Chapter 60 Stop, Don't Fall

Before the first half ended, Fiorentina had already led by two goals. Looking at Degan flying on the court with open arms, AC Milan fans were stunned and even forgot to boo.

Just a week ago, they were on this stadium to celebrate the eighth Champions League trophy in the team's history, listening to Ancelotti's words, waiting to achieve three consecutive European championships next season and continue to catch up with Real Madrid's nine championships.

But now, the development of the situation seems to be completely contrary to their expectations. Albertini and Degan, the old Milan generals, have almost pushed AC Milan down the abyss.

Digan is not like Albertini. Although he is a fan of AC Milan, he has no feelings for AC Milan led by Ancelotti. He not only wants to celebrate, but also celebrate presumptuously.

His teammates wanted to hold him, but Degan didn't give them this opportunity at all. He wanted to run and enjoy it. He wanted to tell the gloomy fat pig on the sidelines to drive him away, which was the worst thing Ancelotti had done in his life.

If there was a crack on the ground at this moment, Ancelotti would have been in for a long time. The two people he drove away slapped his fat face fiercely. This feeling is really uncomfortable.

Think about what Galliani said when he expelled Albertini and asked him for his opinion: "He is not in my plan. What Milan needs now needs young blood, but some old players are holding the position that should belong to young people. Going on, AC Milan It will only stagnate. Even if he stays and defends the ranking of the midfield in my heart, he is the last. We need to be responsible for his career, and the club does not need to spend so much money to raise a player we don't use.

So, Albertini was driven away, Ancelotti took over Pirlo and creatively invented the tactics of the front waist and back, leading AC Milan to win the Champions League and Serie A.

Then there is Degan, Ancelotti admits that Degan is a very good striker, even better than Shevchenko. Perhaps only Ronaldo at his peak can compete with him.

But Degan's character was intolerable to him. He did not allow different voices to appear in the team, and he could not tolerate anyone questioning his authority, so Degan was also driven away.

"He is an excellent player, but he is not in my plan for next season, and his injury is fatal to a professional player. I don't think he can return to his best state in the future, so it is good for everyone to break up kindly now. He can continue to enjoy football in a small team. We can also put down a burden and move on!"

Then, Ancelotti successfully defended his title and won the third Champions League trophy of his coaching career.

Everything seems to be fine. Although he was criticized for driving away Albertini and Digan, his excellent record and leading the team made those doubts smaller and smaller. People even began to euple him with the two greatest coaches in AC Milan's history, Saki and Capello, Ancelotti It may even become the Ferguson of AC Milan.

But it turns out that he thinks too much, not to report, the time has not come!

The two people who were once driven away by him now come back hand in hand to revenge. Ancelotti shudder at the thought that his team would become the first defending champion in the history of the Champions League to miss the competition.

He absolutely can't allow such a situation to happen, absolutely not!

Ancelotti's big head is thinking nonsense, and the first half of the game is over, 0:2! This score makes everyone who loves Milan faceless.

In the stands, Berlusconi's face was already gloomy and scary, and Galliani, who was sitting next to him, did not dare to say more, but looking at Berlusconi's appearance, he hesitated for a moment and couldn't help saying, "Mr. Chairman, do I need me to meet the locker room to meet the players? I think at this time We should make them nervous!"

Berlusconi shook his head: "No! Didn't Ancelotti always say that he wanted to have greater rights and autonomy? I will give him this right now, and today's bad situation should be solved by him, not us!"

Gallani's face suddenly changed when he heard the words. Berlusconi was not satisfied with Ancelotti, which is something that everyone knows. The head coach he admires more should be Milanese such as Ricard and Van Basten.

Although Ancelotti has also played in Milan, and even started his coaching career in Milan, Ancelotti's coaching style is conservative and completely contrary to the sexy football advocated by Berlusconi, so he is not favored by Berlusconi.

However, Ancelotti's leading team results are excellent, whether it is luck or noble help. In short, in the five and a half years since he joined Milan in the middle of the 2001/2002 season, he has led the team to win three Champions League titles, one Serie A champion, and a Coppa Italia. The champion and two European Super Cups.

Galliani did not want Ancelotti to leave, but today, listening to Berlusconi's tone, it is not difficult to guess that the former Italian prime minister's dissatisfaction with Ancelotti has reached its limit.

