Now, it is pointless to ask why, for Inter Milan, the only way out now is that if the team wants to win the league title, this game cannot be lost anyway, and now for them, it is to recover the gap between these two goals without conceding any more goals!

After the restart, Inter Milan recovered from the blow of conceding a goal and launched a "retaliation" attack on AC Milan.

Ibrahimovic is particularly active, with him everywhere in front of him, left and right.

Now, Ibrahimovic is de facto the team's number nine and a half, and he organizes the attack.

On the run, Ibrahimovic met the ball and made an arc, not a shot, but a very unconventional pass! The pass deceived the AC Milan defenders. On the left side of the box, Crespo received a pass from Ibrahimovic, and then he accelerated past Maldini, and then he didn't continue to dribble or pass anyone, but suddenly shot straight at goal.

A sudden volley from the left side of the box!

The shot was powerful, but the angle was so average that Dida didn't dare to hold the ball, but chose a more secure approach, and he lifted the ball off the crossbar!

"Ibrahimovic's incredible pass, Crespo almost scored for Inter! Dida lifted the ball over the crossbar! Inter corner. ”

Figo took a corner kick, in the penalty area, Samoel grabbed it, he hit the goal with a header, and the ball was subconsciously blocked by Dida and hit the post. Nesta hurriedly kicked the ball out of the box.

Kaka received the ball in the front court.

Instead of passing the ball to Jonker on the left, he chose to dribble the ball himself.

There was a cheer from the stands throughout the San Siro stadium, and Kaka's long run with the ball was one of the most desirable sights for fans at the stadium.

Cambiaso goes to defend Kaka. He saw that Kaka's speed had clearly been taken up. Immediately the face changed dramatically. Cambiaso knows Kaka, he knows the power of Kaka, who has accelerated, and if he doesn't foul at this time, Kaka will definitely break through.

Cambiaso did not hesitate. He twisted from the side and shoveled towards the football. Direct tackle, Kaka is very smart to kick the football away, and he intends to continue chasing the ball, but he didn't expect Cambiaso's tackle to have a back move. He lifted his legs high. Sure enough, after Kaka poked the ball away, he saw Cambiaso's raised foot. Quickly dodged, but in the end, he was touched by Cambiaso's foot and fell to the ground.

There is no doubt about a foul.

The referee's whistle sounded amid loud boos from the Milan fans. Obviously. The Milan fan ended an attacking opportunity for Cambiaso with a foul that could lead to a goal. Very unpleasant!

After Kaka fell out. Sitting on the ground, I tidied up my shin guards. Cambiaso was very bad just now, and if Kaka didn't dodge, he would get hurt if he didn't get it right.

The referee gave Cambiaso a yellow card.

The latter had been mentally prepared for this for a long time, and did not appeal to the referee or protest.

Mancini's face changed, and he was bothered by this yellow card from Cambiaso, who was a barrier for the team in midfield and now after receiving a yellow card. It is inevitable that there will be some daunting in the subsequent games.

Mancini glanced at Patrick Vieira on the bench and began to consider whether to replace Cambiasso early in the second half. Replace Vieira.

As the second half drew to a close, Inter Milan launched a barrage of attacks on AC Milan's goal.

And Ancelotti also made tactical adjustments in time, the team fully returned to defense, and began to use defensive counterattack tactics, in order to keep the lead of these two goals, and now he is not extravagant to score, he can ensure that he does not concede goals, and he can keep the two-goal lead into halftime, which is a victory!

In the face of AC Milan's total retraction, Inter Milan did not seem to have many options, and once their attack reached the 35-metre area in front of AC Milan's goal, there was no good solution. More often than not, they can only choose to end the attack with long-range shots!

Figo shoots from distance, Cambiasso shoots from distance, Ibrahimovic shoots from distance, Crespo shoots from distance, Stankovic shoots from distance...... Even, Materachi rushed up and kicked a long-range shot.

After Materazzi's long-range shot flew over the crossbar, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half.

Generally speaking, a long-range shot is the easiest way to open up the opponent's stubborn ground, and you don't need any routines, just pick up your left and right feet and volley directly into the goal!

However, the offensive method of long-range shooting is also the most brutal and untechnical, and it feels like "gambling luck". On the other hand, when a team makes frequent use of long-range shots, it shows that they are impetuous.

