Chapter 416: Li Tie's Role
"Rome, Rome, Rome!
The soul of the ancient city is immortal,
We love you.
Thousands of sincere hearts will walk with you.
Rome, Rome, Rome!
We sang in unison,
Singing grows with you.
Merge into the ocean of songs to create new glory.
Rome, beautiful Rome!
The flag shines brightly.
Shining golden on fire,
A red glow of blood swelled.
Rome, our Rome!
Never disappoint.
The mission is always on the shoulders,
Pursue victory and glory!
Rome, Rome, Rome!
The soul of the ancient city is renewed,
We love you.
Thousands of sincere hearts will always accompany you forward! β
Perhaps it was Ou Chuliang's save that provoked the fans to compete, and the Roma fans began to wave the red and white flags in their hands and sing the team anthem at some point.
In this artsy ancient capital, elegant Italian songs resounded all over the world.
Roma's anthem is not as passionate as Bayern's, nor is it as light as Manchester United's, nor is it as Showa as Showa as Barcelona's.
"Rome, Rome, Rome!"
Every time this line was sung, the Roma fans in the stadium would shout in unison.
The sound of the majestic echoes in the Olympic Stadium and endures. Even some Chinese fans couldn't help but get excited and hummed along.
"The Romans are a little impatient, but they need more patience in the face of Ocullian!"
"It's like you're one step away from scoring a goal every time, but it's a thousand miles away. Milan exudes Chinese flair everywhere this season, Milan have not conceded a goal in eight games in the new year, and no Serie A team today dares to say that they will win easily against Milan. β
At present, Ou Chuliang's clean sheet record has been maintained for eight games, which is infinitely close to the record of teammate veteran Rossi. Presumably, all Chinese fans are with me at this moment, expecting him to write an oriental myth. No matter what the result of today's game is, Ou Chuliang will be the best footballer in our hearts! Huang Jianxiang sat in the live broadcast room, watching Ou Chuliang kick the ball to the midfield, his voice was full of expectation.
"China Europe will definitely concede the goal! There's no way he's going to get past Rome! Maybe Milan will cross it, but Europe definitely can't! Duan Quan was looking intently at the court when an inappropriate voice sounded behind him.
The other party used English and not Italian, so you could hear what the other party was muttering at a glance.
Turning around, an Englishman in his thirties was digging his nostrils, chatting with others with disdain.
Next to him is also an Englishman, the kind of "gentleman" atmosphere that their nation is born with, which cannot be covered up by a huge beer belly.
"How much did you press?" The other Brit asked.
"Β£1000! Mike, what about you? β
"I didn't buy that much, I only bought a hundred!"
Seeing Duan Circle turn around, the two Englishmen laughed and said, "Friend, do you also buy the Roman victory?" β
"I bought Milan!" Duan Quan replied solemnly, "And I also bought Milan's clean sheet opponent!" β
The two Englishmen looked at each other and laughed.
"Good luck, friend, hehe."
"Thank you hehe!" Duan Huan replied, then turned his neck back and continued to watch the game.
Seeing Duan Quan's head facing him again, the two Britons laughed unscrupulously.
It may be difficult to guess who wins and who loses, but guessing whether a Chinese goalkeeper will concede a goal when he encounters Roma, most foreigners are still not optimistic about Ou Chuliang.
"Ou Chulian will not concede the ball!" Duan Quan clenched his fists, "Although foreigners don't support him, there are so many Chinese fans here!" Chinese fans are the largest in the world! Ou Chuliang has no reason to lose! β
In the middle of the pitch, Boban is slowly advancing with the ball.
Helwig and Guli advanced and retreated with Boban on the left and right, and Li Tie dragged behind and barely stepped on the midfield.
This is a completely different place between Li Tie's start and before, in the past when Milan attacked, there was no midfielder who dragged back to act as a midfielder.
Now with Li Tie, after the division of labor is clear, the organization of Boban will be smooth.
The ball came down three times and came down to Helwig on the right.
By this time, Leonardo had already rushed into the penalty area, seeking to respond. And Totti was like a lone wolf, standing in front of Helwig.
Totti has thin cheeks and blonde hair, and is a well-known Italian male model.
Even many female fans come to see Rome's game not to see the players playing, but to see the style of the wolf king.
