Chapter 50
Inzaghi is still working hard to prepare for the comeback, and AC Milan also ushered in their fifth Serie A opponent Treviso in the 2005/2006 season.
In the previous game, Juventus defeated Chievo, and the gap with AC Milan in the table was widened to six points. After the start of the new season, Juventus maintained an impressive record in the league and was proud of the heroes.
Juventus won, the gap was further narrowed, and Ancelotti was also invincible. In the face of Treviso, AC Milan obviously has no pressure. The promoted horse has lost all four rounds, scoring only 1 goal and conceded 9 goals.
In this game, Ancelotti still formed a 4-3-1-2 attack formation, and the goalkeeper was still Dida. Right-back Stam replaced Cafut as the main force. Central defender Nesta partnered with Maltini. Maldini, who rested in the last round, returned. His Serie A games reached 571 games, breaking Zo In the original record, Serginho replaced Karadze as a left-back. In the midfield, Gattuso, Pirlo and Sedorf stood parallel, Kaka rushed forward, and Shevchenko partnered with Digan in the front line. Although Inzaghi went away with the team, Ancelotti only familiarized him with the atmosphere of the team.
Degan appeared in the starting lineup for two consecutive games, and his future in Milan gradually became brighter.
Treviso's home failure to meet the requirements was banned, and the game was still held in Padua. Dissatisfied Treviso fans issued a slogan: "It's better to play second division than this."
The most speechless thing is that Degan actually received applause from the home team fans when he played, and in the last game, he enjoyed real boos and abuse in San Siro.
It is ironic for both Degan and AC Milan fans.
Treviso is 53-2 in this game. Obviously, they have no confidence to win against AC Milan. It is a more realistic goal to keep a draw. The goalkeeper will be Zankope, five-backs Garentto, Viali, Lorenzi, Cotafava, Giuliato, midfield. Fillipini brothers partnered with Gallo, with Reginaldo and Fava on the front line.
In the second minute of the opening, Pirlo volleyed with his right foot 25 meters in front of the goal. The goalkeeper Zankope took off his hand and Shevchenko was ready to make up, but he was already in an offside position.
In the fourth minute, Maldini and Dida made a mistake, and the Brazilian had to attack and relieve the siege with their feet.
In the seventh minute, Pirlo took a free kick, and Shevchenko shot high from a small angle on the left side.
In the 18th minute, Kaka's middle breakthrough was put down, and Shevchenko hit the wall with a free kick with his right foot in front of the goal.
From the beginning of the game, the Milanese had an old problem again. They seemed to completely forget the side attack and only cared about forcing ground cooperation in the middle.
Kaka was fouled as soon as he got the ball, and so did Shevchenko and Digan. Treviso wanted to fight back defensively, but AC Milan made many mistakes in the midfield and took the initiative to hand over the ball control to the home team. Treviso inexplicably had the upper hand and was almost suppressed by Treviso, if it hadn't been for the striker Reginal. Duo and Fava missed good opportunities in a row, coupled with Stam's excellent performance, I'm afraid AC Milan's gate has long been lost.
When asked by reporters about the gap with Juventus before the game, Ancelotti also replied, "We have nothing to be jealous of them. We will compete with Juventus and Inter Milan until the last minute."
In fact, Ancelotti's team does lack the integrity and stability of Juventus, and in most cases relies on the individual performance of the stars to solve the problem.
Since then, Milan's defense has been in danger. In the 19th minute, Big Fillipini passed the header and Dida hit the ball, but Reginaldo did not seize the opportunity.
In the 22nd minute, Fava knocked back the ball in the penalty area, and Garentinto made a cross from the right side, but Reginaldo did not touch the ball, and Stam broke the bottom line.
In the 24th minute, Treviso took a free kick, and Viali's low shot with his right foot in front of the goal was confiscated by Dida.
For a while, Treviso, who should have shrank his head and asked for light abuse, actually found confidence in AC Milan, and the attack was successful. In comparison, AC Milan's defense line was stormy.
In the face of such a situation, Degan also seems helpless. He is not a superman, and it is impossible for him to play a single ride in every game to solve the opponent alone.
The team's midfield lacks protection, and it is difficult for the ball to reach his feet. More often, he even has to return to the midfield to help defend.
Gattuso is a tough guy. He can run all over the field for 90 minutes and has excellent defensive ability, but his slow passing frequency is exposed in this game.
And Sedorf, he is like the one who stands aside and sings folk songs. The war has nothing to do with him. What he prefers is to walk around the field like an artist, and then occasionally shine.
Relying on that completely uncertain flash, it is like winning, which is simply unreliable.
