Under the bright lights of Istanbul, Gerrard jumped in front of Stam and shook his head to head the ball into the back corner of the goal, while the Dutchman could only watch it happen.

Jiang Qi shook his head on the sidelines, his eyes on the other end of the halfway line, in front of the opposite penalty line, Stam did not wear the white jersey in the Infinity Theatre, but a blue Chelsea jersey, allowing the rookie coach to return to reality.

Just before preparing for the Champions League final in Istanbul, Lao Jiang entered the Infinity Theater and encountered the famous "Istanbul Night", and the system gave him the task of leading AC Milan to a tragic ending and achieve the final victory as the head coach.

Originally, the rookie coach wanted to take Stam out of the starting lineup, but after evaluating the state of the other central defenders, Jiang Qi felt that believing in the Dutchman was the best choice at the moment, but it was like a spell shrouded in the Altatuk Stadium, and after Lao Jiang repeatedly reminded Stam to pay attention to the players inserted behind the Liverpool midfield, the fulcrum of the reversal of the game still came to his eyes.

Fortunately, he was prepared and signaled the Milan players not to kick off, but to propose to change the players on the field.

Then, one of the most surprising candidates in a group of warm-up substitute players was called to Jiang Qi's side, and he was the Frenchman Dorasu.

As a gain in the free agent market in the summer, the French midfielder seemed to have become dispensable after moving to AC Milan, but the Ligue 1 MVP is an out-and-out quality player, and when he plays well, Dorasu is even a ninety percent weakened version of Deco, who also has excellent passing skills. Balanced offensively and defensively, and able to help the team change the tempo. Taken together, these are undoubtedly a necessity for a midfielder to become great.

It is also due to the preparation of this substitution and Jiang Qi's design. AC Milan once again made the interval between games a little longer, which indirectly diluted the blood of Liverpool's counterattack.

And Dorasú's replacement of Seedorf on the field is also a kind of protection for Pirlo, because his position on the field is not the left side in front of Sleeping Skin, but behind Sleeping Skin, just like the back triangle that Jiang Qi discharged for Real Madrid, Dorasú is on the left, Gattuso is on the right, which instantly makes the barrier of the Milan midfield solid, and Pirlo is a little earlier. At a time when the state of the sleeping classmate is declining, it is Lao Jiang's right to use his pass to echo Kaka.

There is only one signal for the French to bring on the field, shrink the space!

Losing space to move and deliberately interrupting the rhythm by the rookie coach, Smitchell's long-range sneak attack after a minute was gone, and AC Milan stabilized in the shortest possible time.

In fact, with a 3:1 advantage, as long as Benitez's gambling tactical changes are restrained, the situation will be re-dominated into his own hands, but Stam's state in the face of Liverpool's impact makes Lao Jiang very worried.

Thereupon. He decided to get started with a first-hand effort to revamp the midfield.

Three minutes later, Jiang Qi made another surprise change, Serginho came on to replace Shevchenko, and the old Brazilian winger did not play in the left midfield. Instead, the formation was completely 4-3-3, with Crespo in the middle and Serginho on the left. And the right side is given to Kaka, of course, the Brazilian boy's position is more flexible.

Because compared to Crespo. Sheva's fulcrum role is not obvious, while the Argentine can hold the ball up front. The more balanced technique in all aspects, coupled with a brace in the first half, was also a deterrent to the Liverpool backline, and Serginho and Kaka used more speed to impact the Reds' backline, forcing them to split their energy to deal with it.

Efficient attacking style can make a difference, and this time the change to the attacking combination up front was quite successful, with Kaka avoiding Hamann in the middle and more flexible movement, and Serginho's sharp breakthrough forced Gerrard to refocus on the defensive side, and the game was not much in suspense at this point.

In the end, Crespo completed his hat-trick and the referee awarded a somewhat reluctant penalty before the end of the game, and AC Milan won the game 4-2.

――Of course, this is just what happens in the virtual space of the small theater.

Now the team on the opposite side has changed from the Reds to the Blues, and the only familiar face is Xavi? Alonso.

"I didn't expect you to guess it." , who was expelled from Ciascini in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals, returned to Milan's bench at the Estadio Altatuc.

The "guess" that the assistant coach uncle refers to is that Jiang Qi guessed Ancelotti's lineup in the Champions League final before the game.

Chelsea's most common formation this season has been 4-3-3, with the tempo of Marcos Alonso trailing behind, with Frank Lampard and Claude Makelele forming a barrier in front of Alonso, unlike at AC Milan, the Blues do not have a fixed midfield, but often play a trident.

Therefore, in the tactical preparation meeting of the Milan coaching staff, whether it is assistant coaches such as Tasotti and Ciacchini, who have worked with Ancelotti, or Maldini, a former disciple of Ancelotti, they all tend to believe that Chelsea will continue to use this most used formation in the final, but Jiang Qi does not think so.

The Blues' 4-3-3 is actually a formation designed by Carlo Ancelotti for the Premier League environment, with an inverted triangle midfield that can effectively limit the impact of opponents, and a front trident that is easy to tear apart the opponent's defence, but if the opponent is not a good English team, the suitability of this 4-3-3 formation needs to be considered.

Jiang Qi feels that with Ancelotti's usual steadiness and attainments in tactical design, in the face of such a decisive moment as the Champions League final, he may be inclined to the path of "controlling instead of defending".

The main purpose of "control instead of defense" is to fight for control of the ball, and to achieve the purpose of "control instead of defense", for An Fat Adult, the most familiar formation is called - "Christmas tree"!

In fact, whether it was Old Trafford in 2003 or Athens in 2007, Ancelotti lined up the Christmas tree formation and won the championship on the way to control instead of defending......

Sure enough, Istanbul's Altaturk Stadium confirmed Jiang's suspicions, and the Blues Chelsea appeared in front of everyone's eyes as the Christmas tree that Jiang Qi is most familiar with, but in many of them, Ancelotti made surprising changes.

One is the double midfielder in the Christmas tree 4-3-2-1, and the other is the right wing-back of the Blues, a man whom Jiang Qi and the Milan coaching staff had not thought of at all. (To be continued......)
