Chapter 119 Predictive Abbiati
After the start of the second half of the game, AC Milan really added a breakthrough, and it seemed that it was intended to create a foul for Gosho. In the fourth minute of the second half, after Robinho received a pass from Boateng on the left side of the front court, in the face of Ivanovic's defense, he stepped on a few bicycles and suddenly broke through from the right side of Ivanovic's tail, but Ivanovic's reaction was also very fast, and he quickly moved back to his center of gravity. He fell to the ground and shoveled the ball out of the sideline, but he also knocked Robinho to the ground.
The whistle of the referee on duty, Burns, blew a foul on Ivanovic. AC Milan got a free kick about 30 meters away from the goal on the front of the left side of the penalty area. Ivanovic did not have too much entangled with the referee and ran directly to build a wall.
Montolivo came forward to take this free kick. The free kick he made was of high quality. The ball drew a beautiful arc, bypassed the human wall, and then there was a sharp fall and went straight to the lower left corner of the goal. However, Checarelli was already prepared. He began to move when Montorivo just kicked the ball, and then He kicked hard on the ground, threw it sideways, and hit the ball out of the left sideline with two fists.
In the 53rd minute of the second half, Niang's breakthrough on the right side also caused Avanzini's foul. AC Milan got a free kick on the right side. After Montolivo made a free kick, Zapata grabbed the header, but his header was higher than the crossbar.
From these two Gosho's fouls, Lin Fenglei saw AC Milan's tactical intention in the second half. He walked to the side of the court and called captain Avanzini to teach him a good chance, so that they could foul in advance when AC Milan attacked, interrupt AC Milan's offensive rhythm, and stay away from the goal. The place gave them an irrelevant free kick.
In the following game, Gosho began a tough defense near the midfield and fouled in advance before the AC Milan players approached the dangerous area. Such a defense caused AC Milan's attack to be interrupted frequently, making AC Milan's offensive organization no longer so smooth, and they got a free kick. It is also very far from the goal, and it is difficult to pose any threat.
AC Milan's performance in the attack was much better than in the first half about ten minutes after the opening of the second half, and their momentum was getting stronger and stronger. However, after Gosho adopted new defensive tactics, their momentum suddenly fell down and there was no such sharpness.
The Gosho team took the opportunity to launch several counterattacks. Every time after breaking AC Milan's ball or defending AC Milan's shot, the ball can always come to Ivanovic's feet for the first time, and Ivanovic can always play the ball at the first time, sending the ball to the weakest link of AC Milan's defense, let AC Milan is very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, Allegri is very afraid of Gosho's counterattack, so that AC Milan's defense should maintain at least four people at all times. This arrangement effectively curbs the speed of Gosho's counterattack and gives AC Milan's other players time to defend back. In addition, Abbiati is old and strong, and Gosho's counterattacked several times. I didn't get it.
The game has entered a stalemate. The Gosho team is actively recovering the formation, while AC Milan is afraid. The two teams do not invest much troops in the attack, so their attacks lack continuity and a sense of hierarchy, and it is difficult to really pose a threat to the opponent's goal.
However, this situation is what Lin Fenglei hopes to see, but it is different for Allegri. Going on like this is tantamount to chronic suicide. If he returns to San Siro with a score of 0:2, it will be really difficult to turn over.
Allegri raised his head and looked at the big screen above the court. The big screen showed that the game time had reached 70 minutes. He suddenly felt like sitting on pins and could no longer sit on the coach's seat. He walked to the side of the court again and urged his players to strengthen the attack.
At the urging of Allegri, the offensive of AC Milan's players became more fierce. In the 73rd minute, Constant assisted to the front court. After a two-to-one cooperation with Niang, he took the ball to the 30-meter area of Gosho, and then picked up and passed it to the middle. Sarawi's flexible running position grabbed the landing point. He jumped to the top and headed the ball to Gosho's goal, but his strong rushed to the top. It was unable to break through Checarelli's defense. Because the ball was slightly positive, Checarelli pressed the ball tightly under him with a side push.
While the players of AC Milan were still regretful and sighing, Checarelli jumped up from the ground very quickly, and then threw the ball to Ivanovic. Ivanovic got rid of Boateng, who was the earliest reaction to rush to him, and then passed the ball to Yan with a long diagonal pass 40 meters away. Avanzini is plugged in on the left side of the highway.
When Chekaleri rose into the air and pounced on the ball, Avanzini began to start keenly. When Ivanovic passed the ball, he had already run to AC Milan's half. At this time, Constance had no time to come back because of the half of Gosho's assist. The left side where Avanzini is on is An open space.
AC Milan's midfield Montolivo had no choice but to move in the direction of Avazzini to intercept the most threatening Avazzini with the ball under his feet now. However, when he just approached Avazzini, Avazzini suddenly accelerated again on the basis of the already very fast speed and suddenly broke through from the outside. With Montolivo's defense, Montolivo is not a player who is good at speed. He can't keep up with Avanzini at all. In surprise, Montolivo wants to reach out to pull Avanzini. Even if he carries a yellow card for this, he can't realize such a wish. When he stretched out his hand, he only grabs it. There was a gust of wind.
Montolivo turned around and only saw Avanzini's back. After Avanzini broke through him, only when he turned around, he had run four or five meters away. Then Montolivo saw Avanzini swung his left foot and sent a pass.
Before Avanzini broke through Montolivo, Egman began to start. He was very confident in Avanzini's ability. He had no doubt that Avanzini could break through successfully, so when Avanzini sent a cross, he sprinted and then jumped high. When he jumped to the highest point, the ball just flew. In front of him.
Egman jumped so high that he had to lower his head to hit the ball. He could see the panicked expression on the faces of Zapata and Mex, who were desperately pulling his jersey under him. He smiled ferociously at the two of them, and then hit the ball. He pushed the ball to the upper right corner of the goal. He I'm very sure that the ball will fly against the crossbar and score the goal. No one can save this shot.
But when Egman landed, his face was full of consterren, because he thought that no one could save the shot that Abiati pulled out the crossbar with his fingertips and flew out of the bottom line, and then the Gosho fans made a huge sigh.
Duan Xuan's voice sounded: "Avanzini passed Montolivo and sent a cross. Egman jumped high and headed the goal. Abbiati, Abbiati, he made an incredible save, and he pulled the ball out of the crossbar. Let's take a look at the slow motion. When Egman jumped up, Abiati began to move. He seemed to have the ability to move to the right side of the goal. It happened that Egman's header was also at that angle. Even if Abiati moved in advance, he jumped as hard as he could to push the ball out. If he had started a little slower, he would not have saved the shot.
"Whether Abbiati has the ability to predict or not, this save is also very wonderful, and it is also a very important save. If Egman's shot scored another goal, AC Milan can basically declare that he will be eliminated. The 37-year-old Abbiati is still doing everything he has. The ability to save his favorite AC Milan, other players of AC Milan and their head coach Allegri should thank Abbiati.
