599. Can I touch your trophy?
"Mario, didn't I tell you that I was going to take this free kick?"
Shortly after AC Milan scored the third goal, referee Kupels blew the whistle for the end of the first half.
Ronshit was unceremoniously critical of Balotelli in the tunnel.
But Ba Shen had an innocent smile on his face:
"I know you still can't bear to see me lose your weight and deliberately pass the ball to me, I really thank you!"
Long Shute: "...... Are you playing dumb?! ”
-
"The two sides played out 3-1 in 45 minutes, which is probably the most goals scored in the first half of the Champions League final in recent years, right?"
Zhan Tianjun searched for information in the depths of his memory, and was convinced that he had not made a mistake:
"Only in the first half of the 1961-62 final, Benfica and Real Madrid combined to score five goals, the score was 3-2, and the final result was that Benfica with Eusebio beat Real Madrid with Di Stefano, Gento and Puskas 5-3 ......"
"Hehe, that's too far away."
Zhang Lu shook his head with a smile:
"Modern football is actually more utilitarian than it was more than 50 years ago, and at critical moments like the Champions League final, the vast majority of teams choose to seek stability, and that kind of big battle between the two sides is no longer possible.
In fact, in the first half of this game, Real Madrid and Milan both had a chance, in the form of a free kick, or directly or indirectly to form a goal, which actually shows that there are not many absolute chances in the positional battle, even Lonshit and Ronaldo can only use some unconventional ways to rewrite the score......"
"Zhang Zhi hit the nail on the head," Zhan Tianjun echoed, "When it comes to unconventional goals, I can only once again express my admiration for Long Shute's continuous sideflips......"
"Ah, hey, hey."
-
There was a relaxed atmosphere in Milan's dressing rooms.
The 3-1 lead gave the players reason to be happy.
Although the coach poured a lot of chicken soup for the soul before the game, admired the predecessors, and watched the club's honor room, everyone's mind was filled with countless glorious history, as long as the name "AC Milan" was mentioned, they couldn't help but reflexively think of "giants!" Heritage! Trophy! Champion! ”
And after these 45 minutes of play, they believe in the facts in front of them even more:
They are not inferior to Real Madrid!
Isn't the mere galactic battleship struggling under our feet?!
If it is at Bayern Munich, at this time Ronshette will definitely stand up to cool down his teammates.
But today he didn't.
Milan and Bayern Munich are two completely different teams that need more confidence than a reminder from the head.
In the case that the real strength is not as good as the opponent, only by stimulating the enthusiasm of the players can we barely make up for the gap with Real Madrid!
Give Desiglio enough confidence that he can blow up the flanks with Bale.
Give Abate enough confidence and he can compete with Di Maria.
Give Zapata enough confidence that he even dares to defend Cristiano Ronaldo one-on-one!
Captain Ambrosini, who was sitting on the bench, watched his teammates' increasingly excited expressions, and he felt as if he had seen this scene a few years ago.
He wanted to pour a little cold water on his teammates to cool down their hot heads, but he didn't know how to express it.
Until Ronshit came over.
-
He discussed the tactics of the second half with Allegri and other members of the coaching staff for a few minutes before Ronjut arrived, and he even gave his own suggestions for possible substitutions – for Emanuelsen, Poli or Ambrosini for Balotelli and Kaka for defensively, and for De Jong and Mexes for Pazzini and Montolivo for attack.
Then he turned around and went to the area where the players gathered, laughing and stirring up a topic:
"Richie, sorry, I remember...... In that final nine years ago, you touched the championship trophy before the competition? ”
Kaka was slightly stunned, then nodded very clearly.
He didn't know why the teammate had asked him the question out of the blue, but ...... He did touch the trophy at the time of entry.
The 23-year-old Kaka was the youngest newcomer in the AC Milan team at the time, and he failed to control his desire for glory, so much so that he was criticized by the media and fans after the game, "The ignorant newcomer defeated Milan's character......
Long Shute shrugged:
"I'm sorry, guys, I couldn't help but touch it today."
The atmosphere in the locker room suddenly fell silent.
