Chapter 135 Garras comparable to Adams
Platini was silent. Perhaps the UEFA leader temporarily allowed this absurd hype in order to pay more attention to this focus game. However, The Times insisted that Platini would settle accounts after the post-match autumn.
It is not someone else who really criticizes this. It is precisely the chairman of AC Milan Club, the real boss of AC Milan, and former Italian Prime Minister Berlusconi. In an interview with Effie, he criticized Zhang Yang, believing that Zhang Yang's follow-up is a Milan star. .
AC Milan is a great club. Our players are very self-disciplined and can be role models both on and off the court. Because they know that their every move represents not only themselves, but also the image of the club. This is a club with a history of 108 years!"
"Zhang's behavior seems very inappropriate to me. Of course, he is still young and sometimes too wayward. The important thing is that he will know how to restrain his behavior in the future.
Berlusconi has never commented on a player's behavior so alone recently. Considering the politician's code of conduct, Berlusconi's words are harsh.
The Republic immediately said that although Zhang Yang was very good at scoring goals and liked by fans, Berlusconi also knew that his team needed such a great scorer, but it was obvious that the behavior of this young man with a strong personality had made Berlusconi unhappy. This is not a good sign.
Berlusconi arrives in London, and the owner of AC Milan will watch the game live...
This is the latest report on the online version of Milan Sport about the match between AC Milan and Arsenal. This message is as eye-catching in the sports version as Galas's bet. Because this news has just been published, considering that the action is so fast, the editor is well-intentioned.
The editor's intention of doing this is obvious, so that readers can know the meaning behind the news without reading the text - the flamboyant behavior may annoy Berlusconi.
"The news from Italy, Milan boss Berlusconi came to the Emirates Stadium to watch the game in person. This is the former prime minister's extremely rare way to watch the game in recent years. Of course, in last year's Champions League final, Berlusconi watched him in the stands of the Athens Olympic Stadium. The team picked up the Champions League trophy... Considering Bay's dissatisfaction with Zhang Yang and Galas's somewhat absurd bet, we have every reason to guess that once Zhang Yang's performance in this game is bad, he will face the anger of the boss directly." - According to the Daily Mirror, if Zhang Yang scores a goal, and AC Milan has also won. Bayes may not say much, just as a prank for young people. However, once Zhang Yang can't score, or AC Milan loses, then this 21-year-old young man may face the worst moment after joining AC Milan.
In the words of the Daily Mirror, Zhang Yang was obviously looking for his own smoke.
Zhang Yang threw away the newspaper. This is what he just said from the hotel and got it from the lobby, but it was obvious that someone put it there on purpose.
He knew that the boss Berlusconi came to London to watch the game, and Ancelotti had announced it to the whole team to boost morale. Zhang Yang didn't know what the media said about Berlusconi's criticism of him. However, Galliani, the vice president of the club accompanying the team, talked to him and asked him to restrain his personality and not talk nonsense. Of course, because Galliani has always appreciated Zhang Yang, he knows the young man's temper very well, so he pays more attention to the method of speaking. Zhang Yang also told Galliani that he would pay attention to it in the future. As for whether he would pay attention to it in the future, he didn't know that he had this temper. The nature of the country is easy to change. That makes sense.
It's just that it seems that things are a little serious when it is said in the newspaper.
However, Zhang Yang didn't care too much. The media is suspected of exaggeration. Most importantly, this man is a little conceited. He feels that as long as a player performs well in the team, he is the greatest capital. And he is in good shape now and plays an increasingly important role in the team's offensive system. Zhang Yang is very satisfied with this.
"Zhang, don't worry too much." Maldini thought that Zhang Yang was worried about what was said in the newspaper and comforted him.
"Well, Paul, I'm fine." Zhang Yang said with a smile, saying that this guy took out the electric ** from his bag like a trick, and handed it over to Ronaldo for safekeeping. "When I score, give me this thing." Ronaldo will sit on the bench today. AC Milan adopts a four-two-three-one Christmas tree formation, with only Zhang Yang as a striker starting.