Degan also tried to break through, hoping to break the deadlock with his personal ability. Unfortunately, his long shot outside the penalty area was about to get into the goal, but he was damaged by Treviso's defender in time.
This chaotic situation lasted until the 41st minute. AC Milan finally seized an opportunity. In front of Treviso's penalty area, Kaka and Digan played a quick two-to-one cooperation. Kaka went straight to the penalty area. Digan quickly followed up. After his right foot passed Zankope, it was about to shoot at the moment when he was about to shoot. He was knocked down by the other party.
The referee blew the penalty without hesitation, and Degan got up and walked in. When he was in Atlanta, he had never taken a penalty. He didn't like this unskilled scoring method at all.
The chief free thrower in Milan was Pirlo, but this time, he gave the opportunity to Shevchenko. Digan scored repeatedly, but Shevchenko had not been able to open several games. He was under a lot of pressure. Standing in front of the penalty point, Shevchenko took a deep breath and easily pushed his right foot to score in the lower left corner. , 1:0.
In the first half of stoppage time, Shevchenko made a comeback, and his right rib suddenly picked a pass in front of the goal. Degan rushed out of the far post under the pressure of the defender and missed a good opportunity to score.
At the end of the half, Degan, who had thought he would definitely be replaced, was actually left on the court by Ancelotti, which was beyond his expectation, but Ancelotti's arrangement for the second half seemed to have nothing to do with Degan. He now plays the role of a free man on the court and is willing to do it. Do whatever you want, as long as you don't get into trouble. If you don't perform well, get out of the main lineup.
At the beginning of the second half, Treviso almost equalized the score. Filipini Jr. made a cross from the right, which made Milan's defense chaotic, and it was Stam to relieve the siege before Fava.
After receiving criticism, the Dutch tough guy finally broke out, and his performance so far in this game is simply impeccable.
Then, Big Filippini passed on the left, and Milan's defense was not far away. Reginaldo's low shot with his left foot in front of the goal was confiscated by Dida.
In the 48th minute, Reginaldo received a straight pass from his right rib. 17 meters in front of the goal, his right foot was stabbed, and the ball was slightly changed by Dida, which seemed to devigate from the far post. In order to avoid kicking the corner kick out of the sideline, Stam hit his thigh. Ancelotti could only replace Stam with Cafour.
In the 58th minute, Treviso's left cross was pushed out, and Garentto volleyed his right foot in front of the goal and hit Sedorf.
In the 62nd minute, Giuliato shook Gattuso and slid out of the far post with his right foot.
From the beginning of the second half, AC Milan seemed extremely flustered and could not control the rhythm at all. Although it had an advantage in ball control time, this advantage could not be turned into victory at all.
It was not until the 67th minute of the game that AC Milan got the first chance to score in the second half. Gattuso instigated the attack in the middle, Degan pulled the ball across the right and passed it to the middle, Kaka stopped the ball in the chest, and Gattuso volleyed the ball 14 meters in front of the goal and flew the ball.
In the 70th minute, Milan counterattacked and formed a three-three in the front court. Degan dribbled the ball in the middle and attracted two defenders, and Kaka pulled out a defender on the left side. Degan was not greedy this time. After attracting the opponent's defense, he divided the ball to the unmarked Shevchenko on the right side. The Ukrainian nuclear warhead was dumb this time. He shot vigorously in front of the door and slightly missed the far post.
After the attack, Digan found that Gilardino had been called to the sidelines by Ancelotti. Obviously, Ancelotti intended to replace Shevchenko?
Obviously impossible!
Only he is destined to be sacrificed!
Although a penalty has been created, if there is no goal, wouldn't it be grabbed by Ancelotti again after the game?
For good, in the 73rd minute, Degan's chance came. Kaka's left rib and right foot obliquely hung the goalpost, and Gattuso headed the ball to the other side. Degan risked hitting the post and flew close to the net in front of the goal line, 2:0!
After seeing Degan score the goal, Ancelotti on the sidelines changed his face and then patted Gilardino on the shoulder. The decision to replace him will not change.
After celebrating the goal with his teammates, Degan noticed that there had been a substitution sign on the sidelines, and it was indeed him who was replaced.
"Don't get into trouble!" When Degan finished, he did not forget to tell him that Degan could play the main force in two consecutive games, which clearly proved that his situation in Milan showed signs of improvement. Kaka did not want Degan to become more tense because of his big mouth and Ancelotti.
Degan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm not that bored. I'll bully a fat man for this little thing!"
Although Degan said so, his face obviously betrayed his heart. Degan would remain silent. In that case, it would be strange.
