Chapter 111
With a score of 2:0, Inter Milan players were very happy and the atmosphere was quite relaxed.
Icardi, who scored twice, was even more refreshed.
"Leicester City is nothing but"
"Yes, they were bragging about how great they were before the game, but is this the second level of the Premier League?"
"It seems that the strength of the Premier League is just so-so. If you really want to watch football, you should still watch Serie A."
"Yes, at most La Liga is a little better than us, but the Premier League is really rough."
In the eyes of Serie A players, the stereotype of the Premier League is still rough technology, fast pace, relying on body and speed, and fond of fouls.
On the contrary, La Liga focuses on technology, and Serie A focuses on tactics.
No one understands tactics better than Serie A players and Serie A coaches.
Many new and fashionable tactics popular in Europe were developed and promoted from Serie A.
They have a sense of superiority, but look down on the Premier League, and even more so on Leicester City, which has risen this season.
Just as the players were discussing enthusiastically, a voice said coldly
"Are you satisfied with this?"
The air in the locker room seemed to drop a few degrees. The players looked back and saw Mancini standing at the door of the locker room with a sullen face.
Everyone's smiles froze on their faces, making it a bit awkward. They were clearly leading 2:0, Inter Milan had outplayed their opponents by 17 points throughout the game, and both the process and the result were a complete win for the opponent.
Why was head coach Mancini still not happy?
"Why don't you learn from the champagne popping at halftime? Do you want to learn from the next door?"
Mancini even quoted the story of his cousin AC Milan, which made the players even more confused.
Their opponent is Liverpool at its peak!
We are just playing against a newly promoted team in rotation, we won't be overturned, right?
Mancini was really a bit disappointed.
Assistant coach Giulio Nucciari also smiled awkwardly and said:
"Roberto, I think it's okay for the team to have a relaxed atmosphere after winning two goals. Everyone played very well in the first half."
"That's because the Chinese didn't play."
"It's hard for him to change the situation alone, right? If we score another goal in the second half and lead by 3 goals, it will be easier in the second round."
"No, not enough. Mancini frowned.
Two goals are not enough, three goals are not enough!
We must score more, four, five! The more the better!
"Forehead——"
Seeing Mancini's red eyes and slightly manic expression, Giulio Nucciari was immediately embarrassed.
Since meeting Lin Mo, Mancini seemed to have triggered PTSD, and the whole person became abnormal.
What kind of psychological trauma did the League Cup final leave on him?
……
In the second half, perhaps influenced by Mancini, Inter Milan did not slow down the pace and defend steadily, but pressed and besieged, hoping to create more goals.
Leicester City substitutes did not panic, but rather defended the penalty area slowly and steadily, not giving the opponent any chances.
Icardi was also targeted by Ranieri, and his defense was handed over to the young and strong Liam Moore, while the 183cm substitute midfielder Hammond was arranged to assist in defense.
As a result, the Beryllium King gradually lost his voice and was buried in the penalty area.
With dense personnel and focused defense, Inter Milan's siege was slow to achieve results, and was actually dragged down by the substitute lineup of Leicester City!
"Lin, I'll give you 20 minutes. Is that enough?"
"Of course, 10 minutes is enough."
Just when the second half was in a stalemate, the director's camera suddenly turned to the sidelines!
That man came out to warm up!
"Lin Mo! Is he finally going to play?"
The Chinese fans who were almost falling asleep were instantly alert.
Why did they stay up so late? It was all for Lin Mo!
He is finally going to play!
The director of Sky Sports also frequently gave Lin Mo shots.
He was warming up off the court, even more than the players on the court.
It can be seen that Lin Mo is a popular star even in Europe!
In the 71st minute of the game, Leicester City requested a substitution.
Lin Mo changed into his team uniform and stood on the sidelines, which immediately caused cheers from the away fans, almost drowning out the home fans at Meazza!
"Lin Mo, he’s here!"
The fourth official raised a sign, 4 Drinking Water Brother out, 24 Lin Mo in!
"Lin, kill them."
"Don't worry."
Brother Heshui and Lin Mo high-fived and walked off the court to rest.
