Volume 6 Crimson Chapter 122 Missed Opportunity

"Ricardo? Quaresma!! Brilliant goal! ”

The Meazza Stadium is like an erupting volcano, and the blue fans turn into magma flames, boiling and burning in the stands.

'Quaresma is famous for his outside instep and now he's showing us his skills in the Champions League. This goal stunned the whole Nottingham Forest team! ”

The entire Nottingham Forest squad was indeed stunned...... Quaresma's goal was just too imaginative...... While some of them knew that Quaresma liked to kick the ball with the outside of his right foot on the right flank, no one could have imagined that he would succeed on his first attempt!

Thiago was Quaresma's team-mate in the Portugal national team and he reminded his Forest team-mates before the game that Quaresma's individual skills should not be underestimated. He was well-intentioned, but he didn't want Quaresma to play like that, and he really didn't expect it to be a prophecy.

George? Wood stood still, Quaresma running away from him, dancing to celebrate.

He suddenly felt that this was his own shame, and he clenched his fists. He didn't mean that he thought Quaresma was powerful and gave him a sense of powerlessness. It's because he relied too much on experience, which led to not stopping the opponent's shot. If he hadn't waited in front of him and pounced on him, he might have been able to get his hands on Quaresma and keep him from shooting.

Everyone else is admiring Quaresma's miraculous skills, but only George? Wood thinks it's just a mistake on his part.

It's his responsibility to concede this goal and he's going to find a way to make up for it.

※※※

Jose Mourinho celebrated the victory on the sidelines, while Toney? Don was exploding: "Damn! Damn it! What a fuck! ”

He didn't know who to scold, because Quaresma's goal was impeccable, and he wasn't the pervert who was strict with Wood, so he wouldn't scold Wood for conceding the goal because of his hesitation, and he wouldn't scold himself for being tactically wrong - it wasn't about tactics at all. But he was really upset because he was levelised not long after he took the lead. It's a blow to the team.

Players' morale and confidence will suffer, and there will be brief moments of lack of concentration in the game. These can lead to more serious consequences.

What's even more frustrating for Don than all of this is that if he continues to lead like this, then his hopes of winning this game will be greatly increased. But this advantage was fleeting. I really can't accept this result with a calm heart.

After venting his frustration in a chair with expletives, Don got up again and walked to the sidelines. At this time, he is dissatisfied and dissatisfied, he must cheer up the team and not shake the morale of the army.

Nottingham Forest's players did look a little frustrated, having only five minutes ahead before they were levelled...... It was not a small blow.

Wood isn't the kind of captain who will make loud and enthusiastic speeches to motivate his teammates. He'll just bury his head in it. However, the actual situation now is that someone must come out and say a few words in order to stabilize the morale of the army. Where do you find such people?

In fact, there is one on the sidelines.

"Bastard! You! It's just a draw! Let's not forget that we already have an away goal here! What do you guys have to be frustrated about! "Tony? Don stood on the sidelines, dancing with his hands open and roaring with his mouth wide open. "If it's leveled, give me another one! One away goal is not enough to score two away goals! Three away goals! Four away goals!! ”

Wood's job Donn was done, and he almost gave the middle finger to the dejected players on the field.

In fact, in such a noisy environment at the Meazza Stadium, the players who were a little farther away from Donn couldn't hear him yelling at all, but as soon as they saw their head appear on the sidelines and make some movements, their overwhelmed hearts settled down.

What is the spiritual pillar? What is a Natural Leader? It's just a pity that Donn can't play.

Mourinho snorted as he saw Don jump up and down on the sidelines. He could hear everything Donn was shouting, and as a Portuguese who knew several foreign languages, he was only as familiar with English as his native Portuguese.

I thought that having a heart attack would make him restrain himself, but I didn't expect this guy's temper to be as hot as ever, and this series of swear words simply repeatedly provoked the public's endurance. Isn't he afraid that one day he will be too emotional, and his heart will come back?

But...... A feeling of nostalgia slowly welled up from the bottom of my heart.

It's not often that you can hear such a fiery barrage and see such a vigorous sideline performance on the sidelines of the ring. But in England, Chelsea and Nottingham Forest are much more intense.

