Chapter 198 The morale of Manchester United

The match between Manchester United and AC Milan has attracted worldwide attention, and Chinese fans are looking forward to it.

Many fans stay up late to watch the game.

A fan on the night shift finally ran to a room with a TV after waiting for the patrol boss to leave.

To his surprise, he saw that in the upper right corner of the TV screen, the score column said: 1:0. The home team Manchester United is leading!

He turned his head and looked at his colleague in surprise and found that his colleague was also surprised.

"What's going on? Is Manchester United taking the lead? The game has only started for five minutes!" He muttered.

"I just went to the toilet and peed. When I came back, I saw Manchester United scoring a goal. I don't know how this goal came in." The colleague looked sad and depressed because he missed the goal.

"Manchester United's attack, Cristiano Ronaldo dribbled the ball, he was breaking through, passed, Gattuso did not stop him, Maldini came up, over! It's over! Cristiano Ronaldo has been several people in a row... long-range shot! He was thrown out by Dida... Back point - supplementary shot! Re-shoot! The ball is scored! Another one! Another one! Manchester United leads AC Milan 1-0! This game is completely crazy! Such a start is really unexpected! Manchester United scored two goals in a row at the beginning! AC Milan is in crisis!"

The two fans who stayed up late to watch the ball looked at each other and fell into it. They couldn't understand what happened to AC Milan and Zhang Yang. They didn't seem to have the power to counter Manchester United! I was screwed by my opponent twice at the beginning of the game!

They are not fans of Manchester United or AC Milan. They are fans of publicity. Of course, because of publicity, they are more inclined to AC Milan to win.

There was a booing over the Old Trafford Stadium, and AC Milan's offensive was overwhelming.

If you only look at this scene, many people must think that Manchester United is behind and is under the pressure of AC Milan, so Manchester United fans will boo.

However, this is not the case.

Ancelotti stood on the sidelines, holding his hands, and his face was grim!

After only eight minutes of the game, AC Milan was 0-1-2 behind!

The game was too hard. In the fourth minute of the game, Manchester United scored a goal.

How did this loss of the ball come about? Milanese must think that they are too unlucky!

Scholes made a long shot, and the football hit Odo's back. There was a change of direction. Dida had rushed to the left, but the football flew high into the upper corner of the other side of the goal, which was the intersection of the post and the crossbar, an absolute dead corner.

At the beginning of the game, Scholes helped Manchester United to take the lead.

After conceding the ball, AC Milan made a big attack.

Unexpectedly, just three minutes later, Sisdorf dribbled the ball in the midfield and was robbed by Evra. Manchester United launched a quick counterattack. Cristiano Ronaldo carried the ball at high speed, passed several people in a row, took a long shot, Dida grabbed the ball and got out of the ball, and Rooney made a make-up shot at the back point, hitting the football into the empty goal!

2 to 0!

At this time, when Ancelotti saw Rooney kicking the football into the empty goal, his face became extremely ugly. After only eight minutes of the game, he fell behind by zero to two?!

This makes Ancelotti feel unprepared. So far this season, although AC Milan has had a short low in the season, overall, it is in a good state, especially in the quarter-finals to eliminate Barcelona, which makes the whole team of Ancelotti and AC Milan more confident. .

In the face of Manchester United, the same opponent in the semi-finals last season, Milan is even more confident. Last season, they fought Manchester United's 3-0 battle at home, which has long been regarded as a classic game by Milan Club. So far, they have endless memories. They think that although Manchester United is very strong, Milan was still able to kill Manchester United and reach the finals, just like a year ago.

This is largely because AC Milan has performed very well this season, which has greatly increased the players' self-confidence, as is the coaching staff, including head coach Ancelotti.

This is a very dangerous thing!

Although Ancelotti is also a handsome man, he has always been careful not to be too proud, but this floating mood still affects him unconsciously. It affected the team. What's more frightening is that Ancelotti and his team are not aware of this kind of pride and overconfidence.

In fact, is AC Milan really so powerful?

After the phone gate in 2006, the whole Serie A league, including Juventus, AC Milan, Fiorentina and Lazio, has been substantially weakened.

Well, Juventus was ordered to be relegated, and Juventus Supermarket opened for business. Originally, this was a great opportunity for AC Milan to replenish its vitality. However, because Milaners were still appealing at that time, they did not know whether they could play in the UEFA Champions League, which made them unable to take action on the signing of players for a long time, and they also owed their heat in attracting stars.

In fact, AC Milan's ability to win the Champions League last season has always been regarded as a miracle, a miracle of a person, and a miracle created by Kaka. This Brazilian midfielder led AC Milan all the way with his own strength, and finally won the Big Ear Cup!

A midfielder scored ten goals in the Champions League, and his horror can be seen!

