Chapter 134 The Game Begins

Familiar stadium, familiar feeling, even many of the fans in the stands seem to have known each other. I don’t know if any of them have signed autographs with me, and have they had dinner at my restaurant.

Zhu Hantao took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He did not listen to the voices of the unexpected world and focused on the field. At the same time, he had to perform well tonight so that everyone could see his growth.

Torino's defensive midfielder Saumel took a provocative look at Zhu Hantao who was not far away after stealing the ball, which made Zhu Hantao a little puzzled.

Hey, brother, what are you doing, why don't we discuss something, just play football, don't wink at me.Zhu Hantao couldn't help complaining like this in his heart.

The Austrian passed the ball to Corini. This veteran who is also a teacher and friend with Zhu Hantao is one year older. The 38-year-old midfielder can still be active in Serie A. Well, it seems that it is not very rare.

No wonder some people always say that the pace of Serie A games is slow and suitable for the elderly. It seems that this statement is not unreasonable.

What is 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi?The situation of Serie A and the Premier League in the new century vividly explains the principle of feng shui rotation.

At the end of the last century, it is well known that Serie A has the title of a small World Cup. The Apennine Peninsula has gathered superstars, the German Troika, the Dutch Three Musketeers, and Zidane Ronaldo, etc. There are countless.

At this time, the Premier League was in a downturn due to the Heysel tragedy. The English team was banned from participating in the three major European cups for 5 years, and the peak Liverpool was banned for 7 years. A large number of British players left to play.

In the mid-90s, many Serie A balloon stars flowed to the Premier League.

Gullit was 33 years old when he joined Chelsea, but he conquered all fans in just one season, and then started his career as a player-coach, and helped the team acquire many stars from Serie A.

For example, Vialli joined Chelsea from AC Milan, and the Italian was 32 years old when he came to Stamford Bridge from San Siro.

Also, in November 1996, Gianfranco Zola, who was just 11 years old, transferred from the Italian club Parma to the Premier League team Chelsea in London for a price of 30 million pounds, and so on.

For Italian players who have always been reluctant to leave, the Premier League at that time seemed to be the end of their careers.

However, after 2000, Serie A embarked on the old path of only "burning money" due to its slow pace in commercial development.

The subsequent Telmopolitan incident and the financial crisis severely damaged the vitality of Italian football, coupled with dilapidated stadiums, deep-rooted racial discrimination and the inaction of the Italian Football Association, which eventually led to the desolation of Serie A.

In contrast to the Premier League, good operations have not only promoted the Premier League around the world, enhanced its own reputation, but also brought huge income.

Just the high broadcasting fee makes the clubs earn a lot of money. Of course, the major Premier League clubs can spend a lot of money to build stadiums and buy stars. This way the game will be more attractive, the fans will like it more, and the development will naturally be better.

Back in the game, although Corini is old, his physical condition is not bad, and his technique has not regressed. He sent out with a long kick, and the Inter Milan players hurried back to defend.

The frontcourt players of the Turin team also ran. Corini's pass was passed to Amoruso.

The 33-year-old Amoruso can be said to be a veteran of Serie A. The Italian from Sampdoria's youth training represented Sampdoria in Serie A in the 93-94 season.

Counting it, Amoruso has played in Serie A for more than ten years. Just last season, he also represented Reggina in 33 league appearances and scored twelve goals.

Although it was a bit lower than last season's 300 goals, it was still considered by the Turin club as a supplement for Zhu Hantao's departure and cost [-] million to buy.

Although Materazzi is one year older than Amoruso, the bodies of these two people are not at the same level at all. The tall and strong Materazzi is like a mountain blocking the Torino striker.

Amoruso tried weakly, unable to even turn around, and could only pass the ball wide.

The right back Diana, who assisted on the right road, put on at a high speed and brought the ball near the baseline.

Before coming to Turin from Palermo, Diana often played the positions of right midfielder and right midfielder. After coming to Turin, it happened that there was no real right back in the team that could satisfy the head coach, so under the suggestion of the head coach, Diana now appeared in the position of right back.

