Chapter 262: Impossible

The restarting game is still a contest of will and patience. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

AC Milan have a bit more depth in their squad and have the advantage of being at home, so fitness issues don't look like much of an impact.

Arsenal are all veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time, and Youmo's departure due to injury did not make them mess up, not to mention that people are back.

The same is true for tactics.

AC Milan began to use high-altitude bombing and long-range shooting as a mixed punch, but unfortunately the soup was not changed, and all the routines were used old.

Arsenal's side is still constrained by the influence of the field, and the rapid counterattack cannot play with speed, and the positional attack lacks a figure like Youmo who can break the balance by himself, and can only linger in front of the Italian national defense.

The situation is so clear that the layman can see the problem.

It's time for a change!

In the 75th minute, both sides used up their second substitutions at the same time, AC Milan replaced Albertini with Andrea Pirlo and Arsenal replaced Grimandi with Rosicky.

The tweaks on both sides were played in midfield, with the former using fresh blood to stimulate the already routinely modified, and the latter replacing the attacking playmaker with a more aggressive master.

There is no doubt that Rosicky is more famous than Pirlo and much stronger on paper. The Czechs have made a big difference in Arsenal's 67-game unbeaten run and 16-game winning streak. If it weren't for the frequent injuries, this kind of big scene would definitely not have been put on the bench by Wenger as a surprise soldier.

In contrast, Pirlo's resume is mediocre, and he belongs to the kind of rising star who has just made his mark at the big club, and has not yet qualified to match his opponents.

The contrast is so stark that even the layman can see it at a glance. So when the substitution cards were lit up and the substitutions on both sides were carried out simultaneously, the cheers on Arsenal's side were obviously louder, and they once overwhelmed the applause of AC Milan fans.

You Mo's private cheering group has come out of the fidgeting and can watch the game in a down-to-earth manner, so it is natural to have a discussion at this time.

Surprisingly, the vast majority of them have an impression of Andrea Pirlo, who is generally considered to be an extraordinary son and that Arsenal cannot afford to be careless.

Yao Xia was emotionally moved when he heard this, and turned his head to ask the master for advice, "I didn't expect them to do their homework, it seems that Arsenal still can't take much advantage?" ā€

Lu Wei was noncommittal on his face, and he didn't answer in a hurry, but Li Juan became a habit of stealing the scene, and said impatiently: "What, a bunch of fuss guys, Rosicky is the core, the offensive core, Pirlo can compare?" ā€

Yao Xia studied under Lu Wei, treated the lesbians very patiently, and said unhurriedly: "Arsenal's problem is still with the boss, no matter how strong Rosicky is, he is not the kind of person who single-handedly picks up the opponent's entire defense line." Without the strong point of the boss in the offense to attract firepower, the opponent's defense will be much easier. In addition, there is always water on the site, and the ground cannot be walked, so the threat is naturally greatly reduced. ā€

After that, he glanced at the audience and confirmed that the other party was listening carefully, and added: "AC Milan does not need major surgery, the game has reached this time period, and the physical strength and concentration of both sides are declining. With just a slight change in attack, the effect is enough to threaten the Arsenal goal! ā€

Li Juan didn't hear it, and pouted and didn't speak.

Lu Wei turned his head and pointed to the field.

'Both sides are trying to control the midfield, but AC Milan are just making a small fuss, and Arsenal are making big moves.

……

Lu Wei did not expect badly, Wenger did not put Rosicky in the forward position to feed Henry, but retreated and became an attack playmaker!

Meanwhile, Wiltord and Thierry Henry also retreated to join the battle in midfield!

No Front!

Arsene Wenger didn't hold it up at all, and with a wave of the flag, the team set up a strikerless formation!

Although You Mo still honestly stays in his own one-acre three-point land and does not come out, and the team lacks a fierce general in the midfield, but it is the only thing to learn about group beating with more people and less bullying people, and there are obvious advantages in both offense and defense. Even if it doesn't pose a threat right away, it's enough to reduce the threat of your opponent a lot.

What's more, the midfield configuration of the two teams is very different, and Arsenal has an advantage in terms of player strength, and there is no pressure to overwhelm the opponent.

So when the game time was close to 80 minutes, the substitutions of both teams achieved immediate results!

It's just that Arsenal's side has changed from passive to active, and the offensive and defensive ends are becoming more and more balanced, while AC Milan's side has changed from active to passive, and can only hope for defensive counterattacks.

