Chapter 29 Become a King in One Step

No one expected that Degan would be in such an excellent state in the first game after his comeback. Generally speaking, no matter how good a player is, it is impossible for a player to recover so quickly after experiencing such a serious injury. An adjustment period is normal.

But they all forgot that Digan is not an ordinary player, let alone a normal person!

Even if you are facing the powerful AC Milan, if you say that AC Milan is strong, no one will object to it. Even if you were tossed to the point of being half-crippled by the phone door incident, and there were repeated mistakes in the summer transfer, you will not fail, and you will die of emaciation. A camel is bigger than a horse, AC Milan's background is still there, and the main frame is still there. When it comes to overall strength, AC Milan is also stronger than Fiorentina.

But the current situation on the court is like this. Fiorentina is playing against AC Milan, and it is very difficult for AC Milan to attack Fiorentina's 30-meter area.

The so-called "experts" sitting in the studio analyzed it for a long time, and finally they could only come to one conclusion-ac Milan's bad luck!

The bad luck of AC Milan is not that they are not strong enough to grasp the opportunity today, but that they were very unlucky to meet a tiger who came out of the cage, and they recuperated for half a year. Now Digan is so hungry for the game, It is not what people can imagine at all. Every minute and every second, Degan tried his best. He wanted to score a goal, and he wished that every shot could shoot through AC Milan's goal.

"AC Milan's biggest mistake this season was selling Degan. Ancelotti should admit his stupidity now. A player like Degan should be the absolute main force in any team, but in AC Milan Ancelotti actually claimed that Digan was not in his plan, I really don't know what his so-called plan looks like, could it be that he is planning to form a space team, and that's why he abandoned the human Digan! "

Before, the public opinion in Milan City was still on Ancelotti's side, but now, seeing Digan's state is so hot, and looking at his two forwards, Oliveira is sleepwalking, Gilardino Caught in the offside trap of Fiorentina, it is almost impossible to climb out. So far in the game, the two forwards have only one shot.

Oliveira's shot from outside the penalty area didn't even make Frey make a save, just rolled out of the baseline visually.

Milan's gun hunting work will not stop because of Ronaldo. Ronaldo can only be regarded as a transitional figure. If AC Milan wants to continue to ensure their status as a giant, they must be young in terms of signings.

For you, the executive chairman of AC Milan, this will be a heavy workload. Just three days ago, Galliani participated in the UEFA Champions League draw in Niang, Switzerland and accepted an interview. Three days later, in The World Club Cup final held in Yokohama between Barcelona and Brazil's international team, the reporter caught Galliani again.

Galliani had nothing to hide.

"We're looking at him, that's Pato," Galliani told the "São Paulo State" before the start of the game. Still looking for a good striker."

Galliani also talked about AC Milan's original plan in the summer. He said: "We originally wanted to introduce Ronaldo in the summer, but the price that Real Madrid asked for is unacceptable to us."

For Pato, Galliani admitted: "We are examining him and we will see what he can do against Barcelona in the final."

Maybe the later results will make Gandini a little disappointed. Due to the strategic arrangement of the whole team, Pato rarely gets the support of his teammates on the forward line. He played Adriano Jr. and scored.

Of course, one game cannot judge a player. For Pato, who is only 17 years old, it is enough to show his potential in the eyes of professionals. This is somewhat similar to Shevchenko back then. Galliani came Ukraine watched Sheva's first game, and the latter played abnormally.

In fact, the 17-year-old Pato, who only started his football career last month, made an amazing appearance, scoring a goal and then providing two wonderful assists against Palmeiras on behalf of the team. , helped the team win 4:1, and then in the first game of the Club World Cup against Al Ahli, he scored another wonderful goal.

Pato has excellent football talent and often has wonderful impromptu performances in the game, such as two assists against Palmeiras, one of which was a wonderful pass after passing several people. In the game against Al Ahly, he also had It is amazing to use the shoulder and chest to bounce the ball three times in a row.

Pato, who has just started his professional career, won a professional contract from the international club, and the liquidated damages reached 16 million euros, but this did not stop AC Milan's interest in him. Galliani's personal inspection is a signal. As Galliani said: "AC Milan's future goals for introducing foreign aid will mainly be French and South American players."

Pato is excellent, but he represents the future of AC Milan. As for now, he was abandoned by AC Milan in the summer.

Looking back at Degan's performance, he alone revitalized the offense of the Fiorentina team. Not only did he play a vital role in the offense, but more importantly, the existence of Degan activated the potential of the Fiorentina team. .

