Chapter 50

Inzaghi is still working hard to prepare for his comeback. AC Milan also ushered in their fifth opponent Treviso in the 2005/2006 Serie A season.

In the previous game, Juventus defeated Chievo, and the gap with AC Milan in the standings was widened to six points. After the start of the new season, Juventus maintained an impressive record of complete victories in the league. pack of heroes.

Juventus won, the point difference was further widened, and Ancelotti also reached the point where he must win. Facing Treviso, AC Milan obviously had no pressure. This newly promoted team had lost all four previous rounds, scoring only 1 goal and conceding 9 goals.

In this game, Ancelotti still deployed a 4-3-1-2 attacking formation, the goalkeeper is still Dida, the right back Stam replaced Cafu as the main force, and the center back Nesta partnered Margaret. Tini, Maldini, who rested in the last round, came back. His Serie A games reached 571 games, breaking the original record held by Zoff. Serginho replaced Caladze as left back. In the midfield, Gattuso, Pirlo, and Seedorf stood in parallel, Kaka stepped forward, and Shevchenko partnered Digan in the striker position. Although Inzaghi went away with the team, Ancelotti only let him familiarize himself with the atmosphere in the team.

Degan appeared in the starting lineup for two consecutive games. In the eyes of the outside world, his future in Milan has gradually become brighter.

Treviso was banned for not meeting the requirements at home. The game was still held in Padua. The dissatisfied Treviso fans put up a slogan: "Instead of this, it is better to play in the second division."

The most speechless thing is that when Degan played, he actually got applause from the fans of the home team. In the last game, he was booed and abused at San Siro.

Whether it is to Degan or to the fans of AC Milan, the reader has to say that it is a satire.

Treviso played 5-3-2 in this game. Obviously, facing AC Milan, they have no confidence to win at all. It is a more realistic goal to keep a draw. The goalkeeper is Zankope , Five defenders Gallento, Vialli, Lorenzi, Cota Fava, Giuliato, Filippini brothers partner Gallo in midfield, Reginaldo and Fava on the front line.

In the second minute of the opening, Pirlo volleyed vigorously with his right foot 25 meters in front of the goal. Goalkeeper Zankope let go. Shevchenko was about to make a supplementary shot, but he was already in an offside position.

In the fourth minute, Maldini made a mistake with Dida, and the Brazilian had to make a clearance with his feet.

In the seventh minute, Pirlo took a free kick and Shevchenko shot high from a small angle on the left.

In the 18th minute, Kaka broke through the middle and was brought down. Shevchenko hit the wall with a free kick with his right foot in front of the goal.

Judging from the beginning of the game, the Milanese made another old mistake. It seemed that they completely forgot about the wing attack and only cared about forcing the ground cooperation in the middle.

Kaka was fouled as soon as he got the ball, and the same was true for Shevchenko and Digan. Treviso wanted to play a defensive counterattack, but AC Milan made many mistakes in the midfield and gave the ball to the home team. On the contrary, Reviso inexplicably gained the upper hand and was almost overwhelmed by Treviso. If it weren't for forwards Reginaldo and Fava who missed good opportunities in a row, coupled with Stam's outstanding performance, AC Milan's I'm afraid the city gate has long since fallen.

When Ancelotti was asked by reporters about the gap with Juventus before the game, he also shot back: "We have nothing to envy them, we will compete with Juventus and Inter Milan until the last moment."

In fact, Ancelotti's team does lack the integrity and stability of Juventus, and in most cases it depends on the individual performance of the stars to solve the problem.

In the subsequent games, Milan's defense continued to appear in danger. In the 19th minute, Filippini sent an overhead ball and Dida made an attack, but Reginaldo didn't seize the opportunity.

In the 22nd minute, Fava protected the ball in the penalty area and knocked back. Gallento made a pass from the right, but Reginaldo missed the ball again, and Stam broke the baseline.

In the 24th minute, Treviso took a free kick and crossed it. Vialli made a low shot with his right foot in front of the goal and was confiscated by Dida.

For a while, Treviso, who should have shrunk his head and begged for light abuse, actually found confidence in AC Milan, and his offense was flourishing. In comparison, AC Milan's defense was precarious.

Faced with such a situation, Digan also seemed helpless. He is not a superman, and it is impossible for him to stage a good show of riding alone to solve the opponent in every game.

The team's midfield lacks protection, and it is difficult to send the ball to his feet. More often than not, he even has to return to the midfield to help defend.

Gattuso is a tough guy, he can run for 90 minutes all over the court, and his defensive ability is also very good, but his shortcoming of slow passing frequency was fully exposed in this game.

