Chapter 434: No. 1 in Asia? Non-existent
Capello finally remembered Emerson on the bench. He didn't want to let Emerson rest below anymore, and Thomassi was not enough to keep him competent for that position.
So he walked to the bench and asked Emerson to start warming up, although the first half of the game was not over yet.
Emerson himself was a little surprised. He was worried that he would not be able to play the game just now. Now it seems that he will have at least 45 minutes of playing time. He quickly took off his coat and warmed up on the sidelines. He couldn't wait to stand on the court to fight Zheng Zhi.
Then, the behind Roma team played a little chaotic. They were eager to equalize the score and tried to move the formation forward again, but Inter Milan's defense was quite tough and they did not give up space at all. The first defensive line formed by Zheng Zhi, Zanetti and Dibiagio made Roma's midfield very uncomfortable. In terms of defense, they were all the best. For Roma team, Toti is the offensive organizer. Candela, Tomasi and Zanetti are all engineers, and the offensive was not very helpful to Toti. When Toti was restricted by Zheng Zhi, their best way was to divide the ball to Kafu on the right. Kafu on the right became the most important corridor for Roma's offense.
This was too obvious. Dibiagio and Grasco were staring at him here, suppressing Kafu's offensive space to the extreme. Dibiagio almost kept his guard close to him, and Grasco behind him was not far away. Kafu is not a real magician, and he can drive the ball over two people every time. Even if he succeeded, Inter Milan had already set up a defense line in the middle and stared Batistuta and Delvicio to death.
call,
call,
call,
Toti ran much harder than usual, but he was missing and could not get rid of Zheng Zhi behind him. Zheng Zhi followed him like a shadow, almost inseparable. This made him very uncomfortable. Although he had raised his pace, Zheng Zhi's rhythm was always consistent.
Too difficult to deal with.
Every time he got the ball, Totti thought about killing Zheng Zhi, but hesitated every time, thinking that the ball would be cut off by him. As the game progressed, this feeling would become stronger and stronger.
There is no confidence before. Even Davis of Juventus, he is very calm, but facing Zheng Zhi, this calm, silent and powerful man is really different.
Da ~
Tomasi once again sent the ball to Toti's feet. With his back to Zheng Zhi, he steadily protected the ball with his body, pulled the ball to the right and turned around, and then kicked it back again to try to get rid of Zheng Zhi, but once again found that Zheng Zhi's body blocked his way. There was no way, he could only pull the ball back again, and finally kicked the ball back to Tomasi. When Tomasi saw that Toti could not get rid of Zheng Zhi, he immediately divided the side to Candela on the left, but the ball's strength was reduced, or was Sanetti's running speed really too fast? In that moment, Sanetti fell to the ground and slipped the ball before Candela!
After the heroic Sanetti got up, he immediately passed the ball directly to Pirlo in front. Pirlo flicked his back and stopped the ball, turned left and just let the ball go. Zanetti was easily thrown away, and then watched Pirlo pass the ball to Recoba who actively came back to pick up.
After removing the ball, Recoba adjusted two consecutive steps and suddenly shot with his left foot!
Buzz ~
32 meters away, a spinning ball rolled up the green grass, and quickly landed in a graceful arc into the Roma's penalty area, heading towards the lower left of the goal.
Standing at the front door, Dimasi was quite focused, moved a quick step, and then rushed towards the ball! He slapped the ball with his left hand again, but the ball still got into the net!
"The ball has entered!"
"The ball has entered!"
"The ball has entered!"
"Chinese boy Recoba!"
"Oh hehehehe, 3:1, Inter Milan took a two-goal lead in the 43rd minute. Recoba rewrote the score. I didn't expect it, I really thought it was a close match, but now it's less than halftime, and the score has been widened by two goals."
"Will Rome be massacred in Meachah today?"
"Wolf-slaying!"
"Inter Milan's first three league opponents were slaughtered, and Roma's fate may be tragic today. Even if they have the god of war Batistuta, Roman prince Toti, and the best right-back in the world, they cannot win the initiative in front of the powerful Inter Milan."
"Coach Zhang, have you noticed that Inter Milan scored goals in every game in the last moment of the first half this season!"
