Chapter 544: The Man Who Lives on the Offside Line

"Penalty!! The referee awarded another penalty!! ”

"What's going on in the restricted area!!"

Now it was the turn of the Atletico Madrid players to cheer and they all ran towards Griezmann to celebrate his penalty.

AC Milan players surrounded the referee as they protested against the penalty.

"Well done!!" Gao Bo was shaking his fists excitedly on the sidelines, a stark contrast to when his team had just been whistled for a penalty.

Allegri went straight to the fourth official and challenged the referee's decision.

'It was a penalty indeed, Nesta's hand blocked the football!'

At this time, the TV broadcast is playing back in slow motion.

The replay began with Griezmann's fake shot and a real dunk, and the ball changed course and rolled onto Nesta's balanced arm, almost at which point he made a goalkeeper to catch the ball.

It's a penalty!

The referee didn't give him a red card, which was already considered an extrajudicial favor.

AC Milan's protests were ineffective, and captain Ambrosini also received a yellow card for angry protests.

After the penalty is made, the referee naturally cannot easily change the decision.

Antoine Griezmann at the penalty spot!

He took the penalty he created.

The referee's whistle blows.

Antoine Griezmann runs, shoots!

He volleyed directly into the top left corner of the goal, and although AC Milan goalkeeper Abbiati judged the right direction, the angle of this shot was really tricky, and the ball hit the net from the top corner!

In the sixty-eighth minute of the game, Atletico Madrid exceeded the score again!

The away fans in the stands went completely crazy!

With a 2-1 lead away and two away goals, Atletico Madrid fans have the hope of qualifying for the Champions League semi-finals!

For Atletico Madrid fans, this is a match they have not played for more than a decade, and it is a real surprise to be able to remain so competitive in both the Champions League and the league this season!

Of course, they don't mind the bigger surprises!

If Atletico Madrid make it to the last four, they could face Barcelona, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich.

Barcelona and Real Madrid are all too familiar to Atletico Madrid, and the two rivals Atletico Madrid are fond of because they have been winning against them in the past two seasons.

If only we could make it to the finals....

Atletico Madrid fans are starting to look forward to it.

.......

After the score took the lead again, Gao Bo immediately made a substitution!

The 2-1 scoreline means that Atletico Madrid are quite close to the last four of the Champions League.

At this time, it is AC Milan who should be in a hurry.

Gabby came on and he replaced the scorer Reyes.

Atletico Madrid fans chanting Reyes' name as they came to the away stadium, and Reyes raised their hands and applauded in response!

"Atletico Madrid made the first substitution, Gabi came on for Reyes! This is an adjustment to strengthen the midfield defense!! ”

After Gabi appeared, he also came with Gao Bo's latest instructions.

He ran up to Ibrahimovic, and Gobo told him to keep an eye on Ibrahimovic.

The Swede is the heart of AC Milan's attack, and although he is a central striker, he is not a traditional stumbling centre-forward, he has a wide range of movement, he drops back deeply, and he can even be used as a midfielder when necessary.

AC Milan's attack is very dependent on Ibrahimovic's individual play, and as long as one step is clamped, AC Milan's attack will be in a stale.

So, in the next game, people can see the confrontation between Ibrahimovic and Gabi!

In the 73rd minute of the game, Gabi directly connected with the ball and put the Swede to the ground.

The referee verbally warned Gabi, which caused a lot of displeasure on the part of AC Milan, who even thought it was at least a yellow card action.

Ibrahimovic limped off the field to heal, while Allegri looked anxious.

If Ibrahimovic is injured, it will be a huge blow to AC Milan now.

Ievic is the finisher in the front court and can also act as a dealer. At a time when the team is in trouble, Allegri needs the superstar even more.

Fortunately, after a check-up by the team doctor, Ibrahimovic was fine and he returned to the pitch.

And as the game continues, people will have to face up to Gabi, who has only returned to Atletico Madrid's defensive midfielder from a small team this season.

In the confrontation with Ibrahimovic, it can be said that he can't take advantage of Ibrahimovic at all.

Under his close pressing, Ibrahimovic played very hard.

In this case, Allegri made one last substitution, he replaced the veteran who was sitting on the bench... Inzaghi!

Inzaghi is 39 years old, and the veteran Italian striker has reached the age of retirement.

If it were Inzaghi, who was five or six years younger, Gao Bo might have done something about this substitution, but what can Inzaghi do now?

Gao Bo didn't think a thirty-nine-year-old man could pose any threat to his defenses.

On the bench of AC Milan, there are many good players who can play, such as Emma Nuelsen, Aquilani, Maxi, etc., these are the players who are in their prime.

If Gao Bo remembers correctly, Inzaghi will also retire at the end of this season, and he has basically only played eight or nine games in the past two seasons, followed by injuries and a drop in form.

This is something that every veteran has to go through, and at the age of thirty-nine, any slight injury can directly lead to the retirement of a player.

AC Milan made a quick substitution, Inzaghi replaced Boateng!

They're going to start attacking desperately in the final slots.

AC Milan can't afford to lose at home, which means that if they want to reach the last four, they will not only have to beat Atletico Madrid on the road, but they will also have to score more than two goals.

You can imagine how difficult it is.

Therefore, there is still time, and the AC Milan players will naturally have to fight against the water.

For Atletico Madrid, now they are leading on the field anyway, as long as they guarantee this result and return to their home stadium, Atletico Madrid can occupy an absolute advantage.

As a result, they began to use possession to kill time and drain AC Milan's fighting spirit.

This tactic is naturally no problem, as long as the football is firmly controlled on his side, the few attacks of the opponent will not threaten the goal guarded by Navas at all.

This is certainly true in theory, but in practice it is not.

Sometimes, you have to acknowledge the role of superstars.

Although Gabi defended Ibrahimovic and had the upper hand overall, Ibrahimovic was a striker after all, and he could fail ten times, but as long as he succeeded eleventh time, then he succeeded.

Like this one.

Seedorf managed to get the ball out of the way when he was pressed, and then he passed it to Ibrahimovic.

Ibrahimovic didn't choose to stop the ball this time, because he found that as soon as he stopped the ball, Gabi's defense was immediately like a maggot on the tarsal bone, and he couldn't get rid of it.

As he was running, he suddenly toe the ball to the front.

"Ibrahimovic's handling is somewhat casual......"

The Italian commentator was just about to criticize it, and he quickly became excited.

Inzaghi !! Inzaghi was successfully countered offside!!!! ”

On the pitch, Inzaghi ghostly appeared in the box and then received a seemingly casual cross from Ibrahimovic!

What Inzaghi has to do next is simple.

The 39-year-old veteran, who was quite calm in the face of such an opportunity, put the ball on his right foot, and then pushed the far corner before Navas came out, and scored the ball with ease!!

Inzaghi !!!!!!

San Siro boiled.

Not long after playing, Inzaghi scored a goal.

However, at this time, the Atletico Madrid players approached the linesman, because they felt that the moment Inzaghi received the ball must have been offside.

The linesman was a bit hesitant, but he ultimately decided that Inzaghi was not offside.

It was difficult to tell for sure from every angle of the camera on the television footage whether Inzaghi was offside or not, and he seemed to lean out a little, but seemed to be on the same line as the last defender.

"It's not hard for a Madridian, it's a man who lives on the offside line."

Said the Italian commentator.

With this goal, AC Milan equalised.

The game ended quickly and neither side could find another goal, and Atletico Madrid drew 2-2 away at AC Milan.

Who will kill the deer depends on the second round of the contest between the two sides.
