Chapter 134: The Battle of the Wealthy

Although Momo has known these things for a long time, he knows that this season of the Champions League is a moment full of miracles. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

But looking at the mighty AC Milan, looking at the Arsenal who came back to life in the group stage, Momo couldn't believe that he was really eliminated like this, which is simply incredible.

And at this time, the media can be called a sword and a sword, the two giants missed the semi-finals, one sent Laco and the other sent Chelsea, is this accidental?

Anyway, judging from the situation after the game, AC Milan first made a statement, losing is losing, but losing is fate, losing is losing in black technology, losing in... AC Milan always find an excuse anyway.

4-0, the score on the scoreboard at the Riazor Stadium shocked the AC Milan players, in fact, in the past 10 years of AC Milan's European history, although there have been proud, but several big defeats still leave a deep imprint on the team's shameful calendar......

1995/1996: 0-3 Bordeaux away

That season, AC Milan had the trident of Weah-Baggio Savicevic, Maldini and Costacuta in the backline, Baresi was old and strong, the midfield had Boban, Desailly, Albertini, it should be said that it was one of the heydays of AC Milan's squad in recent years.

The French side were not favored to meet Bordeaux in the UEFA Cup, Bordeaux were in average form in the league, and the game at the San Siro was not unexpected, and goals from Baggio and Erranho in the second half gave AC Milan a 2-0 lead, which was not a decisive scoreline, but it could put the Rossoneri in a good position.

However, on the road, the situation changed dramatically, with Tolo's opening 14-minute goal putting the Rossoneri in a tense state, and in the second half, Dugarry's two goals in six minutes gave AC Milan a bitter taste of a three-goal defeat and the loss of a two-goal advantage at home. In the summer of the same year, AC Milan bought Dugarry, who shone in this match.

2001/2002: 0-4 Borussia Dortmund away

In the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup, Inter Milan vs. Feyenoord, AC Milan vs. Borussia Dortmund, when the Italians were looking forward to the final of the Milan duo, the unthinkable happened. Former Udinese player Amoruso shone in a hat-trick in the first leg of a 4-0 defeat at Borussia Dortmund and Amoruso scored a penalty in the sixth minute, before the Brazilian's show began, in which he picked and unloaded, two feints shook Laursen and then scored with a powerful shot that was passed as a good story. He scored with a header from Antonio Contra just before half-time, before Heinrich added the icing on the cake in the second half as AC Milan suffered a 4-0 defeat away at AC Milan.

Back at home, AC Milan almost turned the tables around, which was enough to see the advantage of the two-legged match first, away and then home. It took only 20 minutes for Andriy Shevchenko and Inzaghi to make it 2-0, but the game was a stalemate, and it wasn't until the last minute that Serginho used a penalty to make it 3-0, but it was too late for Dortmund to pull a goal back in the final desperate attack.

2003/2004: 0-4 away Deportivo La Coruna

Needless to say, AC Milan's poor form, Deportivo La Coruna's excellent performance, and the Rossoneri's huge psychological baggage led to a big comeback that will go down in history.

Looking at the three heavy defeats, there is one thing in common: that is, the goal conceded in the opening 15 minutes, it seems that it is especially important to play an away game, hold the opening game, and wear down the momentum of the opponent. Three heavy defeats, three opponents are mediocre in the league, perhaps this will have some impact on AC Milan's mentality, such as the game against Dortmund, away from home, conceding 1 goal is not a disaster, but AC Milan is from the opponent's lead began to show impatience, frequent mistakes; And today's game, they were also unprepared for the momentum that Deportivo La Coruna showed at the beginning.

However, in those two seasons, AC Milan finally achieved their league goals, and in the 95/96 season, the Rossoneri finally won the title by eight points ahead of second-placed Juventus, and in the 01/02 season, AC Milan also won the Champions League for the following season with their strength in the final stage.

AC Milan lost 0-4, burying the Champions League semi-finals that had almost been obtained, I don't know what Berlusconi's mood is at this moment in the stands, and the prime minister's "curtain to listen to politics" finally brought the expected consequences to the Rossoneri......

"You have to play two strikers!" This is Berlusconi's request to Ancelotti, for Italy, this is no longer a secret, and even in a public program, Ancelotti's wife has a lot of complaints about it, Trappattoni, Mazzoni and others also had a big discussion about this, the coaches are all on Ancelotti's side, Berlusconi's "curtain listening" caused almost everyone's dissatisfaction, Galliani hurriedly came out to play a round: "The prime minister just expressed his wishes." However, this will can actually be understood as a "command".

At this time, Momo admires Ancelotti, you throw the pot to... It's on the head, do you still want to mix it up?

Whether to play double striker or double striker, it needs to be determined according to the situation of the team, the use of "double striker" games, AC Milan is not without classic battles, such as away against Roma, home against Regina, using double strikers, there are also extremely bad games, such as home against Chievo, home against Udinese, a game of good or bad, depending on many factors, formation is only one of them.

Limiting the "double striker" is undoubtedly equivalent to limiting the manager's tactics. In today's game against Deportivo La Coruna, for example, Kaka and Rui Costa were flanked diagonally behind Shevchenko so that Seedorf could put more power into the left side of the block, while in midfield, the inverted foot would have conceded fewer goals. In the case of a three-goal lead, strengthening defense and strengthening control is undoubtedly the best way, but such a plan has long been "blocked" by Berlusconi.

The tired AC Milan needed to be rotated, but at some point, Redondo, Brocki and others disappeared from the AC Milan lineup!

In fact, after the 4-0 defeat to Lazio in the Coppa Italia, Berlusconi called Galliani's mobile phone and lashed out at the performances of his substitutes, while the prime minister's instructions were conveyed to Carlo Ancelotti, who never used the substitutes again.

Later, before the game against Chievo, a reporter asked if there would be rotation, and Ancelotti replied cryptically: "Some players play less, which does cause problems, but they should understand the choice of the coach, for the club, whether it is the main team or the substitute, it is equally important." ā€

The main squad has played at a high level for a period of time, but the players are not "iron men" after all, and without proper rotation, Cafu, Maldini, Pancaro and others have declined to varying degrees.

In fact, it is not bad to use Brocki, Redondo and others, and it is with these players that AC Milan easily completed five consecutive wins in the make-up match against Siena; And it is such a lineup that eliminated Roma in the Coppa Italia, and is it a bit arbitrary to judge the gains and losses only by virtue of one away game against Lazio? If according to this logic, AC Milan also lost a 0-4 today, should the main players present today not play in the future?

As a club president, the enthusiasm for the club is understandable, but the club president is not a master tactician after all, interfering in the head coach's arrangement is tantamount to playing with fire, since the head coach has hired him, you have to trust him, even if his formation, substitutions will occasionally make mistakes, but overall, it will be much stronger than an ordinary person, Berlusconi should wake up.

The president of the club was of course not convinced by the news, so the next day, some newspapers wrote that the AC Milan coach had overtrained and caused the team to collapse. (To be continued.) )
