297. Old rivers and lakes
Remember in one second [for wonderful reading.]
Jiang Qi really didn't need to stand up, walk to the sidelines, wave his arms or shout loudly.
Behind the excitement of Chelsea's crowd, the mood of the AC Milan players did not even fluctuate even the slightest.
This is something that many people in the Altaturk Stadium don't notice, but that doesn't include Carlo Ancelotti.
If you dissect each of these confrontational movements, you can find three dimensions in it: time, space, and people...... Why add people to such a seemingly purely objective dimensionalism? That's because the change in the factor of "people" is a cog that affects all space-time exchange games, and the so-called tactics are nothing more than making a fuss in the two dimensions of time or space, but the "human" factor makes all this full of variables.
Ancelotti had hoped that the goal would affect the mood of the opponent and eventually correct the somewhat deformed situation, but now it seems that this goal has not been achieved.
After Chelsea switched to a back three, AC Milan still continued the tactics of strong center forward pressing, but it was by no means the strategy of compressing the defensive line to create a second point or even a third point like the opening game, but a two-center forward layered pull-away, one pressing, one as a fulcrum, this change is undoubtedly aimed at Chelsea's passively weakened back position.
As a midfielder, the Spaniard is first-class in combing and controlling, but the hardness is definitely not up to the level of the iron waist, so Ancelotti will ask Frank Lampard, Rivaldo and even Mutu to drop back more to echo Alonso when Hut comes on.
However, it is undeniable that despite Chelsea's rewriting of the scoreline, the scene has not returned to parity, and AC Milan still have the upper hand.
To make matters worse, Milan's players are still working hard to create free-kicks, and Chelsea are even more vulnerable when it comes to free-kick defence.
Towards the end of the first half, Carlo Ancelotti's right eyelid fluttered inexplicably, and then Didier Drogba squeezed away from his close defender and Terry fired a powerful shot, and although Frei struggled to keep the ball out, Milan's attack was not over as they won a corner.
Once again, a group of AC Milan headers burst into the Chelsea penalty area, which caused an uproar in front of the Blues, and even Sheva retreated into the box, leaving Mutu alone near the halfway line.
Overcrowding in the penalty area also does more harm than good to the attacker, and it is difficult for this kind of crowded, small movements and countless small movements to break free from the shackles and jump to the goal, so Milan's players have also begun to consciously pull Chelsea's defence.
Drogba was the first to pull it out, Terry hurriedly shouted for Lampard to defend, and the Ivorian dangled on the line of the penalty area, ready to receive Pirlo's pass and shoot vigorously, and then the crowded penalty area would really become a dangerous zone, and whoever blocked the kick would make Frei at a loss.
Toney also pulled to the flank, he had the advantage of height and easy access to the ball even from a tight angle, and in order to cope with the Italian, Hut followed and withdrew from the crowd.
Next up was Ambrosini, the Milan captain's favourite to cut in and jump with his header, and Stam didn't dare to slack off.
In this way, the forbidden area, which was originally chaotic, suddenly became a net, although it was still full of people, but there were still many gaps in the middle. Maybe people in the box can't notice it, but people outside the box can see the change all at once, like Nesta.
Milan's defensive gate was originally defending in the middle of the outermost part, responsible for intercepting the ball that was cleared from the box, as for the Romanian who was cruising around, Lahm was always vigilant, but after the Chelsea penalty area was pulled all of a sudden, Nesta suddenly subconsciously moved forward quietly for a distance.
His excellent positional sense allowed him to spot the blind spots of the opposition defending set-pieces.
Then, he subconsciously glanced towards the corner flag area, and Nesta seemed to catch a glance at Pirlo, who was standing there, and also glanced in his direction.
As an old man, Nesta instantly reacted to the meaning of his teammate's seemingly casual glance.
From a certain point of view, he and Andrea Pirlo are 'outsiders' who can clearly see what can be used in the Chelsea penalty area, and although the perspective is different, it is enough for Nesta to make a decision.
Therefore, he suddenly started to move into the box when Pirlo started to run, aiming for the blind spot in his eyes.
At this moment, Chelsea's defenders subconsciously looked at the target around them, and then watched Pirlo's penalty route intently and nervously, no one noticed that someone outside the box quietly sped up a few points, until the ball whistled and flew in, and Nesta, who slipped into the penalty area, made a big stride and sprinted!
The ball did not find Ambrosini at the forward point, nor Lucio who was next to the goal behind him, did not turn up the arc to Drogba at the edge of the penalty area, and did not go over the heads of everyone to Toni, who was flanking the back point, but slightly out, and seemed to become a little unpredictable.
But in the next moment, the elusiveness turned into premeditation, and Nesta jumped up and rushed directly to the top of Pirlo's pass, and the ball was smashed into the net like a hammer.
As a centre-back, Nesta can be a high-altitude bomber from set-pieces like Lucio, but that doesn't stop Nesta from knocking on the opposition with a header.
In his career, the number of goals can be counted on his fingers, but this one goal is undoubtedly worth a lot!
The scoreline was rewritten again, not the 2-2 that Blues supporters had hoped for, but the 3-1 that pushed them off the cliff again, and at a crucial moment in the first half as the whistle blew, the blow at this time could have been unpredictable.
On the Milan bench, Ciacchini was undoubtedly the most excited person, and the uncle replaced Lao Jiang to stage the most cool coach style in football at the moment - slippery kneeling......
Jiang Qi waved his fist, but his head was thinking about how Ancelotti's midfield would adjust.
An Fat's on-the-spot command may not be first-class, because he prefers to have time to think, to observe, to prepare, and the 15 minutes of halftime are enough to complete all this, so whether the second half can suppress the Blues' adjustment again is the most important, before that, what the rookie coach can do, in addition to speculation, is only to respond to all changes with the same.
The night in Artatuk was getting cooler, Jiang Qi tightened his shirt, the dazzling lights of the stadium dispelled the coldness that belonged to this moment, and he felt that he was close to the first milestone of his life! (To be continued.) )
