Chapter 700: Fighting Against Attack
The goal conceded in the opening five minutes disrupted Fiorentina's pre-match deployment, and they now have only one choice at home, and that is to attack. If he can't win the first round of the season on his own turf, it is estimated that Sosa will not be able to give the club a handover.
AC Milan also appropriately shrunk the formation, Zhang Shujie found that Inzaghi's control of the formation in this game is much better than many games last season, maybe after a season of baptism, the rookie coach has also grown a lot, of course, it is also possible that Zhang Shujie's existence makes Inzaghi not have to defend with all his strength, but to be ready to counterattack at any time after defense.
Ilicic's long-range shot from outside the box was saved by Lopes, Antonelli cleared with a big foot, Badelli got the ball outside the box, he distributed it to Tomovic, Tomovic took the ball from the side, looking for Kalinic's high point, Kalinic failed to gain the upper hand in the battle with Yan Tao, and the ball was pushed out by Yan Tao.
Cerci, who retreated in front of the goal, made another header to Baca in front, Baca stopped the ball with his left foot, but it stopped a little wider, and was almost taken away by Fiorentina's Bernardeschi, but fortunately Baca had some physical fitness, withstood Bernardeschi, and passed the ball to Desiglio.
Zhang Shujie ran to the front court, and glanced at Baca more, he had heard a little about this player before, and did not know much, but now he found that the Colombian striker's foot skills were a little rough, and he did not look like a South American player. However, the game only lasted more than ten minutes, and it would be unfair to define Baca so early, at least watch it for a while, and wait until he has more balls to make a decision.
AC Milan launched a counterattack, Desiglio dribbled the ball across the halfway line, the Fiorentina players pressed over, Desiglio handed it to Bertoracci in front, Bertolaci gave Cerci again, Chelsea gave Baca again, this time Baca stopped the ball, but because he was in the middle, the defense was the tightest, he had no chance to break through at all.
"Here, here!" Zhang Shujie shouted. Baca didn't look at people, and knocked the ball along the source of the sound, which was a bit loud, Zhang Shujie accelerated and ran two steps before controlling the ball, and the Fiorentina players were already around.
Júnior, Valero and Badelli surrounded him, Zhang Shujie protected the ball, made a lateral movement, after taking a step, he stepped on the ball with his right foot and pulled it to the back of his body, and then hit the ball with the inside of his foot, the ball rolled from behind him along the sideline to the front, Bonaventura inserted it from behind and caught up with the ball.
"A very wonderful split ball, in the case of three people around, Zhang Shujie calmly pulled and knocked and passed to Bonaventura, from these details it can be seen that the world's top superstar is much better than Fiorentina's players. ”
Zhang Shujie was already running to the penalty area, Bonaventura approached the bottom line with the ball, did not pass directly to the penalty area, passed diagonally to Antonelli, and Antonelli passed Zhang Shujie again. Zhang Shujie leaned on Valero, **** stopped the ball, turned and volleyed with his left foot, and the ball was high above the crossbar.
The two sides battled on the pitch, with almost every attack capable of forming a shot, and in the space of half an hour, the two teams had a total of 14 shots on goal, seven from each side, including three by Zhang Shujie, one by Baka, one by Cerchi, and one each by Bonaventura and Bertoracchi.
For Fiorentina, Kalinic completed four times, Ilicic twice, Bernardeschi and Júnior once each. In terms of shot quality alone, Fiorentina are slightly higher than AC Milan, who hit the woodwork four times compared to just three.
However, after half an hour, the attack of both sides slowed down, and they were all recuperating their strength and waiting for the next attack. Sosa looked at the time, he had been playing for almost 40 minutes, his team was still down 0-1 at home, and the players also got some chances, but they were never able to break through Milan's city. Two of them almost formed a single knife, but they were both destroyed by that Yan Tao's guy.
Sosado paid attention to the Chinese defender, who always seemed to be able to appear where there were holes, and it could be seen that Inzaghi did not give Yan Tao a separate marking task, but seemed to let him move freely in the backline, and his insight was indeed higher than that of all the defenders present. Sosa knew that he was from Bayern, but he didn't understand why Bayern didn't want such an excellent defender? Is it really as rumored that there is a conflict with Guardiola?
Fiorentina's attack came up again, Romagnoli cut off Ilicic's pass, but the second point was not obtained by the AC Milan players, it was still at the feet of the Fiorentina players, Bernardeschi unloaded the ball and shot directly from 25 meters from the goal, Lopes lifted the ball out of the bottom line with one palm and gave Fiorentina a corner. It was Fiorentina's first corner of the game.
The ball drove to the penalty area, Yan Tao's header cleared, pushed the ball far out of the penalty area, Zhang Shujie received the ball, but because the ball was closer to Long Caglia, Zhang Shujie did not get the ball, Long Caglia saw that the AC Milan penalty area personnel had gradually dispersed, so he directly hoisted the ball into the Milan penalty area.
Kalinic fought for the ball in the penalty area, Romagnoli and Antonelli ran past, Kalinic did not stop the ball, he jumped up and headed the ball a little, and the ball was pointed to the middle, Ilicic appeared in the middle and went one-on-one with the goalkeeper.
"Danger! Fiorentina got the best chance of the game!
Ilicic knows that this kind of opportunity is not easy to come by, and he also has the determination to put the ball in the penalty area, however, not to mention whether goalkeeper Lopes agrees or not, he still has to ask Yan Tao's opinion.
At the moment when Ilicic was about to head the goal, Yan Tao rushed out from the side, shook his head with a very difficult backward tilt, and pushed the ball outside the penalty area before Ilicic's header, and De Jong followed up with a kick and kicked it away from the penalty area.
"Yan Tao's clearance is a great achievement, if he hadn't arrived in time, there was a chance that the ball Ilicic would have gone in, too close to the goal, and it was facing the goal. ”
Yan Tao and Ilicic fell in the penalty area, Ilicic thought that Yan Tao rushed into him when he headed the ball, which should be a penalty, but the referee ignored him.
Lopez pulled Yan Tao up and patted him on the back, thanking him. Romagnoli muttered to Yan Tao, "How can this be a penalty?
Yan Tao said: "Leave him alone, we are attacking now." ”
Inzaghi was also satisfied with Yan Tao's defense, applauded, and then gave Yan Tao a thumbs up.
