Chapter 900: The Second Half of the Decisive Battle
Both teams launched an attack each for the rest of the first half, but neither team scored. Because the two teams did not have too rough fouls, there was not much time to lose, and even stoppage time ended in the first half.
Now the referee blew the whistle and the first half was over, AC Milan and Manchester City were temporarily tied 1-1, with Suso and De Bruyne scoring the goals. Let's take a break and then we'll be ready for the second half of the game. ”
The players on both sides slowly walked out of the court, and Yan Tao ran to Zhang Shujie's side at this time and asked, "How did you just think of using that strange method to get rid of Kompany and Liang Xiran?"
Zhang Shujie smiled: "Didn't you just borrow Liang Xiran's leg to hit a rebound ball?"
"How do I hear you say it's so light? You know, no one has used it in decades. ”
"I used it today. ”
"Hey, I said, you're ......"
"Okay, don't talk so much, save some energy for the second half. Hurry up when you get into the locker room. ”
When the team entered, Inzaghi was already inside. Zhang Shujie casually found a place to sit down, then wiped his sweat and drank half a bottle of mineral water in one go.
Inzaghi saw that everyone was together, so he said: "Let me say two words, first of all, your offensive and defensive performance in the first half was satisfactory to me as a whole, but the goal I think could have been avoided, and you made a mistake in marking people in the penalty area. But I don't blame you, it's not strange to concede goals in a tournament like this, I just want to see the final result, which is to win. In addition, Zhang. ”
Zhang Shujie heard Inzaghi calling him, he stepped forward, Inzaghi looked at him, and said: "You performed well in the first half, but you played too carefully, I don't need you to retreat too much, before we determine the real advantage, you only have one task, to score!"
"Understood, sir!"
Zhang Shujie has not scored yet, although he has scored 15 goals in the Champions League, but he is not the person with the most goals in a single season in the Champions League in history, Real Madrid king Cristiano Ronaldo scored 17 goals in the 2013/2014 season and 16 goals in the 2015/2016 season, which also makes Ronaldo the player with the most goals and the second most goals in a single season in the Champions League, Zhang Shujie can only rank third.
"For the rest, I don't want to say too much either. When you defend, you must pay attention to the protection of the middle and the card position on the side, and you can't easily let them pass the ball in. When defending, the distance between the middle and both sides should not be too far, otherwise there will be gaps at both ends of the big penalty area. We still have to defend well and then counterattack! We must believe in ourselves, my counterattack is the most efficient, as long as we can hit the front 30 meters, we will have a chance! Come, everyone come!"
Inzaghi gathered all the players and staff, and then stretched out their palms down and the backs of their hands up, and the other players stretched out their hands one by one, and everyone was together.
Inzaghi said: "We have reached the final, we are only 45 minutes away from the victory, we will definitely win the final championship!
"Come on!!"
**********************
In the Manchester City dressing room, Guardiola is not as passionate as Inzaghi, he said: "I still say that, Zhang Shujie is the most dangerous person, although he did not score, but AC Milan's goal is directly related to him, according to what I said, keep an eye on him!"
Liang Xiran and Kompany nodded, they knew it was their toughest task in the second half.
"When attacking, take two wings, AC Milan's two fullbacks are the weakness, and you must avoid head-on contact with Yan Tao in the middle, Xu, you have to contain Chen Zihua, he is the biggest barrier to AC Milan's middle defense. ”
Xu Ziyi nodded heavily, in the first half, he and Chen Zihua directly played twice, one win and one loss, and it was tied.
Pep Guardiola talks a bit too much in the dressing room and is desperate to win the Champions League, even more so than Inzaghi. Although he has won Barcelona twice, he later went to Bayern and failed to win the Champions League once in three years, which also makes the outside world think that he is a "system coach", and he quickly fell into mediocrity without the Barcelona system.
So Pep Guardiola has to prove that even without the Barcelona system, he is still a world-class coach, and reaching the Champions League final is not enough, he must win the title. In sports, the only thing that can be remembered is the champion, and it is extremely rare to see a crippled beauty like Baggio in 1994.
Pep Guardiola desperately needs this title, more than anyone else.
***********************
Wang Shihan kept looking at the time in the stands, and said in his mouth: "Why don't you start yet? Isn't the fifteen-minute time up?"
Gu Qingqing also looked at the time and said, "Isn't this only two or three minutes?"
"Really, how do I think the time is up?"
Zhou Ying smiled: "I look at you, I saw that Zhang Shujie hadn't scored yet, and I hope to start the second half quickly." ”
Gu Qingqing also smiled: "What's the hurry? really, it's a full forty-five minutes, and there is a chance." ”
Wang Shihan didn't speak, and glared at the two.
At this time, the players of the two teams just walked out of the players' tunnel, Wang Shihan pointed down, and said, "Look there and look there, I said it was going to start soon." ”
Zhang Shujie and Chen Zihua walked out side by side, the two were talking to each other, Yan Tao and Romagnoli were walking behind, also talking something, and Yan Tao made some movements from time to time.
At this moment, He Wei said: "We saw that the players of both teams have walked out of the tunnel and it looks as if they have not made any substitutions. ”
Xu Yang added: "There should be no substitution, the overall performance in the first half is relatively normal, whether it is Inzaghi or Guardiola, it is unlikely to be changed immediately." ”
In the second half, the two teams exchanged venues, I don't know if the cameraman was to take care of the Chinese fans, the camera was first given to Zhang Shujie, then to Chen Zihua, then Xu Ziyi, Yan Tao, and finally Ma Junqiang and Liang Xiran. All six Chinese players were given a close-up shot.
Xu Yang said with a smile: "These Chinese players are all in a close-up mirror, and the cameraman on the scene probably knows that there are a lot of Chinese fans, so they deliberately took care of them." ”
The second half will be kicked off by AC Milan, and Zhang Shujie has already stood in the center circle, waiting for the referee's whistle. Chen Hui and Yuan Qing in the press gallery exchanged a halftime time, and then they also stopped, silently looking at the field, as well as those fans, who were also quiet for the time being.
The referee looked at the watch, and then a whistle blew, and Zhang Shujie immediately passed the ball back to Chen Zihua, and Chen Zihua passed it to Locatelli.
