At 20:40 pm on April 12, Italian time, players from both sides stepped out of the player channel and began a series of pre-match preparations such as lining up.
Ricardo glanced at the stand from time to time.
Despite the economic downturn and attendance at many stadiums has dropped a lot, Milan Derby is still close to full. According to official statistics, at least 81,000 fans will flood into the Meazza Stadium tonight, most of them are Nella.
The North Stand has been occupied by Ronaldo's lieutenant tifo. The world-renowned king of the ball with his forefinger holding his index finger is smiling and celebrating the goal. The figure at the bottom is "King of Meazza", which makes Ricardo envious.
What warms him is that his picture appeared in the stands for the first time today, although it is more than twenty times smaller than Ronaldo's tifo, but after all, it also represents the fans' recognition of him. Under his picture, the words are "Prince of Meazza".
And the singing, of course, is omnipresent, and the "unique Inter Milan" resounds through every corner of the stands.
Rosenelli were not to be outdone, they sang the song of Milan in the south stand:
"Milan, Milan only wants to support you
Milan, Milan is always for you
We walk beside the hero
On green field under blue sky
We won another star
Flashing between us
We sing in unison. "
The singing accompanied the fireworks, lighting up the night sky.
Before the game officially started, the fanaticism of the fans on both sides was fully revealed.
Ricardo walked the program and shook hands with AC Milan's players. When he walked in front of Kaka, Kaka asked with concern: "Stella is okay?"
"much better."
"I'll see her after the game."
"I'm afraid you won't be in that mood." Ricardo smiled.
Kaka raised her eyebrow and smiled handsomely: "We will win."
Ronaldo walking behind Ricardo pushed Ricardo apart, shook his hand with Kaka, and laughed narrowly: "I'm in good shape today. You just say you plan to lose a few goals!"
Kaka spat out her tongue: "Ronnie at your feet."
The vignette passed quickly. AC Milan's lineup today is similar to the previous round, except that Ambrosini replaced Gattuso, who accumulated a yellow card suspension.
After guessing the coin, Inter kick off first.
After a quick break, they kicked back to Cambiasso, and Cambiasso immediately found a long pass to find Ricardo to launch an offensive.
Ricardo removed the ball with a cushion on his chest, gently turned back and passed Kaka, and then drew the ball at high speed along the side. When he nearly hit Kafu, he left the ball and seemed to pass. .
Carford was tricked into moving his center of gravity, and Ricardo swiped over the left foot of the football and quickly recovered the ground. He immediately took the right foot and moved the ball forward. After erasing the old senior Carford, he created an empty moment. Instead of delaying the timing of the dribbling, he went straight to cross to find Ronaldo.
After receiving the ball in the penalty area, Ronaldo smashed the ball and shot his left foot. Stam stretched his leg but blocked it. The football went straight to the corner of the near corner, but because of the outside instep he used to shoot, he took a little arc. The line, when it flew into the net, turned around a bit, hitting the post and hitting the bottom line.
He looked at him for a while with an angrily before shaking his head, unable to believe that he was so lucky.
"Inter Milan launched a very threatening attack and gave AC Milan a kick off!" The narrator saw a wonderful scene before finishing the two players' appearance list.
Ronaldo gave Ricardo a thumbs up, and Ricardo gestured for a beautiful shot in order to applaud.
When running back, passing Kaka, Kaka said quietly, "You are in a good state today"
"You don't need to be in good shape to pass, you just need to use your eyes to defend." Ricardo joked.
"Next time I will use foul tactics." Kaka laughed.
"Just come, let me see my free kick effort." Ricardo hit back.
Kaka didn't joke, and in the following games, he began to use foul tactics frequently. Not only him, the entire AC Milan team began to use foul tactics from the midfield, using some less intense and not so easy to eat cards to destroy Inter Milan's offense, making Inter Milan's offensive extremely stagnation, unable to advance smoothly .
Anxious to score goals, Inter Milan encountered such obstacles, the players became impatient, and also used fouls to deal with.
The German referee Merck did not relent. In just 10 minutes of the opening, both sides received two yellow cards. Cordoba, Adriano, Ambrosini and Seedorf all carried topaz cards.
In the 15th minute, the total number of fouls on both sides reached 14 and there was a foul almost every minute. This is not good for Inter Milan. Too many game interruptions waste their time and make it difficult for them to organize a smooth attack.
"Ancelotti's foul tactics worked," the commentator said. "Inter Milan can't make a smooth attack except for the attack that just started. And AC Milan's foul tactics are very particular. Foul and Inter don't get a free kick in a good position. "
Mancini looked a little anxious, but couldn't help it.
Foul tactics are a kind of tactics that use rules reasonably. Although abominable and ridiculous, in the age of utilitarianism, people can't say much.
The foul tactic is often used by the leading side; or by the weaker side, the purpose is to disrupt the offensive rhythm of the strong team and force a draw.
Adriano's comeback did increase the impact of Inter's striker, but after all, Adriano was unfamiliar with the position of the right winger When he was most powerful, he was still in the middle.
And he played alone and never sent any good shots to Ronaldo.
After Ricardo flashed at the opening, he was also caught in Carford's mark. Although the experienced Cafu's physical quality has declined, the experience has made up for the physical deficiency, and Ricardo can hardly do anything under his care.
In addition to confronting Inter Milan's midfield, Ambrosini and Seedorf often assisted the full-back defense to prevent Ricardo and Adriano's breakthrough.
The game went into a stalemate for a while. Both teams are trying to control the midfield, but both failed. Anxious to attack, Inter Milan could not find effective offensive methods. Facing AC Milan 's strict defense, Inter Milan could not open the middle or form an effective breakthrough on the side. Mancini was embarrassed outside the court and kept on Pacing back and forth, thinking about strategy.
As long as one goal, one goal, can let Inter Milan beat the opponent, and use the advantage of away goals to eliminate AC Milan.
But apart from Ronaldo's opening attempt, Inter Milan did not threaten Dida's gate.
