Comeback

The news of Wang Feng's return spread throughout the Inter Milan locker room as soon as it was announced, and everyone showed expressions of joy and relief.

When Wang Feng is on the field, everyone doesn't feel anything special, but when he's absent, all the problems in the attack are exposed.

At some point, Wang Feng has become the focal point of the team's attack, a role that used to belong to Ronaldo.

After Ronaldo returned from injury, both his physical and mental states were not the same as they used to be.

When Wang Feng reappeared at the San Siro, all the Inter Milan players applauded him. Ronaldo hugged him tightly and said, "Bro, welcome back, we need you!"

Matrazi then tapped his chest and said, "I heard you're still playing video games. Don't get too addicted, get back to your battlefield."

In the next Serie A match, Inter Milan will face Venezia away, and their only goal is to take all three points!

The news of Wang Feng's return in the next round of Serie A matches quickly dominated the headlines of major sports media outlets, and all of Italy wanted to know if Wang Feng could stop Inter Milan's continuous decline.

During the pre-match press conference, a journalist questioned whether Inter Milan was disregarding Wang Feng's injury and forcing him to return, as the severity of his injury was obvious at the time.

Coach Cooper explained, "Wang Feng's physical condition has recovered very well. We have conducted comprehensive tests repeatedly. In fact, he was ready to return in the match against Parma."

"But out of caution, we let him rest for one more round, and now Wang Feng is extremely eager to return to the field again, which is also evident from his performance in training."

Venezia's home ground, the Pier Luigi Penzo Stadium, is very distinctive. Located at the easternmost end of the island of Venice, far from other famous landmarks, it requires taking a boat to get there. Wang Feng experienced this way of traveling for the first time, and everything seemed so novel.

Venezia is currently ranked last in the standings, with only two victories this season, and relegation seems almost certain. However, this did not prevent Venezia's fans from coming to the stadium and cheering madly for the home team.

Coach Cooper deployed an attacking formation of 3-4-3, with Vieri, Ronaldo, and Wang Feng all starting, marking the first time this season for Inter Milan, which also reflects Cooper's desire to win.

At the beginning of the game, Wang Feng, who has been away from the battlefield for a long time, appeared particularly active. In the 7th minute, Inter Milan launched a counterattack after winning the ball in the backcourt. Matrazi made a ground pass to the front right side.

Wang Feng, taking advantage of his physical and speed advantages, made an early touch on the ball between two defending players, then with a powerful kick, sent the ball rolling towards the middle.

Wang Feng, after shaking off the defenders, caught up with the ball in the penalty area and passed it to the far post before the goalkeeper came out. Vieri, who was quick to follow, scored with a simple push shot.

1-0! Inter Milan's smooth attacking rhythm is back!

After scoring, Vieri ran directly to Wang Feng, hugged him tightly, and celebrated. Other players followed suit and surrounded them. At this moment, Inter Milan appeared extremely united.

With a lead, Inter Milan continued to control the game. In the 41st minute, Dibaggio organized an attack in the frontcourt, passing the ball to Wang Feng on the right, who was directly facing Venezia's right-back Bertarini.

Wang Feng pretended to cross from the bottom, then abruptly stopped near the goal line, dodged Bertarini's block, and crossed with his left foot to the front of the penalty area.

Ronaldo, in the penalty area, couldn't help but use his signature step-over to get past the defenders, and then shot into the near corner of the goal.

2-0! Inter Milan scored again!

After scoring, Ronaldo once again used his classic flying celebration. At this moment, he seemed to be the unstoppable "alien" as before.

Following closely behind, Wang Feng ran with Ronaldo and said with a smile when he stopped, "Didn't you say you wouldn't use the step-over anymore?"

Ronaldo laughed heartily, "With so much space given to me, it's uncomfortable not to use it. It's become my subconscious move."

Coach Cooper, on the sidelines, breathed a sigh of relief and slowly returned to his seat, taking out a thermos and starting to drink tea.

He had realized Wang Feng's importance to the team, which was to completely open up Inter Milan's wing attack.

Wang Feng not only can quickly advance and threaten with crosses, but also can retreat to receive the ball, and then threaten the goal directly with lateral cuts or bottom line breakthroughs.

A player who can dribble and pass is like a nightmare for the opponent's defense.

"As the game enters the 65th minute, the score on the field is still 2-0. We can see that Inter Milan is preparing to make substitutions. Coach Cooper is preparing to replace both Wang Feng and Ronaldo."

"This is not surprising, after all, both of them have just returned from injury. Inter Milan is firmly in control of the game, so it's very reasonable to substitute them."

"Wang Feng didn't score in this game, but he contributed two assists and played a crucial role on the field. If Inter Milan can take all three points, Wang Feng deserves a lot of credit."

After leaving the field, Coach Cooper gave Wang Feng a big hug and said, "Welcome back to the field, Wang, your performance was excellent."

Wang Feng responded, "Thank you for your trust, Mr. Cooper, I finally didn't let you down."

Then he greeted the teammates on the bench one by one, picked up a bottle of drink, and sat aside, continuing to watch the team's next game.

Inter Milan, after substituting their attackers, controlled the game with possession, while Venezia seemed somewhat deflated, both in attack and defense.

In the 81st minute, Inter Milan seized another opportunity. Grisk scored again with an assist from Recoba, helping the team win 3-0.

After this round, Inter Milan halted their decline. Due to Chievo's 1-3 loss to Juventus, Inter Milan's ranking in the standings changed again, overtaking Chievo to reclaim third place.

They are four points behind second-placed Roma and seven points behind leaders Juventus. There is still hope!

It is worth mentioning that in the second half of the season, AC Milan also began to exert force. Shevchenko, Rui Costa, and Inzaghi, with Ancelotti's strong combination, played well together, allowing the team to win consecutive victories and currently chase fifth place in the standings.
