Kudinho's goal brought confidence and courage to the second generation of Inter Milan players. After Manchester United kicked off in the middle circle, Inter Milan players finally changed their original prudence and conservatism and began to attack Manchester United's penalty area.
Inter Milan, who were suppressed by united in the first half, only shot once, but they also expended a lot of physical energy. After 70 minutes, they couldn't suppress Inter Milan. Now we can see that Inter Milan's morale is booming and their confidence is sufficient. United are unwilling to face the edge of inter and start to shrink their defense.
After Manchester United played Park Ji Xing and Anderson, there are three players in the midfield who can run and fight. Coupled with Rooney's active defense, it is very difficult for Inter Milan to play in the middle of Manchester United. They can only find breakthrough opportunities from two sides.
Before that, inter played a little conservative, while Manchester United's main offensive was on the wing. Maicon and Chivu, including Zanetti in the second half, were tired of defending and didn't have many assists.
Now Manchester United's strategic retreat, Maicon and Zanetti finally have a place to play, began to press on frequently, to attack Manchester United's restricted area.
In the 84th minute of the match, Maicon came down from the side and faced Evra's pressing. Maicon shook left and buckled to break through the bottom, but Evra was very close to him and didn't give Maicon the chance to break through.
Maicon but Maicon suddenly found that the team's main defender Lucio quickly inserted.
Maicon knows Lucio's ability, and if Lucio is able to play with the ball as usual, he will hopefully break United's intensive defense.
Maicon cross, found a fast forward central defender Lucio.
Lucio strides forward, Anderson's interception is swayed by Lucio, and Smalling rushes to the top. Rooney is worried that Smalling can't prevent Lucio, so he rushes to assist in the defense.
Lucio is also a brave man with excellent skills. Smalling and Rooney came to defend him together. He didn't pass the ball either. Instead, he took the ball and walked from Smalling's side to the side.
Smolin didn't catch up. Lucio took two steps in a row and shot directly.
Lucio doesn't care about the angle. He just shoots hard at the goal.
Van der Sar flew to save, trying to throw the ball to the side, but he didn't touch it. The ball bounced up and hit him in the face.
Eto'o was ready to make up his shot when Lucio was shooting. Eto'o started very fast. Vidic, who had been following Eto'o, slowed down a step and could only watch Eto'o extend his foot to shovel the ball to the goal.
Eto'o watched the ball roll towards the goal and raised his hands to celebrate, but just then a red figure rushed to the penalty area and kicked the ball off the goal line.
"Not even in?"
"It's not going in!"
"Gao Xiaodong came in time!"
"Is that the will of heaven?"
……
The Inter fans in the stands groaned and even resented.
"Gao Xiaodong!" Eto'o saw that his must goal was kicked out by Gao Xiaodong. He was so angry that he yelled at Gao Xiaodong, "you are such a jerk! When you finish your life, you score
Inter's attack scared Ferguson out in a cold sweat. He didn't dare to neglect it. He quickly let Hernandez, the pea, play to replace Dimitar Berbatov, the Indian center.
Inter coach Leonardo saw that the ball was about to score, and was released by Gao Xiaodong. He was impatient and angry, and smashed the mineral water bottle on the ground.
Inter are a little short of equalizing the score. There is still a place for Inter to change. If we change another attacking player, maybe we can perform a miracle at the last moment.
But as soon as Leonardo looked at the bench, there was only one Suazo. Leonardo simply gave up the substitution and played to the end with the players on the field.
Ferguson's last substitution is very suitable. Today, in order to revenge Inter Milan, Berbatov really ran. When he left the field, he had already run 10000 meters. This is a great number. Two years after he came to Manchester United, Berbatov really didn't run to this number in one game.
But because of the front run, before Ferguson replaced Berbatov, Berbatov had almost become a tree in the front court, not moving.
Hernandez is young, fast and powerful. He keeps running back and forth in Inter's defence line, and sometimes he can retreat back to midfield to help Manchester United defend.
What's more, Hernandez is fast. Once he is defeated by Hernandez, he will succeed in offside and form a chance to go to the party alone. Neither Nokia nor Lucio can catch up.
At first, Lucio didn't care much. He was determined to move forward and try to level the score for Inter.
However, Hernandez played less than two minutes. Gao Xiaodong found Wayne Rooney from the middle distance. Wayne Rooney stopped the ball from the side and pushed his foot to the front of the penalty area, behind the defender.
Hernandez started running to the penalty area when Rooney passed the ball.
Lucio and La Nokia who can not keep up, Lucio helpless, had to reach out from behind Hernandez.
Referee casai showed Lucio a yellow card and gave Manchester United a dangerous free kick.Gao Xiaodong took the free kick and inter put out a long wall to prevent Gao Xiaodong from shooting directly.
The ball was too close to the goal, and there was no room for it to fall. Gao Xiaodong had to shoot vigorously, but the ball bounced out on the wall.
Although Manchester United didn't score in this counterattack, it brought great threat to Inter Milan. Then Lucio didn't dare to attack easily. He and La Nuoji stayed on the side of Hernandez to prevent Manchester United from playing behind them.
As the match passed, inter tried to attack Manchester United's penalty area. However, Manchester United's air defense ability was excellent, but Inter didn't have the height. The cross had no effect on Manchester United.
Inter want to penetrate into the front of Manchester United's penalty area, but Ferguson is on Anderson, Park Ji Xing and Gao Xiaodong, who are good at running and fighting. They are not tall, but they are very active. It is very difficult for Inter to cooperate in front of them.
Inter finally got the absolute ball right, but almost no chance to shoot.
After the game entered injury time, inter had no confidence and patience to level. The players began to play long-range shots or long passes at the front of the penalty area frequently.
There are Eto'o and Pandev on the forward line. The long pass is not a threat to Inter.
And every counterattack of Inter Milan can form a huge threat. If the referee CASSAY didn't show mercy, Lucio's foul on Nani in the second minute of make-up time might have been sent off with the second yellow card.
There were four minutes in stoppage time. By the second minute, the fans of Inter Milan in the stands were desperate and left one after another. Even president Moratti left ahead of time.
Four minutes after stoppage time, referee casai also gave inter an opportunity to attack, but Inter still didn't catch the goal, and finally could only accept the fate of falling behind at home.
