Chapter 405 Chapter 404: Mourinho's Practical Football Thoughts!

"Pong!..."

A loud noise shattered the silence of Meazza.

The football hit the post and flew out of the bottom line!
Van Persie once again covered his face in pain, and he once again missed the chance to overtake the score.

The Inter Milan fans were sweating profusely. They didn't know what to do except thank the god of luck.

After regretting, the Arsenal fans applauded to show encouragement, and they were full of confidence in the victory.

The ESPN commentator said regretfully: "The god of luck is on the side of Inter Milan. Van Persie missed two consecutive chances to score goals!"

The commentator of Milan Sports TV said with lingering fear: "Come on, Inter Milan, since the god of luck is on our side, then we will beat Arsenal!"

Adal, the commentator of Dutch National TV, said loudly: "It makes sense for Arsenal to eliminate the six-time champion Barcelona. Their offensive is sharp and they tear through Inter Milan's defense time and time again. They are only a little luck away from scoring goals."

After Cesar got up from the turf, he yelled at his teammates. The Inter Milan players forcibly suppressed the shock in their hearts and rejoined the game.

In the next few minutes, Inter Milan was united and did not give Arsenal an excellent chance to shoot.With two short and one long whistles from the referee, the first half ended with a score of one to one.

As the players from both sides returned to the dressing room, the Stadio San Siro fell silent.

But the broadcast seats were not silent, and the TV stations were busy summarizing the first half.

The ESPN commentator said: "Looking at the first half of the game, the two sides were evenly divided. They both created a lot of good chances and scored two beautiful goals..."

The commentator of the Milan sports station said: "Mourinho must find a way to counter Arsenal's high press, and we cannot let this situation continue..."

Bill, the commentator of Sky Sports, said: "The most impressive thing in the first half, apart from Chen's free kick, was the wonderful cooperation between him and Van Persie in the opponent's penalty area..."

Adal, the commentator of Dutch National TV, said: "Inter Milan made a fantastic start, but Arsenal did not collapse because of it. With Chen's direct free kick, they equalized the score..."

……

On the way into the locker room, Inter Milan's tactical coach came to Materazci's side and patted him on the shoulder: "You performed very well, you are almost back to your peak level."

Materac's family knows their own affairs. Except for the header in the opening game, his performance in defense can only be said to be average.

The only commendable thing in the defense was the tactical foul. Of course, this was based on the fact that Chen Fan failed to score a free kick.

As a result, Chen Fan scored that free kick, turning his only commendable place into a stain.

"Thank you!"

After hesitating for a moment, Materacchi said, "You can consider letting Lucio replace me."

Thinking of Chen Fan's terrifying speed, the Inter Milan defense general felt a huge sense of powerlessness, and he knew that he was really old.

The tactical coach shook his head and said, "No, you continue to persevere, your mission has not been completed."

A gleam flashed in Materac's eyes, and then fell into deep thought...

In the locker room of the visiting team, the atmosphere was lively. The substitute players were discussing some clips of the first half, while the starters silently wiped the sweat from their faces and bodies with towels.

Wenger walked slowly to the middle of the locker room, and the players' comments gradually subsided.

"We played very well in the first half and played our rhythm!"

The Frenchman first praised his players, then looked at Chen Fan and said, "Chen, you should know what kind of person Materac is. So you must stay calm under his provocation."

Thinking of the scene where he stretched out his hand to Materacci, Chen Fan was afraid for a while. If Van Persie hadn't stopped him in time, he would have been waiting for a red card.

Chen Fan nodded towards Wenger.

"mean!"

Thomas Rawski cursed in a low voice.

Wenger said helplessly: "Whether the opponent is despicable or aboveboard, we must maintain a calm heart. This is the arena. Things that you can't imagine can happen at any time on the arena."

He withdrew his thoughts and shifted the topic to the second half: "10 minutes before the start of the second half, we will continue to press high and disrupt the opponent's rhythm..."

In the locker room of the home team, the atmosphere was a bit depressing. In the last 10 minutes of the game, they were completely suppressed by Arsenal in the half.

This is Meazza, their home stadium...

Mourinho raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "I know everyone is very dissatisfied with the performance in the last 10 minutes, but I don't think so!"

"What I pursue is the result, not the process!"

The voice of the Portuguese is getting louder: "Barcelona's magnificence amazed the whole world, but they fell at the feet of Arsenal. How did Arsenal win? Did they rely on a gorgeous position to attack?"

"No!"

"They rely on defense and counterattack!"

He looked deeply at his players and said: "We can also use the same method to beat Arsenal!"

"Therefore, there is nothing to be passive in the scene. As long as we can seize one or two opportunities to defend and counterattack, the victory will definitely belong to us!"

Italian football is inherently pragmatic, and the oppression of the locker room is slowly dissipating.

Captain Zanetti said loudly: "The coach is right. Even if we play brilliantly, we will still receive criticism if we lose the game. But if we win, they will praise us!"

The Portuguese nodded in satisfaction, and then said something exciting for the Inter players: "Chen has already received three yellow cards!"

"What does that mean?"

"This means that in the next round, he will be suspended!"

After the extreme silence in the locker room, the atmosphere suddenly became lively.

Materac's eyes lit up, and then he fell into thought again.

Since Chen has already received three yellow cards and is suspended next time, his task should have been completed, but why did the tactical coach say that my task has not been completed?
It doesn't make much sense to let Chen eat or not get a red card. Anyway, he will be suspended for the next game. What does the tactical coach mean by that sentence?
Is it...

A flash of lightning flashed across Materaz's mind, and he finally understood what the tactical coach meant - Van Persie!

In Wenger's tactical system, Van Persie's role is as important as Chen's.

Even in the positional attack, Van Persie is more important than Chen, playing the role of the frontcourt fulcrum.

If Van Persie gets a red card, the Dutch Shuangsha will be suspended for the next game, then Inter Milan will have a lot to do at the Emirates Stadium!

……

After a 15-minute break, players from both sides re-entered the court, and the second half of the game, which will determine the outcome, is about to begin.

Chen Fan didn't realize that he would be suspended for the next game due to accumulating three yellow cards. He was thinking about how to tear apart Inter Milan's defense.

Materaz gave Van Persie a deep look, Van Persie frowned slightly, and he felt a chill.
