The score was now 1-1 and Zhang Shujie equalised for AC Milan just before half-time. Compared with Enrique and the Barcelona players, they must not feel very comfortable, and they saw that they were about to go to halftime, but because of a carelessness, Zhang Shujie seized the opportunity. ”

Chen Hui recorded the goal. This is also Zhang Shujie's fourth goal against Barcelona in three times, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a Barcelona star, and he still has a chance to score in the second half.

The first half of the game was over, the score was temporarily 1:1, the Barcelona players walked to the dressing room with a blank face, and the AC Milan players showed a little smile on their faces from time to time.

Back in the locker room, Inzaghi beckoned everyone to sit down and applauded his disciples, saying, "I am very satisfied with your performance, you can temporarily level the strong Barcelona, but there are still many things I have to say." The backline has to be mindful of defending along the line of the penalty area, especially when Barcelona play the ball wide and their inverted passes can tear apart any defence in the world, and they have to keep up with the good guys. When counterattacking, try to pass through the midfield as quickly as possible, don't stick the ball too much, if you can't break through, find Zhang Shujie as soon as possible, and other players should pay attention to his response and connection. In addition, Yan Tao. ”

Inzaghi mentioned Yan Tao alone: "In the second half, you can attack appropriately, and when you switch from defense to attack, I allow you to play to the front, De Jong, you have to watch more, and be ready to fill in the position." Do you understand everything?"

"Understood. ”

"Very good, the opponent is very strong, one of the strongest opponents we have faced in the last two years. I don't need to be afraid of them, football is round, anything can happen. Okay, everybody, rest well, adjust and get ready for the second half. ”

In Barcelona's dressing room, Enrique's performance towards the players was also good, but he complained a lot about the goal he lost, and he thought it was the absent-mindedness of the players when defending that allowed Zhang Shujie to break through the door.

"I know, you must have thought the first half was almost over, so it was a bit sloppy. But have you forgotten the last time you scored four goals in the Champions League, who was the first to penetrate your city? ”

The players nodded slightly, and Enrique added: "When attacking, spread out to the front, don't be afraid, the two wings should move forward as much as possible." Although they have Zhang Shujie and Yan Tao, our overall strength is stronger than them, so don't be afraid of anything, go ahead! I need to see your goals in the second half. ”

Enrique's tactical approach is based on attack, which is different from Inzaghi's. Inzaghi has always emphasized the defense and counterattack, and it is necessary to take advantage of the emptiness of Barcelona's backfield to play a wave. Both styles of play have their own advantages, and it depends on who can play better in the game.

The second half was about to start, and the players of the two teams also walked out of the players' tunnel one after another, and Inzaghi called out to Zhang Shujie: "Zhang, you wait a minute." ”

Zhang Shujie turned around: "What's the matter, sir?"

"Barcelona will definitely focus on you in the second half, although I don't know what Enrique said specifically to his players in the dressing room, but I can guess that he must be trying to limit your play. ”

Zhang Shujie smiled: "Okay, sir, I understand." ”

Barcelona kicked off first in the second half, and their usual short pass combination was smooth from Suarez's serve, and the AC Milan players did not press too hard. In fact, it is a very good choice to use tight pressing to grab this kind of pass-and-control play, but this style of play is very physically demanding, so Inzaghi did not use it.

When Messi distributed the ball to Rakitic on the wing, he had reached the back of AC Milan 20 meters, and the Milan players at this time did not even touch the ball, Rakitic dribbled towards the middle, moved to the middle with Bertoracci, and the side was empty.

Alves interjected and Desiglio followed him to prevent Rakitic from passing the ball to him. But Rakitic gave the ball to Messi, who kept the ball and picked it up with his left foot again, picking it up to the right, and the ball flew over Desiglio's head and flew to the feet of Alves, who was cutting forward.

This is Barcelona's pass, inadvertently, penetrating the AC Milan defence. Fortunately, Desiglio chased back quickly, jamming Alves's forward route, Alves looked at Busquets who came forward, did not pass, and wanted to force a breakthrough through Desiglio's defense.

Alves' ability is not much to say, it is definitely higher than Desiglio. But that didn't mean he could easily run past Desiglio's defence, Alves smashed the ball from close to the baseline, Desiglio clinged to him, and at the moment he accelerated, Desiglio leaned over and shoveled the ball out of the touchline.

Alves' breakthrough failed. However, as a professional player, Alves has nothing to complain about, and if the two had a different position, he would have defended Desiglio in the same way.

Barcelona got a corner kick at the beginning, Pique came up again, Neymar did not open to the penalty area, to Iniesta on the outside, Iniesta took the ball and turned around, and the ball with his right foot dodged De Jong, De Jong tripped him with his foot, causing him to stagger two steps, but the ball was still at his feet.

Andres Iniesta looked up at the penalty area, curled an inside arc with his right foot, reached the six-yard box, and landed at the back post. Yan Tao competed for the top, the ball fell from the top of his head to his back, Suarez raised his left foot to grab the point to shoot, but did not touch the ball, the ball jumped out of the bottom line from the small penalty area.

"Ouch, Suarez is a pity, but for AC Milan it is dangerous. Andres Iniesta's pass was very good and Suarez was just a little bit close to hooking the ball. From the angle and position analysis, as long as this ball with internal rotation touches, basically Lopes has little hope of saving. ”

Suarez also held his head and sighed, just a little bit closer to giving Barcelona the lead again. But then again, there are a lot of football games, and if every time is just right, then it is possible to score ten or eight goals in a game.

Therefore, Suarez does not have to blame himself too much, the striker is actually like this, and the difference is a common thing.

Enrique waved his hand from the sidelines and said something to his assistant, and from his expression, it was not difficult to guess that he was also a little surprised by that opportunity. Inzaghi, who was in the dugout next door, was glad that if he conceded a goal at the start of the second half, the morale of the players would have been affected as much as it had been at the end of the first half.