If you have an impression, you will remember that the former main right back was also the former captain of the Turin team, Komoto, and finally got his wish and moved to Fiorentina.

However, due to the habit of playing in the midfield for many years, Diana would always attack the frontcourt unconsciously. Mourinho saw the loopholes of the Turin team, covered his mouth and said something to the assistant coach next to him, and then wrote it down in his small notebook.

In this game, the Romanian Chivu, who played left back, has not yet entered the game state. He was caught off guard by Diana's breakthrough.

"The full-back of the Turin team played very confidently. Facing a strong team like Inter Milan, he dared to make moves. A full-back of him directly attacked from the backcourt to the frontcourt, and even Inter Milan's defensive players didn't stop him."

"Hey, Diana used to play as a midfielder. His offensive ability should be stronger than his defensive ability, and his speed is also quite fast, as can be seen from his breakthrough just now."

"Let's look at the ball, what will he choose? Continue passing or pass to the middle? The cross! Rolando Bianchi headed the goal! Cesar saved it! The danger is not over yet! Rosina's supplementary shot! Oops, it missed."

"Just as I thought, hey, the Turin team is also used to it, seizing the opportunity when the opponent was a little slack at the beginning of the game, and launched a very threatening attack.

Italian center Bianchi's header was saved by Inter Milan's goalkeeper Cesar.

Then, it was Rosina's supplementary shot, but unfortunately it missed the target and missed the goal. "

The Brazilian national goal in front of the goal was also in a cold sweat, "What are you thinking! Focus! Don't be distracted! Defend! Don't give them such an easy chance to complete the shot!"

After Cesar yelled at the teammates in front of him, Mourinho sat back in his seat. The Brazilian had already said everything he wanted to say, so it was easy, so let's continue watching the game.

For the goal kick of the Nerazzurri, Cesar took the ball up the frontcourt with a big foot and wanted to pass it to Ibrahimovic, but unfortunately the ball was a little crooked, and Mancini got the ball on the right.

Ibrahimovic was in the middle, and Mancini came to the right at this time, Zhu Hantao naturally ran to the left side of the opponent's penalty area and waited for an opportunity.

Facing the menacing attack from Inter Milan, the Turin team was in a hurry but not chaotic, and retreated steadily step by step. Except for Diana who had just attacked the frontcourt, all other defensive players were in position.

Pisano rushed towards Mancini Jr., who was advancing with the ball. Mancini Jr. tried to speed up and failed, so he had to choose to pass the ball.

With a pump of his right foot, the ball flew over the penalty area and over Ibrahimovic's head. Mancini passed the ball to the back point, and Zhu Hantao controlled the ball in time.

After getting the ball, Zhu Hantao observed the situation around. Diana, who was supposed to be defending himself behind him, hadn't had time to return to his defensive position.

It's all in this position, so do I need to say more?Of course it was a direct shot!Zhu Hantao shot the far corner with his right foot and hit the goal directly!

The skill [Piero area] that comes with the sneakers took effect, and the football drew a strange arc in the penalty area, bypassing the head of the Torino defender and heading straight for the dead corner on the upper right of the goal.

"Have it!" Zhu Hantao felt that the ball was there the moment he shot the ball, and scored steadily.

But I didn't expect that what was waiting was not the pleasant sound of "swish!" The sound of the football hitting the net, but the sound of "crack!" The ball touched the goalkeeper's glove.

"Cesar kicks the goal kick, Mancini breaks through with the ball! Cross! Center! No, it goes to the left! Zhu Hantao! Zhu Hantao takes the ball! Shot! Oops! Torino goalkeeper Cereni made a wonderful save!

Zhu Hantao's kick was already quite good, but he was rejected by Serene. "

"Yes, the quality of Zhu Hantao's shot just now is very high, it reminds me of another person, fans who often watch Juventus games may have the same feeling as me.

That's right, it's Del Piero. Piero also has a lot of shots from this position. Zhu Hantao's shot just now has a bit of Del Piero's shadow.

It's just that the goalkeeper of the Turin team was very focused and reacted very quickly. It was not easy to save the ball. "

Zhu Hantao was not annoyed that his shot that was almost a must-goal was blocked, and he even gave his former teammate Serene a thumbs up, expressing his appreciation for today's opponent's rush to the street just now.

