Three Hundred and Fifty First Conquer Italy

The latest website: A week of double matches ended, but Inter Milan did not adjust their status.

After a week of rest, the Nerazzurri challenged Lazio away in the thirty-first round of Serie A.

Mancini once again set up a four-three-one-two three midfielder formation, trying to stabilize his position in the away game.

Lazio, who played at home, also played 4312.

Although the formation is the same, the effect is completely different.

Lazio has Pandev as one, Bianchi and Rocchi as two, and the three midfielders behind are Behrami, Ledesma and Dabo. With Inter Milan, they frequently created threats.

But what is interesting is that in the 11th minute, after a quick counterattack by Inter Milan, Maicon dribbled the ball forward, crossed it to Stankovic, and made a decisive move forward.

Stankovic sent a direct pass. Lazio defender Radu failed to make an offside, allowing Maicon to turn offside. After getting the ball, he went into the right side of the penalty area and crossed to the goal. Crespo easily followed and hit with a left-footed shot. .

Inter Milan took the lead.

Lazio then launched wave after wave of indiscriminate bombing.

Inter Milan was suppressed by the opponent and made a lot of pass errors, but Lazio also failed to seize the opportunity well.

Until the second half, Ledesma sent a long pass in his own half. Rocky was at the front of the penalty area. After stopping the ball in the penalty area with his chest, he chased up and hit a right-footed push to equalize the score for Lazio.

After that, Lazio pursued fiercely and continued to suppress Inter Milan, frequently creating threats.

In the 64th minute, Lazio almost scored again. Behrami's lob shot hit the Inter Milan defender Rivas and changed direction. With one hand, he hit the beam.

In the 83rd minute, Lazio's midfielder Dabo took a long shot and hit the crossbar again.

In the end, Inter Milan drew Lazio 1-1 away by virtue of their defense.

...

Mancini revealed in an interview with the media before the game that Inter Milan has adjusted to the state, he is very familiar with Lazio, and he believes that his team can beat Lazio away.

Can result,

With a score of one to one, he was slapped hard.

Twenty-four to nine shots, fifty-five to forty-five possessions, eleven to one corners, eighty-to-seventy-five passes...

Corriere dello Sport gave a comparison of the game data after the game, and there is another very interesting one, that is, in this game, Inter Milan, when advancing in midfield, after being successfully intercepted by the opponent, the number of times they switched from offense to defense was more. Up to twelve times.

Dubbo broke the ball six times alone.

The Roman said proudly, "If it weren't for this game and Bianchi's stateless performance, it would have been a massacre with a big score!"

The implication is that Inter Milan was very lucky to even get a point.

The goal came from a Lazio defender who made an offside mistake, and the sluggish performance throughout the game made people completely lose confidence in Inter Milan.

Gazzetta dello Sport publicly stated that the Inter Milan championship was not snatched by Naples, but sent out by himself.

Why?

Because recently, "Inter Milan seems to suddenly become completely incapable of playing football!"

Gazzetta dello Sport's doubts are not unreasonable, because the state of Inter Milan in the recent period is indeed too bad.

Just not creative? No pass?

No, Gazzetta dello Sport believes that Mancini's team seriously lacks the backbone.

"At the beginning of the season, Mancini entrusted Ibrahimovic with a heavy responsibility, but at critical moments, especially in the last few rounds, Ibrahimovic's state is very poor."

"In Rome, the Swedish center performed so poorly on the offensive end that it was unbelievable that he was Inter Milan's best star."

"In the first half, Lazio had always had problems with offsides. Except for Maicon's goal, Ibrahimovic got a one-shot, but his shot went directly to the opponent's goalkeeper."

"In the second half, he had another counterattack. At that time, a favorable situation of two-on-one had been formed. He should have given the ball to the unguarded Crespo in time. As a result, he was too sticky to the ball and didn't think about passing it. As a result, , the shot was saved."

"Not to mention that he made no contribution on the offensive end. On the defensive end, he once played with fire at the front of the penalty area. He was too sticky to the ball and tried to pass Dubbo. After the ball was intercepted by Dubbo, he shot a long shot directly and almost broke the goal. .”

Gazzetta dello Sport believes that Inter Milan's malaise is all-round, from the head coach to the players, from the state to the injury.

Sacchi said in his column that since this season, Mancini has not been able to solve a problem well.

That is, the team tends to press too high when attacking, and it tends to retreat too far back when defending.

If the offense is too high, it is easy to cause the opponent to hit directly behind when counterattacking; when the defense is too far back, it is easy to expose the weakness at the front of the penalty area.

