350 draws
After the victory over Roma, Jiang Shan found that he wanted to keep a low profile, but it didn't work well. They are already level on points with Roma and are still on the rise, and they say they don't want to compete for the title, which is definitely psychological warfare.
After the game, Jiang Shan continued to play stupid and continued to praise Inter Milan and Roma, who were the most powerful contenders for the league title. The game in Milan was very difficult, and they had to play one game at a time, and the veteran players were under a lot of physical load, unable to maintain their form, and there was no truth.
Most reporters don't believe the nonsense of the country, and before the season is halfway through, they say that the league championship has been decided, who dares to believe it? Anyway, the reporter is starting to report that Milan is one of the contenders for the league title. If it weren't for the start of the season minus eight points, they would now be three points ahead of Inter Milan and the absolute number one.
Jiangshan is concerned about winning every league game, and during this time, he carefully adjusted the team's state, the Champions League has been qualified early, and the first leg of the Coppa Italia round of 16 has also passed smoothly, and he has given Simeone the coaching authority of the two games.
Simeone was flattered, even a little nervous, a little excited, "The remaining two Champions League group games, let me coach too?" ”
Jiang Shan nodded, "I have already qualified ahead of schedule, and the first place in the group is not a problem, and the remaining two games will make you feel refreshed." ”
"Hey, hey, okay! It's the Champions League, it's the Coppa Italia, I've coached a lot of games this season. Simeone licked his lips, "Do you think I'm going to win all?" ”
Jiang Shan smiled, he didn't know how to answer.
In the Coppa Italia, the home game against Brescia was played well, winning 2:1. But in the two Champions League games, the performance was very average.
Facing AEK Athens away, AC Milan unexpectedly lost, losing 0:1 to the team in Athens away, sending warmth to the other side.
If it weren't for Jiangshan's leave, it is estimated that he would be so angry that he would take back his coaching authority. He pretended to be ill, went outside to seek medical treatment, and the last two Champions League group stage games were directed by Simeone from the sidelines.
Of course, Jiangshan was not sick, he just went to the Greek island to relax for a few days, meet a few friends, drink, look at the sea, and make love. At the same time, let Simeone feel the pressure, no team is so easy to lead, especially the Champions League team, it is easy to overturn.
In the final round of the group stage, AC Milan host Lille, who have already confirmed the second place in the group and will want to fight for the top spot in the group.
Simeone finally gave his all and held on to a 1-1 draw at home, which was not easy. At the end of the game, he had no idea of coaching the Champions League.
Seeing Jiang Shan coming back, he returned the team to him, "This is your team, it's too difficult to bring." My prestige is not enough, and my mobilization ability is not as good as yours, so I can't bring it up. ”
Simeone is only an assistant coach after all, Jiangshan's prestige in AC Milan is too high, the players basically only listen to him, plus the team qualified ahead of schedule, so that the players can tighten their nerves again and show 100% status, it is not easy, at least Simeone can't do it.
Jiang Shan smiled, "This is what you said, the best opportunity for you, you can't grasp it." ”
"In the future, I will build my own team, and I won't let you look down on me." Simeone said hatefully, "In the Coppa Italia game, I continue to arrange tactics behind the scenes? ”
"Of course, this is your stage." Jiang Shan said magnificently, "Hurry up and accumulate experience, the way to deal with players, every coach is different, I hope you quickly find your own way." ”
Simeone's coaching philosophy is good, especially after training with Jiang Shan for several years, he already has a lot of skills, but he lacks some experience, since Jiang Shan wants to push him out as a head coach, of course, he must create better opportunities.
In the blink of an eye, the league points gap between AC Milan and Inter Milan has not narrowed at all, and it has almost been widened, if Inter Milan also draws, the points gap will become 7 points.
At the moment, it is still a five-point difference, and Inter Milan are feeling the pressure. They want to succeed in the Champions League, Milan have caught up, and Roma are still hanging in third place, following closely.
The situation of the three kingdoms was initially formed, and Inter Milan rushed to the first place.
The Champions League group stage is over, the three teams in Serie A are average, and although AC Milan is the top of the group, their dominance cannot be compared with last season. As for Inter Milan and Roma, they only finished second in the group stage.
Inter Milan are behind Bayern Munich, Roma are pressed under Valencia, and unlike the strength of previous seasons, Serie A has weakened dramatically.
Chelsea, Bayern Munich, Liverpool, Valencia, Lyon, Manchester United, Arsenal and AC Milan topped their respective groups, with the Premier League teams being the strongest overall.
Bayern in the Bundesliga has recovered strongly with the maturity of Ribery and others, and they have begun to show their muscles in Europe, and they want to compete for the title. La Liga was relatively lonely at this time, Real Madrid and Barcelona only finished second in the group, but Valencia grabbed the first place in the group.
Milan's last-16 rivals have also surfaced, excluding Lille in the same group and Inter Milan and Roma in the same league, and their opponents will be between Barcelona, PSV Eindhoven, Real Madrid, Celtic and Porto.
Jiang Shan vaguely remembers that in the last Milan met Celtic in the round of 16, he almost fell, and with Kaka's thousand-mile walk, he rode alone to pass the danger and reached the quarterfinals.
I don't know what to do in this life?
When the Champions League draw was made, the selection of the Ballon d'Or winners was also made.
Kaka overtook Ronaldo and Hua Luo to become the new Ballon d'Or winner. Last season, Manchester United were the biggest winners, with Ronaldo winning the Ballon d'Or in a Manchester United shirt; Last season, Milan emerged as the biggest winners, with Kaka winning the Ballon d'Or.
Moreover, their other Ballon d'Or winner, Ronaldo, has poached into the team, and he has also performed well this season, almost on a par with Kaka.
The two aces in the Milan team, the top two in the Golden Ball Awards, Ferguson regretted a little, "Xiao Luo actually resurrected Jiangshan?" ”
According to Ferguson's judgment, Xiao Luo will definitely become a frequent visitor to Milan nightclubs, but he didn't expect Jiang Shan to control Xiao Luo's desires and let him transfer more of his energy to the game. Next season, Xiao Luo can still maintain his highlights.
The lottery ceremony is very simple, Jiang Shan doesn't care much, no matter what opponent, they have to deal with it. Of course, it's better to be Real Madrid, who have been in poor form for the past two years and are easy to deal with.
The hat of the Champions League Sixteen Lang has been worn on his head, and he can't catch it.
The draw came out and Milan did not meet Celtic, but met Porto, a side of the Portuguese Super League.
Celtic were drawn by Chelsea and the situation changed between the two teams. The situation of other teams is no different from the previous one, Inter Milan still meets Valencia, of course, this time Valencia's strength is weakened, and they have a better chance of qualifying.
