Chapter 170: Stam's Obsession

Zhang Tiehan crashed into Stam, which was indeed a foul, he was farther away from the football than Stam, and it was not within the reasonable range of collision from the side. However, the collision that occurred in the process of grabbing the ball, it is normal to say that the referee is more lenient and does not give a penalty.

But the Milan commentator thought the foul was bad!

Why?

Because Stam was knocked out sideways, he flew more than a meter, such a big man was knocked away by more than a meter, it was really a shocking scene, and the TV kept replaying the scene just now, and many fans watched it over and over again, and they felt shocking.

It's a pity that the referee is not from Milan, he didn't say anything at all, just gave AC Milan a set-piece, from the referee's point of view, he only cares about what happened, as for the outcome of the matter, how much effort Zhang Tiehan used, how far Stam was knocked away, then he didn't care at all.

AC Milan fans and commentators alike expressed their displeasure.

The Roma fans were satisfied, and they shouted for Zhang Tiehan - which would have made many people wonder, wasn't it just a foul? I need to refuel, as if Zhang Tiehan has done something commendable.

But think about it, their players bumped into each other and knocked the opponent's most powerful guy away, even if it was a football match, this is enough to praise, after the game they can proudly say, "Look at that group of Milanese girls, the soft and weak can't help but bump, Zhang just bumped lightly, and they flew...... Oh look, ~~~"

So there are a lot of voices cheering for Zhang Tiehan-

"Well done, Zhang!"

"Zhang! Sheet! Sheet! Keep going like this! ”

There are a lot of voices like that.

Some of Roma's extreme fans have completely become supporters of Zhang Tiehan, and in their opinion, the team is behind, no. Even if the team loses, they can't lose, and Zhang Tiehan's foul is in line with the ideal temperament in their hearts. Other Roma fans saw some hope in the foul - since Zhang Tiehan can knock Stam into the air, he must be much stronger than Stam, then he may have a chance.

Zhang Tiehan never thought that the original foul could also get the support of the fans.

If he knew, he would have fouled more...... It's tempting to knock all the players who get in your way off the field. Then he stared at Stam unkindly.

Stam was stared at.

But he still glared back, thinking about what had just happened, and his eyes were on fire!

……

Carlo Ancelotti stood outside the pitch.

His expression is very calm, how the Roma fans are, it has no effect on him at all, in fact, at the San Siro Stadium, Milan fans account for the vast majority, compared with tens of thousands of Milan fans. The voices of the Roma fans looked pitiful and could not affect Ancelotti at all.

Ancelotti was watching the game, and he was actually watching Zhang Tiehan.

Before the game, he said that AC Milan were interested in Zhang Tiehan, and that was not empty words, or smoke bombs before the game, in fact, Ancelotti never did that kind of thing, he was not like Alex Ferguson. I don't want to be Arsene Wenger, not like other coaches who are good at using the media to make a fuss. Will use the media to his advantage, he said that AC Milan are interested in Zhang Tiehan, in fact, he is interested in Zhang Tiehan.

A player under the age of 20 who scored 36 goals in League One last season came to Italy this season and scored 10 goals in nine league games. These numbers alone are enough to prove something.

This is heavily defended Italy!

In Italy, five goals in ten games can be called an excellent striker goalscorer, scoring 10 ...... I can't think of any player, any of the best strikers in history. None of them have been able to score more than one goal per game in the Serie A.

So Ancelotti is very interested in Zhang Tiehan, which may also be related to the AC forward problem - there are three people in the front line, but Shepchenko always has no good partner, whether it is Tomasson, or Crespo, who has just transferred to the team, is very average, and Inzaghi is frequently injured and is unable to contribute anything to the team.

It's okay when Shepchenko can play, but AC Milan has always fought on three fronts, and Shepchenko has to rest and can't play in many games, so the forward line has become the reason for limiting AC Milan's results.

Thinking about this, Ancelotti also felt a headache.

He's watching Zhang Tiehan's performance, and if this player is really good, as long as he can get up to date with the rising Italian star Gilardino, he will consider having the transfer department start to bring him to AC Milan.

But after more than 30 minutes of play, Ancelotti was slightly disappointed.

His appearance was poor and he couldn't break through Stam's defense at all...... Even just now, he could only rudely knock away Stamm, which was a foul, which also showed that his mentality was unstable.

"What player can make a difference in Stam's defense?" Ancelotti shook his head secretly, he felt that he had set too high a standard, after all, this young man was not yet twenty years old.

……

The game continues.

Roma insisted on defending and insisting on counterattacking, really speaking, if it wasn't for AC Milan's goal, Rome's overall table would be good, their midfield and AC Milan fought very well, and the defense at the back was also very tight, but the forward line was weak under AC Milan's defense - Zhang Tiehan couldn't play, Cassano could only run around.

This is the overall table of Rome.

It's the same now, it's not easy for AC Milan to break down Roma's defense, although Kaka scored the ball by himself just now, but it was a flash of inspiration for a star, and that's how it is for a big star, an occasional flash of inspiration will make the opponent helpless, but you can't always flash and flash, and when you don't flash, you're just an ordinary star.

The game was deadlocked, and it quickly went into halftime.

At the end of the first half, AC Milan went into the break with a 1-0 advantage at home, while Roma could only return to the dressing room with a regretful feeling of falling behind.

Half-time is precious for both teams.