Ronaldo made an OK gesture.
Martini, covering his face, it seems that he is really worried about the boy for nothing.
It's just - looking at the still energetic publicity, Maldini was a little worried. He clearly knows the boss's requirements for the team's players. To be honest, if Maldini is not in the same team as Zhang Yang, he knows that if Zhang Yang makes such an absurd bet with the opponent's players, he will also have a lot of opinions about Zhang Yang. However, now, after getting along with Zhang Yang for a long time, Maldini also knows that although Zhang Yang has a strong personality and sometimes likes to play pranks, but In essence, this is still a good guy, especially the flamboyant professional attitude, which is appreciated by Maldini.
AC Milan's first-eighth Champions League match between AC Milan and Arsenal has attracted the attention of all parties.
Whether it is the increasingly hyped off-court factor or the charm of the two giants themselves, this game is destined to become the classic game of the Champions League this season.
In everyone's expectation, the game came.
London, Arsenal's home Emirates Stadium.
Zhong Dajun looked up at the clear sky and muttered to himself, "This kind of weather is really suitable for working hard!"
Around him, there are also many Chinese reporters. Because of Zhang Yang, there is a trace of sunshine in the domestic recession and everyone's shouting football. The days of these media people who eat football are much better. In the past, not to mention going abroad to watch the game, even applying for funds are like a girl. Can't lift your head.
Now, among other things, as long as it is a Zhang Yang's game, they will definitely enjoy the benefits of watching the ball on the spot. If you ask for leave and say that you can't watch the ball on the spot, the headquarters is not happy.
The game is about to begin. The camera is given to the VIP stands at the Emirates Stadium. The figures of England national team coach Capello and Italian national team coach Donadoni all appeared in the VIP box. In this game, there were many England and Italian internationals.
Zhang Yang is standing on the court, and the game is about to begin.
Opposite him were the players of Arsenal, and he saw Adebayor.
At the beginning, when Zhang Yang emerged in Marseille, Wenger fell in love with Zhang Yang and planned to introduce him. However, because Marseille refused. In addition, Zhang Yang could not get a labor certificate at that time, Wenger hesitated and finally chose to introduce Togo international Adebayor.
It can be said that Adebayo is a public stand-in in the professor's heart.
"The two teams have not had much to do with each other in the past 100 years. Arsenal and AC Milan have only met once in Europe before, and the two teams have no hatred before. To be precise, the English giants and the Italian giants are almost strangers. The quarrel between Garas and Zhang Yang has changed all this. The war between them has caused the confrontation between the two teams. Although this absurd quarrel has been criticized by some people, at this moment, no one can ignore the off-court factors of this game. The two teams have been at peace for the past 100 years. It doesn't mean that they can communicate amicably from now on. In today's game, no matter what the result of the game is, whether Garas wins or Zhang Yang wins, he will not be good at it... The next time the two teams meet again, it will definitely be more popular... Of course, in fact, we all like to see such a charge. A game full of topics. Because it's exciting enough... Because there are too many things to look forward to.
The game has not yet started, and Sky TV's famous commentator Reinkel is conducting routine analysis and outlook for people before the game.
"Hey, Gary." Reinkel's commentary partner is Martin. Taylor said, "What do you think of the war between Zhang and Galas?"
Before Reinkel could speak, there were huge cheers in the stands. This was the appearance of players from both sides.
At this time, the starting list of today's two teams was also displayed on the big screen:
Arsenal (4-4-2): Lehman; Sarnia, Toure (8', Senderos), Gala, Crishy; Ebue, Flamini, Fabregas, Hleb; Eduardo, Adebayo;
AC Milan (4-3-2-1): Karachi; Odo, Nesta, Karadze, Maldini; Gattuso, Ambrosini, Pirlo; Kaka, Seedorf; Zhang Yang;
Zhang Yang and Kaka stood in the middle circle, waiting for the kick-off. Just now, when guessing the coin, Maldini lost to Garras, Arsenal got the pick, and AC Milan got the kick-off.
