Chapter 53 The Explosion of Jingxuan

After a tough away game against Liverpool, the Inter Milan team was physically and mentally exhausted.

In the league away game against Sampdoria on the weekend, Mancini's Inter Milan was suppressed throughout the game. If it wasn't for good luck, it would be impossible to take away a point from the away game.

On February 2008, 2, Inter Milan, which had double matches for a week in a row, ushered in a challenge from Roma at home.

The confrontation between the top two in the standings is an important battle to determine the championship of this season.

Before this game, Inter Milan led Roma by 9 points in the standings. If they can win this battle, they will basically lock in the Serie A championship this season.

Due to Ibrahimovic's injury in training, Mancini still played a 4-3-1-2 formation in this game.

But unexpectedly, Jingxuan replaced Suazo and Cruise, and partnered with Crespo as the starting center.

Inter Milan's goalkeeper position is still the unshakable Julio Cesar. On the defense line, due to Cordoba's injury and Materazzi's suspension, Inter Milan had to discharge a temporary central defender line composed of Burdisso and Chivu.

In the position of full-back, Brazil's second generals Maxwell and Maicon continued to divide the game.

Inter Milan has the strongest lineup in midfield, with Zanetti, Vieira and Cambiasso forming the strongest midfielder combination.

During this period, Stankovic, whose playing time and position were unstable, served as the familiar midfielder position.

For the Roma team, the goalkeeper is still No. 1 Doni, and the back line from right to left is Cassetti, Mex, Ferrari and Tonetto.

In the midfield, the Roma team was heavily populated.De Rossi, Pizarro, Perotta, Taddei and core Totti formed a strong and creative midfield.

On the front line, the flamboyant Vucinic is ready to show his bloodthirsty fangs at any time.

After the start of the game, the strangulation of the two sides in the midfield was extremely fierce.

In this game, the Roma team must win, so in the face of Inter Milan's layered defense, the Roma team wants to win the game with chaos.

As far as Inter Milan is concerned, Ibrahimovic is not on the court, and their offense cannot be too simple, and they go directly to Ibrahimovic in the backcourt.

It is necessary to pass the ball comfortably to Jingxuan or Crespo through more detailed cooperation.

But the reality is that the Roma team's pressing is very crazy, just to bully Inter Milan's average ability to play the ball.

Jingxuan couldn't get the ball in the frontcourt, so he could only pull it to the side.

After all, he is not a Zhengyin center. Taking the ball on the wing can attract the defense of the opponent's defender.

And Crespo will also get more space to score points.

In the 8th minute of the game, Taddei dribbled the ball in the front court, and a fancy Marseille roundabout passed Vieira.

How could Vieira bear such humiliation, he shoveled over with his long legs, broke the ball, and passed the ball to Cambiasso when he fell to the ground.

Cambiasso rushed forward with the ball, and made a long pass with a low and flat ball to Jingxuan who pulled the ball up front.

After Jingxuan got the ball, facing Cassetti's defense, he started up in disguise and easily passed him.

Then he inserted obliquely into the penalty area of ​​the Roma team, spotted Crespo's position, and pushed the center with his left foot.

Crespo snatched the ball into the lower right corner of the goal with the toe of his left foot before Mexes could destroy it.

The score on the field became 1:0!

After the goal, the Inter Milan players embraced and celebrated. Mancini on the sidelines looked very happy and looked very relaxed.

And the Inter Milan fans sitting in the stands were even more happy.

This kind of quick counterattack and mercury-like goals has not appeared in Inter Milan's game for a long time.

In the past, Inter Milan was always based on the premise of defense and fell into positional warfare.

Use the individual abilities of star players to forcibly open the gap and create scoring opportunities.

Ibrahimovic is the most suitable for this style of play, but this style of play is okay in Serie A,

Once you meet the stronger and faster teams in the Champions League, this style of play will not work well.

At this time, Inter Milan often falls into the passive state of being suppressed. The counterattack cannot tear the opponent's defense line through speed, and the offensive effect of positional warfare is not obvious.

It's like a tomahawk cutting someone through an iron net. Before it can hit the opponent, it has been stabbed to death by the knife protruding from the gap in the net.

But now with Jingxuan, it is different. Inter Milan can fight back quickly, using Jingxuan's speed and technique to tear apart the opponent's line of defense in an instant. At this time, it is enough to have a center forward waiting for an opportunity to grab a spot. up.

