King of World Football

Chapter 218: "Crazy" February

Entering February, Wang Feng looked at the full schedule in his hand, with a wry smile on his lips. It is definitely not an exaggeration to describe this arrangement as "crazy".

Not only will there be five rounds of the league, including strong teams such as AC Milan and Udinese, there will also be two rounds of the Coppa Italia semi-finals against the Blue Eagles Lazio, and a round of the UEFA Champions League round of sixteen against Prague bada.

For Wang Feng, he will return to China to participate in the top 32 world preliminaries of the national football team against Kuwait.

Due to the top 32 competition system of the world preliminaries, only the first in the group can advance to the quarterfinals. Hong Kong and Malaysia in the same group are not to be feared, and only Kuwait is a big threat.

To be on the safe side, the new coach Alihan issued an invitation to Wang Feng, hoping that he could return to China to play in the two group matches against Kuwait, and there is no need to rush around for other games.

This will be the first time for Wang Feng to play in the national team jersey. The domestic media has made a lot of reports early on. Many fans have questioned whether it is suspected of using a world football player to play against Kuwait.

Only Alihan knew in his heart that although China entered the World Cup finals two years ago, the team's performance is very unstable now. He has to ask Wang Feng to sit on the bench to turn the tide at critical moments.

.........

On February 2, in the 19th round of Serie A, Inter Milan played against Siena at home. In order to prepare for the Coppa Italia in the middle of the week, Mancini put all the main players on the bench and let the rotation lineup deal with the newly promoted.

This group of players who played very little playing time played very hard, playing back and forth with Siena who played the main force, and Martins and Cruz each contributed a goal in the second half.

2:0, Inter Milan won the opponent without any risk.

.........

On February 5th, the first round of the Coppa Italia semi-finals, Inter Milan played against Lazio at home.

In order to gain the home court advantage as soon as possible, Inter Milan played a fast pace from the start, and Lazio had no choice but to passively speed up. In this way, the situation fell into Inter Milan's control, and they frequently created threats in the frontcourt.

After stealing the ball in a midfield, Ribery went to the side to receive Zanetti's long pass, and then sent a ball straight to Lazio's defense line. Wang Feng broke free from Negro's entanglement, got the ball first and took advantage of the situation. into the box.

Facing Favalli's sliding shovel, Wang Feng evaded with an emergency stop spike, and then pushed the goal from the near corner to succeed.

1:0! This goal made the Meazza stadium boil, and cheers and shouts filled the entire stadium.

Inter Milan quickly seized Lazio's defensive loopholes and still attacked from the right. Ribery's breakthrough was destroyed by Albertini and they got a chance for a sideline ball.

Dalma quickly threw the ball to the penalty area, and Wang Feng ran to the landing point and raised his leg to hook the ball back, avoiding the Lazio defender Coto who wanted to steal it, and then turned around to catch up with the ball.

He used his arm and body strength to block Favali who was returning to defense, and shot with his left foot, piercing Sereni's ten fingers again.

In the end, the Nerazzurri defeated the Blue Eagles 2-0 at home, and they entered the cup final with one foot!

.........

On February 8th, in the 20th round of Serie A, Inter Milan challenged Sampdoria away.

As usual, Mancini rested some of the main players and let Wang Feng start. I hope he can end the battle at halftime.

In the 17th minute, after getting rid of three defenders in a row in the frontcourt, Wang Feng broke into the penalty area and volleyed the goal, opening the scoring for the visiting team.

In the 38th minute, he cut into the penalty area from the right, and suddenly kicked back. The unmarked Caron shot and scored, expanding the lead.

Wang Feng, who had completed his mission, was replaced in the midfield to rest, but he did not expect that Inter Milan would immediately fall into a disadvantageous situation in the second half. Perhaps it was because of the recent many games and the frequent appearances of the substitute lineup, which caused fatigue. The team made a lot of mistakes on the field.

In the 67th minute, Sampdoria central defender Carlozieri seized the opportunity to win back a goal for the home team, and then they frequently threatened Inter Milan's defense. Seeing the situation was not good, Mancini had to replace Chivu and Makelele , Stabilize the defense of the midfield.

Inter Milan still won the victory with a score of 2:1.

.........

On February 12, Inter Milan came to Rome to compete with Lazio in the second round of the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia.

Different from the first round of the contest, Inter Milan slowed down the pace, while Lazio, who was in a desperate situation, wanted to speed up the game, but the overall strength of the Inter Milan players was stronger and their mentality was more relaxed, so they still controlled the situation.

This made the Lazio players gradually become impatient, and their defensive actions gradually increased. In the 35th minute, Inter Milan's midfielder fell to Dalma's feet, and the anxious Liverani brought him down directly.

Inter Milan won a free kick in midfield, and Dalma sent the ball to Wang Feng on the right flank with a long pass. He then dribbled the ball to the right side of the penalty area, escaped Negro's block and sent a cross pass.

Vieri in front of the goal failed to grab the first spot. The ball slid past the goal and came to the left area. Zanetti stopped the ball near the sideline and reorganized the attack.

He glanced at the situation in the penalty area, and then kicked a cross to the middle. Wang Feng, who was originally on the right, had already run to the middle to meet him.

Wang Feng's running position attracted the attention of Lazio's defense, and Vieri easily scored the goal with no defense~lightnovelpub.net~Inter Milan scored another goal, which was still a precious away goal!

Now the total score of the two sides has come to 3:0, which means that Lazio must score four goals in the next time to reverse and advance.

This is an impossible task for the Blue Eagles. Desperation was written on everyone's face. Goalkeeper Sereni yelled at the defenders angrily, asking why they missed people.

The defending Stam and Coto were also very helpless. They saw that Wang Feng had already grabbed the ball in the middle. According to the previous game experience, he would definitely stop the ball and shoot or break through to shoot at this time.

So one of them chose to approach the defense, and the other chose to block the shooting path, but they didn't expect Wang Feng to ferry the header, and Vieri next to him was almost ignored.

They can't be blamed for this situation. Without the siege of these two people, Wang Feng would definitely choose to play by himself, and the probability of scoring goals is also very high.

After the re-kick-off, Lazio's players looked a little listless and could no longer organize an effective attack. Inter Milan did not press any more, but killed time to prevent injuries.

Coach Mancini replaced Wang Feng and other main players one after another in the second half. It was only at the last moment that Lazio scored a face-saving goal from the substitute Otto.

Inter Milan defeated Lazio 3:1 in two rounds and once again advanced to the Coppa Italia final. Their opponent will be Juventus, who eliminated AC Milan and advanced to the final.

 …

After the match against Lazio, Wang Feng returned to China by plane. In order to compete in the world preliminaries, he will miss the 21st round of Serie A on February 15th.

In this game, Inter Milan and Udinese became 1:1. At the critical moment, Adriano helped the team score a goal to equalize the score.
