Before leaving Milan, Maldini also fulfilled his promise by inviting Yan Jing's team to the city's largest football stadium to watch AC Milan matches.

After coming to the stadium, it was already crowded, the ticket Maldini bought was located in a position with a better view, different from the ball, most of the people were dressed more casually, Maldini pointed to a middle-aged man with a very warm appearance not far away, and said with a smile: "Don't look at him wearing a football shirt, in fact, he is a big man worth more than a billion euros." ”

Before the game started, the fans had already spontaneously started singing the home team's team song, and there was a sea of joy everywhere, Yan Jing said with a smile: "I didn't expect the atmosphere in the stadium to be so strong!"

"Milan is a complex city, there are fashionable celebrities, there are beggars and wanderers, there are billionaires and poor people living in poverty," Maldini said with a smile. However, the stadium is the fairest place, and no matter what kind of person you are, as a fan of the same team, then you have the right to cheer. ”

Su Tao sat between Yan Jing and Vera, and Maldini brought Emily, who had a relationship at the ball, and she was also a big fan of AC Milan, and her face was even pasted with team logo paper, looking full of energy.

Su Tao used to wonder why Silvia didn't appear here, but Maldini revealed a little secret, because Silvia's parents are both loyal fans of AC Milan's rivals Inter Milan, so Silvia will never appear on this occasion.

Ten minutes to go, the game was about to start, the atmosphere in the stadium was getting stronger and stronger, the host began to use a powerful voice to mobilize the emotions of the home fans, and Maldini also let out a roaring cry, like a wild horse that had eaten an aphrodisiac.

Not far away, a tall young man squeezed through the crowd and took the initiative to greet Maldini: "Maldini, long time no see!"

"Simeone, when I see you, my mood becomes particularly bad. Maldini said with a smirk, "Why are you here when you're not an AC fan?"

Simeone said with some smugness: "Last time you lost to me 100,000 euros, do you still seem to be angry?

"Boring!" Maldini said angrily.

Simeone is a die-hard Lazio fan, and the last time the two teams met, Simeone and Maldini bet together, and in the end the match ended in Lazio's victory, so Maldini ended up losing 100,000 euros.

The money wasn't much for Maldini, but it made him extremely angry.

Simone and Maldini, who have known each other since childhood, are the heirs of their respective families, so the two have always been secretly competing.

It wasn't a match between Torino and AC Milan today, but Simeone was on the scene, which left Maldini a little confused.

"Looks like you're scared of losing!" Simeone continued.

"I'll be afraid?" Maldini sneered, today the opposite team is not a strong team, the Crotone team at the bottom of the standings, "Bet on 500,000 euros, 100,000 euros is not interesting." ”

"That's what you want!" Simeone knew that Maldini was trying to win back the money he had lost to him last time.

The two had been communicating in Italian throughout, so Su Tao and the others didn't know what Maldini was talking about. However, his expression did not hide the irritability in his heart, and his relationship with Simeone was not ordinarily bad.

"Lady Emily, I've never heard you like football!" said Simeone with a sudden smile.

Emily was slightly stunned and smiled, "I decided to get into football because of Maldini's influence." ”

Simeone shrugged his shoulders and said, "Then I suggest that if you contact football and support a certain club, you must analyze its strength." Last year AC Milan were only in the middle of the table, while Lazio were in the top five, and in recent years Lazio have been more consistent than AC Milan. So if you want to support the team, you might as well consider Lazio. ”

"I'm from Milan and of course I support AC Milan. Emily said with some displeasure.

"If one day you have a Roman husband, you will fall in love with Lazio even more. Simone winked at Emily and said ambiguously.

Maldini finally figured out why Simeone was here, and the guy was coming for Emily.

If Maldini and Emily get married, the two families will work together even more closely because of their marriage. Simeone has long been interested in Emily, and from his conversation with Emily, the two are no strangers.

Simeone, who backed Crotone's victory, naturally couldn't sit in the home team's stand, and with a few minutes to go, he walked towards the visitors' stand with a sense of humor.

When Simeone was gone, Maldini sighed and said to Emily, "He's after you?"

"Technically, he has a good chance of being my fiancé!" Emily whispered, "but I've been hesitating. ”

With that, she looked at Maldini with sparkling eyes.

Maldini sighed, then squeezed out a smile and said, "Simeone is an extremely despicable fellow, he is not worthy of you. ”

Emily shook her head and smiled bitterly, "Actually, I'm not that good!"

Maldini said seriously, "No, believe me, you are really good enough to tempt any man!"

"Including you?" asked Emily shyly.

