The Glory of the Godfather

The second half of the game has begun.

Benitez stared at the field.

He has his own judgment theory, what kind of tactics Aston Villa adopts at the beginning of the second half of the game, which to some extent represents the purpose and attitude of Aston Villa in the second half of the game.

If Aston Villa starts a strong attack in the second half, it means that Fang Jue is still not giving up.

Although this does not mean that Aston Villa has the ability to comeback, but this is an aggressive tactical attitude.

If Aston Villa did not rush to attack after the start of the second half, but solidly defended.

In Benitez's view, this shows that Fang Jue is very pragmatic.

Fang Jue knew that the game was lost, and he didn't want to think about such a whimsical thing as a comeback. This was to defend firmly, not to lose the ball again, and not to lose too badly.

And if you can score another goal in the second half of the game and only lose two goals, it will look a lot better.

Even if they don't score and lose 1-4, Aston Villa's performance after 0-4 is not too ugly.

In this group, Inter Milan is the strongest. Aston Villa wants to compete for the second place in the group. The goal will not be Inter Milan. acceptable.

Benitez is a delicate and relatively silent coach.

He likes to think about these things, and this is also his coaching experience.

After the start of the second half, Aston Villa did not press out to attack, but based on defense.

This made Benitez breathe a sigh of relief, and he would not admit that he felt afraid of the other party.

It's because, if Aston Villa accepts the result of the loss, then the second half of the game will be relatively mild and flat, and Inter Milan can also play relatively easily.

Currently in the league, Inter Milan only ranks third in the league, and the pressure to compete for the Serie A title is not small.

If this game doesn't require too much effort, Inter Milan can focus on the weekend's league:

Before Benitez came to Inter Milan, Inter Milan had dominated Serie A for many years. After he came, Inter Milan lost the Serie A championship instead. This is unacceptable to the fans and himself.

Of course, if possible, Benitez also hopes that the team can score again.

In the case that Aston Villa has no intention of fighting again, Inter Milan is expected to continue to expand the score.

However, soon, Benitez frowned.

Although Aston Villa did not show aggressiveness on the offensive end, they were extremely tenacious in defense.

Sneijder is the core of Inter Milan's midfield, he was strictly guarded by Aston Villa.

Aston Villa were very smart when defending Sneijder.

They will choose to strangle Sneijder in midfield.

Because fouls in the midfield position are generally not given cards. In addition, the foul is not that malicious.

Its purpose is only to make Sneijder unable to easily control the ball, or to force him to lose possession.

Like pulling a jersey, for example.

Push Ned down.

And even if it was a tackle, it was a relatively clean tackle, without the intention of hurting people.

In addition, Inter Milan has already led by a large score, and the referee will be more tolerant of Aston Villa's fouls.

Therefore, after the start of the second half of the game, as long as Sneijder has the ball, whether it is Clement or Ballack, they will rush up to press and defend him.

Their scrambling is very aggressive, but the scale is well controlled and there is no intention to hurt anyone.

In this way, Sneijder was violated one after another, but the referee only gave verbal warnings and did not intend to play cards.

More than ten minutes into the second half, Sneijder looked very awkward in the midfield. He controlled the rhythm of Inter Milan's offense. He was always fouled here, and the rhythm was disrupted. Inter Milan's offense was intermittent and not coherent. Sex, there is no threat at all.

Sixty minutes into the second half, the score was still four to one, with Inter Milan leading.

Sneijder played awkwardly and was uncomfortable being defended.

Gradually, he himself became a little slack. It was already four to one, the victory was assured, and he was made very uncomfortable by the opponent's rough defense. Therefore, Sneijder also started to fish.

Someone came up and fouled, he fell to the ground and got a free kick.

Although the free kick in the midfield position is not threatening, the clock is ticking and the pace of the game has slowed down.

The rest of Inter's players gradually began to accept this slow pace of the game.

They even had a feeling that Aston Villa had no intention of scoring goals, only thinking about not conceding goals.

It's like two people fighting. After one person is beaten half to death, keep the bottom line. If you don't come and beat me, then everything will be fine. If you continue to beat me, I will fight you desperately.

For example, the Inter Milan players felt the 'tacit understanding' attitude expressed by the opponent.

This is like boiling a frog in warm water.

Sixty-five minutes into the game, the score has not changed. The two sides fought fiercely in the midfield, but overall, the pace of the game was slow.

