Football God.

It snowed before the game, this is indeed a result that many people did not expect.

The snowflakes are not big and will not affect the progress of the game, but even sporadic snowflakes may make the field slippery and the ball will be correspondingly difficult to control.

These are not difficult for the players in the English League. After all, they often face possible rainy weather all year round, which is very practical in life.

But even so, Heinrich still specially called Schmeichel over and gave a few words of advice.

Among them, especially when it comes to Inter Milan striker Eto'o: "Pay special attention to his defense."

"I know, boss." Schmeichel looked serious.

Heinrich shook his head: "No, you don't know, the average striker won't sneak up and kick the ball into the net when you kick off the ball."

Schmeichel: ...Huh?

Heinrich said earnestly: "If he comes to squeeze you when you are holding the ball, don't make a fuss, and don't let him steal the ball, understand?"

Schmeichel: There is such an operation!

Compared to Heinrich giving Schmeichel a long posture over there, Kaka pulled James past him and told him carefully.

After a long time in Serie A, Kaka still has some experience with Inter Milan, especially focusing on telling James about the opponent's players.

These were actually mentioned in the team meeting before, but James was not the starting player at the time, so the pertinence was not strong.

Now that James is temporarily pushed up, it is natural to try to talk to him alone.

Guti sat next to Redondo and let out a sigh of relief.

Being an assistant coach is not just about helping the head coach make suggestions on the court. In many cases, some basic work before the start of the game also needs to be done by the assistant coach.

Redondo often likes to get in touch with these things. After all, in the future, he knows that he will go out and take charge of his own affairs. It is not harmful to learn more about the team's operational affairs.

He was fiddling with the record form that will be used later, when he suddenly heard Guti's sigh, Redondo said subconsciously: "Head up, chest out."

Guti subconsciously followed suit. In fact, in the process of getting along, Redondo asked him a lot, even though Guti didn't understand why, he was obedient.

The only difference is that in the past, Redondo was only responsible for giving instructions to his own silly children, but now he will follow up with an explanation: "In this game, you are in the midfield and you have to bring a young man. Your confidence is right. The whole team is important."

No matter what mood you are in, act confident.

Even though Guti is not the captain, as a veteran of the team, he has the task of stabilizing the morale of the army.

Guti recognized Redondo's words, and immediately straightened his back, but said in his mouth: "Actually, I haven't had anyone in charge of connecting midfielders for a long time."

In the previous few seasons in Real Madrid, his task was to make up where no one was, not fixed.

When he arrived at Leeds United, in order to allow him to integrate better, Heinrich would often send a player with better ball control to partner with him.

Guti does not need to consider the issue of series connection, nor does he need to think too much about retreating defense, but instead he overwhelms the offense more.

This game is actually the first time that Guti has become the starting core on behalf of Leeds United.

Even though Guti had a close relationship with Heinrich, he was still his junior, but Guti knew in his heart that the outcome and performance of this game would directly affect his future position in the team.

Switching to the Golden Wolf a few months ago, I'm afraid I wouldn't care whether Leeds United valued themselves or not.

I don't care if I pay attention to it or not, it's better if I can make myself retired, go back to Real Madrid directly, don't care about the rest!

But now, Guti has a new pursuit, a new goal.

Even if returning to Real Madrid is still his ultimate goal, but before that, he has to watch his son grow up, study hard with Redondo, and play well in the game, not to disappoint those who love him.

Sometimes the more you pursue, the more pressure you will have. Guti is obviously at this stage.

Redondo glanced at Guti, then suddenly stretched out his hand and put it on Guti's shoulder.

Guti was taken aback for a moment, and then he felt the man hugging him very manly.

After Redondo let go of his hand, Guti heard Redondo say to himself: "I told you some things a long time ago, and now, I don't mind saying it again."

Guti looked at him, blinked, and listened quietly.

Redondo smiled. In fact, he seldom smiled at Guti, and most of the time he was serious with this rebellious boy.

But now, Redondo looks much more relaxed, and his tone is very brisk: "You are very good. At that time, you liked to learn my style of play. I am not happy, not only because you did not imitate me, but also because I know what you are capable of in midfield, and dropping back is not the way to go."

Guti was slightly taken aback.

"But in the final analysis, I have always thought you are excellent, like a gem, shining brightly." Redondo reached out and shook the notebook in his hand, "I will watch your game carefully, and I am sure , I will write down your name and your performance well."

Guti's waywardness once disappointed Redondo.

However, today, Redondo gradually understands that this person's stubbornness is probably his best advantage.

People with pure minds often know how to work hard, don't they?

Before going on the court, Heinrich looked at Guti who was like a bloody chicken with a dazed expression.

