Lucio's key goal brought Inter Milan's lead to two points.
Now not only the fans in the stands are extremely excited, but even the Inter Milan coaching staff is going crazy!
They have seen victory and they are sure that the championship trophy will belong to the great Nerazzurri!
Everyone knows that when Mourinho's team leads by one goal, it is almost impossible to win!
It was the same at Inter Milan, it was the same at Chelsea and Porto!
And if Mourinho's team leads by two goals, then the game will be won!
At this time, Mourinho called over the ecstatic Inter Milan players to make tactical arrangements.
At the same time, he quickly made substitution adjustments.
Eto'o and Milito are replaced, replaced by Thiago Motta and Materazzi!
Motta and Cambiasso partnered as a double midfielder, and Materazzi formed a three-centre defender with Lucio and Samuel!
Inter Milan's formation instantly changed to 5-4-1, leaving only Adriano in the frontcourt, and all other players withdrew.
Inter Milan's bus tactics have really begun now!
On Monaco's side, Yunsheng also quickly made personnel adjustments. He replaced Ljungberg, whose physical fitness had declined, and replaced him with the young Wang Chuhe.
Diego Costa, Dong Fangzhuo, and Gervinho are all ready to go, waiting for the chance to play.
Now the coaches of both teams have left a substitution place in case of emergency, and they have played the best cards in their hands.
Now Monaco's lineup has also undergone some changes. With the adjustment of Inter Milan, Yunsheng asked Beckham and Wang Chuhe to press boldly, leaving Makelele alone in the backcourt. Even Heinze and Sun Jihai frequently pressed Assists.
After all, Inter Milan's offensive opportunities have stagnated now. Except for Adriano, all Inter Milan players are huddled in their own half and defending with all their strength.
Yun Sheng looked at his watch. It was now 70 minutes, and there were still 20 minutes left before the end of the game.
It is simply too difficult to score two goals for Mourinho's team in just 20 minutes.
Just after Monaco lost the ball, when Yunsheng saw Mourinho calling the substitutes to his side, he already had a plan. His purpose of replacing Wang Chuhe was simple - to break the intensive defense!
In today's international football, there are not many ways to break dense defenses. Free kick tactics, long-range shots, etc. are all recognized methods of breaking defenses.
Yunsheng sent Wang Chuhe, who was good at long-range shots and free kicks, hoping that he could use his advantages to score goals.
Now he is pressing Beckham, who is also excellent at set pieces and long-range shots, just to let the two of them make a fuss in the midfield.
In the following time, Monaco carried out offensive and defensive drills in the Inter Milan half.
"Gudjohnsen broke into the penalty area, but he had no chance to kick off!"
"Pass the ball to Recoba, Recoba can't even turn around!"
"Back pass to Beckham, Beckham hit a curve ball! The ball was saved by Cesar!"
Yun Sheng on the sidelines kept looking at his watch. Every passing minute made him more nervous.
"This time it was Saviola's forced cut! His shot was blocked by the Inter defender!"
"There are too many people in the penalty area and it's impossible to shoot through!"
"The ball fell to Wang Chuhe's feet! Wang Chuhe hit the ground with his kick! Zanetti at the back post made a clearance!"
With continuous attacks, Monaco had no choice.
The time has reached the 80th minute, and the Monaco players are becoming more and more anxious, even a little desperate.
A few minutes ago, Yun Sheng also played his last card. He replaced Gudjohnsen, who was physically exhausted, and replaced him with Dong Fangzhuo, hoping to make a fuss about his impact.
At the same time, Yun Sheng also cast the last spell in his hand that could be used now - Grade A [Sorrowful Soldiers Will Win].
Now that the team has reached a stalemate, both players and fans are in mourning. Can this spell work?
At this moment, there is nothing Yunsheng can do about this game. In the following time, he can only rely on the individual performance of the players.
Guys, the rest is up to you!
Now the time has come to the 82nd minute, and Monaco is still trailing 1 to 3. Just after Dong Fangzhuo came on, he shot a cold shot from the corner of the penalty area. The ball was saved by Cesar and gave Monaco a corner kick.
At this time, Beckham and Wang Chuhe were both preparing to go to the corner kick area. They had just taken turns taking corner kicks.
But at this moment, Recoba suddenly walked over: "I will take the kick. You guys wait for the opportunity outside the penalty area."
When the two heard this, they immediately understood what Recoba wanted to do.
The team had conducted similar training before. If the corner kick tactics failed to open up the situation, some changes would have to be made. After a simple pass, several midfielders such as Beckham and Wang Chuhe were in the penalty area. Long shot from outside.
Recoba walked to the corner kick area. He saw Saviola wanting to respond. He waved his hand: "I don't need a response here. I need someone in the penalty area. You can go to the near post and wait."
At this time, the Inter Milan players felt a sense of urgency. Even Saviola, who had been of little use in corner kick tactics before, was now running flexibly in the penalty area.
Monaco center back Kompany is also waiting in the center of the penalty area, and Beckham and Wang Chuhe are watching eagerly at the top of the penalty area.
The Inter Milan players were ready and staring in the direction of Recoba.
Cesar positioned himself slightly further forward to prevent Saviola from attacking from the front. This small Argentine man is very fast.
Standing next to the corner flag, Recoba looked at the direction of the goal, then at the position of his teammates, and took a deep breath.
In fact, he had already thought about how to deal with it.
Many neutral live TV hosts have lost hope in Monaco. They saw Recoba's corner kick and were not optimistic about it.
"In the five minutes just now, Monaco won three corner kicks, all of which were defended by Inter Milan. You must know that Mourinho is best at defense. According to statistics, the number of corner kicks conceded by Inter Milan this season ranks first in the entire Europe. At the end! They are the masters of defending corners in Europe!"
"Who will be awarded Recoba's corner kick this time? Kompany, Dong Fangzhuo, Saviola and others in the penalty area? Or Beckham and Wang Chuhe outside the penalty area? They are all surrounded by Inter Milan players who want to score goals. The ball is so difficult.”
In the live broadcast room of Italian TV, they had even begun to prepare to celebrate.
"In ten minutes, we can usher in the birth of the first Triple Crown in the history of Serie A! Long live Serie A!"
In the live broadcast room of Huaguo Sports Channel 5, everyone was extremely nervous, looking forward to the penalty kick.
But the host Li Feixiang looked at Recoba and suddenly had a special premonition.
"I think this ball will probably score!"
