King of World Football: Chapter 156 : Inter\'s curse?

On December 15th, in the 14th round of Serie A, Inter Milan challenged Atlanta away.

Logically speaking, Inter Milan and Atlanta did not have much intersection, but in the two confrontations last season, Inter Milan lost completely for the first time and narrowly won the second time.

If Atlanta is a strong team, then this record is understandable, but they have been hovering in the bottom of the standings all year round, facing Juventus, AC Milan and other giants, they don't have much resistance, but they are particularly active against Inter Milan. Confusing.

No, just 17 minutes into the game, Inter Milan conceded a goal inexplicably. Atlanta winger Komandini dribbled the ball and forced a pass from the bottom. Inter Milan defender Koko in front of the goal confiscated his foot for a while and blocked the ball into his own goal.

Inter Milan has always held the initiative on the field, and even tried to speed up the pace after conceding a goal.

In the 19th minute, Zanetti moved a long pass to the right. After Wang Feng received the ball, he sent a diagonal ball. Unfortunately, Caron in the penalty area reacted a little slower and failed to catch up with the ball.

Three minutes later, Wang Feng dribbled the ball past Carrera on the right and then crossed it to Caron, but his shot went over the crossbar.

After another 2 minutes, Inter Milan made a comeback. Cannavaro sent a long pass in the backcourt. Tistuta, his low shot angle was too direct and was confiscated by goalkeeper Taibi.

Within ten minutes, Inter Milan created several very threatening attacks, but all of them returned without success. Wang Feng looked at the opponent's goal depressedly, feeling that he really lacked a little luck today.

"The first half of the game is coming to an end. We can see that Inter Milan created a lot of shooting opportunities, but none of them were converted into goals. They are still behind 0:1."

"The Inter Milan players on the field seemed to be a little anxious. When they were grabbing the ball just now, Inter Milan central defender Dalma pushed down the Atlanta central defender Zauri who was protecting the ball in a fit of frustration. The referee showed a yellow card as expected."

"When entering the halftime break, they need to adjust their emotions. After all, there are still 45 minutes in the game. Let's watch this attack. It's beautiful. Wang Feng steals the ball from Zauri's feet cleanly!"

After Wang Feng steals the ball in the midfield, he quickly dribbles the ball to the frontcourt. He and Dalma used two-to-one cooperation to get rid of the Atlanta central defender Zenoni who came to defend him. Defender Paganin formed a one-on-one.

Wang Feng moved forward in small steps. After approaching Paganin, his left shoulder sank and he suddenly accelerated. Paganin thought that Wang Feng was going to cut in the middle, so he quickly stretched his legs to block it. Unexpectedly, he actually went down. He could only watch Wang Feng helplessly. Pass the ball by.

After entering the penalty area, Wang Feng easily crossed the ball and found the top of Caron's head. The latter followed the trend and finally broke through Atlanta's goal to tie the score!

Entering the midfield with a draw is completely different from being behind. The restless hearts of the Inter Milan players also calmed down. They talked and laughed in the locker room. Scoring a goal and scoring three points is not a problem.

The situation is still under the control of Inter Milan, but in the 69th minute, Atalanta launched a defensive counterattack. Zauri's cross was picked by Cannavaro. Forward Shodati's body, Shodati reacted quickly to control the ball, and then pierced the visiting team's goal with a powerful shot.

Inter Milan is behind again! This was Atlanta's first threatening attack in the second half, and it was also the first shot, which unexpectedly succeeded.

Throughout the history of world football, there are always some unpopular games that no one can explain, forming various strange spells.

Seeing the home team players celebrating wildly and the cheering fans in the stands, Wang Feng raised his forehead in frustration. Is there really a so-called curse, and Atlanta is the curse of Inter Milan?

It is Wang Feng's creed to never give up no matter what, even if he is against the illusory fate!

In the 81st minute, Atlanta showed its flaws. Comandini made a pass error and was directly intercepted by Materazzi. He sent a long pass to find Caron in the frontcourt, but the defender took the ball back to the midfield.

Di Biagio got the ball and pushed forward, and then gave it to Wang Feng on the right. Wang Feng accelerated on the side and threw away the defensive Carrera, and sent a curve ball to the back of the penalty area. Caron volleyed the ball into Atalanta's goal, and goalkeeper Taibi couldn't save it.

Inter Milan equalized the score again!

The score of 2:2 was maintained until the end of the game. Unfortunately, Inter Milan only scored one point. Their ball possession rate was as high as 70%. There were 17 shots in the game, 9 shots on target, and only 2 goals.

In contrast to Atlanta, there were only 4 shots and 2 shots were on target, but all of them were converted into goals. The efficiency is amazing.

Inter Milan's record in the past four rounds is one win, one draw and two losses, and only 4 points. When Inter Milan fell into a disadvantageous situation, AC Milan made great strides, achieving three wins and one draw.

Therefore, the point difference between the two teams in the standings has narrowed to 1 point. If it weren't for Inter Milan's efforts to draw with Atlanta, I am afraid that at this time they will give up the top spot in the 13th round.

On December 18, Inter Milan ushered in the Coppa Italia match. Their opponent was the Serie B team Cagliari from Sardinia in southwest Italy. After three rounds of qualifying, they also eliminated the Serie A team.

Cagliari has a glorious history, having won the Serie A title under Luigi Riva in 1970, but has been hovering between Serie A and Serie B in the years since.

Although the strength of the opponent should not be underestimated, Cooper still rotated the main players in this game, and Wang Feng and others were placed on the bench. They must prepare early for the half-time finale against Parma.

After the start of the game, Cagliari really played on par with Inter Milan's substitute lineup.

In the 23rd minute~www.mtlnovel.com~Inter Milan defender Pasquale knocked him down when he was fighting for the top of Cagliari striker Cyril in the penalty area. Just to help the team take the lead.

The backward situation was maintained until the second half. Just when Cooper couldn't help but want to replace Wang Feng, Inter Milan's substitute teenager Martins made a contribution.

He first received a cross from Emre, headed past Cagliari's goal, and then 8 minutes later, he took advantage of a long-range shot to reverse the score for Inter Milan!

The 18-year-old Nigerian teenager who scored twice was as excited as a child. He rushed to the coach's bench to hug the coach and the main players one by one.

Wang Feng said some words of encouragement. Although the two are one year apart, their status in the team is very different, but Wang Feng never puts on airs and often plays with them.

"If I have the chance, I would like to play in China." Martins, who has a good impression of Wang Feng, said that with his strength, it is still a bit difficult to play in the five major leagues.

In the end, Inter Milan eliminated Cagliari 2:1 and advanced to the quarterfinals of the Coppa Italia.
