In the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals, AC Milan played Manchester United away. At this time, the game had reached the sixty-first minute, and the score was still 0:0. But on the field, AC Milan does not have any advantage, probably because of the away road, AC Milan play more conservatively.

Zhang Shujie was absent due to injury in this game, and he played five of the previous eight Champions League games, scoring three goals, which is still a very good result for a 36-year-old veteran. Mbappe's breakthrough up front put a lot of pressure on United, and if it weren't for his bad luck, he would have scored at least two goals.

Yan Tao was the starter in the game, according to Inzaghi's wishes, the thirty-six-year-old Yan Tao should have been used as a substitute for the wonder, but Milan has been injured too many recently, in addition to Zhang Shujie, Xu Ziyi and Chen Zihua are also high hanging free cards.

Yan Tao's desire to attack is very strong, he has not scored so far this season, in previous seasons, the schedule has reached this stage, Yan Tao has scored at least two goals. As the most famous defender with a knife in football, if you don't even score a goal in a season, I'm afraid it's a little unreasonable.

What's more, he is desperate to complete the 100-goal feat in Milan. He doesn't care if he can stay at San Sirodo for a year next season, he just wants to step into the 100-goal hall of AC Milan.

His long-range shot from the edge of the area went just over the crossbar, and although the ball didn't go in, it scared Manchester United, and it was Yan Tao's fourth shot of the game. It's not often that a defender can hit the goal four times in a single game. Even the on-site commentator said: "It seems that Yan Tao is very eager to score a goal." ”

In the 74th minute of the game, AC Milan won a free kick in front, about 30 meters from the goal, diagonally towards the goal, it is unlikely that it will be scored directly, and the cross is the best choice.

Chen Zihua and Xu Ziyi were not there, but Vazquez was present, and he took the free kick. He drove the ball directly to the big penalty area, Yan Tao jumped up in the crowd, smashed the shirt with his forehead, and the ball flew past the goalkeeper and flew into the Manchester United goal.

1:0! AC Milan leads Manchester United at Old Trafford!

Yan Tao was so excited after the goal that he ran to the sidelines and shook his fist at the celebrating Milan fans. This is Yan Tao's 20th goal for AC Milan in the Champions League and his 99th goal for AC Milan in all competitions, just one step away from 100 goals.

It was a crucial goal that not only resulted in a valuable away goal for AC Milan, but also helped them beat Manchester United on the road. Although it was only a 1:0 score, after the second leg arrived at San Siro, AC Milan, with this away goal in hand, will inevitably have a more psychological advantage.

AC Milan in the Champions League have a slight advantage in the promotion situation, but AC Milan in the league does not seem to be so smooth. They currently sit third in the table, five points clear of first-placed Napoli and three points behind second-placed Juventus.

Of course, the season is not over yet, and this difference does not mean that AC Milan has no hope of winning the title. It's just that Napoli is really solid this season and has remained unbeaten so far, and AC Milan and Juventus tried everything to pull Napoli off the top spot, but they didn't succeed.

In the next round of Serie A, AC Milan's opponent is Napoli. Although AC Milan are playing at home, the team is now a bit short of players, and injuries have bothered them a lot, and many players are unavailable.

Napoli also took advantage of Milan's injury-heavy and played attacking football at the San Siro Stadium and took the lead in the sixth minute. And AC Milan has been unable to open up the situation in the absence of a number of main players. Mbappe was taken care of by the other side and could not fully exert his strength. Although he also created a lot of chances, the team's substitute strikers were a little anxious about the opportunities.

Many people began to miss Zhang Shujie, and in the past, at every critical moment, Zhang Shujie would always stand up to save the team. But now, he can't play due to injury, the superstar has had too many injuries in the last two years, which is also related to his age, a 36-year-old veteran, it is impossible for him to be in good health for a season.

Napoli ended the game 1-0 in the first half, and in the second half, AC Milan played a lot of beautiful counter-attacks, but the ball just couldn't go in, and Mbappe and Vazquez's shots were blocked by the goal frame. Inzaghi watched this scene from the sidelines, and his mood can be described as terrible.

Football can be a very bad game, and when a team's goalkeeper and defenders are helpless with a few threatening shots, only to be blocked by the goalframe one after another, then the team's desire to win may be a bit in the air. This kind of thing may sound superstitious, but it's not like it's never happened. It's like the Chinese team in the 2002 South Korea-Japan World Cup, when facing Brazil and Turkey, it was still playing normally, because after hitting the post twice, it inexplicably became unable to organize, attack, or defend.

Although this is not the case with the strength of AC Milan, it will inevitably affect the morale of the players. Sure enough, in the 70th minute of the game, AC Milan made a mistake at the back, and Yan Tao, who played a role in the Champions League three days ago, kicked it when he cleared the siege, failed to kick the ball far away, and kicked it to the feet of the opposing player. Napoli seized this rare opportunity to score 2-0 and AC Milan were two goals down at home.

Seeing the ball lying in his own goal, Yan Tao stood in the penalty area with his hands on his waist, he never imagined that he would make such a low-level mistake. Throughout Yan Tao's life, although he occasionally made mistakes, he rarely caused direct concedion. Even as a central defender, he has only had one own goal in his career over the years, and it was the opponent who hit his leg and bounced into the goal when passing, and it was not caused by Yan Tao taking the initiative to stretch out his foot.

So when was the last time Yan Tao made a mistake in the defensive line and conceded a goal? This was three years ago, when Milan was leading 4-0, the victory was decided, and the whole team was a little lax at that time, so no one blamed Yan Tao. But now it is different, Milan is at a key point in the title race, if this game is lost, the difference between AC Milan and Napoli will reach eight points, and the championship is basically hopeless.

Yan Tao shook his head in distress, Donnarumma and Romagnoli came up to comfort him and patted him on the shoulder, Yan Tao didn't speak, just slowly walked out of the forbidden area, and the whole person's face became not very good.
