After leaving the ICU ward, Ricardo called Uncle Paul and briefly talked about Stella's situation.
In order to prevent Uncle Paul from worrying too much, Ricardo said that Stella was only slightly injured. She stayed in the hospital for two days for insurance purposes, and did not mention that Stella was operated on.
In this way, Uncle Paul was still worried. He hung up the phone and bought a plane ticket to Italy. He expected to arrive tomorrow morning.
Ricardo has been in the hospital all day. Maybe it was the first time in his life that he didn't think about football at all.
If it wasn't for Ronaldo, Adriano, etc. who called and asked him, he wouldn't even have thought of a match today, and didn't think about whether this team could enter the Champions League quarterfinals.
In the afternoon, Stella's agent arrived, a middle-aged man with gray hair but still handsome, named Valverde, with a stylish dress and decent talk. If he was ten years younger, Ricardo There must be a sense of crisis.
Valverde and Ricardo had only one side relationship before, and had not talked deeply.
He apologized to Ricardo, saying that he had just received news that he should not have Stella driven back to Milan by night.
The client gave a few words, he called a girl from the company to come and accompany Stella, and then liberated Ricardo.
Back at the hotel the next night, Ricardo suddenly remembered the game and turned on the TV to see that Inter Milan was 0: 1 away from home. The game time is already in the second half, the 65th minute.
Ricardo quickly checked the progress of the game with the hotel's computer and found that the goal was Stam. In the first half of the stoppage time, Pirlo overpowered Cordoba's header and broke the goal. Aldo guarded the door.
Mancini had to send a combination of Ronaldo and Martins due to Ricardo's temporary absence today. Vieri's condition is so bad that Mancini dare not trust him.
Ronaldo did not get a good chance under the defense of Stam and Nesta. However, he still used his personal ability to pose some threats to AC Milan's goal. Several shots made Dida very embarrassed. Especially in the 44th minute, he rushed away to Kafo, Gattuso and Nesta after taking the ball on the sideline, scoring long shots. Unfortunately, Dida bravely shot the ball out of the bottom line.
In addition, Mikhailovich's two-footed free kick quality is also very high. If Neidad had a **** help today, he could resist and defend the goal.
I commented that from the first half, the two teams should be evenly divided, and Inter Milan are not inferior to the opponents on both ends of the offense and defense, and even slightly better. But AC Milan's luck is obviously better, or the ability to seize opportunities is better.
Ricardo took his eyes off the computer screen and continued to watch the game live.
Because of the backwardness at this time, Mancini has replaced Martini with Vieri. Vieri used his strong body to impact AC Milan's defense line to provide support for Ronaldo.
In the midfield, Cambiasso, Belon and Stankovic were all more competitive, leaving only C. Zanetti to defend. The two full-backs Zanetti and Favalli also frequently assisted, obviously Mancini is determined Be sure to score away goals.
Subsequently, Mancini made another substitution adjustment. With the 2004 European Cup champion, the Greek Karagounis replaced Belon.
Seeing this substitution, Ricardo rolled his eyes. Karagounis has only played once at Inter Milan this season, and it is difficult to guarantee his condition. It is better to replace him with Cruz and play 3 forwards.
Sure enough, Karagunis, who just played, had two parking errors, and then a poor defense allowed Shevchenko to drive straight from the wing. Mikhailovich had to push him down to resolve the danger.
Pirlo took the free kick, and Ricardo couldn't help but get nervous. This position is quite good, and AC Milan has several high points. On the contrary, Inter Milan's back line is insufficiently tall and very disadvantaged.
Pirlo kicked the free kick with a large arc. Stam rushed forward and took both Mikhailovich and C. Zanetti, but the ball flew over his head. , Fly to the middle.
Shevchenko grabbed the header before Cordoba, the football flew into the far corner, Toldo failed to respond.
"Shevchenko goal! This is his 12th goal against Inter Milan in 6 years, scoring 2 goals per season on average, he is the nemesis of Inter! Stam attracted Inter Attention from the two high points, Shevchenko easily ambushed in the middle, AC Milan took a 2-0 lead! Inter Milan must work hard immediately, otherwise this score will be very unfavorable for their next round. "
Inter Milan's two goals are behind, and Ricardo's mood has become anxious. Although he was not on the field, this game was also closely related to him.
The next period, Inter Milan played very impatiently, the players continued to foul. Mancini soon replaced C. Zanetti with Van der Meade, played 424 formation, desperately wanted to get an away goal. And Ancelotti was there, replacing Ambassio Crespo with Ambrosini and playing a 451 defensive counterattack.
卡 Ricardo almost stood watching the last few minutes of the game.
87In the 87th minute, Van der Meade received a pass from Stankovic on the left. He dialed the ball and passed it immediately, hitting the back point. Karagounis stopped the ball on the right chest of the penalty area, but the stop was a bit big. He quickly chased it. Near the bottom line, he caught the ball, grabbed a low-footed volley shot from the right foot and banged at the door before Maldini destroyed An underline pops up outside the column.
卡 Ricardo held his head and sighed.
89In the 89th minute, Shevchenko volleyed left-footed 20 meters in front of the door, and Toledo pulled out the beam.
Pirlo took a tactical corner kick, Kaka defended the ball and prolonged the time around the bottom line Karagounis pushed the ball to break the ball, long pass to find Vieri.
Vieri did not make a mistake this time, he headed the ball to Stankovic, Stankovic immediately plugged into Ronaldo high-speed plug, forming a short 2 to 2 situation.
Ronaldo dribbles at high speed, Maldini dare not grab the ball, put his hands behind his back step by step, Ronaldo started his mastery, pendulum. Left and right, when he found that the center of gravity of Maldini had shifted, he made a decisive breakthrough in the opposite direction.
Maldini struggled to chase back, but he did not dare to tackle it. Now the back tackle is very strict. Unlike 98 years ago, he could only drag a heavy step, desperately chase, trying to squeeze Ronaldo with his body. .
But Ronaldo's not strong body has a surprisingly powerful confrontation. He almost carried Maldini and flew to the restricted area of AC Milan.
Dida decisively abandoned the goal and attacked, but Ronaldo stomped on his toes and passed the ball back. Vieri followed and nudged the empty goal.
Ricardo jumped up immediately!
"Ronaldo continues to dribble, Vieri goal! At the last moment Ronaldo ran the ball 40 meters, then passed selflessly to Vieri, Inter scored a valuable goal! Now they have an away goal!"
"In the next game, Inter Milan will have Ricardo back, and Adriano is likely to return from injury. Inter Milan still has hope!"
卡 Ricardo waved his punch hard. Yeah. It's just one goal behind, just pull it back in the next round. Inter Milan's road to the Champions League this season has not been cut off!
