Saying "Raul's goal brought both sides back to the same starting line" is incorrect because Napoli is currently leading on aggregate, and they also have an away goal, which offsets Inter Milan's hard-earned away goal advantage.

Understanding this, you can comprehend why Leonardo was so furious after Raul's goal.

His anger wasn't directed at Cesar. The Brazilian goalkeeper's legs had already done a tremendous job of stopping Chen Hero's header on the goal line; it was almost divine intervention.

His anger was because of those defenders. There were four Inter Milan players around Raul at the time, all of whom had failed to stop Chen Hero and only appeared there after that.

And Raul was right in the middle of those four people. He looked like a small boat that could be overturned by a big wave at any moment.

But it was he who managed to get to the football...

Four people!

A full four people, none of whom touched the football, and Raul got the point!

How could Leonardo not be angry?

It was as if someone was rubbing salt in his wounds, and Mazzarri was celebrating particularly wildly next door.

After scoring, Raul didn't kiss his fingers this time. Instead, he ran to the corner flag, knelt down, slid on the ground, and struck a very cool pose.

His teammates followed his example, sliding over and hugging him tightly.

The Spanish commentator was extremely excited: "Raul has scored his seventy-second Champions League goal of his career! An evergreen legend! He is the undisputed best scorer in Champions League history and the best scorer in European competition history! He has surpassed the Bomber Gerd Muller, he has surpassed Filippo Inzaghi! He is unique! He has been reborn in Napoli! I don't know if Mourinho and Florentino will regret letting go of such an outstanding player, but I know that Napoli has picked up a great bargain!"

The Chinese commentator He Ping took the opportunity to tease Real Madrid: "We all remember that the two teams that reached the Champions League final last season were Inter Milan and Bayern Munich, and both of these teams had purchased two players from Real Madrid during the transfer window before the season started, namely Sneijder and Robben. In the end, Inter Milan, with Sneijder, defeated Bayern Munich and lifted the Champions League trophy. It seems that having a Real Madrid player can at least get you into the final, and if you're lucky, you can win the championship. Now Napoli has brought Raul from Real Madrid, is it precisely because they see this point?"

Of course, for Real Madrid fans, this joke was not funny at all. So He Ping was once again besieged and criticized by Chinese Real Madrid fans on Weibo...

Raul equalized the score for Napoli, and the match returned to equilibrium.

However, it seemed that Inter Milan, playing at home, did indeed have more advantages. They had more attacking opportunities and were more threatening.

It seemed as if they could break through Napoli's goal again at any moment.

After attacking for more than ten minutes, they got their wish.

In the thirty-second minute, Napoli's defense had a problem, and Milito successfully beat the offside trap, received Cambiasso's headed pass, and easily volleyed the ball into the goal.

"Ah! Ah! Inter Milan! They scored again! Diego Milito seized the opportunity very keenly!"

"Inter Milan equalized the score again, so the aggregate score is the same for both sides, and the number of away goals is also the same. If this score continues until the end of the game, Napoli and Inter Milan will have to play extra time..."

"Milito saved Inter Milan! He ended his goal drought since January 19th and scored his first Champions League goal since last year's Champions League final! Although he hasn't scored many goals, this one is very important!"

After scoring, Milito ran excitedly to the sidelines and celebrated the goal with the Inter Milan players on the bench.

A huge cheer rang out again in the Meazza Stadium.

Leonardo waved his fist forcefully, happy for the goal.

"Playing at home is indeed different, it looks like Inter Milan is in good form in this game! Their performance is completely different from their performance at Napoli's home ground. From the beginning of this game, Inter Milan has been actively attacking, showing the momentum of their treble-winning team!"

"I think after this game, the criticism of Leonardo that arose from losing the Milan derby should disappear completely. Regardless of whether Inter Milan can win this game or not, the spirit shown by the team alone is enough for Inter Milan fans to see hope..."

The commentators were all praising Inter Milan's performance, as if Inter Milan had a tremendous advantage in the game.

But Inter Milan's joy did not last long.

※※※

Seven minutes later, Napoli equalized the score again!

This time, Chen Hero sent a through ball on the counterattack, and Arshavin succeeded in shooting after breaking through!

