loses points, but he has no good way. He is the head coach, not God. He can tell the players how to attack, but he can't tell the players how to shoot. There is no mistake in tactics. In this case, the game was only played for more than ten minutes, and Jiang Mu could not be replaced. He could only watch the players play freely on the court.