Considering that Inzaghi, who had just come on the pitch, was an out-and-out dangerous man, the Arsenal players did not hold up big, and the overall formation remained very compact. AC Milan's players also had no intention of underestimating their opponents, dropping back quickly after losing ground in midfield, building a fence and waiting for a counter-attack.

After going back and forth, the two teams just changed their offensive and defensive roles, and the balance of the game was still unbreakable!

As time progressed to the end step by step, the expected lore did not appear, and the 1:1 score seemed to be locked in a safe, and the thunder could not move!

Despite this, Arsene Wenger's substitutions and tactical changes were unanimously recognized.

After all, it seems that the advantage on the field is obvious, but the weather is not beautiful, and the field situation is too bad, so he did not play the sharp attack in the past.

In fact, throughout the game, Arsenal's tactical arrangement is still not lagging behind, Lauren's slip is just an accident, and it is a bit reluctant to question Wenger's coaching level.

So when the score of 1:1 was maintained until the final whistle blew, the fans on both sides had no regrets, and the cheers were still higher and higher.

Youmo's private cheering group was equally satisfied, but they were a little worried and couldn't speak.

Compared to the previous two finals, Youmo's performance was not active enough, except for that goal and flying rescue, the performance at other times was lackluster, which really made people worry about his physical condition.

Was it because he was tired from a long run of more than 90 meters, or was he injured by hitting the goalpost?

Or neither, just waiting for an opportunity?

No one can answer such a question, as an audience, a big-name audience representing the image of the country, they can only keep their worries in their hearts and still talk and laugh freely.

"It's a bit of a pity, there's nothing to regret, both sides played at their true level."

Before the start of extra time, Zhang Xiaorui concluded: "It's just that due to the impact of the weather and the home game, AC Milan has the lead, and the chances seem to be more numerous. Although Arsenal has the advantage in strength, it is a pity that the luck is not good, God refuses to help, and extra time should be acceptable. ā€

Everyone who said it nodded straightly, but Li Jingyu shouted: "It's all a bit of a fuss, let's talk about it, which side has a better chance of winning in overtime?" ā€

Zhang Xiaorui was just about to speak, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw the master and apprentice who were communicating, so he changed his words and said: "The winner of this game is still the boss's play, who do you think knows the boss best among us?" ā€

This kind of question is difficult for anyone, Li Jingyu turned his head for the first time, and called through the two of them: "Yao Xia, Yao Xia, call Yao Xia, the enemy is found here, prepare to aim at the target!" ā€

As soon as the words came out, someone couldn't help but whisper a reminder, "It's wrong, right?" ā€

As a result, I didn't expect Lu Wei's ears to be very pointy, and he happily said: "That's right, my understanding of your boss is based on the previous work together, and there is nothing worth showing off." It has been three years since they were separated, and they don't know him as well as Yao Xia. ā€

After that, he added: "They are people all the way, and they can feel each other's thoughts with their hearts." ā€

As soon as the words fell, there was silence, and everyone looked at Yao Xia thoughtfully, as if admiring a piece of porcelain that had just been baked.

Why did a clay that looked like nothing brighten become a sparkling work of art?

Is it because it can withstand high temperatures and high pressures?

Or are the giants not unattainable?

"I'm a little nervous, I'm not right, don't trouble me."

Yao Xia was as magical as they imagined, sweating on his head under his eyes, and his mouth was not very neat.

But the idea is different.

"The boss looks like he's working hard, but he never pushes himself."

"If you feel that the state is not good or even difficult to persevere, you will definitely take the initiative to communicate with the head coach, and you will not affect the team's tactical arrangement because you don't want to be replaced."

'So in my opinion, the purpose of the striker formation is just to keep the game balanced, and it was Wenger's initiative to make adjustments to ease the pressure on him.

"It's the same with the boss, the fullback is played as a central defender just to save physical strength and save the chain at a critical moment!"

"Wait and see, overtime will definitely not end in dull time!"

……

The 90-minute absence of a winner was expected by many, including the penalty shoot-out, as well as in many pre-match predictions.

This is the conclusion reached after a comprehensive comparison of the situation of the two teams, and although no one can guess the process, many people are quite proud of the result.

The prediction is very accurate!

And so the next prediction followed.

Which of the two teams has the better chance of winning in extra time?

Yao Xia didn't say anything to death, it seemed that he was a little lacking in confidence, but in fact, it was a reflection of the soaring tactical level.

The most common mistake newcomers make is to take things for granted, whether it's pre-match preparation or during the game, and always pin their hopes on wishful thinking.

Actually?

