Football irons are burning

Chapter 186 Recoba's Counterattack
Moratti didn't take Tanzi's jealousy seriously. His team was piled up with money.

Although Parma also has good stars, compared with Li Tie and Ronaldo, the value is far behind!
Afterwards, Tanzi's face became ugly three more times. Ronaldo scored a hat-trick in the following games. In the end, Inter Milan beat Parma 6-0 at home.
However, Lazio defeated Turin 3:0 and continued to lead with three consecutive victories.

Inter Milan, with two wins and one tie, tied for second place with Juventus and Fiorentina.

Although only three rounds have passed, it is estimated that these teams will form a championship structure. AC Milan will tie this round. Like Roma, they only have 5 points, and there is already a lot of distance from the top of the list.

Of course, it is still too early to comment on all this, after all, the league has only passed three rounds.

After this round of competition, the major media still made their own comments. Li Tie's performance once again made them realize that the rise of Inter Milan is inevitable.

Gazzetta dello Sport used a lot of space to describe the role of Li Tie, believing that his role on the defensive end is irreplaceable, and that his talent on the offensive end has made Pirlo and Stankovic pale. Inter Milan has Li Tie and will definitely rise this season.

Turin Sports Daily also reminded Juventus to be careful about Inter Milan and should not only focus on Lazio.

The newspaper believes that the arrival of Li Tie has changed the temperament of Inter Milan, as well as its teammates. With Li Tie present, Inter Milan is a high-speed killing machine. Although Parma is very strong, it has no resistance in front of Inter Milan.

Corriere dello Sport also reminded Lazio that the biggest opponent is Inter Milan. In the two rounds of confrontation, we must go all out to prevent Inter Milan from taking all three points.

After this round of the league, the UEFA Champions League will start in full swing.

When Li Tie returned to his hometown, the UEFA Champions League had already held the group draw ceremony.

Inter Milan and the defending champion Kaiserslautern are in Group A, alongside Chelsea and Lokomotiv Moscow.

This kind of grouping made Li Tie feel that UEFA's Champions League grouping seems to have begun to have some unspoken rules.

How strange is it to let yourself face off against your old club?
When Li Tie left Kaiserslautern, he already said that he would not play against Kaiserslautern. Therefore, he can only play four games in this Champions League group stage.

In the first round of Inter Milan's away game against Kaiserslautern, he will be on the sidelines.

Not only that, Drogba, Materazzi and Stankovic will also not play. Now more and more clubs are starting to activate the avoidance clause. Now, the strength of Inter Milan has been greatly weakened.

In the middle of the week, Inter Milan came to the Walther Stadium to challenge Kaiserslautern.

After the game started, the home team had the upper hand.

Kaiserslautern has gradually slowed down in recent rounds, and the team's cooperation has become more and more proficient.

Mourinho replaced Li Tie with Di Biagio and continued to play a 3-5-2 lineup.

Recoba was used as the attacking midfielder, and he replaced Stankovic.

On the defensive line, Lucio started for the first time, replacing Materazzi who was evading.

However, only 5 minutes into the game, Lucio made a big mistake on the back line. His attack, after being passed by Milito, formed a one-on-one.

Cech did not keep the goal, Milito volleyed and scored, 1:0!

The home fans were in a frenzy, and Lucio was a little frustrated.

After 8 minutes of the game, Lucio dug a hole again. His foul in front of the penalty area gave the opponent a free kick.

Schneider kicked through the heart, 2:0!

Lucio was then replaced by Zanetti, and the team lineup was adjusted to 4-4-2!

Obviously, Mourinho is very disappointed with Lucio.

In fact, Lucio, like Materazzi, is a top central defender in the future, but it is still almost ready.

He doesn't have many chances to compete, so naturally he still needs to practice.

Kaiserslautern, who led by two goals, began to recover, and Magath's team also liked to do so.

This time, Inter Milan had to press up and attack, after all, the score was also behind.

In the 40th minute, Pirlo and Ronaldo cooperated continuously. With a jump at the front of the penalty area, Eto'o turned and volleyed. 2:1, Inter Milan pulled back a goal.

In the second half of the game, Recoba began to take over the game.

Uruguayan talent is indeed very good.

In the 66th minute, he took a long shot from 35 meters away. Kaiserslautern goalkeeper Bout didn't respond. He didn't expect that Recoba would shoot from this position. As a result, the ball went in. 2:2, Inter Milan equalized the score.

Recoba was also very excited. He thought he had no chance to play this season, but in the first game of the Champions League, he actually made his debut.

Moreover, such a beautiful goal was scored.

Recoba also pondered in his heart: Will Mourinho turn a blind eye to himself in the future?
10 minutes later, Recoba made a comeback, kicked an earth-shattering world wave, and smashed a free kick 30 meters away directly into Bout's goal. 2:3, Inter Milan overtook the score!

This time, Recoba was even more excited, rushed to the sidelines and shouted to the sky, vomited his aggrieved past.

Mourinho looked at it, and his face was a little complicated. Recoba scored two, which was indeed beyond his idea.

But Recoba did not meet Mourinho's tactical requirements, and due to physical reasons, Mourinho did not want to use Recoba.

But these two goals will definitely put pressure on Mourinho. After all, Recoba is a player that Moratti likes. If he doesn't use it, there will definitely be a certain amount of pressure.

At the last moment of the game, Magath replaced Cruz and Pantic and played four forwards. This is a desperate posture at home.

In stoppage time, Pantic headed the ball and Klose missed the goal. Kroos kicked the ball into the goal, 3:3!

In the end, the two sides drew 3:3, and the first game ended peacefully.

However, there were quite a few voices after the game.

The German media are satisfied with Kaiserslautern's tie at the last moment, and think that the defending champion's temperament is still very good, and it is commendable to be able to tie with Inter Milan.

The Italian media believes that without Li Tie, Inter Milan seems to be unable to win, and Mourinho's tactics are questionable.

The Italian media criticized Lucio's recklessness, thinking that the Brazilian defender is not a qualified central defender, and Inter Milan should not reuse Lucio.

It's a bit like they will be thrown into limbo if they don't agree with each other, but in fact, how can they know Lucio's ability?

At the same time, the Italian media also believe that Recoba is worthy of a starter, and his strength is no worse than Stankovic.

This is the rhythm of fearing that the world will not be chaotic. They are afraid that they will not be able to live without news.

Once Recoba and Stankovic take the lead, won't the news come?
However, the atmosphere of the team is still good. After returning to Milan, there has been no fluctuation.

An away score of 1 point is still an acceptable result.

In another match in Group A, Chelsea beat Lokomotiv Moscow 1-0 at home. After the first round of the group, they climbed to the first place in the group.

In other groups, Manchester United, Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, Bayern and other strong teams have won by big scores. As a result, Inter Milan directly fell out of the top eight in the odds of winning the Champions League.
