Chapter 541: Caution (Sixth Shift)
Chapter 541 Be careful
As the players from both sides entered the stadium, the televised camera also found Berlusconi in the stands.
The Italian political and business tycoon submitted his resignation last year and left the country's prime minister. After leaving the company, Silvio Berlusconi reappeared in the stands of Meazza and his big-mouth attributes are still very distinct.
Before the game, the former Italian prime minister declared in an interview with the media: "AC Milan will teach this small team from Madrid a lesson at home!" ”
Naturally, this remark caused heated discussions in the Italian media.
It is said that although Atletico Madrid and AC Milan have played each other few times, there is no historical grudge between the two sides.
But there are no old grudges, but there are new grudges.
Atletico Madrid broke AC Milan's unbeaten league record, which naturally made AC Milan have no good impression of Atletico Madrid.
This is especially true for veteran AC Milan fans like Silvio Berlusconi.
Therefore, it is not surprising that he said such a thing.
......
On the Spanish side, Berlusconi's words did not cause much of a stir.
Because when Berlusconi said this, Spain had not yet come out of the storm of "recording gate".
Therefore, Berlusconi's words did not affect Atletico Madrid, it was just AC Milan's own refreshment.
Gao Bo stood in front of the coach's box, and a close-up of him appeared on the television screen.
He had his hands in his trouser pockets, a white shirt, and black suit trousers.
While wearing a suit and leather shoes, he did not put on a tie, and the white shirt was unbuttoned twice, revealing a hint of unruliness.
Italians are no strangers to Gao Bo.
In the previous season, Gao Bo led Luton to Roma and Juventus successively, and Gao Bo's Luton also defeated these two Serie A giants, although it has been almost two years, but the Italian commentators still remember Gao Bo vividly.
The Chinese coach has once again set foot on Apineine soil with his team, but this time he is leading Atletico Madrid. Atletico Madrid is not a small team in Berlusconi's mouth, they are the defending champions of La Liga, and even a super team like Barcelona has repeatedly lost at the feet of Atletico Madrid. So in this game, AC Milan may not underestimate the opponent! ”
The commentator of Sky Italia said from the commentary seat.
"Of course, compared to AC Milan, Atletico Madrid can really only be regarded as a small team!"
Another Italian commentator teased, followed by two commentators laughing.
AC Milan fans who watched the game on TV were also very helpful.
Compared to AC Milan, there are not many teams that dare to call themselves big teams!
This is the pride of the fans of the Italian supergiants.
Their pride didn't last long, though.
Because shortly after the start of the game, the pace of the game was completely controlled by Atletico Madrid.
It can be seen from the image of Ibrahimovic yelling at his teammates that the current AC Milan is completely in a situation of being led by the nose by Atletico Madrid.
Ibrahimovic certainly has reason to be angry, as the arrogant Swede has just been tricked by several players in the Atletico Madrid backline.
Several Atletico Madrid players faced Ibrahimovic's up-and-forth, forming a triangular encirclement and passing the ball to each other, allowing Ibrahimovic to be played in the middle.
And Ibrahimovic clearly has a reason for anger.
Robinho looked lazy compared to his positivity, and the Brazilian didn't seem to have woken up yet, and it was clear that last night's party had taken up too much of his energy.
Atletico Madrid had been firmly in possession for the first five minutes, and they did not take any risk passes, but if the forward line was blocked, they would pass it back and wait until AC Milan's formation opened up and there was a gap before trying to move forward.
Atletico Madrid played unhurriedly.
Allegri was not in a hurry, his hands were like ducks to drive the AC Milan players towards his own half.
Counter-attacking defence was the tone of Allegri's game.
Although Milan have a number of attackers, Allegri believes that AC Milan really can't do as well as Atletico Madrid in terms of the team's attacking integrity.
So, Allegri put the winner on the individual ability of the strikers, especially Ibrahimovic!
So when he saw that Ibrahimovic was in a hurry, he hurriedly seized the opportunity of Ibrahimovic passing by his side and grabbed the Swede by the hand.
"Don't be in a hurry, Zlatan!" Allegri said, "You're going to have a chance!" The game is still long!! ”
Ibrahimovic, who is now in his thirties and has a much more tempered temper, nodded his head and moved towards the space in the middle of the front.
If AC Milan has a chance to break the ball and counter-attack, the football will reach him as soon as possible.
It's a pity that under the dominance of Atletico Madrid, this game looked very dull from the start.
Atletico Madrid were slow to control the ball, and sometimes it looked like they wanted to press up and attack, only to be able to retreat as soon as they encountered a bit of resistance.
Under such slow control of Atletico Madrid, AC Milan fans are not calm.
After all, judging from what is being shown on the pitch now, football is controlled at the feet of Atletico Madrid, and AC Milan basically has no possession.
Berlusconi's brow furrowed.
Obviously, he was also very unhappy with Allegri's conservative style in this game.
He only spoke big a few days ago and belittled Atletico Madrid as a "small team".
Now the small team is firmly in control of the rhythm at the San Siro, like an extremely calm matador, unhurriedly teasing the bull's emotions with his red cloak, and when the bull is angry, it is time for him to deliver the fatal blow.
This gave Berlusconi the feeling that he was being a man-made sword.
Galliani on the side knew very well what his boss was thinking.
"Atletico Madrid only beat Barcelona 5-0 a few weeks ago!!" He reminded from the side.
Although Atletico Madrid is a small team, their strength is not small at all.
Even Barcelona had suffered a heavy defeat at their feet, and Allegri was understandably cautious.
Berlusconi also calmed down a bit. As an influential figure in Italy, he still has this bit of qi cultivation kung fu.
The scene of the game was very dull at one point, with one side making up its mind to defend and counterattack, and the other side was throwing a mouse.
The clash between two teams that were very new to each other began a cautious trial.
