"This is a decisive goal!" The commentator, Ferrari, shouted. "At the end of the first half, Inter Milan widened the gap to two goals. This is a huge blow to Spalletti's team!"
Just as the Inter Milan players were celebrating the goal, the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half.
"At the end of the first half, Inter Milan leads Roma 2-0. Based on the results of the two teams in recent seasons, as well as Inter Milan's current state and strength, it will be very difficult for the Roma team to make a comeback in the second half of the game!" Rossi said.
"Obviously, Spalletti is also aware of the serious situation brought to the Roma team by the second goal concede!" Ferrari suddenly said.
The camera gave a close-up of the technical area. The Roma manager, Spalletti, looked a little helpless and a little disappointed as he walked straight to the players' corridor.
On the other side, the Inter Milan manager, Li Ang, had a smile on his face. He whispered something to his assistant, Pablo Banderas, as they walked to the players' corridor.
"Inter Milan completely controlled the situation on the field throughout the first half of the game!" Rossi said. "Manager Li Ang suppressed Spalletti tactically. The latter was not able to pose any threat to the China manager at all."
The television screen was replaying the two goals of Inter Milan in the first half of the game. The two commentators specifically intercepted the behavior and movements of the two managers on the sidelines before the two goals to explain some issues.
"Spalletti made two adjustments before and after. At the same time, Li Ang also made adjustments to some of the tactical details of Inter Milan."
"The result of the adjustments was that Inter Milan then sent the football into the Roma team's goal twice!"
"Inter Milan's players performed well, but I still think that their manager, Li Ang, should be praised the most," Rossi said with a smile. Rossi said with a smile, "Coach Li has completely suppressed Coach Spalletti in terms of tactics. They are not on the same level!"
*****
Inter Milan's goal at the last moment of the first half of the game widened the score. This was a big blow to the Roma team. The morale of the Red Wolves was also affected.
Morale was very important in a football game, even though it was often ignored. When many people analyzed and commented on a match, they would always think of a lot of things related to tactics, such as the formation of the two sides, the tactical requirements of the two sides …
However, there were times when the importance of morale had to be mentioned, especially for the weaker side. If the morale was hit again, it would be even more difficult to achieve the ideal result.
After the start of the second half of the game, Li Ang clearly noticed that the morale of the Roma players was affected. This was reflected on the field. The players' thoughts were not unified. Some players wanted to attack, but when the attack could not break the situation, they wanted to rely more on their individual ability. Some players were a little impatient.
The reason why the Roma team scared some teams in the Serie A arena was because of their wolf-pack tactics. This set of tactics was really wonderful when it was not played smoothly. It required the tacit cooperation and positioning of the players. When the Roma players became impatient and their morale was low, it was basically difficult for them to play that kind of swift and sharp offense again.
Li Ang immediately made adjustments to the current situation of the Roma team.
Li Ang had always believed in a creed: Kill the enemy when they are sick!
Faced with the somewhat chaotic Roma team, Li Ang's latest tactical instruction was to speed up!
With his order, Inter Milan increased their speed, and Roma gradually could not keep up.
In the 65th minute of the game, Inter Milan's continuous high-speed passes tore apart the Roma team's defensive line. Mata passed from the bottom, Adriano feigned an attack in the front, attracting the Roma team's defensive attention. Decaux, who was at the back, scored with a header. 3: 0!
*****
“Goooooaaaaal!”
"Decaux scores a goal for Inter Milan. His beautiful header from the back! This is the goal that locks in the victory! "The commentator shouted. "Inter Milan has a three-goal lead! This is a huge lead … The next game will be very difficult for Roma! Most importantly, we can't see that they have the fighting spirit and hope to make a comeback! "
Banderas and Li Ang high-fived. The goal was scored, and the game was basically declared. No one could make a comeback with Inter Milan's three-goal lead. Even Barcelona and Real Madrid, or Ferguson's Manchester United, could not do it, let alone Spalletti's Roma, who had been playing the role of Inter Milan's' point giver 'in recent seasons.
"It's wonderful!" Ferrari exclaimed. "Inter Milan suddenly sped up and directly made the Roma team unable to keep up with their rhythm. This goal came naturally!"
"This game can definitely be regarded as one of the most beautiful games in the Serie A this season," Rossi said. Rossi said, "Although the score is only 3-0 for the time being, the three goals, the process of the three goals was very exciting. The performance of the players on the field was wonderful. The most admirable one is Coach Li Ang. He deserves to be called a world-class coach. His several adjustments were very timely, and could be said to be fatal …"
In the camera, the Roma team manager, Spalletti, had a bitter expression …
"For Spalletti, today can be said to be a good lesson for him!" Ferrari exclaimed.
*****
At this time, there was a movement on the Inter Milan bench that attracted everyone's attention.
Li Ang's assistant, the former Inter Milan star player, Mihajlovic, ran to the bench to wake up Cassano to warm up.
Before the game, the media had been hyping up the feud between Cassano and Roma, the feud with Spalletti, the feud with the Roma captain, Francesco Totti, and the feud with the other Roma players.
However, after the game started, people noticed that Li Ang put Cassano on the bench and were slightly disappointed.
Now, with Inter Milan leading by three goals, it looked like Li Ang wanted to give Cassano a chance to face his old team.
Sure enough, at the 71st minute of the game, Inter Milan made a substitution. Adriano was brought off and Cassano came on as a substitute.
Li Ang's substitution was a bit unexpected. People thought that Li Ang would replace Agüero. The Argentine's performance today was not as eye-catching as Mata and Adriano. Of course, this did not mean that Agüero's performance was not good. In fact, in Li Ang's eyes, Agüero's performance was not inferior to Mata's. The Argentine's positioning and pulling played a good role as a cover for his other teammates.
"Li Ang has replaced Adriano!" Rossi said. "This is an unexpected adjustment. Now, Inter Milan's offense is Mata, Agüero, and Cassano, three players who are not tall."
"This reminds us of the game between Inter Milan and Liverpool." Ferrari suddenly said with a smile. In that game, Li Ang deployed a three-short offensive combination in the second half of the game when the team was short of one player. However, in that game, Cassano was replaced by Arshavin. The three players, who were not tall, attacked smoothly in the front field and made Liverpool suffer.
Now it seemed that Li Ang intended to repeat the same trick with Roma.
In fact, Spalletti's Roma's style of play was somewhat similar to Benítez's Liverpool's style of play in some ways.
