vs 35 Acceptable outcome
(a)
After possession of the ball, Ibrahimovic burst in from the middle and was about to pedal his bike to shake off Pique, but the Spaniard obviously didn't eat it, and Zuihou Ibrahimovic reluctantly hit Pique's body and bounced out.
The pace of the whole game was fast at the beginning, and it slowly dropped after fifteen minutes, and Milan's defense began to recover, Chen Zhuo and the three interceptors in the midfield were already level, and they began to put more energy into defense, unlike he did in Serie A.
Defense was not Chen Zhuo's weakness in the first place, and Allegri's defensive positioning for Chen Zhuo before this game was to maneuver and strengthen, mainly cooperating with Van Bommel and Thiago Silva to defend Messi.
In the 22nd minute, Chen Zhuo's oblique pass to Pato's ball was recognized by Messi, he took the ball to the side after a keen steal, Chen Zhuo quickly stepped forward to block, and was shaken by Messi very lightly with a feint, but Messi was not able to stage a good show of riding alone, and with the cooperation of Chen Zhuo's rapid return and Van Bommel and Thiago Silva, Messi's dribbling was also broken.
In the 24th minute, Xavi made a long pass in the midfield, Messi knocked on the line of the penalty area, Villa made a slight adjustment and hit the goal with his left foot, but it was slightly above the crossbar, this goal was also one of Barcelona's few shots in the first half, but after this was called shooting, Barcelona started an offensive climax!
In the 26th minute, Messi made a precise straight plug in the middle circle to form a single knife for Villa, but the latter was offside, and the ball was not disputed, and Villa ran too deep.
In the 28th minute, Xavi's long-range shot from about 35 meters outside the penalty area hit Nesta and bounced off the sideline, and then Messi broke through Chen Zhuo again and was hit by Chen Zhuo. The referee immediately blew for a free-kick in front of Barcelona. During the scramble, Sanchez hit Seedorf with his arm and was whistled for a foul, but the referee did not show Sanchez a yellow card, compared to the referee was indeed much more lenient with Barcelona.
In the 33rd minute of the game, Milan got a corner kick opportunity, Ibrahimovic fell to the ground in the chaos and signaled the opposing player to foul, but Pique also covered his face with his hands and lay on the ground, and the Barcelona player ran over to signal that Ibrahimovic wanted to do a scorpion tail swing, but the spikes may have touched Pique's face. But Ibrahimovic signaled that he was pushed directly from behind by Pique......
Chen Zhuo didn't see it completely clearly. Busy watching the ball's flight and landing, he didn't notice what had just happened.
The referee did not rashly play the card this time, and after discussing with the linesman, he let Barcelona serve the goal kick, and the controversy was temporarily shelved.
Pep Guardiola has already called on his players to warm up on the sidelines. However, Pique was fine after receiving a simple treatment. A false alarm. The game continues.
Just one minute after the restart, Villa received Messi's diagonal ball in the middle and faced Nesta's defence. After a slight adjustment, he scored in the far corner on the line of the big penalty area, and the ball was very tricky, and Abbiati couldn't reach it! 1-0, Barcelona scored first after a stalemate!
The goal conceded around the 35th point made the Milan players a little depressed, but these players have also seen the big scene, and this situation will not distort their mentality.
After a stalemate of about ten minutes, the referee blew the whistle for the end of half-time.
(b)
At the beginning of the second half, there was a passing error in Barcelona's backfield, Ibrahimovic turned and hit the goal directly at the top of the arc of the penalty area after a steal, the ball was blocked by Puyol, and Milan won a corner.
Chen Zhuo chose to shoot a direct corner kick from the cold arrow, Valdés was blocked by Ibrahimovic like a wall, but Chen Zhuo's lob was a fraction of a second, hitting the back post and being cleared by Pique's header.
In the 8th minute of the second half, Sanchez broke through Seedorf and Thiago Silva in succession, and collided with Messi to enter the penalty area, but then was destroyed by Nesta, and the corner kick of the Barcelona team was confiscated by Abbiati.
It was Sanchez again, who came back a minute later and almost broke through Nesta, and the Chilean's tactics of cutting inside on the right flank stirred up the Milan backline.
Chen Zhuo got the ball in the middle and wanted to attack quickly, but the pass was too anxious, and there was another mistake, and the ball was destroyed by Alves out of the sideline.
With Allegri's gesture, Chen Zhuo began to try to break through with the ball himself, allowing Patonel to cut, and Puyol, who was caught up, shoveled out of the bottom line with the ball and won another corner.
In this corner kick in the 11th minute of the game, Chen Zhuo hung to the front point, Pato stopped the ball and knocked it back, Seedorf fell to the ground on the penalty line and shot a shovel, bypassing many defenders in the penalty area, breaking through the Barcelona goal and equalizing for AC Milan.
Another valuable away goal! After the goal, the veteran Seedorf is also very excited, the 35-year-old Seedorf has not been retired for a long time, and now he is also playing every game with Chen Zhuo's Zuihou mentality.
