"Messi pulls to the middle, Fabregas passes, Messi takes the ball, Maldini gets close quickly, Messi takes the ball and turns, breaks through, oops, Messi is tripped by Maldini in the penalty area"

"Will it be a penalty?"

"Maldini's defense is indeed a bit too big, and the position where Messi was tripped is worth discussing, it should be said that it belongs to the scope of the referee's consideration, will this be a penalty?"

"Pletz gave Maldini a yellow card, but signaled that it was a foul outside the box, and gave Tottenham a direct free-kick, not a penalty, at this time AC Milan should breathe a sigh of relief, if Tottenham Hotspur is given a penalty now, it will be a death sentence for AC Milan."

"In the past period, Tottenham Hotspur's attack has improved a lot, AC Milan's defense is a little unable to keep up with the rhythm of Tottenham Hotspur, Maldini faces a short but very flexible Messi, he seems a little powerless"

"The Tottenham Hotspur players were obviously not very happy with the referee's decision because they felt that it should have been a foul in the box and should have been given a penalty, but the referee obviously did not intend to change his decision, smiled and shook his head to refuse, and who will Tottenham Hotspur let take this free-kick now?"

"The live TV camera was also specially given to the stands, this is the core player of Tottenham Hotspur, superstar David Beckham, if he is there, this free-kick position is really good, he takes the penalty, the success rate is very high, but now Tottenham Hotspur has no player in the team who can replace Beckham."

'It's Robin van Persie, Van Persie is coming to take this free-kick.

As Van Persie walked to the penalty spot, Pirlo happened to be next to Maldini and asked with a concerned face: "Paul, is it okay?" Is it okay? ”

Paolo Maldini shook his head at Pirlo and waved his hand, "It's okay, that kid is like a loach, very sliding" but as he spoke, he was visibly panting, it had only been about half an hour since the game, but he was already showing fatigue, after all, he was about to turn 39.

Generally speaking, when professional players reach the age of 30, their physical function has begun to decline, and if their physical function and condition are maintained a little better, it is quite rare to persist until the age of 35, but Maldini has maintained a very high standard even now, which is indeed very, very rare.

Thirty-eight-year-old Maldini, thirty-six-year-old Favali, thirty-five-year-old Australian goalkeeper Carachi, thirty-three-year-old Inzaghi, and thirty-year-old Odor, Gattuso and Ambrosini, it is absolutely unreasonable that seven of AC Milan's starting eleven players have entered the aging process.

In fact, everyone knows that Tottenham Hotspur has deliberately wanted to play a war of attrition with AC Milan since the first leg, because their player lineup is young and can afford it, because they ran out of energy today, sleep beautifully, rest for a day, and soon be alive again, but these old players can't

'We have to regain control of the ball, Andrea' Maldini looked at Andrea Pirlo.

In the past, their group of veterans were able to hold on, and a very important aspect is that AC Milan's tactics are to play slowly and quickly, which is somewhat similar to the Tai Chi in Chinese culture.

But now Tottenham Hotspur has the advantage of possession, and the tempo is directly accelerated by them, and at the same time, they keep pulling the overall formation of AC Milan through the active running and pulling of the players, and they have to keep running with Tottenham Hotspur.

Why do you say that football is the most physically demanding sport?

The reason is simple, not only because a football match is 90 minutes long, or even 120 minutes, not just because players run more than 10 kilometers per game in a major European league, but more importantly, the football game is full of speed sprints and switchback sprints.

It is also the most famous sport in the world, the sports consumption of basketball is indeed very large, if the consumption degree in a short period of time, such as an attack, or about 30 seconds as a unit for comparison, basketball will be greater than football, but if you count the whole game, basketball is definitely not as good as football.

Therefore, the tactics adopted by Tottenham Hotspur are also very simple, the main thing is to play fast, speed up the tempo, and do not insist on possession in attack, and the most important thing is to strangle Pirlo at this point, forcing you to be unable to effectively control the ball, resulting in a rapid conversion of the ball, through this fast-paced conversion of the ball, forcing your players to do more variable speed sprints and switchback sprints from front to back.

Because you see your team getting the ball, you always have to rush forward and attack, right?

If your team concedes another goal at this point, you always have to run back and participate in the defense as soon as possible, right?

Therefore, in every football game, as long as it is fast-paced, the physical consumption must be very large, which is also why Ye Qiu is always saying that the most favorable rhythm of Tottenham Hotspur is fast and slow, because slow is a kind of recovery, accumulation and brewing, and fast is the result of slowness, and it is also an outbreak after accumulation and brewing.

And the advantage of controlling the pace is that you can be fast if you want to be fast, you can be slow if you want to be slow, you can recover because you are slow, but the opponent does not have this power, because they can only be led by the nose by you and follow you involuntarily.

Pirlo shook his head helplessly after listening to Maldini's words, but did not say anything, but looked at Cesc Fabregas.