Guessing that the coin won Maldini, Garas seemed to be very happy. He also waved his arm hard, which made Maldini stunned. Isn't it just guessing the coin?
The live broadcast was broadcasting the names of the visiting team players, and the last one was Zhang Yang's name, which caused a boo from the stands of the Emirates Stadium.
Zhang Yang's contempt for Galas, and then more or less disrespectful to Arsenal, which aroused the strong dissatisfaction of Arsenal fans.
The German referee Merkel, the referee of this game, was watching the referee's action through the headset and the fourth official. Suddenly, the Emirates Stadium gradually quieted down as if it had just boiled a pot of water.
The referee looked down at the watch, and then gave a thumbs up to the fourth official on the sidelines, all 0K. It's time to kick off.
"Du--"
Leinkel and Martin. Taylor was still talking about the most popular topic of the quarrel between Galas and Zhang Yang, and there was a burst of cheer in the stands.
"Well, Martin, let's watch the game first. No matter how lively it is off the court, it's not as intense and exciting as the game." With that, Reinkel smiled, "Haha, I really want to know now whether Zhang Yang can score a goal. If he can't score a goal, what should he do?"
Arsenal is a Premier League giant, and Reinkel is a former England international. Emotionally, he is inclined to Arsenal, and then he is somewhat inclined to Garras, which is reasonable.
The Milan team opened the football. After a simple return, the football reached the foot of Gattuso.
Gattuso did not continue to return, but kicked the football to Pirlo, who was in front of him, and the specific attack was handed over to Pirlo to organize. Pirlo left the field with a serious injury in the match between AC Milan and Juventus, and the 'Milan Brain' rested for three months. This game was actually the first game after Pirlo returned from injury. The first game after his comeback from injury is against a strong enemy like Arsenal. Milan's brain will not be easy today. Of course, this also shows Ancelotti's importance and trust in Pirlo.
Pirlo took the ball and turned around. Facing the Arsenal player who was coming to grab, he passed the football out. This is the requirement of Ancelotti, Arsenal's speed. The strongest Arsenal is actually not their back line or forward line, but the midfielder, which is composed of Fabregas, Hleb, Flamini, and Ebue, to have the ability to organize and stop, and the ability to intercept is not weak. The attack speed is also very fast.
Therefore, in the face of Arsenal's midfield configuration, the tactic assigned by Ancelotti to the team is not to deal too much with the opponent in the midfield in the first half. He let the team pass the midfield quickly without giving the opponent time to pester. Of course, it's not the simple way to directly pass the big foot to find a striker. AC Milan's midfield creativity is also quite horrible. Just look at the names of Pirlo, Kaka and Sidorf in the midfield. The tacit understanding between these three people is very good, and they often kick out the amazing cooperation.
Pirlo passed the football to Sedorf. Seedorf made a breakthrough with the ball. He first shook Ebue and then pretended to continue to carry the ball. After attracting Arsenal's defensive attention on the left side, the Dutch veteran immediately transferred the football foot to Odo on the right side.
Milan's offensive pass is fast and decisive. The overall running position and reception are very skillful, and it is very regular at a glance. Obviously, such cooperation is often practiced in training.
"This kind of pass that suddenly moves from the left to the right is very deep and threatening." Reinkel reminded Arsenal.
"What I'm most looking forward to now is the direct confrontation between Garas and Zhang Yang." Martin. Taylor muttered. After the game began, this was only AC Milan's first attack. Zhang Yang had not touched the ball, and he and Garras had not met directly.
"What you are most looking forward to is the real PK between the two of them." Reinkel joked with his commentary partner.
Martin. Taylor pretended to be surprised, which means that you have guessed it all. There was a burst of laughter at the commentary table.