The failure of a game can hide all the glory before.

"Mr. Chairman, Carol's lead result~~~~~~~~"

Berlusconi waved his hand and interrupted Galliani: "Adrian! I know what you're going to say, don't worry! I won't fire him, at least not now. I just want him to know that I'm very dissatisfied. He must make a change and give up his damn conservative ideas!"

Berlusconi finished speaking, looked at the scoreboard at San Siro Stadium and muttered to himself, "If Albertini and Degan hadn't left AC Milan, maybe we could dominate Europe now!"

If!

If again!

People always like to say if when they encounter things, but where do so many ifs come from in the world?

It's time to start the second half. When AC Milan's players walked out of the player channel, although they tried to be calm, their eyes were at a loss. Obviously, Ancelotti still failed to solve any problems in the locker room.

No one knows the crux of AC Milan now. Maybe they have found it, but they just don't want to change it.

After the Champions League final, for most Milan players, the season is over and everything is over. There is no need to work hard on the court. What they want most now is to find a resort to enjoy the sun, beach, sea and beauty with their families, and enjoy a rare leisure time.

Just like now, their people are on the court, but their hearts have already flown to the Maldives, Bali, Hawaii and Miami.

Digan can feel the hearts of Milan players, and everything is fine.

Long before the start of the UEFA Champions League final, Degan knew that it was time for a dynasty to collapse, and today he sent Milan into the abyss with his own hands.

In Degan's previous life, the end of the Milan dynasty was also after the end of the night of Athens. With the joy of winning the Champions League, Milan fell into a dark period. Although there was also a brief restoration of Allegri during this period, Milan has been left behind by the first-class European team.

"Demi! Isn't it special to bury your beloved team with your own hands?"

Albertini kept exposing the wound to Degan, and he couldn't laugh or cry: "Rod! The game is not over yet!"

Digan smiled and said, "I know, but look at what they look like. This game is 90 minutes away, and it's the same result. Their minds are no longer on the court!"

Galliani probably didn't expect this situation before. Originally, he wanted to rely on AC Milan's power in Italian football, including Florence and Liverpool by the way, but the Yin people themselves are a double-edged sword, hurting others and hurting themselves.

The Champions League successfully defended the title, but the spirit of the players has also been almost consumed.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Milan's performance failed to make a 180-degree turn as his supporters hoped. They were still absent-minded, still irritable and angry.

Some people are still insisting, Maldini, Gattuso, Kaka.

Maldini insisted that he was the captain, and he had the responsibility to put the whole team on his shoulders. He could not fall down. At any time, he must show his fighting side.

Gattuso is also insisting that his persistence is due to his nature. If there is no end to the desire for victory in this Milan team at present, it must be Gattuso. He is a butcher and a warrior.

Kaka is also insisting. He insists that there is his brother Digan in the other party's camp. Although the relationship between the two brothers is very good off the court, they are competitors and endless competitors. The two have the same surname, and the same surname is also destined. The collision between them will be more fierce than anything else.

It's just that the persistence of the three of them looked a little futile. Maldini struggled to cramp. Gattuso's forehead was in a collision of Ledesma. Blood flowed, and Kaka could only fight alone more often.

Ancelotti thought of a replacement, but the first person he replaced was a little surprised by Costa Kuta!

An old Milan minister who has long announced that he will retire after the end of this season.

When old Billy walked on the court, AC Milan was powerless, but looking at him, it seemed that the battle had just begun. When he came to a familiar position, Costakuta suddenly shouted: "Stand up, the game is not over yet!" Milan doesn't have the habit of accepting fate on his stomach!"

When it comes to AC Milan's iconic players, people usually think of several names, such as Baresi, Maldini, Albertini, and Costacuta.

Costakuta, born in Orago, first entered AC Milan's first team in 1985/86, but his first appearance in Serie A was on October 25, 1987. AC Milan defeated Verona 1-0 away and scored by Virdis. Costa Kuta came on as a substitute in that game and completed his debut at AC Milan.

More than a dozen cold and heat, when the 2001/02 season ended, Costa Kuta once announced his retirement from AC Milan and made a plan to retire to the American Major League.