"Hehe, yes, I have also noticed that so far, but to be more precise, there were such goals in the games Zheng Zhi participated in. There were no two games in the Champions League qualifiers before." Zhang Lu's data was more accurate.
Recoba's goal was so fatal that it instantly caused the morale of the entire Roma team to fall to the bottom. Even one goal behind was disappointed and two goals behind? It was like it had fallen into hell, and it was too difficult to climb up again. Even Batistuta couldn't help but shake his head in front and expressed his dissatisfaction with the team's defense.
This time, Tomasi couldn't get rid of the ball because of his pass mistake, and then everything that happened later came.
Capello on the coach's seat gritted his teeth. He really wanted to peel Thomassi apart. Can you just hold on for a few minutes? Such passes can cause mistakes, what should I say? I should have asked Emerson to replace him immediately! Hesitation is indeed a killing...
There is also Totti. Has he ever made a breakthrough in the first half? He was stared at by the Chinese and did not dare to make any moves. He was so disappointed.
Can……
Do I really want to let Nakada Hideho appear so early?
Capello's mind was full of thoughts and a little confused. The defense was not good, and the attack was not good. The defense was fine. He had decided to let Emerson play during the halftime break. As for the attack? He had not made the right idea yet. When would Totti come off? What if Totti's form comes out in the second half? He was obsessed with Totti, and he believed that geniuses would always perform unexpectedly and bring surprises...
In fact, it's not just Capello, but the whole of Italy. They always like the inspiration of talented players, whether it's Totti, Pierro, or Roberto Baggio.
The referee's whistle sounded, and the first half finally ended. Capello walked into the player's passage in a depressed mood, almost colliding with the proud Inter Milan coach Mourinho. Both of them were anxious to return to the locker room, but the situation they faced was completely different, one in the sky and the other underground, which was a world of difference.
“lo sai, per un gol(you know, to score a goal),”
“io darei vita… mia vita(I have dedicated my life--my life!),”
“che in fondo lo so,”
“Sara una partita infinita, (I understand that until the end of my life, there will be a competition that will never stop),”
...
Inter Milan's team song Pazza Inter sounded wildly at the Meazza Stadium, and the audience joined the chorus. The momentum was amazing. Roman fans could only sit anxiously, but they could not tolerate the annoying songs. They did not like to listen to any opponent's songs. They just wanted to sing "ra ra", which was the most beautiful song in the world.
In the locker room, Capello was roaring, his open mouth could be stuffed into two fists at the same time. Of course, he was angry and furious, and even wanted to smash the glasses hanging on his nose.
Tomasi, Dimasi, Zanetti, Candela were scolded by him, but he did not scold Tomasi...
No one dared to say anything, no one dared to fight against this legendary champion coach, who is now one of the greatest coaches in the world, a champion coach who has been successful in both AC Milan and Real Madrid.
“It’s not scary to fall behind,”
"What's scary is your fighting attitude!"
"I can't see that you have the determination to win the game. We are completely at a disadvantage in the confrontation. The offense failed to provide support to the striker, and the defense did not hold them! If you like to watch Inter dominate the top of the standings and then return to Rome with a shameful defeat, then congratulations, you are about to do it!"
"but,"
"Rome will not accept such a loser! Shame! This is a shame!"
Capello kept roaring, his angry eyes swept across everyone's faces one by one, and many people couldn't help but lower their heads, and then Capello saw Emerson and Hideho Nakada.
"You guys are so fucked that you haven't gotten out and warmed up. Do you have to wait until the end of the second half?!"
Emerson and Nakada Eiju were both startled and ran away happily, hoping to run to the court now, the locker room was about to explode.
...
...
On the other side, Mourinho began to draw on the tactical board after entering the locker room. After achieving a 3:1 score, he began to think about the tactics in the second half. At this moment, he just wanted to arrange the tactics in his mind to the players. He had nothing to do with the performance of each player in the first half, but there were flaws in defense.
But the lead of two goals did not make him feel fluttery, and he would not think that the team had won the victory in less than the last second.
So when he finished setting up the tactics, he had a stern face.
"Forgot the first half,"
"Forgot the score that led by two goals,"
"The opponent is Rome, what are they? They are wolf, red wolf,"
"They have the ability to score two goals in the second half, and we are not sure of winning. If we think we are sure to win, then it's the beginning of the nightmare."
