Chapter 204: The Second Use of Special Training (Second update, please vote for me!)
Leonardo's choice was correct. After taking the lead, Naples attacked more fiercely. If Inter Milan also pressed out to attack them, this difference in momentum would be enough for Naples to score two more goals...
Inter Milan, who chose to defend, successfully withstood Naples' offensive.
Ten minutes passed unknowingly, sixty-one minutes later, and Naples still led by one goal.
They continue to attack.
Inter Milan took the opportunity to launch several counterattacks, but due to limited input of troops, they were not able to threaten Naples' defense.
Just when everyone thought that Naples would continue to bombard like this, and Inter Milan could only do nothing.
Inter Milan unexpectedly equalized the score...
The specific situation is this - Inter Milan counterattacked and handed the football directly to Eto'o. Eto'o used his personal skills to break through with the ball, but lacked support. This was originally a counterattack with little threat. Unless Eto'o can pass the entire Naples defense with the ball by himself, he will either have to take a hasty long shot or go to a dead end. The best result is nothing more than giving the ball. The team takes a corner kick.
But when he cut in from the wing to the center, he was tripped by Criscito.
The referee blew the whistle and not only gave Criscito a yellow card, but also gave Inter Milan a free kick thirty meters away from the goal.
Sneijder stood in front of the ball and then... kicked the football directly into the goal!
※ ※ ※
"Well done!" Leonardo jumped up from his seat again, raising his arms and shouting.
An away goal, a draw, perfect!
Mazzarri on the other side was scolding Criscito for his recklessness: "He shouldn't have made a move! What are you afraid of letting him pass? We still have De Jong and two central defenders in the middle! This is the opportunity that Inter Milan is waiting for. !”
But no matter how much you scold, the fact that Naples was equalized cannot be changed.
"Inter Milan's conservatism has finally paid off! Although there is a bit of luck in this goal..."

The Italian commentator is more concerned about which of the two teams can represent Italian football in the semi-finals, while the Chinese commentator has a completely different perspective. He Ping is more concerned about Chen Yingxiong's status.
Sixty-five minutes into the game, Chen Yingxiong had not scored yet. Although he had two threatening shots, they were meaningless without goals.
He has only received one assist so far in this game - Raul's goal came from his header.
But what he needs is not assists, but goals.
"The hero once boasted that he wanted to defend the title of top scorer in the Champions League. Judging from his performance in previous games, he is working hard towards this goal. He has only played two games and has already scored five goals. If the best scorer in the Champions League If the shooters are ranked according to their goal efficiency, the hero must be the well-deserved top scorer... Unfortunately, this is not the case. We don't know where Napoli will go in the end, and we don't know how many games the hero can play. If he If you really want to be the top scorer, you must seize every opportunity in every game, but look at this game, there are still twenty-five minutes left and he has not scored yet..."
He Ping was worried about Chen Yingxiong's delay in scoring, and the Chinese fans were also worried.
In China, Inter Milan has a huge number of fans. A few years ago, CCTV conducted a survey to see how many fans of European giants clubs there were in China. As a result, Inter Milan won the championship, while AC Milan ranked second.
Therefore, this Champions League quarter-final has left many Chinese Inter Milan fans in a dilemma. They don’t know whether they want Inter Milan to win or Naples to win...

Chen Yingxiong was firmly sandwiched by Lucio and Samuel, and it became very difficult to shoot with a header. Lucio's header level is very high, and Samuel's defensive ability is also very good.
It is a bit difficult to deal with two top central defenders at the same time, not to mention that when Inter Milan defends, all the players retreat, and the entire penalty area is full of people. If his movements are at least a little slower, the football will be gone.
During the halftime break, Mazzarri asked for more diverse attack methods.
So just at the beginning of the second half, he tried a long shot.
As a result, the penalty area was full of people, and his long-range shot either hit an Inter Milan player or was blocked by his teammates.
Both long-range shots and headers are not very effective. There are people in the penalty area, which also limits his ability to run without the ball.
Is it really the end of the road?
Chen Yingxiong suddenly thought of his last goal in the game against Lazio. Curving ball outside the penalty area...
An idea flashed in his mind, why couldn't he use an arc to bypass those people? It's difficult to go around from the side, so I'll go around from the top!
So he retreated deeper, because the falling leaf ball requires a sufficient distance, but it is difficult to use if it is too close...
The only problem is that he hasn't actually started practicing the drop ball yet. It may take a lot of shots to hit it once - he has hit the drop ball before, but he basically relied on blindness.
In the 67th minute, he got a chance to experiment. As a result, the football was kicked out hard, flat and low, and was blocked by the crowd.
In the 73rd minute, he once again received the ball outside the penalty area and took a long shot. This time, it was no longer unfair, but directly fired anti-aircraft guns...

