Chapter 182: Smoke Bombs

Speaking after the Roma game, Ferguson told reporters, "Kaisa was injured in the first half and couldn't stick to the second half, so I had to replace him. Hopefully his injuries are okay. ”

Wounded......

Kaisa said that he was very helpless, but he had a tacit understanding with Ferguson, and he put on a bandage, well, I was really injured.

When he went home, it was still the masseur Zhou Ping who was driving, he sat in the passenger seat, his expression was painful, and he kept touching his ankles, as if he might miss the semi-finals.

The next day, news came out that Kai Sa was seriously injured and might miss the Champions League semi-finals.

The other three teams suddenly couldn't figure out the situation, Manchester United's offensive engine is Kaisa, if Kaisa can't play, Manchester United's threat will be greatly reduced, but they also have doubts, will it be Manchester United's smoke bomb?

Kaisa is only slightly injured, can he play in the semi-finals?

In the semifinals of the Champions League, Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool played against Milan, announcing the arrival of the Premier League.

European spinach companies are also optimistic about the Champions League trophy to stay in England, although AC Milan has Champions League genes, but there is still a gap between the hard power and Chelsea. Especially after Shevchenko's departure, AC Milan did not have a center forward who could get the ball.

Gilardino and Inzaghi are both opportunists, and when Kaka gets the ball, he looks ahead, huh? All the strikers are invisible? I had no choice but to ride alone.

Indeed, in those years, Kaka was invincible when he rode alone, and he felt like a young hero walking the world with a sword.

The spinach company has listed the latest odds. Chelsea are favourites in the last four, having lost the Carabao Cup against Manchester United, but Mourinho's strategy is fine, the problem is Kaisa.

Kaisa changed the tide of the game, and it wasn't Mourinho's fault. Chelsea have been in excellent form in the Champions League this year, fighting all the way through and there is almost no one to stop.

The second strongest is Liverpool, who also have a manager who knows a lot of battles, Benitez, who also eliminated AC Milan in 2005, a miraculous comeback that will be remembered by all Liverpool fans for a long time.

The third place is AC Milan, they have Kaka, Kaka's peak is in the past few years, and Pirlo, Seedorf, and Gattuso and other strong players, while Inzaghi lives on the offside line and may give the opponent a flying knife at any time.

AC Milan's coach Carlo Ancelotti is also proficient in the planning of the campaign, which is the source of AC Milan's confidence.

Ferguson is in control of a team, very stable, in terms of durability and stability, the first in the world, no one can compare, and he has a vicious vision, and the young people he recruits can grow.

But few people call him a master tactician, and in terms of a single battle, Ferguson is not as good as Mourinho, Benitez, and even Carlo Ancelotti is also superior to Ferguson.

Coupled with Kaisa being announced injured, Manchester United's competitiveness suddenly dropped a lot. Everyone is not optimistic, even Manchester United fans are full of pessimism, this year's Champions League journey may end in the semi-finals, unwilling!

The last stats listed by Spinach, Manchester United in the end, the least favored, they also showed that if Kaisa returns, Manchester United can be ranked behind Chelsea, and even win the title.

Relying only on the immature Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney, Manchester United can't beat the opponent, plus a Kaisa, Manchester United is invincible.

Ferguson dared to boldly announce Kaisa's injury, because he knew that Kaisa wanted to win the same game, and would cooperate with his approach, Kaisa really went home wrapped in gauze, and everyone believed it.

"Which team is most worried about?" Ferguson talks to Kaisa.

After a season of contact, Ferguson discovered Kaisa's talent and could do anything, and before the draw, he decided to seek Kaisa's opinion.

"AC Milan, they are most hungry for the Champions League, the excitement of 2005 was too deep."

Ferguson nodded, "What are we going to do if we draw AC Milan?" ”

Kaisa smiled, didn't you test me? "Don't we have Park Ji-sung? Just let him defend Kaka, follow him to his house, be sure to follow Kaka, don't give him space to sprint. ”

"What about the others?" Ferguson was satisfied. Chelsea and Liverpool are both in the Premier League and know each other's roots, and Ferguson is not afraid of these two teams, as long as Kaisa plays, the team's chances of winning are huge.

It's AC Milan, it's very hidden. Thankfully, Ronaldo can't play in the Champions League, otherwise they would have been too difficult to resist.

"I'll take care of the rest." Kaisa has a faint smile, he is not afraid of others. Kaisa also has an acquaintance Stefan at AC Milan, and if he can play, Kaisa can claim the victory.

Cafu has left AC Milan, which is a pity, otherwise Kaisa would still have the opportunity to compete with Cafu.

The results of the draw came out, and sure enough, Kaisa and Ferguson speculated, Manchester United against AC Milan, Chelsea against Liverpool.

Mourinho is more uncomfortable than anyone else, and the one he fears most is Benitez, who is not easy to deal with.

After Benitez took office at Liverpool, his league record can almost be said to be miserable, often robbing the rich to help the poor, but not robbing Manchester United's rich. At the same time, though, Benitez is a cup specialist.

In the cup tie, Rafael Benitez's Liverpool maintained an overwhelming advantage over Jose Mourinho's Chelsea. The two teams will meet in the semi-finals and Benitez is smiling as he decides to give Jose Mourinho's Chelsea a kick-off.

Manchester United began their rotation in the league as they prepared for the Champions League. Even though Kaisa didn't play, United comfortably beat visiting Sheffield United at home to stabilize the league.

The match against AC Milan is about to begin. Manchester United's home and away fixtures are on the disadvantage side of the schedule.

Carlo Ancelotti claimed before the game that Kaka was the better one, with Kaisa at most second and second in Europe. What's more, Kaisa can't play yet, and Kaka will have the advantage. Carlo Ancelotti has the strongest lineup, and there are too many veterans in Milan, which is the biggest problem, and the physical strength of the veterans is difficult to support the war of attrition.

At Old Trafford, he still follows AC Milan's favourite formation, 4321.

Dida in goal, Odor, Nesta, Kaladze and Jankulovski in the backline, Gattuso, Pirlo and Ambrosini in the midfield, Seedorf and Kaka up front, and Inzaghi in the forward line.

It's really a standard Christmas tree formation, and AC Milan's players are not easy to deal with in the hands of other coaches, but Ancelotti watched the food and directly sacrificed the Christmas tree, which broke out with strong combat effectiveness.

On the Manchester United side, Ferguson was not conservative at critical moments, with a 433 lineup, a strong attack at home, Kaisa played, and the injury healed at a critical moment.

Goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar, Gary Neville, Rio Ferdinand, Nemanja Vidic and Heinze in the back line. Patrice Evra is on the bench for the time being, having already played in the last league game and fitness could be an issue.

In midfield, the lineup of Paul Scholes, Mascherano and Park Ji-sung. Park Ji-sung mainly follows the defense card and has the heaviest defensive task. Mascherano and Carrick have to deal with Seedorf and Gattuso and others, which is a test of tacit understanding.

The front trident, Kaisa and Rooney are separated on either side, and Ronaldo is in the middle. Kaisa and Rooney can also defend, while Ronaldo's defense is like, unreliable.
