Vs AC Milan

The coaching staff of Inter Milan discussed for a long time and finally decided on a principle, which is to rely on Wang Feng!

Cooper joked, "From the perspective of the first half of the season, Wang Feng has abundant physical fitness and relatively strong injury resistance. Both the league and the Europa League are at critical moments, so we can only let him take on more."

When the coaching staff informed Wang Feng of this news, he patted his chest and assured, "You can rest assured, I will definitely hold on." This intensive series of matches is a test of his physical fitness and skills.

Soon Inter Milan faced their first opponent, AC Milan, in the 25th round of Serie A at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium.

For AC Milan coach Terim, this match was the last chance. At this stage of the league, they were 13 points behind the league leaders Juventus, almost impossible to reverse for the championship. Roma, who was third in the standings, also firmly held them down.

After spending over a hundred million euros on transfers last summer, they only achieved such results. The club's top management was very dissatisfied, even saying that if they couldn't beat Inter Milan, then Terim would be fired.

The Milan Derby kicked off in such a tense atmosphere.

Terim made adjustments to the starting lineup, with Helveg and Coco, who performed poorly in the last round, placed on the bench. Kaladze replaced Coco in the starting lineup, partnering with Maldini in double defensive midfield. Shevchenko, Albertini, and Rui Costa remained unchanged in the frontcourt, with Inzaghi still leading the attack.

After the kick-off, AC Milan launched a threatening attack. In the 7th minute, Rui Costa kicked a long pass from the midfield. Shevchenko, known as the "missile", quickly started and successfully dribbled into the penalty area, then bypassed the goalkeeper and calmly shot into the far corner.

Fortunately, Matrazi reacted quickly, not going after the ball but intercepting the approaching Shevchenko, successfully clearing the ball off the goal line.

In the 13th minute, AC Milan came again. Inzaghi, after receiving the ball in the penalty area, dodged consecutive tackles from Sanehti and Cordoba with small steps, then passed to Shevchenko on the other side.

If Shevchenko had an easy shot, the ball would surely go in. Helplessly, Matrazi had to slide tackle, but failed to touch the ball, instead bringing down Sheva.

Yellow card + penalty! Inter Milan got off to a bad start and fell into crisis.

Shevchenko personally took the penalty kick, but unexpectedly, when he ran up, he stumbled a bit, failing to hit the ball properly, directly shooting a high shot.

The AC Milan fans in the stands immediately booed, while the Inter Milan fans cheered, and even some quarrels broke out in the area between the two sides, requiring additional security to prevent further conflicts between the fans.

With the missed penalty, AC Milan's offensive momentum was blocked, and Inter Milan gradually regained some advantage, organizing several successful attacks.

But as the game went on, neither side managed to break the deadlock, and the tension on and off the field intensified, with defensive actions becoming more aggressive.

Under Terim's special orders, Wang Feng was tightly marked, and he couldn't count how many times he was brought down. Several times, it almost led to conflicts, but fortunately, he was rational enough to get up immediately and stop his impulsive teammates.

"Don't get into conflicts, bro. The best way to deal with fouls is to score goals, to win, not to fight each other," Wang Feng said to Matrazi.

As the game approached the end, both teams' players were almost exhausted physically and mentally, and Wang Feng had been waiting, just needing one chance!

In the 90th minute, Dibaggio advanced with the ball along the left side, quickly reaching the edge of the penalty area. AC Milan's Kaladze was a bit distracted, standing far from him.

At this moment, Dibaggio suddenly cut inside with the ball, intending to enter the penalty area. Kaladze hurriedly moved forward to block, but his positioning was poor. Dibaggio calmly sent a cross to the middle of the penalty area.

The ball arrived in the center along the penalty area line, and Rekoba quickly darted forward to receive it, then pushed the ball to the right side, where a figure emerged from behind the defense line, it was Wang Feng!

AC Milan defender Maldini closely followed Wang Feng. By this time, they were already in the penalty area. He didn't dare to make big moves and could only use his body to block Wang Feng's shooting angle.

However, Wang Feng suddenly braked, used his right foot to stop the ball, then flicked it to his left foot. Maldini's momentum couldn't be stopped, stumbling and falling to the ground, just blocking the goalkeeper's route out.

Seizing this momentary loophole, Wang Feng fiercely shot with his left foot, and the ball flew like a cannonball straight into the upper left corner of the goal, hitting the net.

"The ball's in!!! Goooooal! In the 90th minute, Wang Feng scored a crucial goal for Inter Milan!"

"This is a priceless goal. When Inter Milan's offense was in trouble, Wang Feng stood up again and again, proving his value to the fans!"

After scoring, Wang Feng excitedly crossed the advertising boards, ran along the sidelines, followed by other players, caught up with him, and then hugged him tightly. Joy and excitement were evident on everyone's faces.

Terim stood on the sidelines like a statue, his face full of loss and despair because he knew he had completely failed, and he would soon be swept out with nothing. No coach hoped for such a result.

"Wang Feng, Wang Feng," he muttered through gritted teeth, "Why do you always make trouble for me?" Last time they met, he scored twice, and this time, he scored the decisive goal. It was just too much!

He deeply regretted it now. If only he had watched Wang Feng's footage in the Belgian League last summer or had not been so full of words when the club management suggested bringing Wang Feng in.

Wang Feng naturally didn't know what was on Terim's mind. Even if he did, he would only smile helplessly. He wasn't targeting anyone. In every game, he would give his all, only for that final championship trophy!

The second half of the match had only 2 minutes of injury time, and of course, with AC Milan's current depressed momentum, even if a few more minutes were added, they wouldn't be able to reverse the situation. Soon, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game.

The Inter Milan fans in the stands cheered and danced, waving their team flags and homemade banners, singing Inter Milan's anthem. The AC Milan fans left the stadium grumbling, but fortunately, the security forces were sufficient, and there were no further conflicts between the two sides.

Inter Milan won a valuable three points. At the same time, in another match, Juventus stumbled again, drawing 1-1 with Bologna, drawing for two consecutive rounds. Inter Milan successfully narrowed the points gap to 3 points.

In other words, the next round directly facing Juventus will once again determine the top spot! Last time they faced off, Inter Milan topped the table with victory and goal difference advantage. If they win the next round, they will once again take the top spot with goal difference advantage, which is quite dramatic.

Of course, Juventus is also waiting at home with strict defenses, eager to avenge their previous defeat and secure their position as league champions!