Ambrosini, Kaka, Gattuso and Abbiati are all veterans who have lived through that night, and although no one says it explicitly, for the Milan players, that night is almost a taboo.
But Long Shute laughed without hesitation:
"I have a proposal, I don't know if to say it?"
Balotelli rolled his eyes:
"I said I was going to object...... Did it work? ”
-
In the world of football, Carlo Ancelotti has the impression that he is good at pre-match formation, but he is not at the top level when it comes to commanding, boosting morale and, above all, making substitutions – at least compared to the likes of Alex Ferguson, Jose Mourinho and Lippi.
It is not unreasonable that An Fat is often criticized for "slow adjustment of substitutions", "always one step slower", and "lifeless good old man".
But today he couldn't continue to be "dead" because his team was already two goals down.
How will AC Milan, who are two goals ahead, deal with themselves in the second half?
Ancelotti can imagine it even if she thinks about it with her ass!
All the staff retreated to the 30-meter area, Kaka, Longshute, and Shaarawi came out with three swords when counterattacking!
His Real Madrid ...... Can you break such a dense formation?!
-
"The second half is about to start and the players from both sides are already on the pitch."
Zhan Tianjun just rested for a few minutes, briefly discussed the previous commentary rhythm with the guests, and then returned to work:
"Oh? Real Madrid seems to have made personnel changes, so let's take a look......
That's right, with left wing-back Coentrão replaced by Marcelo and midfielder Khedira replaced by teenager Isco, it was clear that Carlo Ancelotti was ready to step up his attack. ”
"Going straight to half-time is a rare change for Carlo Ancelotti."
Zhang Lu, who has witnessed Carlo Ancelotti's transformation from a top midfielder to a top champion coach in Serie A, should be qualified to say the above sentence:
Compared with Coentrão, Brazilian defender Marcelo is undoubtedly better at attacking, and he is more compatible with Di Maria and Ronaldo on the left side.
Isco, on the other hand, is a player who is not tall, but he has a lot of energy, and his characteristics are both dribbling and passing, which is to solve the problem of no one feeding the strikers with cannonballs......"
After listening to his analysis, Zhan Tianjun raised his doubts:
"But in this way, Real Madrid's defense in the middle after Khedira is bound to be greatly reduced, and Ancelotti is gambling!"
Zhang Lu smiled:
"At this time, what choice does he have but to gamble?"
-
The two commentators were analysing Real Madrid's substitutions, and the players from AC Milan's side also walked out of the tunnel under the leadership of captain Kaka.
The second-half appearance ceremony rarely gives close-up shots, but the director directs the camera to the exit.
Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of millions of spectators, Kaka, who was walking at the front, stopped in front of the pillar where the championship trophy was placed, and then extended his right hand.
"This ......" Zhan Tianjun couldn't help but hesitate, "Kaka once again touched the championship trophy in advance!" ”
As a Liverpool fan, of course, he is familiar with the allusion of "Kaka touches the trophy", so he can't help but use "again"......
But what surprised him was just beginning.
Behind Kaka, Mex, Zapata, Abate, Desiglio, De Jong, Muntari, Shaarawy, Ronshit, and Balotelli ...... AC Milan's players lined up and everyone had a close touch with the trophy.
"The players in Milan ...... It's almost a declaration of early victory! ”
Zhang Lu was also very surprised, as a former professional goalkeeper, he also knew a lot of superstitions and taboos in football......
It's much more serious than a champagne celebration in the locker room!
This is in full view!
In case it is reversed by Real Madrid in the end, there is no place to put the faces of these people!
-
Balotelli, who was walking at the back, even borrowed a mobile phone from the female emcee next to him and took an advance photo of himself and the trophy!
Then Ba Shen looked at the young and beautiful master of ceremonies, and smiled innocently:
"Beauty, I'll add my friends later, and I'll ask you out to make waves after the game!"
Long Shute slapped his thigh:
Don't look at this guy's five big and three thick, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he looks like a silly boy, his talent for picking up girls...... I can't compare to it in my life!