When Napoli shot the football into Cesar's goal for the second time, the entire Meazza Stadium fell into a brief silence.

"Napoli's tenacity is far beyond Inter Milan fans' expectations!" the commentator said.

Yes!

Napoli's tenacity completely exceeded the expectations of everyone at Inter Milan, not just the fans, but even Inter Milan's coach Leonardo underestimated them.

"Two away goals! Napoli is leading Inter Milan again on aggregate! Now it is meaningless for Inter Milan to win this game 3:2! They will be eliminated because they have fewer away goals, now they have to beat Napoli 4:2 at home!"

"And they have to prevent Napoli from scoring..." The commentator chimed in. "I think that's the hardest thing..."

※※※

After Napoli equalized the score again, neither side scored until the end of the first half. The game went straight into halftime with a score of 2:2.

For Napoli, this was a favorable score, so they all wore smiles on their faces when they went off the field, looking very relaxed.

And what about the Inter Milan players? They frowned and looked a little depressed. They obviously hadn't figured out that at their home stadium, it wasn't surprising that they could score two goals in forty-five minutes. But why could the opponent also score two goals?

What exactly did these Napoli players eat? They also lost to them when they came to Meazza in the league, why is their performance completely different in the Champions League?

The television broadcast gave Leonardo a close-up shot. The Brazilian's face was also very serious, and he probably had the same confusion as the Inter Milan players.

※※※

During the halftime break, Mazzarri praised and encouraged the team's performance, telling the players to continue like this in the second half and keep up the good work.

On the other side, Leonardo was frowning and analyzing what went wrong in the first half for the players...

After analyzing it back and forth, he didn't analyze anything useful. Instead, he made the players more and more confused. In this way, the precious fifteen-minute halftime break was wasted.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again. When the Napoli players took to the field, everyone's eyes were very clear, and the expressions on their faces were very natural.

And the Inter Milan players either lowered their heads or frowned, almost exactly the same as when they went off the field in the first half—they still haven't figured it out yet...

Inter Milan was indeed trapped in some kind of mental confusion. They didn't know why they played impeccably in the first half, but the other side scored two goals without making a sound? Could Stankovic's super world-class goal in the first twenty-five seconds of the game not dampen their morale and confuse them?

Of course, they don't understand. Because they cannot understand how strong Napoli's determination to avenge Barcelona is now.

It's as if they will die with lingering resentment if they can't settle the score with Barcelona from last season.

The strong desire for revenge is the main driving force for Napoli to continue to advance in the Champions League. As for the championship, it has become secondary...

A person who is determined to seek revenge is terrible, and eleven... no, more than twenty people who are determined to seek revenge are gathered together, and the power formed by resentment and hatred is even greater.

How can Inter Milan, a team that has lost its hunger for honor, stop them?

※※※

"Okay, the referee blows the whistle and the second half begins! In the first half, Napoli unexpectedly drew with their opponent at Inter Milan's home stadium, and it was impossible to tell that they were playing away. So what kind of game will they bring us in the second half?"

"Inter Milan has been forced into a desperate situation—isn't it cheeky to say that just as the second half of the game has just begun? But that's actually the case. Inter Milan must score at least two goals in the second half, and they must also prevent Napoli from scoring, both of which are difficult enough..."

"Inter Milan should forget the first half, where they took the lead twice, only to be equalized by the opponent twice, and put all their thoughts into the second half of the game."

"I think Hero is the key figure. Although he didn't score in the first half, he was related to both of Napoli's goals. Raul's goal was indirectly assisted by him, and Arshavin's goal was directly assisted by him... If you want to prevent Napoli from scoring, Hero is the target that must be frozen!"

Someone is offering advice to Inter Milan.

Obviously, after the forty-five minutes of the first half, many people have already felt the danger of Napoli.

Don't look at the fact that Inter Milan is at their home stadium, they may really be pulled down by Napoli...

Because many of them suddenly remembered that the Inter Milan team led by Mourinho last season, the invincible treble-winning team that dominated Europe, was double-killed by Napoli in the league.

Not to mention the current Inter Milan team, whose desire to win is far less than before...

Mourinho couldn't stop them, can Leonardo?
