Chapter 57: The Last Battle
Albertini, the former Milanese brain, a true master of the art on the football field, and the younger fans really watched his performances on the green field, mostly through memories and narration of others.
A wide field of vision, excellent game reading ability, unusually good control of the pace of the game, and accurate and lethal mid-range and long-distance passes are all the magic weapons of AC Milan and the Italian national team.
His "Albertini-style defoliating ball" has left an indelible impression on the fans, but I don't know if Weishenme always has something to say, maybe because of his loyalty to Milan, maybe his temperament and elegance on the pitch, maybe his contributions to Milan and football itself, maybe ~~~~~~ others.
He is not Baresi or Maldini, but no one doubts his loyalty to Milan, which can be seen from his helplessness, indignation, and helplessness when he was "forced" by Ancelotti to take him away.
He is not Zidane, Figo, Rui Costa, but his talent for football, his creativity, his control on the pitch is enough to prove that he is a veritable master of the arts.
He is not a Dutch trio, but his contribution to Milan and Italian football is obvious to all, and his contribution to football in the midfield position is indelible, he is a real jishu type of midfielder, an artistic midfielder.
He was Albertini.
He is a star with both ability and integrity, and he is also a man who values feelings.
In the summer of 2002, the wound of missing the Shijie Cup had not yet healed, and AC Milan launched a purge within the team, and Ancelotti only "heartlessly" refused to "exile" Milan's vice-president to Spain.
At that time, Albertini begged Ancelotti hard, and even said that he could only train in Milan, but he didn't want to go anywhere, because he only loved Milan in his heart, and he wanted nothing but dedication for Milan.
Milan fans felt injustice for Albertini, and the most die-hard fans chanted "I love Milan, but I can't accept it." ”
Albertini wrote to all the fans on his personal website, and his tone was calm. "Not everyone can decide their own destiny," he said. ”
He said: "It is an honour to dedicate the best time of my career to Milan. ”
?
"I find it hard to tell my team-mates, how do I explain it to them? ”
In the end, he reluctantly left Milan and began his wandering, although his people left Milan, but his heart is still Milan's after all, even if he lifted the double trophy in Atalanta, even if he wore the captain's armband in Florence, but his heart has always been in AC Milan.
During his career, he won six Serie A titles, one Champions Cup, four Coppa Italia titles, one UEFA Super Cup and one La Liga title.
Albertini started his career at AC Milan's youth level and, like Maldini, Albertini rose to fame as a teenager. At the age of 21, he won the 1992 European Youth Championship in Sweden with Maldini Sr.'s Italian national team.
Baggio left a regret in the most poignant penalty of the Shijie Cup, and Albertini was close at hand; The glory of the Dutch trio of AC Milan is clearly witnessed by Albertini.
He accompanied the Italian national team and the Rossoneri team through countless ups and downs. The Milan fans of Shijie affectionately called him "our team vice", he is a righteous person, every newcomer who arrives for the first time, and later always says, "The first person who makes me feel at home in Milan is Albertini." ”
But it was such a bland and sincere Albertini who was betrayed by Milan. In 2002, the team was reshuffled and he was loaned to Atletico Madrid.
When I left the Apennines, the eyes that were always tranquil in the past revealed for the first time a poignant sentimentality.
"I thought I would be back soon. Milan is a place where I want to grow old for the rest of my life. ”
But AC Milan, who abandoned the most consistent midfielder in history, Albertini was never able to fight for the San Siro again. He's been to Lazio, he's been to Atalanta and now Fiorentina, and when the fans protest AC Milan's ruthless callousness, it's Albertini who calms things down.
"My most days have been in Milan, and this memory is a gift from Milan, and that's enough."
Now sitting in the stands of the San Siro, Albertini is just an ordinary spectator, but nothing has changed from the past, and in the midst of the hustle and bustle, there is only one voice in his heart: "Milan are undefeated." ”
"I've been thinking all these years that weishenme Milan has flowed into my blood, and now I understand that the spirit of history is an infinite liliang that spurs me forward like a whip."
Every word Albertini said to Digan in the dressing room was clearly visible, how could he give up his love like this.
History tells us all about what Albertini did for AC Milan.
First appearance for AC Milan in Serie A: 15 January 1989, Milan v Como 4-0.
Appearances for AC Milan in Serie A: 293, 21 goals.
Total appearances for AC Milan: 406, 28 goals.
There has always been something on shijie that can be above anything and give people liliang, and that is faith.
From December 16, 1899 to December 16, 2009, Milan witnessed more than a century of changes, the Apennines and even Europa spent more than a hundred years to sprinkle red and black to every place with fans, and countless honors also created another faith, that is, the low roar that knows no borders one by one forzamilan!
