green shooter

Chapter 187
Zhu Hantao, who failed to score a goal, was very frustrated. He wanted to score too much, so he thought too much. If he directly hangs the goal at the beginning, Buffon might not be able to prevent the goal.

"It seems that Zhu Hantao himself is very sorry for the ball just now."

"Indeed, the one-handed shot just now was the best chance so far. No wonder Zhu Hantao felt sorry."

A chance for Juventus to counterattack quickly, Thiago handed the ball to Nedved, and the Czech strode the ball forward.

After passing through the midfield, a wide shift was made to the right, Marchionne took the ball.Then he cooperated with Thiago who came up to meet him, trying to get past Muntari with two passes and one pass.

Inter midfielder Muntari fouled a little on the right side of the penalty area. The Ghanaian pulled Thiago down and Juventus won a free kick in a good position.

"Foul by Muntari! This is a free kick 23 meters away from the goal! See how Juventus play, this is a very good opportunity!"

"It seems that the ball is still handed over to Piero to take the penalty, so most of them will choose to pass the ball instead of hitting the goal directly."

Piero stood at the free throw position, looked at the wall of Inter Milan defenders in the penalty area, and looked at the position of his teammates, and made a judgment in his heart.

The leader of the Bianconeri team took a free kick from the right side of the penalty area. The ball passed over the heads of the crowd, and then the unmarked Grigera hit the ball with a half-volley shot with his right foot 9 meters in front of the goal!

"Hey, there's nothing to say about Del Piero's footwork. It's very precise, and he found his teammates accurately. However, Grigera missed the empty goal and disappointed the fans at the scene."

"We saw some Juventus supporters on the camera standing up and preparing to celebrate the goal. We didn't expect the goal to go in."

Inter's goal kick went upfield, but there were no players there and the ball went to Marchionne.

Juventus pushed again on the right, Thiago received a pass from Marchionne and put the ball straight into the penalty area, Piero's shot was saved by Cesar flying.

"Cesar's big kick, and the ball was directly given to the opponent. Eh? Juventus' counterattack! Through! Del Piero! Shot! Wonderful save! Cesar successfully blocked Del Piero's kick!"

"This goal is interesting. Inter Milan's goalkeeper Cesar first gave the ball to the Juventus player with a big foot, and then faced Del Piero's shot and used a wonderful flying save to resolve the crisis. It can be regarded as making up for it."

Then Inter Milan played more conservatively and patiently passed in the midfield. Zhu Hantao received the pass from Figo and dribbled the ball laterally to the left under the pressure of the opponent's defensive players.

Facing the defense of Tiago Mendes who was following up, Zhu Hantao saw the opportunity and blocked the ball to him, and the ball went through Tiago's crotch.

"Haha beautiful! Zhu Hantao made a wonderful dribble on the left side! It pierced the crotch of Juventus midfielder Thiago."

Later, under the defense of the Bianconeri's two defenders, Grigera and Lerotalie, Zhu Hantao had no choice but to pass the ball first.

Ibrahimovic faced Chiellini for Zhu Hantao's pass, and the two inevitably made some small moves in the physical confrontation. The Swede deliberately raised his arms and raised them to pretend to occupy his body, and hit Chiellini hard on the face with his elbow.

The Juventus central defender fell to the ground in pain holding his nose in an instant. Ibrahimovic quickly shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands with an innocent expression. You don't need to listen to him, you know what he is saying: "It's none of my business, I didn't hit him on purpose."

"Oh, Chiellini, the central defender of the Bianconeri, fell to the ground during the fight with Ibrahimovic. I don't know what happened."

"Hey, I have a nosebleed, probably because Ibrahimovic's arm hit me on the nose, so I need to go to the sidelines to deal with it."

"Well, the team doctor has come up with a medical kit. After the referee Farina's signal, Chiellini left the court to the sidelines to deal with the bleeding nose."

"The replay is here. From the slow-motion replay, it can be clearly seen that Ibrahimovic's elbow hit Chiellini. It's hard to say whether this action was intentional or unintentional. It seems that the referee is not planning to give a foul."

Farina didn't call Ibrahimovic's foul at all, which made the Juventus players very dissatisfied. They thought the Swede should be given a card, but the referee ignored it and the game continued.

Zhu Hantao even wanted to give Ibrahimovic a thumbs up, he really deserves it.