Serene smiled and applauded Zhu Hantao after seeing it. Your shot just now was also great.

"It can be seen from the camera that Zhu Hantao and Serene are very friendly. It seems that Zhu Hantao has a good relationship with his former teammates."

"Hey, maybe it's because Zhu Hantao and Serene were teammates before, so this goalkeeper has a better understanding of Zhu Hantao's shooting habits and technical characteristics, so he was able to make an accurate judgment and save Zhu Hantao's shot."

The ball was saved by the goalkeeper of the Turin team. The referee Farina gave Inter Milan a corner kick, which was also the first corner kick of the game.

This ball Ibrahimovic came to punish, what Chivu, Materazzi, Burdisso and other defenders with excellent header ability all flocked to the penalty area of ​​the Turin team.

Zhu Hantao was still cruising at the front of the penalty area, waiting for an opportunity to attack later.

The corner kick was driven to the middle, and Materazzi did his part to squeeze away the defenders of the Torino team.

It's a pity that he played too positively and was taken into the bag by Serene, who is in good form today.

Zhu Hantao shook his head, what a great opportunity, and he just missed it. Unfortunately, although he has a header skill, it seems that it has not been used for a long time.

Because the ball fell in stoppage time for the header, the player went to head the ball alone, but generally had to grab the header in the physical confrontation with the opposing player.

So it depends not only on the ability to head the ball, but also on the comprehensive ability of the body's strength, balance, jumping and other aspects.

Due to Zhu Hantao's age, it is not suitable for him to start training vigorously at such a young age. Under such circumstances, his physical confrontation will definitely be weaker than those guards of other teams.

Although his ability to bounce the header is okay and he is very good at grabbing points, but the fight for headers should be left to others.

The head coach of Inter Milan, Mourinho, did not allow Zhu Hantao to fight hand-to-hand with those muscular men for headers, which is actually a kind of protection for young players.

Serene quickly and vigorously threw the ball out of the penalty area, scored a few simple passes, and the ball was given to Rosina's feet.

The young teammate of the Torino team took the ball and made a high-speed breakthrough along the left side, and soon hit the front of the Inter Milan penalty area, and collided with Maicon.

When it comes to fighting for speed, the Brazilian is not at a disadvantage. Maicon easily dispelled Rosina's attempts to speed up several times.

Amoruso acted as the bridgehead of the Turin team's offense and played a role in supporting the transfer. After receiving the pass from Rosina, he immediately passed it to Bianchi.

The Italian striker took the ball from the top of the penalty area and wanted to continue to go deep into the hinterland. Inter Milan's central defender Burdisso looked at Bianchi step by step.

After struggling a few times, Bianchi barely kicked the goal in the penalty area, but was blocked by Burdisso.

The ball was blocked out of the penalty area and fell to the feet of Torino midfielder Paul Zanetti outside the penalty area. The Nerazzurri captain Zanetti also protected in front of his own penalty area to help defend.

So Zanetti faced Zanetti, which was the first time the two Zanetti faced each other head-to-head in this game.

The two had a physical confrontation, and the result was soon revealed. There was no doubt that Inter Milan's Javier Zanetti won, and the teenager successfully grabbed the ball from the opponent's feet.

The captain controlled the rhythm of the game. In the opening stage, the Turin team obviously wanted to take advantage of the advantage of the home court to seize the opportunity to play fast breaks, while Inter Milan needed to control the rhythm of the off-field and take the initiative.

Saumer wanted to force Zanetti without knowing the heights of the sky. After the captain of Inter Milan dodged the ball, he handed the ball to Cambiasso and asked Commander Can to organize the attack.

Cambiasso advanced five meters with the ball. Seeing Ibrahimovic's running position in front, he passed the ball with one kick and passed it to the Swede.

Ibrahimovic stopped the ball and turned without the slightest pause, showing a technical level far beyond what a big player like him should have.

At this moment, Zhu Hantao went straight into the penalty area on the left side of the court!