Odo received the horizontal transfer ball from Sedorf. He broke through with the ball. Clichy came up. Odo stopped quickly. He kicked the ball to Ambrosini, who came to pick it up, and ran forward by himself.
Clichy pounced on Ambrosini again, who immediately passed the ball and the football returned to Odo's feet. AC Milan's right-back looked up at the situation in the penalty area.
Odo's move aroused the vigilance of Arsenal's veteran goalkeeper Lehman.
"Pay attention to his biography!" Arsenal goalkeeper Lehman roared loudly. In the tactical arrangement before the game, Arsenal's head coach Wenger especially told his players to pay attention to the right side of AC Milan. Their full-back Odo's plug-in, compared with Maldini's current old man on the left side, Ordo's on the right side is still very active. The former captain Lazio is not good at passing the ball. He is an excellent assist in Serie A.
In addition, Wenger can be said to be the first person to pay attention to Zhang Yang. The professor has a thorough study of Zhang Yang's technical characteristics. He knows that Zhang Yang is only 181 in height, but his ability to grab points is quite good. Thanks to the young man's accurate sense of the landing point of the ball, he can always take the lead in defense. Guard the front of his defender and check the position in advance. In this way, his attack will be quite threatening. In addition, if Zhang Yang only has a good sense of smell, then his technical characteristics are similar to Inzaghi. Such a player is not the most terrible. What has always surprised Wenger is that the Chinese player Zhang Yang's physical confrontation ability is very good. Although this young man is not that kind of muscular man, he is very strong. Wenger has carefully studied it. Zhang Yang's game video. Before the start of last season, the match between AC Milan and Bayern Munich made Wenger feel very interesting. Zhang Yang and the tall Lucio did not suffer much in the confrontation, and even made Lucio suffer. This made Wenger think deeply.
Therefore, during the tactical arrangements before the game, Wenger reminded the defense to be careful of AC Milan's side cross!
This season, Odo's assists have improved a lot compared with the previous season. To some extent, the flamboyant joining with a good ability to grab points has made Odo even more useful.
So, it seems that Odo is going to pass the ball.
Lehmann did not dare to be careless. He loudly reminded his teammates to make everyone more vigilant.
Odo did pass the ball. But he did not pass it to Zhang Yang, who was enveloping in the middle of the road, and Kaka, who had rushed forward. He kicked the football back. It was passed to Pirlo with the assist.
Pirlo is the brain of AC Milan, and Arsenal are naturally very cautious about this person's attention.
Fabregas came to defend Pirlo. Don't let him pass the ball easily. Pirlo's exquisite pass is AC Milan's offensive weapon, and Arsenal are naturally afraid.
As for Odo, he was also seen by Arsenal's left-backer Sarnia, which did not give him a chance to cooperate with Pirlo.
"Milan's attack soon reached an impasse, and Arsenal's defense is still very stable now." Reinkel said. Garas was in the penalty area, and he went up to defend Zhang Yang. Obviously, as long as Pirlo passed the ball to Zhang Yang, Garas would go up and intercept.
"Oh, oh, oh, we are all looking forward to the confrontation between the two." Martin. Taylor said
However, Pirlo did not pass the high ball directly to Zhang Yang. He paused the ball.
Gattuso ran over from his defensive position. Pirlo saw him in the gap and immediately passed the football to Gattuso who came up to pick him up.
Gattuso did not hesitate. After catching the ball, he passed the ball directly. The target was Sedorf.
Sedoff did not adjust after receiving the football. Without even observing, he directly kicked the football and waited for Pirlo in the middle.
AC Milan's midfielders have been playing together for many years, and their previous cooperation was really tacit.
Hleb was staring at Sedorf just now. Originally, he wanted to come up to force him to turn around and pass back when Sedorf stopped the ball. Unexpectedly, Sedorf passed the football out again without even observing. And the transmission is very accurate...
After Pirlo stopped the football, he couldn't turn around under Flamini's close eye. However, Pirlo didn't have to turn around at all. He hit the football beautifully with his heel.
