Everyone thought that Li Ang's substitution of Marchisio and Balotelli was to give the youngsters a chance to practice, which also meant that he was going to beat the gong to withdraw his troops.
No one expected that in the last ten minutes of the game, Inter Milan would set off a frenzied wave of attacks.
Ibrahimović and Emerson were sent off. AC Milan, lacking two players, was already somewhat demoralized. In the face of Inter Milan's indiscriminate bombardment, their goal was once again lost.
In the 89th minute of the game, after Balotelli cut inside from the flank, he lifted his leg for a long shot. The football was blocked by Nesta, who fell to the ground. Mata got the ball and launched a second attack.
He passed diagonally to the flank. After the Inter Milan Team captain, Zanetti, received the ball, he lifted his leg and directly crossed.
In the penalty area, facing Inter Milan's four attacking points, AC Milan's defenders were a little embarrassed.
Adriano's header brushed back, and Balotelli, who was a little behind, used his knee to knock the football into the net.
“Goooooaaaaal！”
"Four to one! Inter Milan has extended their lead to three goals! Balotelli has scored! He has to thank Adriano for his assist. "
"Li Ang's substitution worked wonders. Balotelli scored not long after he came on. This 17-year-old kid is really a gem!"
"Mario Balotelli! Oh, oh, oh! Inter Milan scored another goal! This is Balotelli's first goal in the Milan Derby. This kid came on as a substitute and gave an excellent performance! He also became another Milan Inter Milan player to score for the first time in the Inter Milan Derby! "
*****
After the goal, Balotelli picked up the ball from the net and stuffed it into his jersey. Then he ran to the sidelines and imitated the movements of a pregnant woman, twisting his buttocks.
His celebratory action shocked everyone.
"Balotelli's girlfriend is pregnant?" Ferrari said incoherently, "Alright, we don't even know who his girlfriend is. But, from the looks of it, we should congratulate Balotelli."
"Not only is this kid amazingly talented in football, he's also very good off the field." The English commentator, Motson, teased his commentator partner, Lineker. "Gary, what were you doing when you were 17?"
"I'm not as good as him. At that time, I was good friends with my right hand." After Lineker finished speaking, he started laughing loudly.
On the sidelines, Li Ang was also a little stunned. Balotelli was going to be a father? What the hell?!
On the field, the Inter Milan players were also very happy. They surrounded Balotelli and patted his head. Mata shouted as he patted, "Mario, I didn't expect you to be so good!"
Balotelli raised his head. "I've always been very strong."
Everyone laughed heartily, as if they understood everything.
Inter Milan's side was celebrating happily, while AC Milan's side was gloomy.
On the sidelines, Ancelotti put his hands on his hips and looked helpless. He kept shaking his head. There was nothing he could do about the situation on the field.
*****
The final score of the game was Inter Milan defeating their city rival, AC Milan, 4: 1 at home.
When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, there was a huge cheer in the Meazza Stadium.
The Inter Milan fans were cheering for the victory and also officially cheering for the team's winter break championship.
"The game is over! Inter Milan defeated AC Milan, 4: 1 at home! The strength of the two teams was almost the same. Few people thought that Inter Milan would defeat AC Milan so easily at home. From the looks of it, Inter Milan won too easily. They defeated their city rival by three goals. Not only did AC Milan lose, but Emerson and Ibrahimović were also sent off with red cards. For AC Milan, the worst news might be after the game. Emerson and Ibrahimović might be suspended! They lost both the game and the players … "
"Two and a half years have passed since Li Ang came to Italy in the summer of 2005. Li Ang's Inter Milan and Ancelotti's AC Milan have played five times. Li Ang has won all five games, which means that Inter Milan has beaten AC Milan five times in a row …"
"Ancelotti's performance in this game was terrible. There was clearly a problem with his line-up. Emerson's starting lineup was a disaster. Ancelotti did not decisively make any substitutions after the start of the second half. His hesitation eventually led to a tragedy. Emerson's red card could have been avoided … And Ibrahimović, the Swede was obviously not in the right mood. If Ancelotti was more decisive, he should have replaced Ibrahimović in time!"
"It's not just the line-up and on-the-spot command. AC Milan was completely suppressed by Inter Milan today. Ancelotti was also at a disadvantage in the tactical confrontation with Li Ang! Manager Li Ang showed us his admirable tactical deployment and on-the-spot command! "
The commentators mercilessly criticized Ancelotti while singing praises for Li Ang.
The winner was king, and the loser was a bandit. It was that simple, direct, and cruel!
*****
Then, the commentators congratulated Inter Milan on their record-setting way of winning the Serie A's winter break.
"Seventeen league games, all won. With a seventeen win streak, Inter Milan entered the winter break. This is not only the best start to the season in Inter Milan's history, but also the first time in Serie A history that a team has won seventeen games in a row in the first round of the league!"
"With a seventeen win streak and a total of fifty-one points, Inter Milan has also set a record for points before the winter break. The second-place team, Roma, only has thirty-six points. Inter Milan leads Roma by fifteen points! Five wins in a row! This is a shockingly huge lead! "
"When the winter break came, they led the second-place team by fifteen points. This is a huge lead that makes the pursuers despair! Inter Milan can't possibly lose the league title with such a huge lead! "
"A huge lead! We can even say that the suspense of this season's Serie A championship is getting smaller and smaller. It can almost be said that there is no suspense at all! Perhaps the biggest suspense is how big of a lead Inter Milan will win the championship in the end, and whether they will win the league title a few rounds earlier! "
"Congratulations to Inter Milan. Congratulations to Li Ang. Congratulations to them. They are the Serie A's winter break champions! They have been leading all the way. They are invincible. This is the misfortune of the other teams in Serie A, and also the pride of Inter Milan! "Ferrari looked at the Inter Milan players who were celebrating in the stadium and said loudly.
Li Ang stood in the stadium. He had just finished an interview with the reporters. Then he walked to the side of the stands and waved his hand.
Suddenly, the entire stadium erupted in loud cheers.
More than eighty thousand fans in the stadium shouted a name together:
Li!
Li!
Li!
In this stadium, in this team, this Chinese man had a terrifying influence and support.
With a wave of his hand, tens of thousands of people cheered!
With a breath, half the city went crazy for you!
