281. Stroke of God

The boos at the San Siro were not so much due to Mourinho's line-up with the word "conservative" written on paper, but rather because of the hints on the broadcast combined with the fans' intent to put pressure on the visitors.

But in any case, Mourinho's tactics were expected by Jiang Qi in advance, and furthermore, it was directly driven by the Champions League knockout stage first home and then away fixtures, in this two-legged cup competition, as long as the first leg can be away from home, then after returning to home, the players' confidence will become different, which is a very subtle influence, but the home and away sides know each other.

Therefore, Jiang Qi's starting lineup is not easy to arrange.

He thought twice and finally decided to use the best players in the team at the moment.

Although it is a home field, facing Mourinho's Real Madrid, in order to win this battle, Lao Jiang weighs and repeatedly feels that the role of state is higher than tactical arrangement, after all, the executor is the most important.

Cech has been in quite consistent form since his move this season, and standing at opposite ends of the pitch with a long-established goalkeeper like Casillas has at least given Jiang Qi a lot of confidence.

In comparison, in terms of the staffing of the three lines, it is the back line that is the easiest to discharge, and the duo of Nesta and Lucio is in their prime, and since the Brazilian joined the team last season, the two have become more and more tacit, and they have experienced countless big scenes, and they can fully gain the trust of Lao Jiang.

After nearly two seasons of training, Lahm, the future captain of the German national team, has an excellent performance at both offensive and defensive ends, with fast speed, skilled skills at the feet, stable crosses, and a long-range shot, which are all things that Milan fans talk about on the offensive end, and on the defensive end, although his physical condition is not outstanding, his low center of gravity and flexible change of direction are not at all inferior when facing various wingers, and as Germany is constantly strengthening his strength practice, His ability to fight is no longer as obvious as his height.

Ramos has been hailed by various media as AC Milan's best signing in the past summer, almost innate physical talent, coupled with the careful craftsmanship of Milan's coaching system, the Spaniard not only shines on the club's platform, but also is photographed by the old coach Aragonés and begins to emerge on the stage of the national team.

What gave Jiang Qi a headache was the midfielders in this game, Pirlo, Gattuso and Ambrosini were all in good shape, but in this game, Lao Jiang was ready to attack instead of defend and faced the problem of choosing one of the three.

On the contrary, most of the offensive players in the team are in mediocre condition, which makes it even more difficult for the rookie coach......

Regardless, when the San Siro stadium radio came out with familiar names from Milan fans, the fans responded with waves of applause and cheers.

"Andrea Pirlo!"

"Raphael van der Vaart!"

"Frederick Ljungberg!"

"Robin van Persie!"

"Didier Drogba!"

"David Villa!"

Jiang Qi gave this game the most unsatisfactory ending, his own team could not break through Real Madrid's goal, but based on the level of trust in his own defense, Lao Jiang felt that even a 0:0 game was acceptable.

But accidents always come when you are not prepared, and just after more than 20 minutes of stalemate games, Nesta fell to the ground during a competition with Senna for a header, and then the team doctor who trotted into the field made a substitution gesture to Jiang Qi......

"Uh......", Nesta's injury was so sudden that Jiang Qi hesitated for two seconds before waving his hand to call for Mexes to warm up.

When the stretcher carried Nesta out of the field, Jiang Qi hurriedly approached to ask the team doctor.

"It's a recurrence of an old injury." The team doctor pointed to his back.

Nesta's back injury is considered to have accumulated over the years, Jiang Qi is familiar with this history, so he will naturally control the number of appearances of the Milan defensive stalwarts, and set a detailed physiotherapy training plan with the Milan laboratory and medical team, but he did not expect it to break out at the most critical moment......

Time was pressing, and Mex, who was a substitute centre-back, only did a simple set of stretching exercises under the arrangement of the fitness coach to avoid straining the players, and then was pulled to the sidelines.

Lao Jiang knew that he had to cheer up Mexs at this time, and walked over and put his arm on the Frenchman's shoulder, "Philip, you only need to watch your position after you get on the field, Fernando Morientes hands it to Lucio, you just need to make up for his back, when attacking the set-piece, you and Sergio take turns to go up, remember your running position when we practice tactics!" ”

The Frenchman tightened his headband, clenched his fists and nodded, then took advantage of his throw-in opportunity to run onto the pitch.

But one accident is often a foreshadowing of another.

Just three minutes after Mex's play, the score of the game changed, but unfortunately it was not the home team AC Milan that changed from 0 to 1, but Real Madrid who posed in the San Siro in a "you come, you come".

The goal is simple to describe, but the route is bizarre.

Figo, who appeared on the left side of the game, received a pass from Cambiaso in the midfield, and when he forced the ball into the Milan penalty area, he went straight to Morientes who was leaning on Lucio in front of the penalty area, and Figo himself accelerated to the left side, which would have been a typical routine of hitting the wall and attacking on the side, but Morientes had already put on a posture of passing the ball to the left side, but the ball seemed to be kicked by mistake, and the football touched his outside instep, and finally flew out in a somewhat different direction, It's a lot like the students who shoot hard and end up with the ball flying to the corner flag.

But the ball was rubbed by the outside of Morientes's instep, not only did it deviate a lot, but even the ball itself drew a parabola, which easily crossed the heads of the two Milan central defenders......

And when Mex, who had been slightly behind in his position, turned around, a white figure had already caught the trajectory of the ball like an arrow from the string and chased it over!

The fans fell silent, and when Deco cut diagonally behind the Milan defence, everyone understood that Morientes' pass just now was not a mistake, but a rather imaginative, quite delicate no-lookpass!

He sideways to the goal but had already observed the situation of the Milan defense behind him, and then used Figo's running position to cover himself, and his footwork was controlled to the pinnacle, and the suddenness of this pass was vividly interpreted, but Deco seized this opportunity alertly, and after leading the ball smoothly, he simply shot low into the near corner of the goal, the angle was tricky, and the power was strong enough, although Cech tried his best to save, he couldn't reach it......

1:0, AC Milan conceded a goal at home, and Jiang Qi's face became more and more solemn.

On the sidelines, Mourinho's cold face was still paralyzed, and his expression remained unwavering for a hundred years.

In the VIP box, Florentino could no longer find dissatisfaction in his eyes, and was applauding reservedly......
