A smile appeared on Li Ang's face when he saw this.
In Barcelona's midfield, Yayaturay occupied the defensive midfielder position. According to Barcelona's system, he was closer to the position of the number four player. In addition to the player's ability to defend, assist in the organization of the offense, and kick the ball, he must have a strong sense of position when switching between offense and defense. Moreover, it was a positional sense within Barcelona's system, not a traditional defensive position or offensive position. Toure's characteristics were closer to that of a B2B midfielder with a strong scoring ability. It could be said that in Barcelona's current system, Toure's defense was not a problem, and his organization was also acceptable. However, his biggest shortcoming was his poor positional sense. This was not entirely Toure's problem. After all, Toure did not come from Barcelona's system, and in Barcelona's system, his degree of freedom and his ability to plug in and attack were restricted. In short, he was a player who could be the core of the midfield. However, Barcelona's current core of the midfield was Harvey, which made Yayaturay's play a little awkward.
What's more, in today's game, Rijkaard clearly put the defensive burden on Yayaturay. This was interesting.
"It looks like Rijkaard has underestimated him." Li Ang touched his chin.
*****
Inter Milan's corner kick!
Mata lobbed the football into the penalty area.
Adriano beat Marcos in the fight for the header. His head shot forced Valdés to make a save.
Inter Milan continued to take the corner kick.
This time, Inter Milan's corner kick did not go straight to the goal. After a few passes, it went outside, and Montari made another direct volley. Although it missed, it gave Barcelona a big fright.
"Be careful of Montari!" Rijkaard could not sit still off the field. He ran to the sidelines and loudly reminded the players on the field. "Don't give him so many chances to shoot from long range!"
Then, returning to the technical area, Rijkaard glanced at Inter Milan's technical area. Montari, the Ghanaian, was very active today. Was this a coincidence, or was it Li Ang's special arrangement?!
Originally, Rijkaard thought that Li Ang sent Montari to strengthen the defense of the tired Carlos. However, Montari's two consecutive long shots shook Rijkaard's initial guess.
If Montari was tasked with attacking, then … would Li Ang really feel at ease leaving the defense to Carlos?!
Rijkaard was a little uncertain.
The battle of tactics between managers continued in every minute of the game and in every detail. Obviously, at this moment, Li Ang's arrangement made Rijkaard a little confused.
*****
Barcelona's offensive at the start of the game was quickly contained, and Inter Milan began to strengthen their offense.
Inter Milan made a comeback again. Yayaturay hesitated for a moment. He began to approach Montari, ready to defend against the overly active Ghanaian.
However, this time Montari did not dribble the ball. Instead, he passed the football out.
Arshavin retreated to receive the ball.
"Ah!"
With a scream, Arshavin fell to the ground.
"Foul!" The Inter Milan fans shouted.
The referee, Stark, hesitated for a moment and did not blow the whistle in his mouth.
Barcelona did not delay and quickly launched a counterattack.
"Arshavin has been knocked down by Abidal, but the referee doesn't think there was a foul!"
"Counterattack! This is Barcelona's chance to fight back! "
The football was passed to Yayaturay's feet. Harvey was asking for the ball, but Yayaturay did not pass the ball. He still wanted to continue dribbling.
Then people saw Juan Carlos rush out from the side and rush towards Yayaturay. The two men collided solidly.
Yayaturay staggered from the collision and lost the football.
Carlos was about to get the ball when he heard the referee's whistle.
*****
"Foul!"
Loud boos against Carlos rang out in the stands at Camp Nou.
The Barcelona players once again surrounded the referee, Stark. He did not give a yellow card to Carlos just now. This time, he should give one.
"Referee, that kid fouled!"
"A serious foul!"
"This is definitely a yellow card!"
"You didn't give it just now. You should give it now!"
Stark was surrounded by the Barcelona players. His face was gloomy. As the referee, he was naturally extremely disgusted by the players' encirclement.
"I'm the referee!" Stark pointed to himself with a serious face. Then he waved his hand and motioned for the Barcelona players to disperse.
The Barcelona players did not give up. Harvey saw that the referee's face was not good, so he came over to persuade his teammates to disperse.
Li Ang whistled on the sidelines. It was really Barcelona's tradition. He had really hoped that the Barcelona players would continue to encircle the referee. It would be best if they could anger the German golden whistle.
In Li Ang's Inter Milan, it was generally forbidden to encircle the referee because only the captain was really qualified to protest and reason with the referee. If the other players were too emotional and angered the referee, they would be shown a yellow card. The loss would outweigh the gain.
*****
Barcelona's free kick.
This free kick did not pose any threat to Inter Milan's goal.
On the contrary, Messi's subsequent dribbling and Eto 'o's subsequent shot forced Inter Milan's goalkeeper, César, to make a save.
Then, Barcelona's corner kick, they tried to hang the football directly into the penalty area. The football was caught out of the air by César.
The game began to enter an offensive state. Both sides put a lot of energy into offense. This also made the fans in front of the television very enjoyable.
"The game is very open! Both sides are trying to find a goal! "
"An intense battle of attacks! For the neutral fans, this is the most enjoyable game for everyone! "
However, as the game went on, people found that Inter Milan's offensive efficiency and threat to the goal were slightly better than Barcelona's.
As the game went on, Rijkaard also understood Inter Milan's tactical configuration today.
Inter Milan's number for this match was 442. In this tactic, in Rijkaard's opinion, Montari and Juan Carlos should be the two defensive midfielders, but in fact, their positions were not in the same line. Carlos's seat was slightly behind, while Montari was in front. The front and back were staggered. It was not a diamond midfield, nor was it a parallel midfield.
This formation clearly stated the division of labor in the midfield of the Inter Milan Team: Carlos was the main defender, Montari was more involved in the offense, and the two attacking midfielders, Mata and Arshavin, as well as the two center forwards, Adriano and Diego Milito. In fact, Inter Milan's formation could be said to be extremely aggressive.
