The Day I Played with Ronaldo

During the intermission, the Inter Milan fans kept singing, and the singing floated into the locker room. Even though Ricardo has been in Inter Milan for half a year, he is already used to such singing, and he still feels a little emotional.

Mancini affirmed the performance of the players throughout the first half of the game, and then said a few words to the players in each position one by one.

When it was Ricardo's turn, Mancini pointed at him and scolded with a smile: "Ricardo, although I understand your feelings of arguing for your teammates, you must also pay attention to controlling your emotions. The most important psychological quality for a good shooter is Calm down, I don't want you to get too hot and unable to perform your duties."

Ricardo lowered his head and said, "Understood. I will pay attention to control, Robert."

"Also," Mancini said, "I don't know what's wrong with you today. I feel that you are playing very unconfidently, unlike the usual you. Be bold, take the ball when you need it, break through when you need to break through, and break through when you need to break through. Make good use of your strengths."

Ricardo trembled and nodded vigorously. He belatedly realized that today he seemed to take Maldini and Nesta, the world-class central defender combination, seriously.

The main reason is that he was only a third-rate striker in his previous life, so he was naturally in awe of such a world-class player.

And in this life, he is now an intercontinental player, whether it is technical level, consciousness level, or physical confrontation level, he will not be beaten by world-class players, and he can try to get the ball in front of them, or even break through.

After a round of comments, Mancini began to arrange the tactics for the second half.

What to do in the first few minutes, what to do in the next period of time, how to play if the score is ahead, and how to play if you accidentally fall behind, he talked about it all, and the break is over.

When he walked out of the locker room and came to the player tunnel, Ricardo found that Nesta and the referee De Santis were talking about something, and Seedorf next to him was also smiling. This gave Licado a very bad association.

But the football rules did not say that players cannot communicate with the referee in private, so he could only snort coldly and put away his worries.

After the start of the second half, Inter Milan kicked off first. Neither side made substitution adjustments.

Ricardo implemented Mancini's deployment and looked for breakthrough opportunities on the left at the beginning of the game. However, Cafu has rich experience and has been following him closely to prevent him from breaking through smoothly. However, Riccardo still found a chance, opened up an opening, and kicked a cross. However, under interference, he passed too close to the goalkeeper and Dida struck out to get the ball.

Ronaldo in the middle had nothing to do, if Dida didn't strike in time, he would be sure of the ball.

At this time, the fans ignited a large number of fireworks, and the smoke filled the sky above the Meazza Stadium, which affected the visibility of the stadium.

When the line of sight is blocked, the judgment of the high-altitude ball will obviously be affected, so for a while, both sides began to focus on advancing on the ground.

However, the ground defense of both sides is relatively solid. Favalli and Mikhailovich are also generally weak when defending high-altitude balls. Cordoba is also short of height, and the ground defense is relatively aggressive. Therefore, this model is not good for Inter Milan. It is more favorable, as long as 10 minutes, AC Milan did not play a threatening attack.

At this time Ancelotti made a second substitution adjustment, with Rui Costa off and Costacurta on.

Costacurta played central defender to assist Maldini to defend Ronaldo; Serginho was pushed to the left midfielder position. Kaka is still playing the attacking midfielder.

In this way, AC Milan's formation on the field becomes asymmetrical, which can kill obsessive-compulsive disorder.

In the 68th minute, Ricardo and Stankovic cooperated on the left. Ricardo took the ball and calmly shook Gattuso away. When Pirlo grabbed the ball, he gave the ball to Stankovic again.

As long as Stankovic takes a big step, he can take advantage of the opportunity to enter the penalty area and shoot.

In desperation, Cafu tackled Stankovic from behind to defuse Inter Milan's attack. He received a yellow card for his move, and Ricardo had nothing to say. After all, Cafu's kick was a tactical foul and he had no intention of killing.

Mikhailovich's free kick was firmly embraced by Dida, and the offense and defense switched.

Soon, in a scramble, Veron and Gattuso collided. After the team doctor's examination, he believed that he could no longer continue the game. Mancini had to make a substitution, replacing Veron with Emre.

Emre also brought Mancini's latest instructions: shrink the formation and focus on defense.

As a result, Inter Milan's number of people attacking in the frontcourt has decreased. C. Zanetti is almost no longer involved in the attack, and Cambiasso rarely steps forward.

In the 73rd minute, Ricardo took the ball and quickly moved to the left. Emre appeared in the open to receive the ball, made a low pass and hit it near the penalty spot.

Under the double team of Costacurta and Maldini, Ronaldo struggled to find a gap, stopped the ball first and then shot. But under the interference, he missed the right position, the quality of the shot was not high, and Dida hugged the ball.

Dida ran to the edge of the penalty area with the ball in his hands, found Serginho with a throw, and launched a counterattack.

Pressed by Zanetti, Serginho dribbled the ball close to the baseline before scrambling to win a corner.

The corner kick was not given to Pirlo, but Serginho took the penalty.

The ball he drove was flat and fast, and Cordoba took the front point to destroy the ball.

After Gattuso stopped the ball on the outside chest, he took a long-range shot directly. The football hit Kaka and changed direction. Toldo had already made a save, and at this time he could only watch the ball roll slowly from his opposite direction. Goal. 1 to 0, AC Milan leads.

"Kaka goal!" The commentator shouted passionately: "AC Milan opened the scoring! This is not a very exciting goal, with a certain amount of luck. Inter Milan is really unlucky! Is their unbeaten record this season Is this the end?"

"Since last season, after Inter Milan lost 1:2 to Lecce on May 2 last year, they have gone 38 games without losing in the league. And this season started with the victory over Juventus, Inter Milan once They have won 10 consecutive victories and showed a good state. However, as they were tied by Udinese in the 23rd round, they only won 1 victory in the last 3 games, and their state has declined."

"It can be seen from this game that AC Milan did not play well, but Inter Milan did not create any decent opportunities."

"If Inter Milan loses, Juventus will be the happiest. At present, Juventus ranks first in the standings with 56 points, and Inter Milan ranks second with 53 points. If this score is maintained until the end, Juventus The Sri Lankan will have the last laugh!"