Chen Yingxiong frequently took long-range shots outside the penalty area. Everyone saw this, but no one took it seriously. Because the second half had just begun, he did just that. Long-range shooting is originally one of his scoring weapons. It is normal for him to shoot more from long-range.
As long as you can't get in. Looking at it now, his long-range shooting percentage is very low...
After Chen Yingxiong took a few test shots, he deeply realized the difference between free kicks and long shots. Once the free kick is set up, it becomes easier to take it calmly without interference and accurately hit a certain part of the football. And what about long shots?
Football is in motion, and there are defensive players around to interfere. It is not easy to accurately hit a specific part of the football under such circumstances...
But that’s not a reason to stop him from scoring goals.
What should I do if there are other people interfering with football during the game?
Then I will try to reduce these factors as much as possible.

Cambiasso stepped forward to grab the ball. Chen Yingxiong stuck out his butt and blocked the Argentinian midfielder behind him. Even if he kicked and pushed from behind, he could not shake Chen Yingxiong in the slightest.
Then Chen Yingxiong took a shot. This time the height of the football was much lower. Unfortunately, it still flew over the crossbar because the football did not complete the sudden fall...
The fallen leaf ball is really not as simple as Chen Yingxiong imagined.
However, Chen Yingxiong tried tirelessly. Anyway, Inter Milan was satisfied after equalizing the score and continued to shrink its defense. Naples had a lot of offensive opportunities.
Huangtian paid off, he didn't believe that if he continued to play like this, he wouldn't be able to feel it!
If the Inter Milan players knew that Chen Yingxiong used them as experimental props, I really don’t know what they would think...
※ ※ ※
Time passed by minute by second, and the score was still tied at 1:1, with ten minutes left before the end of the game. This score means Inter Milan's victory.
In fact, even if they lose 1:2 in the end, it is completely acceptable to Inter Milan.
For Naples, it was not a good result.
But now there is no other choice, unless Naples can score two or even three goals in the remaining ten minutes...
This is unlikely. Naples can only hope to score one goal, at least get a victory, and take the lead in the total score.
Better than nothing.
A win is always better than a draw.
Although no matter what, Leonardo's tactics were successful...
In the 82nd minute, Chen Yingxiong got the ball again. This time there was no defender around him. Because the distance was a bit far, the direct shot hit rate was very low, so the Inter Milan players did not rush over in time.
Chen Yingxiong doesn’t care so much, no one is guarding me? Isn't this a perfect opportunity?
Get up!
Shoot!
Chen Yingxiong gently moved the football forward. The football rolled at a decent speed and was relatively regular. Under such circumstances, it would be easier to accurately hit a specific part of the football.
After taking the football out, Chen Yingxiong lowered his head and stared at the football, just like he did during special training in the dungeon. The entire football is firmly imprinted in your mind, and you know exactly where every part of the football should be.
Then he raised his right leg.
For the Lazio ball, he used the three rightmost toes of his right foot, which makes the ball faster.
This time he used the entire toe area.
Accurately hitting the middle and lower part of the football.
The moment he hits the football, he does not exert force forward flatly, but has a natural pulling upward movement.
At the same time, the center of gravity of the body is pressed forward instead of backward, so that the kicked football will be controlled at a suitable height and will not cause direct masturbation...
Bang!
The football was kicked towards the goal.
No one thought that the ball would fly towards the goal. They thought that like Chen Yingxiong's previous long shot, it would be either high or wide.
Judging from the flight trajectory of the football at the beginning, this is indeed the case...the football flies straight upward, and the height continues to climb.
It passed high over the heads of those inside and outside the penalty area.
It also flew from Cesar's fingertips...
If it continues flying like this, the second floor of the stands behind the goal will be the final destination of football.
But at this moment, in full view of everyone, the football suddenly fell!
Like a fallen leaf, it floats erratically and sinks suddenly.
Dive into the goal behind Cesar!
It almost missed the crossbar and flew in. If the ball had fallen a little later, it would have hit the crossbar, wasting such a beautiful first half.
A little earlier, he hit Cesar's palm and was intercepted.
What a thrill...
Regarding this unexpected goal, there was silence for about a few seconds, and then huge cheers broke out.
"Long live!"
"pretty--!!!"
The Sao Paulo Stadium is as spectacular as the eruption of Mount Vesuvius!