This can be seen from the difference in the surface of the two teams when they leave the field. The Inter Milan players hurried with their heads down, while the AC Milan players had smiles on their faces and their expressions were more relaxed and natural.

Jonk even waved his arms to the stands to boost the morale of the fans, and in the cheers of the San Siro stands, Jonk and his teammates disappeared into the players' corridors.

Fifteen minutes later, players from both sides will emerge from there for forty-five minutes of the second half of the game!

Corresponding to the expressions on the faces of the players on both sides, the expressions on the faces of the two managers are also diametrically opposed, with Mancini with a stern face, and Ancelotti with a smile on his face, and Tasotti next to him seems to be still walking and exchanging something.

In the VIP box at the San Siro Stadium, Mourinho also got up and left his seat.

"Jorge, why don't you go and have a cup of coffee together, I'm in for a treat." Mourinho said to his agent, Mendes.

"Of course." Mendes smiled, "It's rare for you to have a treat." ”

The two of them found a small box in the VIP lounge and asked for two cups of coffee.

"Jorge, that thing. Is it still possible? Mourinho asked.

Mendes naturally knew what Mourinho was asking, and he looked noncommittal, "To be honest. I don't know, you don't know yet, Junk, if you haven't played enough, no one can make him change his mind! A return to Chelsea is unlikely and your time at Chelsea is not as good as it was at the beginning! ”

Jose Mourinho knows the problem Mendes is referring to, the big Chelsea owners are too eager to make a quick profit, and Mourinho's desire to stay at Chelsea for a league title is no longer enough. He wants to bring Jonk back, but also wants to make a breakthrough in the Champions League.

The transfer fee is not an issue, and Chelsea do not have to pay attention to the attitude of Milan, who originally included a condition attached to Chelsea's buy-back of Jonk. £45 million is not a thing, the key is the attitude of the players themselves, Jonk does not want to go, and it is useless for the two clubs to say anything.

Of course, Milan don't want to lose Jonk now. The problem is not easy to solve.

Just when Jose Mourinho was thinking about bringing Jonk back to Chelsea from Milan. In the home dressing room at the San Siro Stadium, the atmosphere was good.

"Well done, guys." In the first words of entering the house, Ancelotti praised everyone. "The 2-0 score is pretty good! This is the foundation for us to win! ”

After the praise, Ancelotti also poured cold water on his players as usual, so as to prevent his players from getting carried away, after all, the game was only in the first half, and there were still 45 minutes left in the second half. Anything is possible.

"Of course, no one should be careless. We were able to score two goals in the first half, so in a certain theory, it is not excluded that Inter Milan could score more goals in the second half. So, in the second half, everyone has to concentrate more and don't give Inter Milan a chance! Try to avoid conceding as many goals as possible, in that case, as the game goes on, Inter will start to get impatient, then the victory will be ours! ”

Compared to the more relaxed atmosphere in the home dressing room at the San Siro, the away dressing room is a different story.

It can be said that it is not an exaggeration to describe it as gloomy and bleak.

The home team dressing room at the Meazza Stadium, this home team dressing room, is actually the away team dressing room as well.

At this time, the atmosphere in the locker room was depressing.

Mancini is going crazy.

"See what you're all doing?" It was the first thing Mancini said when he entered the visiting dressing room, and his cold tone indicated that he was angry. "Who told you to take the ball on the field and shoot from distance? I don't remember in training I told you that the way to break the opponent's dense defense was to shoot from a distance! ”

It's not just the team that makes Mancini angry that the team is down 0-2, it's the overall look of the team after falling behind 0-2! The whole team was like a fly without a head, with no clue in attack and some confusion in defence, which was far more worrying for Mancini than being down 0-2.

The Inter players sat in silence in their respective positions.

The 0-2 score put a lot of pressure on their hearts. If they lose this game, they will go from two points ahead of AC Milan to one point behind AC Milan, and there is still one round of the league, and the initiative to win the championship will be snatched away by AC Milan!

Inter Milan captain Zanetti also had a bad face, in the first half of this game, the team's table was indeed bad, AC Milan's two goals looked insoluble, but, in the final analysis, it was the team itself that went wrong.

Zanetti is very serious about this year's Serie A title!

In the 2005/2006 season, that is, last season, although Inter Milan won the Serie A championship, but, because after the phone gate, Juventus did not hand over the trophy to Inter Milan at all, and if it did, it was equivalent to not getting it, and the trophy was not visible at all, and this season was the best chance for Inter to really win the championship.

