It is obvious that defensive counterattack is the overall tactic of the two teams, but they are completely different on the path they take.

Inter Milan plays as much as possible to support the offensive threat, so it can be seen that Sneijder is the core of the frontcourt, and other players perform their own duties. In defense, they are the right soldiers and do not deliberately strengthen local defense. The threat point against Monaco is against Monaco. Perhaps in Mourinho's view, although Monaco has its own characteristics, it has not yet reached the level of Messi or Ronaldo, and needs to press down or jointly defend multiple people.

There is nothing wrong with this. After all, Gareth Bale, who has the most speed advantage, will not have a good effect in the joint defense of multiple players. Instead, it may allow him to use his speed to get rid of it in the running position because of the loss of position. It is better to compress space and curb the inside line, which can make him threatened, but it must reduce his threat level!

Monaco is taking another path. Judging from the point where the midfield forced the ball to frequently transfer to Pandev, and then concentrated on siege Pandev to suppress, Monaco's "layout" was significant in the early stages of the game.

If you cannot form advantages through the overall front, you have to create them bit by bit!

In the 18th minute of the game, when Inter Milan attacked the frontcourt again, Sneider encountered a frontal interception from two Monaco's midfielders, he quickly hit the ball to assist. Zanetti, who just dribbled the ball and encountered Matic's press. At this time, Zanetti hit the ball across the right. In his opinion, he had already restrained Matic for Pandev. Pandev only needs to face Moro, and there should be no big problem.

But he was wrong!

Pandefu encountered Moro's close-up pressure before touching the ball. Although it is hard to say that Moro is a star who can definitely shine in the big scene, he has a touch of ruthlessness in his bones that Situ Yunbing admired. Otherwise, he would not have rushed forward again and again to defend the Situ Yunbing who cultivated him. His style on the field and off the field is exactly the same.

After Monaco gained an advantage in defending Pandev, Morro's form surged significantly, which was an increase in players' confidence in the game!

Pan Dev, on the contrary, failed to achieve the qualification results after several consecutive cooperation or shots, and even once he was intercepted and gave the opponent a chance to counterattack. His confidence was disturbed, and his mentality was not as steady and strong as Moro.

As soon as Pandefu controlled the ball, Morro broke the ball like a wolf and tiger, and almost threw Pandefu to the ground!

When Pandev protected the ball and wanted to re-control the ball, Moro seized his position and took the initiative to fight, causing Pandev to fall to the ground with an unbalanced and he immediately complained to the referee Weber, but the referee Weber shook his head at him and ran to the backcourt of Inter Milan, because Monaco's fast attack came to the city after 3 seconds!

Situ Yunbing saw Pandev falling to the ground in a embarrassed manner on the sidelines. His eyes suddenly became sharp and he gestured to the midfielders. Nkuru, Perez, and Matic slightly pressed forward!

The back line tightened, and Modesto's position was also pressed forward!

Monaco has already played a weak point in Inter Milan in the midfield, and now we have to maximize the advantage occupied by this point!

Garez Bale quickly hit the ball in front of the middle of the penalty area after receiving a pass from Moro on the side of the front court. Suarez pulled out of the penalty area to receive the support. At this time, Cambiaso returned to defend and intercepted. Suarez knocked the ball diagonally back to the left side in front of the penalty area.

Maicon guarded the outside to guard Garez Bale, but Morro did not return, he turned into the inward track to receive Suarez's pass, Cambiaso immediately moved to block Moro's shooting angle, but Morro hit the ball across the right side.

Perez rushed up quickly. Although Sneijder retreated, he was still two meters away from Perez.

The barrier effect in front of Inter Milan's penalty area has disappeared, and Monaco's counterattack is absolutely fast, accurate and ruthless!

Zanetti has just returned!

But it is no longer possible to interfere with Perez.

At this time, Perez calmly passed the ball straight into the right side of the penalty area.

Suarez dribbled the ball and removed his strength in the running position. When he made a breakthrough, he swayed his body and wanted to deceive Samuel's center of gravity, but Samuel remained as a mountain. Suarez's fake move gave Samuel the chance to intercept the ball. Samuel was as hard as a rock and difficult to shake.

When Suarez realized that Samuel took the opportunity to intercept the ball, the rhythm under his feet was already messy, and the breakthrough changed to a protective ball, but Samuel still stretched out his leg and poked the ball out. Suarez was extremely helpless and could only turn around and snatch it back.

The good thing is that Monaco has indeed participated in the defense of the whole team.

The football that Samuel poked out rolled in front of Zivo. When Suarez rushed towards him, Zivo could not find a suitable pass point because the pass to the middle of the backcourt might be broken by Suarez. Zivo obviously did not dare to take the risk and knock the ball back to the defender.

So when Ziwo cleared the ball's big foot, the football flew to the left side of the middle of the front court.

Etoo was about to respond, but Modesto rushed up from behind and jumped to him and headed the ball forward.