He couldn't help asking Mr. Byron: "What's wrong with him?"

Mr. Byron also looked puzzled: "I don't know either, it seems that after talking to Redondo just now, that's it."

Heinrich blinked, but couldn't find the truth for a while.

But he didn't have time to ask. He took his own team and followed the players out of the player channel.

Inter Milan's head coach Benitez waited at the entrance of the player tunnel, and shook hands with Heinrich when he came out.

Heinrich also gave Benitez a friendly hug. Although the seemingly stubborn Spanish coach obviously didn't like Heinrich's over-enthusiasm, Heinrich insisted.

This also made it difficult for Benitez to say what he had prepared. Everyone he knew said Heinrich was a gentle person, but Benitez felt that he was not gentle at all.

The attack power is obviously very strong.

If Heinrich knew what this chubby coach was thinking, he would have to praise it. It is true that people who talk less can see more clearly.

He hugged Benitez just to make things difficult for him, nothing else.

After all, it's a Champions League game. Hello, me, everyone's good story, it doesn't belong to them.

After the two separated, Benitez was frowning, as if something was bothering him.

Heinrich walked towards the visiting team coach's bench with a calm smile on his face, instead of going to sit down, he stood directly on the sidelines.

On the court, the players from both sides took a group photo in the thin snowflakes, picked sides, shook hands, and then ran to their own half.

"Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!"

"With the whistle of the referee, the game officially begins!" Jack Brown was still in charge of commentating the game, his voice was obviously excited.

After the start of the game, as Leeds United's offensive wave after wave, Jack Brown seemed even more excited.

For Jack Brown, this game is a game that Leeds United will definitely win!

The reason is simple. Leeds United have outstanding records against Real Madrid and AC Milan in the group stage.

With the departure of Mourinho, the strength of the current Inter Milan team has dropped sharply. At least the media in England agree that this is a good signing, and Leeds United will pass the test without any danger.

The situation after the opening also confirmed the thoughts of these people.

Heinrich looked at the game data recorded by Redondo.

In 10 minutes, he had six shots and four shots on target, which is definitely a dazzling statistic.

Compared with the suppression of Leeds United, Inter Milan's data of only one shot seems a bit pitiful.

However, there was no relaxed look on Heinrich's face.

He turned his head to look at Benitez, and his intuition told him that this chubby coach was digging a hole for him to jump!

Heinrich's plan before the game was that the team relied on long passes to find opportunities, even close to defensive counterattacks.

But after the opening, where did the defensive counterattack come from?Instead, it became a halftime offensive and defensive battle!

Leeds United's frequent pressure, but the back line did not dare to rush forward, which directly caused the team's midfield to be hollow. Inter Milan's only shot was to catch a frontcourt coordination error and hit a Leeds United counterattack!

Heinrich would not wait for Inter Milan to wake him up with a goal. He stepped forward and shouted at the players on the field: "Control, control! Control the ball!"

James was closer to Heinrich. Hearing this, he started to organize the players to pass the ball without even thinking about it.

Next, the fans saw a very strange scene.

Neither side seems to want to attack. After catching the ball and passing it back, the goalkeepers on both sides seem to be their respective backline players, participating in passing and receiving the ball at every turn.

Compared with the previous offensive and defensive battles, now they are more cautious.

The scene is a bit boring.

At this moment, Inter Milan took advantage of an offensive opportunity and caused the second threatening shot of the game!

When Schmeichel is without the ball, he usually stays on the line of the penalty area, ready to respond to his teammates at any time.

When Eto'o shot, he took half a step back alertly, jumped high, and held the ball firmly in his arms.

This shot is full of power and the viewing angle is too straight, which is not too difficult for Schmeichel.

But just as he hugged the ball and was about to bounce it on the ground twice before driving out, he found an Inter Milan player in a blue and black jersey walking towards him.

Schmeichel narrowed his eyes, Eto'o?

The striker, known as the Cameroon Cheetah, approached cautiously, as if only to pose a threat to Schmeichel.

Schmeichel suddenly recalled what Heinrich said before the game.

This guy, it seems, likes to steal the ball...

At this moment, Eto'o suddenly ran over!

This kind of situation where the goalkeeper takes the ball after saving, there is no free kick for goal kick. In other words, as long as the ball is out of the goalkeeper's control, anyone can grab it!

It's just that few people usually do this, and now Schmeichel obviously has met a good player.

The Danish goalkeeper quickly took the ball in his hand and gave Eto'o a look: Don't do this to me.

Eto'o replied with a smile: We'll see.

Schmeichel: ...What's the matter with the sudden anger.