Roma needed to make some adjustments and Drinel was back in the dressing room as soon as possible to cheer up his players and set up the tactics for the second half, which he knew he had to do, at the San Siro, on the home of the Milanese. When he is down by a goal, he has to make some adjustments to give his players some confidence, even if they are unnecessary, and he has to do it and put on a confident appearance.

That's what a manager should do.

For AC Milan, the players also returned to the dressing room. Stam thought back to the collision with a grimace all the way, and he felt like every teammate who looked at him was laughing at him, "Look at you, you got knocked ...... flying", they must have thought that way.

Stam was annoyed and asked Kaka, "Is that funny?" ”

Kaka was joking with Ambrosiki that the two had a good relationship with the team, but they were talking off the field. Completely confused by what Stam meant, he was a little dazed, "What's wrong?" ”

"I didn't ...... It's nothing. Stam quickly turned his head.

Why is this happening?

Stam was a little stunned, but then he realized - he felt that he was too embarrassed to be knocked into the air! For other people, you might be glad you didn't get hurt, but unlike him, he relied on his body to eat when he became a professional footballer. Over the course of twelve years, his skills continued to grow. The competition experience continues to grow, but the body has not grown much, of course, no matter how you train, it is difficult to increase much, but in the past 12 years. There are only a handful of people who can make him suffer physically in the game, and those guys are all savage big men, most of them can only rely on their bodies to mix in the low-level league, and only such a guy can make him suffer.

That Thirteen is clearly not.

He can be the main starter of Roma in the Italian Serie A. That in itself proves that he is not the type of player who relies entirely on his body, not to mention, he is also a striker and has scored a lot of goals.

But Stam just suffered!

A centre-back who was knocked off by a striker...... Especially since this central defender is still himself, Stam is embarrassed to think about it!

He was not convinced.

It was obviously a foul, although he was the one who was knocked into the air, but the position of the thirteenth kid was more advantageous - he was rushing from one side, and he jumped up on the spot, the other party had a heart, he was unintentional, and it was normal to be knocked away.

He said he said something about it, but none of his teammates talked about it, and he couldn't have taken the initiative to say to others that 'it was just an accident', which would be stupid.

Stam could only hold the matter to himself.

The more you hold back, the more uncomfortable it becomes......

Intermission, fifteen minutes, time passes. Stam kept praying, and the more this happened, the more he felt that time was slow, and he didn't even know what Ancelotti said, just thinking about the time, thinking that he had to save face in the second half.

……

No one at AC Milan has been talking about Stam being knocked off, but there is a lot of talk in the Roma dressing room.

It's not that they deliberately talked about it, it's just that Stam was knocked off...... That's an amazing thing in itself, you know, it's Stam, even though he's playing in Serie A for the first time, but the whole world knows how strong Stam is.

That's a big guy, a fierce man...... Even beasts!

But Stam was knocked off, and they couldn't be amused when they thought about it.

"Zhang, you're so good, I watched Stam fly out, and he was like being hit by a big truck......"

"Yes, yes! That's just beautiful! ”

"Stam May? God, you're disgusting......"

"Maybe Danielle has a different taste!"

"You're all disgusting...... It was really gorgeous, spectacular, yes, spectacular, I didn't see it at the time, but then I glanced at the big screen and noticed that the big screen in the stadium was played back once, and they were really not afraid of being embarrassed! ”

"There will definitely be a report on the news tomorrow!"

"There must be, Stamm! I saw that he was a little scared, but he was so easily solved by Zhang......"

That's what a group of people said.

If Stam heard them say this, he would definitely vomit blood in anger, of course, the Roma players don't care at all, they are opponents, and it is already very face-saving to say this to their faces, and they say some bad things about AC Milan players behind their backs, which is purely a correction of rest time.

Drinel was still thinking about how to mobilize the atmosphere of the team so that everyone did not have too much pressure, and seeing this scene, he felt that he did not need to do anything.

The atmosphere in the locker room is relaxed, and when I return to the playing field, I guess it will be very relaxed.

This mindset is good.

There's no need for him to talk about the game again.

……

Until leaving the dressing room, no one from AC Milan said anything about Stam being knocked off.

This is the protection of AC Milan players from their teammates, in fact, it can make Roma players the talk of half-time, and AC Milan players naturally want to talk about it, but Stam is their opponent and they know that they should not make fun of their teammates.

While Ancelotti kept talking, seeing the expressions of the others, Stamm couldn't help but stand up and say loudly, "Laugh as much as you can!" After the game, you can still laugh, but that's laughing at the number thirteen kid, not me, and I'll make him suffer in the second half! ”

But he didn't have a chance to say it.

The break had passed, and the AC Milan players walked out of the dressing room one by one, and Stam was alone, he didn't talk to anyone, just walked out gloomily.

Maldini patted him on the shoulder, "Don't take it personally. ”

Stam was stunned, and immediately understood what Maldini was talking about, which made him feel very comfortable, he was in his thirties, he was someone else's predecessor on the court, no one would come to comfort him, but Maldini could definitely be called his senior, especially Maldini was also a defender, and the two had a lot of common language.

Maldini's words warmed Stamm in a way he hadn't experienced in years.

"Thank you." Stamm said.

At the same time, he is even more determined that he must thwart the opponent in the second half!

This is the only way to send a powerful response, and only in this way can he really let out a bad breath, especially when he thinks about the way the thirteenth stares at him, Staham feels angry, that is contempt and disdain, can there be any players in the world who can despise and disdain him? But the other party is qualified because he knocked himself into the air...... Oh, it's this again, you must get back face!

When he walked onto the pitch, Stam's face was not ordinary...... (To be continued......)
