Inter Milan vs Urawa Red Diamond:

1. Recent status and core issues: As the runner-up of the Champions League, Inter Milan has shown its top strength in the European game, but there are obvious hidden dangers in its recent status. In the first game of the Club World Cup draw with Monterrey 1-1, the team's possession rate was as high as 62%, but only 15 shots were directed, exposing the problem of inefficient ending on the front line. In addition, the defense line is not stable enough, and it averages 1.8 goals per game in the last 10 games. Five core players including the main central defender Bisek and midfielder Calhanoglu are absent due to injuries, resulting in weakening of midfield control and increasing pressure on defensive rotation. The psychological shadow of the 0-5 defeat in the Champions League final has not completely dissipated. Coupled with the media's controversy over coaching changes, the team's morale is at a low point.

2. Tactical characteristics and key to breaking the situation: Inter Milan continues its 3-5-2 formation, relying on the wingbacks (such as Augusto)'s wing attacks and crosses, combined with Lautaro Martinez's ability to grab points in the penalty area. Height advantage (average height 8cm taller than Urawa) is an important weapon, especially the header's ability to grab points by young forward Pio Esposito (the Golden Boot of Serie B last season) may become a variable. However, lack of players in the midfield may lead to a decrease in passing accuracy. If Barrera cannot effectively suppress Urawa midfielder Ima Watanabe's midfielder core, Inter Milan's ball-handling advantage will be difficult to convert into goals.

1. Recent performance and tactical positioning: As the AFC Champions League champion, Urawa Red Diamond lost to Riverbed 1-3 in the first game, exposing the problems of insufficient confrontation ability and frequent mistakes under high pressure. The team relies on the 4-2-3-1 formation to shrink the defense line, creating a counterattack threat through Savio's (4 assists)'s wing break and Yusuke Matsuo's back insertion. Settings are an important scoring method. Midfielder Watanabe Ryoma (6 goals in the league) is the core of offense and defense conversion, but if he is locked by Inter Milan, the counterattack system will be paralyzed.

2. Failure in away games and psychological difficulties: Urawa has only 1 win, 4 draws and 4 losses in his last 10 away games, has weak ability to fight in other places, and has a high rate of conceding in the half-time goal in the face of high-intensity pressing. After the first game between River Plate, the player admitted that he was "cowardly before the fight" and had a psychological disadvantage. However, the speed and finishing ability of new player Ao Komori (22 goals in the Japanese Golden Boot) may become a surprise player, so you need to be wary of his explosion in the counterattack.

Comprehensive analysis:

Inter Milan has an absolute advantage in lineup depth and tactical maturity, and the pressure to qualify forces the team to win. Despite injuries and psychological problems, the personal abilities of core players such as Lautaro and Barrera can still tear open the Urawa defense line. If Urawa wants to be upset, he needs to rely on efficient counterattacks, goalkeeper super performance and Inter Milan's defense line mistakes, but the probability is less than 10%. Inter Milan has the advantage in strength but needs to overcome injuries and psychological shadows, while Urawa Red Diamond needs to strive for survival with resilience and tactical execution. This battle is not only the key to Inter Milan's rebuilding confidence, but also the touchstone for Asian teams to test the gap with the top European level.