"hiss——"
Mancini's pupils shrank, but that person still played!
The most feared episode is here!
As expected, just one minute after Lin Mo came on the court, he used a [warship tackle] to steal Kovacic and quickly dribbled forward to launch a counterattack!
""Lin Mo!! Plan a counterattack!"
Liu Kang was so excited that he just shouted loudly.
But the fans in the live broadcast room didn't care. They also shouted loudly and cheered for Lin Mo across the screen!
The rhythm of Serie A is not fast. Lin Mo's dribbling charge would be quickly stopped in the Premier League, but in Serie A, it was like a train driving straight in!
Facing the defensive players, he quickly passed the ball to Schlupp to continue to move forward!
Schlupp brought it to the penalty area and passed it horizontally to the edge of the penalty area line.
Lin Mo met the ball and shot it!
【Sniper Shot]!
Bang!
The football turned into a cannonball and disappeared in an instant.
Inter Milan goalkeeper Carrizo had never seen such a shot before, and he was completely stunned. (To read exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
He turned his head and saw that the football had hit the net behind him!
"Beautiful!!! It’s in, it’s in!!"
"Gooooooa1——"
Lin Mo had just come on as a substitute for less than a minute when he led the team to complete a textbook counterattack!
Leicester City scored the first goal on the target in the second half!
Amazing efficiency!
Inter Milan players only then understood why Mancini was so afraid of Leicester City and Lin Mo.
Because he was really scary!
……
2:2!
At the end of the game, all the Inter Milan players were still in fear, as if they had escaped a disaster!
They were obviously at a disadvantage, but everyone had a look of fear and relief on their faces.
If the stoppage time was one minute longer, they would probably continue to lose the ball!
After Lin Mo came on the court, the pressure he brought to Inter Milan was almost substantial!
He alone suppressed Inter Milan's attack, and at the same time constantly brought fatal threats in counterattacks! []
If it weren't for Shinji Okazaki wasting opportunities, Inter Milan would have lost 4 goals long ago!
The threat of counterattacks forced them to be cautious and not dare to attack.
Mancini was also very decisive. He directly replaced Icardi and Kovacic, and replaced two defensive players in succession.
Even so, they still lost another goal in the 85th minute of the game!
Lin Mo's long-range shot penetrated Inter Milan's goal!
He scored twice in 20 minutes after coming on as a substitute!
Inter Milan even had all its players defending in the last minute. The fans at the Meazza looked at the table and prayed to God with their hands folded.
The most terrifying episode!
Finally, thanks to Mancini's defensive tactics, Inter Milan managed to keep the tie at home and was not overturned by the opponent.
Leicester City, who rotated to play, could accept this outcome.
At present, the European competition rules still count away goals. If the total score of the two sides is tied, the team with more away goals will advance.
Therefore, a 2:2 tie is also a good result for Leicester City.
They can return to their home court calmly with a rotation of the lineup to prepare for the next decisive battle!
After the game, Mancini looked very serious:
"We played well and held on to the tie. Facing an opponent like Leicester City and the threat of Lin Mo, the players have done a good job."
The Italian media was very dissatisfied and questioned Mancini:
"Mr. Mancini, we could have stepped up our attack in the second half to win, so why did you replace the two main forwards?"
Mancini responded:
"You don't know Lin's ability. If you attack without restraint, you will die faster! My decision is the best solution!"
"Don't tell me what to do, I'm the only one who understands my opponent!
Mancini's defense was broken again
……
Lin Mo has no time to think about this Europa League knockout match.
The one who is about to arrive on the battlefield is the big boss of this season
's Premier League! If the Premier League is like a level-breaking game, Chelsea, the top team, is undoubtedly the final boss!
The battle of the King Mountain is worth 6 points.
If you win, you can impact the championship. If you lose, you will hand over the initiative to others!
For both sides, this game cannot be lost!
For a while, the atmosphere of the entire Premier League became extremely tense!
The media, the fans of both sides, and the spectators, everyone's eyes are locked on this focus battle!
The suspense of the Premier League championship in the 2014-2015 season will be revealed here!.