'Totti is a very aggressive attacker and Roma's attacking dispatcher. At the same time, his speed is not bad, and such a frontcourt player is perfect. β
Totti was also the spiritual leader of Rome, with a tenacious fighting spirit and a never-give-up spirit. With him, the city of Rome is not afraid of any opponent. Even in defence, Totti can show extraordinary physical strength and stamina, and with these, the young Totti is not inferior to any Italian player! β
"Zeman has him under him, it can be said that he is like a tiger with wings!"
Faced with the Wolf King's one-on-one marking, Helwig was somewhat dwarfed. When the space for the ball became smaller and smaller, Totti was soon forced into the corner area.
Hellwig had no choice but to make as many corners as he could, but it didn't work.
Facing the camera lens, the Milan midfielder shook his head helplessly.
Both teams seem to be in the same situation, and it is difficult to pull a leak in the opponent in positional battles.
The ball was back at Roma's feet, and Chimenti didn't rush to get the ball up front, but passed it to Aldair in front of him.
The game has been going on for more than ten minutes, and the players on both sides have already moved their muscles. Although he has not yet launched a fierce attack, he is ready to deal a fatal blow to his opponent at any time.
Ou Chuliang stood outside the small forbidden area, his mood as calm as water.
The team song of the Roman fans with this ancient capital certainly has a historical charm, but when it comes to historical atmosphere, I am afraid that there is no country in this world that can compare with China, right?
Ou Chuliang, Chang'an, Beijing, and Fengtian have all been there, and if you want to breathe the air of a long history, the atmosphere in the imperial city is the strongest!
So the rest of the people would be excited, but Ou Chuliang didn't feel nervous, even if the opposition fans would erupt in boos when they held the ball in Milan.
This is not a condition that can interfere with Ou Chuliang, a good goalkeeper will not be disturbed by others at any time!
Opponents, teammates, and even referees, when the goalkeeper makes a move, even the referee's whistle is not in the ears! Not to mention the fans in the stands!
As Achurion slowly retreated, Rome attacked again.
Aldair has opted to go straight past midfield and find Totti with a big kick. While scrambling for a header, the Wolves were violently knocked down by Hurwig.
The referee thought that Hellwig's action was obviously suspicious, so he stepped forward to give a verbal warning and awarded the home team a free kick in front.
Totti's quick shot lobled the ball straight into the box and Delvicchio flicked it off with a header to attract the attention of defenders and ferry the ball to Sergio's feet.
The latter chested the ball, and when the ball hit the ground, he gently slammed it, dodged Sala's kick, and then slammed the ball towards the goal.
"Whew!"
In the stands, the home fans held their breath and were already cheering for the goal.
The quality of the ball was extremely high, and it was still in the box. If there is no defender to intercept, it is easy to score.
At this time, Ou Chuliang's agile figure was already moving quickly on the goal line, leaping forward with a vertical step, and slamming his fist into the ball with one hand.
"Bang!"
The ball hit Ou Chuliang's fist and bounced back, flying out of the corner of the penalty area on the right.
And Tomasi just happened to be there!
Milan is still not out of danger, Ou Chuliang can get up after making a save, and the other side of the goal is wide open!
"Danger!" Huang Jianxiang exclaimed.
Saying that it was too late, Li Tie hurriedly ran towards Tomasi. His purpose is not to be a man, nor to the ball, but to block the angle of the shot!
Tomasi also knew that he couldn't miss the opportunity, and as soon as he fell with his left and right feet, he immediately shot the ball towards the goal.
The Roma fans didn't have time to lament Sergio's must-finish goal saved by Acchulian and were pleasantly surprised to see Tomasi shoot from outside the box.
But is Milan really empty?
Knocking the ball out of bounds, Ou Chuliang will roll two laps, but this kind of blocking back into bounds, Ou Chuliang gets up quickly every time and returns to the most suitable position as quickly as possible.
Facing the mad bull-like Li Tie, Tomasi deliberately kicked an angle ball to bypass the opponent.
But in this way, it is naturally difficult for the ball to hit the power. So although the angle is a little tricky, the ball doesn't fly fast.
Ou Chuliang was a little glad that Tomasi was not Totti after all.
If it's Totti, you can get a curling ball on the spot; Or use a feint to shake off Li Tie, and then adjust it before shooting.
But now, after Ou Chuliang got up again, he took two steps sideways, reached out to catch it, and firmly grasped the ball in his hand.