Indeed, Seedorf will not be able to play at home to Barcelona due to the accumulation of yellow cards, so in this case, in the second leg of the semi-finals, Gattuso and Seedorf will be sidelined.
In the 16th minute, Messi broke through with the ball in the bag of many AC Milan players, and Boateng's clothes did not work, zuihou or Boateng simply put the Argentine down, and he also received a yellow card, but fortunately, Messi's free kick was missed, and this yellow card is still valuable.
In the 20th minute of the second half, the veteran Seedorf went down and replaced Robinho, it was obvious that Chen Zhuo was withdrawn to the back position, so that he could strengthen the defense and take care of the organization.

Soon after coming on the pitch, Robinho lured Sanchez into a foul at the back through a breakthrough, allowing Sanchez to receive Barcelona's first yellow card after the opening, and at the same time won a free kick for Chen Zhuo.
This free kick in front of the goal is 423 meters away from the goal, close to the sideline, if it is normal, other players will definitely choose to pass into the penalty area, but Allegri's gesture is very resolute, asking Chen Zhuo not to think too much and shoot resolutely! The other players just need to be ready to shoot!
Allegri has a request for the ball at this distance, Chen Zhuo has also trained at ordinary times, and he wants Liliang not to angle, even if he can't break the goal directly, after being blocked by the goalkeeper, then there will be a chance to shoot in a chaotic battle, but unfortunately Inzaghi is not there, otherwise this tactic makes Chen Zhuo and Inzaghi the most suitable to cooperate.
Ruud van Nistelrooy is okay, but now Allegri has no intention of letting him play for the time being, Allegri still needs Pato's speed, and Ruud van Nissano and Cassano can only continue to sit on the bench for the time being, waiting for the call-up.
Chen Zhuo's direct shot was knocked out of the penalty area by Valdés, Alves took advantage of the situation to take the ball and counterattacked, and was forced to kick down by Nesta one-on-one near the corner flag, Alves exaggerated to the ground, the actor's true colors reappeared, and the referee was also very cooperative, showing a yellow card to Nesta.
Although the ball fell rapidly, the bold was still slightly off the crossbar and the junction of the post, Messi's direct free kick near the corner flag area was also wonderful, perhaps Chen Zhuo's direct shot from the corner kick in the first half was stimulated, almost the same position as the corner kick, Messi also chose a direct shot.
If the game ends 1-1, Milan is likely to sacrifice a 10-0-0 tactic to defend a 0-0 after returning to the home stadium, basically not only Mourinho, Allegri can also do this kind of thing, Guardiola, who is not satisfied with this score, replaced the goal hero Villa, although he scored a goal, but Villa also wasted a lot of opportunities, as of about 30 minutes of the second half, Barcelona has 16 shots in the second half, but only 7 on target, The balls that flew were basically caused by Villa.
Pedro, who replaced Villa, won a free-kick for Barcelona shortly after coming on, but Xavi's long ball flew straight off the line and he waved his apologies to his team-mates.
Like AC Milan, Barcelona also played eight games in a month, no less than Milan, so the players' physical reserves are on the verge of being depleted.
In the 80th minute of the game, Barcelona made a long pass, Messi collided with Chen Zhuo when he was running, and both fell to the ground, the referee immediately whistled and ran to the place of the incident, Nesta hurriedly stepped forward to help Chen Zhuo clear the siege, the referee finally did not play a card, but just gave Barcelona a foul, Chen Zhuo helplessly pointed to the big screen for the referee to let him see, and was scolded by the referee.
This goal, Messi lived up to expectations and sent the ball into the goal of AC Milan, rewriting the score to 2-1, and Chen Zhuo was also helpless.
This score also became the final score, and in the Zuihou stage of the game, Allegri replaced Pato with Ruud van Nisney and Chen Zhuo with Ambrosini, and kept the score 1-2 with an unenterprising move, and did not let Barcelona expand the score again.
In stoppage time of the game, Robinho had a great chance to shoot from a distance, he hit the ball high in an unmarked state of about 30 meters, which also made the Milan fans watching the game regret for a while, if the ball was Chen Zhuo, if it was not Chen Zhuo was replaced, if not Chen Zhuo was withdrawn to the defensive position......
This game also ended Chen Zhuo's streak of scoring goals, and the previous record of scoring in seven consecutive games also came to an abrupt end.
(iv)
"Don't be discouraged! It wasn't that scary, at least we had an away goal! Allegri reassured.
Allegri is relaxed now, and Milan have been strong on all three fronts in a harvest month of May.
Milan will be awarded the trophy three rounds ahead of schedule as long as they are unbeaten in the penultimate round of the league on 1 May, and this game is at home to Bologna, and a draw is not a problem for Milan.
In this way, Milan can focus on the second leg of the semi-finals of the Champions League and Coppa Italia, and the league will allow more young players to show that after a hard season, it's time to reap the rewards! (To be continued......)
