ball magic

This is destined to be a Champions League match day remembered by history.

After Real Madrid and Inter Milan scored 3 to 4 and jointly blasted 7 goals, in Manchester United's away game against Bayer Leverkusen, the two teams also scored an amazing score of 3 to 3!

In a stage like the semi-finals of the Champions League, four teams scored 13 goals in two games, which is definitely an astonishing record.

In this equally exciting battle, the most eye-catching thing is not the forwards of the two teams, but the attacking midfielders of the two teams——

That has been famous for a long time, but he has never set foot in a wealthy family, and he is eager to let the world see his light.

That was Kaka, who made his debut in the top five leagues and gained a firm foothold in the giants at lightning speed.

In this game, the two scored a goal each.

However, the contribution of the two to the team cannot be covered by a mere goal.

Raphael was not surprised by Ballack's performance at all, but he was a little bit emotional that Kaka had replaced Ronaldinho and occupied the starting position.

Is Kaka really better than Ronaldinho?

If such a conclusion is drawn, it must be irresponsible, and Brazilian fans must have a lot to say.

However, since joining Manchester United, Ronaldinho has begun a long period of adaptation.

He has to adapt not only to the language, the weather, but also Manchester United's unique style of running off the ball in this era.

Such a long adaptation also brought a long running-in period.

During this period, Ronaldinho not only had supernatural moments to help the team turn the tide, but also had the embarrassment of being replaced by Ferguson in the first half and being dubbed a parallel importer.

But also from Brazil, at the age of 19, whether it is appearance or style of play, he does not look like Kaka produced by the football kingdom, but he quickly won the hearts of Manchester United fans.

When Kaka first came to Manchester United, the Red Devils fans also had high hopes for the young player who made Ferguson angry at the FA and even asked Sir Robson to come out. To the extent of the teenager.

Some fans even think that Ferguson spent a lot of effort to buy him, not only to scratch the lottery ticket, but also to keep Ronaldinho from being lonely.

As a result, time has changed, and "future" has replaced "now", which made the fans in Brazil shouted that they couldn't understand it, let alone how the Brazilian national team coach Scolari would choose.

And after reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League, he was always dubbed a dark horse by the media of other countries, as if to say——

"It's all because of luck that you reached the semi-finals!"

Leverkusen used such a soul-stirring game to prove himself to fans all over the world.

These two hearty battles also made countless fans shout——

This is the era of attacking football!

They are already looking forward to seeing a more exciting Champions League final!

Inter Milan's players certainly wanted to reach the final, but before they ushered in the challenge of Real Madrid, they first ushered in the first leg of the Coppa Italia final.

As early as February, Inter Milan and Parma reached the final. At that time, Moratti applied to the Italian Football Association, hoping to hold the final of the Coppa Italia as soon as possible.

But such a proposal was rejected by Parma.

Because at that time, Parma was in a precarious situation and fell into the relegation zone. How could it be possible to play in the Coppa Italia final when he was in his worst state because of Inter Milan's proposal?

This also made the Italian Football Association reject Inter Milan's application.

Regarding Moratti's application, Toshack actually had no hope at all. After all, what is the status of Inter Milan in Italy.

The Football Association did not hold back, most likely because Inter Milan is already the only seedling in the Champions League.

On April 2002, 4, in the first round of the Coppa Italia final, with Owen and Figo in rotation, Inter Milan beat Parma 25-3 at home.

Rafael continued his previous fiery performance and scored 2 goals in this game.

Because it was a home game, Javier also went to the scene to watch the game in person, but he waited and waited and waited, but he didn't wait for his brother to give him the goal.

But Javier is not only not discouraged, but in a better mood.

Because it made him realize that his younger brother didn't just send him a goal to perfuse him, he wanted to give him a better one!

After laying a solid foundation for the second round of the Coppa Italia, facing the weekend league, Toshack did a particularly shameless thing——

He rotated all the main players.

How firm is this "all"?

Let's put it this way, he even picked three or four youngsters from the second team, put them on jerseys with ridiculously large numbers, and let these youngsters start.

If it weren't for Piacenza's lack of desire and desire, and his lack of interest in taking the opportunity to bully these kids, the score might not have been 4-0, and a tragedy might have happened.

