571, the blue moon sank
"Drip, drip, drip!"
By the time 90 minutes had passed, Pellegrini no longer had the graceful demeanor of a handsome man, only annoyance and embarrassment.
A few metres away from him, the visiting coach Allegri was red-faced.
'Manchester City are a strong squad but they don't have Champions League experience and we showed what we can do.
At the post-match press conference, Ah Yi said happily:
"It's not 100 per cent sure yet, but I'm confident that I'll lead the team to the task of qualifying."
The reporters in the audience pouted:
If a six-goal away win doesn't make you "very confident", then it's time for this coach to shoot out!
That's right, AC Milan swept Premier League upstart Manchester City 6-0 away from home!

"The score...... It's embarrassing. I'm not going to judge the referee's decision on Demichelis' red card and penalty because it was stupid. The responsibility for the loss lies in my misjudgment of the situation, from the starting line-up......"
Pellegrini spoke slowly:
'We were too loose in our defence and didn't press enough for the opposition and the back line was too early for the opposition to get a lot of offside chances...... But at the end of the day, it's because we didn't limit their core players well, and by the time we wanted to limit him, it was too late......"
Ronshette's win over Manchester City was no surprise at all.
But being able to win six goals in a row on the road so easily did not surprise him.
For Manchester City, who are sitting at home to face their opponents, they conceded two goals in the opening 20 minutes, and the second goal was an own goal created by their own defenders, which not only seriously damaged morale, but also forced them to attack aggressively.
Once Manchester City chose to attack, they completely fell into the rhythm of Milan's side.
The three fast horses of Ronshit, Kaka and Shaarawy smashed the Blue Moon's midfield to pieces, coupled with Balotelli's skills, the 31-year-old Toure, the 29-year-old Klich and Zabaleta, and the 28-year-old Kompany may be able to barely keep up with them, but the 34-year-old Demichelis was completely dragged by Milan's counter-attacking attack, and finally could only exchange a desperate foul for himself a red card in the final minute of the first half.
When Manchester City needed to score, they were missing a defender, which made Pellegrini completely devastated!
In this game, the main strikers Aguero and Dzeko were unable to play, Negredo alone was unable to break through the back line of AC Milan, Silva who was known as the "frontcourt magician" disappeared under the fierce defense of De Jong, and Navas and Kolarov on the wing were under the influence of mentality...... There's not even a way to beat Abate and Emmanulsen one-on-one!
And what about Longshute?
After 20 minutes of high-intensity pressing on Lonsette in the first half, Yaya Toure discovered a dismal truth: it would be difficult for him to stop Lonshit without a brutal foul, and City could not afford to lose one man if he committed a violent foul.
After figuring this out, Toure gradually reverted to the "big health style of play" that he had become accustomed to in the Premier League - why work so hard if he couldn't play anyway?
Anyway...... I'm just an African midfielder, do I still want to win the Ballon d'Or?
Anyway...... Compared to previous seasons, this year's ability to enter the knockout stage is already a great breakthrough, even if it loses to AC Milan, it is not a shame, right?
After all...... AC Milan is the second most successful super club in the history of the Champions League!

If City showed a desire to win in the first half, they were almost on an errand in the second half.
They are still the much-maligned nouveau riche and mercenary, and they are still a long way from becoming the new giants hungry for victory.
It seems not surprising that such a Manchester City was beaten into a sieve by a smug AC Milan!
With three shots and a pass, Kaka and Balotelli and even El Shaarawy providing two assists, Milan's front four led the team to a perfect victory, and even the most discerning critic could only say one thing:
"Ahh I was almost pounced on by Joe Hart! ”

AC Milan swept Manchester City by six goals, and although this result gave European football a small shock, it did not make everyone see Milan as the biggest favorite to win the title.
At least the spinach companies that have countless professional probability calculations didn't immediately adjust them to the first odds.
The first favorite to win the championship is still Bayern Munich, although everyone thinks that UEFA will never tolerate a team to win the Champions League for three consecutive years, but the combination of defending champions + current No. 1 coach Pep Guardiola + top players in all positions still keeps Bayern's popularity high.
Second and third are Carlo Ancelotti's Real Madrid and Jose Mourinho's Chelsea for the second time.
Anpang and Magic Bird, both of the top coaches in football today, are also known as 'Champions League experts', and the clubs behind them are more serious about the Champions League trophy than the league title – especially when Chelsea lost to Ronssert's Bayern Munich in the 2012 final, which has led to a greater hunger for the Champions League trophy now......
As for AC Milan, critics will say:
"Manchester City are nouveau riche, it was difficult to even qualify from the group in the first two seasons, beating them doesn't mean anything!"
"Only by beating Bayern, Real Madrid, and Barcelona can we prove that AC Milan is a top giant!"
"What? Barcelona has long been killed? That means that Barcelona is nothing more than that, and only Bayern and Real Madrid are the top giants in the dream team! ”

AC Milan, who returned to Italy with a big victory, travelled to the 25th league game three days later.
Entering the week of doubles, Allegri also made a significant rotation of the starting lineup, after all, there are indeed many veterans in Milan's squad who are around 30 years old.
He has changed from striker to goalkeeper, and players who transferred during the winter break such as Rami and Essien have also been given the opportunity to start, and Ayi is even ready to lose here.
Winning streak?
To hell with it!
As a manager, he doesn't take such an inconsequential record too seriously, he values the overall form of the team and the atmosphere in the dressing room, as well as the fitness of the players......
That's why he couldn't wait to let Kaka, Shaarawy and the others rest, and they didn't even enter the squad.
After all, Milan have a seven-point lead over Juventus, and they still have a chance to make mistakes.
But Milan's group of substitutes did not waste this opportunity to make a mistake, Desiglio set up Pazzini to open the scoring, and as a defender, Rami extended the score with a flowing heavy gun, and a group of substitutes turned away from the opponent's stadium, squeezing the home team's possession below 40% at one point.
Ronshette watched the 75th minute while sitting on the bench, and finally patted his ass and gave up the idea of coming out to score points.
After 25 rounds of league games this season, he has played 22 games, which is already a high attendance rate for him.
Whether at Ajax or Bayern Munich, due to national team games, injuries, rotation and other factors, he only made about 25 league appearances per season.
After all, the level of the Eredivisie was too low, Ajax was enough to cope with it at that time, and Bayern Munich was even more benched, and the vice-captain Schweinsteiger was almost squeezed out of the main position, and AC Milan obviously did not have such conditions.
Therefore, this season's Longshute is also quite hardworking, as long as it is a slightly uncertain game, he will definitely play as a deserved.
The more capable you are, the more you earn, and the greater your natural responsibility.
If AC Milan loses, those critics will not criticize Kaka and Balotelli, but will definitely point the finger at themselves in the first place!
Who made you number one in the world?
Who made you a Golden Ball trifecta?
Who made you the only superstar in football history to be worth more than 100 million?
Who made him earn as much as the rest of his teammates combined?
And...... You're still a Chinese......
Who do you squirt if you don't spray?
