Chapter 565: Impressed
Before the start of the game, among the new signings, Samuel Eto'o, who had just joined, was very excited, and he and his team-mates who started hugged each other one by one to encourage each other.
'Does Samuel Eto'o really want to score?' Sneijder, who was next to Hansen, asked, apparently for Eto'o's former team-mate.
Han Sen grinned, "When does he not really want to score?" โ
Indeed, when he was in Barcelona, facing Messi, who was already the future leader of the club, Eto'o even had to rotate with Messi to take penalties, which was not a manifestation of a strong desire to score. Now, Mourinho has said that he will give the penalty opportunity to Hansen, will Eto'o also snatch Hansen's penalty like Messi's penalty? Han Sen suddenly thought of this question and realized that he and Eto'o had not yet communicated in this regard!
In the second minute, Barry took the lead and the opponent's No. 90 Alvarez fired a low shot from 25 yards out, and Cesar easily got the ball. In the 7th minute, Inter Milan instigated a clever combination, Eto'o broke through a defender and passed, Milito knocked back in the penalty area, Eto'o shot with his right foot near the line of the small penalty area, and Barry goalkeeper Gillet blocked the ball. In the 8th minute, the Bari team was still behind Alvarez's diagonal pass, and the striker No. 20 Kutuzov successfully countered offside, but Inter goalkeeper Cesar made a timely save. After that, the two sides entered a stalemate stage, and Inter Milan was not in a hurry at home, and the game tended to be a little flat. In the 27th minute, Inter missed the chance to kill, Vieira picked up a pass in the midfield, Milito stepped forward to find the landing spot near the penalty spot and volleyed directly with his right foot, the ball was slightly high.
This half an hour. Jose Mourinho has been standing on the sidelines, while Hansen and Sneijder are also watching intently, for the two of them. This first game is a great opportunity to discover the difference between the style of Serie A and La Liga, and the difference between Barcelona and Real Madrid and Inter!
In Han Sen's view, the so-called extreme ball control style of Pep Guardiola's Barcelona is completely different, and Mourinho's style is much simpler. But as long as the opponent attacks, it is not only the full defense, but also the important thing. Once on the counter-attack, the line was clear and concise, with No.5 Stankovic up front not dragging his feet at all, with Milito and Samuel Eto'o as new signings. The spirit is also very strong. Inter's overall speed looks very fast! This made Han Sen, who was a little accustomed to Barcelona's rhythmic and stable pass-and-control play, actually look a little dizzying in this half hour.
Can I adapt to this pace and rhythm from start to finish? Han Sen couldn't help but ask himself.
And in the 29th minute, Mourinho was different again, and he actually took the lead in making substitutions during this time period, replacing midfielder Muntari with striker Balotelli! At the time of the substitution, Han Sen noticed. Muntari seemed to be a little depressed and unhappy. It's not because he was substituted, but from the very beginning of the game, Muntari was a little depressed and didn't show much effort.
This substitution suddenly made Han Sen look at Mourinho again, he can be regarded as from Li Xinran to Xu Genbao, from Manzano to Guardiola, and then from Yin Tiesheng to Gao Hongbo, he has served a lot of head coaches, many of whom can be called iron fists, but it is really rare for a head coach to make a substitution in the first 30 minutes of the game, no matter what the background of this situation is, at least the minds of the players are no longer on the field, Mourinho dares to replace people, this pure approach makes Han Sen a little weak-hearted! After all, sometimes he sometimes gets distracted on the pitch, but does Mourinho dare to replace himself like this? If the refusal to take a penalty against Mallorca last season is repeated, it is estimated that Mourinho will have to be replaced immediately!
Han Sen was not the only one with a weak heart, looking at this substitution, Sneijder also trembled slightly, and quickly sat up straight.
After Balotelli came on the field, Inter Milan suddenly changed the formation to 433, the two sides attacked and defended each other, the scene came and went, but they were all different, at halftime, the two teams entered the halftime break 0-0.
In the dressing room at half-time, Jose Mourinho made another substitution, with Portuguese winger Quaresma coming on to replace Patrick Vieira. Due to the shirt number, the number 14 Vieira sat next to Hansen's Barcelona team-mate Thierry Henry last season, and coincidentally, the two were also stars of the same era in France. In the 98 World Cup, when Henry became famous at a young age, Vieira did not become the main force of the team, but then with Henry in the Arsenal team in France, he created very amazing results, and was once regarded as the best midfielder in the world. But Mourinho said that he would change it at this time, and Vieira did not have the slightest temper, but quietly packed up the protective gear.