Thiago Silva, who was considered a failure before, played like a superstar in this game. His compatriot Oliveira, also from Brazil, looked like a child in front of him. Completely pocketed.

There is also Motta, who was in an ups and downs before, probably Rijkaard will regret seeing his performance today and dealt him to the Italian at a low price.

Driven by Digan, the Fiorentina team completed a big explosion as a whole. Everyone is attacking and everyone is defending. AC Milan, whose overall strength is obviously superior, now seems at a loss and can only keep turning.

After only 30 minutes of the game, Kaka was already tired and slowed down. The help he received was too little.

In Degan's previous life, this season should have belonged to Kaka. With his outstanding performance, he also won the World Footballer and the Golden Globe at the end of the year.

Kaka looks a little helpless now.

Last season, he played 4-3-1-2 smoothly for a season. In the unfavorable situation this season, Ancelotti began to pursue changes. In addition to 4-3-1-2, the Christmas tree, 4 -3-3, Ancelotti has played, and in this game, the 4-4-1-1 formation is also an ingenious change.

Looking at the starting lineup alone, the configuration of Seedorf, Kaka, Gilardino and Oliveira can also be an "inverted triangle" Christmas tree, but in fact, when the game becomes bigger, everyone can see it. A 4-4-1-1, Seedorf is still on the left, Gattuso and Pirlo are double midfielders in the middle, Oliveira appears on the right more often, Kaka's position Swimming behind Gilardino is a shadow striker, which is about 10 meters forward than he used to be in the 4-3-1-2 formation.

However, it is this short distance of 10 meters that has completely different requirements for Kaka's position. In fact, Kaka's position is more like a second striker, but for him, this is not a particularly suitable and familiar position. s position.

When Kaka scored the most goals, Ancelotti poured cold water on those reporters who suggested that Kaka should play as a striker: "Kaka is not suitable as a striker because he is not good at holding the ball with his back."

In fact, it's not that Kaka is not good at handling the ball with his back, but that his ability to turn around and break through is limited in the small frontcourt. In addition, Kaka's off-the-ball running and interspersed are also quite different from real forwards. difference.

In the frontcourt combination, Kaka almost played the role of being sacrificed. Facts have proved that Kaka is not suitable for forwards. In the past, when he was leading by one goal, Ancelotti would replace a forward and add a midfielder, put Kaka on the front line to fight back, but use him as the leader. There are very few cases where he is a striker. Ancelotti's transformation is definitely not a success for Kaka himself.

But Ancelotti also has his own reasons for making such a choice. Facing Fiorentina away, AC Milan needs to strengthen the thickness of the midfield. 4-3-1-2 is of course the formation that AC Milan is used to, but the midfield usually only has 3 Personal defense, against Fiorentina's 4-3-1-2 formation, the number and thickness of the midfielder are not enough.

This is actually consistent with Lippi's 4-5-1 thinking when he played against the Czech Republic in the World Cup. Kaka played the role of Totti in that game. If you want to play a striker, Ancelotti needs to give up a midfielder.

Sacrificing Kaka and strengthening the overall defense is not a success for Ancelotti's change, but at least Ancelotti is trying a new formation besides 4-3-1-2 , It can be regarded as a poor man who wants to change!

It's a pity that Ancelotti faced the fiery Digan in this game.

"It's Rhodes again! He broke into Milan's penalty area. Dida seemed a little hesitant. He didn't choose to attack at the first time. Nesta was leaning behind Digan. The best central defender in Italy was attacked by Digan. Now, it seems a bit embarrassing, Digan passed the ball, he chose to pass the ball without greed!"

After breaking into the penalty area, although Nesta was squeezed behind by Digan, his shooting angle is now much smaller. In the past, Digan would definitely choose to force his kick to shoot, but after experiencing serious injuries, Digan Gan is also much smarter now. He knows when and what choice to make is the smartest.

Gently flicking the ball horizontally with his right foot, Pacini rushed over, Maldini was struggling to catch up, and Pacini kicked and shot at the first time.

Boom!

Pacini seemed a little impatient, and his shot hit the goal crossbar, and the refraction bounced back.

"Pazzini's shot! Good show! The crossbar saved Milan's life, and Pacini's shot from close at hand hit the crossbar!"

After Pacini finished his shot, he was ready to celebrate, but his excitement was shattered by a loud roar. His arms that were originally raised high turned into hands covering his head in an instant, with a look of embarrassment on his face. confidence.

Nesta's reaction was very fast, and he quickly rushed to Digan's body, ready to make a rescue, but when he jumped up, he suddenly found a huge force behind him, which made him unable to jump up at all.

