Chapter 115: Chapter 113: Top-level prediction! Not only freed himself, but also freed his teammates!_3

Is Mancini planning to sub Bonazzoli for Icardi?

No way!

These two are worlds apart.

Ugh, I guess I’ll just wait and see.

Thankfully, the fans at Meazza Stadium are quite supportive.

Despite the team trailing, the cheers and chants keep getting louder!

Many fans, drenched in sweat, simply took off their shirts and waved their Inter jerseys.

"Come on, score one!"

"Go Tang, go!"

"Go Icardi, go!"

The fans are eagerly awaiting a hero’s arrival.

Wang Wen, the Central Five Director in the stands, is also watching anxiously~

His first time watching Serie A live, he originally thought that with Tang Long and Icardi, securing a win against a mid-tier team like Udinese should be no problem for Inter.

But to his surprise, Inter, who scored the first goal, was equalized by two goals from the opponent!

And going by the situation on the field, it’s very unfavorable for Inter.

It’s the 61st minute of the second half.

During a stoppage in play, Tang Long ran from midfield to the sidelines.

After a glance with Berni, Berni instantly understood.

He bent down to pick up a bottle of water from the bench, used his goalkeeper throw precision, tossed it, and Tang Long caught the trajectory, unscrewed the bottle, took a couple of gulps, poured some over his head, then quickly moved beside Mancini and leaned over.

"Playing like this won’t work. I’ll drop back to the holding midfield position, let Kovacic push forward."

Before Mancini could respond, Tang Long had already moved to the holding midfield position.

"That’s a fine idea. I’m not worried about Tang, but Kovacic has never played as an attacking midfielder. Can he handle it?" Mancini was filled with doubt.

In this match, Mancini was using a rearward attacking midfielder tactic, meaning Inter effectively had three defensive midfielders.

Now, Kovacic was following President Tang’s lead, proactively pushing forward.

By closing the gap to Icardi, it effectively added another player to the attack line.

As the Dutch football prophet Cruyff once said.

Football is the art of space transformation!

Kovacic’s advance, pulling an opposing midfielder along, actually liberated Tang Long!

With severely exhausted physical reserves, it was hard for Tang Long to perform the same backfield dribbling runs as in the first half.

He had to ensure he was not surrounded by too many opponents, trapped in dilemmas, to focus on bridging the midfield-to-backfield connections.

It indeed proved to be a clever tactic!

A top-tier prediction made by Tang Long based on the situation on the field!

The pressure from the surrounding in the backfield slightly eased, and the on-field situation became less tense.

Inter Milan gained a chance to catch their breath.

But Tang Long knew, that breathing room was only for a moment, there was not much time to rest!

The match had reached the 66th minute.

If they drag on past the 75th minute without equalizing, it would be exceedingly difficult to defeat Udinese at home.

After all, there’s a huge imbalance in physical stamina between the two sides—the later the game goes, the more favorable the situation for Udinese becomes.

Look to the sidelines!

Udinese’s coach, Stramaccioni, had his hands in his pockets, chewing gum, blowing bubbles.

Occasionally turning to Stankovic beside him for a laugh.

However, Tang Long’s strength lies in his predictions, which target not only himself but also his teammates!

Elevating Kovacic to the attacking midfielder position is not only liberating for Tang Long but also liberating for Kovacic!

In the 75th minute of the second half, after patient passing, the ball reached Kovacic’s feet.

Kovacic looked up—

Icardi was tightly marked.

Glanced to the left—

Shaqiri hadn’t come over yet.

Then immediately looked to the right—

Podolski was running, but his seemingly unnatural posture meant he likely couldn’t assist in a short time.

Kovacic held the ball, shielding it, then turned back to look at Tang Long.

At this time, Tang Long was also exhausted, feeling like his legs were filled with lead, and shouted to him:

"Do it yourself, you can!"

There’s absolutely no stamina issue for Kovacic who came on in the second half, it’s mainly a psychological barrier.

Tang Long’s encouragement instantly relieved him of the psychological burden!

The Croatian midfielder’s advantage lies in rapid foot movement, excellent speed, superior body balance, skillful dribbling, and an ever-forward determination.

"Even Tang lets me handle this myself, I’ll definitely make it happen!"

Kovacic, back facing the goal, moved the ball a bit forward with his studs, lifted his foot, pretending to pass back to Tang Long.

But it’s merely a deception!

In the next moment, Kovacic made an unbelievably quick 180-degree turn!

"Crack"—one misleading touch, the midfielder Pingqi hadn’t reacted yet, watching in awe as the lad zipped past him like a monkey~

Another glance up, Kovacic’s heart raced wildly!

He clearly saw the opponent’s goalkeeper and the visible white nylon netting behind the keeper.

"Whatever, let’s just blast one!"

A fierce shot!

When the ball was shot, all Udinese players stood nervously, watching the ball’s path.

Except for one, lurking as a hunter in the night’s shadows.

Almost at the exact moment Kovacic struck the ball, he dashed toward the goalkeeper’s direction...

"Kovacic shot!"

"What a powerful strike,"

"The goalkeeper blocked it with both palms, deflecting the ball out!"

"Alas, too straight! A bit disa..."

"Oh my gosh! When did Icardi appear?"

"Icardi followed up with a shot and scored!"

"The Argentine striker was invisible for half an hour, and when he appeared he scored!"

"How did he know there’d be a chance for a follow-up? He seemed to magnetically draw the ball!"

In the 76th minute, Inter battling at home finally equalized.

2:2!

Both sides are back on the starting line!

The match entered a fever pitch!
