Chapter 280: Old Baton Penalty Swan Song (Page 1/1)
"Zhuo Yang, I'm going to let old Billy take this penalty, okay?" Kaka asked him.
Hearing this, Zhuo Yang smiled.
It was Costa Curta's farewell game, and if it could have been a goal, even a penalty, it would have been a perfect finish. If this is an ordinary game, it does not involve the battle for Kaka's top scorer, and it does not involve the flame of victory in Zhuo Yang's heart, it is the right thing to do to let the baton take this penalty.
However, Kaka had fallen behind in the race for the lead with Totti, and AC Milan had also lost the lead on the pitch at this time, so it was somewhat inappropriate to make this move again. However, Zhuo Yang smiled.
"Ricardo, with your bearing, as well as this pattern and calmness, you are not popular and intolerable! served. ”
"Then you agree to say that?" Kaka smiled too.
"Of course!" Zhuo Yang grabbed Kaka's shoulder: "And I'm not afraid to tell you clearly, this year's top scorer will definitely be yours, Totti...... He's far from it. ”
I don't know why, Kaka felt a lot more relaxed when he heard Zhuo Yang say this, and it seemed that the anxiety caused by the battle for the best scorer had disappeared. Shrugging his shoulders, Kaka gave a wink and walked towards Costa Kuta with the ball.
Zhuo Yang was admiring Kaka in his heart, and Kaka was not admiring Zhuo Yang. The top scorer battle is not between him and Totti, and Zhuo Yang is also inseparable, in a sense, he can't even afford to lose that honor even more than Kaka.
Kaka was nothing more than a runner-up finish, which is still an honor for an attacking midfielder, but Zhuo Yang had to rack his brains to get rid of that insidious bet. No matter how much it is whitewashed, no matter how public opinion operates, this is a great damage to Zhuo Yang's hopes, and he will make the media laugh at him for a long time.
And this penalty just now was an opportunity created by Zhuo Yang for Kaka with all his ability, otherwise he would have been able to hit the goal by himself. Zhuo Yang gave the opportunity, but Kaka gave it to others, and the good character and good reputation all belonged to Kaka, Zhuo Yang got nothing but had to endure a more severe competition for shooters, because the opportunity is not endless, one less is one less. So just now Kaka had to respect Zhuo Yang's opinion, and if he didn't agree with Kaka, he wouldn't insist.
However, Zhuo Yang didn't mind Kaka's concession at all, and agreed happily. Perhaps, while Zhuo Yang praises Kaka, he should also praise himself.
When Kaka walked towards Costa Kuta with a sunny smile, the audience knew what he was up to, and there was thunderous applause, and everyone began to cheer on the old baton. Kostacuta wasn't a cheerful person, he just smiled and said a few words to Kaka, and then walked forward together.
As he walked, he looked at Zhuo Yang, who was explaining something to Oliveira and Borriello. Batons are smart guys, and Kaka knows the complicated backdrop behind the penalty kick. It wasn't surprising that Kaka could do this, but it was surprising that Zhuo Yang could have such a calm attitude.
The baton didn't like Zhuo Yang, because in his opinion, Zhuo Yang was just a passerby, just a profiteer who earned an exaggerated salary here. Zhuo Yang is too cunning, so Ji Momozi is in a forward dilemma but it is difficult to speak, Zhuo Yang is too aggressive, and he will turn his face immediately if he doesn't agree with him and will not give up.
Costacuta knew that Zhuo Yang knew his attitude towards his business-oriented colleagues, because Zhuo Yang never took the initiative to get close to him. Zhuo Yang and the baton need to communicate about things only on a case-by-case basis, and they can't say a word more, not at all like talking with the young nine masters and pharaohs. This also made Costa Kuta dislike Zhuo Yang even more, and young people should show sincerity first.
It was precisely because he knew Zhuo Yang's attitude that the baton was a little surprised by Zhuo Yang's current behavior. In his early forties, he is an old man in the football world, but in his whole life, he has just crossed the threshold of youth. The 41-year-old Costacuta can't understand the 22-year-old Zhuo Yang, which is normal.
There are more spirits. The Maldinis were also looking at Zhuo Yang and Kaka, asking themselves if they could still be so graceful in this situation if they were to change to themselves, they were not sure.
"Small things are not shrewd, big things are not confused." Nesta told Maldini: "It's not surprising that Zoyang has behaved, he is the captain of the team, and he is also the captain of the championship team. ”
.
Costacuta's penalty was mediocre, with a modest push to the left of the middle, only to be saved by the clever De Sanctis to the right. The baton used the last goal of his career to level the score at 2-2 for Milan.
Costacuta, who came through Milan's academy with Wismara, spent only one season on loan at Monza in 23 years, spending the rest of his time at Milanello. In those 23 years, he has scored a total of three goals for AC Milan.
The first goal was too early for him to remember when, apparently against an amateur team in the first round of the Cup, when a baton scored from a corner. In that game, Costacuta was the youngest player on the field. In that match, AC Milan won 18-0.
The second goal, from the 1990-91 season, was a 4-1 home win over Roma by AC Milan in the ninth round, with Costa Curta scoring his team's fourth goal in the 78th minute. The winner that year was Sampdoria, and the top scorer was named Vialli.
Another 16 years on, Costacuta scored his third goal, the year he was the oldest player in the senior squad.
It is precisely because of the scarcity of goals that it is precious. This goal is undoubtedly the best goodbye gift, both for the fans and for the baton himself. Carlo Ancelotti was intriguing, and he opted to replace Costacuta early at this point, making the goal the last moment of the old boy's game for world football.
Dignaro, the 20-year-old midfielder of the second team, stood on the sidelines, and the referee held up the sign that No. 33 replaced No. 5. Costacuta began to hug every teammate, including Zhuo Yang. The teammates were clapping, the opponent Udinese was clapping, the referee was clapping, and the whole San Siro was applauding.
Costacuta has finally completed his long career, and although he is a legendary classic back four, his fame and achievements are a bit far from Baresi and Maldini, and even less than the handcuffed Tasotti in handcuffs, but Costacuta is still one of the best defenders in football history.
The year Costacuta entered the Milan first team coincided with the year Silvio Berlusconi took charge, and he witnessed the ups and downs and glories of Milan, witnessing the most powerful generation of heroes in the history of modern football. After the departure of Costacuta, Maldini became the only chronicler of the former football hegemon, a lonely legend.
With 663 appearances for AC Milan and 457 Serie A appearances, he has finally done it all. After hugging his teammates, Costa Kuta smiled and walked to the sidelines, just like he had set foot on for the first time 23 years ago, his smile even a little shy. He looked up at the familiar stadium, which was his theater of dreams.
Costa Kuta felt that he had no regrets, but a subtle bitterness flashed in his eyes, perhaps he thought of that Toyota Cup night twelve years ago. If he could go back to that night, would old Billy go back? Who knows!
Costacuta stopped, looked at Zhuoyang, then at Kaka, and finally chose to hand the captain's armband to Favali.