Faced with doubts after the game, Lao Tuo was very free and easy: "I know what I am doing. After we won the league, after we have played 9 games in just 3 days, why can't I rotate? Why not give these teenagers a chance?

From youth to maturity, this is the road that every player will go through.

Now I'm just giving these kids a chance. "

The Inter Milan game is over, and they will be in their best form to meet the challenge of their opponents.

As their opponents, Real Madrid has been surpassed by Valencia in the La Liga standings.

This has put a lot of pressure on Real Madrid, not only to achieve good results in the Champions League, but if they want to overtake in a corner at the final stage of the league, they have now reached the stage where they cannot lose a single point.

Real Madrid coach Del Bosque how to choose?

An hour later, Del Bosque's starting roster gave the answer——

In this team whose highest goal is to win the Champions League, when they have to make a choice, they will simply sacrifice the league and give it a go!

After all, after losing this game, they have no chance to comeback in the Champions League.

In the league, as long as Valencia makes mistakes, they still have a chance to recover.

Real Madrid, who went to the away game with such an idea, was beaten up by the Royal (underworld) society in the away game, and finally lost the game with a score of 3-0.

Toshack was not surprised by Bosque's choice, and this kind of Real Madrid is the Real Madrid he understands.

The moment Real Madrid president Bernabeu created the UEFA Champions League, the goal of this club was to keep winning it!

Tuesday, October 2002, 4.

Inter Milan ushered in the challenge of Real Madrid at their home court.

The Nerazzurri, who have been looking forward to this game for a long time, have already decorated the entire Meazza Stadium into a sea of ​​blue and black.

The North Stand even made a huge tifo to cheer for the team.

Under such momentum, after the start of the game, Real Madrid, who fell behind by one goal and allowed Inter Milan to score 4 away goals in the away game, gave it a go and attacked around Inter Milan's goal. Entered the white-hot stage.

However, in the past few years, such a scene may appear almost every match day. These "Nella" have already developed antibodies, and they can watch Ronaldo, Mendieta and Raul attack their own team without changing their faces. The picture of the goal.

Of course, such a picture also makes fans miss Stam very much.

Their gates looked much stronger with this big guy around.

Fortunately for them, although their defense was once crumbling and seemed to be in danger of collapsing at any time, they also had "San Toldo"!

In the 9th minute, it was Toldo who blocked Ronaldo's shot with a punch, making the "alien" hate.

This also made the audience boil, and the fans chanted the name of "San Toldo".

But soon the fans moved on, because the ball fell to Juan's feet, and Juan sent the ball directly to the frontcourt without thinking about it.

Vieri, who has not scored in the Champions League for a while, after receiving the ball, ran all the way, unstoppable!

Facing Vieri like this, not only is Real Madrid's defense doing nothing, but Casillas, who made many wonderful saves in the last game, is also helpless.

This goal is also of great significance to Vieri.

So after scoring the ball, Vieri rushed to the camera, not only venting, but also patting his chest declaringly.

Look, it was I, Vieri, who scored the goal!

Shut up all the guys who say I don't deserve a World Cup ticket!

The dream start that Real Madrid fans were looking forward to did not usher in, but the score was stretched.

And Bosque, who has gained a 2-goal advantage, is once again facing a choice——

Should we continue to play according to this rhythm of the game, or have another vigorous confrontation with Real Madrid?

After a little hesitation, Toshack chose the latter.

With such a brilliant predecessor who left a deep mark on Inter Milan, Lao Tuo also wanted fans to see his understanding of offensive football.

Under Toshack's command, Inter Milan played calmly and patiently, advancing layer by layer, and such careful preparations turned into quicksilver when they came to the offensive third area.

In the 19th minute, Inter Milan played a very beautiful attack.

After Raphael passed 1 and 2 on the left, he made an inverted triangle pass and sent the ball to Vieri's feet accurately.

Vieri has already scored a goal. This time he did not seek credit, but passed the ball to Figo, who had already cut inside and was close to the penalty area.

Without waiting for Carlos to grab the ball, Figo had once again distributed the ball to Juan who had inserted in the back. With Juan's explosive shot, Inter Milan once again took the lead!

