Chapter 798 Young Icardi

At the end of the intermission, the two sides returned to the court, and the second half of the game began.

Conte suddenly discovered that Mazari had changed his formation, from 352 to 343. He has not yet seen how this formation is played, because the same formation may have completely different tactics. It's not the roundworm in Mazari's stomach, I really can't figure it out for a while.

In the second half, the actions of the two sides seemed to be much smaller. The main reason was that Banti had already given two yellow cards to the two teams in the first half. The objects of the cards are both a midfielder and a defender.

Juventus, like Inter Milan, dare not let their players off the field easily, unless it is really a last resort, so everyone has a tacit understanding in their actions.

Conte soon saw the power of 343. Originally, Mazari’s arrangement was to reduce the number of midfielders, which led to the entanglement in the midfield, allowing Juventus to gradually gain the upper hand, but in terms of offense. It's different, Mazari is playing on the side. Facing Juventus' heavy troops in the middle, Mazzari single-mindedly let Inter Milan frequently make a fuss from the side.

Nagatomo Yuto and Jonathan are supporting behind Alvarez and Palacio. Once there is a chance, they will boldly press up. Alvarez and Palacio can directly kill Juventus In the penalty area, Icardi can put pressure on Juventus' three defenders, and one can also take one to the center for organizational work.

Invisibly, this style of play suppressed Juventus' two wings to a certain extent. Neither Lichtsteiner nor Asamoah dared to step forward rashly. They were worried that the gap behind them would be used. , because Inter Milan now has left and right wingers.

Icardi didn't appear to be very advanced when he played, and he didn't get the ball a few times. When he got the ball, he also consciously cooperated with his teammates, and he didn't play hard like the opposing forward.

Of course, being strong is not his specialty. Icardi has a trait similar to that of Inzaghi, that is, his running position is more coquettish. Being able to score goals in front of a defense line like Juventus is very important.

He is more mature now because of this trait. This trait requires his teammates to pass the ball. Mazari should also know his situation better, so he deliberately held down Juventus to play from the side.

As for Juventus, Conte's tactics were not effective due to the worries on the sidelines. Lichtsteiner and Asamoah were worried that they would be too late behind them, so how could they go to the opponent's penalty area unreservedly? .

Zhang Yuan and Carlos Tevez on the front lines became active within a few minutes of the opening and then fell silent. They also need a little patience to find loopholes. Blindly high-profile is not a good thing.

After the 50th minute of the game, Mazari saw the situation of Juventus clearly, and immediately resorted to his magic weapon again, pressing high and pressing unreservedly.

He was going to catch Juventus by surprise. After the second half, he didn't let the team press high. In fact, no team blindly implemented high press. Except for Barcelona, ​​there was Zhang Youchi. normal.

And Juventus immediately made a fatal mistake. The three forwards and four midfielders suddenly moved forward, forcing Juventus's defense to be in a hurry. Chiellini made a mistake in such a panic.

In the 52nd minute, Chiellini took the ball and was intercepted by Alvarez in the frontcourt. Alvarez did not hesitate and sent a diagonal plug directly. Icardi understood and once again showed the true qualities of a Juventus killer. Attack, before Bonucci, a low shot into the far corner.

The ball rolled into the goal from Buffon's armpit!

There was a tsunami of cheers at the Meazza Stadium, and the Inter Milan fans sang Mauro Icardi's name in unison. Killing the star is killing the star. In just 7 minutes of playing, he broke through the opponent Juventus. Gate, Inter Milan fans have no reason not to like him.

With a cheerful smile on his young face, Icardi ran to the stands of Inter Milan fans, put his hands to his ears, listened to the cheers of the fans, and greeted the hugs of his teammates.

Last season, he was the absolute main force of Sampdoria. He scored 31 goals and 10 assists in 4 appearances, 10 goals, 7 of which were scored in three games. In Juventus, he scored 3 goals alone.

Looking at such scoring efficiency, many people may think that he is not good. Compared with Zhang Yuan, he is certainly not good. The reason is that he has very distinctive characteristics and is very dependent on his teammates. He played in Barcelona in his early years. , Why didn’t he finally get promoted to the first team? That’s the reason. Now the Barcelona style of play, the center basically wants to be all-round. Eto’o, Henry, Villa, Ibrahimovic, etc. are all capable of passing. The type of shooting, good at playing for teammates, Icardi is obviously not that kind of striker now, so he finally had to leave.

When Icardi joined Inter Milan, he also said that Barcelona can't tolerate his type of center forward, claiming that Ibrahimovic's experience in Barcelona was also a failure. In fact, he was only half right. Barcelona really don't need him. This type of center forward, but Ibrahimovic is not his type of center forward, and Ibrahimovic's experience in Barcelona is not a failure in a fair way.

Sampdoria was originally promoted to the second division last season. Icardi played the biggest role as a center forward. The team does not have so many good passers, so the efficiency is not high, but it is undeniable that he still Has the potential to grow into an excellent center forward.

You must know that Marotta also wants him, but there is basically no room for Icardi on the Juventus striker, and he can't do it if he wants it.

The situation of Inter Milan is different. Milito is old and has many injuries. The center position will soon be Icardi. Mazari is still relatively cautious in using Icardi.

Conte was very depressed. Even though he saw clearly that Mazari was going to play hard on the wing, he didn't intend to change the team's style of play, but such a mistake in the defense is too much to say. The idea of ​​ball control, the national derby game, it is destined to be difficult to control the ball very well.

Buffon was naturally angry and loudly blamed Chiellini. Such a mistake on the court was really undeserved. Chiellini dared not say anything, but just rolled up his jersey to cover his face, which was a bit shameful. man.

Zhang Yuan and Carlos Tevez were relatively silent. What is this shit called? Compared with Inter Milan's goal, Juventus' goal is more straightforward.

No matter how depressed you are, you have to keep kicking the ball. The game restarts. Mazari succeeds with one blow and continues to press the frontcourt. He is very experienced. At this time, you must not just back down and play a stalemate with Juventus , Once retreated, Juventus is likely to take advantage of the situation to make a fuss. This Juventus has experienced strong winds and waves, and will not lose confidence because of a goal.

If Inter Milan continues to maintain a strong pressure, Juventus will focus more on defense and reduce Inter Milan's defensive pressure. What Mazari is worried about is that the over-excited Inter Milan will have a loophole after scoring. The players were indeed very excited. They celebrated for a long time just now, and it was the referee who urged them to return to the court.

Mazari was really sensitive to bad premonitions. In the 55th minute, Inter Milan's high-position press failed. Bonucci saw the opportunity and directly opened the long pass mode, playing Inter Milan's side.

The Inter Milan defenders who were still in a state of excitement were obviously not concentrating. Carlos Tevez easily got the ball on the left side.

There is a reason for his choice. Bonucci's long pass is relatively sidelined, and although Inter Milan's defense is pierced, when Tevez succeeds in getting the ball, everyone is already in a level position. Tevez thinks It is also relatively difficult to pass others, so he simply chose to cross and let Zhang Yuan go for the spot.

This time he and Zhang Yuan formed a very good tacit understanding. Tevez didn't let Zhang Yuan go to the top, but passed a low-altitude ball, bypassing Xiao Juan, and landing in the middle of the penalty area. Zhang Yuan was very fast. , Ranocchia couldn't guard him, and followed up with a shovel shot from the middle. Zhang Yuan successfully shoveled the ball into the gate handled by Handanovic.