And where there are disputes, there are rivers and lakes, the field is the rivers and lakes, a success will be a thousand bones, when each club holds high the highest honor they have won along the way, how many players are bitter and helpless?
A battlefield is a battlefield after all, and once it falls, there is no chance to rise again.
Berlusconi and Galliani always say that Milan is the most humane club on Shijie, he is like a father, he will not abandon his children, and the children do not want to betray the father who gave him warmth, Maldini, Baresi, Rui Costa, Boban, Leonardo, Tassoti, Redondo, etc., between a hundred years, how many loyal souls?
And when people happily count on their fingers, there will always be a figure in their hearts, and it will always be a lonely back, that is Albertini.
Until now, fans have always believed that he is the only person Milan has owed in a hundred years.
Maldini can serve the country wholeheartedly for more than 20 years, Leonardo can return to Milan after many years, Redondo can let Milan wait for his injury to heal without complaints, Kaka can make all Milan fans scold the chairman to stay, and Albertini can only leave sadly, he wants to bury his loyal bones here San Siro, full of heart but no complaints, only the newcomer laughs, who knows the old sad tears.
Born in Milan in 1971, Albertini has always regarded red and black as his life, from being appreciated by Ruud Gullitt in the Milan academy and recommended to Sacchi, to being ruthlessly abandoned by Sacchi, to Capello's discerning vision, to regaining the league title in the year of the centennial celebration, Albertini has decided to dedicate his life to red and black, and he is already satisfied.
After the retirement of No. 6 Baresi, Maldini inherited the red-black bloodline and he himself happily wore the armband of the vice-team. Just like Maldini, due to the existence of Baresi, Paul did not become a regular team until 1997, Albertini is also the best choice for captain regardless of character, qualifications and influence, but Maldini's position is irreplaceable, so he has become an eternal vice-team in the eyes of Milan fans, which also makes him endlessly reminiscent.
However, what is the birth of Yu?
When Albertini stabilized the main force in the midfield, Ancelotti gradually lost his status in the team, when Ancelotti took the helm in 2002, Albertini had completely faded out of the tactical system, that year he was loaned to Atletico Madrid for a year, the year passed quickly, in the summer of 2003, Albertini returned to the Apennine Peninsula after his trip to the Iberian Peninsula, he said: "I have been a Milan fan for a whole year, when the team won the Champions Cup, I was extremely happy, for a year, The only thing I want to do is to go back to Milan, to Milanello. ”
However, it was not the club's welcoming arms that awaited him, and he and his agent had to spend time negotiating with the club.
Albertini bowed his head, and when he took the initiative to find Ancelotti, he said sincerely: Milan is my life, I just want to end my football career here, and I am willing to obey all arrangements and accept all the new systems here.
However, Albertini's submission did not impress those who were really in charge of the club, the club could spend $19.1 million to buy Real Madrid's abandoned Redondo, can patiently wait for him to recover for a full 28 months, can see him in the Italian Cup and cheer, can take the trouble to say that "the biggest transfer is to regain Redondo", can arrange him to play in the Champions Cup European derby, and express his infatuation with his parent team, But it just can't tolerate an iron-boned loyal minister with only red and black flowing on his body.
Albertini once said: "Leaving Milan is a pain that will never linger in my heart." ”
This is not only his pain, but also the eternal lingering pain in the hearts of all Milan fans, perhaps the melancholy blue of the Mediterranean has already doomed him to the tragedy of his fate, or maybe only the beauty of the mutilation is the most perfect beauty.
Faith is a liliang, but what is it when faith is not recognized?
When I look back, I can only think of Beethoven's words: Is it necessary?
Deciduous ball, when the name is mentioned, do people still think of the AC Milan vice-team back then, the back who wore the red and black sword strip No. 4, Albertini, a generation of Italian classic midfielders.
People think that Baggio is the melancholy prince, in fact, he, Albertini is also the melancholy prince of blue Italy.
Albertini had already become a regular at AC Milan in 1992, making 29 appearances in a season, and naturally had the name Albertini in the national team, when he was 21 years old.
In 1994, Albertini felt the cruelty of professional football for the first time, in the Rose Bowl, he passed by the Hercules Cup, maybe more fans can only remember the bleak back of Baggio, maybe some can remember the moment when Captain Baresi cried, maybe no one remembers Albertini's sad face at that time, when he was 23 years old.