This is the dream goal that "Neira Zuri" wants!

After scoring the goal, Juan was also extremely happy.

He knew that Spanish national team coach Camacho would definitely watch the match

Need this goal, he needs to let the Spanish national team coach Camacho see him.

Javier also applauded the good brother at this moment.

He is looking forward and looking forward, will Rafa give him a goal in this game?

But he didn't expect Rafael's goal, but he expected Real Madrid's counterattack.

In the 24th minute, Real Madrid got a free kick in the front court because of a foul by Ashley Cole.

Real Madrid put up an ultra-luxury lineup for this purpose. Standing in front of the penalty spot are Zidane, Mendieta and Roberto Carlos.

Such a luxurious lineup also brought considerable pressure to Toldo.

Because these three are all top free kick masters in football, with very different styles, which made Toldo finally choose to focus on the ball and not on the man.

His strategy was successful because his judgment was sound.

But his save was a failure, because some shots were not impossible to guard against, but impossible to guard against at all!

It is Robert Carlos who has the "golden left foot" who can score such a goal!

This goal was so important to Real Madrid that after the goal, not only the Meilingers who accompanied the team on the expedition cheered, but the bald Brazilian who scored the goal also rushed to his teammates and hugged them one by one.

It is also a great encouragement to them to have good luck at the moment when they need the favor of Lady Luck the most.

In the following time, Real Madrid worked hard to equalize the score, which also made their offensive wave after wave.

This situation also made Toshack change his mind about confronting Real Madrid. Under his command, Inter Milan switched from defense to offense, and played an offensive and defensive battle with Real Madrid.

The two sides come and go, the rhythm is fast, and it can be called a carnival for neutral fans.

In the last stage of the first half, Rafael personally planned an attack, but was knocked down outside the penalty area by Salgado in advance.

This foul caused Salgado to get a yellow card, and at the same time, Inter Milan got a valuable free kick in the frontcourt.

Under the expectation of everyone, under the watchful eyes of Javier, Raphael personally handled the free kick in the frontcourt.

Casillas' eyes have also been staring at Rafael. As early as 2 years ago in the Champions League, he was taught by Rafael with a free kick.

But after a few tenths of a second, Casillas looked at the opposite Argentine depressedly!they!

Yes, it wasn't Rafael who made him depressed, but a group of Argentines!

Is Raphael handling the ball?

Yes.

But Raphael didn't attack the goal directly, but unexpectedly passed the ball to Redondo's feet.

When Redondo received the ball again and passed it to Zanetti, Casillas and his teammates in front of him did not have any precautions against Zanetti, which caused the Argentine defender to pass the ball easily Into the net!

Such a goal also attracted the cheers of the fans.

The fans of Inter Milan really love this group of Argentines, these Argentines who always bring goals and wins!

In the last stage of the first half, conceding another goal in this way should have severely damaged Real Madrid's morale, but at this time, Mendieta almost pierced through Toldo's ten fingers with a long shot, Morale went up.

In the following time, Ronaldo almost scored a goal for the team, which also made many Inter fans break out in a cold sweat.

This is Ronaldo who cannot be ignored at any moment!

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again. After the kick-off, Inter Milan took the lead in attacking by taking advantage of the possession of the ball. After breaking through McManaman and Salgado, Rafael sent a goal for Jaminha. Wonderful biography.

The reason why the wonderful pass is sent is because it has been fed to the mouth. The Brazilian can poke the ball into the goal as long as he pokes his foot.

Of course Jaminha did this, but just after he finished the stab that made him a little embarrassed, the ball actually flew out of Casillas' fingertips.

What kind of extreme save is this!

Before Jaminia could react, he found that the ball had been transferred by Zidane to Mendieta's feet. When he turned his head again, he could only see that the ball had disappeared at the feet of the Spanish midfielder.

Jaminha knew Mendieta all too well.

This guy's long pass guidance ability is absolutely top-notch in football.

Now the ball is not at his feet, it must have been passed to the frontcourt by him, maybe it is still at Ronaldo's feet!