The most important thing for a master to make a move is to see the speed and tactical execution ability of the move, not to be more magical than whose tactical design is more magical, and can bite the opponent's seven inches as soon as he comes up!

Because the situation on the field is ever-changing, any tactics prepared before the game may go wrong as soon as they come up, and even the donkey's head is not in the horse's mouth!

Especially the two giants who have no secrets, all the strengths and weaknesses are in broad daylight, counting on the programmed tactical design to take the initiative everywhere, it is inevitable that some people underestimate the world famous coaches who can swing freely in the giants.

Yao Xia didn't underestimate them, and they didn't underestimate each other, so each side entered overtime with a substitution.

At the same time, it rained heavily for two hours, and finally began to breathe!

Variables suddenly appeared, the alarm suddenly sounded, AC Milan up and down like a big enemy, as soon as the opening of the defensive counterattack posture is ready to fight!

Arsenal, however, seemed to be involved in the inertia of thinking and forgot what they were best at attacking, and they were still repeatedly reversing their feet, advancing slowly, without the slightest intention of speeding up.

What is this for?

Don't know that time is precious?

The opponent is not heavily deployed in the midfield, is it interesting to still fall to the feet in the midfield?

Are you still in the mood to play a game of "don't let your opponent touch the ball for five minutes"?

No, who is in the mood to play the game, the Arsenal players got the news before extra time began.

"I was hit by the goalpost very badly, only to find out that my legs were blue. I guess I have to rest for half an hour, you have to work hard! ā€

You Mo's acting skills are not covered, and the bruises on his legs can't be covered, so as soon as the words came out, they immediately became holy decrees, including Wenger, and they made a decision at that time.

Hold the ball first, stabilize the rhythm, and wait until the halfway point of overtime to exert your strength!

In fact, this is not an attacking player, the involvement in the attacking organization is only a little higher than Lehmann, and apart from set-pieces, whether the team can score or not has little to do with him.

However, in order to be foolproof, the Arsenal players would rather play conservatively than let him repeat Lauren's tragedy!

After all, his side is the opponent's main direction of attack, and because the injury has affected his physical condition, it is easy to become a breakthrough.

Compared to their opponents, they don't take the result of the game to heart, and before the game is over, the process is the most important thing, and you need to feel it to continue to improve yourself.

So they don't feel that their time has been wasted, but they feel that it is more comfortable and more in line with the style of a wealthy family!

It's just to defend the Champions League, what's the hurry, little CASE!

As a result, the benefits of the gradual disappearance of the water on the field were ignored by them, and everyone focused on the control of the ball. Even if they couldn't continue under the interference of the opponent, they didn't mean to press in a high position, except for the guys who were defending frontally, everyone else rushed back!

Such an unenterprising performance confused the opponent, the AC Milan players pressed out to attack, and neither did they continue to camp in the backfield, and they were all confused for a while, and even Ancelotti couldn't help but turn his head and take a closer look at the opponent.

Unfortunately, there was nothing to be found, and Wenger's gaze was very focused, as if he was enjoying a wonderful performance!

Actually?

Both sides refused to speed up, the ball slowly soared under their feet, and they couldn't reach the front court 30 meters in half a day, how could there be any excitement?

Considering that the physical condition of both sides is not optimistic, it is reasonable to be cautious.

However, in contrast, Arsenal's side can obviously speed up but play extremely conservatively, and it seems likely that they are delaying time because they are unable to do so, hoping for a penalty shoot-out.

AC Milan have clearly chosen to be cautious because of their fears, and there is no serious fitness crisis. Especially Inzaghi and Pirlo, who came on as substitutes, have an unprecedentedly strong desire to fight, not to mention that the opponent is so unbearable!

So halfway through the first half of extra time, the Rossoneri players came back and started to pick up the tempo!

Unlike the previous two times, this time the ground offensive became the main focus, and the three-dimensional offensive became the long-awaited feast. Soon, the dazzling coordination quickly ignited the entire San Siro Stadium!

In the midst of the mountains and tsunamis, Pirlo was like a fish in water, and Inzaghi was haunted. In just three minutes, they have found continuous opportunities in the opponent's dense defense, and jointly contributed three shots on goal!

The imaginary alarm was pulled in the wrong place, and Arsenal supporters were suddenly half chilled.

How so?

It's understandable that you can't attack it, and if you can't defend it, what's the play?

Isn't it a little bit of hope?

Is it just such a suffocating loss?

"No, it can't be, it can't be!"

In the silence, Yao Xia suddenly became excited.
