Catania 2-1 Inter: Cambiasso is not enough
Saturday, 15 October 2011 20:23:51
CATANIA - Inter were at the Stadio Angelo Massimino, and things still weren't going right. The game ended as a 2-1 defeat against Catania, and once again it was a penalty – the fourth one awarded against the Nerazzurri this season – that decided the match.
Inter quickly took the lead through Cambiasso on a cross from Maicon in the 6th minute, and the left-footed volley from "El Cuchu" made it 0-1. Then everything changed in the second half. First came a great goal from Almiron, followed by a penalty awarded for a foul on Berghessio, although it was clear that the player allowed himself to fall under contact with Castellazzi. Lodi then stepped up to the spot and made it 2-1.
FIRST HALF - Claudio Ranieri had to deal with the absence of two suspended players (Ranocchia and Obi) and six players who were still unavailable (Sneijder, Chivu, Coutinho, Forlan, Julio Cesar and Poli). To face Catania he chose Castellazzi in goal, a 4-man midfield of Zanetti, Cambiasso, Muntari and Stankovic in support of attackers Milito and Pazzini.
A heavy rain welcomed Inter onto the pitch of the Stadio Angelo Massimino and the meeting was a special return for Ranieri; from 1982 to 1984 he wore the Rossoazzurra shirt for a total of 92 matches. And the Nerazzurri coach managed to transmit his own enthusiasm to his team, which went ahead after only 6 minutes of play. It came courtesy of Cambiasso, who finished off a move initiated by Milito and Maicon with a diagonal volley from his left foot to make the score 1-0. The Sicilians showed their teeth in the 16th minute through Izco, when the Italo-Argentine crossed from the end-line and sent a dangerous ball that Maicon cleared with Castellazzi rooted to his line. A chance for Inter came in minute 28 with a cross from Maicon for Milito, whose shot was deflected by Legrottaglie for a corner. In the 33rd minute Izco took off like a bullet and found Gomez in ahead of him, but the Argentine scuffed his shot and Castellazzi collected the rebound, unaffected by the pressure of Bergessio. Three minutes later Spolli went down after contact with Muntari on a corner but was able to continue playing in the rain that showed no sign of stopping. After a minute of injury time both teams went into the dressing rooms with the score at 0-1 from Cambiasso's goal.
SECOND HALF – The whistle blew to start play and Catania immediately became dangerous. Another deadly counterattack in the 47th minute brought them level thanks to Almiron who, served by Bergessio, shot first-time past a helpless Castellazzi. Inter responded at the other end when Maicon crossed to Muntari who had a go with a scissor-kick, but his ambitious attempt was off target. On another Catania attack Berghessio took off and faced down Castellazzi one-on-one before letting himself fall in what was an honest to goodness dive as the keeper went low for the ball and made contact only with the ground. However, Orsato saw it differently. He booked the Nerazzurri keeper and awarded a penalty that Lodi converted to make the score 2-1.
Inter did not give up. After some nice build-up, Maicon crossed into the box but the danger was cleared by Bellusci. In the 60th minute Ranieri made three substitutions: two tactical (Alvarez and Zarate for Stankovic and Milito) and one obligatory (Samuel left for a muscle problem, replaced by Cordoba in his first appearance of the season). In the 73rd minute Zarate tried his luck from distance, but the ball ended up directly in the hands of Andujar. And two minutes later another excellent chance fell to Catania when Castellazzi saved with his feet on Delvecchio's shot, which Cordoba then cleared for a corner. In the 84th minute Castellazzi was again the protagonist; Catellani seemed sure to bag Catania's third goal when he was sent clear on a long pass, only to see the Nerazzurri keeper, facing him one-on-one in the box, palm the low shot away. Orsato added 4 minutes of injury time and Inter attempted to make the most of it, besieging the Sicilian box until the last possible moment. The ball would not go in, however, and the match ended at 2-1, leaving Inter with the same 4 points in the standings.

