i'm just a striker

Chapter 346
Before the home game in the league, Inter Milan did not have a good result in the Coppa Italia.

意大利杯1/4决赛第1回合开始首场角逐，国际米兰客场0比0战平乌迪内斯。

Van der Meyde missed several opportunities in this campaign.In the 8th minute, Van der Meyde was brought down in the penalty area, but the referee refused to award a penalty kick.Since then, Van der Meyde failed to succeed in several shots in front of the goal.

In the 79th minute, Nigerian teenager Eliacu replaced Van der Meyde and staged his debut in Inter Milan. Seven days later, the two sides will compete in the second round at the Meazza Stadium.

With the exit of the Champions League and the decline in the league rankings, Inter Milan's emphasis on the Coppa Italia has also increased. Hector Cooper's formation has not changed, but the personnel have been adjusted. Emre, Cannavaro, Vieri stayed at Milan, with Gamarra playing left centre-back.

The head coach of Udinese followed the conservative formation used against Chievo, Fava served as the lone striker, Jankulovski and Jorgensen supported later, and the most interesting thing was the return of Pizarro , the midfielder has settled his contract renewal dispute with the club.

But no matter what, this incident is quite a blow to the morale of Inter Milan. Hector Cooper is under double pressure from the fans and the top management, but in a short period of time, there are intensive games, and there are so many Inter Milan. Forward, Hector Cooper couldn't make up his mind.

What exactly is using Momo?Let Momo maintain his strength and fight to the death in the Champions League. In fact, Momo has no problem playing. After all, there is still time for the national team, the World Cup qualifiers and the Asian Cup, but the problem is Hector- Cooper declined.

意甲第17轮开始6场角逐，罗马主场逆转3比1击败桑普多利亚，以创纪录的42分夺得冬季冠军。托蒂梅开二度，以11球排名射手榜次席。

Juventus beat Siena 4-2 at home in heavy snow, Del Piero scored a hat-trick. ,

Inter Milan had a disastrous week, losing 0-1 at home to underdogs Empoli in the league.Inter Milan's roster confirmed Hector Cooper's pre-match conversation. Vieri has been temporarily frozen. The official reason is that Vieri has a "muscle injury", but no one will believe it. Meda appealed, and the suspension was reduced from 3 games to 2, so this round was able to come back.

In fact, this is not Hector Cooper's original intention, but after the last game of kings, Vieri's attention is increasing day by day, but Vieri can't show the performance that satisfies the fans, so some impulsive fans Some insulting behavior towards Vieri.

This is just like the time of "changing Li Tie" in the history of the national football team. Vieri also encountered such embarrassment. Vieri has repeatedly stated that he has no intention of being the title of king. He also appealed to fans to look at the problem calmly.

But obviously, Vieri's inaction in two consecutive games has made the fans' patience reach the bottom line. Under such circumstances, Vieri will naturally not be convinced. What do you mean? All erased?
A huge banner criticizing the club hangs from an empty stand at the San Siro stadium.It was a lackluster game, with poor ground, slow pace and few chances in front of goal.

I have to explain here that the poor San Siro stadium is really not the fault of Inter Milan. The main reason is that both Inter Milan and AC Milan share a home court. In the case of frequent games, maintenance is naturally quite difficult.

In this game, Vieri didn't even sit on the bench, but will Inter Milan's offensive improve?In fact, as far as Momo is concerned, Hector Cooper has no real talent in offense, and the setting for Momo is to play freely.

And because of Mo Mo's imagination and positioning problems, he has been able to find the most suitable opportunity to make shots, but other Inter Milan players are different. They need detailed instructions from the head coach, but the head coach does not. Did not clearly tell them what to do.

At the beginning of the game, the game has been quite boring. It was not until the 12th minute that Inter Milan got a good chance.

Van der Meyde attracted a cross from a defender on the left, and Almeida passed it to his partner Cruise, who stopped the ball 8 meters in front of the goal and shot, but the ball slightly rubbed against the opponent's defender and went higher.Empoli also had a chance to score. Toldo missed a shot from Rocky and Di Natale missed the shot.

Empoli's Di Natale is a seriously underestimated player even in later generations, and in this game, he will be the key player for Empoli's victory.

As the game progressed slowly, Inter Milan gradually increased the pressure on Empoli. After all, it was at their home court, and Inter Milan still hoped to win.

In the 24th minute, Emre and Cruise made a clever two-for-one cooperation, but his oblique shot missed the left post.After that, Empoli made a clearance error, Zanetti's shot was blocked, and Van der Meyde's supplementary shot was resolved by the goalkeeper.

At this time, the Inter Milan fans in the stands couldn't help but start to get restless. This ability to seize opportunities is really uncomfortable!As long as they can seize an opportunity and score once, Inter Milan will be able to take the lead!

The fans of Inter Milan began to miss Momo extremely, they began to shout Momo's name on the sidelines, but Momo didn't even make the substitute list, how could he have the opportunity to play the game?
In the 51st minute, Almeida made a pass from the right, and Martins, who was unmarked, succeeded in anti-offside, but the ball was deflected.In the 53rd minute, Cruise made a pass from the right, and Martins headed the ball high again.After that, Emre's angry shot from outside the penalty area stuck to the goal post, which shocked the goalkeeper Butch into a cold sweat.

In the 62nd minute, Emre shoveled Vannucci and was sentenced to a foul. He received a yellow card to the referee Paparesta.

Like Almeida, Emre's bad temper hurt Inter Milan, Zahector Cooper replaced Adani with Brechet, and Farinos replaced Van der Meyde.Empoli, who played more and played less, greatly increased his confidence, and Di Natale's 2 attacks were obliterated by suspicious offside penalties.Afterwards, his volley from a tight angle slid out of the far post.

Some Inter fans began to leave early to express their protest.

In the 84th minute, Di Natale broke into the left side of the penalty area and hit the crossbar with a right foot shot 16 meters in front of the goal, but Inter Milan did not escape the catastrophe.In stoppage time, Brechet made an empty pass when blocking Tavano from the left side. Tavano passed the ball across the penalty area. .This is a historic victory. Empoli has never scored a point against Inter Milan in an away game before.

After the game, the fans of Inter Milan started a grand protest. They really couldn’t believe that this was the Inter Milan they loved and supported, but if at this time, they could compare with the Inter Milan that had never even played in the Champions League group stage in the original history. Milan's words, then maybe they will be satisfied.