Since Chiellini has not yet returned to the field, Juventus can only fight with ten people for the time being, and Paulson retreats to the position of central defender.

This is an opportunity!Zhu Hantao started thinking again, and exchanged glances with his teammates, and Ibrahimovic nodded understandingly.

Figo sent a pass from the side. Ibrahimovic leaned on Paulson to control the ball. He forced a turn and dunked the defender to make a kick. Buffon, who knew the Swedes very well, was not tricked into making a save, but the Italian goalkeeper still moved, watching Ibrahimovic's next move vigilantly.

And Zhu Hantao, who was originally far outside the penalty area, suddenly broke through at high speed and rushed into Juventus' penalty area, passing by him like a gust of wind before Lerotalie didn't realize it.

It was too late and then too soon, Ibrahimovic's pick pass came just in front of Zhu Hantao, Zhu Hantao took the ball from the left side of the penalty area, and Buffon was the only one standing in front of the goal.

Buffon, who was staring at Ibrahimovic earlier, turned to look at Zhu Hantao with horror on his face. Before he had time to react, Zhu Hantao had already kicked. At this time, there was no time for the Juventus goalkeeper to jump up and reach for the ball.

In the silence at the Stadio Olimpico in Torino, the fans held their breath as the ball flew past Buffon's fingertips into the far top corner of the goal.

Then, in the stands of Inter Milan, wild cheers erupted.

"The goal is scored! Zhu Hantao's goal! Very imaginative cooperation! Zlatan Ibrahimovic's volley and Zhu Hantao's volley! Even Buffon can't do anything!

Unexpectedly, most of the time before, the home team Juventus had the upper hand. As a result, Zhu Hantao's goal helped Inter Milan take the lead in breaking the deadlock on the field. "

"Hey, this ball is what I always said before, and it is the exquisite cooperation of Inter Milan's striker duo. Their passes and runs, and their shots are all manifestations of individual abilities.

In fact, they seized the opportunity that Juventus had one less player on the field. The key was that the missing player was none other than an important member of the Bianconeri's defense line. Although Paulson returned to the central defender's position to help defend, he could not replace Chiellini's role at all.

It can be clearly seen that in the defense just now, Paulson made a mistake, Lerotale panicked, and Buffon was powerless no matter how brave he was. "

"In the No.30 two minutes of the first half of the Italian national derby, Inter Milan, who are playing in the away game, temporarily leads [-]-[-] with Zhu Hantao's unparalleled goal."

After scoring the goal, the players of Inter Milan hugged each other excitedly. They thought not only that the score was ahead, that the victory of this game was in sight, but the more important thing was that the championship was about to be won.

The Nerazzurri coach Mourinho was also polite. First, he frantically raised his arms continuously. He felt that it was still not enough. There was a passionate kneeling from outside the sideline. Zhu Hantao, who scored the goal, did not kneel.

"Hahaha, this is a familiar scene. Inter Milan's coach Mourinho performed a kneeling celebration after Zhu Hantao scored a goal."

"Of course, Inter Milan was a little passive in the previous scene. Now Zhu Hantao's goal has changed the situation of the game. Mourinho's team is playing much better. No wonder the Portuguese are so excited."

That's when Chiellini dealt with the nosebleed, put on a clean new jersey and returned to the field, with Juventus kicking off.

However, the Bianconeri had just scored a goal suddenly. Some players seemed to have not recovered, and they were a little confused. Cambiasso intercepted the ball in the frontcourt, stole the ball from Thiago's feet, and then launched an attack again.

This time Zhu Hantao knocked back after receiving a pass from the right, and Stankovic shot with his right foot from the edge of the penalty area over the crossbar.

Buffon's goal kick went to the front court, Zanetti fought with Iaquinta on his right, and the captain of the Nerazzurri withstood Iaquinta to get the ball.

Lerotale aggressively tackled Ibrahimovic from behind with a scissor kick in the midfield, and was shown a yellow card by the referee Farina.

Ibrahimovic made a direct pass to the penalty area, Figo stabbed 11 meters in front of the goal and was knocked out by Buffon, and Molinaro rushed to clear the ball in front of Muntari!

"After leading the score, Inter Milan played more easily. They frequently got good chances in the frontcourt, but they were all stopped by Juventus' defensive players with fouls. The players on the field gradually became a little gunpowder."

