Chapter 425: Ancient Records (Page 1/1)

On April 7, 2008, a large number of media gathered at San Siro again, and the sidelines were densely packed with cannons and cameras. If they were all replaced with bazookas, it would be enough to blow half of Milan into nothing.

This is the 32nd round of the 07-08 Serie A season, and Milan will face Cagliari, who are currently ranked 14th, a very common opponent today. But today Italy, Germany, even England, China, all the major football media are in San Siro, and they are not here for AC Milan, let alone Cagliari.

The journalist media is so flocking just for a player, for a record.

.

After a record-all-time draw of 18 league matches, AC Milan hosted their first leg opponents in the UEFA Cup quarter-finals, Eredivisie giants PSV Eindhoven, here three days ago.

PSV Eindhoven came from the Champions Cup, where they were pushed to third place in Group G by Inter Milan and Turkey's Ferebahce. After coming to the League Cup, PSV Eindhoven first beat Helsingborg, Sweden in 1/16, and then eliminated Tottenham Hotspur in the English Premier League on penalties in 1/8.

The team has produced some of the most famous names in recent times, such as Romario, Ronaldo, Ruud van Nistelrooy and, of course, Sun Xiang. China's Sun Xiang spent four months on loan at PSV Eindhoven last year, during which time he played a total of five league games, four Champions League games and three reserve team games.

Sun Xiang's data can't be said to be very successful, otherwise he would not have returned to China after the season, and he can't be compared with South Koreans Park Ji-sung and Lee Young-pyo, who also played for three or four seasons in PSV Eindhoven. But in addition to hitchhiking and winning a Eredivisie title, Sun Xiang's four appearances in the Champions League knockout rounds were real games.

Although Li Yi once said that his ball protection was like Henry's, but there was no evidence, but in the 1/8 second leg of the Champions Cup last season, Sun Xiang's ball protection at the Emirates Stadium was obviously more convincing. PSV Eindhoven, who won the first leg 1-0, scored an own goal in the second half to draw 1-1 on aggregate with Arsenal. Based on the real strength comparison between the two sides, extra time is clearly not good for PSV Eindhoven.

Left-back Sun Xiang, who started the game, staged a textbook ball protection in the 85th minute: in the small triangle arc of the right corner flag at the end of Arsenal, Sun Xiang lay on the ground and used his limbs to form an airtight protective shield space, firmly protecting the football under his stomach. Big Heleb pushed, squeezed, kicked, leaned, and pulled behind his back, but he couldn't "pull" the ball out of Sun Xiang's feet, not to mention, and was so slapped by Sun Xiang's big ass that he couldn't stand steadily. Annoyed and angry, Da Heleb simply grabbed his back and gave Sun Xiang a hug.

Mendes crosses from a free-kick and Alex scores with a header! PSV Eindhoven eliminated Arsenal with this goal and reached the quarter-finals of last year's Champions Cup.

However, in the next 1/4 finals, Sun Xiang was teased enough by Pennant, who later let Zhuo Yang scold his face for 90 minutes, and Eindhoven was eliminated by Liverpool 0:4 in two legs.

The reasons why Eindhoven did not give Sun Xiang a 'regular': first, the signing of Sun Xiang did not pull Philips's performance in the Chinese market as originally expected, and the Chinese side is still not interested in broadcasting the Eredivisie, and even Eindhoven's Champions Cup game is not transferred, which is very different from South Korea's treatment of Park Ji-sung and Lee Young-pyo to join Eindhoven; second, Sun Xiang's performance is not enough to make Eindhoven ruthlessly spend a transfer fee of one million in accordance with the contract.

Now Park Ji-sung and Lee Young-pyo are excellent at Manchester United and Tottenham, and Son is said to be playing in Shanghai while contacting the Austrian side.

PSV Eindhoven lost 1-0 to Inter Milan here at the end of last year, and AC Milan was similar this time, with Kaka, who had returned from injury, winning 2-1 with a brace, and Peruvian striker Farfan scored a goal after receiving a header from Covimans.

Zhuo Yang was tepid in the game, there was nothing to brilliant, of course, there were no mistakes, maybe he was saving firepower for the league in a few days.

.

In the 07-08 season, Serie A has been played 31 rounds, and in these 31 rounds, Zhuo Yang has made 29 appearances and scored 33 goals. That's why football media all over the world flock to San Siro today.

AC Milan not only has the 'Dutch Three Musketeers' in its history, but also had a 'Swedish Three' period. In terms of football memory, it belongs to ancient times, and they ushered in the era of AC Milan's first dynasty.

Gunnar Glenn spent four seasons at AC Milan before dying in 1991 at the age of 71. Nils Lidholm was at Milan for 12 years, he was the captain of AC Milan during that period and the greatest player in Swedish history. When Liedholm passed away in Sweden last November at the age of 85, not only AC Milan but the entire Italian football community held a solemn memorial ceremony.

Gunnar Nodal is the greatest striker in AC Milan's history, the team's all-time leading scorer, and even the greatest striker in Serie A. Nodal died of a heart attack in 1995 at the age of 74.

Gunnar Nodal spent eight years at AC Milan, where he was the top scorer in Serie A five times in eight years, and he never scored less than 20 goals in a season in eight years. And his 225 Serie A goals are only lower than Silvio Piola's 274 in 25 seasons.

In the 1949-50 season, Gunnar Nodal scored 35 goals, a single-season record that has stood to this day, 58 years later, and no one has been able to break it.

Except for Nodal himself, it is difficult for future generations to rewrite it, and it is difficult to get close to this record. In 58 years, only Inter Milan's Angelino in 1959 and Fiorentina's Toni reached the 'three-word head' in the season goals, and in other years, twenty goals are enough to dominate the king, and it is not uncommon for more than a dozen to be the top scorer, and Maradona, the king of the ball, became the top scorer of that year with 15 goals in Naples. How difficult it is for Serie A to score more goals.

The big five leagues naturally have their own single-season scoring records, and Serie A's 35 goals is the fewest but also the oldest, and it is considered to be the most difficult to break, because Serie A is too harsh on goalscorers.

In the 04-05 season, Zhuo Yang rewrote Gerd Muller's 30-year-old Bundesliga record of 40 goals with 41 goals, and the following year he improved that record to a daunting 54. Today, this record is the 'hardest to rewrite' because it's unattainable.

Now, Zhuo Yang is standing in front of the Serie A record again.

Scored 33 goals in 29 games, whether Zhuo Yang can rewrite this record is no longer a suspense, in which game to tie and which game to surpass, and how much can the record be fixed in the end, this is the direction pursued by the media and the football world.

AC Milan is happy to see this happen, it is the inheritance of the red and black goalscorer bloodline, in the long history of Serie A, AC Milan have stepped up to the top scorer in 14 seasons, and the man before Kaka is called Shevchenko.

From this match against Cagliari, all eyes will be on Zhuo Yang, you don't know when he will rewrite history, today? Or tomorrow?