As soon as he gets the ball, Cesc Fabregas will stick to block him as soon as possible, forcing him to play quickly, while Pirlo used to be a striker, and his style of play is somewhat classical

In addition, there was a Seedorf and Kaka in front of him before, but now Seedorf has been taken down, and it is Ambrosini who has come up, so Pirlo can not respond much.

When Pirlo was helpless, Ye Qiu on the sidelines turned around and looked at Peter Brandt, who immediately laughed and nodded: "Maldini, Favalli, Kaladze, and even Pirlo, are almost the same, and the movements are a little unable to keep up." ”

Ye Qiu nodded, the moment Maldini defended Messi just now, it was obviously after the slow action, which caused a gap in the defense, and then after the first time he pasted it, he couldn't hold it because he moved too much, so he committed a foul at the front of the penalty area.

Looking at Roland again, the latter also nodded, "Pirlo's pass success rate in the last ten minutes is only UR. , his physical fitness is not good, the next thing is up to us"

After Ye Qiu listened, he walked to the sidelines, and at this time, it happened that Van Persie's direct free kick turned into an anti-aircraft gun, he slapped his forehead hard, and felt a disaster, after Beckham was absent due to injury, the team's free kick penalty taker seemed to be unable to keep up, Van Persie, Messi and even Ribery and others could take charge, but it was not very good.

On the contrary, it was the Welsh youngster Gareth Bale who performed very well, but whether it was at left-back or left wing, Gareth Bale obviously had no way to compete with Vargas and Ribery, so there was no way to put him in the position for the time being.

When Tottenham Hotspur walked back, Ye Qiu applauded the players on the field and gave a thumbs up, and then calmly sat on the sidelines, clasping his hands around his chest, patiently waiting for the opportunity.

As he said, the goal is about the flow of water, and now that Ye Qiu has dug all the ditches, it depends on when the water comes.

Cesc Fabregas was excited and worked hard for the game as he got a message from his parents before the game that Barcelona were keeping a close eye on him.

"I've heard they've started discussing the decision to call you back to Camp Nou," my father said with a smile.

In the eyes of the family, playing for Barcelona is a great honor, and they will all be proud to play for Barcelona.

Cesc Fabregas himself knows that the better he performs on the pitch, especially in the Champions League, the greater the hope of returning to Barcelona, who have always wanted only the best and the best.

But he respects Ye Qiu very much, so he is also meticulously completing the task given to him by Ye Qiu, which is to strangle Pirlo, and in fact, this task seems difficult at the beginning of the game.

On the one hand, because the support behind him was not in place, Modric could not help the team to fight for the initiative in the game steadily, so Fabregas had to retreat frequently, and it was impossible to limit Pirlo when running back and forth, so Pirlo played well in the early stages, and even AC Milan almost broke the goal of Tottenham Hotspur.

But then Ye Qiu took Messi's retreat route and let Fabregas concentrate on Pirlo, which was tantamount to liberating Fabregas, and he began to complete his task well, and gradually, as time went by, he found this task very easy.

It's not that he's too big, it's because, with more successful defending, Pirlo now passes the ball as soon as he sees him close, and he can feel Pirlo's breathing as time goes on, and his fitness is clearly out of pace.

Tottenham Hotspur's main players have all rested for a week to recharge their batteries and wait for work, but AC Milan has played Juventus after a bloody game with Tottenham Hotspur before, and then came to London non-stop, which makes them have no time to rest at all.

Looking at the fixtures, Tottenham Hotspur have taken advantage.

Pirlo's fitness has declined, and Cesc Fabregas has begun to find time to consciously devote more attention to attacking while completing the defensive and limiting tasks against Pirlo, which is a natural choice.

Tottenham Hotspur launched an attack, but as soon as the ball arrived, Modric's passing intention was too obvious, and before it passed into the 30-meter area, it was directly cut off by AC Milan's right-back Odor, his through ball was really not smart, at least you should take a few more steps forward and play a cover.

After Odor broke the ball, he was pressed by Ribery, even if it was only a symbolic delay, but he still passed to Maldini as soon as possible, and Van Persie also leaned in for the first time, and Maldini immediately passed to Pirlo near the center circle.

Pirlo is retreating to receive the ball, but when receiving the ball, the stopping action is a little stiff, which is caused by the deformation of the action after the physical consumption to a certain extent, so that the stop ball is a little big, and has been lying in ambush behind Pirlo, Fabregas, who was originally just to prevent Pirlo from turning around, saw this opportunity and rushed forward quickly.

Cesc Fabregas was very smart, and when he saw Pirlo stop the ball big, he cut in as soon as possible, blocking the ball between Pirlo and the ball with his body, and at the same time forming a ball protector while breaking the ball, so that Pirlo could not grab the ball again unless he committed a foul.

This kick came too suddenly, Gattuso rushed over as soon as possible, but Fabregas did not hesitate at all, because he knew very well that as long as Gattuso was approached, he and Pirlo behind him would form a front and back attack for the first time, then he was finished, so when he saw a white figure appear at the receiving point, he immediately passed the ball out.