"Oh! Damn it! It's Ou again! The Britishman in the press section slammed the tip of his pen on his notebook, and it seemed that he was very dissatisfied with Ou Chuliang for holding his pound.
Duan Quan secretly rejoiced, and even wanted to laugh out loud.
But out of "etiquette", he still kept his mouth shut, after all, there was still a long way to go.
"Ou Chuliang! It's the teenager Ou Chuliang again! β
"Very standard saves! Acchulian is in solid form, saving Milan from the precipice again. With two consecutive saves of the opponent's must-have goals, Acchulian once again showed his deep goalkeeping skills in front of fans all over the world. Huang Jianxiang is still excited, since Ou Chuliang transferred to Milan, Huang Jianxiang suddenly found that he actually liked to save!
Scoring goals on the football field will always be a constant topic, but Ou Chuliang is single-handedly making fans start to taste the thrill of "almost".
It's like when I was in SX, some BTs like to play suffocation, walking a tightrope on the edge of life and death, this feeling is not something that ordinary projects can experience.
"Wow! Ou Chuliang came to another double pounce? In the dimly lit room, the day shift leader guarded the laptop, constantly refreshing the interface.
Looking at the five words "wonderful second pounce" issued by Chen Tang backstage, the white squad leader was so excited that his legs swung straight.
"GIFs, let's make them! If you don't have a GIF, you can have a picture! β
"Why is it so slow?"
"Hurry up, hurry up!"
Ou Chuliang threw the ball out, and the ball flew high like a flying elf.
Helwig thrust his chest and stopped the ball that Ouchulian had thrown at his feet. Then he pushed with his right foot, and at the same time gave it to Leonardo, he also crossed the midfield.
By this time, most of the Roma players had returned to the defense, and Totti once again squeezed in from the side to defend, and the role changed quickly.
"You can't go this time!" The corners of Totti's mouth went up.
He was actually provoking his opponents.
"Not necessarily!"
Helweig was fooled.
Although he said this, Helvig did not relax at his feet. He kept shaking, trying to dodge out of the gap and waiting for an opportunity to break through.
"It's mine, thank you!"
Totti's quick eyes and feet had already detected Helwig's intention to pass the ball. Just as the opponent was about to knock back, he suddenly rushed up and stretched out his foot, breaking Helweig's backshot ball.
"Fake, you're actually copying my back!"
Helweig's face was red, he didn't expect that his extraordinary false Totti did not move, but when he returned the pass, Totti intercepted the ball, which is simply a "great shame"!
"If you just chose to break through, isn't this time already in the past?"
Totti patted his ass and walked away with the ball, leaving behind with such a sentence.
Yes, if Helwig hadn't ended up with a return pass, but instead used the return pass to sway and wait for an opportunity to move forward, Totti would have been thrown off by this point.
Totti thought of Helwig farther away, but Helwig didn't have much of his mind at that moment.
"If only he had been smarter!" Totti shook his head and sighed inwardly, "You have to use your brain to play football!" β
Boom!
With a muffled thud, Totti stumbled to his feet and almost lost his balance and fell to the ground.
"My balls, my balls?"
Needless to say, the ball was also lost.
"Good Lee, you are so trustworthy!"
Not only Maldini, who hurriedly returned to the defense, but also Helwig, who was closely behind Totti, was also happy.
Totti is good at everything, but in terms of strength, he is still a little worse.
Li Tie used his body to calculate unintentionally, and suddenly squeezed Totti away and snatched the ball back.
Under the wolf king's embarrassed gaze, Li Tie aimed at Helvig, who turned around again, and gently pushed, and the ball returned to his fullback's feet.
"In the face of absolute power, any little cleverness is insignificant!" Helvig laughed and walked away.
After getting past Totti, Hellwig continued down the flank, attracting the attention of the other Roma players.
At this time, Leonardo had run out of position in the penalty area, and Bierhoff kept pulling in the middle, allowing the Roma defense to lose sight of the other in a short period of time. This time Helwig didn't stick to the ball and stuffed it directly into the box to Leonardo, who won the ball and continued to rush towards the baseline.
Chimenti shouted in front of the door, "Can't let him move forward any more, kill him!" Squeeze him out! β
Everyone knows that Leonardo is going to make an inverted triangle cross!
Leonardo continued to sprint, the baseline was close in sight, and at the same time flashed a position gap.
