In the end, Zanetti took the lead and poked the football out of the sideline.
After Viana took a side kick, Cristiano Ronaldo held the ball and attacked Zanetti on the spot. Finally, Seedorf, who was returning to defense, poked the football away.
Matthäus, with quick eyes and quick hands, knocked Seedorf down and committed a standard tactical foul to prevent the team from being hit by a counterattack.
But this series of confrontations was enough for Zanetti to feel how difficult Ronaldo was.
Forty-one minutes.
Deng Kai, who was passing the ball in the backcourt, suddenly made a long pass and passed it deep to the left.
"Cristiano Ronaldo! It's Cristiano Ronaldo again! Deng Kai is looking for Cristiano Ronaldo!"
"Zanetti was too close to the midfield when he followed Ronaldo, leaving a lot of space behind him."
"This is the second time Ronaldo has rushed out of the audience!"
"Zanetti can't keep up!"
"It's over, Ronaldo cut through Zanetti! Not as agile as Viana, just a quick word!"
"Goal...sigh! A shot of this quality is still a bit reluctant."
"Corner kick, Cristiano Ronaldo won a corner kick for the team."
"If Ronaldo had just passed the ball back to Viana, Viana would have been able to pass the football to either Drogba or Quaresma, and their shooting angle would have been much better than Ronaldo's. .”
"Cristiano Ronaldo is really not very good at passing the ball. As a left winger, he has played almost 30 games this season, but he has not received any assists!"
"Viana can't even help Ronaldo. If Viana and Quaresma cooperate, Viana can score at least five or six more goals this season!"
The stadium commentary clearly favors Viana.
They have never thought that without Ronaldo, who has a higher scoring efficiency than Quaresma, would Viana's assists be less?
In the stands, there were many team scouts hidden among the Inter Milan fans.
AC Milan, Lazio, Atalanta, Parma, Fiorentina... Without Fiorentina, they are now facing a financial crisis and are considering selling Rui Costa to tide over financial difficulties.
Most of these scouts came to see Viana, but some wanted to see what happened to Inter Milan.
After watching the game at halftime, many senior scouts had a question in their minds.
"Where did this Deng Kai come from?"
"Is it really Viana who led the team to defeat Inter Milan? Are you sure that Inter Milan's sports director is not this Deng Kai?"
"This Deng Kai is very good. Although he is not very prominent and his position is at the back, his playing style is very unsolvable!"
"Most of Sporting Lisbon's threatening attacks so far originally came from Deng Kai's instigation."
"Although the most impactful players are players such as Viana, Cristiano Ronaldo, Quaresma, and even Drogba. But Deng Kai almost played an important role in the relevant offenses."
"He knows where the football should be, his style of play is very advanced, he is the real commander."
"Deng Kai's vision is so good. Many of his passes seem simple and logical, but if you think about it carefully, you will find it incredible. How did he see those opportunities!"
"I even think that Inter Milan should actually buy Deng Kai instead of Viana?"
Many scouts were frightened by their own thoughts.
This is outrageous.
A boy not yet sixteen?
This age directly dissuades them.
For most teams, eighteen-year-old players already make them feel unreliable. No matter how good their performance is, they still have to observe and observe.
Not to mention a fifteen-year-old player?
These days, lottery tickets are not scratched so hard.
Most of the players were in their twenties before they became the main players in the team.
In the corner flag area, Deng Kai was gesturing with his teammates and arranging corner kick tactics.
His team status is revealed in every move he makes.
If they are just ordinary players, they will not take the initiative to arrange these at this time, but will just follow what is available during training.
That kind of subjective initiative is missing.
boom!
Deng Kai took a corner kick.
There was a crowd of people in the penalty area.
The Inter Milan players had no idea who Deng Kai was looking for.
But Sporting Lisbon's players knew because Director Kai's instructions were clear.
Everyone else's movements are creating opportunities for one person.
boom!
Fonte jumped up high and pushed the round football into the net with his square head.
The next moment, he rushed towards the corner flag area, but was brought down by Drogba halfway.
"Oh! It's Fonte! He actually scored!"
"This is this player's first goal in the UEFA Cup! He scored against Inter Milan's goal!"
"Fonte is not a particularly talented player. This may even be the highlight of his life! He is so lucky!"
"The most important thing is that at the beginning of the game, his mistake led to Recoba's lightning goal. Fonte has now completed his redemption!"
"This is a goal as good as gold!"
"Two to two! Sporting Lisbon equalized the score. In this way, the score between the two sides became 6 to 5! Sporting Lisbon overtook Inter Milan and advanced to the next round!"
"Are they going to eliminate Inter Milan at San Siro? This is really unbelievable!"
Sporting Lisbon players celebrated wildly.
The one they defeated was Inter Milan!
Fonte was so moved that he almost cried. He was pushed down by everyone and stretched out his hand to Deng Kai who was walking from a distance.
It was Master Kai who made it possible for him!
When Deng Kai gestured for a corner kick, he not only said he was looking for Fonte, but also asked his teammates to cover and run for Fonte.
Is this the kind of treatment a mediocre central defender can get?
In terms of headers, Drogba and Barzagli are ranked higher than Fonte, and their headers are better than Fonte.
But when Deng Kai also joined the game of stacking Arhats, Fonte became desperate.
He's at the bottom.
Deng Kai pressed his teammates while questioning Ronaldo: "Can't you see, Ronaldo, I told you to look for you, but you actually ran in cover. It's hard to imagine that you helped Fonte score."
Cristiano Ronaldo looked confused: "Huh? Didn't Tactics No. 9 ask for Fonte? Qibi's gesture is for me to pull? I hate helping others pull, I'm always unhappy!"
Deng Kai made a fist with his right hand, stretched out his index finger and then curled it up: "This is nine, what I am competing with is seven!"
This time the whole team was stunned.
Drogba said with a grimace: "So the Chinese numbers and gestures Ronaldo taught us are wrong? Cristiano Ronaldo, your Chinese is not standard enough!"
Cristiano Ronaldo shook his head: "Impossible, I learned the standard version! Seven should be pinched together with the thumb, index finger, and middle finger!"
Deng Kai slapped his forehead: "Oh, that's my problem. In my hometown in Sichuan, there are many people who compete with seven, and their curves are somewhat similar to nine, but the bends are not as severe."