Kaka received the ball and shot directly!
The football was blocked by Toure and flew to the foot of Ambrosini, who divided the football, inserted Maldini's chest to stop the ball, raised his right foot and made a cross!
Finally, the scene that everyone is looking forward to has come!
The first confrontation between Zhang Yang and Garas in this game is coming!
When they saw Maldini pass the ball into the penalty area, the fans on both sides, the reporters in the media table, and the commentators in the commentary table all opened their eyes and looked at the penalty area!
In front of the door!
There was a head-on confrontation between Zhang Yang and Garas.
Zhang Yang jumped high, and he hit the ball!
However, Garas, who seems to be a cow, proves that he dares to say those big words, and he is by no means a person with a false reputation.
Zhang Yang jumped up. When he reached the football, he felt a huge force hitting him, which made Zhang Yang, who was already in the air, suddenly embarrassed.
Although Zhang Yang hit the ball, under the interference of Galas, there was no threatening attack. His header was higher than the crossbar.
"AC Milan's attack is very beautiful, and their cooperation in the front court is very tacit. In addition, the second attack of the Italian team is very effective, which also reminds Arsenal's defense. This is the first collision between Garas and Zhang Yang. Overall, Garas's defense is reassuring!" Reinkel immediately gave praise to Arsenal captain William. Garas.
After completing this defense, Garas beat his chest and roared domineeringly.
Zhang Yang took a cold look at Garas.
No, Garas did defend him this time. Zhang Yang found that he still underestimated Garras. This French black player is very good, physically strong, and familiar with some small movements. It seems that he still has some skills to be appointed as the captain by the professor.
However, next time, it will not be so easy!
Zhang Yang is getting more and more fighting spirit.
He is the kind of person who will be more brave after being frustrated.
Wenger and his coaching team looked at each other and smiled. The professor felt that his pre-match deployment had worked.
"Not bad." Wenger shook hands with the coaches to celebrate. AC Milan's opening attack was still very threatening, but Arsenal's response at the beginning was very good and not distracted. Garas also showed the domineering spirit that a captain should have.
Well, well, maybe in the professor's opinion, after completing this defense, Galas's chest pounding and roar is domineering, that's it.
Winger remembered the scene where he talked to Garras before the game.
"William, I know you are under a lot of pressure after becoming a captain." Wenger said to Garras. He refers to the media's constant hype about Garas's matching Arsenal captain's armband.
Garas immediately said anxiously, "I don't have any problems." Garas obviously made a mistake. He thought Wenger was going to deprive him of his captain's armband. In fact, in the Arsenal team, there are still people who are also qualified to wear the captain's armband, such as Lyman and Hleb.
Wenger saw that Garas understood what he meant. After being stunned, he had a new idea. He continued, "Well, William, you bet with Zhang. I don't want to interfere. Although I don't like this kind of behavior of my players, what I want to say is that in this game, I hope you are like a man. Fight like that! Shut up all those who criticize you! Shut them up! You have to tell everyone that you are the captain of Arsenal, and even the greatest captain in Arsenal's history. It's like a captain like Adams!" Wenger said seriously.
These words immediately made Garras excited. His legs trembled and he shivered, "Teaching... Coach, can I really do it?"
Seeing Garas's performance, Wenger sighed in his heart. Did he really look away this time? However, he didn't let Garas see his emotions. The professor said with a more serious expression, "William, you have to believe in yourself!" I can't look at people wrong!"
Garas was very moved, "Coach! I won't let you down. Leo men are born captains!"
Wenger, "%......%&%"
Back to the game.
"He did a good job." Wenger's assistant came over and said.
Wenger nodded with a proud expression. Of course, I chose the captain myself.
The assistant laughed. I hope he can be the next Adams!"
Wenger smiled and said nothing. In fact, the professor was also muttering in his heart, "Will he be too stressed if he takes Adams as the target of Garras..."
