After Stankovic scored, inter and Dynamo Kiev returned to the same starting line.
Not only the score is the same, but also the psychology of both sides are equally matched. Inter's morale was greatly boosted after the goal, while Dynamo Kiev's goal was leveled at the beginning and they were 30 minutes ahead. They overcame their fear and their confidence was greatly increased.
The game started again. Inter wanted to reverse the score in the last 15 minutes of the first half.
Dynamo Kiev also did not panic, under the leadership of Shevchenko and Milevsky firmly defend the counterattack, patiently nuclear Inter.
Although Inter's attack is much better than before, Dynamo Kiev is also a regular in the Champions League. He is strong, fast and has good tactical quality. In addition to Gao Xiaodong's sudden attack on the last goal, he also disrupted Dynamo Kiev's defense because of Lucio's sudden advance. There was no unexpected attack. Inter won't be able to make a breakthrough for a long time It is not easy for the players who want to break Dynamo Kiev.
The game lasted more than ten minutes in a tense and fierce rhythm, and the first half was about to end in a twinkling of an eye. At this time, Dynamo Kiev got a corner.
Dynamo Kiev is also a rookie. Seeing that Inter Milan may not have time to fight back, they reversed their previous cautious and conservative attitude. Players who are good at attacking all go up to grab points, leaving only three players behind.
When Malange kicks out a corner, Milevsky suddenly plunges in the front spot to head the ball and ferry back. This is a very common corner tactics. The players of Inter Milan are well prepared for it. There are people defending at the front, middle and back points. Lucio is targeting the arrow character Shevchenko of the opponent.
Shevchenko is ready to grab the back point, but Lucio card is in front of Shevchenko. Lucio is very afraid of Shevchenko. He dare not give the ball to the back, take off and fight for the top. He wants to throw the ball out of the bottom line with a lion's head. But in a hurry, Lucio's judgment of the ball's landing point is a bit wrong. Before he touches the ball, the ball flies out and goes straight The back corner of the goal.
Don't say Lucio is only four or five meters away from the goal. Even if he is a little further away, goalkeeper Cesar doesn't have time to react. Who can think of his centre back attacking his goal.
The ball flew into the net without any suspense, 2-1. At the end of the first half, Dynamo Kiev unexpectedly took the lead again.
After the goal, the fans of Inter Milan were stunned. They didn't expect that there was an own goal at the last moment. Many fans stormed the seats and made rude remarks.
The players of Inter Milan are also very shocked and frustrated. At this time, setting up an own goal has a great impact on the morale. The first half will be over soon, and there are only one or two minutes left. It's a dog's day.
Jose is very angry, but Lucio is his name, he can not get angry, angry turned back to the dressing room.
On the other side, the dynamo in Kiev couldn't believe their eyes. They celebrated wildly, shouting God bless, as if they had won.
After Lucio scored the own goal, there was only one or two minutes left. The players of Inter Milan were depressed and anxious, and failed to organize any effective attack. After a few waves of painless attack, the referee Atkinson blew the whistle at the end of the first half. The players of Inter Milan could only hate to go back to the dressing room and wait for the second half.
Inter are very depressed when they walk into the dressing room. No one is willing to talk. Even Gao Xiaodong, who always likes to laugh, has a face.
Jose is standing at the door of the dressing room, waiting for the players to come in.
Lucio is a man. After entering the dressing room, he apologized to Jose and his teammates. "Today, I'm sorry for you. I'm sorry for your efforts. I'm sorry, coach."
The players didn't speak.
"Lucio, you don't have to apologize. The mistake was part of the guard's work. Although you scored an own goal, you also had several successful breakouts and assists. If you need to apologize, then everyone should apologize because you didn't play well in the first half," he said slowly
There was still silence in the dressing room.
"We just played well in some moments, but in 45 minutes Dynamo Kiev played more like the Serie A champions and the European giants," he continued
There was some noise in the dressing room and some old players obviously didn't agree with that.
"At Inter, everyone likes to talk about tactics and people," he continued. But what I want to say is men, team, character and personality. Today, I want to tell you not to cry after the game, if you want to do something, do it on the court. That's where you leave everything. As men, you have to leave the stadium with a clear conscience and say: we have done everything we can, this is the Champions League! This is the highest level arena in the world. You should be like beasts, leaving your nails, teeth, heart and everything on the court. You should fight with heart, emotion, desire and unity! If you don't have this fighting spirit and regard yourself as a big family or a star, you should not stay on the pitch. The stand is the right place for you. “With that, he turned and left the dressing room for the players to reflect on themselves.
As soon as he left, Eto'o yelled: "yes, it needs fighting spirit. It needs to be like a fighter."
Cambiasso can't stand Eto'o pretending to be the boss of the dressing room. He retorted: "everyone is fighting when they don't fight. The opponents are all in the restricted area. There is no place to fight if they want to fight."
Gao Xiaodong said: "whether we are fighting or not depends on who we are compared with. Compared with Dynamo Kiev, we are not as good as they can fight."
Zanetti said: "the coach is right, we should do our best, don't wait for the end of the mountain and the water to do our best."
Maicon also spoke on behalf of the Brazilian Gang, "yes! It's much easier to compete in meiacha than in Kiev. We don't want to place our hopes on the next and the next
Gao Xiaodong said: "let's not put our hopes on the opponent's losing. We can't win and the opponent can't push us into the knockout."
Materazzi said: "isn't that intensive defense? It's not like I haven't experienced it before. Hit them with a header! If we shoot them with a long-range shot, we don't believe they are a wall of iron. "
"Yes! I'll shoot long-range with Xiao Dong! " Stankovich said.
Lucio said: "I'm fighting for the header with Samuel and you'll make up for me."
……
Everyone said a word, I finally agreed, decided to fight with the opponent in the second half.