This also made Lineker in the commentary very dissatisfied, Aston Villa seems to have accepted the score of one to four, and they showed no aggressive spirit.

Aston Villa is already scared of being beaten. Now they are only thinking about not conceding the ball. It's really a dull second half. Italian commentator Gennaro said, his words were impatient, but his tone was passionate, very proud.

...

The sixty-sixth minute of the game.

Sneijder was knocked to the ground again by Ballack near the middle circle.

The referee Skomina still did not play the card, but verbally warned Ballack.

Benitez was very angry at the beginning, thinking that the referee's whistle in the second half of the game was too soft, but at this moment, he was used to it and no longer protested.

At this moment, Benitez is even thinking about the Serie A game at home with Sampdoria on the weekend.

Sampdoria is a traditional strong team in Serie A, a spoiler, and they are not afraid at all when facing strong teams.

This game is not easy to play, Benitez has to plan this game well.

Free kick for Inter Milan.

Zanetti drives the football forward.

The football was pushed out by Senderos.

Milner got ahead of Biabiani and passed the ball to Clement.

Coutinho, a young Brazilian player, wants to come up and break Clement's ball.

But his body and Clement are not a heavyweight at all.

Clement just cut everything off Coutinho from the football.

Then, Clement quickly made a quick pass to Deisler.

Deisler flicked his left foot, adjusted slightly, and avoided Stankovic's grab.

Until this moment, everything has been normal.

Then I saw Deisler swung his right foot and directly passed the football.

The football crossed the halfway line and flew straight towards the Inter half.

Counterattack! Aston Villa's counterattack! After the start of the second half, Howe, who had been languid for more than 20 minutes, suddenly became excited and shouted.

Gareth Bale started from the left side of his own half, quickly rushed across the half, and received a long oblique pass from Deisler to transfer the ball.

Stop him! Inter defender Lucio shouted.

Maicon, who had assisted halftime, was desperately chasing back.

Zanetti also jumped up from the diagonal.

He intends to encircle Maicon and stop Bell.

Then, Zanetti saw that something was wrong, because Maicon was chasing Bell, but his speed obviously couldn't catch up, and he was pulled further and further away by the Welsh kid. Now the distance between the two has been opened by two. Three meters away.

Speed! This is speed, Bell's speed, Maicon can't catch up with him at all!

Too fast! Gareth Bale, he started up almost at the same time as Maicon, and he was still dribbling the ball, but Maicon just couldn't catch him!

The commentary booth was full of excitement. In the dull game, there was a sudden thunderclap, especially this speed duel in the counterattack, which was really exciting and made the heart beat faster.

...

Aston Villa's counterattack is coming!

Seeing that Maicon couldn't catch up, Zanetti gritted his teeth, and the 37-year-old Argentine veteran tried his best to meet him from the side.

He knew that he couldn't even fight for speed, but he would grit his teeth and stop this guy desperately.

At this moment, Bell touched his left foot and accelerated.

He didn't give Zanetti a chance to get close at all, and directly accelerated and dribbled the ball past the Inter Milan captain's side.

Breakthrough!

If you look down from the stands of the Meazza Stadium, you can see a spectacular scene.

Gareth Bale, wearing a red jersey, dribbled the ball forward like lightning.

Behind him is Maicon who is chasing after him.

Beside him is Zanetti who is desperately trying to catch up.

In front of him is Lucio who is obliquely rushing forward to intercept him.

The three Inter Milan defenders intercepted and chased that touch of red from the front, middle and back.

...

The three chased and intercepted, but failed to stop Bell and let him enter the left side of the penalty area.

Entered the restricted area!

Lucio approached.

Bell made a motion to shoot.

Lucio didn't dare to neglect, and rushed to block the shot.

However……

Bale's shot was false and he knocked the football with his right foot.

Take another half step by yourself.

Just to avoid Lucio's tackle.

Then, he didn't give his pursuers any chance.

He raised his head and glanced at Cesar, who was attacking hastily, swung his foot and volleyed vigorously, but the moment his foot touched the football, he changed his volley from the upper corner to a low shot!

The football rolls fast against the turf.

Swipe past Cesar's feet.

The Inter Milan goalkeeper just stretched out his hand subconsciously, and didn't even have time to make a pounce.

The football whized into the net!

In the 67th minute of the game, Gareth Bale was running like lightning. From the siege and interception of Maicon, Bale and Lucio, he rode through the barrier alone and succeeded in a low shot after connecting with many people. Aston Villa 2-4 Inter Milan .