"That's right, including me!" Maldini gritted his teeth and said what was really in his heart.

Emily lowered her head, smiled shyly, and placed her palm in Maldini's palm. Maldini seemed to be struck by an electric current, and instantly struck a wit, and then reacted, holding Amy's soft tightly.

At the same time, he confidently set his sights on the pitch and the players began to enter the pitch, Crotone is just a relegation team that is barely on the edge of the game, how can it be compared to AC Milan, who have already strengthened this year.

Maldini observed the players and said to himself in surprise: "Why didn't Sanchez play?"

An hour ago, the starting list was announced, and Maldini usually studied the starting list, but today he was busy receiving Su Taoyan Jing and others, so he forgot about this procedure. He hurriedly glanced at the bench below, where Sanchez sat among several players, his face a little solemn, and he didn't seem to be in a particularly good mood.

Alexis Sanchez is currently AC Milan's most expensive player, with a strong dominance in midfield, and if he doesn't play, he will have a huge impact on AC Milan's quality.

Maldini's face changed slightly, and he finally knew why Simeone dared to bet with him so confidently, he must have been informed that Sanchez would not be able to play this game.

Su Tao saw that Maldini's expression had changed a lot, and he was curious: "What's wrong?"

Maldini shook his head in disbelief and said, "Alas, today's game, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you." Sanchez, the team's midfield engine, is not in the starting line-up, so I'm afraid it will be a bad look. Alexis Sanchez is the lubricant of the team, and without his game, AC Milan's front court is a mess, and there is not much advantage over Crotone. ”

Su Tao smiled and comforted: "The game is more interesting when there is a sense of anticipation, if the result is known a long time ago, wouldn't it be less mysterious?"

Maldini was in a bad mood with a smile on his face, and if the bet failed again, he would only be ridiculed even more when he met Simeone in the future. Because the last time I lost to Simeone in a bet, it has long become a joke in the circle.

Su Tao also knows about football, but the men's football team in China is too bad, ten years ago, it could still be ranked in Asia, but now it is losing and becoming a third-rate team in Asia.

Compared with the men's team, the women's football team has improved its performance level in recent years, but the status is completely different from that of the men's team.

The men's football team has five or six million prizes for any win, while the women's national football team members receive a salary of 1,000 yuan.

Male soccer players can drive luxury cars, but female soccer players have to quit the industry because of their lives.

The abnormal development of Chinese football has damaged the hearts of many fans.

As Maldini judged, AC Milan lost the midfield engine Sanchez, and tried to attack, not only the game was incoherent, frequent mistakes, and even Crotone team played several threatening counterattacks in a row.

Maldini kept regretting, beads of sweat appeared on her tall nose, and as for Yan Jing who seemed to understand it, Su Tao was beside her to help explain.

Yan Jing smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to understand football!"

Su Tao shrugged his shoulders and said, "I know everything, I can do anything!"

Vera wasn't very interested in the game, but kept taking pictures with her phone, she smiled and asked, "Who do you think will win this game?"

Su Tao glanced at Maldini, leaned into Vera's ear, and whispered a few words.

Vera laughed and said, "Do you dare to be louder?"

"Don't dare! This is the home team's fan zone, if any of them can understand Chinese, I won't want to walk out of this stadium alive today." Su Tao shrugged his shoulders and said.

Football games, in fact, are not that complicated, as long as you understand a little bit of the rules of the game, you can see who is strong and who is weak from the situation on the field.

Crotone is a traditional relegation team, stronger defense than attack, in front of the penalty area set up a bucket formation, as long as AC Milan into the 30-meter area, will begin to rush frantically, causing chaos in the attack, in this situation, there must be a player with strong ball control, so that the attack can smoothly enter the heart of the opponent.

However, AC Milan, without Sanchez, seemed to lack a soul, and after a long time of attacking, they began to be impetuous, and the actions of the players became bigger and bigger.

The Crotone players finally found an opportunity to counterattack, a long pass directly from the backfield, hit behind the defenders, the front of the Crotone team is a black and hard African center, not only physically strong, but also extremely fast, a sprint into the penalty area, half a position ahead of the defenders behind him, the goalkeeper was startled, can only attack decisively, was easily shaken by the center, and saw that he was about to face the empty goal, the defender behind him was helpless, a behind-the-back tackle action, and did not reach the football, and the center was directly shoveled to the ground。

The referee whistled, pointed to the penalty position, and at the same time took out a red card from his pocket and sent the defender off the field!

AC Milan, without Alexis Sanchez, were sent off towards the end of the first half, meaning they had to play with 10 men in the second half.
