Chapter 435: The Attack Is Blocked

****

"Zlatan ......"

When Mancini talks about attacking, the first person he mentions is naturally Ibrahimovic.

So everyone focused on the big man in the team, and then Mancini said with a stern expression, "Your task in this game is to do everything you can to help the team score as you said in your interview with reporters before the game!" And also... Try to score as many goals as you can!! ”

Hearing this, Ibrahimovic was in a hurry, and immediately patted his chest in fear, and said to his teammates, "Give me the ball as long as you have the opportunity in this game, and I will definitely score a goal!" ”

Subsequently, Mancini told the defenders again, and asked them to be neat when defending Elo, and foul those who should be fouled, otherwise it will not be good to delay the fighter and let Valencia get a valuable away goal.

Ibrahimovic, who was still in high spirits just now, was upset when he heard Mancini's words, which clearly showed that he didn't believe in his ability to score goals! I subconsciously began to complain about Mancini's timidity...

Of course, Materazzi is also constantly slandering Mancini, the timid manager...

It wasn't until the assistant referee told them to go to the players' tunnel that Mancini stopped telling him like a long-tongued woman.

At the same time, the team members breathed a sigh of relief, and it was finally over......

Finally, before walking out of the dressing room, captain Zanetti clapped his hands vigorously and shouted at his teammates, "Remember that this game is played in our stadium, in Meazza!" We are kings!! Don't be afraid of any opponents!! ”

Materazzi, who had been holding back for a long time, finally found a catharsis point, and then said loudly: "Don't worry, captain, I will definitely give him a little color to see, so that he knows whose home stadium is this stadium!" ”

Although Mancini heard Materazzi's meaning, he did not reprimand him because of the latter's face, so he had to pray in his heart: Don't be impulsive!

Away team locker room

Flores' request for this game is very simple, that is, to finish the game according to his own style, to avoid conceding goals and to get away goals as much as possible, "Although we are away from home, let's not forget our own style of play! Inter Milan are currently the top scorers in Serie A, but we are the top scorers in Europe this season...... So in this game we have to try to minimize the opposition attacking players facing our defenders directly...... Focus more on the offensive end and put pressure on the opponent..."

The other requirements didn't say much, he was a smart guy who knew what to say and what not to say.

This team is arguably the strongest Valencia has ever had in the game, with the attacking combination of Elo, David Villa and David Silva being the most goalscoring attacking duo in Europe at the moment, so it goes without saying that it is inclined.

The configuration of the midfield can be said to be very luxurious, the trio of Balak, Albelda and Baraja, after the run-in of the first half of the season, while ensuring the hardness of the midfield, also makes the division of labor of the three more clear, and the combat effectiveness is stronger!

It's just a little weaker at the back, with the 34-year-old Ayala partnering 21-year-old Albiol always feeling so unreassuring, but fortunately, the two full-backs are okay, Del Horno and Moretti.

Time passed quickly, and before Flores could finish speaking, the assistant referee came to inform him that it was time to play.

Before walking out of the locker room, the new captain Albelda clapped his palms vigorously, inciting the feelings of his teammates, "Although we are away, we must be the ones who win!" ”

"Victory!"

Many team members shouted in unison.

……

Ilo walked out of the away dressing room with his teammates and saw his teammates Ayala and Inter Milan's national team teammates Zanetti, Cambiasso, Burdisso, and Crespo hugging each other.

He didn't have anyone in the opponent's team except for Figo, who was more familiar, so he only said hello to Figo and lowered his head to straighten the belt of his pants.

Just as he was tying up his trousers and looking straight ahead, he suddenly felt someone staring at him from behind him, like a knife, which made him very uncomfortable, so he turned his head to look behind the right side.

He found the master, and it was Materazzi.

Faced with Materazzi's malicious eyes, Iroh had no choice but to make a senseless gesture of shrugging his shoulders and spreading his hands.

But this action is something else to be seen by Materazzi, to ignore, to be naked-naked!

At this moment, the theme song of the Champions League "Champions League" sounded, so Materazzi had to put back his angry eyes and follow his teammates in front of him into the field.

***

The players of both sides of the game slowly walked out of the players' tunnel under the background music of the Champions League theme song "Champions League", and then lined up in a line, with four referees standing between the two teams.

In the middle circle of the stadium, a large group of UEFA volunteers held the Champions League logo sheets and kept shaking, telling the fans watching the live broadcast that this is the top league in Europe - the UEFA Champions League.

