Chapter 768 Champions League Final (7)
Little Mancini was frightened, but Vardy had no intention of dealing with him.
The difficulty of this game exceeded Vardy's imagination. The main reason was that he did not expect that Barcelona would dare to risk the world's worst and just turn their feet in the backcourt in this way to kill the game.
You should know that the two sides are still tied now, so Barcelona dares to do this unscrupulously. Once Barcelona leads, Inter Milan will probably not think about touching the ball again.
Obviously, Mourinho and Valdi have exactly the same idea, and Mourinho is really afraid of Barcelona's playing style.
The transmission and control are not scary, what is scary is your shameless transmission and control.
"At any time in the second half, you must focus more on defense. Once you fall behind, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
"Even if Barcelona just doesn't attack, the defense must be careful!"
"Even if you don't score, you must not concede the ball!"
Mourinho kept emphasizing defense, which is actually rare.
Although Mourinho is a utilitarian coach, defense has been deeply rooted in the team he coaches, and there is no need to emphasize that players always know what to do.
But this time it was different. Even Mourinho became different from usual. No one could remain calm in the face of the Champions League trophy.
When he walked into the stadium in the second half, Vardy clearly felt that the Barcelona players became different from the first half. Although he couldn't tell where it was, he felt this vaguely, which made Vardy even more alert.
Inter Milan, who kicked off in the second half, did not directly open the line and attack Barcelona's defense line. Mourinho's repeated reminders let the players know that this is definitely not the time to be willful, so they also began to pass the downward foot in the midfield and backcourt, looking for the safest opportunity.
However, at this time, the style of the entire team changed. Amid the shouts of Barcelona fans in the stands, the entire Barcelona team's formation was generally forward, and the army was generally pressing to the halftime of Inter Milan.
Barcelona attacked!
This is something that no one expected. Compared with Barcelona's performance in the first half, it gives people the feeling that the radical Barcelona may have taken the wrong medicine during the intermission.
However, facing Barcelona, which is fighting like a wolf and a tiger, Inter Milan has not lost its position. Barcelona has never been a team that is good at defense. This level of pressing, let alone in the Premier League, is not considered to be in the Serie A.
Driven by Cambiaso and Sneider, Inter Milan scored a goal through the half with two passes. The quick and concise transmission was exactly the effect pursued in Inter Milan's offense.
Stankovic received the ball from the right and tried to go to the middle, but suddenly transferred the ball to Macon, who was on the side, and Barcelona's defense on the side suddenly became empty.
Maikon dribbled the ball at high speed along the wing, and the offensive and defensive players from the two teams began to move along this line, as if they were scanning waves across the turf.
At the 45-degree angle, Mancini encountered the obstacle, and after doing a few fake moves on the spot and not shaking away the opponent, he simply took the foot and made a cross.
When Mancini stopped, the Barcelona players around him also survived, and Vardy continued to move forward. There was no doubt that he was in an offside position.
He screamed in secretly, and Vardy quickly retreated a few steps, but before he could run out of the offside position, Little Mancini's cross had already arrived.
The Barcelona defender did not move at all. Vardy pushed the ball weakly, pushed the ball towards Barcelona's goal, and crossed Valdes' ten fingers.
The Barcelona players raised their hands excitedly and signaled that the referee Vardy was offside first. The flag in the linebacker's hand was so cool that the referee did not hesitate at all.
The goal is invalid!
Vardy walked back in disappointment, not even bothering to argue with the referee, knowing that it is pointless to do so.
However, he began to become alert. He did not expect that Barcelona would actually set up offside traps.
The army pressed on the offensive, and the defense relied on offside traps, so Barcelona had a good idea.
Vardy rarely has offside. He is not a man like Inzaghi who lives on the offside line. He prefers to penetrate the opponent's defense rather than waiting for his teammates to feed the ball to his mouth, so there are not many offside times.
It is precisely because of the few offsides that Vardy almost forgot that there is still this rule. It seems that we should pay more attention to the next step. Since the offside trap is effective, Barcelona will never use it once.
After Barcelona kicked off, they once again put up a big push. After midfield adjustment, Barcelona's passing rhythm changed significantly from before. Even though the error rate was increased by speeding up the passing speed, Barcelona felt a little desperate.
It seemed that the situation suddenly became fierce. The proactive Barcelona could pose a threat to Inter Milan's defense line, and the number of mistakes also gave Inter Milan more opportunities for fast breaks, and the two teams began to face more goals directly.
In the 51st minute of the second half, Barcelona made a series of exciting cooperation in the frontcourt of Inter Milan, and the quick pass of more than 15 feet directly broke through Inter Milan's defense line. Unfortunately, Henry was cut in the left side by Samuel, and the ball was not able to finally form a shot;
In the 54th minute, Xiaobai's pass to Messi made a mistake and was cut off by Maxwell. Inter Milan launched a fast counterattack. Sneider leaned against two opponents in the midfield and staggered to drive the ball, but it didn't go to the end. Finally, he passed a coquettish straight pass.
When Vardy started, he clearly felt that Yaya Toure was running forward, and when he received the pass, he turned around and formed a single-strike force.
But before Vardy stepped onto the Hot Wheels and shot Bartha, the referee's whistle rang.
Needless to say, looking at the shaking flag of the borderman, Vardy knew that he was blown offside again.
Unlike just now, Vardy felt that he had not offside this time.
So, the indignant Vardy and Inter Milan players gathered around and found the referee to argue.
At this time, the TV broadcasting screen had started to play slow-motion replay, and the director used a straight line to pull out the position between Vardy and Yaya Toure.
The moment Sneijder passed the ball, the two were on the same level. Even if the principle of encouraging attack was not considered, Vardy would never be offside.
However, the referee on the court could not see the slow-motion replay. Faced with the protests of Inter Milan players, the referee pressed down hard and even gave the excited Macon a yellow card.
Inter Milan players are angry at the exodus, but as long as the referee is still standing on the court for a minute, he is the God on the court, able to dominate everything, and no one can change his judgment.
Even if I could go to cause trouble after the game, it was too late by then.