And Seedorf, he is like the one in the army, the one who stands aside and sings folk songs, the war has nothing to do with him, what he prefers is to be like an artist, strolling in the field, and occasionally flash.

But relying on that utterly uncertain flash, like winning, is simply unreliable.

Degan also tried to break through, hoping to break the deadlock with his personal ability, but unfortunately his long shot from outside the penalty area was about to go into the goal, but was blocked by Treviso's defender in time. .

This chaotic situation lasted until the 41st minute. AC Milan finally seized an opportunity. With a direct pass to the penalty area, Degan quickly followed up. After wading through Zankope with his right foot, he was thrown down by the opponent just as he was about to shoot.

The referee whistled a penalty kick without hesitation. Degan got up and walked in. When he was in Atlanta, he had never taken a penalty kick. This kind of scoring method without technical content, he simply looked at it. Not eye-catching.

The chief penalty shooter in Milan is Pirlo, but this time, he gave the opportunity to Shevchenko. Degan scored again and again, but Shevchenko has failed to open for several games. Not small, standing in front of the penalty spot, Shevchenko took a deep breath, easily pushed the lower left corner with his right foot and scored, 1:0.

In stoppage time in the first half, Shevchenko reciprocated, and made a strong pass from the right rib. Digan rushed to the top and missed the far post under the pressure of the defender, missing a good opportunity to score.

At the end of halftime, Degan, who thought he would definitely be substituted, was actually left on the field by Ancelotti. It doesn't matter, he is basically playing the role of a free man on the court now, he can do whatever he wants, as long as he doesn't cause trouble, if he doesn't perform well, he will get out of the main lineup.

At the beginning of the second half, Treviso almost equalized the score. Filippini crossed from the right, which made Milan's defense flustered. Stam made a clearance before Fava.

After being criticized, the Dutch tough guy finally broke out. His performance so far in this game is simply impeccable.

Immediately afterwards, Filippini made a pass from the left again, and Milan's defense was not far away. Reginaldo made a strong low shot with his left foot in front of the goal and was confiscated by Dida.

In the forty-eighth minute, Reginaldo responded with a direct pass from the right flank. At 17 meters in front of the goal, he stabbed with his right foot. The ball was touched by Dida, who was on the attack. It seemed to miss the far post. Stam In order to prevent the corner kick from slipping out of the sideline and hurting his thigh, Ancelotti could only replace Stam with Cafu.

In the fifty-eighth minute, Treviso made a cross from the left and was pushed out. Gallento volleyed with his right foot in front of the goal and hit Seedorf.

In the 62nd minute, Giuliato swayed past Gattuso, pushed his right foot and slid out of the far post.

Judging from the period after the start of the second half, AC Milan seemed extremely flustered, and the midfielder could not control the rhythm at all. Although they had an advantage in possession time, this advantage could not be converted into a victory at all.

It wasn't until the 67th minute of the game that AC Milan got the first chance to score in the second half. Gattuso instigated an attack from the center, Digan crossed the ball from the right and made a cross. Kaka stopped the ball with his chest and Gattuso was in front of the goal. At 14 meters, he volleyed with his right foot and sent the ball flying.

In the 70th minute, Milan counterattacked and formed a three-on-three frontcourt. Digan dribbled the ball in the middle to attract two defenders, and Kaka pulled a defender from the left. After defending, he distributed the ball to Shevchenko, who was unmarked on the right, but the Ukrainian nuclear warhead misfired this time, and his vigorous oblique shot in front of the goal slightly missed the far post.

After this attack, Degan found that Gilardino had been called to the sidelines by Ancelotti. Apparently Ancelotti was planning to make a substitution, replacing Shevchenko?

Obviously impossible!

He is destined to be sacrificed!

Although a penalty kick was created, if there is no goal, wouldn't Ancelotti have to catch it again after the game is over.

Fortunately, in the 73rd minute, Degan's chance came. Kaka slanted the far post with his left rib and his right foot. Gattuso headed the ball to the other side. The front flew close to the top and entered the net, 2:0!

After Ancelotti on the sidelines saw Degan's goal, his face changed obviously, and then he patted Gilardino on the shoulder. The decision to substitute will not change.

After celebrating the goal with his teammates, Degan noticed that a substitution sign had been displayed on the sidelines, and it was indeed him who was replaced.

"Don't cause trouble!" Kaka reminded Degan when he left the field. Degan's ability to play the main force for two consecutive games clearly proves that his situation in Milan is showing signs of improvement. Kaka doesn't want Degan And because of the big mouth, the relationship with Ancelotti became more tense.

Digan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm not that boring. Just for such a trivial matter, I'm going to bully a fat man!"

Although Digan said so, his face obviously betrayed his heart, Digan would keep silent, if that was the case, it would be called a strange thing.
