For Rome, they have run out of options.

Even though the atmosphere was relaxed at half-time, even if everyone was talking and laughing about Stam being knocked out, it was a fact that they were behind and they had to step up their attack if they wanted to win, or even just want to tie.

So after the start of the second half, Roma took advantage of the kick-off opportunity to launch a fierce attack on AC Milan, and the offensive wave after wave completely suppressed AC Milan, and they didn't pay much attention to the defensive aspect, even the central defender Ferrari occasionally stepped in, in order to achieve that goal - to equalize as much as possible.

Carlo Ancelotti sat in the dugout and watched the game.

At half-time, he expected Roma to do this, in fact, they have no choice, if it is at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, Roma may still be calm, seeking to attack slowly and looking for opportunities, but this is the San Siro, Roma are playing away, if they can't equalize quickly, they will have no chance at all.

It's a morale issue in a football game.

There is an old Chinese saying called 'one drum, then decline, three and exhaustion', in the football field is also universal, home games, players are often more adaptable, in the support of many of their own fans, they are full of fighting spirit, and away is diametrically opposed, it doesn't matter if you are behind, the most important thing is that you can't see the hope of equalizing when you are behind, if Roma can't quickly tie the score, as time passes, the closer to the end of the game, the more they have no fighting spirit, and then they lose the hope of victory.

But AC Milan are not underdogs.

Ancelotti kept his team defensive, but he also had to pay more attention to attack. Attacking is the best defense, as long as they can hold on, slowly start the attack, and in Rome for about ten minutes, they can regain control of the game and gradually take back the initiative.

The premise is to defend steadily.

This is very important, Roma are like a 'madman' right now, they don't care about AC Milan's attack, they care about their own attack, AC Milan can of course choose to put a lot of energy into the attack. That's the same as fighting Rome. If the opponent's defense is not good, and his own defense is not good, then a goal will not be an advantage.

So they won't do that.

AC Milan have a full line-up and the backline is the best front. They have a one-goal lead. There's no need to go head-to-head with Rome. They have a goal advantage, and as long as they don't make mistakes, the victory naturally belongs to them.

Right. Just don't make mistakes

Carlo Ancelotti sat firmly in the dugout, with a warm smile on his face, and seeing his expression, AC Milan's military spirit was more stable.

He did have faith.

In terms of attack, the current AC Milan squad is very strong, but there are still frequent problems, after all, the player's condition is not guaranteed to be always so good, even Shepchenko, who is in excellent condition, has times when he can't find the feeling of scoring goals, and in the midfield, Kaka is very talented and strong, but Kaka is not so mature after all.

But when it comes to defending, which team in the world is better at defending than AC Milan?

Although I dare not say that I am the first in the world, I am definitely among the top three in the world!

That's Ancelotti's confidence.

AC Milan's backline is full of stable generals, Stam, Maldini, Cafu, even if Nesta is injured, and Kaladze, these players have always been very stable, especially Maldini, Stam, Cafu, although the three are old, but the defender is not a striker, and stability is often more important.

The biggest advantage of AC Milan's backline is stability

Totti was in possession of the ball.

AC Milan had just completed a counter-attack, and finally the ball was blocked by goalkeeper Pellizzoli, and the football was back in the hands of Roma, and a few passes were quickly passed to Totti's feet. He dribbled steadily forward while observing the shape of the game.

As the captain of the team, the core of Roma, Totti controls the attack and rhythm of the whole team, and his table xiàn affects the table of the whole team, so every game, his pressure is very high, and many media and fans in the outside world have bad comments about him, for example, saying that he is a 'big mouth', always spewing out some bad words, and for example, saying that he is a ball bully, and his influence in the team is greater than that of the manager, second only to Sensi, and there are even more supporters than Sensi among Roma fans.

Totti knows all these claims.

But who can understand him?

He loves Roma, he has given all his love for football to Roma since he was a child, he wants Roma to be the best team in the world, he has been working hard for this, what he wants to see most is that Roma win the championship, all kinds of championships, that is his dream.