Zhu Hantao knocked across the left, Figo broke through with the ball in the middle, dunked two Bianconeri defenders who were chasing back, and Buffon's shot in the penalty area was blocked!
Figo was brought down by Buffon and two Juventus defenders in the penalty area, but the referee Farina did not make any penalty.

"Figo made a wonderful breakthrough in the middle and hit the goal! Unfortunately, the home team's defensive players double-teamed the ball and Buffon blocked it.

Eh?The Portuguese fell in the penalty area and seemed unable to get up. The coaches of both sides were dissatisfied with the penalty. "

"Oops, there is an obvious bloodstain on Figo's calf. This ball was a foul in the penalty area. It should have been a penalty kick by Inter Milan. Watching the replay, Figo collided with Buffon when he shot. I don't know if I can continue."

Figo was injured in this attack and was helped out of the field by the team doctor for treatment.Mourinho urgently asked Balotelli to warm up on the sidelines.

Inter Milan can only play one less player for the time being.

But Juventus did not seize the opportunity, Del Piero sent a pass, Nedved's left-footed long-range shot from outside the penalty area was blocked by Inter Milan's defenders.

Fortunately, Figo's injury was not serious. After being treated by the team doctor, he returned to the field. After warming up, Bashen returned to the bench with a helpless face.

Inter Milan's attack, Zanetti wanted to pass the ball to Ibrahimovic, Ibrahimovic ran a straight line, but Zanetti passed the ball to the other side.

"It shouldn't be. Zanetti and Ibrahimovic did not form a tacit understanding. The two of them didn't think of going together in this cooperation."

"They didn't just play football together, they should be very familiar with each other. It is really inappropriate for such a situation to occur."

Muntari faced Chiellini's defensive foul and Juventus' free kick.

Del Piero took the free kick from a small angle on the left, and took a free kick with his right foot to shoot directly, which was blocked by Inter Milan goalkeeper Cesar.

Juventus won a corner kick. The left corner kick was too deep and too close to the goalkeeper. Cesar had the advantage of using his hands and successfully grabbed the ball.

After breaking through from the right, Figo kicked the ball into the penalty area. In the penalty area, Paulson and Ibrahimovic clashed in order to compete for position.

The referee Farina arrived in a hurry and separated the two.

"Ibrahimovic and Paulson seemed to have a bit of a dispute when fighting for positions in the penalty area, and the referee persuaded them to leave in time."

Zhu Hantao was a little worried at first, but when he saw Ibrahimovic gesturing to him, he understood that the Swede did it on purpose. He could see that the opponent was behind in the score and he felt a little impatient, which made him angry and wanted to end him.

It's a pity that the referee came in time and stopped the conflict that might have intensified.

Juventus kicked the ball from the left side and passed it diagonally into the penalty area. When Cordoba and Iaquinta fought for position, Iaquinta fell in the penalty area.

Muntari made a long pass with a big kick, but the ball was a bit too wide, and he passed the ball directly to Buffon.

Paulson passed the ball to the left from the center, Zanetti knocked down the opponent's full-back Molinaro who assisted him, and Juventus won a free kick on the left.

It was Del Piero who took the penalty, and the free kick was sent. He wanted to attack the goal directly, but the angle was too small, and it bounced off the Inter Milan defender in the wall.

"The first half is coming to an end. Mourinho's team is slowing down the pace of the game. For them, they are very satisfied with the current score at the end of the first half."

"Juventus still figured out how to attack Inter's goal and try to level the score before half-time so they can go into the second half with a better mentality."

At this moment, Juventus once again hit the front of Inter Milan's penalty area. Nedved dribbled the ball from the side and made an assault. When he was about to pass the ball, he was blocked by Inter Milan's central defender Samuel.

"Good goal! The Czech is still a threat. He looks angry. Farina awarded the goal to Inter Milan. Nedved thought it should have been their corner just now."

"The slow-motion replay came, and in the end it really hit the bottom line on Nedved's body. The referee's penalty is no problem."

One minute of stoppage time in the first half, in the last attack, Del Piero passed the ball into the penalty area, and Iaquinta's shot missed the goal.

"Farina blew the whistle for the end of the first half! Inter Milan temporarily leads Juventus [-]-[-] away."
