Chapter 372: Milan's counterattack is successful, and it is at the top of the standings!

On March 15, the European continent played a number of European Championship qualifiers. After playing the national team, the players did not have time to rest, and immediately devoted themselves to the club's training, and the national leagues resumed on March 18.

Milan will host Atalanta and will be on a new winning streak after 28 consecutive wins. What's more, they are only one point separating Inter from each other, and if Inter don't play well in this round, they can take advantage of the opportunity to overtake their opponents and climb to the top of the table.

Inter's game is scheduled for 4 p.m., while Milan's game is scheduled for 8 p.m.

Such an arrangement is beneficial to Milan, if Inter unfortunately draw or lose the game, Milan can beat Atalanta in one go, overtake Inter, and stand at the top of the standings.

The Milan players are very tired, but they have the ambition to win this game at the San Siro.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the match between Inter and Ascoli began. Roberto Mancini, who failed to resign, fielded all the main players as Milan were eyeing them from behind.

However, the schedule is too intensive, the players are too tired, and many players are not in shape.

With this game, they played three Serie A games and one Champions League in two weeks, with most of the players playing in the European Championship qualifiers three days earlier. That adds up to a total of five games.

What's more, the defeat to Milan in the last game in Meazza was too much of a blow to Inter, and his players have not yet eased up. In the game, they wasted chances frequently, and as a result, the two sides ended the game 0-0.

After watching the game at home, the Milan players picked up the phone excitedly. Call Ronnie: "Here's our chance!" ”

Ronnie said lightly: "I can't run, tonight's goal task will be handed over to you." ”

Ronnie's faint voice didn't hit Tang Jue, he said excitedly: "No problem, you have to pass me more." ”

As soon as he hung up the phone, Kaka's call came in: "Don, we must win this game tonight!" ”

Tang Jue smiled and said: "That's for sure, this is a great chance to overscore, we won't let the victory slip away!" ”

The Milan players called each other and said they had to win the game tonight. They expressed a strong desire to win. Can this desire overcome fatigue?

……

Half past seven in the evening. Carlo Ancelotti started Tang Jue and Inzaghi, and Andrea Pirlo returned from injury to return to the starting line-up. There is good news, and there is also bad news. During the warm-up. Ambrosini groin strain. Gattuso is not yet healed. Ambrosini was unable to play again due to injury, and Milan's defensive midfielder was short of man. Carlo Ancelotti brought Swiss defender Vogel on the pitch.

After arranging the personnel, Ancelotti said: "Inter got a draw in the afternoon. For us, this is the best news. So, tonight is when we can overtake the points, and tonight is when we get to the top of the table! ”

"Maybe years from now, on a rainy afternoon, you'll be sitting on the balcony with your coffee cup in hand, looking at the scenery outside the house, and reminiscing about the '06-07 season. Reminiscent of how we rushed all the way and moved forward bravely in the case of minus 15 points, slashing down one opponent after another and lifting the Serie A championship trophy. At that time, we will still be enthusiastic and excited. ”

"So, to make that happen, we're going to win this game tonight!"

"Let our blood burn, we will let the banner of victory fly over San Siro!"

Kaka shouted, "Victory is ours!" ”

Maldini nodded and said, "We won't miss this opportunity!" ”

Tang Jue stood up and said loudly: "Twenty-nine consecutive victories belong to us!" ”

The temperature in the Milan dressing room rose sharply, and the fighting spirit burned like a fire, and this raging fire burned physical and mental fatigue to ashes.

……

At eight o'clock, the game started on time, and Milan held high the banner of attack and attacked the Atalanta penalty area amid the shouts of more than 30,000 home fans. Red and black flames burned in every corner of the opposing half. There were fires everywhere, and the Atlanta players turned into firefighters and went everywhere to put out the raging fires.

In the first minute of the opening game, Pirlo almost broke the opponent's goal with a hanging shot from outside the penalty area!

In the third minute, Tang Jue was on the left side of the penalty area, found a shooting opportunity, and shot hard. Atalanta goalkeeper struggled to save the ball from the bottom line!

Thirty seconds later, Kaka grabbed Pirlo's corner kick and the ball flew off the crossbar!

The red-black fire grew bigger and bigger, and the Yatra players turned pale, realizing that they were no longer capable of extinguishing the fire. In the fifth minute, Inzaghi successfully countered offside and easily kicked the football into the opponent's goal!

Atalanta lost the gate, Milan led 1-0!

One goal could not satisfy Milan's appetite for a win, and they did not slow down the pace of attack in the ensuing game, continuing to attack the opposition goal.

In the seventh minute, Kaka took a long shot from outside the penalty area, and the ball was deflected!

Inzaghi's goal seemed to open a gap, and the Atalanta players had problems in their psychological defence. In the ninth minute, Tang Jue broke through and was tripped in the penalty area by the opposing defender, penalty kick, red card. Pirlo did it overnight!