Digan was right behind Nesta. Seeing that Pacini had missed such a good chance to score, he had no time to be upset. He pressed Nesta, jumped forward, faced the ball with his forehead, and gave a light push.

Now the goal crossbar can't save AC Milan, and the football is firmly in the net.

2:0!

After the goal, Degan once again started his unbridled celebration, rushing all the way to the sidelines, this time he did not provoke Ancelotti again, he is not stupid, knowing that the referee is watching behind him, So he chose to hug Prandelli.

Although Degan didn't come to provoke again, seeing Degan and Prandelli hugging each other tightly, his expression was still not good-looking. When Degan was in AC Milan before, he never enjoyed such treatment.

The Fiorentina fans at the scene went crazy again. They didn't expect to enjoy such a hearty and wonderful performance at the Fragchi Stadium today. Digan's fiery state ignited their desires. The cheers like a tsunami made the ground under his feet tremble uncontrollably.

The AC Milan players immediately surrounded the referee, protested loudly, and signaled Digan to push Nesta before scoring.

"Foul! He fouled! This ball can't be counted!"

"This goal doesn't exist!"

Italian players like to complain to the referee, this is a habit, but like today, the scene of besieging the referee is really rare, it can be seen that the players of AC Milan are also anxious now.

They now need a victory to save the team's decline. Although in the Champions League, AC Milan is in a good condition. With Kaka's outstanding performance, the group has successfully qualified, but in the league, their situation can only be used. Miserable to describe.

Especially seeing the rivals Inter Milan in the same city, winning consecutive battles and maintaining an undefeated record until now, the self-esteem of AC Milan was severely stimulated.

In this scene against Fiorentina, there was no hatred between the two sides before, but because of the relationship between some players, this game has attracted much attention. In the past, AC Milan's attitude towards Fiorentina was completely overlooking, but now, even in the away game, It is also difficult for them to accept being led by two goals.

But the referee obviously didn't want to take care of AC Milan's emotions. Because of the phone door incident, all referees will be extra strict when they enforce Milan games. After all, no one wants to be involved with the shady scene.

The goal is valid!

Although the AC Milan players were not reconciled, seeing that the referee had already made a choice, they had no choice but to accept it.

For the remainder of the first half, Fiorentina still dominated the field, and AC Milan's morale was obviously hit.

In the end, in the first half of the game, Fiorentina entered the intermission with a two-goal lead.

When Degan left the field, all the Fiorentina fans stood up and gave him applause. Some fans even shouted loudly: "King! King!"

A player who only played half a game for the team can actually enjoy such treatment. Degan is also unprecedented, and there will be no one in the future.

In the locker room, Ancelotti was losing his temper. Before the first half of the game was over, he left early, sat in the locker room, calmed down his chaotic brain, and wanted to find a solution to the problem. There is a way, but unfortunately, all he can do is to get angry one by one like now!

Probably Ancelotti wanted to use this method to stimulate the fighting spirit of the players, but looking at the dejected looks of the players, it was obvious that the effect was not obvious.

"Are you already planning to accept a defeat?"

The eyes of the players are a little emotional, and no one wants to admit defeat, but what they need most now is Ancelotti to give a solution to the problem.

Everyone knows how to hijack AC Milan's offensive, as long as they can defend Digan, that's all. But who can defend and control Digan? Does AC Milan have such a person now?

Nesta is the world's number one central defender. His experience and skills are still there, but as he grows older and suffers from constant injuries, when he confronts Digan, he suffers too much physically. As far as he wants a reasonable collision, coupled with the advantage of speed, Nesta can do nothing.

Not to mention Maldini, he is a great player, but greatness cannot be eaten, and using Maldini to defend Digan is tantamount to courting death.

Gattuso is good, but if Gattuso is pulled back to the backcourt defense, AC Milan's defense in the center will be empty. Montolivo, Albertini, Motta and Ledesma all have a heavy shot.

what to do?

Ancelotti doesn't know either!

Ancelotti, who is a big boss, doesn't know what to do, and the players are even more at a loss. They want to win the game. This determination is unquestionable, but how to win and what to do next, they have no idea at all.

In the locker room of AC Milan, the atmosphere is constantly freezing, freezing, freezing!

Kaka looked at his teammates around him, and could only sigh in his heart: "If Degan is still here, the situation may be completely different!"

Kaka is very good, but he can't play the role of savior in every game. Every game relies on one person's ability to lead the team to victory!

As for the others, they are even more at a loss!