※※※

After the resumption of the game, Inter Milan wanted to take advantage of the momentum of the goal they had just scored and continue to launch a fierce attack on the heart of the Forest team, trying to overtake the score as soon as possible. However, Nottingham Forest's overall formation was recycled and they played a desperate counterattack. Left Inter at a loss.

This time it was Mourinho's turn to get up from his seat and make adjustments.

Mourinho gestured to his players to recycle and pay attention to the space behind them. You can't play against Nottingham Forest, because the more you have the advantage on the field, the more dangerous it is. As Donn's old rival, he can be said to know his obscene tactical ideas and habits well. Don't look at what the current Forest team has started 4231, and it is still called "Tony? Donn's own Christmas tree", which has the meaning of playing offensive football. In fact, this man is very utilitarian in his bones, and if the offense can't bring victory to the team, he doesn't mind immediately turning his face and rejecting his previous tactics and re-attacking to solve the problem with defensive counterattacks.

The Inter fans sang and danced in the stands, cheering for the team's dominance, and even the players got a little carried away, and McCone rushed up and didn't want to go back. Do they think they have too long to live?

Mourinho cannot allow such a thing to happen under his nose and must strangle all sources of danger in his infancy.

Perhaps Mourinho's convincing power wasn't enough, as Nottingham Forest spooked all the Inter fans in the stands with an attack.

Ibrahimovic showed his excellent foot skills in front of the penalty area, but he couldn't shake George away after a series of false shakes? Wood's centre of gravity, and in desperation, he passed the ball to Quaresma on the wing. Quaresma scored a goal at the start of the game, giving everyone an idea of how good he was today, and his team-mates began to consciously pass the ball to him during the game, especially after the Forest team began to shrink the defence, hoping to use his individual skills to tear apart Nottingham Forest's airtight defensive formation.

Quaresma had not yet received the ball before Thiago stabbed it away in the middle of the game.

Inter Milan had been besieging Nottingham Forest's goal just now, and almost the whole team had passed half-time, and even the two centre-backs who were dragging behind stayed near the centre circle to see if they could see anything cheap.

What an opportunity!

Nottingham Forest fans saw Thiago's successful break and started cheering loudly as if they had scored. The fans of Inter Milan didn't know why, and they thought that the fans of Nottingham Forest were so unproductive, but they were elated when the ball was broken...... So they raised their voices to cheer on the Inter Milan players, intending to silence the cheers of the Nottingham Forest fans.

Thiago didn't hesitate to pass the ball to George, who was the closest to him and the best passer? Wood.

Ibrahimovic was right in front of Wood, who reached out to break the ball, but the defensive action was amateurish compared to his attacking talent, and the defense was clearly "pretentious", and Wood shook the Swede away without much effort.

Coming down again, Wood brought the ball forward. When Cambiaso rushed up, he passed the football to Shahin, Shaheen turned and ran to the side, and Ibisevic was also running to that place, and the two attracted the two central defenders of Inter Milan, Samuel and Burdisso, but Shaheen suddenly reflexively passed the football to the opposite direction of his own running!

The man who received the football there was Fernandez who was plugged in the back.

With the running of Shaheen and Ibisevic moving the Inter defence, Fernandez was empty in front of him by the time he received the football......

Inter Milan fans suddenly understood why the Nottingham Forest fans were as excited as if they had been beaten with blood...... Because that's when the gang was even more excited.

"Fernandez got the ball!! He's got a lot of space in front of him now, and he can go straight into the box! ”

"!" In a hurry, Mourinho couldn't help but burst into a foul language. He can imagine Tony without turning his head? How big the smile on Donn's face was at this moment.

Nottingham Forest has been pretending to be a grandson for a long time, just waiting for a moment!

When he saw Fernandez burst into the box, his heart went cold. He felt that Forest would definitely score...... There is absolutely no reason for the Forest players, who are known for their defensive counter-play, to let go of such an opportunity.

"Rush, Chilean!" On the other side, Don excitedly blew the trumpet of the charge.

Inter Milan's Brazilian international Cesar opted to drop the ball as soon as Fernandez slipped the ball into the box, but he didn't go straight to the Chilean's feet, which would only make him easily shaken over. His approach was simply to minimise the angle of Fernandez's shot, while maintaining a reasonable distance to block the opposition's shot and avoid getting too close to the target and then being easily erased.

