Chapter 152
Before suspicions of infighting disappeared, Inter Milan welcomed a new opponent, Bundesliga Leverkusen. After winning the championship runner-up, the German Cup runner-up and the European runner-up "King of Sanya", they entered a period of languor.
As a small club, they were not only poached one after another but also faced a dilemma when the two sides had to compete with high intensity, so they continuously lost in the national championship and fell into the lower group. class.
In the National Championship, Leverkusen's main goal is of course to stay relegated and there is still hope in the second half of the match.
But they have no intention of giving up the Champions League. Unable to achieve any results in the national championship, they focused on the European arena.
In the first round against Barcelona, Leverkusen almost drew but fell behind at the last minute and lost 1:2. If they want to qualify, they must win this match against Inter Milan.
.....
Meazza Stadium was almost full. Although fans witnessed Inter Milan's defeat and some unfortunate conflicts a few days ago, no one understands better than them that this team needs fans more than ever. Your joy and support.
After the referee's whistle, the two teams officially started the match. As expected, Leverkusen turned away from the guest. They took advantage of continuous movement and fierce pressure on the field to take the initiative in the match. "Look at this attack, Noinville used the ball to eliminate Cannavaro and score the goal! Oh, what a pity, the ball went wide of the post. This was Leverkusen's third shot in this match, and the Milan international still Haven't taken any shots yet." attacked effectively and it seemed like the home team was at a disadvantage.
"Is Inter Milan's defense still not recovering? This match Cooper put the controversial Cordoba on the bench, but looking at it now, the effect is not great. Cannavaro's performance is like sleepwalking."
At minute 15, Leverkusen's attack was effective. Schneider broke through from the left wing and made the pass. Berbatov followed suit and beat Cannavaro to head the ball wide of the goal.
Just 4 minutes later, Cannavaro had to retreat to defense again and Noyinville single-handedly created the opening goal for the away team.
The fans in the stands were stunned. Is this still the same Inter Milan that won the double crown last season and won nine straight at the start of the championship?
"Wang Feng! Wang Feng!" I don't know who was the first person to shout Vuong Phong's name. The people next to him also followed after hearing it. Little by little, the whole of San Siro echoed with this voice.
"Inter Milan fans are calling for their heroes!" Commentators at the scene shouted loudly: "Vuong Phong has many times performed miracles at Meazza Stadium. Can he continue his legend today?
Nearly 70,000 people shouted one name in unison, the atmosphere was majestic! Vuong Phong raised his head and looked at the dense crowd. The worry and insecurity about the team had completely disappeared, the only thing left was fighting!
In the 35th minute, Wang Feng dropped into midfield to respond. After recovering the ball, Leverkusen defender Lamelo rushed to collect it. He even put his hand on Vuong Phong's shoulder, then continued to catch the ball with his foot. I want to steal it.
Relying on his physical strength, Vuong Phong resolutely resisted him, at the same time turning the corner to avoid his pressure, keeping the ball at his feet. Then, he suddenly exerted his power, broke free of LaMelo's shackles, and quickly moved forward. escape.
Another midfielder nearby, Baliqi, was surprised and immediately fell to the ground and shoveled. Even if he made a mistake, he would never let Vuong Phong have a chance to dribble the ball forward. It would be too dangerous.
When Vuong Phong dribbled the ball at high speed, the force of his left foot was a little heavier, causing the ball to deviate to the left, so he avoided the tackle at the critical moment and went all the way to the end of the face. repair.
Facing the last defender in front of Nowotny, he first faked a shot to make the opponent lose balance, then prepared to shoot on goal. Unexpectedly, Nowotny relied on his incredible reaction speed and body. Coordination suddenly adjusted. The moment Vuong Phong raised his foot and exerted force, he felt that the ball was definitely about to hit the opponent, so he forcibly withdrew his force before his toes touched the ball, and at the same time changed his hitting position. At that time, Nowotny was helpless.
After defeating Nowotny, Wang Feng formed a single sword and pierced the Leverkusen Gate with a powerful blow.
"Goal scored! gooooooooooooooooo! Great job Vuong Phong!"
"He answered the call of the home team's fans! Miracles happened again at Meazza Stadium! Wang Feng caught the ball in the middle of the field and penetrated the opponent's goal after passing it straight to three people. It's amazing!"
"A goal like this is a big blow to the away team's morale, because they don't know how to defend themselves to stop the aggressive Wang Feng."
"Watch the replay again. It's beautiful. Wang Feng's high-speed dribble changed direction and the ball showed no signs of losing control. This level of ball control is certainly among the highest in the world. »
After scoring, Vuong Phong walked towards Leverkusen's goal, collected the ball and ran towards the middle of the field. He continued to greet the players midway and finally placed the ball on the service point, calling on everyone to stand in their seats and wait for the ball to be served. UU read www. uukanshu.com
Cannavaro also approached him at this time, looking at him with an embarrassed expression, while Vuong Phong came forward to hug him, smiling and saying: "Cheer up, captain Italy." Canna Valo couldn't help but smile and nodded solemnly.
In the following matches, no team scored more goals. Inter Milan entered the break behind one goal, but they no longer felt discouraged. Vuong Phong's goal not only touched the opponent's spirit but also caused his team to recover.
The state of Cannavaro has indeed been affected by the conflict on the ground. The conflict between him and Cordoba mainly focused on two points. The first is that the roles in the court are somewhat overlapping.
Both are small guards, and Cooper tends to go "big with small", which is using a big guard with a small guard, so they can complement each other on the defensive line, so even if they sometimes play the same. time, big Most of the time is a competitive relationship.
Another point of contradiction is that the salary gap between Cannavaro and Cordoba is too large. A mainstay in the Inter Milan defense, the Colombian believed his salary would be similar to Cannavaro's, but the reality is that he is being lured away. He slapped him in the face, so once the Italian captain made a mistake, Cordoba inevitably wanted to mock him, causing conflict between the two sides.
Cooper rubbed his eyebrows before explaining the second round's strategy. At that time, he was happy to have bought Zambrotta this summer. Initially, it was about the depth of defensive formations in multi-line battles. important role. "Fabio, take a break midway through the second half and let Córdoba combine with Zambrotta." Cooper said, Cannavaro's face looked a bit ugly but he still nodded. In the final moments of the first half, he finally regained his senses, but his previous performance had been poor.
