Inter's change of team is difficult to change the half-time face change drama Three injuries delay the number one problem to solve the time

Following the victory in the last round of the Italian derby, Inter beat Verona 2-0 in this round to score the planned three points.

In this battle, Inter tried a lot of changes, even including changing the lineup, but the "face change drama" in the first and second half proved that the biggest problem of the Nerazzurri attacking the championship and impacting the 85+ points target - the Zheke problem, is actually still unsolved.

This Warring States rice in the first and second half shows a very different face.

Leading by two goals in the first half, the attack was bubbly and well-coordinated, and the quality of the football played in November and December 2021 was played.

In the second half, the promotion was lackluster and the scene was passive, and the kick was the feeling of February and March 2022.

So in the first half Inter completed 13 shots on goal, 5 shots on target, and the opponent only had 2 feet on goal.

In the second half, Inter was completely passive, lagging behind in possession and shooting, and was once surrounded by opponents, and kicked the "complete victory" into a "dangerous victory". With a little bit of luck, Verona could have scored.

This is Inter's "half-time change".

What's the problem? The reason is simple: Dzeko's physical strength is exhausted, completely useless, and several accidental minor injuries have changed the original plan of indolding Inzaghi to replace Dzeko, which makes Inter once again feel the huge hidden dangers caused by Dzeko's poor endurance.

In the second half, Zheko showed a grinning and painful expression several times, and the 36-year-old veteran really reached the point of "running out of oil".

In the end, football is still a strong competitive sport.

Experience, technology, experience, temperament are important, but when you can't run, it really doesn't make much sense.

In the second half, instead of playing a positive role, Zheke brought a lot of negative effects.

When the fulcrum? As soon as the opponent is on the body, Dzeko is stumbling, causing Inter to frequently concede goals

Play Grab Point? As long as the team has a slight acceleration, he can't run in place most of the time, and the only time he is in place to barely complete the shot, or rob his teammates of the perfect opportunity at the back point.

All in all, the root cause of Inter's change of face in the second half of this battle is still the problem in February and March: when Zheko is not physically fit, Inter's offensive organization and the quality of the game will drop by several notches.

After this battle, many fans at home and abroad were attacking Inzaghi Jr.: Why did you replace Correa in advance? Why replace a player with a lot of physical fitness like Barrera, but have to keep Dzeko, whose physical groove has long been cleared?

After the game, Inzaghi Jr. explained: Several unexpected injuries have affected Inter's backhand adjustment.

DeFrey felt some pain in his flexors after half-time.

Barrera felt a little dizzy during the game, what problems were not clear, but the coach did not dare to take risks.

Correa was hit by his opponent on the knee and felt unwell, and the coach feared that he would be injured again, so he withdrew him early.

"Correa did well in the first half," Inzaghi Jr. said after the game: "I was going to let him stay on the pitch, but he was hit on the knee, so I replaced him early to avoid a new injury. ”

This series of accidents really did not come at the right time.

As we all know, the difficulty in solving the problem of "how to play without Zheko" is: without this big center, how can the Nerazzurri ensure the advance of the attack.

The above three players are all the strength needed to solve the problem.

DeFrey plays as a centre-back, and his ability to shoot the ball and pass forward is better than that of Shkriniar.

Barrera's ability to respond, dribble and pass the ball in depth is also very important.

Correa's height, dribbling, small technique, and longitudinal breakthrough ability are also crucial.

In order to create a "B plan" other than Zheke, the above three players may help the handle. In this battle, the three of them have a situation, which really caught Little Inzaghi off guard, and also made him only postpone the opportunity to solve this problem.

So Dzeko could only play the full 90 minutes. So Inter in the second half played a very bad quality of the game.

In fact, Little Inzaghi still tried some changes.

For example, change 352 to 361, play an "asymmetrical formation", and let Gossens and Perisic be present at the same time.

For example, before the end of the game, put players with good headers such as Gagliardini to the front position to help Dzeko.

Although the effect is not good, the good thing is that Inter is finally trying some changes, which is better than the previous "poor but not thinking about change". Change cannot be achieved overnight, and the necessary tolerance must still be given.

In short, Inter must find a way to solve the problem of "how to play without Dzeko".

This battle Dzeko once again proved that even if it is a weekly game, his physical strength will definitely pull his crotch. Starting next week, Inter will face a devil's schedule of 16 days and 5 games, and it is simply a fantasy to expect Dzeko's old arms and legs to hold up.

Due to some sudden accidents, this Warring States Rice postponed the opportunity to solve this problem, which is somewhat helpless.

But sooner or later, the problem will have to be faced, and whether this problem can be solved will directly determine Inter's points, rankings and championship dreams at the end of the season.