"Okay, Fabregas passed, gave Messi, rushed forward, Messi faced Favali, passed again, beautiful two-by-one, Fabregas ran out of space, he dribbled forward, suddenly got up, shot from a distance"

I saw Fabregas open his arms and block Kaladze who wanted to rush from the side, but I saw that the goalkeeper Karachi was standing a little outside, because AC Milan was counterattacking by the defense just now, so Karachi was a little outside, obviously wanting to receive Maldini's pass, but who would have thought that suddenly Tottenham Hotspur broke the ball and counterattacked.

Cesc Fabregas's volley was about 30 metres from the goal, and he was very clever enough to hit a bounce ball that Carracchi reacted to and save, but the ball bounced off in front of him and slammed into the back of the net from under his outstretched hand, kissing the net closely

“GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

All the Tottenham Hotspur fans rushed out of their seats, grabbing the guardrail in front of the stands with excitement one by one, and let out their own shouts hoarsely.

"A shot from the goal, a full metre from Spanish star Cesc Fabregas, was a very beautiful counter-attacking goal, Tottenham Hotspur finally took the lead in the 37th minute to get the first goal against AC Milan"

After Fabregas scored, he quickly rushed out of the pitch, spreading his arms along the way, jumping over the billboards on the sidelines and rushing directly to the stands on the ground, and many Tottenham Hotspur fans reached out to hug the Spanish star tightly, his performance in the two seasons at Tottenham Hotspur was really good

"From the slow-motion replay, we can clearly see that Tottenham Hotspur's ground penetration is indeed very clever, and it is also very tacit, after Fabregas passed to Messi, he moved forward quickly, Messi also knocked back for the first time, and the two formed a tacit understanding between each other, and when Fabregas got the ball after inserting the ball, between Kaladze, Maldini and Favali, two very obvious gaps were revealed"

"It should be said that this shot was sudden, but Cesc Fabregas could have hit the goal himself, but he could also have sent a through ball to Van Persie or Ribery, no matter what choice was made, Tottenham Hotspur was almost nine out of ten in this ball, we can only say that AC Milan's defense gave Tottenham Hotspur too much space to attack"

The game took place in a split second, and everyone could only understand what was going on in slow motion, and it was only at a glance that everyone realized that Fabregas had so many options at that time.

'Cesc Fabregas's long-range shot was sudden, and Karachi obviously didn't expect him to hit the goal all of a sudden, so it was a bit unexpected, but Cesc Fabregas was very confident and he clearly felt it when he hit the goal, so he was ready to celebrate, and it was his 13th goal of the season.

"As the heart of Tottenham Hotspur's midfield, Cesc Fabregas has completely transformed this season, not only in terms of organisation and assists, but also in all competitions this season with l assists, while also scoring 13 goals himself, performing very well, both in attack and defence."

"Now that Tottenham Hotspur have finally opened the scoring, this is obviously not good news for AC Milan, because then they have to take the initiative to press out and play, and from the perspective of the game, AC Milan's fitness is at a disadvantage, if they press out again, the risk may be greater."

When the on-site commentator was analyzing, he saw Ye Qiu walking to the edge of the command area, hugging Fabregas, Messi, Ribery and other players who came back from celebrating from the sidelines, and at the same time making a gesture of forward pressure on the players, obviously signaling them to continue to strengthen the attack.

"It can be seen that Ye Qiu is not satisfied with the score of 0, after all, this is Tottenham Hotspur's White Hart Lane stadium, they should want to continue to expand the results and ensure that they can beat AC Milan steadily."

Once the players from both sides were back on the pitch, Plautz blew the whistle for the game to continue.

AC Milan restarted the game, but Tottenham Hotspur immediately rushed up like a tidal wave to start a scramble against AC Milan, Cesc Fabregas continued to press Pirlo, forcing him to play quickly, and soon, less than two minutes later, AC Milan made another mistake.

Ambrosini's pass was a bit slow, and Mascherano quickly left position, intercepted halfway through and slotted the ball straight to the right behind the AC Milan defence.

Messi crossed Favali and sprinted quickly, while Kaladze followed for the first time, and the two were fighting for speed.

Seeing that he was about to be at a disadvantage in terms of speed, Kaladze made a decision at the first time, fell to the ground and put a shovel, even if it was a foul, he had to stop Messi, but after Messi got the ball one step ahead of him, he suddenly made an emergency stop.

Kaladze slipped out of the tackle like this, and after Messi made a quick stop, he quickly turned from the bottom to the inside and entered the penalty area.

Maldini also returned to his position at this time, quickly followed up to block Messi, and after the Argentine teenager deceived Maldini with a skillful feint, he suddenly accelerated to the bottom, pulled out a position, and passed a close pass, and the ball passed in front of the goal.

Behind Maldini Odo, the most threatening Van Persie, but behind Odo, Ribery was unmarked, quickly rushed to the left post and gently pushed the ball forward.

Sometimes, it's so easy to score goals, as long as you are in the right place at the right time and he comes