But among the selections of the champion and Roma, he would choose Roma.

He also wants the title, so he sometimes says things like 'I won't necessarily stay at Roma', but that's more to express his dissatisfaction with certain things in the team, certain teammates, because he feels that those things and players have affected Roma's appearance.

He doesn't want to be a ball bully either.

There is pressure to be the core, and the pressure is even greater when you are a ball player, because every time you don't show good, there will be a lot of people who stand up and scold you, as if you are a good person for granted, because you are the flag of Rome!

Totti can only smile wryly at the current situation, the only thing he can do is give his best in every game, he needs to not only work hard, but also calm down.

Just like now

In the opening five minutes of the second half, the team did not get any good chances, but AC Milan counterattacked twice and found a chance to shoot, so it will definitely not work like this, he has to calm down and observe calmly.

AC Milan are quick to defend and their four defenders are already in position and form a defensive formation, so if the team wants to break through the defence, it is not enough to pass the ball up front quickly. It's clear that the opposition is defensive, so all we need to do now is look for opportunities.

But Roma always have to attack, and it is impossible to be at the back just because the opponent's defense is solid.

Totti slowly dribbled the ball past the halfway line. Seedorf had already pressed over, Totti calmed down, looked forward calmly, and eventually tucked the ball forward.

This straight plug is quite exciting!

The ball jumped past Seedorf, passed behind Gattuso, and rolled straight towards Zhang Tiehan in front of him.

Zhang Tiehan didn't look back at all!

When Totti passed the ball, he ran towards where it was going to go, and when he got behind him, he just raised his foot to pass the ball and poked his other foot forward just to stop it.

Wonderful!

Many AC Milan fans exclaimed for this stop!

"Beautiful! Zhang is like having eyes on his back! "The San Siro commentator gave a rare hello to the Roma players.

After Zhang Tiehan stopped the ball. Without any hesitation. He just lay the ball forward, followed by the start and rushed forward.

"Rome's counterattack!" The narrator shouted.

The Roma fans in the stands also shouted excitedly, and they kept waving to cheer for Zhang Tiehan.

Let's go!

Seeing Zhang Tiehan receiving the pass so neatly and beautifully accurately, Drinel stood up directly from his seat. He's going to have to say hello to the stop. But he cares more. Zhang Tiehan rushed forward with the ball.

Totti's through ball was so subtle that it allowed Zhang Tiehan to get the ball directly, except for Mancini, who was too far forward on the wing. Zhang Tiehan was at the front of the team, and when he received the pass, he started to the AC Milan back line, which was the last line of defense for AC Milan.

Carlo Ancelotti was also a little nervous.

However, he did not believe that Zhang Tiehan could break through the Stam defence, after all, the first half had already proved it, and he was more worried about other Roma players, especially Cassano.

Where's Cassano?

Ancelotti glanced at Cassano and saw that Cassano was being defended by Kaladze, and he wanted to start and rush forward, but Kaladze blocked his start, and the card took his place.

OK

After reassuring, Ancelotti looked at Zhang Tiehan, who had already rushed forward more than five meters at this time and met Stam

Stam didn't rush over.

His defensive experience is too rich, Zhang Tiehan has already started, and he is easy to be shaken by a change of direction when he rushes over, Zhang Tiehan's speed is fast, his speed is slow, and any skill is useless in the face of too large speed gap.

He was calm.

As a central defender, calmness is a must, and if you don't calm down, you can put the goal in danger, which is why defenders must be steady.

Stam slowed down, taking small steps back.

He's waiting for the perfect moment.

Thinking about the experience of being knocked away in the first half, he felt very humiliated, and now is the opportunity to save face, he wants to deal with Zhang Tiehan alone, he wants everyone in the audience to know that he is very strong.

In fact, he doesn't need to say anything, the league has been played for nine rounds, the Champions League group stage has been played for three rounds, all AC Milan fans have seen his strength and accepted Stam's ability to become the team's main central defender at the back, but Stam doesn't think so, his time in Milan is too short, especially in the first half by the opponent, he has to do more to prove it.