From 1996 to 1997, Albertini wore the number 10 shirt of the national team, and although he did not have the same fan attention as Baggio, the statement that described Albertini at the time was enough to prove his greatness: "When Albertini coughs, Italy catches a cold." ”
In the 1998 Shijie Cup, when Di Biagio's penalty hit the post, more people remember the silver hair fluttering in the wind of the old Maldini, but a lonely figure on the grass sat on the ground and quietly shed tears, Baggio couldn't pull him hard, the man had tears, unforgettable, Albertini was 27 years old that year.
In 1999, in the European Championship qualifiers, San Siro, Albertini's home, where he took the captain's armband of the Italian team, at that moment Albertini was not just Milan's vice-team.
At Euro 2000, fans saw Albertini's tears again, and many fans hated Piero because he wasted too many chances for Albertini to see Albertini's tears again.
In the past ten years, I have watched Albertini's red and black sword stripes alternate in thickness, watched him command in midfield, watched him be bold and tenacious in defense, watched him broaden his horizons, and watched him make accurate long passes. And, of course, his free-kicks, but his erratic routes always flew into the opposition goal or appeared above the heads of his team-mates, and ten years later, Milan fans have missed his brilliant "fallen leaf".
In the 2002 Shijie Cup, Albertini injured his Achilles tendon before the trip, and from this moment on, Albertini said goodbye to the Shijie Cup forever, and also bid farewell to the blue jersey of the Italian national team. Traveling to Lazio, Atletico Madrid, Atalanta, and Fiorentina, Albertini is still associated with the sword stripe, but the years are merciless, and the color of the sword stripe is no longer red and black.
Albertini, a great football star, a master artist, an emotional man, and the same melancholy prince of Italy.
If you want to define loyalty to AC Milan, there are some people who can definitely be called loyal souls, they are the flag and soul of the club; They have become one with red and black; Their loyalty touches every Milan fan deeply.
Although they will eventually grow old, and although they may no longer be in the limelight, all Milan fans will follow their every move with the most admiring eyes, and will treat their every game and even every mistake with the utmost tolerance and understanding.
Maldini: Milan's standard-bearer, a symbol of loyalty. Any evaluation seems redundant. In the eyes of many fans, like Baresi, Maldini is AC Milan. In the team's own words: "The proudest thing in my life is that I've been playing in the same jersey for the rest of my career. ”
Costacuta: Billy, Kolao, Kos, all the nicknames have expressed the greatest respect and love from the fans. It's true that his career wasn't as glamorous as Paul's, and he didn't have much personal accolades to prove himself, but his loyalty to Milan was in no way inferior to any superstar's precision and purity. Perhaps, for a long time, people will look in the stands for the familiar figure of the former No. 5.
Albertini: Forever vice-team, the most heart-wrenching memory for Milan fans. Demy, Milan fans will never forget the flashing eyes in his eyes when he parted, and they will never forget the vicissitudes of his life running outside the city of Milan!
Now, at the age of 36, Albertini has reached the end of his football career, wearing a purple and gold Fiorentina shirt and a captain's armband that symbolizes the leader, and once again stepping on the pitch of the San Siro, this is Zuihou.
"Rod! This match is my farewell match, and I don't want to leave any regrets! ”
Standing in the players' tunnel, standing next to Albertini was his old friend Maldini, who had been fighting side by side with him for more than ten years, Albertini just smiled faintly at his old friend, and turned to Digan to say a word.
Zuihou has fought and does not want to leave regrets!
This sentence Deegan said to Kaka last season that the Champions League final, which was his Zuihou game at AC Milan, he wanted to leave with a title, and he succeeded, scoring a hat trick in the Champions League final, and his performance shocked the whole Shijie.
Now, a year has passed, and for Albertini, it is the end of a new reincarnation, he is leaving, this is his Zuihou fight, there is no trophy as a foil, there is no stage built with flowers.
Digan knew that in Albertini's heart, he longed for Milan to be the Zuihou victor, but Albertini's silent pride forced his body to push AC Milan into the abyss in this game.
Victory!
Only when you win, will you leave no regrets!
"Understood! Demy! You don't have any regrets in your career! ”
Didn't you?
Albertini was still smiling faintly, and the biggest regret of his career was leaving Milan.
However, he was content, in Atalanta he lifted the Italian league trophy and the Coppa Italia, and in Germany, although he missed the final due to injury, he still shined in six appearances in the Shijie Cup, with one goal and two assists, compared to his old friend Maldini, he was lucky to have a Hercules Cup in his career.
And now, even though it has only been two seasons, he has become a symbol of the city of Florence.
Zuihou is in the first fight!
Albertini looked at his old friend Maldini beside him: Are you ready? Paul!
