When Ibrahimovic and Robinho were standing in the middle circle ready to kick off, the two looked at Liverpool's half, and naturally they could see Qin Xiong standing in front of them on the right.

Ibu shrugged at Qin Xiong, seemingly vaguely expressing a depressed mood.

Since parting ways at Ajax, the pair have often met in the Champions League, and then? Qin Xiong is always the winner.

This is the first time Qin Xiong and Robinho have met in the Champions League since Real Madrid, and Robinho is also a little depressed.

Take a look at Qin Xiong, who has won the Champions League on behalf of four clubs, which can be called a brilliant resume.

The referee blew the whistle and the game began, and Ibrahimovic and Robinho threw away their distractions and concentrated on the game.

The formation of the two teams opened up to start an offensive and defensive confrontation.

Today, Liverpool and AC Milan in the midfield are a tough match, AC Milan after the absence of Pirlo, the attack can only rely on Seedorf to thread the needle in the midfield.

However, the aging Dutchman is becoming more and more lazy on the pitch and is clearly not suitable for top-level confrontation.

When Gerrard, Alonso, Mascherano and Kuyt, who has invested a lot in defence, run aggressively to form a joint defense, it puts a lot of pressure on Seedorf to possess the ball in the front court, and it can even be said that he can't get a foothold at all!

In the 5th minute of the game, Seedorf just received Flamini's pass in the middle of the front field, Gerrard stretched out a kick from behind, Seedorf immediately dialed the ball and turned around with experience, but as soon as he turned around, someone stretched out a foot diagonally to poke the ball away.

Alonso!

Seedorf has struggled to make consistent technical moves on the ball, and he is old, as old as the entire AC Milan team.

Liverpool were quick to attack, with Johnson rushing forward from the flank to receive the ball and pass it to Kuyt.

Against Antonini's defense, Kuyt and Raul completed the wall-to-wall linkup, but Kuyt was not the bottom. It's an incision!

After drawing Gattuso and Flamini back into the middle of the box, Kuyt didn't develop any further attacks into the box, but instead played the ball diagonally and the ball rolled to Gerrard's feet.

Gerrard didn't drag the slightest bit of mud and water directly out of the ball, a diagonal pass, and the football came to Qin Xiong, who was running inside.

Gattuso immediately rushed in. And it's an unexpected shovel destruction!

Qin Xiong will not be frightened by Gattuso, no matter whether the opponent is a butcher or a villain, Qin Xiong is no longer a fledgling boy, calmly knocking the ball with both feet to dodge Gattuso's tackle, and then cut cross-cutting to the middle and facing Flamini and then passing the ball diagonally to Raul.

Raul turned his back to the AC Milan penalty area in front of the penalty area and gently knocked the ball with his left foot.

Qin Xiong's feet kept rushing past Flamini's defense, and then rushed forward to touch the ball.

Observing before touching the ball is Qin Xiong's most normal habit.

Qin Xiong, who had planned to go directly into the penalty area according to his current way of playing, suddenly changed his mind because he saw Nesta.

Switch to other defenders. No matter how strong the strength is, you may be a little flustered, or disguised decisive, and go straight to the robbery!

But Nesta didn't, he was like a high mountain, and Eight Wind stood still in the most reasonable defensive position.

Even at the age of 35, the Roman king still relied on his experience to make the right decisions in defence.

It can't be said that Qin Xiong was cowardly, but Qin Xiong thought that the success rate of the ball into the penalty area would not be very high in combination with the situation in the penalty area.

Because Thiago Silva, who was deployed to play in the back, may be a defender's mentality. He dropped back deep in the first time in defense and went straight back into the box. This also helped Nesta to a certain extent, making Qin Xiong's breakthrough space smaller.

So Qin Xiong changed his original mind and chose to volley directly when he touched the ball!

The ball slammed into the AC Milan goal.

The long-range shot was a well-rounded shot, and Abbiati moved laterally to take the ball into his arms.

Liverpool's first shot on goal didn't test Abbiati.

AC Milan continued to attack, with Antonini providing an assist down the left and Robinhola picking up from behind. He cut inside on the left flank, and with his skillful foot, Robinho managed to get out of Johnson's grip, and Ibrahimovic slipped in behind Skrtel, who saw the opportunity to deliver the ball at his feet.

Ibrahimovic found himself surrounded as soon as he stopped the ball in the box.

Skrtel retreated towards the baseline and blocked the line between Ibrahimovic and the goal. Mascherano also returned in time to support the penalty area and blocked Ibrahimovic's right front.

At this time, Ibrahimovic quickly flicked the ball horizontally, followed by his calf and shot directly on the spot.

The ball flew through the gap between Skrtel and Mascherano but ended up deflecting off the ball!

Ibrahimovic played with a delicate technique at his feet, while Liverpool, for their part, began to play the style of opening and closing in the team's attack.

In the 13th minute of the game, Gerrard advanced in the middle, he broke through Flamini's defense in the change of direction of the ball, Gattuso's task today is obviously to stare at Qin Xiong, but the defense in the middle is unstable, Flamini is difficult to support, Thiago Silva is not strong in the situation, once there is a risk of losing in the middle, Gattuso can only grit his teeth and return to the middle.

As soon as he returned to the defense, Gerrard passed the ball diagonally to Qin Xiong's feet.

Qin Xiong had a one-on-one with Abate on the side, he stepped down the ball and broke through to the bottom line, Abate just turned and retreated, Qin Xiong suddenly paused, and then he saw Gattuso rushing towards him, so he didn't force a breakthrough again.

AC Milan were under a lot of pressure in the box.

Raul began to press in front of goal in the box, and Gerrard cut in to the front of the net to make it impossible for Nesta to ignore, and Qin Xiong sent a cross in place.

The ball flew over the heads of the two centre-backs and into the back of the box.

Kuyt pressed Antonini to head the goal.

He deliberately pressed the ball down in order to put it in goal.

Seeing that the football would fly into the near corner of the goal, Abbiati bravely pounced and knocked the ball out with one fist!

'Liverpool missed a great chance to score with a dangerous attack!

Kuyt's header from Qin Xiong's cross was of extremely high quality, but Abbiati made a wonderful save at a critical moment!

Both teams were able to threaten the opposition goal today and the game was not as conservative as we had hoped. ”

Yes, AC Milan is expected to be on the decline, and they will face Liverpool in the typical Italian way of playing at home, and Liverpool will be cautious in the first game due to the away team first.

But both teams were generally not conservative today.

Because AC Milan know that they will be lucky enough to go to Anfield, they can only pin their hopes of qualifying on the first leg at home. (To be continued.) )