After controlling the ball, Witsel continued to launch an offensive. Although Inter Milan's defense line seemed to have been adjusted to the position, Witsel's pass over the top and diagonal pass on the right side of the frontcourt also shocked Inter Milan's back line!

Gareth Bale cut inward and entered the left rib of the penalty area. Witsel's over-top pass was for him!

But Brazilian veteran Lucio steadily took off and headed the ball after taking a few steps back. Although Gareth Bale was in place, he did not take off.

The football, which was cleared by the header, flew to the front of Sanetti. Sanetti turned around and was about to take the ball, but what caught his eye was Morro cut across from the side and drove the ball first!

At this moment, not only the audience, but also the Inter Milan generals felt the fierce momentum of Monaco's counterattack and counterattack!

Mourinho's expression was cold and his brain was rotating rapidly. The root of Monaco's strength was Pandev, which not only made an Inter Milan player almost suppressed and had no confidence and didn't know how to deal with him on the court, but also made Monaco have one more person in the offense!

The whole world saw Morrow unscrupulously playing wildly in Inter Milan’s half!

When Moro dribbled into the middle, he led Zanetti and Cambiaso to attack him.

Although Inter Milan's defense is complete, it has lost its ability to think. It is completely following its instinct. Wherever the ball is, its attention is there, and it actively intercepts the ball.

But Moro passed the ball diagonally in front of the penalty area before the two attacked each other!

At this time, Sanetti turned around and chased back, but found that Kong Wu's powerful Matic rushed past him, stopped the ball and pulled the ball horizontally to adjust it, and then shot with a strong shot with his right foot!

Football flies straight to the upper right corner of the goal!

Monaco fans in the Bernabeu stands were very excited. They have witnessed Matic's long-range shots many times in the past year and a half!

Although others also have the ability to pass through Yang in a hundred steps, Matic has the highest efficiency in long-range shooting according to statistics!

Because he doesn't kick easily and won't shoot as many shots as the forwards, his long-range shooting conversion rate is the highest!

Even Situ Yunbing is full of infinite expectations for this ball!

Monaco has not created a decent threat before, but the threat formed by the sudden attack is enough to give the opponent a fatal blow!

I saw the football that was bombed by Matic flying towards the upper right corner of the goal like a cannonball. Although it was not an absolute blind spot, it definitely had a high probability of scoring.

At the critical moment, Cesar's body spread his wings like an eagle. His left finger touched the football and caused the football to change slightly backwards and rise above the crossbar!

Matic breathed a sigh of relief, with an extremely unwilling expression.

The Inter Milan generals looked a little nervous, they all knew they had just escaped!

"Cesar! Cesar's world-class save resolves Matic's long shot!

Before, we saw Inter Milan taking the initiative on the field and constantly attacking Monaco's goal, but Monaco was not willing to be passively beaten. After a wave of continuous counterattacks and fast breaks, they worked hard to create opportunities. Matic's long-range shot was just one finger from Cesar!"

When Monaco was preparing to take a corner kick, Situ Yunbing made a gesture on the sidelines to restore Monaco's formation.

Monaco cannot continuously suppress and steal this way, and it will cause a threat. Inter Milan players will retreat when they come back to their senses to improve the defense efficiency of the defense line, and then concentrate on their counterattack. In that case, the more they press forward, the more risk they will be on the defensive line will become greater and greater.

It is difficult to form an advantage in this game within a long period of time, and Monaco's chances only exist within a short period of "sudden attack".

There is no big problem when you retreat and continue to "lay out" according to the previous ideas. At least you can completely suppress Pandev so much that you can't find the North, which is beneficial to Monaco as a whole.

The overall battle between Situ Yunbing and Mourinho is definitely in the area and details!

Mourinho thought for a while on the sideline and called Pandev in front of him after he successfully defended Monaco's corner kick attack in Inter Milan.

He did not deliberately motivate Pandev to fight toughly or give him chicken blood. That was the most superficial adjustment because he understood Pandev. On a spiritual level, Pandev could be said to be difficult to compare with players like Sneider, Sanetti, and Milito. When he did not perform well, it would not be of much use to give him any chicken soup. It would not restore him to his vitality, and he would not be able to show his strength and show his wonderful performance. If this works, then the head coach's job would be simple. He would just think about how to make chicken soup for the players to drink every day.

On the contrary, Mourinho still wants Pandev to play a tactical role. He can perform poorly, but his tactical role can serve the team.

After Pandev returned to the court, he obviously pressed forward, and he went directly to the right winger position that was almost parallel to Milito!

In this way, even if Monaco's left-back Moro wins in the local confrontation with Pandev, he will not catch Inter Milan's midfielder off guard. There is still plenty of time to return to defense or defend on the spot.

At the same time, Mourinho made gestures to the backcourt players, and Inter Milan quickly made adjustments!
Chapter completed!