"If you have a fast player and a long passer, when you play Inter Milan, you can basically play defensive counterattacks; if you have a player with excellent long-range shooting ability, then you press up and take turns to shoot long-range , can basically score a goal.”

"Unfortunately, Lazio has both!"

Sacchi believes that Inter Milan only conceded one goal and can still keep away from the away game, which is really favored by the goddess of luck. valley

In the end, Sacchi believes that such an Inter Milan cannot catch up with Naples.

The facts are confirming Saki's judgment.

...

A day later, Napoli played at home against Palermo.

As the sixth in Serie A last season, it is currently ranked twelfth this season, but Palermo's strength should not be underestimated.

But at the San Paolo Stadium in Naples, after a week of recharging their energy, the high-spirited team suppressed Palermo from the very beginning, and suppressed the opponent with no temper through high-position pressing.

In the 29th minute, Di Maria took a corner kick, and David Luiz then nodded the ball to the center. Cavani volleyed in the chaos and opened the scoring for Naples.

In the 40th minute, Lichtsteiner made a cross from the right, and Cavani rushed to the front again. When he competed with Palermo defender Barzagli, he grabbed the ball and shot quickly, scoring a brace. Twice, another victory for Naples.

After changing sides to fight again in the second half, Naples frequently created opportunities, but Palermo also almost broke Naples' goal by relying on Amauri.

But in the 70th minute, with a free kick in the frontcourt, David Luiz overwhelmed all opponents and hit a header from close range, extending the score to 3-0!

Only five minutes later, Naples made a quick counterattack from the left, Di Maria sent a direct pass, Cavani deliberately missed, Hamsik inserted behind, scored an angry shot in the penalty area, and scored another goal for Naples, four-to-one zero!

In the end, Naples beat Palermo 4-0 at home!

...

On the one hand, it was a hearty victory, on the other hand, it was an embarrassing tie. Compared with the two, the momentum of Naples is obviously unstoppable, and the gap between Inter Milan's points has further widened, falling behind by a full seven points.

The Italian media have changed their tone one after another, and they all agree that with seven rounds left in the league, it is basically impossible for Inter Milan to catch up with Naples.

Especially considering the recent poor state and performance of Inter Milan.

Inter Milan fans were very dissatisfied with the team's performance and unanimously demanded that Mancini quit get out of class and apologize.

Mancini's attitude is still the same, he will not take the initiative to resign.

And at this point, it is basically impossible for Inter Milan to change coaches.

As analyzed by Gazzetta dello Sport, Inter Milan's first candidate for coach selection is Gao Shen, but under the current situation, how could Gao Shen abandon Naples and choose Inter Milan?

Gao Shen also came forward to clarify that he had no contact with Inter Milan.

"I still have more than one year of contract with Naples. Now, I am still the head coach of Naples, and I will not think about other things."

Gao Shen revealed that he is very grateful to Naples for their trust and support at critical moments. This is the reason why he coached Naples two years ago. Now, he has brought out a strong Naples team. This is what he gave in return.

"But it's not enough!"

Gao Shen promised that he would bring Naples to the championship podium with his own hands.

"Not only the Serie A champions, but also the Coppa Italia!"

Gao Shen's remarks greatly boosted the morale of Naples, and also made Naples fans feel relieved and excited.

Yes, the Coppa Italia has been suspended for several months, but Napoli are in the semi-finals.

Right now, the seven-point lead is enough for Naples to free up their hands and better invest in the Coppa Italia.

Especially the semi-final match against Fiorentina.

Naples officials also came forward, and De Laurentiis publicly criticized those opponents who conspired to poach Naples in the media.

"I know that they can't beat us on the court, so they want to poach our most important people, but I want to tell them, go live your big dreams!"

"Gao Shen is the most important person in Naples, he will not leave Naples, he will stay in the team!"

De Laurentiis said that he had instructed the general manager Marino to do his best to complete the contract extension with the head coach Gao Shen. He even revealed that when he visited Castel Volturno not long ago, Gao Shen had talked with He has outlined a blueprint to compete in the Champions League next season.

"He wants to lead the team to make a difference in the Champions League. I feel his ambition. He will not leave us!"

But the words of De Laurentiis still seem pale and weak.

After all, Naples is not a wealthy family, and they don't have enough financial resources to maintain their current tyrannical competitiveness.

For the same reason, Gao Shen will not stay in Naples forever.

As the No. 1 high blower in Tianzi, Saki said in an interview with the media that he has not discussed this issue with Gao Shen.

"He is now thinking about how to conquer Italy!" Sacchi said cheerfully.

As Gao Shen won recognition, Sacchi's status in Italian football has become more and more respected.

The bet made two years ago is earning him more and more lucrative returns!