Jaminha has always been lazy in defense, but after judging that his defense may be in crisis, the Brazilian also rushed to his own half without hesitation.

However, the Brazilian bald man only ran for a few meters before stepping on the brakes.

Because he saw that Redondo, who was the slowest runner and the slowest rusher, was now on the front line of defense, and he had already given Ronaldo a shovel.

Ronaldo, who had lost his chance, also looked a bit depressed, but when Rafael reached out to pull him up, he still gave him a somewhat reluctant smile. Μ.三彡ㄚQxS.CǒM

But when the game restarted, Ronaldo's smiling face disappeared!

Because Toshack played a trick!

He made Juan follow him every step of the way.

Yes, let Juan be the brown sugar.

The two have been teammates for so many years, how could Ronaldo not understand Juan?

After a few years of further study at Inter Milan, the current Juan is no longer the Juan of the past.

His speed is not top-notch, but it is also among the first-class. His physical fitness is superb. He is not only good at running, but also happy to run. As for his physique...

Let's put it this way, Ronaldo played against him once today, and he didn't take advantage of it at all.

How can Ronaldo not be depressed if Juan like this stays by his side like a jelly candy?

What made him speechless was that Juan even tried to chat with him with a silly smile on his face, which was simply hurting him mentally!

When it became clear that Ronaldo was in trouble, Real Madrid coach Del Bosque had no choice but to think of another strategy.

So Bosque can only encourage Mendieta to press more forward, and at the same time let Raul take on more.

The last game proved the great tacit understanding between Mendieta and Raul, and they did not disappoint Bosque in this game.

When the points should be scored most, with the tacit understanding of the two, Mendieta once again broke through Inter Milan's goal and won a glimmer of hope for Real Madrid.

When the score of this game became 3 to 2 and the total score became 7 to 5, Real Madrid fans knew that if they wanted to score goals, they had to score more goals, more and more.

The Real Madrid players on the field also hope to control their own destiny. After scoring a goal, they had no time to celebrate, so they invested in the attack again.

However, not long after this attack started, Bosque saw that the former favorite Redondo broke the ball again, and then moved to Jaminha's feet.

The Brazilian is now at the forefront, and even Vieri is behind him, let alone Rafael and Figo.

What are you still hesitating at this time?

The Brazilian did it alone!

Toshack was stunned when he saw this scene, he wanted to ask this bald man——

Do you think you are Rafael, or Ronaldo?

But in his speechlessness, Jaminha had already gotten rid of Zidane, and then passed the ball to the left.

Toshack: "..."

Since you have to pass everything, why do you have to stick to the ball and pass another person?

However, although Lao Tuo had a bit of face in front of the Brazilian bald head, he only dared to beep in his heart, and he would never ask the Brazilian such a question after the game.

And Raphael, who received the ball, accelerated and passed Salgado again. At this moment, his goal is also very clear——

Cut inside and score!

He wants to use a goal to announce that Inter Milan has advanced to the final again!

At this moment, Hierro's figure appeared on the left rib, which should belong to Elguera's position, but for Raphael, it doesn't matter whether Hierro or Elguera appears here, because his goal is just to The goal behind Casey.

How can Javier sit still when he sees Raphael rushing towards Hierro firmly?

Together with the fans in the stands behind him, he raised his hands high, opened his mouth, and shouted at the loudest decibels——

"Rafael!"

This is his brother, Rafael's goal!

Such cheers from the audience also made Rafael smile after scoring, but in the next second, a Brazilian bald head appeared on his body.

And this Brazilian bald head was even more unceremonious, he lowered his head and kissed him on the face.

Havel, who saw this picture on the big screen at the scene: "..."

My brother, it's not clean...

Such melancholy even made him forget the fact that his younger brother still didn't give him the goal.

But when Javier saw the score became 4 to 2, he was still happy.

Once again, Inter Milan once again advanced to the final!

He is already looking forward to his younger brother defending the title again!

But for the final opponent, he is still a little selfish.

He doesn't hate Hughes, he really doesn't, but if he had to choose between Leverkusen and Manchester United, he would choose the former.

Even if he knows that his brother wants to play Manchester United more than Leverkusen.

But because of this, he hopes that Leverkusen will win.
