Frick s trick makes his beloved disciple become an undercover agent of Inter Milan, and his teammates can t stand it anymore

In the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals, the plot of Barcelona vs Inter Milan is full of twists and turns. With a 3-2 lead, Frick did not replace the defender in the last stage of regular time to strengthen the defense, but instead sent Lewandowski, who had just recovered from injury, which eventually led to a reverse of the opponent, which caused controversy.

Conde's dissatisfaction and Barcelona's regrets

According to the "Barça Reserve" program of Catalonia Radio, Frick's move to replace Lewandowski in injury time not only made many bystanders confused, but even many Barcelona players were very puzzled, and Conde even expressed his protest directly.

Corde, who was unable to play due to injury, went to Milan to watch the game with the team. After witnessing Flick's substitution in the stands, he told the people around him: "I don't understand why Lewandowski was replaced. With his current state, he shouldn't have played." Conde's words came true. Lewandowski missed two good opportunities in front of the goal after appearing, which not only caused the team to lose the lead in the last stage of regular time, but also did nothing after entering overtime.

Frick completed the mystery operation, while Inzaghi took the lead in the score and replaced Defrey to strengthen the defense. Barcelona could only vent their emotions with helpless long shots at the last moment, and the two coaches' on-the-spot adjustment levels immediately appeared.

Lewandowski's curse, Frick's stubbornness

When playing for Bayern Munich, Lewandowski had been absent from the Champions League due to injury many times, resulting in the team being eliminated due to weakness in the center position. In the 2020/21 season, Frick led the team to the Champions League title journey. Lewandowski was injured again before the knockout round started. Bayern Munich lost to Paris Saint-Germain and was blocked from the semi-finals.

This experience left an indelible memory for Frick. He mentioned this matter many times in an interview later, which indirectly affected today's substitution. Perhaps it was because he believed that Lewandowski's physical condition had met the requirement of being able to play for a few minutes on the bench, or perhaps because he hoped that his beloved disciple could warm up for the weekend's national derby in advance, Frick made a substitution move that seemed to be humiliating his opponent at the end of the regular period. Inter Milan knew the shame and then bravely, not only equalized the score, but also achieved a final victory.