At this moment, the Roma defenders not only have to block Leonardo's passing route, but also estimate that Bierhoff, who is grabbing the position, is a mess.
On the other hand, Murphyo also took advantage of the chaos to sneak towards the back post, and no one even noticed him.
Finally, Leonardo picked up the pace on the last kick, pushed the ball forward hard and quickly caught up, swept the ball to the ground in the form of a tackle, and rubbed the ball towards the penalty area.
Bierhoff jumped high, as did Aldair and Zago. The hands of the three of them pulled at each other, and no one let anyone.
The air superiority of the German bombers was on full display at this time, and Bierhoff's forehead easily hit the ball. With a flick of the head, the ball changed direction in an instant and smashed towards the Roma goal.
Amid the fans' exclamations, Chimenti leaped high and lifted the ball over the crossbar.
After landing, Aldair and Zago looked at each other, the latter with a sad look and the former a little lucky.
Zago was almost blown out by Bierhoff in the air, but Aldair took the opportunity to reach out and tug at Bierhoff's shirt to interfere with the opposition, otherwise he would not have pushed such a header with such a quality deviation.
"The Milan players told the Roma wolves with facts, even if we play away, we still have the ability to attack you!"
"Whether it's Leonardo's low cross or Bierhoff's header, it's a mortal threat to Roma!"
'If it hadn't been for Chimenti's right position, the outcome would have been hard to say.
"I think Rome will definitely have more concerns in the next attack, and if they want to attack with impunity, they will have to think about the consequences of doing so!"
"Of course, this attack stems from a clean steal by Li Tie in the midfield, and in the competition of strength, even the wolf king Totti has no power to fight back!" In addition to introducing Milan's attack, Huang Jianxiang did not forget to praise Li Tie.
After all, Li Tie is the second Chinese player to start in Serie A, and he is also the first outfielder to log in to Serie A!
From back to front, from defense to attack, from Ou Chuliang to Li Tie to consultation.
Ou Chuliang can surprise the world with hitting the street again and again, and Li Tie can also capture the hearts of fans with neat steals again and again, so will the Chamber of Commerce prove itself with a goal?
If you think about it this way, maybe you can really talk about mixing up with a shooter king or something.
Thinking of this, Huang Jianxiang smiled stupidly.
Ou Chuliang was pacing at the top of the arc at this time, and he never allowed himself to stop on the court. This game will not be very leisurely either, which Ou Chu knows very well in his conscience.
On the opposite side, Chimenti had already blocked the corner, and Totti stretched out his foot very lightly to unload the ball.
Totti never made a mistake when it came to unloading the ball, and that alone was a sight to behold.
Huang Jianxiang couldn't help pouting after watching it, if domestic players have Totti, then the Chinese team will inevitably become a frequent visitor to the World Cup!
This time, the Milan players retreated a little late, or some midfielders formed a certain "dependence" on Li Tie.
Fortunately, Li Tie did not press too much, and ran back to his defensive position at the moment of the transition between offense and defense, helping his teammates intercept the opponent and gaining time to return to defense.
Totti won the ball and quickly struck along the touchline towards the Milan penalty area, and Li Tie ran with him, ready to rush up and squeeze away from the opponent. And Totti, who had suffered a loss, had obviously been calculating Li Tie's cadence, and he didn't want to experience the feeling of being hit by a truck again.
This time, Totti opted for a pass.
Against the vacuum in front of the arc, Totti passed a ball to the ground. Although Li Tie tried his best to stretch his foot back, he still did not intercept the ball.
"Number 24!" Ou Chuliang stepped on the line of the small penalty area and shouted.
But it was still a step too late, and Del Vecchio rushed over like the wind, and shot fiercely.
Swish!
The ball was like an unsheathed sword that pierced into the heart of Milan.
βCHUAοΌβ
An afterimage was drawn on the goalline.
Achurion took two steps back as fast as he could, then flew diagonally behind and struck the ball into the air like a high jumper.
In the stands, the Roma fans stood up and sat down again.
The two Brits, in the press section, almost broke the ballpoint pen in their hands, and they couldn't understand why Ou Chuliang could burst out with such energy at that moment and save the ball in such a near-extreme way.
"Fack, damn China!"
"Hell, do his gloves have navigation attached?"
Listening to the swearing behind him, Duan Quan snickered in his heart.
