Chapter 98 Dispute

Chapter 98 Dispute

"We continued to defend in the second half. Degan was at the front to contain Bayern Munich's defense. Ivan, Rui, you two must pay attention to the protection of the defense. Serginho and Simic, don't press easily. Crossing the center line~~~~~~~"

Although Ancelotti is in the ball prison, the time of this imprisonment does not include the halftime break. As soon as the first half ended, Ancelotti returned to the locker room, seize this time, and arrange the tactics for the second half.

However, it is still a conservative style of play. It can be seen that Ancelotti intends to keep the leading advantage of this goal, but according to what he said, AC Milan actually has to hide in its own half in the second half and get beaten.

Both full-backs are not allowed to press the half-court, so is the team going to give up attacking completely?

Digan has never heard of it. He can win just by being beaten. Could it be that he can use the rebounding power of football to kill Bayern Munich? ?? Stadium Maniac 98

"etc!"

Digan had already held back his anger during the first half, but now seeing that Ancelotti had to defend and had to defend for a full forty-five minutes in the second half, he couldn't bear it anymore.

Ancelotti was talking gibberish and having a great time, when he was suddenly interrupted by Digan. It felt like a pregnant woman giving birth to a baby, and even her little butt was exposed, but she was interrupted by The doctor who delivered the baby told me that what came out was just a lump of human-shaped stool.

With a gloomy face, he turned his head and glanced at Digan: "What's your opinion!?"

Ancelotti and Degan rarely communicate with each other, let alone discuss tactics in the locker room. After the conversation with Galliani, although he chose to compromise, he still didn't look good towards Degan. In his opinion, Degan had better be quiet, don't say a word, don't Asking for trouble, obediently playing the role of an invisible man, he can also pretend that Digan doesn't exist.

Degan ignored Ancelotti's expression: "You mean we can only defend, we can't overwhelm the half court, let those Germans attack our goal, ha! I have never heard of pure defense We will be able to win! And I don't think those Germans are so strong that we don't even have the courage to attack!"

Ancelotti was choked by Degan, his face turned red, and he held back his anger and said: "What we want now is victory, do you think our current lineup can still compete with Bayern Munich?"

"Why not? If you don't trust your players, why send us guys?"

As Degan said, he was still looking at the faces of his teammates, seeing that no one spoke. Obviously, they were also a little dissatisfied with Ancelotti's conservative tactical style. Build a wall, and dare not even step over the center line.

Especially Inzaghi, a goal lunatic who is eager to score goals not long after his return from injury!

"Bayern's defense is not as strong as we thought. Lucio likes to 'plug in' for assists. Once Bayern loses the ball in the frontcourt, there will be a lot of gaps behind Lucio. And Demichelis, he Today's state is like an amateur player, there is nothing to worry about. This is a hidden danger in Bayern's defense line, and it is also our opportunity. Why can't we seize it! Pure defense will only make us more passive, We have to keep running and fill up! Mr. Coach! Do you think we can replace eleven people today?"

The entire AC Milan team, except for Kaka, Digan, Gattuso, and Simic who are a few physical adults, even Fiori, a goalkeeper who doesn't need to run, is tired and out of breath appealing.

Physical exhaustion is still second, and the real tiredness is still mental!

No one likes to blindly defend. Just defending requires them to maintain absolute mental tension at all times. They need to run non-stop and cover their positions. After kicking like this, a game consumes mental and physical energy, and no one can stand it.

At any rate, Ancelotti has proved himself a famous coach on a big stage. Of course, he also saw that the team's physical fitness did have problems, but even so, so what, AC Milan's lineup is not complete, and it is not Bayern Munich's opponent at all , This idea has formed a fixed pattern in Ancelotti's mind.

But at the moment he was flustered and didn't know how to refute, he just said: "I am the team's head coach! How to play the game, you just need to listen to me!"

Digan smiled mockingly: "Just listen to your nonsense! I'm really sorry, I don't have the habit of courting death, of course you can order other people, and I don't have to! Of course, you can also replace me!"

Replace Digan!

Of course Ancelotti really wanted to, if possible, he even wanted to send Digan directly to the AC Milan U10 youth team to become the king of kids. ?? Stadium Maniac 98

But now can he?

This match against Bayern was a sharp sword hanging over his head, he won! Can cut off the rope on his body, lose! Just cut off his head.

If it was in other teams, of course he could just challenge his authoritative Digan and score in the cold palace without worrying about anything, but in AC Milan, he couldn't do that. He really loves Milan and he wants to be here achieve greater success.

At the end of the intermission, Magath took the lead in making personnel adjustments, but his substitution was somewhat incomprehensible. The teenager Guerrero replaced Ma Kai, and Bayern's frontcourt became a Peruvian combination.

Speaking of it, Ma Kai's performance in the first half was pretty good. Although he missed two good scoring opportunities, his ability to contain the frontcourt is by no means comparable to Guerrero.

