Chapter 634: Scorpion Swinging Tail
"Goalkeeper: 12-Cessal
Defender: 13-Micon, 6-Lucio, 25-Samuel, 4-Saneti
Middleback: 8-Mota, 19-Cambiaso
Attacking midfielder: 10-Sneider, 9-Etoo, 10-Gao Xiaodong
Forward: 22-d-Milito…”
Inter Milan's famous passionate commentator Reca is shouting the names of every Inter Milan player who appears. Each name drags a long tone, leaving enough cheering time for fans.
Inter Milan reached the Champions League semi-finals for the first time in seven years and tied the Champions League record. It is likely that a new history will be created. Inter Milan fans were extremely excited and excited. After each player's name was shouted, the fans burst into warm cheers. Even players like Mota who are not revealing their feelings received applause like tsunamis.
"...This is the most commonly used 4231 formation in Inter Milan. If there is any change at any point, it is that the two technical models of Mota and Cambiaso are on the back of the midfielder. The defense is a bit weak, but Mourinho has always liked to let the two wingers retreat to defend. That is to say, when defending, Inter Milan has 5 midfielders, and only Milito is in the front..."
After introducing and analyzing Inter Milan's formation, the on-site commentator Reca was about to introduce Barcelona's formation when suddenly there was a riot in the stands, and a group of celebrities were shown on the big screen to arrive at the scene.
"Haha, it turns out that our beautiful big star Martina Stina is here... Hey! There is actually our racer Rossi, who is the loyalist of Inter Milan. All the beautiful and handsome guys are here, and the celebrities of Inter Milan are here... Chairman Morati and Chairman Raburta are also here in advance. They have always liked to start the race, and now they can't wait..."
Reca introduced the guests who watched the game, and then began to introduce the away team Barcelona, "Barcelona is still the 433 formation they are most accustomed to, goalkeeper: 1-Valdes
Defender: 2-Alves, 3-Pique, 5-Puyol, 19-Maxville
Midfielder: 6-Xavi, 16-Butzkers, 15-Keita
Forward: 10-Messi, 9-Ibrahimovic, 17-Pedro
There is not much difference between this lineup and what we guessed before the game. Abidal was placed on the bench, Maxville served as the left-back, Henry's position was replaced by the rising Pedro, and our Milito's brother did not appear in the central defender position, and it was still Puyol. We can guess, Mourinho can definitely guess... But this is useless, because Barcelona's playing style has never changed, but they are still the most powerful team in the world..."
"Now the captains of both sides, Zanetti and Puyol, are exchanging team flags and badges, and the game is about to begin. Let's take a look at the performance of the fans. Now they are all full, and the banners and flags have covered the sky. I even saw the fans standing on the passage, probably the relatives of the staff. This is a historic game. To defeat Barcelona, we can not only reach the Champions League final again in 45 years, but also create a record of winning streak..."
The two sides shook hands and took photos to exchange team flags and emblems to pick the sides. After completing the preparations before the game, the players of both sides came to their own half and stood up to prepare for the game. At this time, all the fans of the court suddenly found that Gao Xiaodong was standing at the front midfielder in the middle, while Sneider stood at the left forward position, and everyone was shocked.
After Sneijder transferred to Inter Milan during the winter break, because he was best at the front midfielder and Gao Xiaodong was an all-round player, Mourinho handed over the front midfielder position to Sneijder. Gao Xiaodong stood in the left and right forward position and was free to move during the game. There were few cases where Sneijder played the front midfielder while Gao Xiaodong played the front midfielder.
"Is this a change of formation? Xiaodong can play at any position, and Sneijder performs averagely in the left forward position. Such a change of formation seems not very scientific? What is Mourinho's gourd selling?"
Not only the live commentator Reca, but also many celebrities, reporters and senior fans were puzzled. They felt that changing the formation like this would weaken Inter Milan's attack power. Mourinho is an extremely smart person. He would never make such a stupid mistake. He must have his intention to do this.