However, at the end of August, when the league was about to start, AC Milan persuaded Costa Kuta to return to Italy. Since then, Costakuta has been at ease with AC Milan's bench, always standing up when the team needs it, and maintaining a good state.

In the 20 years of AC Milan, Costa Cuta made 454 appearances on behalf of the team, 73 appearances in the Coppa Italia, 113 European matches, 5 Intercontinental Cup and 6 Italian Super Cup matches. In these competitions, Costa Kuta has won 7 league championships, 4 Champions Cups, 2 Toyota Cups, 4 European Super Cups, 1 Italian Cup and 5 Italian Super Cups.

In the career ranking, after his 41st birthday, Costakuta will surpass Virjoward, leaving only two goalkeepers, Balota and Zoff.

The veteran said at the beginning of this season that he would choose to leave the football field on June 30 next year, which is true this time.

In 20 years, Costa Cuta did not regret that he had been loyal to Milan and stayed at the San Siro Stadium, and did not choose to go to another country to experience the feeling of playing football in a foreign country.

There are many guards in Milan, with Baresi in front. Now it is him, Costacuta is another great Milanese, and he will be Maldini or someone else in the future.

Costa Kuta has not previously said any exact where to go after retirement and may choose to be a coach, but because of his family, he may give up this choice. He will have more time to spend with his family, or he will do some general management work like Blateida.

Like Albertini, Costacuta chose an official game as a farewell match, saying goodbye to the club he had played for for 20 years and the green field where he had fought for 20 years. When he walked on the court, all the Milan fans collectively stood up and applauded, shouted his name, saying to him Bless you and say "good all the way" to this veteran in a red and black robe who has been fighting for more than 20 years.

As an old minister who has played for Milan for 20 years, Costacuta should have enjoyed a higher standard of treatment. Although in the Milan team, Costacuta does not have the leadership temperament of Baresi and the eternal charm of Maltini, he is loyal enough to make him worthy of rice. Lan's flag.

If Milan has secured a place in the Champions League in advance, Costakuta should have started this game.

Costa Cuta said before the game: "Compared with me personally, the interests of the club are the most important."

There are still 20 minutes left in the game. At this time, Costakuta's appearance basically represents Ancelotti giving up the game. The next time should be a memory, but no one expected that when Costa Kuta replaced Maldini, who had been out of his strength, he would shout such a sentence.

The captain's armband is worn on his shoulder, which represents a responsibility: "Let's cheer up. We haven't lost yet. The game is not over yet."

Some elderly fans looked at old Billy on the court and couldn't help but wet their eyes.

"ForzaMILAN!"

Such a roar resounded to every corner of the San Siro stands, which also awakened the fighting spirit of the Milan players on the court.

Maldini stood on the sidelines and looked at the old man Costa Cuta on the court. This good man who is usually silent and kind to people actually has such a side.

Maldini suddenly had a strange idea: Maybe Billy is more suitable to be the captain of Milan after Baresi!

The game is still going on, and Milan is also constantly launching attacks. Although Costa Cuta is old and his body can seriously deteriorate, he plays a high level in 20 minutes to cope with the 20-minute game. It is not difficult for a Serie A evergreen tree and a living fossil like him.

Milan's crazy counterattack also caught Fiorenion off guard. Fortunately, Albertini was in the midfield, which stabilized the position in time.

Three old friends are their masters on the court. In such a scene, the Milan fans at the scene did not seem to feel any excitement. Once these three were the flags of Milan!

Now Costakuta and Albertini are about to retire. Although Maldini has renewed his contract with the club for a year, how many years can he fight for AC Milan at his age?

Seeing the players coming out of the Milan youth training camp retire one by one, but the reserve force can't keep up at all. Who is the last player entered by the Milan youth training camp for the first team?

Franceco. Keke!

Where is the former Maldini's successor now?

Torino!

And he has only played three times in a season.

Is there really no talent in the Milan youth training camp?

Look at Fiorentina and you will know that Donadale, Abat and Antonini have now become very important players in Fiorentina, but such players can't get any chance in AC Milan.

Young people can't go up, so they can only rely on these old guys. Where is Milan's way out?

Bang!

Digan's shot outside the penalty area was disturbed by Costa Kuta and failed to hit the position and flew directly out of the bottom line.

After resisting AC Milan's counterattack, Florence's offensive gradually rose.