"Don't underestimate them, they are competitors to win the championship."
"So, don't let them expose their fangs. As long as they are exposed, we must pull it out hard."
"We are hunters holding guns. When the prey appears, we will give them a fatal blow."
"We need to score a goal!"
...
...
Nakada Hidesu and Emerson appeared first on the court, and the two were passing the ball to each other, which made the Japanese fans in the stands scream.
"Nakata,"
"Come on Nakata,"
Almost all the voices of female fans. The handsome Hideho Nakada has many female fans. When I came here to play, it was not to support Rome, but to support Hideho Nakada.
Even Zhang Lu was so happy to watch it.
"Hehe, it's really a long time to come out."
"Nakata was just warming up, and the Japanese fans screamed. It was not easy. It seems Capello decided to give Nakata Hideho a chance. Toti's poor performance should be the reason why Capello asked him to warm up."
"The Japanese media have been hyping up the Sino-Japanese confrontation these days, saying that if Nakada performed better than Zheng Zhi in the game and led Rome to defeat Inter Milan, then Nakada Hideho could surpass Zheng Zhi and become the number one person in Asia. It was a good opportunity. I don't know what they think. It would be fine if the Korean media thought so, why did even the Japanese media think so?"
Zhang Lu kept shaking his head.
"Haha," Huang Jianxiang smiled, "It's normal. Who is not jealous in his heart? He longs for his own country's players to become the number one in Asia. After all, Zheng Zhi has won the Bundesliga championship and the Champions League, and Nakada only helped Perugia successfully relegated before."
“There is actually no comparison at all.”
Huang Jianxiang really doesn't like Nakata Hideho...
In his opinion, although Nakada Hideho performed well in Serie A, it was limited to this and was completely different from Zheng Zhi.
"In this year's Asian Cup, I heard that Nakada Hideho did not respond to the call of the national team and chose to continue playing in Serie A. Zheng Zhiming will return to Asia to report tomorrow. What results can Nakada Hideho achieve?"
"Not Totti can do it, and Nakata is not much better. If you don't talk about Totti, just say Mattus, Redondo, Keane, Scholes..."
...
After the change of sides, Capello's adjustment was quite firm, and Thomassi could not emerge again, and Emerson appeared directly on the court.
As for Hideho Nakada, he was still warming up on the sidelines.
However, just one minute of the game started, Totti lost the ball in the frontcourt. Zheng Zhi was still a nightmare. This time, he didn't give Totti a chance to get the ball and turn around. Zheng Zhi took the ball directly behind his right side!
Da ~
The ball rolled to Pirlo's feet, and Pirlo immediately sent the overhead ball, but the strength was not mastered properly and the pass was too big, so Vieri failed to catch up with the ball.
Capello finally couldn't help it anymore and finally made up his mind to replace Nakada Hidesu with Totti!
"Come on, Nakata!"
"Come on, Nakata-kun!"
Japanese fans are completely shocked, and idols can finally play. In the eyes of Japanese media and fans, the Asian derby is finally about to begin.
Zheng Zhi vs. Nakata Hideho.
But in the eyes of Chinese fans, is there any difference between Nakada Hideho coming up?
However, when Totti came off the court, his face looked very ugly. He had never been replaced by Capello at this time this season. Although Capello stood on the sidelines waiting for him to get off the court, he didn't even look at Capello and walked straight to the bench.
This is his attitude.
But when he had just walked to the bench, crazy cheers immediately sounded behind him, and he subconsciously turned his head and looked back!
He was stupid at first glance.
Zheng Zhi!
It's Zheng Zhi again!
Nakada Hidesu, who replaced him on the court, was stupid when he touched the ball for the first time!
When Zanetti passed the ball to his feet, Zheng Zhi formed a physical confrontation with him behind him. Nakata, who was 1.75 meters and weighed only 142 kilograms, failed to protect the ball. Zheng Zhi stabbed the beer from behind, and then surpassed it from behind, and immediately sent the ball to Recoba's feet. Recoba was not obsessed and immediately passed the ball to the other side. Vieri was in place, and pushed the ball out of the arc with his left foot, and the ball was straight at the lower right corner.
"The ball has entered!"
"The ball has entered!"
"Vieri!"
"Vieri!"
...
Chapter completed!