This also made the Inter Milan players led by Inter Milan captain Zanetti very angry, and they gritted their teeth to win the championship again this season to prove it!

And this season, AC Milan is very strong, if you can step on the corpse of the rival in the same city to win the championship, it is undoubtedly the happiest thing!

The process and result of the first half of the game made Zanetti very dissatisfied, however, it was not yet to despair Cheng Dù, and now it is okay, although it is still 0-2, but there is still a second half of the game to fight!

Mancini continued to freak out for a while before starting to set up his tactics for the second half.

"Second half...... Completely block Jonker for me, I don't care what way you use, I can't let him take the ball comfortably and pass the ball comfortably. He's a dangerous guy. I think you know this all too well! ”

"Materazzi, you're going to keep an eye on one more!" Mancini glanced at Materazzi, "I don't want to criticize you too much. Because you did a good job defending against Jonker in the first half, but that can't hide that both of Milan's goals were related to Jonker! It's not your responsibility alone, the whole backline should reflect on how to defend Jonker! ”

Although Mancini said that it was not Materazzi's responsibility alone, Materazzi still felt very uncomfortable. After all, I'm famous.

"Foul! The action can be a little rougher, this is your forte! Mancini continued.

Materazzo looked at each other, not feeling anything bad about it. Because he is such a special, his movements are fierce, and there is nothing to be ashamed of.

"Offense...... Mancini beckoned, making a pull outward gesture. If they don't come out. Just pull them out. I don't want to see the stupid way of breaking down dense defenses with frequent long-range shots! Milan are bound to pull back in the second half, which will cause more problems for your attack! Zlatan Ibrahimovic, the team needs you to step up at this time. ”

Mancini looked at Ibrahimovic and said.

The expression on Ibrahimovic's face was stern, and he nodded, "I will." ”

'And McConn, you didn't have a lot of assists in the first half. Mancini pointed the finger at McCone again, "Do you need me to teach you how to play this game?" ”

"No, Coach." McCone was criticized for not being able to raise his head. "In the second half, you're going to see a different McConn."

"I hope so." Mancini snorted.

'It's a Milan derby. This match will determine the league title this season! If we lose this game, you know what that means! Mancini slapped the table hard, "If you don't want a season's hard work to be wasted, if you don't want to hear the damn media criticize and ridicule you, then give me a hard time!" Win the league championship! ”

Mancini's expression is hideous!

At this point, the second half of the game has already begun.

"The second half had just begun, and there was no difference between the first half and the first half, Inter Milan launched a tidal wave of attacks on AC Milan's penalty area, and AC Milan did not seem to panic when they were leading 2-0, in fact, the tactics of defending and countering were familiar to this team. Although it seems that the scene is a little ugly for AC Milan in the derby, it is not surprising that considering the importance of this game, for AC Milan, the victory must come first! As for the spectacle of the game, in front of the league champions, it is really nothing. ”

The commentator said it well, Ancelotti expressed his view and tactical intention to the whole team at halftime, that is, in the second half of the game, we should be based on defense, try not to concede the ball, or delay the time of conceding the ball, as for the attack, if you have the opportunity, you can play a quick counterattack, if you don't have a chance, forget it.

In a word, for victory!

About seven or eight minutes into the second half, Inter Milan's offensive momentum began to relapse and AC Milan had some chances again.

This time. Jonker was the first to feel the difference. Because when he has the ball, the defensive pressure he has to face is obviously increased.

Cambiaso pestered him desperately as if he had taken medicine, using both hands and feet. Add to that Materazzi, and sometimes even Figo will take the initiative to defend him. It makes him feel bad.

After all, Jonker is not a star like Ronaldinho who lives a magical life at his feet, in the high-speed dribbling, Jonke's foot movements are very practical and beautiful, but, when he is surrounded by the other party, he is a little weak, of course, in some cases, Jonk will also break out, this situation has a word called 'flash of inspiration', unfortunately, he does not plan to use the blessing of Xuangong now.

In the fifty-fourth minute of the game, Jonk had just received Kaka's ball, and Cambiaso pounced. Zanetti, who was on the side, also came over to watch.

