AC Milan, which invested almost 200 million euros, lost!

Overnight, it seemed like the biggest news of the summer. You must know that these players purchased by Li Yonghong can almost form a main lineup, but they still lost to Dortmund. Although Zhang Shujie, Chen Zihua, and Yan Tao did not play, this cannot be used as an excuse, otherwise wouldn't the investment of 200 million euros be wasted?

However, AC Milan's loss is not completely unreasonable, first of all, the team has just been formed, these players who played in this game are very unfamiliar with each other, lack of tacit understanding, and the run-in requires a process, even an old driver to buy a new car has a run-in period, not to mention these new players. So even though Milan lost, the media didn't blame them too much.

Another point is that the results of the warm-up matches are sometimes not taken seriously, and Real Madrid's current record is not good, but can you deny their strength? No. Therefore, Milan fans don't have to take it too seriously, this kind of game should be used to find a feeling for the players, find tacit understanding, familiarize themselves, and wait for the league and the Champions League, and it is not too late to show their skills.

On July 22, AC Milan went to Shenzhen Longgang Universiade Sports Center to compete with Bayern Munich for the second International Champions Cup. Interestingly, the current AC Milan coach Inzaghi is the current Bayern Munich coach Ancelotti's "apprentice", the two worked together in AC Milan, Inzaghi was a member of Anshuai's generals at that time, and at every critical moment, Ancelotti relied on Inzaghi's goals to repeatedly save the day. And now, these two people have "turned friends into enemies".

What's even more interesting is that Inzaghi was Bayern's nemesis when he was a player, and Kahn once said that the person he feared the most in his life was Inzaghi. And Kahn was indeed shadowed by Inzaghi, and even said at one point that he didn't want to see him on the court again.

Now, Inzaghi, who once hated all Bayern fans, has not been able to withstand the pace of time and walked from the field to the coach's seat, but I don't know if his deterrent power can continue to shock Bayern.

Compared to the game on the 18th, AC Milan rotated all the players, and three Chinese players still did not play in this game, in fact, with AC Milan's popularity in China, it is difficult for any team to match even if there are no Chinese players. If Zhang Shujie and the three did not come with the team, just one Inzaghi would have been able to attract countless fans.

In fact, Zhang Shujie really wants to play, he has been at Bayern for three years, scored more than 100 goals, and he also has a few old friends at Bayern who have a good relationship. Later, because of Guardiola, he left Bayern and came to Milan, he did not have any hostility to the Bayern Munich team, and it was Guardiola who had a conflict with him, but now Guardiola is gone.

However, since Inzaghi did not schedule him to start, he also gladly accepted that as the team's number one star, he did not show off in the warm-up games.

Many people think that AC Milan, which is still in the run-in period, cannot withstand Bayern, even if there is "Bayern nemesis" Inzaghi, but in the fourteenth minute of the game, Milan's new signing Kessie pushed in front of the goal, AC Milan led 1:0, and eleven minutes later, Rodriguez assisted the youngster Cutrone with a free kick, and the latter's header expanded the score to 2:0!

In less than half an hour, AC Milan had a two-goal lead, not to mention that Bayern fans thought it was incredible, and even Milan fans did not expect it. But this also ignited the enthusiasm of the Milan fans at the scene, and they shouted "Brother Li don't stop" in the stands, making Li Yonghong on the rostrum smile.

At the end of the first half, Niang, Cutrone, and Bonaventura played a wonderful combination in the frontcourt, and Cutrone shot to change the score to 3:0!

Seeing such a score, some fans said: "Even if Inzaghi becomes the head coach, he can still deter Bayern and deserve to be Bayern's nemesis." ”

In the second half, AC Milan began to make substitutions one after another, with Bonucci, Antonelli, Conte, and Silva coming on one after another, followed by Yan Tao, Chen Zihua, and Zhang Shujie. The appearance of the three of them made the fans in the stands instantly enthusiastic, and many people chanted their names.

Zhang Shujie wore the armband of the Milan captain, and he could only play for a long time, only about 20 minutes, but even so, he still attracted the most Chinese fans. In the 85th minute of the game, substitute Gomez passed the ball on the right side, Calhanoglu stopped the ball on his chest and took two steps horizontally, shot with his right foot outside the penalty area, and the ball flew into the lower left corner, AC Milan led 4:0!

This is also the final score of the game, Zhang Shujie, who only came on in the 72nd minute, did not score, he had one shot, three breakthroughs and one threatening pass, and his performance was decent; Chen Zihua had one shot, two breakthroughs and two threatening passes, and his performance was equally qualified; Yan Tao had one clearance and one steal in the backfield, and he fulfilled his responsibilities in a limited time.

It was also AC Milan's first win in the International Champions League, against the mighty Bayern Munich. It is not difficult to see that AC Milan can have more formations in the new season, especially the wing attack can enrich AC Milan's style of play, and many players have gradually shown their strength, Zhang Shujie and Chen Zihua will not be so tired in the attack.

AC Milan's two International Champions Cup games are over and they will be back in Italy, with Serie A just a month to go, and they must be ready for the start of the new season.

There may be more reinforcements, but before that happens, some players have to be eliminated or there will not be enough places in the first team. It's just that some players themselves don't want to leave, and the club wants to stay, but considering that next year is the World Cup, they have to fight for more playing time to get the weight of the national team, such as Lapadula.

Inzaghi admires this young man very much, although his ability is average, but he is diligent, and it is not impossible to be a green leaf in the front court. It's just that Lapadula's position in the national team is not secure, and the Azzurri could give up on him at any time, and in order to play in next year's World Cup in Russia, he must get enough time at the club, but how much playing time he can get in this Milan team is still in doubt.

So he has to go, he's going to be in the national team, he wants to play in the World Cup, he has to impress Ventura with his performances, and he can't impress the manager in blue on the bench.

Other shirts such as Bacca, Niang and Bertolaci have also been put up for sale. These players have no complaints, and they can't compete for the main force anyway, so it is better to change to a position with a stable position, so when they learned that they were going to be sold by the team, they did not make any public remarks, which was regarded as acquiescence.

The third part of "The Victory Eleven" is over, and the fourth part of "Burning Heroes" will follow! This club game will no longer be the most important, maybe the 2017/2018 season I will write more simply, the key is the World Cup game, which is the main event.
