On the evening of January 12, 2003, the second half of Serie A began. In round 16, Inter Milan will meet newly promoted rookie Modena.
In this match, Vieri, who has not played for a long time, will start again. His partner Wang Feng will train the attacker. Recoba's omission will be filled by Morfeo and Ribéry will also join the team. Coach Modena Hennig was very confused by the appearance of this young player when he joined the Inter Milan team, so he asked assistant coach Ramiro next to him: "Do you know me, what is the origin of this Ribéry? ?"
Ramiro shook his head: "I don't know, maybe they were promoted from the youth training camp. Their main force is the injured Recoba, and they are definitely lacking front-line players right now."
Hennig nodded, no longer focusing on him but on how to limit Vuong Phong's expression. Currently, the team is only 1 step away from the relegation zone and is trying to score points in this match.
.....
When the referee blows the whistle, the match officially begins. Inter Milan turned their backs and launched a threatening attack right at the beginning of the match. Wang Feng's foray up front found Vieri in the middle.
In the following matches, Wang Feng created many attack opportunities for Vieri to regain form as quickly as possible, but he still could not take advantage. Although Inter Milan had the upper hand, the score was still 0:0.
In a moment of desperation, Vuong Phong chose to go alone and move forward. In the 40th minute, Inter Milan attacked, Di Biagio passed the ball into the penalty area, Wang Feng faced two defenders after receiving the ball.
First he moves the ball to the left. As an attacking player with both left and right feet, Modena's defenders did not dare to be careless.
The defending team was stunned and quickly adjusted their form to press the opponent. In the blink of an eye, Vuong Phong kicked the ball back to his left foot and then raised his foot to shoot. The ball draws a diagonal line and flies straight to the right of the goal. In the bottom corner, the Modena goalkeeper did not have time to react and was punctured by the goal.
"goooooooooooooo! The goal has been scored! The first half ends, the dominant Inter Milan finally open the scoring!"
When Vieri was in a lethargic state and had one opportunity after another, Wang Feng stood up. He used continuous spikes with his left and right feet to successfully penetrate Modena's defense and saw an opportunity to kill him with a single blow. "
"Let's review the match in front of goal. In a split second, Vuong Phong turned the ball over three times. You could tell he was out of rhythm. Defender number 19 helped him twist his body to the extreme but still could not block his shot.
"This is the skill at the feet of a top striker! It is worth mentioning that up to now, Wang Feng has scored 19 goals in the national championship. If he maintains this form, it is very likely that he will break the scoring record in Serie A. You know, my friend, last season he was only one point away from him."
After scoring, Vuong Phong excitedly shook his arms, then turned around and rushed to the side. Inter Milan players followed closely and hugged each other in celebration. Vieri said emotionally: "It's definitely you, Vuong, it's so easy to play football with you." Vuong Phong patted his chest: "Don't get too comfortable, quickly return to scoring mode." Eli nodded and smiled.
At the end of the first half, Inter Milan led their opponent by one goal. Cooper has adjusted the lineup. He initially wanted to replace Vieri, but Vieri felt he was still in good shape and wanted to score before leaving the field.
Considering that Modena's intensity was not high, Cooper accepted his opinion and only replaced Ribéry. Franck Ribéry, who was competing for the first time, was very nervous. Before entering the field, Vuong Phong consoled him and said: "Brother, you are so worried about this that you are very worried. A meaningless match. I believe in your strength.
"I will pass the ball to you, try to score, then I will definitely play more and more easily."
.....
Switching sides to fight again, Modena was not willing to accept defeat so he increased his attack. Inter Milan also actively pressured and forced the opponent to save to create more opportunities.
In the 65th minute, Inter Milan counterattacked quickly. Wang Feng ran at full speed after receiving the ball in midfield, Vieira and Ribery followed closely, Modena created a three-man attack.
He first brought the ball towards Ribéry in the middle, then waited for the opportunity to advance. The following player blocks the ball quite a bit during the race but still passes the ball in front of the defender.
The quality of this pass is very good. Wang Feng easily received the ball from the sideline. At this point, he relied on his speed to push the Modena defender back one position, so he calmly adjusted and made a high-quality cross near the baseline.
The ball swirled in the air, finding Vieri in ambush in the penalty area. He jumped slightly and the ball just hit his forehead, refracted and flew into the bottom left corner of the goal.
2:0! Another victory for Inter Milan!
