Chapter 192 I am a striker
"Everyone, after a 15-minute intermission, the two teams returned to the stadium to start the second half of the game. Inter Milan did not make personnel adjustments, while Schalke 04's side was as predicted by Director Zhang. Rutten Staff adjustments were made in the midfield, and Rakitic replaced Westman!" Sports Station He Wei started the second half of the commentary.
After the start of the second half, Schalke 04's formation was still 433, but due to the retreat of Zhang Yuan and Farfan, their midfield was more like 451.
This change also made them no longer completely subject to Inter Milan in midfield control like in the first half, and began to have the opportunity to control the ball and launch an attack.
Less than 5 minutes after Rakitic came on the field, he sent a threatening over-the-top ball. Kuranyi succeeded in countering offside, but the angle was too small. Cesar blocked the final strong shot from the bottom line!
The set-piece Schalke 04 did not have an advantage in front of Inter Milan. The corner kick was taken and was pushed out of the penalty area by Materazzi. Balotelli got the ball. This was a good opportunity to counterattack.
However, Jones cleverly pulled Balotelli down. The referee showed Jones a yellow card. Balotelli sat on the ground and chattered. According to his opinion, Jones should be given a red card, but everyone knew it was impossible.
Zhang Yuan stretched out his hand to pull Balotelli, "Get out of here, boy, don't play dead here!"
"You're just pretending to be dead! If the number 13 didn't pull me down, I should have scored! You should thank him!" Balotelli said angrily.
"I really appreciate him, he did a great job!" Zhang Yuan said deliberately.
With Zhang Yuan's strength, Balotelli stood up and ran forward chattering, leaving Zhang Yuan behind.
But this attack was not fruitless. Within a few minutes, Materazzi actually asked to leave the field. It turned out that he sprained his foot when he made a clearance just now, and he couldn't hold on now.
Mourinho can only replace Burdisso, this adjustment is not what he intended to do, Cordoba and Burdisso are not tall, Cordoba is only 1.7 meters, and Burdisso is only 1.8 meters In the early days, both of them belonged to the kind of central defenders who turned quickly, positioned accurately, and had good predictions, but their height determined their inherent disadvantages in fighting for the top.
The pairing of Cordoba and Materazzi is the best, taking into account the speed and height of the central defender. There are many short central defenders in football, but the short ones are paired with a relatively taller one. A central defender partner, which can complement each other.
Barcelona's central defender combination is two short central defenders, but they also have inherent disadvantages in competing for headers. This is a fact.
Mourinho is worried that Zhang Yuan and Farfan will squeeze into the middle penalty area at the same time. These two players are not low in height and relatively strong in body. Don't look at Zhang Yuan's physical strength when he arrived in Italy, but now it is two years later. He also has a strong impact as a center.
Three people attack two short central defenders at the same time. Mourinho doesn't think his defense is safe, but he has no extra way. Inter Milan's central defender configuration is like this, and Cordoba is not in his mind. The main force, the main configuration is Samuel partner Materazzi.
Materazzi was injured and Rutten didn't even realize it was an opportunity, but someone on the field realized that this might be a good opportunity.
This person is Zhang Yuan. Zhang Yuan felt that the height of Inter Milan's defense dropped a lot when Materazzi stepped off the field.
He feels that he can rush into the penalty area. He knows Cordoba and Burdisso very well, and he feels that with his current height and strength, he can completely fight against them.
Zhang Yuan started his own random running mode again, going to the defense zone of Maicon, then rushing to the defense zone of Cambiasso, responding to the midfielder Rakitic, and walking in the direction of Cordoba in the penalty area.
The area defense arranged by Mourinho is the responsibility of others outside the Maicon area, Cambiasso's task in the midfield, and Cordoba's responsibility in the penalty area.
After running for a while, Maikong thought that Zhang Yuan didn't make much progress in the Bundesliga, just like before, he only made breakthroughs, his moves were messy, and most of the time his work was useless.
He couldn't help but relax his vigilance. Since Zhang Yuan couldn't do it, he started to move forward again. During this period of time, Inter Milan's offense was not very smooth. The two side assists failed to advance, and the pressure on Schalke 04 was not enough.
Naturally, Maicon still hoped that he could attack the opponent's wing hard when he went up. He found that Zhang Yuan rarely returned to defense in the second half.
