With the whistle of the referee, the Champions League final between Liverpool and Inter Milan officially began!

Liverpool kicked off first, and after Torres kicked the ball to Qin Xiong, Qin Xiong did not immediately launch an offensive, but passed the ball back.

The two teams opened up, and the pace was not fast. After all, this was a final concerning the highest honor.

There is nothing wrong with both sides facing it with a cautious attitude.

Liverpool pass the ball in the midfield, the players are familiar with and adapt to the field, enter the game state, especially unify the rhythm of the team players, this is the most important at the beginning of the game.

Mourinho stood on the sidelines observing Liverpool's starting formation.

Koeman did give him a big surprise.

In the battle to eliminate Bayern Munich, Dirk Dirk, who performed well, actually sat on the bench!

It was Lucas instead.

Liverpool's formation can be said to be very similar to Inter Milan.

Mourinho put Pandev on the bench for only one reason: fear of Liverpool's attack!

If Pandev plays, then Inter Milan's attack group will be Sneijder + Pandev + Eto'o + Milito.

This is indeed strong, but the defense lacks protection.

Mourinho will have the confidence to play against an ordinary strong team, but he can play against Liverpool, and attack Liverpool, which makes many opponents fearful?

He still needs to add a layer of protection.

Three midfielders!

Zanetti + Cambiasso + Motta.

Sneijder is in front of the backline and Eto'o is in ambush near Milito. If you really want to fight back, as long as the backline can complete the offensive and defensive transition and play fast, then the counterattack is actually not to mention three people, maybe two people. enough.

This is Mourinho's deployment, but he didn't expect that Koeman actually seemed to have the same effect as his formation.

It also looks like a three-back midfielder.

Lucas + Alonso + Mascherano.

Gerrard tops the middle in front of the midfielder.Then Qin Xiong and Torres became the vanguard of the attack.

Liverpool is obviously also afraid of Inter Milan.

At least it seems so.

But when Liverpool's first shot appeared, Mourinho suddenly changed color.

That was in the 5th minute of the game.

When Gerrard ran from the center to the right to respond to Johnson's pass, and then quickly passed the ball to the center, Alonso who inserted in the center then passed the ball diagonally to Qin Xiong's left.

Qin Xiong crossed the ball and dribbled in front of Zanetti. Before Cambiasso could close up and press, he kicked the goal!

35 yards from goal!

After the football circled Lucio's head, it began to fall.Cesar swooped sideways to block the ball out of the baseline.

Liverpool's first kick came from a long shot, and it was very threatening!

Mourinho recalled the process of this shot, and then he realized the real intention of Koeman's formation today.

not 442.

But 433!

At least not the extremely aggressive 433.

Qin Xiong and Gerrard are active on the side road near the middle road, with Alonso in the middle and Torres rushing forward!

Torres' position is critical, because he always presses the back line led by Lucio and Samuel.Forcing Inter Milan's back line can not go forward, to avoid exposing the anti-offside space to Torres.

It's a defensive instinct that doesn't have to be thought about.

Qin Xiong, Gerrard, Alonso, all three of them have the ability to send a kick with a strong penetrating power!

Naturally, the back line can't press forward, otherwise Torres will be offside, and a teammate behind him will send an exquisite through ball.Then it's all over!

Just because Torres restrained Inter Milan's back line, it also caused the back waistline to not be too far away from the back line.

Don't forget, Qin Xiong has a strong dribbling and breakthrough ability.

Only by maintaining a sufficient distance from the back line to the back line can Qin Xiong avoid the danger of facing the back line after being broken line by line.

Therefore.The distance from the back waistline to the goal is about 30 to 40 yards.

In this way, Liverpool shaped the offensive situation with a kind of deterrence, and then they started unscrupulous long-range shots!

Qin Xiong, Gerrard, and Alonso do not simply have the ability to deliver threatening balls.They also all have a characteristic, that is, their long-range shooting ability is extremely strong!

It can be said that Coman's formation is a good use of the two advantages that these three have in common.

Play a long-range threat with possible threat ball delivery!

The most important thing is that Liverpool does not appear to be aggressive in playing like this.The back line is very stable!

It will not give Inter Milan an open counterattack space!

Johnson and Aurelio will come to the midfield to support at the right time, but they will never rush forward.

Lucas and Mascherano guarded the midfield in a contented manner.They will be an important force to cut off Inter Milan's counter attacking trio.

In the 8th minute of the game, Motta passed the ball to Sneijder. The latter encountered dense defense in the middle, and the midfielder did not move. Alonso and Gerrard alone made Sneijder feel great pressure. Being double-teamed and pressed, Sneijder still passed the ball to Eto'o on the side.

Eto'o's characteristic is more prominent in running positions and grasping opportunities. He is not a master of long-distance running and dribbling. Milito, but after the football was passed, he was immediately intercepted by Skrtel.

When Inter Milan lacked a wide counterattack space, Eto'o's speed advantage could not be brought into play at all. Milito could have been a terminator or a fulcrum, but he was caught in Liverpool's multi-person defense, and his role was difficult to play. .

Mourinho told himself to calm down, and he will continue to observe for a period of time to see if Liverpool will stick to this style of play for a long time.

Koeman stood on the sidelines calmly.

Facing this final, his first consideration was not how to play out Liverpool's advantages.

But how to limit the opponent!

Don't look at Liverpool scoring goals all the way, bombing their opponents to pieces, but in the final, and the opponent is Mourinho, Koeman will not take it lightly.

Inter Milan has no capital to play against Liverpool. It's not that Inter Milan's offense is not strong enough, but Mourinho is too cautious. He should first think that once Inter Milan plays against Liverpool, Inter Milan's defense line can Can it withstand Liverpool's swift counterattack?

Because of this, Inter Milan's defensive counterattack strategy is not difficult to predict at all, so Mourinho simply and generously admitted this before. This will not be a secret at all, and it will not be full of mystery.

In order to contain Inter Milan's counterattack, the first is the space, and the second is the number of defenders. Combining these two points, Koeman formulated the tactical strategy for this game.

During the game, Koeman glanced at Mourinho inadvertently, and thought: I will not give you the chance to lead like six years ago! (to be continued~^~)