Jingxuan was like a sharp knife out of its sheath, with a flash of white light, seeing blood sealing his throat.

Roma was a little frustrated after losing the ball. After all, the goal was scored too fast, and the Roma defense line couldn't stop it at all.

Without Ibrahimovic, Inter Milan has fully accelerated.

And the Roma team is most afraid of this kind of fast counterattack and strong impact team.

Continue to press or balance the formation?Now the Roma team is in a dilemma.

In the 13th minute of the game, Inter Milan made a comeback.

Jingxuan received a long pass from Cambiasso and launched a counterattack along the left side of the Roma team.

This time Pizarro has followed up and defended in place in advance. Facing the front and rear defenses of Pizarro and Cassetti,

Jingxuan stepped on the bicycle with one foot, broke through Pizarro's defense, and before Cassetti stretched out his foot to intercept, he stabbed the ball to Stankovic in the middle from the gap between the two.

Roma's defensive midfielder pulled to the side to defend Jingxuan, and the defense in the center was naturally loose. After Stankovic got the ball, although De Rossi was chasing and defending, it did not affect his shooting.

Stankovic dribbled the ball to the top of the penalty area and volleyed with his right foot. The ball was very powerful.

Roma goalkeeper Doni fell to the ground and hit the ball with his fist. Crespo, who had a keen sense of smell, snatched it up before Ferrari pulled him down. With his right foot arched in the air, he hit the half-high ball into the goal. Inter Milan scored 2: 0 lead.

Conceding two goals at once, the Roma team was completely in disarray, and the movements on the field became very big.

In the 18th minute of the game, Cassetti shoveled Jingxuan from the wing and was warned by a yellow card.

In the 23rd minute of the game, De Rossi elbowed Jingxuan behind him, which almost caused a conflict on the field.

Then Stankovic's direct free kick went over the bar.

In the 27th minute of the game, Jingxuan, who wandered to the right, once again staged a good show of riding alone.

After Maicon's own side steals the ball in the penalty area, he ran a long distance, but was knocked down by Taddei.

The referee did not stop the game in accordance with the principle of favorable offense. After Jingxuan got the ball, he continued to attack the Roma penalty area along the right.

Facing De Rossi's interception, the heel of his right foot came to a two-for-one cooperation with Stankovic, and after receiving the ball, he continued to insert into the ribs of the Roman team's penalty area.

At this time, the attention of the Roman team's defensive players is on Crespo and Stankovic who are preparing to grab points in the penalty area.

Who would have thought that Jingxuan didn't pass the ball, but a fake pass pretended to pass the ball, dunked over Tonetto, then took two steps horizontally in the penalty area of ​​the Roma team, and then shot the upper left corner of the goal with his left foot.

I saw the ball crossed a large arc, and finally fell into the upper left corner of the goal.

Inter Milan took a 3:0 lead.

After scoring the goal, Jingxuan didn't look too excited. He took off his shirt to reveal the commemorative underwear designed for him by Nike. He walked outside the bottom line, opened his arms, and accepted the cheers of the fans. Guys make pie.

Jingxuan's goal completely destroyed the confidence of the Roma team. The Roma players seemed to have seen the reappearance of last year's 1:7 away defeat to Manchester United.

Off the court, Mancini's face was full of red at the moment. He finally understood that Jingxuan playing forward is the key to winning against a strong team.

In the past against Rome, Inter Milan will not be easy, because the players of the Roma team are very motivated and aggressive on the field, which will not make Inter Milan players feel better.

But once Inter Milan speeds up, the Roma team will have nothing to do.

In the following game, Inter Milan relaxed a bit, and the Roman Prince Totti took advantage of a beautiful volley in the 38th minute to get back a goal.

In the first half of the game, Inter Milan led 3:1.

After the start of the second half, Mancini did not make personnel adjustments, and Jing Xuan once again staged an assist in the 67th minute.

I saw him break into the edge of the Roma team's penalty area, facing Tonetto's defense, pull the ball behind him with his right foot after an emergency stop, and then made a beautiful illustration pass. The ball went into the gate through Dhoni's handle.

Inter Milan took a 4:1 lead!

After this goal, Mancini immediately replaced Jingxuan with David Suazo, which was regarded as a kind of protection for him.

In the end, both sides failed to score any more goals. After this game, Inter Milan has already led the Roma team by 12 points. It can be said that the Serie A championship has been firmly held in the hands.

The next Inter Milan can devote all their energy to the second round of the Champions League against Liverpool.
