Exactly 10 years later, Inter finally returned to the stage of the Champions League knockout rounds, and before the game, Suning's young owner also went to the base to mobilize. Inter did play at a high level on the night in Meazza, but was defeated by Liverpool in the second half.
Inzaghi Jr. started the stud and lost, and Uncle Scum made a move in 60 minutes to defeat Inter
The last time Inter played in the Champions League knockout rounds was in 2012; Sanetti, Macon, Lucio, Samuel, Stankovic, Sneijder, Milito, Cambiasso, the main players of the Mourinho era's "Treble" are still there... And Liverpool has been a favorite for champions league titles in recent years since they met Real Madrid in the final in 2018!
On the one hand, it was not easy to break the spell of "drawing a draw to qualify, to kill the line" in the final round of the group stage, and on the other hand, it was popular to win the bid, in fact, after the draw came out, predicting that when this group of duels was held, all parties were one-sidedly optimistic about Liverpool; it can even be said that the requirements and expectations of the parties for the two teams are not at one level at all. It is not a level of team to play, the weak team wants to win the game can only make a dangerous move. When Little Inzaghi decided to play with Liverpool in midfield and play a fast-paced tug-of-war, he actually chose studha at the beginning; he gambled on inter's ability to seize opportunities in the casino! Objectively speaking, Inter's desire to win at home and tactical pertinence were somewhat unexpected by Liverpool and played an unexpected effect.
Everyone knows that Liverpool's two full-backs, Arnold and Robertson, assist fiercely, and Mane and Salah are their absolute strong points; but this game, Dumfries and Perisic completely suppressed both sides of Liverpool, especially Arnold's side was about to be blown up by Perisic. In the midfield competition, for most of the game, Inter Milan can at least do it, inter even once pressed Liverpool, and the opportunities they created were more threatening than Liverpool's shots.
Coming up on the stud is the basis for Inter to compete with Liverpool for most of the game, but from the result backwards, Inter's loss is also related to the stud.
As the Premier League is much faster paced than Serie A, Liverpool itself is a team that emphasizes playing high positions; the faster the pace of the game, the better it is for Liverpool. In the first 60 minutes, the two sides fought the main force, and Inter also had the ability to compete! But after Henderson came on, Liverpool clearly picked up the pace. In fact, Vidal and Dumfries on the Inter side could not run for a long time, but little Inzaghi had no one to change at all!
When Liverpool sent a fresh force to speed up, Inter's rhythm could not keep up, in fact, from 60 minutes, Inter only had the strength to fight on the field. Even though Inter's positional defence did not make any mistakes, their set-piece defence was flawed by Liverpool. When Firmino opened the scoring in the 74th minute, it looked like there were about 20 minutes left in injury time, and there was still a chance to chase at home 0-1; but with physical exhaustion, Firmino's goal was equivalent to consuming Inter's last breath.
The best World First-Guard was "woken up" and Liverpool wouldn't give Inter a chance in the second leg
For the first 60 minutes, both sides were testing their chests with small punches; but after 60 minutes, Inter couldn't even swing small punches, and Liverpool's side slammed two electric cannons directly to Inter. Seeing such a process, it can only be said that Inter's bench is placed on the stage of the Champions League level, which looks too bad.
The bench problem exists objectively, which is directly related to the value and investment of the two teams, which cannot be solved by Inzaghi Jr. in a short period of time. This game, the point that really deserves Inter to sum up, is actually their ability to create opportunities and their ability to seize opportunities. Lautaro and Dzeko danfan rely on the score, Inter scored early, and the process of the second half may be overturned. But while Arnold was blown up by Perisic and the Inter striker was "frustrated", we can also see that the once omnipotent World Guard has been awakened.
In the 18-19 season, the various fronts were combined to zero, and Van Dijk was a BUG-like existence that year; so when Messi won the World Footballer of the Year and the Ballon d'Or, there were many voices for Van Dijk. However, in last season's Liverpool city derby, Pickford's moment led to a long-term suspension of Van Dijk's serious injury, which basically collapsed Liverpool's defense, the combat effectiveness fell sharply, and Van Dijk himself missed the European Championship. After returning from this season, Van Dijk's performance in some games gave the parties a feeling that their bodies had not yet recovered to their best, and some games even looked a little awkward; so before Inter played Liverpool, Di Canio made it clear that Van Dijk was not as strong as before.
But Di Canio's mouth may be "open light", this game Van Dijk sent 7 times to break the siege, 5 times to successfully compete for the top, 8 long passes, 7 times to accurately find teammates, and 3 interceptions, and another 0 was passed; in front of inter strikers, Van Dijk is like a wall of sighs! Perhaps everyone can also see that some defenses are not impossible for Van, but he will now cherish his body more, and some balls are not willing to work so hard. But when Van got serious, the all-powerful Shi yiwei in the backcourt was getting closer and closer to his peak.
After a wonderful and fierce collision, all parties are also looking forward to the second round of the confrontation. But when Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool at Anfield are like a BUFF bonus, can show faster speed of advancement, and the strength of the two sides is obviously not at the same level, if Inter still wants to advance, to go to Anfield in the second leg to play against each other, I am afraid there will be a tragedy!