Zhang Yuan didn't wait long. In the 64th minute, Inter Milan's attack failed and was cleared by Bolton. Jones and Stankovic were fighting for the ball. Stankovic had already touched the ball first, but Jones was very ruthless. Without worrying that he had already received a yellow card, he tackled the ball with his foot, lay on the ground, and successfully tackled the ball to Rakitic. Zhang Yuan on the wing, after Zhang Yuan got the ball, Cordoba quickly posted it.
Cordoba is very courageous, and besides, he is also a defender with a relatively strong ability to attack, but Zhang Yuan did not give him a chance, but kicked the ball, a long pass from the right, and hit behind Zanetti, Farr Fan tried his best to run forward.
Zanetti really couldn't keep up with his speed. Kuranyi, Burdisso, Cordoba, Zhang Yuan, and Cambiasso all walked quickly into the penalty area.
Zanetti rushes very hard, Zhang Yuan's ball is fast, Farfan wants to stop the ball, Zanetti is confident that he can intercept the ball, Farfan does not stop the ball but passes directly, so it is difficult for him to predict himself Can his legs block his pass?
Knowing that Zanetti was chasing him from behind and not far away, Farfan felt that he was still a little timid and didn't dare to stop the ball, so he kicked up and passed directly. In order to prevent Zanetti from flying to intercept him, he held the ball and passed it High and far away.
Farfan's pass was not of high quality, and there were few outflankers in the middle. He didn't place well and went straight to the back post.
Kuranyi from the previous point had no choice, he was already scolding Farfan in his heart, "Damn him, idiot, the pass is too bad!"
But he didn't see Zhang Yuan who was behind the point. Zhang Yuan rushed towards the landing point, and Cambiasso and Cordoba also rushed over after him, which made Cambiasso and Cordoba unacceptable. It's because Zhang Yuan's impact is too strong now.
Taking off, Cambiasso and Cordoba double-teamed and couldn't deform Zhang Yuan, who had already picked up speed.
The waist exerted strength, the header was powerful and heavy, and Cesar flew forward. In fact, he didn't even touch the ball, and the ball fell into the net.
Inter Milan players know Zhang Yuan well. Zhang Yuan used to have obvious advantages, but also obvious shortcomings. For example, heading is definitely not his strong point. He used to be in Inter Milan, and it can even be said to be very bad.
Cordoba and Cambiasso were a little fluke when defending, thinking that it would not be easy to score goals with Zhang Yuan's header skills, but they forgot the saying, don't look at it for three days, now Zhang Yuan's strength, The running and jumping surprised them.
As for Maicon, he is not mainly responsible, but it was he who advanced this time that caused Cambiasso to fail to block Zhang Yuan's pass alone. If he followed Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan would not be able to catch the ball so easily It was also reported that a wide range of kicks had been transferred.
After Zhang Yuan scored a goal, he neither picked up the ball nor celebrated. His teammates came forward to celebrate, and he also signaled to stop. This is out of respect for his old club.
Inter Milan was his first stop in the first division, and Inter Milan gave him a lot of help and a good salary. He couldn't help but be grateful for these, so he didn't celebrate after this goal.
Meazza fans saw Zhang Yuan's move and applauded him. Zhang Yuan's trajectory in Inter Milan, from the genius in the fans' minds at the beginning of the transfer, to the final passer-by, remained in the fans' minds. How should I put it in my impression, there are very few people who can remember him deeply, and the fans are forgetful, but this goal reminds everyone, "Oh, this is the genius of our team before. It's a pity. Erke 04!"
Balotelli gritted his teeth, this kid actually scored a goal, am I going to lose?Don’t think that Zhang Yuan is such a good person. On the way back to his own half, Zhang Yuan deliberately ran to Balotelli’s side and said, “Hey, Mario, I’m a striker. I scored first! You’re also a striker, but it looks like Someone is going to treat me!"
Zhang Yuan is very insidious. He and Balotelli are very good friends. He knows that Balotelli actually has the common problem of young people and cannot be stimulated. Now Balotelli will definitely increase his shots in the frontcourt. Fighting alone, Zhang Yuan just waited for Balotelli to spoil a pot of soup with a rat droppings, then maybe Schalke 04 would still have a chance!
