The game has developed into this situation, and no one could have imagined it before the game.
Who would have thought that Rome could lead the seemingly powerful Inter Milan by two goals? Who dares to say that Inter Milan can pull three goals in a row when two goals are behind?
The ups and downs of the game, the fans are happy, they have an extra talk, and will even talk about this game many years later.
The bitterness is the head coach of both sides. Adjustments must be made to the situation on the field.
Roma have just experienced a coach change, and last season Capello, who led them to the second best result, went to Juventus, and Prandelli, the newly taken over team, was seriously ill and had to resign. Coaching.
At this time, Voller from Germany took over the team, but Voller failed to smooth the Rome locker room, especially in conflict with Totti, completely failed to get the support of the players, and had to resign after the last round of the league. .
This game led Rome to play with Delneri, who had led Chievo to a good result.
Everyone knows that Delneri's qualifications, achievements, and level are not enough to coach such a famous door as Rome. He is a firefighter.
Before the game, "Roman Sporting News" said pessimistically, as long as the Roman team did not suffer a major defeat in this game, even if Delneri worked hard. If you can get a draw, thank you even more.
No one could have imagined that Rome, who had obvious internal and external troubles, dared to play offensive football in this game, and they also succeeded, at least for a period of time leading by two goals.
It was only the sudden outbreak of Ricardo that ruined their efforts.
The 3: 2 score didn't last long. Just 3 minutes later, Inter Milan launched the offensive again. Zemalia launched an offensive pass to find Adriano. After Adriano unloaded the ball, knocked to the middle, and Ricardo appeared in a key position. After holding the ball, he did not hesitate and did not dribble the fighter.
"Chinese boy" Recoba plugged in at high speed, took the ball over Mex, shot from a small angle, and the football went straight to the far corner, once again breaking the ten finger mark of Pelizzoli.
Inter Milan leads 4: 2!
Mancini couldn't help but stand up and applaud the players this time.
Opposite him, Delneri had a pale face, and although his eyes were scorched, he did not command quietly.
Perhaps Delneri himself knew that he didn't speak Totti well enough. With other yelling and wasting saliva, let Totti cheer up and lead the team to fight back.
"Wolf King" is the king of wolves. When it is time to show his muscles, he never disappoints. As long as the "Wolf King" is present, the wolves are always full of combat power and dare to deal with any strong enemy.
Just 3 minutes later, Zemalia fouled at the front of the penalty area, and Totti took the free kick.
The Olympic Stadium made a shouting call. Totti did not live up to the fans' expectations. The free kick he took was a clean shot into the dead end of the goal. Toledo did not make a rescue action. This ball is already out of reach of manpower.
Inter Milan now leads by only one goal.
Mancini couldn't sit still. He quickly made substitution adjustments, replaced Ricardo with C. Zanetti, hoarded four muscle players in the midfield, and Recoba played two forwards.
Ricardo was a little glum. No one wants to be replaced halfway in such an important game. Mancini noticed his depressed expression and stepped forward to comfort him: "You have done a great job and made a great contribution to the team. But the team needs defense now, this is just a tactical substitution."
Ricardo nodded dumbly for understanding, but sniffed in his heart. Without creating a threat in the frontcourt, the Roma team can attack even more recklessly.
Although his physical fitness has deteriorated significantly due to his participation in defense, he has now reduced his dribbling breakthrough after taking the ball, but he can also use his pass to comb his offense in the frontcourt to create murder.
After his own end, Inter Milan must face a big counterattack from the opponent.
On paper, such midfield defensive capabilities should be strong: Davis, Cambiasso, Stankovic, c. Zanetti. But in actual combat, their defense is always frightening.
One-on-one defense, each of them is strong. However, the defensive line formed together gave the opponent many opportunities to fight back.
Of course, the Roma team was under pressure and Inter Milan also got some opportunities, but the connection between Recoba and Adriano was not ideal.
Adriano will also pass a few kicks when Ricardo is on the field. After Ricardo went off the field, Adriano got the ball by himself.
Recoba also seems to want to prove himself within a limited playing time. For a time Inter Milan only had an offensive but did not create enough threats.
In the 74th minute, Rome got another free kick opportunity. Totti sent the ball to the front. De Rossi stopped the ball in his chest and lifted his leg to sweep.
Taldo seemed to be blocked by the crowd, failed to respond in time, and the football slowly rolled into the near corner.
4: 4, the Roman team equalized the score!
Mancini replaced Recoba with super substitute Cruz, but Cruz failed to perform magically in this game.
In the end Inter Milan and Rome could only shake hands and each side scored a point.
At the post-match press conference, Mancini had a bitter expression: "The guys have done a great job and we deserve a victory. But Totti made our 3 points to 1 with two free kicks Points Our defense needs to be adjusted. It is intolerable to lose two goals in the opening 9 minutes. "
"When everyone makes a mistake, we should not blame Zanetti. He is a good captain and a good player. I believe he will give us a better game in the future."
"Ricardo's performance is very good. One goal, three assists, and our four goals are all related to him. I think he has made a great contribution to the team. Substituting him does not mean that I He was dissatisfied, it was just a tactical need, and I needed a more defensive player on the court. "
"This game has passed and we need to learn from it and look forward. The season is still long and we have enough time to adjust. I insist that Inter Milan has the ability to compete for the championship."
Returning to Pinettina's bus, Mancini couldn't help thinking about why this game had such a dramatic change, why it went from two goals behind, to four goals and two goals leading, and then being equalized? What happened during this period?
So as soon as he returned to Pinettina, he found the video of the game and watched it again and again.