Perhaps seeing that AC Milan has made up its mind to defend, he hopes to use Guerrero's speed and technique to break AC Milan's dense defense.

But what Magath took for granted is destined to be impossible to realize!

Less than two minutes into the second half, Bayern launched an attack from the wing. Deisler crossed Guerrero, but Guerrero ran past and was kicked back by Nesta. Serginho took the ball and just It is necessary to drive to the front field with big feet.

"Here! Pass the ball!"

Digan yelled, and he had already pulled to the left. Serginho hesitated for a moment, but still passed the ball.

Degan has had enough of Ancelotti's stubbornness. Since Ancelotti wants to keep it to the end, he is not willing to accompany him. So what without the support of the midfielder, I will do it alone!

Grabbing the ball, Degan turned around and rushed forward along the left. Inzaghi, who was still in the midfield, saw this. Out of the shooter's instinct, he felt that this was an opportunity, so he ignored it. Others, outflanked the past from the middle, Sagnol stepped forward to defend, but Degan directly used his speed to overwhelm him, then kicked a curved ball and passed it to the goal, Lucio made a clearance but was subconsciously shot by Demichelis With a pad of foot, he just kicked the ball down to the center. Inzaghi, who was outflanking in place, naturally couldn't miss such a good opportunity. He blocked the ball with his right foot and AC Milan led 3:1!

After scoring the goal, Inzaghi rushed towards Degan. He scored twice during the game, and he also seemed very excited. Degan also released a rare release, opened his arms, and hugged the excited Inzaghi.

Other teammates also gathered around one after another. Degan was surrounded by people, and he did not forget to shake his fist at Ancelotti in the stands to demonstrate. Ancelotti's face was gloomy. He asked the whole team to defend, but it happened Degan launched a quick counterattack and broke Bayern's goal. Watching Degan waving his fist vigorously was like hitting him in the face.

Magath didn't expect this kind of thing to happen. Originally, he wanted to launch a mad attack in the second half and take AC Milan down in one fell swoop, but now the team is two goals behind.

If Bayern Munich wants to qualify, they must score three goals, but is it that easy?

The Bayern players on the field also felt the crisis. After the game restarted, they immediately pushed up across the board. In the forty-ninth minute, Deisler shot high with his right foot.

In the 51st minute, Schweinsteiger won a free kick. Deisler took it from the left. Pizarro headed 10 meters in front of the goal and was captured by Fiore.

Bayern has no other choice at the moment and must strengthen their offense. Magath replaced Lizarazu with Sauer, hoping to use Sauer's ability to help the team, but the defense is still the biggest hidden danger.

In the 54th minute, Demichelis made a mistake and almost sent another goal. Degan received a pass from Rui Costa and shot slightly wide with his left foot 10 meters in front of the goal.

In the fifty-sixth minute, Schweinsteiger passed the ball, and Pizarro cut into the penalty area from the left and missed the goal.

In the fifty-ninth minute, AC Milan scored another goal. Digan made a direct pass from the right. Bayern's wing defense was useless. Kaka** cut into the penalty area and scored with his right foot from the far corner 9 meters in front of the goal. 4:1 ! ?? Stadium Maniac 98

At this point in the game, there is no possibility for Bayern to qualify. For the rest of the time, Bayern is just fighting for honor.

In the 63rd minute, Nesta brought Guerrero down and was warned by a yellow card. Then Sauer took a free kick from the left and Lucio missed the header 10 meters in front of the goal.

In the 69th minute, Sauer's left corner kick caused confusion. Pizarro turned around 6 meters from the left side of the goal and volleyed from a small angle with his left foot, which was blocked by Fiore bravely.

Afterwards, Bayern kicked the ball from the wing again, and Ballack ferryed the header, Ze. Roberto volleyed with his left foot 11 meters in front of the goal and missed the goal.

In the 71st minute, Sagnol made a pass from the right. Ballack headed the ball to the ground 6 meters in front of the goal. Just as he was about to make a header shot, Fiore hit the ball out of the penalty area.

In the 75th minute, Sauer took a corner kick and Lucio volleyed with his left foot over the crossbar 12 meters in front of the goal.

In the 79th minute, Rui Costa crossed the defense and broke into the penalty area in the middle. Degan was 15 meters in front of the goal, and Kahn blocked the baseline with his right foot.

In the end, AC Milan kept the score of 4:1 to the end, which unexpectedly won a big victory, but Bayern Munich, who vowed before the game to celebrate their promotion to the quarter-finals of the Champions League at San Siro, could only swallow the bitter fruit of defeat.

Although ac milan won, but throughout the second half, milan's strange formation attracted people's attention. In the second half, ac milan stayed in their own half for most of the time, covering their heads to bear the firepower of bayern munich. One offensive player is Deegan.

Degan hardly had a fixed position in the second half. He responded in the middle for a while, pulled to cross from the side for a while, and was at the forefront again for a while.