After winning the championship last year, the AC Milan team was immersed in the excitement of being the king of Europe. This champion covered up the aging of AC Milan's lineup and the lack of bench depth.

Last summer, AC Milan introduced Zhang Yang at a price of 43 million euros, which also made his fans ecstatic.

However, fans and the media and even some bricklayers ignored a point. AC Milan's signing last summer, in addition to publicity, there was only one Emerson!

Zhang Yang's introduction is worth it!

However, since he came to Milan, his state has plummeted and he is often injured. His joining has not done much to supplement the AC Milan lineup.

AC Milan did not move in the midfield, especially in the need of a needy central defender and two full-backs.

This is a hidden danger!

AC Milan has been moving forward this season, although there are some troughs, but they are still moving forward, which also covers up these hidden dangers.

However, today's match with Manchester United exposed these hidden dangers of AC Milan.

Scholes' goal, because of the loss of AC Milan's sideline, Nani easily broke through Jankulovsky on the side, and the Czech's reaction and speed obviously could not keep up with the young Portuguese player. After being broken through by Nani, he could only watch Nani pass the ball to the unguarded Scholes in the middle. Scholes shot from a long distance and hit Odo and turned into the net.

This refractive goal is not so much the bad luck of Milan, but in essence, there is something wrong with AC Milan's defense.

As for the second goal, Cristiano Ronaldo's excellent state is one aspect. However, the aging of the AC Milan lineup is the deadliest reason. If Gattuso is over by Cristiano Ronaldo, which shows that Cristiano Ronaldo's extraordinary strength is still two months away. It is an irony in itself that Martini, a 40-year-old veteran, went to defend Cristiano Ronaldo.

After Cristiano Ronaldo's long-range shot was saved by Dida, Rooney, who made up for the shot, easily scored in the empty goal, and Bonera, who should have stared at Rooney, even two meters away from Rooney!

Originally, Ancelotti's thought was that Nesta could start, so it was a deterrent for these young people of Manchester United. However, the old injured Nesta had a problem when warming up, and Ancelotti could only helplessly let the uneasy Bonella start. No, there is something wrong.

This loss of the ball made Ancelotti helpless and angry!

The bad start of zero to two also made him realize that the situation was not good.

Seeing the team's two goals conceded, Ancelotti also realized what the problem was. He knew that the problem was in the back line, and also realized that the aging lineup and insufficient depth of the bench, which he ignored or selectively ignored, broke out.

But now, what can we do if we know the problem?

He can't pray that God will give him a blood-filled resurrection Nesta at this moment, nor can he pray that Maldini is ten years younger.

He still has to rely on these people on the court.

It's not too late to make up for the lost sheep, but I'm afraid I don't even have a chance to make up for the lost sheep now.

Ancelotti stood in the command area next to the court, thinking about the worst result the team might encounter.

The more I think about it, the colder I feel. This old and unreliable defense line is really not good. Maldini's experience is good, but in the face of the young assaults of Cristiano Ronaldo and Nani and Rooney, he can't stand it! I really can't stand it!

Bonera is even more reassuring.

In the face of such a bad start and the current bad situation, Ancelotti must come up with a solution as soon as possible. Otherwise, the situation will only deteriorate further.

The progress of the game. To the surprise of most people, just eight minutes after the start of the game, Manchester United, which played at home, took a two-goal lead. AC Milan looked a little flustered, and even their coach Ancelotti didn't say anything. The players on the court were also hit by these two goals. If the first goal is something unexpected, then the second goal, Cristiano Ronaldo's excellent state, and Rooney's wonderful goal, are a big blow to this Italian giant.

"It seems that AC Milan is in big trouble. If they can't score a goal as soon as possible, the situation will be very bad. Looking at the current situation, it is not impossible for Manchester United to score another goal.

Zhang Yang looked helplessly at the scoreboard on the big screen of Old Trafford Stadium. The whole team was indeed a little stunned. Everyone was still very confident about this game before the game, but no one would have thought of losing the goal at the beginning, or even being scored two goals by the opponent at once!

For the first round of the semi-finals, Zhang Yang and his teammates are very confident and hopeful. The greater the hope, the greater the contrast and the greater the impact in the face of such a bad start.

In addition, many Milan players believe that the current bad situation is not the result of their lack of strength, but because of an accident. They think the first goal that Scholes scored to help Manchester United was an accident.

I think I'm unlucky. I think luck is not on my side.

This emotion affected the whole team, and soon the second ball came, which was a further blow to the whole team.

PS: The third update.

This is the third update yesterday. After the code was finished yesterday, I couldn't upload it. Then I noticed that there was something wrong with the network. After checking, it was that the network fee was insufficient. I forgot to pay this month's network fee...

I got up early this morning and went out to pay the network fee.

All of a sudden, this matter was so painful that I couldn't inform everyone in advance and apologize to everyone.

These are the two chapters yesterday.

There are still three more today.