"Humph! That's the goalkeeper of the Yashin Award in the World Cup, how could he be so easily attacked by the opponent? β
The fingernails of the white squad leader were almost embedded in the F5, and after refreshing them again and again, he finally saw a figure of Ou Chuliang flying to save.
Even if the photo hasn't been temporarily processed, it's just a blurry screenshot. The day squad leader couldn't help but roll around on the bed with excitement, so excited that he couldn't help himself.
"Ou Chuliang!"
"That's it!"
"It's always been so powerful!"
After rolling a few laps, the white squad leader had already put his hair on his head, and after brushing aside the hair blocking his face, he continued to press F5 beautifully, and another sentence was swiped on the screen: There was a sigh from the Roma fans in the stands.
"Alas!" At the Olympic Stadium, a lament rang out from the stands.
The fans scratched their ears and cheeks, why did Ou Chulian act just right to save the ball every time?
Could it be that he did some kind of oriental sorcery before the game?
Or did he play tricks on the Roma players?
Or did he master some kind of magic? Or is it a visitor?
On the side of the court, Zeman tilted his head, closed his eyes, and shook his hands, his frustration overflowing.
This time, even Totti shook his head, a look of helplessness.
The ball was well passed, just enough to hit the vacuum between Maldini and Costacuta.
Delvecchio's shot was also of good quality, but it was still saved by Occhulian "to the limit".
"Oh, it's beautiful!" Maldini gave a thumbs up to Ouchulian, even though he had seen countless of Ouchulian's miraculous saves, but every time he looked up to watch the replay, he still felt pleasing to the eye.
Ou Chuliang smiled and shook his head.
He didn't do it on purpose.
He admits there were some saves that were really extreme, but they didn't include the one that Del Vecchio had just made.
Speaking of which, Ou Chuliang's "extreme performance" depends more on his bounce and figure.
If a goalkeeper of about 1.95 meters comes to save the ball, he doesn't need to jump too high, or even gently touch the ground and stretch out his hand.
But Ou Chuliang is a flexible goalkeeper, and his bounce is a little better than anyone else of his height. In this way, the viewing will naturally increase greatly when making a save. Just like Jordan, who has just retired, when a person's bounce is far beyond his proportional height, the fans' mouths will naturally open into a "0" shape.
The save Ou Chuliang just now was held out with the palm of his hand, but in fact, he still felt that it was more than enough. Even if he started a little later, he still had the confidence to hit the ball out of the frame with his hands.
Sergio came to Del Vecchio and patted his teammate on the shoulder, "It seems that if we want to break Ou's goal, we have to be more patient!" β
The latter smiled, "Yes, fortunately, there is still time, there will always be a chance." But I also believe in probability, every shot on goal will invisibly increase the chance of the next goal, maybe this kick is not scored, the next time it will be scored. Remember last year's World Cup? That's how the Chinese team was eliminated! β
"What do you mean?" Sergio's mind was full of question marks.
Seeing his teammates' questions, Del Vecchio made a look of a magic stick and whispered: "This is God's will!" The Chinese team has not allowed the opponent to score in three consecutive group games, which is already very unreasonable. β
"And then Brazil in the round of 16 also didn't score a goal, this kind of performance even goes against the laws of this world!"
"So in the next second, as soon as the extra time started, the Chinese team was eliminated because of an own goal!"
"Any idea what it's called? It's called the law of cause and effect! Every save of China Europe violates the law of cause and effect in this world! β
"Sooner or later, he will be 'punished'!"
Seeing Del Vecchio look like he was doing something wrong, Sergio blinked, and for the first time, he got to know a new side of his teammate.
"Because..."
"The Law of Cause and Effect, my friend!"
"Oh, the law of cause and effect, the law of cause and effect!" Sergio repeated, and before Totti could take the corner, he asked again, "Is this the name of a religion?" β
Delvicio glanced at his teammates with disdain, then nodded vigorously, "How about it, are you interested in joining?" Mention my name and give you a 20% discount! β
"Okay, I'll think about it."
Totti takes a corner, and Acchulian is still on standby.
"Ou Chuliang is going to be tested the most severe tonight."
"Not only will he have to stand up for the last shift of the Milan defence, but he will also have to withstand the boos of the visiting fans and the pressure of personal honours."
"Sometimes too much stress can become a burden, and it can make a person suffer from both gains and losses."
