Chapter 166: Lost San Siro 2

Kaka's goal ignited the excitement at the San Siro Stadium, with tens of thousands of Milan fans cheering loudly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Kaka and his team-mates were celebrating wildly as he cheered and his goal made it 5-4 on aggregate, and they only needed one more goal to qualify for the final.

Yu Liang, who was standing in the backcourt, frowned and made an apologetic gesture to his teammates. It wasn't a tactical arrangement that he suddenly dribbled forward just now, but he was anxious when he saw that the first few minutes had passed and he hadn't been able to form a shot on goal.

In the tactical arrangement before the game, Ferguson asked for a steady counterattack in the first half, and launched a counterattack without conceding a goal. His and Fletcher's job at the back was to defend and limit Kaka's play.

5-3 and 5-4 may seem like just one goal apart, but the impact on the morale of both players is considerable. Yu Liang's impulsiveness has put United in a more passive situation, and if they want to change this situation, they can only try to score goals.

Ferguson, who had been sitting on the bench with his hands in his pockets, didn't care about the downpour, and walked directly to the sidelines with a frown.

The role of the manager of the team is not only reflected in the team's results, but also the source of strength for a team and the spiritual pillar of a team in many cases.

Ferguson knows the most important thing now is to try to score goals.

But before he can score, he has one more important thing to do.

That is to stabilize the morale of the military.

Playing away from home can be stressful, and even seasoned players may not be able to adapt to away games at times.

Not to mention playing in a stadium like the San Siro, in the midst of the boos of tens of thousands of fans, in such bad weather.

The continuous attack in the opening game was not smooth, and the opponent's continuous attack threatened their own goal, everyone's heart will become anxious, and this conceded goal is a good proof of this.

If the players were playing with anxiety right now, it would only get worse.

Walking to the sidelines, Ferguson called Ronaldo, who was closest to him, and said loudly in his ear: "Steady the rhythm!" Tell Paul to keep the pace of the game in check, we have time! Let the big guy calm down first! ”

Back on the field, Ronaldo quickly conveyed Ferguson's words to his teammates.

After the re-kick-off in the centre circle, Paul Scholes tried to tighten his grip in midfield, but it didn't work out very well.

The AC Milan players who scored a goal to close the score, if they want to take advantage of the victory, it is naturally impossible to give the Manchester United players the possession in the midfield. Amid the cheers of tens of thousands of fans, they launched a high-intensity press in the midfield.

Under the high intensity of the AC Milan players, the United players could only increase the speed of their passes.

Fresh off from a Gattuso tackle near the centre circle, Scholes opted for a return pass, hoping to use the depth of the pitch to ease the pressure.

But his ball had just passed to Yu Liang's feet, and Yu Liang directly chose to make a long pass.

With the acceleration of the rhythm of passing and control, under the high-intensity oppressive pressing of AC Milan, Yu Liang's heart became anxious again.

His long ball couldn't go over the top and Nesta kept the ball out.

AC Milan fought back again.

Pirlo's long ball into the box went over Brown's head, and Inzaghi slotted into the box and headed for the ball.

Rumble!

The San Siro Stadium is boiling again.

However, the goal that AC Milan were expecting did not materialize, and the attacking Van der Sar, with the help of Brown, managed to get the ball in front of Inzaghi and the United escaped.

One can make mistakes, but if one makes the same mistakes in a row, it is unforgivable.

Ferguson, who had been standing on the sidelines in the rain, watched Yu Liang's irresponsible long pass and sent the ball to Nesta's feet, and immediately roared, "Brain, brain, use your brain!" ”

"It seems that Ferguson is very dissatisfied with Yu Liang's performance in this game, but from the beginning to the present, Yu Liang's performance at the back is indeed substandard, and there are mistakes in two long passes in a row."

Duan Xuan, the commentator of CCTV, looked at Yu Liang's poor performance, and his face also showed a worried look.

"Hopefully he can adjust his form as soon as possible."

Yu Liang glanced at Ferguson, who was angry on the sidelines, and took a deep breath, he needed his inner peace now.

The game continues.

Van der Sar saw Yu Liang's impatient performance and sent the ball directly to Fletcher.

Fletcher quickly passed the ball to Scholes.

In the face of Pirlo, Paul Scholes shook him away in a change of direction and passed the ball to Cristiano Ronaldo on the right.

Cristiano Ronaldo received the ball and immediately attracted AC Milan's defense.

After Oddo blocked Ronaldo's breakthrough route, Gattuso, who rushed from the side, stretched out his foot directly and stabbed the football at Ronaldo's feet, and made reasonable use of his body while colliding, knocking away Ronaldo and completing the steal.

Rumble!

Seeing Ronaldo knocked to the ground, the Milan fans in the San Siro stadium immediately burst into cheers.

After breaking the ball, Gattuso once again showed his long passing ability, and a long pass accurately found Kaka in the middle.

After unloading the ball, Kaka shook off Fletcher in a change of direction.

After seeing Kaka easily get rid of Fletcher, Yu Liang immediately rushed to Kaka.

In the first round, he had already seen Kaka's performance. So while pounced on Kaka, he also had to watch out for Kaka's sudden change of direction.

Seeing Kaka suddenly change direction to the right, Yu Liang immediately moved a step to the right.

Kaka then dunked the ball to the left and then passed it out.

Andrea Pirlo receives the ball on the left and shoots straight from outside the box that goes wide of the post.

Manchester United attack.

Since the beginning, most of the attacks have been launched from the right side, but the effect has been minimal, and Ronaldo will basically fall into the double bag as soon as he receives the ball. So this time Scholes split the ball to Giggs on the left in the hope of opening up the situation from the left, but the result was the same, with Giggs also facing a double on the left. On the right, Odor and Gattuso froze Cristiano Ronaldo, and on the left, Jankulovski and Ambrosini froze Ryan Giggs. Even if Ryan Giggs were able to quickly move the ball to Scholes' feet, Scholes would struggle to open up the middle. This was thanks to the excellent defensive ability of AC Milan midfielders Gattuso and Ambrosini, who could easily keep an eye on Cristiano Ronaldo on the right without the ball and vice versa.

Scholes's attacking ability to cut forward is good, but vertical penetration is not what he is good at.

In the face of Gattuso's defense, they could not form a quick breakthrough, and they naturally lost the ability to sneak attack.

And caught in a positional battle, unable to get support, he was alone in the midfield.

Soon the midfield was firmly controlled by the AC Milan players.

Manchester United, who had lost control of the midfield, were again punctured in the thirtieth minute.

Under the continuous attack of AC Milan, there was a mistake in the back of Manchester United, Heinze passed back, and Vidic slipped when he cleared the ball and did not kick far. After Pirlo won the ball, he turned and brushed past the pressing Heinze and found team-mate Seedorf with a precise cross, Seedorf volleyed in front of the goal and the ball flew into the bottom right corner again.

"AC Milan scored again, Seedorf, Seedorf scored his third goal in this season's Champions League, a goal worth a thousand dollars! In this way, AC Milan changed the aggregate score to 5-5, and if this score is maintained until the end, then AC Milan will advance to the final with three away goals! ”

The aggregate score was levelled and the United players became more impatient.

However, in the remaining fifteen minutes of the first half, they were in a hurry to attack and made frequent passing errors, not only failed to form a threatening attack, but also almost conceded again.

After the whistle blew at the end of the first half, Yu Liang and his teammates left the court in a hurry. (To be continued.) )