AC Milan's two goals in the second half came from his two crosses, one on the left and one on the right. It gave the impression that Degan was a free man in the frontcourt.

The so-called free man, or before the 1970 World Cup semi-finals, the German defender Franz Beckenbauer, who is both offensive and defensive and has strong organizational skills, suggested to the coach that he hoped to give himself greater freedom of movement and be able to be flexible at the right time according to the situation on the field. Attack or defend in a timely manner, and organize the offense and defense of the whole team.

His suggestion was adopted by the head coach of the West German team at the time. Beckenbauer had an outstanding performance in that game and personally rushed into the penalty area to score a goal. At this moment, a new term in football history-" "Free Man" was born.

The traditional sweeper is only the team's last line of defense, but the libero often becomes the initiator of the offense. Libero must have a smart mind, be able to read the game as soon as possible, command the whole team, and always be ready to take action to defend when the defense line is breached.

There is no fixed guard object when defending, and it can be flexible and flexible to make up for rescue, so that other players, especially the three defenders, have no worries when marking people.

At the same time, Libero plays the role of organizing the offense. He can see the whole field and wait for an opportunity to insert himself into the front line of offense. According to needs, he is a player in any position in the entire team except the goalkeeper. core.

Libero's activities cover the entire field and are the core of the field. Therefore, players are required to be physically fit, both offensive and defensive, have a good awareness and overall view, have strong organizational skills and rich game experience.

Because it has such high requirements on the overall quality of players, very few people can be qualified for this position. Since Beckenbauer, there is no comparable free man in the world. Although the great Baresi was born during this period, his role is more like a traditional scavenger. It wasn't until the 1990s that the genius Sammer won the European Ballon d'Or as a free agent, and a free agent who could stand shoulder to shoulder with Beckenbauer appeared.

It should be said that the birth process of the Libero is special. It is not entirely a product of the gradual evolution of football tactics, but largely because of the emergence of outstanding players with outstanding abilities and versatility, which triggered a leap in traditional roles. , It embodies the football thought of "one specialty, many abilities" and "people make the best use of their talents".

But there are very few stars like Beckenbauer after all, so there are no free men who can cover the whole field on today's football field, but "free men" are active in every part of the stadium, such as the frontcourt Libero, winger, midfielder.

Degan's position on the court today is like a free man in the frontcourt, and he is a very different kind of free man. When the team attacks, he not only needs him to organize, but even needs him to drive. In general, Degan It's like a person who is out of Milan's overall tactics.

When Ancelotti was interviewed after the game, when he was asked about Degan's question, his face suddenly changed: "That was an agreement between me and him, I will not restrain him anymore, and he is not here anymore. Within my tactical system, he can do whatever he wants, as long as he can score goals and bring victory to the team!"

Ancelotti said this with some elements of anger. Obviously, something happened between the two during the intermission, but the entire Milan team was given a gag order, and the authority of the head coach was questioned by the players. An argument broke out, which is not a good thing to say.

Degan also knows that the conflict between him and Ancelotti is irreconcilable. At the end of the season, one person will definitely leave, but it is impossible for Ancelotti to leave AC Milan right now, and Degan does not want to have a relationship with him The situation is the same, and regarding the changes in AC Milan in the second half, he did not mention the conflict with Ancelotti in the locker room.

"Nothing happened to us, I just thought it was a good day, at half-time, asked for more autonomy in the second half, he respected my opinion, so there were two counter-attacks in the second half. Opportunity is as simple as that!"

It's that simple?

Of course, the reporters will not be naive to believe it. They know that something very important must have happened in the AC Milan locker room during the halftime break.

It's just that if the person involved doesn't say anything, they can't help it!

AC Milan defeated Bayern Munich 4:1 at home, eliminated their opponents with a total score of 7:4, and successfully advanced to the next round. The next game AC Milan will face will be Ligue 1 overlord Lyon.

At the same time, the other two teams in Serie A, Juventus and Inter Milan, also defeated their opponents and advanced to the next round. They will face Arsenal and Villarreal respectively. It's about to repeat itself.

In the UEFA Champions League in 2003, three Serie A teams reached the semi-finals. This time, people have reason to believe that this scene will be repeated this year. Whether it is Lyon, Arsenal or Villarreal, it is obviously not Serie A. Three rivals.

The match against Lyon was still two hours away, Milan's executive "chairman" Galliani vowed: "Our goal this year is to win the European Championship. The gap between Juventus and us in the league is too big. It is not easy to catch up, but we are very confident in the Champions League. Although the team is facing some problems now, I believe in Ancelotti and Milan players. They will never disappoint! "

The UEFA Champions League has advanced to the quarter-finals, and there is another good news. Dida's injury is recovering well, and he is expected to come back early. However, Fiori's performance in this game is extremely eye-catching, especially at the beginning of the game. The shooting of Ballack and Pizarro made him famous in the first battle. Even if Dida returns, it seems that it is not easy to regain the main position from Fiore. up.
