Chapter 267: I am witing for you in the final
Wang Feng looked up at the more than seventy thousand people chanting his name in unison. Although not the first time, each time made his blood boil. He didn\'t want to let down this trust and expectation.
In the Milan TV studio, the host Manesar was commenting on the situation at the scene: "In just five years, Wang has brought three league championship trophies and two Champions League trophies to Inter Milan. He deserves everyone\'s trust."
"For various reasons, Inter Milan experienced a painful failure last year. Can they overcome the obstacles this year and launch another assault on the pinnacle of Europe?"
On a domestic TV station, Zhang Jun was also commenting on the scene, "Wang Feng has received a lot of love and support from foreign fans. The fact proves that strong strength can transcend nationality, race, and gain unparalleled respect."
In the 66th minute, Inter Milan\'s Mark Lelay intercepted the ball in the backcourt. He quickly passed it to Sainetti in front. At the same time, Inter Milan\'s front trident, Wang Feng, Ribery, and Adriano, also rushed forward.
Zanetti dribbled past the midfield line and passed the ball to Wang Feng in front. He immediately sent a diagonal pass to the wing, bypassing the returning Tachinardi, and accurately found Ribery.
Ribery used his speed to forcefully break through near the goal line, then made a back pass. The ball flew to the edge of the small penalty area in front of the goal. At this time, Wang Feng had accelerated into the small penalty area, positioning himself a bit forward.
Seeing the ball about to slip past, Wang Feng cleverly lifted his left foot backward and kicked the ball forward with the outside of his foot. The ball then drew a rainbow in the air and fell under the crossbar into Villarreal\'s goal.
3:2! Inter Milan once again took the lead!
And it wasn\'t over yet. When the game reached the 85th minute, Villarreal\'s attack was fruitless, and the ball was intercepted by Inter Milan\'s goalkeeper, Toldo. He quickly threw it to Mark Lelay not far away, who then immediately passed it to Wang Feng, who was returning to defense.
Wang Feng received the ball and turned to run past the midfield line. Several opposing players were retreating, with Solin rushing up first to try to slow down Wang Feng\'s attack. But Wang Feng shook him off with a big step.
Center-back Senna then stepped in to defend, but Wang Feng controlled the ball and suddenly decelerated and changed direction, once again getting past the defender with the change in rhythm, rushing to the edge of the penalty area about thirty meters away.
Before others could react, he directly lifted the ball with his toe, causing Villarreal\'s goalkeeper Barbosa to think Wang Feng would enter the penalty area before shooting. Thus, he positioned himself very forward, and at this moment, he could only retreat while leaning back to reach the ball.
But the ball still passed over his head, leaving the Argentine feeling desolate. This trend was undoubtedly tragic, as he had anticipated. The falling ball crossed the goal line and entered the net.
4:2! With Wang Feng\'s hat-trick and one assist, Inter Milan won at home against Villarreal!
In the press conference after the first-leg match, Inter Milan coach Mancini affirmed the team\'s attack while mentioning the defense: "Unfortunately, we didn\'t do well defensively. It\'s well known that Zambrotta and Civu\'s injuries have put a lot of defensive pressure on us."
"Inter Milan\'s defensive lineup seems to be full of talent. Why does the situation become so serious with only two main players missing?" a journalist asked.
"Well, I think it\'s more of a coordination issue. It takes more time to build mutual understanding among each other. You know, defensive players need team coordination more than attacking players. I\'m confident we will get better in the upcoming matches."
"Of course, Villarreal\'s performance was also very impressive, especially Fran, the top scorer in La Liga. His attacking ability is obvious to all."
Villarreal coach Pellegrini praised Wang Feng\'s performance, "He dominated the whole game. Although we twice stubbornly equalized the score, we were quickly overtaken by Wang. All of Inter Milan\'s goals are related to him."
Regarding the hope of advancing, he said: "We are not completely without a chance. After all, we got two valuable goals at the Meazza. Anything is possible back at the Ceramic Stadium."
In between the Champions League matches, there was a league match, the 32nd round of Serie A, where Inter Milan challenged Messina away. This small club from Sicily is significantly inferior in strength to the mainstream teams in Serie A.
Shortly after the start, Wang Feng scored the opening goal for Inter Milan with a long shot, and then Emre assisted Cruz for the second goal. After halftime, Wang Feng was substituted.
In the second half, substitute Martins added another goal, further expanding the score for the away team. The 22-year-old Nigerian\'s performance in the past few seasons has been excellent, attracting strong interest from mid-table teams in the top five leagues.
It\'s not surprising that he, like Kalon, will soon consider his next destination. Teams like Newcastle and Frankfurt are good choices, as no young player wants to be a substitute forever.
In the end, Inter Milan won 3-0 against Messina.
In the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, at Villarreal\'s Ceramic Stadium, this stadium, which can only accommodate 22,000 people, is much smaller than Inter Milan\'s Meazza. However, the passionate Yellow Submarine fans filled it to the brim, and their momentum was no less than anyone else\'s.
After a period of training, Inter Milan\'s defense seemed to be improving. Samuel ran tirelessly on the field, hoping to regain his form from his youth.
The nightmare of the Galacticos journey is an unforgettable memory for him. There, his confidence was almost completely destroyed. Fortunately, Inter Milan coach Mancini insisted on signing him.
This is like giving him a second chance! More importantly, he wants to participate in this year\'s World Cup held in Germany. But so far, he has not received a call-up from the Football Association, while his teammate Zanetti has already been confirmed to be on the training list. This is the gap brought by achievements.
If he can win the Champions League championship with Inter Milan, especially as a starter, it should be easier to enter the national team. Aren\'t Zambrotta and Cicu\'s injuries a heaven-sent opportunity? Thinking of this, the Argentine\'s fighting spirit became even stronger.
With his above-average performance, Villarreal\'s Riquelme and Fran did not perform well. The first half ended with a score of 0:0.
In the 64th minute of the second half, Ribery sent a pass directly into the penalty area, and then Wang Feng followed up and shot to seal the victory. The Nerazzurri won away against their opponents, advancing to the Champions League semi-finals with a total score of 5:2 over two legs.
After all the matches ended, the newly promoted top four teams and their matchups were confirmed. Inter Milan will face "Gunners Arsenal," while AC Milan will play against Barcelona.
When Ronaldinho, who was celebrating the victory at a nightclub, heard this news, he was shocked. He rarely left early and didn\'t bring any beautiful women with him.
Since the match against Inter Milan at Paris Saint-Germain, Ronaldinho has not encountered Wang Feng again, but his career seems to have been influenced by the Chinese.
Replacing him at Barcelona, the tumultuous transfer rumors and the struggle for supremacy, the ongoing controversy over the FIFA World Player of the Year, everything will be revealed in the Champions League final!
He firmly believes that Barcelona\'s Dream Team can definitely make it to the final, and so can Inter Milan.