北京时间10月16日0时(意大利当地时间15日18时),意甲第7轮开始首场较量,国际米兰客场1比2负于卡塔尼亚,遭到联赛2连败,创造本队史上意甲前6轮最差开局。麦孔助攻坎比亚索首开纪录。下半时风云突变,国米4分钟内连丢2球,阿尔米隆扳平比分,贝格西奥疑似假摔骗得点球,这是国米连续2轮遭到误判,洛迪操刀命中。此后萨穆埃尔因伤下场。
国米两周前主场0比3惨败给那不勒斯,仅高出降级区1分。但国米此前客场连胜博洛尼亚和莫斯科中央陆军,如果在西西里取胜,将是2009年11月以来首次客场3连胜。由于拉涅利上诉成功,他可以在场边指挥比赛。弗兰在世界杯预选赛中拉伤跟腱,将缺阵2个月。斯内德、塞萨尔、齐沃、库蒂尼奥也因伤缺阵,但预计下周中欧冠都将复出。拉诺齐亚和奥比停赛。卡斯特拉齐把门,长友佑都和蒙塔里负责左路,阿尔瓦雷斯遭弃用,刚宣布退出国家队的斯坦科维奇打前腰,帕齐尼和米利托搭档锋线。
国米与卡塔尼亚近11场意甲交锋取胜10场,唯一败绩是2010年3月在西西里1比3负,而卡塔尼亚本赛季主场不败(2平1胜),正式比赛近11个主场仅负1场(4月17日意甲1比4负拉齐奥)。莱德斯马、波滕扎、阿尔瓦雷斯、苏亚索、比亚詹蒂缺阵,门将安杜哈尔第100代表意大利球会出战。蒙特拉担任教练未胜国米(1平1负),作为球员对阵国米战绩为4胜6平9负,总共打进12球。
比赛当天西西里岛风雨交加,拉涅利和蒙特拉都穿着雨披指挥。一开场,斯坦科维奇手球,洛迪右侧距门26米处左脚任意球被人墙挡出。随后伊斯科左路吊门偏出。国米第6分钟取得领先!米利托分球,麦孔右路传中,坎比亚索后点距门7米处左脚凌空打出弹地球入远角,1比0。
阿尔米隆外围抽射高出横梁。第27分钟,麦孔精准直塞禁区右侧,米利托传向中路两名队友,但被莱罗塔列抢先铲出底线。第33分钟,伊斯科反击分球到禁区左侧,但球意外弹起,戈麦斯距门13米处打呲。第36分钟,洛迪右侧开出任意球,斯波利头球蹭向远角被卢西奥破坏。第43分钟,斯波利铲倒米利托,被黄牌警告。
下半时开始59秒,国米中场丢球,贝格西奥中圈带球突击分到左侧,阿尔米隆禁区边缘右脚弧线球入大门右侧,1比1。第50分钟,里基乌蒂中场传过顶球,贝格西奥突入禁区面对出击扑救的卡斯特拉齐倒地,奥尔萨托吹罚点球!卡斯特拉齐还被出示黄牌。然而慢镜显示,卡斯特拉齐似乎并未碰到贝格西奥。洛迪主罚点球左脚推射中路得分,卡塔尼亚2比1反超!
阿尔瓦雷斯换下斯坦科维奇,萨拉特换下米利托。第61分钟,戈麦斯右路内切距门18米处左脚低射被卡斯特拉齐托出近门柱。萨穆埃尔右大腿拉伤,科尔多瓦本赛季首次出场,国米用完了换人名额,蒙特拉调整锋线,马克西-洛佩斯替下贝格西奥,德尔维奇奥换下里基乌蒂。第71分钟,萨拉特禁区左侧面对洛迪防守倒地,被判假摔吃到黄牌。2分钟后,萨拉特左肋闪开防守距门18米处抽射被安杜哈尔没收。第75分钟,德尔维奇奥禁区右侧斜射被卡斯特拉齐扑出,科尔多瓦险些将球挡进门内。
德尔维奇奥铲倒萨拉特,被黄牌警告。卡特拉尼换下戈麦斯。第82分钟,阿尔米隆外围低射偏出左门柱。随后卡塔尼亚中场断球直传,刚出场的卡特拉尼突单刀突入禁区左侧距门12米处左脚推射被卡斯特拉齐封出近门柱!第89分钟,卡特拉尼被萨内蒂击中,鼻子表皮被划破接受处理。补时阶段,贝卢希被黄牌警告。国米最终1比2落败。
