Chapter 588 tough confrontation
At 7:40 pm, Spanish referee Gonzalez called the players from both sides out of the locker room.
When Chelsea players such as Drogba, Terry, Mikel and others came to greet Mourinho.
"Hello Mourinho!"
"Mr. Mourinho! I finally saw you!"
"I will definitely visit your house after the game!"
...
Drogba and others hugged Mourinho tightly, and their closeness was beyond words.
Ancelotti looked at it, with a hint of displeasure in her eyes.
Mourinho couldn't help laughing when he saw Maluda. He knew he had guessed correctly. Ancelotti really sent Maluda to play the left back.
Gao Xiaodong felt at ease when he saw Maluda. Although French international Maluda was strong and his attack on the wing was very sharp, he was not a full-back. Gao Xiaodong believed that his defensive ability was definitely stronger than Maluda, and it should be no problem to break through Maluda who had never played a full-back, not to mention that there was a Zanetti behind him.
Walking out of the mixing channel, Chelsea and Inter Milan players were shocked by the scene in front of them.
Amid the thunderous applause and the shouting, a huge screen slowly descended on the stands on the first, second and third floors north of Meacha. The huge banner was painted with an image of the patron saint of Milan, Ambrogio, a hundred meters high. The giant screen pattern was magnificent and majestic, with awesome momentum, and millions of flash lights were also flashing continuously at this moment.
The fans held colored strips and formed two red cross flags representing Milan City, and then said "Who will dominate Milan City today?" on the blue and black background.
Who doesn't want to be a hero?
Who doesn’t want Qiqi to chant his own name?
Who doesn’t want fans to worship them?
Inter Milan players are excited. The turf they have walked through countless times seems to have become completely different today. The fans' shouts seem to be full of magic, and they are all excited at this moment. Everyone wants to be the master of Milan City and Meacha.
After taking a photo and shook hands, both captains Zanetti and Terry exchanged the team flag and logo, picking the side and serving the ball. Inter Milan players raised their hands to greet the fans in the stands.
At this time, reporters from all over the country pointed the camera at the superstar players of both sides and kept taking pictures, and the commentators began to introduce the lineups of both sides to the fans.
"Inter Milan is a 4-2-3-1 formation today: goalkeeper 1-Toldo; four defenders 13-Micon, 25-Samuel, 6-Lucio, 4-Saneti; double midfielders 19-Cambiaso, 8-Mota; three forwards 20-Sneider, 9-Etoo, 10-Gao Xiaodong; single forward 22-Diego Milito
Chelsea lined up a 4-3-3 formation today: goalkeeper 1-Cech; four defenders 2-Ivanovic, 6-Carvalo, 26-Tree, 15-Maluda; three midfielders: 13-Barak, 12-Micker, 8-Lampard; three forwards 39-Anelka, 11-Drogba, Kalao
There is not much change in Inter Milan today. The commonly used 4231 formations are all on the court. The only thing that makes people worry is that Inter Milan's double midfielders are not strong enough. I wonder if they can block the impact of powerful generals such as Drogba, Lampard, Barack, and Mikel.
Chelsea’s today is actually very different from before. Ancelotti rarely lets Anelka, Drogba and Karau together. It seems that Chelsea is bound to score away goals..."
Before the commentators finished the introduction, the pre-match ceremony ended. Inter Milan picked up the goal close to the North Stand and kicked off first.
Morati was a little nervous in the VIP box, but only Blanca was around him to talk to him to relieve his pressure.
Chelsea boss Abu doesn't like watching football with outsiders. He doesn't sit with Moratti, but instead finds a private room to sit alone.
"Can we win this game?" Morati asked Blanca.
Blanca said cautiously: "Chelsea lacks a left-back, we lack a main goalkeeper, both sides are slack, it depends on the performance on the spot."
Morati sighed: "We have a bad record against Premier League teams, I feel unsure."
Blanca said: "Chairman, don't worry, Mourinho has made good adjustments to the team, not to mention that we have strong players such as Xiao Donggao and Sneijder. It's not certain who will win."