"Just imagine, that's a clean sheet record in Serie A! What goalkeeper can keep a normal heart when approaching this record? β
"This is a double test for Ou Chuliang!"
"The test of Rome, the test of temptation!"
"I hope Ou Chuliang can maintain a normal heart, as long as he plays steadily and does not make mistakes, he can give his best performance to everyone. If you are bent on winning or some kind of glory, I think this game is a bit of a hanging, looking at the way Roma looks, they really don't want to let go of Milan, they don't want to let go of Ouchuliang. Huang Jianxiang analyzed.
Just as Totti was setting up the ball in the corner, Acchulian pushed a Roma player in front of goal.
"Dude, this is my territory!"
After Ou Chulian finished speaking, Maldini and Costa Kuta took the initiative to come up and squeeze the opponent away little by little.
From the corner, Totti's cross was a little closer to the goal, and without interference from the opposition player, Acchulian jumped high and this time he plucked the ball off the heads of both players with both hands.
However, Sergio did not protect his own body when he landed, and both Costacuta fell to the ground.
"Fake, this is a foul, it's a red card!" Sergio shouted.
He didn't want to miss every chance to score.
If he can score a penalty to break the "record" of Acchulian, he will surely make headlines in the Italian newspapers the next day.
Costacuta wanted to stretch out a friendly hand to Sergio below, but when he heard what the other party said, he immediately turned his head to find the referee and signaled that the other party faked a fall and should show a yellow card.
The referee had seen this little trick many times with both players, and he did not award a penalty or give Roma a yellow card. Both sides gave each each a verbal warning and motioned for Sergio to quickly stand up.
The two guys who were a little angry were still glaring at each other, but Ou Chuliang suddenly roared, rushed to the line of the penalty area with the ball, and threw the ball out fiercely.
This time, his target is Bierhoff!
The German received the ball in the middle circle and immediately crossed the halfway line with the ball.
The Roma players were in no mood to get involved with Costacuta, and hurriedly returned to the defense, praying in their hearts that they would not let Milan's attack succeed.
Fortunately, Bierhoff is not very fast, and his feet are not very sharp.
When he was forced by Zago to the point where he really had no angle, he could only force his feet to shoot from a distance.
Chimenti blocked the ball with both fists and passed it to his teammate on the other side.
Seeing this Zaccheroni sighed, what a good opportunity to counterattack, but it was wasted by Bierhoff like this.
In fact, if he had been a little more skilled with his feet, he could still have taken the ball into the box.
When the time comes, Rome can only passively accept it.
On the other side, Zeman broke out in a cold sweat, and couldn't help but take his hand out of his pocket after seeing Milan's unsuccessful counterattack, pointing at the players on the pitch and shouting loudly, reminding the players to concentrate.
The crisis in front of the Roma goal has been resolved, and the camera crosses most of the stadium and focuses on Ouchulian.
Everyone knows that it was Milan's goalkeeper who seized the opportunity just now and played a counterattack while the players of the two teams were still tearing up.
This is not called a sneak attack, this is called ball quotient, this is called the ability to read the game!
Ou Chuliang also beat Chimenti angrily this time.
Acchulian has already picked up an assist on Juventus this season, and Roma don't want to repeat the same mistake.
"Bierhoff is a little anxious, even if this ball is forced into the penalty area to make a point, why is he in such a hurry to hit the goal?" Huang Jianxiang also patted his thigh.
"Ou Chuliang's pass is really authentic, basically in one step!"
"If you change to a speed striker, you can't get the ball into the goal in one line?!"
In the tavern of Milan, the old man picked up a glass of dark beer: "Cheers to Milan!" β
"Cheers!" The rest of the fans shouted too.
"Cheers to Oliver!"
"Cheers!"
"Cheers to Ou!"
Cheers !!
With every attack, the Milan fans have to toast those who are involved in the attack, who launch the attack.
In taverns, large and small, some people are already drunk, while others are not poured with a thousand glasses.
But it is undeniable that this time in Rome, Milan really did not disappoint those shop owners, and the customers ordered one glass after another!
The two sides are close in strength, and no one side is significantly stronger than the other.
Such two teams either have offense and defense against each other, or meaningless inverted feet. Today, there is the personal "PK" factor of Totti and Ouchulian in it, and Roma and Milan are also fighting equally, and the fans watch the game with relish.