Han Sen thought to himself, Vieira's calm is certainly due to his age, and he began to be unable to retreat, but Mourinho's secret tough rule is also self-evident. At least unlike the usual excitement in the Barcelona dressing room, although Mourinho will not shout at the players in the dressing room or even be calm, the Inter players are basically quiet and silent.
Han Sen shivered a little, he joked a lot with Mourinho in private, I don't know if he will be scolded by Mourinho for a while when he is on the main field, as the main core in his mouth!
After the resumption of the second half, Inter Milan began to dominate the field after two adjustments, and in the 47th minute, Stankovic's right-footed shot from the top of the arc of the penalty area went wide of the far corner. In the 50th minute, Samuel Eto'o knocked back from the right, and Balotelli fired a right-footed shot from the corner of the penalty area, but the ball went wide of the left post. In the 52nd minute, Inter took a corner kick from the left side, Lucio headed the goal from the back point, the ball hit the shoulder of defender Ranocchia and bounced off the bottom line, the referee thought that the ball was a hand, and there was no penalty.
However, two minutes later, Inter got another penalty opportunity, Balotelli crossed from the right, Milito was kicked in the foot by the opponent defender Leonardo Bonucci when he grabbed the penalty in the middle, the Argentine striker fell, and the referee blew for a penalty.
Han Sen's heart tightened a little when he saw this scene, Mourinho once said that the penalty opportunity would also be given to him, if he played at this time, then he would be able to score the first goal of the season on behalf of Inter, and thus score his first goal of the season, what a monumental scene. However, it seems that he has nothing to do with such commemorative moments, and even the Champions League final made Park Ji-sung's appearance first!
Hansen was not there, and neither was the main set-piece Sneijder, and it was Samuel Eto'o who took the penalty, only to see him trick the goalkeeper into calmly sending the ball into the bottom left corner of the goal! 1-0, Samuel Eto'o's first goal in Serie A gave Inter the lead.
Seeing that Inter were ahead, Mourinho used a substitution for the third time, replacing Materazzi with Cรณrdoba. In the 67th minute, Inter missed the chance to kill, Milito made a steal in front and forced a low pass to the middle, Eto'o shot low into the far corner from 15 yards unguarded, and the ball went wide of the post! It was supposed to be a chance to kill the game, and Hansen and Sneijder on the bench even stood up with the rest of the bench thinking the ball had gone in, only to find out that the ball was deflected just as they were about to cheer! I couldn't help but let out a sound of annoyance.
Wasted opportunities on the pitch will always be punished, in the 74th minute, Bari equalized, Lucio tackle out of position, Langella broke through on the left side of the penalty area, he flashed Cordoba and crossed to the middle, Kutuzov won the ball from the penalty spot and pushed the ball into the bottom right corner of the goal! 1-1, Bari stubbornly tied the score.
The equaliser annoyed Mourinho as the three substitutions had been used up and could no longer be adjusted. In the final moment, Inter pressed the attack on all fronts, and in the 89th minute, McCone crossed from the right, and Quaresma's header from a small angle at the back point hit the goal, and the goalkeeper got the ball. Barry even had a chance to open the scoring in the final moments, when substitute Rivas fired a shot high above the lintel! The game ended in an instant, and the score was 1-1.
After the game, public opinion suddenly appeared to be different from Hansen's previous situation in Spain, and Alexander's newspaper Sport said: "Eto'o has lost his best chance to seal the three points. Other media outlets even gave Eto'o a game-low score of five points. Speaking of which, Samuel Eto'o was the only goalscorer in the game for Inter, and it was not a big mistake for the goalscorer to miss a golden chance. Samuel Eto'o scored a lot of goals during his time at Barcelona, but he also missed a number of golden chances.
The newspaper Sport Milano makes it clear: "...... At Barcelona, Samuel Eto'o misses a chance, and Hansen, Xavi, and Iniesta can still give him a second or third time, but at Inter, if he misses a chance, it is very likely to change the trend of the whole game......"
