Fortunately, after falling behind Lazio 0-1 away, although other teammates were not in good shape, Inter Milan still had Lu Wenbin, a super striker who has always performed relatively stably.
Ten minutes after Lazio scored, in the 38th minute, Stankovic made a cross from the bottom of the wing, and Lu Wenbin turned around and jumped after running in the penalty area, and made a stretched volley and shot the ball into Lazio's goal.
This wonderful overhead kick caused exclamations from the commentators and fans.
Biawa's goal was just luck and only earned him a momentary laugh.
Lu Wenbin's overhead kick was a truly wonderful goal, which excited thousands of Inter Milan fans who were traveling with the team away from home.
Inter Milan finally equalized the score with a goal scored by Lu Wenbin.
However, after Lu Wenbin, who scored the goal, and Milito and others who were nearby celebrated, they found that Stankovic, who had assisted Lu Wenbin with a cross from the bottom, did not come up to celebrate with them.
Everyone looked towards the side and found that Stankovic was sitting on the ground, holding his right leg and unable to stand up.
Stankovic strained his calf muscle when passing the ball just now and had to be replaced by Mourinho. No. 29 Coutinho came on as a substitute.
In the next few minutes, neither side was able to score a goal and everyone entered the halftime break with a score of 1-1.
After a 15-minute break, the two sides changed sides and continued the game.
Lazio, playing at home, did show their extraordinary strength, forcing even an experienced central defender like Samuel to make mistakes.
In the 66th minute, Lazio striker Floccari dribbled into the frontcourt. Samuel accidentally stretched out his foot and tripped Floccari, giving Lazio a free kick in the frontcourt with an excellent position and distance.
Although Castellazzi directed several tall players to form a human wall carefully, Lazio midfielder Hernanes still succeeded in one fell swoop and directly kicked the free kick into the blind corner of the goal.
Castellachi was out of reach and could only watch helplessly as the ball went into the net.
Lazio took the lead again, with the score 2-1. The home Lazio fans cheered and screamed loudly to celebrate their lead over the top team Inter Milan again.
However, Inter Milan did not give up.
Although other players were not in good shape, Lu Wenbin stood out again.
In the 79th minute, Lu Wenbin scored a goal with a signature long-distance counterattack. After passing two people, he took a powerful long shot from outside the penalty area, and a world-class goal blew open Lazio's goal.
Lu Wenbin scored twice to help Inter Milan tie Lazio 2-2.
After 3 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle to end the game. Inter Milan, which was in poor form, escaped from the Rome Olympic Stadium unscathed thanks to Lu Wenbin's two goals.
Both of Inter Milan's goals came from Lu Wenbin, which brought his Serie A scoring streak to 10 games, one game away from Batistuta's record.
His total number of goals in 2010 also reached 88, just 6 away from his own annual record of 94 goals set last year.
After the game, the focus of media reports was still on Lu Wenbin.
As the world's most valuable player and the scheduled winner of the Ballon d'Or, Lu Wenbin has become the focus of every game, not to mention that he scored two goals in this game.
Biawa's goal was just a sideline, while Lu Wenbin's double goal was the hot topic that everyone was chasing and reporting on.
Countless people are eagerly waiting for Lu Wenbin to tie Batistuta's consecutive Serie A goals and for his total annual goals to break the 90-goal mark.
However, after this league game, Inter Milan will suspend the league and complete the last game of the Champions League group stage first.
On December 7, in the last round of the 2010/2011 UEFA Champions League group stage, Inter Milan visited Greece to play against Panathinaikos.
Inter Milan, who have already qualified, are three points ahead of Tottenham and can secure first place in the group with a draw.
Therefore, Mourinho rotated a lot of players and played defensive counterattacks away from home.
Panathinaikos, playing at home, is ranked as a second-tier team and its strength is not as weak as it appears.
Moreover, they also have the possibility of striving for third place and playing in the Europa League knockout stage.
Therefore, they did not take this game perfunctorily and put considerable pressure on Inter Milan amid the cheers of the home fans.
However, it was precisely because Panathinaikos had to adopt an offensive tactic that their backcourt gave Inter Milan a lot of space for counterattack.
In the 18th minute, taking advantage of the opportunity when Panathinaikos' attack was interrupted, Coutinho assisted Lu Wenbin to score the first goal of the counterattack.
When Lu Wenbin scored the goal, the Italian commentator shouted:
“Goooooooooooooooal…”
"The 89th goal, Lu Wenbin's 89th goal of the year!"
"He has already scored 89 goals in 2010, only one goal away from the 90-goal mark!"
"Lu, the all-powerful super shooter, proved to us that the annual goal record of 94 goals he set last year was not luck!"
Commentators from other countries and TV stations also sang praises for Lu Wenbin, and the sports commentator from China's CCTV was so excited that his voice was shaking.
Thousands of Inter Milan fans who traveled with the team to away games also gave warm applause and screams, and paid homage to Lu Wenbin!
Inter Milan led Panathinaikos 1-0 away from home thanks to Lu Wenbin's first goal.
After Inter Milan scored a goal, Panathinaikos players were even more anxious to attack and equalize the score.
However, Inter Milan, who originally played defensive counterattacks, naturally felt more comfortable with this situation.
In the 35th minute, Lu Wenbin counterattacked with the ball and shot from outside the penalty area, resulting in a corner kick. Lucio scored Inter Milan's second goal in the header of the corner kick.
Lu Wenbin assisted Lucio to score the second goal, and Inter Milan led Panathinaikos 2-0 away from home.
Such a score made Panathinaikos players and fans a little frustrated.
Perhaps, they really can only accept the fate of being eliminated.
However, on the court, although luck cannot be touched or seen, it does exist.
In an attack just before the end of the first half, Panathinaikos was unable to break into Inter Milan's penalty area guarded by Lucio, Corvado and Zanetti, and had no choice but to take a long shot from outside the penalty area.
The quality of this long shot was not high and it did not pose much threat. Goalkeeper Cesar immediately moved to the path of the ball.
As a result, Lucio stretched out his foot to clear the ball, but not only did he fail to clear it, but he touched the ball and changed its path.
The ball went into the goal from the opposite direction of Cesar's save. Cesar, whose center of gravity was opposite, couldn't even make a save and could only look back and watch the ball go into the net.
Panathinaikos scored a goal with a lucky goal, and the score became 1-2, with Inter Milan leading by only one goal. (Seeking monthly votes)