Now is the chance!

Nobody thinks that Stam can't defend, he has proven it in many games, in the first half, in the eyes of AC Milan fans, Stam is effective defensively, and the big man of the thirteenth has nothing to show off under Stam's defense, so of course it is the same now.

Definitely able to hold it!

AC Milan fans have a lot of confidence!

Stam is also confident, he stared at Zhang Tiehan's feet, and now, there seem to be two people left in the whole stadium, one is him, and the other is Zhang Tiehan with the ball, they are about to meet, and they will decide the outcome in a moment.

This is where they decide the winner!

Come on!

Stam thought to himself, I want to let you know how good Stam is!

The distance between the two is getting closer!

When he got to where Stamm thought was most suitable, he suddenly stopped retreating, stopped, and then- lunged forward!

It's time!

Stam bent down and shoveled directly at Zhang Tiehan's feet!

……

Stam didn't know much about Zhang Tiehan...... No, it should be said that no one understands him except Zhang Tiehan himself.

In the face of other players, Stam's defensive method is right, but unfortunately, he is facing Zhang Tiehan, if he rushes over at the first time, Zhang Tiehan may be difficult to react, but he is slowly rushing up, when he stares at Zhang Tiehan's feet football, Zhang Tiehan is also staring at his feet, 'see through' ability gives him enough time to deal with any movement of Stam.

At the moment of Stam's tackle, Zhang Tiehan reacted and gently flicked the ball to the side.

The ball, rolled past Stamm to the left.

At the same time, Stam's feet had arrived, but Zhang Tiehan had given way to Stam's feet early, but he didn't have time to let Stam's body.

He didn't want to let it either!

Zhang Tiehan straightened his body and hit Stam directly!

……

Stam kept staring at the football, he saw Zhang Tiehan pluck the ball to the side, at the same time, Stam had no time to do anything, all he could do was to collide with Zhang Tiehan fiercely, block him with his body, and never let him pass him.

So he simply didn't scruple to crash into Zhang Tiehan.

Last time, the opponent collided from the side, and he was at a disadvantage, but this time, he shot first and went all out, and it was the other party who was knocked away, right?

Stam thought about it, with a small smile on his lips. He closed his eyes, clenched his teeth, and his muscles bulged out as he prepared for the head-on impact.

……

Two strong men.

Two strong men of one meter nine.

Two human giants slammed into each other!

At that moment, the entire San Siro stadium held their breath as if they were praying for the two giants on the pitch at the same moment, and they watched without blinking their eyes as the two monster-like people collided together.

Even if you just look at it, you can imagine how intense and ...... it is It hurts, and the on-site narrator gritted his teeth and exclaimed, "Oh...... Oh ......", the voice seemed to be in the stage of his passion.

"The two bumped into each other......"

Stam was dizzy from the impact, and he lay on the ground without any suspense, holding his shoulders and moaning, and he knew that he had been hit like that.

Zhang Tiehan barely stabilized his body, staggered forward two steps before relieving himself, and took a few steps forward to catch up with the football, there was no player around him who could stop him, the only thing that could stop Stam had fallen to the ground, he readjusted his center of gravity, his eyes were already looking ahead, and he immediately continued to rush forward with the ball.

In the stands, AC Milan fans exclaimed!

The Roma fans cheered too!

In the cries of the mountains and tsunamis, Zhang Tiehan had just entered the penalty area, and he concentrated all his strength to pick up his right foot and slammed it towards the football!

"Bang!"

A powerful heavy cannon with an unstoppable momentum towards the goal!

"Zhang !!"

The football volley rushed horizontally, and the goalkeeper Dida, who had just attacked, didn't have time to do anything at all, so he only subconsciously blocked to the left, but the football flew over his right side-

Dive headfirst into the net!

“Goooooooooooooooooooooooooal！！！”

The commentator of Rome TV raised his arms and shouted! (To be continued......)