Milan 2-0!

Within ten minutes of the game, Milan had already led by two goals, and the morale of the Atalanta players had dropped to the lowest point.

'San Siro has never taken three points this season and it was the same tonight.' With this belief, the Milan players continued to put pressure on the Yatra goal.

In the 25th minute, Tang Jue broke through successfully on the left side, broke into the penalty area strongly, and shot successfully low, Milan 3-0!

In the stands, the Milan fans let out loud cheers.

Tonight, it's time to overtake the points!

Tonight, they are finally at the top of the Serie A standings!

The psychological defense of the Atalanta players completely collapsed. In the thirty-seven minutes of the first half, Tang Jue broke through to the opponent's penalty area again. Atalanta central defender De Asentis had no choice but to put Tang Jue down, penalty kick, red card!

Pirlo stood in front of the penalty spot for the second time. The referee blew the whistle and Pirlo scored twice to kick the ball into the goal. Milan took a 4-0 lead.

After returning from injury, he scored a brace, this feeling was too wonderful, and after Pirlo scored, he hugged Tang Jue tightly.

With a four-0 lead in the first half, Ancelotti began to make substitutions in the second half, with Tang Jue, Kaka and Pirlo coming off one after another. Ronnie was still sitting on the bench, but there was no dissatisfaction on his face. There were too many games during this time. He needs to rest.

Fifteenth minute of the second half. Inzaghi scored another goal to give Milan a 5-0 lead. With a wave of Ancelotti's hand, the Milan players retreated to their own half, and five goals were enough. For the rest of the game. Neither side changed the score. Milan won 5-0. Victory over Atalanta.

Twenty-nine wins in a row!

Milan overtook Inter by one point and stood at the top of the standings!

From being behind by fifteen points, to leading by one point. After the game. Speaking at a press conference, Carlo Ancelotti proudly said: "We are finally at the top of the table and we are the closest to the title. ”

"My players have a great win and we've extended our winning streak to twenty-nine!"

Ancelotti was so happy that he abandoned his usual composure and said: "Now the initiative is in our hands, there are still nine rounds left in Serie A, and we will not let the championship slip away!" ”

"We're going to create a new miracle!"

"No one can stop us from winning the championship!"

That night, the media interviewed Mancini and asked: "What do you think of the current situation?" ”

Mancini said: "We missed a lot of chances this afternoon and Milan took them. However, with nine rounds left in the race, anything can happen. Milan can't win a season, no one in this world has done it, and we still have a chance. ”

"We will not give up, we will fight until the last game, the last minute, the last second!"

The next day, the major European media praised Milan very much.

The headline of the Milan sports newspaper is: Heroic as a cloud, Milan is at the top of the standings!

They commented that the Inter players welcomed Ascoli in exhaustion in the early afternoon match and they did not shake off the defeat they had won a week earlier. In the midst of fatigue and psychological shadows, they missed a lot of chances to score. After the end, the two sides exchanged white papers and shook hands.

Inter were unfortunately held to a draw by Ascoli, which gave Milan the best chance to overtake the points. Milan won 5-0 at the San Siro against Atalanta. Inzaghi and Andrea Pirlo, who returned from injury, scored twice and Don also had a net.

With this big victory, Milan successfully surpassed Inter Milan and stood at the top of the standings. Fifteen points behind to one point over is a miracle in itself. Winning this game, Milan won 29 consecutive victories, which is an unbreakable myth!

Can't even ask for a draw, who else can stop them in Serie A?

Torino Sport commented: At the beginning of the season, no one would have imagined that this would be the case today. When Don made a big deal about winning a double, people thought it was unrealistic. However, a miracle happened. Although it is still too early to say that Milan can win the Serie A title, but now they have surpassed the points, this is a miracle!

Inter went from being chased to being chased and Roberto Mancini said last night that they would not give up. Yes, they can't give up, Inter fans won't allow them to give up, Moratti won't allow them to give up.

The position changes, Inter becomes the chaser, their mentality changes, maybe for Inter it is a relief, they will reawaken the ambition in their hearts. Catch up with Milan in disgrace. Roberto Mancini said last night that Milan could not have won the entire season. Perhaps this statement is true. All Inter have to do now is not make a mistake and then quietly wait for Milan to make a mistake and get back to the top of the table in one fell swoop.

There is a new situation in the competition for the Serie A championship, Milan leads the way, Inter chases!

Bild's worries are even worse: such Milan is too terrifying, Bayern will be severely tested!

The Guardian said: "Milan won against Atalanta and all they have to do now is secure the top spot. The Milan Dynasty is writing its own legend!

The team newspaper said: "In Serie A, no one can beat Milan now, maybe only they can beat themselves! (To be continued......)