In the case of being forced too hard by Cambiaso, Jonk had no choice but to pass the football to Pirlo, who came to pick up, Pirlo just got the ball, Zanetti pounced, and in the face of Zanetti's aggressive defense, Pirlo had no good way to pass it back to Favali on the side again.

Favali had just picked up the ball when he saw a figure pounce on him.

It's McConn!

McCone suddenly interjected and broke the ball from the feet of an ill-prepared Favali!

"Favali's ball is broken!"

There were loud boos from the stands at the San Siro stadium. Because the fans know how dangerous it is to be tackled this time.

"Not good!" Seeing Favali cut off the ball, Ancelotti was so shocked that he got up from his seat.

Just now, Pirlo passed the ball back and Favali came up to receive the ball at full-back. What is behind Favali, is the exclusion zone! There, only two centre-backs remained!

At this point, Favali was even behind Gattuso and Ambrosini, and their role in protecting the team's midfield was meaningless at this moment!

Losing the ball in this position means McCone has a lot to do now!

His breakthroughs, long-range shots, or passes can pose a great threat to AC Milan's Earth goal!

This time the ball was cut off, and Favali did not turn around immediately. Instead, he was stunned for a moment, and then he turned sharply and threw himself at McConn.

Mancini clenched his fists excitedly on the sidelines, and that's what he wanted. This is exactly what he wants to see when he criticizes McConn, who is in his prime of life, and is facing Favalli, an old man, as long as McCone plays at the level he deserves. Favalli is no match at all!

McConn dribbles the ball. Favali chased after him, and in an instant, both men were in the box.

Nesta originally came up and planned to intercept McConn, but seeing McConn enter the penalty area, Nesta had to be cautious, and he didn't dare to make a rash move now. He also had to pay attention to Ibrahimovic and Crespo on either side, for fear that McCone would suddenly split the ball. And this is not less likely. After all, McCone is only a full-back, not a theoretical finisher in attack.

McConn deliberately slowed down after entering the penalty area, and he seemed to be watching the situation.

It was at this time that Nesta pounced decisively!

However, McCone is also waiting for Nesta to pounce, for him, Favali behind him is no longer a threat, what he is afraid of is Nesta, waiting for Nesta to move up first.

At the moment of Nesta's pass, McConn pushed with his foot and the ball rolled to the right side of the penalty area!

The target of the pass is Ibrahimovic!

Maldini fell to the ground and slid to break the pass.

Ibrahimovic's long legs came into play, he stretched out his right leg in style, pulled the ball over, and then turned around and leaned on Ambrosini who came up to defend him on the other side, while his arms were raised and the ball was plucked at his feet, ready to shoot......

At this moment, Ibrahimovic suddenly fell forward and fell to the ground!

The referee's whistle sounded!

"Penalty?"

"Is the referee pointing to the penalty spot?"

The referee stepped forward, first pointed to the ball, then he took out a card from his pocket and walked towards the veteran Favalli, who was in a daze at this time.

Favali was indeed in a daze, the veteran chased back desperately after the ball was cut off just now, he said that he was not fast enough to catch up with McConn, but when he saw McConn pass the ball to Ibrahimovic, he immediately shifted the target and pounced on Ibrahimovic.

As Maldini slid towards the ball, Favali also made a tackle.

Here's the problem, when Favali came down, Ibrahimovic was stopping the ball, and when his feet against the turf were tackled, Ibrahimovic just pulled the ball and turned around, what was the result?

Ibrahimovic was brought down directly from behind by Favali.

"Penalty and red card! There is no doubt about it! The commentator close to Inter Milan excitedly shouted, "Will this be a turning point in this game?" ”

Ibrahimovic rose from the ground and opened his arms to meet his teammates for a hug. The ball came just in time. Well, compared to the ball, Favali's red card is equally significant.

Favali looked at the red card as the veteran covered his face in pain.

Ball plus red card!

This is arguably the heaviest blow a defender can suffer!

Favali did not appeal to the referee, knowing that he could not hide the red card and that he could not hide the ball. As soon as he got down, Favali knew something was wrong.

Maldini came up to comfort Favali and escorted the veteran to the sidelines.

"I'm sorry."

Maldini shook his head: "Why apologize?" I just let go of the shovel, so I can't let that guy do anything in the box. Don't worry, we're going to win the game! Go back and take a shower and celebrate together when the game is over. ”

Favali sighed, still relieved, knowing that the situation was not as rosy as Maldini had suggested. (To be continued......)