Roma, with the long passes of defenders and Totti's organization, played clever combinations from time to time and caused problems for Acchulian from time to time; Milan, led by Boban, stormed the opposition's defence again and again. Then use the "flash of inspiration" of Leonardo or Ouchulian or even Helvig to bring the opponent enough fatal trouble.
"Hehe, it seems that Roma has nothing to do with Milan." Zhang Lu said with a smile.
"If Milan can get past Roma, there is basically hope for the title this season. If you can't get over it, the morale will drop, and Milan will quickly be opened up by the opponent. β
"Actually, Milan didn't dare to give it their all in this game, after all, there was another round of Milan derby. Rather than playing against Roma, players, fans and clubs are more likely to trample their rivals on the same pitch. β
"It's good that this game doesn't come out of the way, but if there are variables, the Milan players are unlikely to continue to work hard"
"So it's still the same sentence, whether Ou Chuliang can continue his personal honor or not, everything depends on himself!"
Zhang Lu is right, if Roma scores, the Milan players will only wait for the opportunity to counterattack, and will not put all their forces into the attack, showing a posture that must be drawn; If Milan scores first, the players will also slack off after having a layer of insurance, and welcome the derby in a "taoguang" way.
So when neither side scored, it was the hardest and most desperate time for the Milan players.
As the first half ticked by, both sides had some threatening shots from within the frame, but they were defused by the goalkeeper and nothing was done.
The two Brits in the press section patted their thighs incessantly, they were not fans of Rome and did not expect Rome to win. It doesn't even have to be a Roma player to score, even if it is an own goal from a Milan player.
Zeman was also a little frustrated with the first half, he turned to the assistant coach and said, "Guys, I'm afraid we'll have to plan the attack for the second half." We did play in the first half, but the extra back on the opposite side was very difficult! β
'Milan haven't brought him in the first half of the league yet, so we can take the lead at the San Siro.
'But you can see what he does, which we didn't think about before the game.
"I think if you want to plan a win in the second half, you have to take that new Chinese into account."
The TA nodded, convinced.
Compared to the first half of the league against San Siro, Roma had a little less attack and shots on goal.
You must know that this is a home battle, why is the data still lowered?
Boban is still the same Boban, Maldini is still the Maldini, and Ouchulian is still that Ouchulian.
The difference is that between the Milan defender and the central defender, there is one more Li Tie.
That abominable cabbage, with whom few people in Rome could have the upper hand in hand-to-hand combat.
"No wonder you dare to block Barty's shot with your heart, that guy is simply made of iron!" Zeman gave Li Tie an evaluation.
At the referee's whistle, the first half of the game finally ended.
0-0, the two sides went back and forth, but never scored a goal.
"Tiezi, it's a good guard!"
"Lee, just play like this, it's all up to you in the second half!"
"Li, I didn't expect you to have such a wonderful performance on your first start, you will definitely become the pillar of Milan!"
His teammates patted Li Tie's midfield to express their affection, and Maldini was the most touching man in this game compared to the last time he faced Roma at the San Siro.
It's so easy!
The word may be a bit inappropriate, so let's switch to another one.
Too cozy?
Maldini had a feeling that Baresi was back.
Li Tie's unreserved participation made Maldini and others more than enough in defense, at least missing most of the dilemmas.
Recall the game against Roma in the first half of the round, every time Roma counterattacked Maldini, they had to think about whether to defend against Totti or look at Delvicchio. The three defenders are always stretched thin when defending, and the opposing striker can easily run out of the open space, and even Ou Chuliang has to rush out and give up his body to block the eye.
And in today's game, Maldini and Costa Curta only need to guard against the people around them, 1 defense and 1 hit, except for Ronaldo, Maldini really didn't take other forwards in his eyes. As for Ou Chuliang, except for a few saves on the goal line, he almost didn't give up the goal to defuse the opponent's single knife.
That's progress!
This is the role of Li Tie!
On the court, he is always running awkwardly, and sometimes even takes some inferior fouls.
But when Li Tie is on the field, the players and fans are at ease, and they don't have to worry about dirty work falling on themselves, all of which are covered by Li Tie.
A player like this means a lot to the team!
Looking at Li Tie's back from afar, Zaccheroni also sighed: "Li, this is your perfect opportunity to perform!" I hope you can do that in the second half..."