Guardiola, who was standing on the sidelines, knew at a glance the character of his old friend. Looking at his platoon, you can tell that Gao Xiaodong's purpose of playing the front midfielder and Sneijder's left forward was weakened. Although it weakened the attack power, it increased Gao Xiaodong's protection for the midfield and strangled Barcelona's midfield. This is what all Barcelona opponents want to do.
However, Guardiola is not worried. Although Habaibu in the midfield is missing from Iniesta, Messi can also swim to the middle to assist in control and launch a surprise attack. If the opponent wants to curb Barcelona's midfield, Messi's breakthrough will give the opponent a fatal blow.
Gao Xiaodong stood behind the middle circle and kept looking at Barcelona, which was known as the universe team. He was familiar with every player in the team except Ibrahimovic and Maxville. These people were the top of Europe who stepped on his shoulders in the round. He taught Barcelona a lesson in the group stage and defeated them at 2 goals at home, but in the end, Barcelona defeated Inter Milan with the advantage of goal difference to win the first place in the strength group. It can be said that Gao Xiaodong lost to this high-ranking universe team twice. This time, Gao Xiaodong must not lose anymore, and if he loses, he will probably have a demon.
Suddenly, Gao Xiaodong's eyes met Pique. Pique, who was 1.9 meters tall, arrogantly raised four fingers. I don't know if he wanted to say 4:0 in last year's final or 4:0 this time he would play Inter Milan.
Gao Xiaodong waved his fist at Pique without showing any weakness and then looked back. However, when Gao Xiaodong retracted his gaze, he found that Messi was looking at him. Gao Xiaodong glared at Messi fiercely and cut off with his hands, but Messi turned his face contemptuously.
“Beep…”
Two minutes later, referee Benkorenka looked at his watch and blew the whistle in his hand. The first leg of the 0910 Champions League quarter-finals finally kicked off.
The first one to kick off was Barcelona players.
Ibrahimovic and Messi beat the ball back to Xavi behind him. Barcelona's brain Xavi passed the ball to Busquets, and Busquets passed it to the defender. Barcelona began to pour the ball in the backcourt, waiting for Inter Milan to come and grab it.
Inter Milan is waiting for it, and Barcelona is taking a long bus to travel. Today they made up their minds to use a fast pace to drag down Barcelona's physical fitness. Therefore, after the opening, Inter Milan quickly pressed against Barcelona.
Barcelona's ball control ability is truly unparalleled. Under the fierce pressing of Inter Milan's four-man in the frontcourt, Barcelona still passed the ball smoothly in the backcourt, and Inter Milan couldn't even grab it even if they tried hard.
Barcelona passed for nearly a minute, and Inter Milan didn't even touch the ball. At this time, Messi suddenly pulled back from the left to the middle. His unball run attracted all Inter Milan's attention. At this time, Xavi suddenly made a diagonal pass behind Inter Milan's right back Macon. Barcelona left back Maxwell inserted at high speed, rushed behind Macon with lightning speed, and passed the ball to the penalty area to find Ibrahimovic.
This is a cooperation between two former Inter Milan players. Ibrahimovic stands on the small penalty area line and faces the goal. If the ball passes in place, Ibrahimovic, who is 1.9 meters tall, will cause great trouble to Cesar.
The game was in danger just one minute, and Inter Milan in the stands held their breath nervously, but they knew that Da Fengxian was powerful.
However, Maxville's foot feeling was not found at the beginning of the game, and the ball was passed behind Ibrahimovic.
Before Ibrahimovic could turn around, he swung his legs backwards, and a difficult scorpion swung his tail, trying to hook the ball to the goal net.
Scorpion's tail swing is Ibrahimovic's unique skill, and it is difficult to do such difficult movements as others, but Ibrahimovic who has practiced Taekwondo can be used as a regular movement.
Lucio, who defended Ibrahimovic, was very familiar with Ibrahimovic's characteristics. While he was doing the lifting action to barb, he pulled Ibrahimovic with his hands. Ibrahimovic did not touch the hook position under his interference, and the ball flew directly out of the baseline.
"Oh! So dangerous!"
"Lucio is a good one!"
"Go to die Ibrahimovic."
