Chapter 234: Under the Night of Milan

Real Madrid set up a 352 formation that is not commonly used in today's game, with midfielder Bosque playing two defensive midfielders Makelele and Solari, Liu Han in the central midfielder position, and Guti and Figo on the two wings. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The purpose of such a lineup is actually to fight with Valencia in the midfield, after all, the opponent's strength in the midfield is really outstanding, but what Bosque didn't expect was that Cooper actually let the team play a long pass at the beginning, completely giving up the role of the midfielder, and Karui was in the throat position of Real Madrid's defense, so that Real Madrid could not form effective control at all.

Liu Han was keenly aware of Valencia's intentions, he did not stick to his position, but followed Kalou all the way back to Real Madrid's penalty area to defend, which made Real Madrid gradually stabilize the situation, otherwise Real Madrid would be behind as soon as it started.

Seeing the changes on the field, Bosque was anxious, and he uncharacteristically ran to the sidelines to signal the players to retract the formation appropriately.

After seeing Real Madrid begin to retreat into formation, Valencia calmly played ball control in the midfield, pondering the loopholes of Real Madrid's defense little by little, but Liu Han did not dare to return to the frontcourt, he had to stare at Kalou, this big guy who is 1.95 meters tall and weighs nearly 90 kilograms is not something Hierro or Salgado can defend, of course, Carlos is not to mention, he is not as tall as Kalu when he jumps.

Liu Han's retreat certainly made Real Madrid's defense much more stable, but the team gradually lost its advantage in the midfield, Aimar and Mendieta in tandem to let Valencia control the situation in the midfield, Makelele and Solari are not the kind of very strong midfielders, it is difficult to limit the flexible Aimar and Mendieta.

Since the renovation to host the 90 World Cup, San Siro can accommodate more than 80,000 fans to watch the game, but today there are not many Italians here, but there are many Spaniards, and there are many East Asian faces, Milan as the fashion capital of the world has never lacked tourists, especially tourists from East Asia, these people are almost all fans of Liu Han, although there are many such people who don't even know the basic rules of football, but this does not prevent them from worshipping Liu Han.

In the first box of the San Siro, Real Madrid president Florentino, Valencia president, AC Milan boss Silvio Berlusconi and Inter Milan president Moratti gathered together, and although neither Milan team made it to the final, they still showed up in the box to watch the game as hosts.

"What a good lad, Mr. Perez, do you have any plans to sell him?"

As one of the famous tycoons of European football, Massimo? Moratti asked Florentino very directly, he was originally very interested in Liu Han, and now seeing Liu Han so good, he really wants to include this player in his team.

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Moratti, but he's not for sale." Florentino said triumphantly.

"Haha, I don't think there's going to be a non-sale in football, Florentino, I think you're trying to maximize his value." Although Inter Milan is a mortal enemy, but at this time Berlusconi helped Moratti talk, he is now also interested in Liu Han, the appearance of this Asian player, maybe can bring him more attention from all over the world, Berlusconi, who is dedicated to politics, wants to expand his popularity the most.

"I'm sorry, gentlemen, but he's really not for sale, I even want him to be the new flag of the team, and I'm planning to build a new training ground for his girlfriend in order to keep him."

"Florentino, I've heard that he doesn't necessarily stay in football, you know, he has another identity, maybe one day he's going to go to the NBA, then you're going to lose a lot."

The treacherous Berlusconi even wanted to bury a thorn in Florentino's heart.

"Haha, Mr. Berlusconi, in my opinion, I don't suffer even if Liu goes to the NBA, as long as he is still nominally a member of Real Madrid, he is much more useful than imagined, with him, Real Madrid will at least have hundreds of millions of fans, or maybe billion."

Facing the two Italian football tycoons, Florentino did not hide his intentions, because he knew that he was absolutely confident that Liu Han would be retained.

Back on the field, the two sides of the game entered a stalemate, Real Madrid was unable to effectively organize the attack, but with Liu Han in the backfield, Valencia's attack was repeatedly thwarted.

Kalou ran very depressed, he had a good life in Valencia, relying on his physical fitness, he could abuse most of the La Liga defenders, but today, he met an opponent, Liu Han can blow him up in any way, and Kalou, who was entangled by Liu Han, can't even connect the ball now.

The game went on for almost 20 minutes, and there were not many shots on goal from both sides, and Real Madrid's original lineup that was supposed to fight in midfield became a defensive lineup at this time, while Valencia had the advantage in midfield but could hardly threaten Real Madrid's door.

Aimar kept running in the midfield position, hoping to get rid of the black man next to him, but he found it difficult to do so, the black player of Real Madrid was like kraft candy wrapped around Aimar, and Valencia's playmaking work fell on Mendieta.

Gradually, Real Madrid began to adapt to the rhythm of the game, Figo and Guti also consciously retreated to the midfield, although the two wings lacked the point to launch the attack, but in the midfield, Real Madrid gradually regained control.

In the 27th minute of the game, Real Madrid finally had a good chance to score.

Makelele cut off Aimar's breakthrough in the backfield and passed back to Liu Han, Liu Han did not stop the ball and passed directly to the front, Morientes was knocked to the ground by Ayala behind him when he was scrambling for the landing point, and Real Madrid won an indirect free kick about 28 meters from the goal.

Liu Han ran all the way to the front, and in this game, the set-piece in the front court will be one of the important weapons of Real Madrid.

Because it was an indirect free kick, Liu Han, Figo and Guti all stood in front of the ball, which brought certain difficulties to Valencia's defense, because all three of them had good free kick skills.

When the whistle blew, Figo flicked the ball lightly, and Guti suddenly ran towards the ball, but when he was close to the ball, he knocked the ball with his heel to Liu Han who was not far away, Liu Han took advantage of the momentum of the football to shoot angrily, and the ball barely had any spin after flying out.

The football flew straight to the gate of Valencia like a cannonball, and Canizares was very agile to pounce, but Liu Han's kick was really fast, so fast that when Canizares pounced, the ball had already flown to the upper left corner of the goal, and Canizares's save was only a burst of air.

Valencia dominated the field after the opening, but it was Real Madrid who scored first, and Liu Han once again made Valencia fans hold their heads with a free kick. (To be continued.) )