He made the right choice at the most critical time. Fernandez was going to shake off the attacking Cesar and shoot again, but when he looked up and saw that Cesar was right in front of him but didn't come up, which was different from what he had planned, he was distracted.

But he can't let football stop here and think about how to deal with it. Because it was found that Samuel and Burdisso, who had been fooled, had turned and pounced, as well as a group of other Inter players. The opportunity is fleeting.

In a panic, Fernandez opted to shoot straight at goal.

The soccer ball rolls against the turf towards the goal. Cesar falls to the ground and pounces on the ball, misjudged!

Unfortunately, Fernandez's push angle was too right, and although Cesar's hand didn't hit the ball, the foot he left behind blocked the ball!

The moment Fernandez scored, the Inter fans collectively held their breath. While Cesar blocked the football, the breathless crowd was the turn of the Nottingham Forest fans.

The fans of the two teams experienced the process of great joy and sorrow at the same time, and they should really hug each other and cherish each other......

"Fernandez shoots – ah! Julio? Cesar! He saved the hearts of all Inter fans! ”

In fact, after the football was blocked by Cesar, it did not immediately roll out of the bottom line, but Fernandez's heart obviously suffered a heavy blow. He stood still and didn't rush to get ready to shoot. Just holding his head in his hands, he watched in disbelief as the football slowly rolled towards the bottom line. Until Burdisso rushed up and kicked it out.

Ibisevic, who arrived later, was very unhappy with Fernandez's performance, and he yelled at the Chilean man with his head in his hands: "What were you just doing? You should go up and shoot instead of standing here in a daze! ”

Fortunately, Shaheen pulled him away, and at the same time, Fernandez didn't seem to hear Ibisevic talking to him, and continued to stand there with his head on his hands.

※※※

Mourinho felt as if he had just had a heart attack, and he was afraid of the rest of his life. He turned back to find his seat, wanting to sit down and rest.

Look at Tony on the other side? Dawn. He gritted his teeth and stared at the court, unable to say anything.

Behind him, Chris Lak and Don were thinking that when halftime, Fernandez's scolding would never have been able to run.

Although there was no goal, the Inter Milan fans were collectively frightened and silenced, and the power of Nottingham Forest's defensive counter-attack made the commentators start to worry about Inter.

'If Inter Milan are desperate to score, then they have to be prepared to score from Nottingham Forest. I bet it's not what Mourinho wants to see. Therefore, the current Inter Milan must make adjustments and press Nottingham Forest to play slow surname suicide! ”

Thankfully, that didn't happen, with Mourinho on the sidelines like Toney? Donn used rich body language and roaring to remind the team to pay attention to the recovery of the defense and not to press too high. His players were clearly frightened by the counter-attack, and obediently dropped back to fight Nottingham Forest back and forth in midfield.

Don wants to score away goals, one is not enough, so Nottingham Forest have to go up and attack.

The next game became Nottingham Forest's attack, and Inter Milan's defense counterattacked. 4231 is indeed a very powerful attacking formation, five midfielders and two midfielders make Forest's central defense solid, and Inter Milan's attack does not dare to invest too many troops at one time, so there are not many solutions.

The game has been so deadlocked, and the two sides occasionally have some good chances, but no one can take them. In this way, the game came to the end of the first half, and the score was 1:1. Nottingham Forest had a slight advantage because they scored an away goal and pressed Inter Milan on the field. But it's anyone's guess what will happen in the second half, after all, both managers are the type who will make some changes in midfield to turn things around, not to mention that the fact that these two guys are coming together is enough to say it all.

The commentator was still very happy with the goal scored by each side in the first half: "The game was not dull, both sides had wonderful goals and almost goals. I believe that with these two managers, the game will never be dull, and this first half quoted my point......"

He made sense to say that, as the two managers who walked back into the dressing room didn't look good, which meant they were unhappy with what had happened in the first half. Since he is dissatisfied, he will definitely make an adjustment to his surname at halftime. Then the second half will be exciting in comparison......

How nice it would be if every match was a heavyweight matchup like this!

That's what all the neutral fans thought.