The home fans of the stadium in Meazza lit blue and red flares all around the stadium, much to the dismay of the away fans near the roof of the stadium because of the ...... The smoke was directed at them.

"As the top league in Europe, the UEFA Champions League, I really don't know why it is checked when it goes through the security check, and I don't know how they brought in so many fireworks and flares......

Hyde sat in the studio with a very good view, and just saw that the smoke from the flares ignited at the scene was aimed at the two stands of Valencia fans, and subconsciously blurted out.

In fact, many people have become accustomed to this fan-assisted game model in Serie A.

It's like the singing of the Premier League and the momentum of the Bundesliga, and the characteristics of the Serie A team are signal flares.

Soon, the theme song of the Champions League was played, followed by the team song "Valencia Hymn" of Valencia, which was playing away.

Iroh raised his chin slightly, glanced at the smoke in the stands in disgust, and then withdrew his gaze, to be honest, he hated the atmosphere of Serie A, and if he was slightly unsatisfactory, he would dismantle the seats, throw flares, and ignite flammable materials......

The fans in the stands also booed high and low as the camera switched to the Meazza stadium, and when the camera switched to Iroh, the boos of the entire stadium reached the highest decibel level since the opening.

Iroh pouted and booed as much as he could!!

……

After the team anthem of the two sides was played, it was a handshake between the two sides, and Valencia, as an away player, should naturally take the initiative to walk over and shake hands with the home team players to show respect for the home team.

Materazzi's eyes flickered, and a clever plan suddenly came to his mind, he knew how to give Ielo a dismount at the Meazza Stadium.

But when Iroh came to him, he was stunned......

Because Materazzi was already ready to shake hands with Iroh when he made a violent force, but what he didn't expect was that Iro's right hand just touched him and left... Opened ......

This... I don't follow the script at all!!

Materazzi's lungs are about to explode, and if he was naked-naked in the players' tunnel, then his current behavior is completely despised by him.

If the eyes could kill people, then Iroh had already been whipped n times.

However, if Materazzi knew what Iroh really thought in his heart, I wonder if he would kill himself directly?

It wasn't until Ballack coughed in embarrassment that Materazzi came back to his senses and shook hands with the captain of the German national team, otherwise there was a high probability that there would be a similar news in the media the next day.

****

Naturally, they lost the tee shot when Albelda and Zanetti picked the edge.

As the referee's whistle blew, the home team Inter Milan took advantage of the kick-off and took the lead in attacking Valencia's goal, with a preemptive attitude.

The ball was passed to Stankovic two or three times before he kicked the ball away before David Villa.

This is the usual way of playing for the team that kicks off first in every game, so no one finds it strange.

In fact, there is a reason why Stankovic kicks the ball forward in the arc of his own side, because their center forward is Ibrahimovic, who is tall, strong and very flexible with his feet, as in the current situation, he can also do accurate header ferrying, control the ball at the feet of his own player.

However, the final attack ended with Figo's long-range shot flying over the crossbar.

After the Inter Milan players finished the attack, they quickly recovered, especially the back three Cambiasso and Stankovic, basically making up for the two rib gaps between the two full-backs and central defenders.

It seems that this is a precautionary measure of Valencia's usual style of play.

Because Ailo and David Silva are both fast, top-notch attacking players, and the dominant foot and kick position are opposite, there is a lot of space to take advantage of when cutting inside, and the recovery of Stankovic and Cambiasso has largely blocked the two points that Valencia can cut in.

And by Elo's side, there is also Inter Milan's captain Zanetti following at all times.

Mancini simply took advantage of the numerical advantage in the defensive line to completely limit Valencia's attacking trio.

Therefore, Valencia's subsequent attack could only threaten Cesar's goal through guò set-pieces and long-range shots from behind the midfield, but the probability of scoring from long range was surprisingly low.

Flores stood on the sidelines and watched the team's attack without knowing what to do, he didn't expect Inter to be so thorough in defense, basically leaving only one Ibrahimovic in front, and the other nine players returned to their own half.

What surprised him even more was Inter Milan's resoluteness in defending and counterattacking, using Ibrahimovic's personal physique and flexibility in his feet, he could also hold the football well when counterattacking, and then wait for the support of his teammates.

Compared to Valencia's attack, the home team's attack played better.
