Chapter 175: It's all over
This is a crushing goal, a goal that can be called a goal that cannot be defended.
Countless media people and fans had only this idea at this moment. Ibrahimovic scored this goal purely by his own personal ability after receiving Balotelli's pass, and every player in Piacenza did not make any big mistakes in handling it.
Even Naingran, who was passed by Ibrahimovic in a crotch, was not a mistake when he chose to defend Ibrahimovic. It is the best way to deal with the high center forward to stick to the opponent.
However, Ibrahimovic still sent the ball into the goal, carried Marchisio, and faced Scapelli who jumped up. He shot with a long shot and made a long arc around Maurantanho's hands who judged the opponent's direction, and flew into the goal accurately.
For a moment, the fans of Piacenza even saw the scene of Super Maple standing opposite their team, because they really couldn't think of anyone else who could do this series of operations except their Super Maple.
This is the ability of a super player.
Now, Piacenza has to face far more than Ibrahimovic, a super player. In Inter Milan, whether it is Figo, Vieira, or even Balotelli, who is known as Super Mario, they all have similar magical abilities.
In Piacenza, there are very few such players.
Therefore, this also destined that Ibrahimovic's goal was just the beginning, not the end of this difficult game.
Fortunately, after Ibrahimovic scored Inter Milan's first goal, the first half had come to an end. Piacenza's players cheered up amid Conte's loud shouts on the sidelines and finally reached the halftime break.
At least, they have an intermission time to adjust the team's playing style and form.
But is Conte really having a solution?
In the locker room, all Piacenza players missed the figure who was sitting in the center but always lowered their heads and wiped their sneakers. At this moment, they realized what the word "soul" means.
Conte didn't have this idea in his heart, but he knew that the player who could believe in no matter what the situation would be impossible to play in this game. So, after a little reverie, he still cheered up and told the team's main players to adjust the second half.
The game will continue, and no one will stop without it. What Piacenza has to do now is how to curb the situation of continued collapse after the team's strength has dropped by a certain level, and find opportunities to save the situation.
The first thing Conte did was to adjust the team's formation. After Mourinho arranged a 433 formation, his role in the diamond midfield was greatly weakened, so he chose to restore the formation to the commonly used 442 to curb the role of Inter Milan's left and right wingers.
Conte then emphasized the offensive problem of this game again. In the absence of Liu Feng, he chose to believe that although he was not as talented as Liu Feng, he listed Aubameyang as a real fighter on the team's forward line. As for Flokari, he took on the wingman task to attract Sanetti's defensive attention.
After making these adjustments, Conte couldn't think of anything else to change. He glanced at the team's bench and frowned. Although the bench thickness was enhanced in the winter window, Piacenza still did not buy any players who could change the situation on the court as soon as they came on the court. Perhaps this situation can only be improved next season.
Soon, the staff knocked on the door of the locker room, and the Piacenza team members walked out of the locker room after finally passing Conte's cheering.
"Friends of the audience, welcome to the game scene. What will continue to play for you is the second half of the match between Piacenza and Inter Milan."
During the commentary, Liu Jianhong, who analyzed the situation on the field for the audience in the first half, appeared in front of the screen after a brief advertisement: "After the end of the first half, the away team Inter Milan temporarily led by one goal. Let's see what changes will happen in the situation in the second half."
"Shh!!!"
On the court, the referee whistled, and Piacenza, who had the power to kick off, sent the ball out. Aubameyang, who received the pass from Flokari, directly passed the ball over the team's front midfield and passed it to Marcisio in the back.
"Oh~, after the opening of the second half, Piacenza still chose to stabilize the situation first."
Yes, even when he was one goal behind, Conte was not overwhelmed by it. He knew very well that sometimes calmness was much more useful than reckless attacks. When Inter Milan was obviously in offensive state, it was very likely that the opponent would seize the opportunity to fight back.
Inter Milan's counterattack ability is still well-known in the world football world.
After receiving the ball, Marchisio quickly acted as the base point and passed the ball directly to each teammate. After changing the formation, Piacenza further expanded the control range by passing the ball with one foot, which completely lost the effect of Mourinho's tactic of pressing at the high end of the game.
However, in this way, Piacenza's attack was difficult to hit sharply. They could only pass the ball toward the Inter Milan penalty area by passing it.
In the 60th minute of the game, after several ball exchanges between the two sides, Piacenza finally completed the purpose of controlling the ball, and through the passing of the team's midfielder, the ball successfully came to the feet of center Flokari.
After attracting Sanetti's attention, Flocari, who was holding the ball on his back, pushed the ball directly to his right, and Aubameyang, who had been hiding behind him, suddenly rushed out of the left and got the ball. He quickly broke into the penalty area.
"Aubameyang! Very beautiful running position, he dribbled the ball into the penalty area~, ah! Maicon!!!"
Liu Jianhong praised Piacenza's adjustment in the second half. He believed that Conte made the final choice under existing circumstances, so the idea he gave to the audience during this offensive advancement was also the opportunity for Piacenza to finally come.
However, just as Aubameyang broke into the penalty area, another Inter Milan player who stood up directly killed the opportunity simply and neatly and poured a bucket of cold water on everyone.
This player is Inter Milan's right-back Maicon. When he missed the direct battle with Liu Feng again, he was full of energy. The moment Aubameyang entered the penalty area, he directly chose to tackle the ball, and while Aubameyang flew out, he directly controlled the ball under his feet.
Afterwards, without waiting for the referee to protest against the Piacenza players, he signaled that the tackle would not be fouled. Macon, who was confident in his clean tackle, directly transferred the ball to Inter Milan's frontcourt with one foot.
With only three defensive players left in the first half, Ibrahimovic relied on his lighthouse-like height to carry Scapelli and headed the ball to Balotelli on the left. Balotelli stopped and directly crossed Wolf and headed towards Piacenza's penalty area, and the speed was extremely fast.
"Inter Milan's counterattack has already been single!!! Balotelli! Shooting! The ball is in!!!"
The instantaneous flip on the court shocked everyone. When the ball was sent into Piacenza's goal by Balotelli, the Leonardo Stadium was silent for a moment.
Only Piacenza's coach Conte reacted at this moment. He covered his face and lay on the turf. At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind, and it was all over...