While Morati and Blanca were talking, Spanish referee Gonzalez on the court blew the whistle to start the first half.
Milito and Etoo opened the ball in the middle circle, and the ball was back to Sneider, and Sneider was back to Lucio. At this time, Chelsea's three forwards had already rushed to press.
Lucio passed the ball to Sanetti, who did not hesitate to Gao Xiaodong who was retreating and receiving the ball.
Inter Milan's current thinking is very clear. The positional battle will be passed to Gao Xiaodong, and Gao Xiaodong will be asked to attack Maluda, and the counterattack will be given to Sneider, and Sneider will be given to the forwards.
The opponent is extremely strong, and Inter Milan is playing at home again and will never allow conceding goals. Gao Xiaodong did not push forward after the opening game today, but stayed in his half to meet his teammates.
Gao Xiaodong has retreated to his half. Obviously, Maluda, who plays as a full-back today, will not follow this position. At this time, we will defend Gao Xiaodong is Chelsea's German midfielder Barack, the famous Sanya king.
Barack, who is 1.90 meters tall, is not clumsy. He is tall and strong, and his speed is not slow. The key is that he is good enough to run in two penalty areas. The back midfielder group composed of him, Lampard and Mikel is excellent in attack and defensive ability.
Gao Xiaodong received the ball from the side, and Barack came from behind to press. Gao Xiaodong didn't dare to be careless and passed the ball to Mota, turning around quickly and moving forward.
Mota, who was born in Barcelona, had a good consciousness and passed the ball accurately. When he saw Gao Xiaodong giving him a shot, he turned around and fucked in front, and immediately made two passes and one pass to Gao Xiaodong.
Barack is experienced and knew that when Gao Xiaodong turned around and fucked in front of him, he wanted to play two and one, so he immediately turned around and returned to defense.
Left back Maluda also saw that Gao Xiaodong and Mota were going to cooperate with two and one. He quickly moved forward to prevent Gao Xiaodong from catching the ball and breaking forward.
Gao Xiaodong was fast, and before Barack's body could turn around, Gao Xiaodong was already passing by him like a wind.
But Maluda stepped forward in time. After Gao Xiaodong received the ball, Maluda appeared in front of him. He had no room to dribble the ball. Sneider in the middle was guarded by Mikel, and Barack was chased closely behind. The situation was very serious. If he was not handled well, he would be intercepted and counterattacked.
However, Gao Xiaodong is not a pure wing player. Seeing that the wing is difficult to play, he immediately dribbled the ball and cut across the middle.
Gao Xiaodong shot a long shot, and Maluda didn't dare to let him go, so he quickly followed Gao Xiaodong toward the middle.
Although Gao Xiaodong's mission is a right forward today, Mourinho said that when Gao Xiaodong changes positions, his teammates must assist. When Sneijder sees Gao Xiaodong coming to the middle, he has to run to the side and transfer to Gao Xiaodong.
Sneider's transfer was very beautiful and took Mikel away.
Just as Mikel left the middle, Gao Xiaodong immediately seized the opportunity and passed the ball straight to Milito.
Milito was about to use his three-pronged axe to stop and shoot, but central defender Terry and Milito were very tight. After the ball came, he immediately released a fierce shovel and destroyed the ball from Milito's feet. Milito was also brought to the ground.
There was a burst of applause in the stands. Although the ball did not make a shot, facing Chelsea, the toughest in Europe, hit the opponent's hinterland in the first minute of the game and almost created a shot opportunity. This was very good.
The ball fell at Lampard's feet. Lampard bullied Inter Milan's goalkeeper, and he directly passed it to Inter Milan's penalty area with a long pass to find his striker Drogba.
Warcraft Drogba is Chelsea's center and bridgehead. His role in front is to ferry the ball to his teammates and directly strike the opponent's goal.
Because Drogba is extremely strong and with him in the opponent's penalty area, Chelsea never has to worry about how to transfer the ball through the midfield. He went over with a big foot and found Drogba. Drogba leaned on the defender and passed the ball to his teammates, and he could immediately make a shot.
Chapter completed!
