The first half of the first leg of the Champions League 1/8 final between Liverpool and AC Milan ended.

Liverpool lead 2-0 away.

After returning to the dressing room, Coman said to everyone with a serious expression: "Today's game is completely different from what we expected, the only good news is that we are now two goals ahead, but I hope we don't let our guard down in the second half, in addition, you have to understand that we will encounter different opponents on the way forward, and it is very likely that the game like today will be lenient, and the opponent will fight for the roughness, to be exact, it is happening now, we have to be conscious, no matter what the opponent does, We can all cope with it, and we will face it bravely, nothing can intimidate us, and nothing can stop us from dominating Europe! Yes, lads, we are going to dominate Europe, we are going to plant the flag of the Red Army all over the land of Europe, we are going to dye the European sky red of Liverpool! Let all teams look up at the green sky and see the Liverpool emblem when they look up at the starry sky! That's what we're going to do, so we're not afraid of any difficulties! Nothing can stump us! I have full confidence in you! ”

Koeman's words made everyone's thoughts more unified.

This is probably the first time that Koeman has proclaimed the ideal in everyone's hearts: to dominate Europe!

Restore the Red Army Dynasty and create greater glory!

The fighting spirit of the whole Liverpool team was lifted, and after the start of the second half, Liverpool faced the game with a wilder attitude without waiting for AC Milan to exert their strength.

The overall formation is slightly forward, compressing the space in the midfield, Lucas, Mascherano, Gerrard, Kuyt. In addition, Qin Xiong's five people spared no effort to strangle in the midfield, which directly made AC Milan's midfield completely collapse!

They simply can't get used to Liverpool's crazy pace.

Seedorf has repeatedly lost in Liverpool's dense central defense, AC Milan has no players at the back who can feed the front court, and a precise pass looks very rare in AC Milan now!

Even if Ibrahimovic took the initiative to retreat to respond, he still couldn't get the support of his teammates.

In the 58th minute of the game, when Gerrard and Raul cut off Gattuso's ball before and after, they passed the ball to Qin Xiong. Qin Xiong was just about to complete a long shot when Gattuso tackled from diagonally behind, Qin Xiong noticed it and immediately dodged, and a strong sense of crisis emerged in his heart.

Qin Xiong jumped forward, but he was still tripped by Gattuso in the air.

Qin Xiong lost his balance and fell to the ground.

He felt a strong discomfort in his thigh muscles.

But he still stood up, turned to Gattuso and growled, "You're like a mad dog!" ”

Gattuso stood in front of Qin Xiong with a ferocious face, and was just about to attack, when the referee rushed over. A second yellow card was shown to Gattuso, and then a red card was pulled!

Gattuso looked at the referee's gesture from the sidelines, and instead cursed at the referee.

Then he had to leave again.

Qin Xiong took two steps and felt that the discomfort in his thigh muscles could not be recovered, and then took the initiative to walk to the sidelines, after the preliminary diagnosis of the team doctor, for the sake of safety, the team doctor suggested that Coman replace Qin Xiong.

Qin Xiong wanted to persevere, but he thought about it. This is not the time to be impressed.

The team didn't go in adversity, leading by two goals plus playing an extra one. As long as there are no big surprises, the team will be able to walk away from the win.

And if he keeps playing, if the injury worsens, he may miss the next round, or even more!

That's more than worth the loss.

After a brief exchange with Koeman, Qin Xiong accepted the decision to be substituted.

'AC Milan suffered a heavy blow at the start of the second half. Midfield defender Gattuso was sent off with two yellows and one red, although Liverpool played one more, but their situation was not good, Qin Xiong looked injured after being tackled to the ground by Gattuso, and he was replaced by Merreles. ”

Koeman made a second substitution ten minutes later. Tiott comes on to replace Raul.

In this way, the game completely turned into a hand-to-hand fight.

Liverpool's midfield can both strangle and hard-hitting, and it can run better than AC Milan!

In terms of fitness, it is a few streets away from AC Milan.

The game was interrupted by frequent fouls, and in the 81st minute, when Flamini tackled Lucas with both feet, causing Lucas to also be injured, Flamini also received a second yellow card of the game, and he was also sent off after two yellows and one red.

The Liverpool coaching staff and the AC Milan coaching staff had another verbal altercation on the sidelines.

The match was not at all what one might expect, the confrontation was definitely too intense, but there were very few highlights.

Koeman replaced Lucas with Carragher to bolster the defence.

AC Milan barely created chances in the second half as they drowned in Liverpool's frenzied pressing.

After a dull and confrontational second half, the game is over!

After 90 minutes of intense fighting, the defending Champions League champions Liverpool defeated AC Milan 2-0 at the San Siro Stadium thanks to goals from Raul and Qin Xiong.

With two away goals, Liverpool returned to Anfield and progressed to the quarter-finals of the Champions League almost nine times out of ten.

AC Milan didn't put in a convincing performance for whatever reason, trying to contain Liverpool with fouls, but allowing the fouls to escalate to the cost of sending off two of their own important players.

It has to be said that the referee who enforced the law in this game has very low control over the game, and his loose scale is the fuse that makes the smell of gunpowder on the court stronger and stronger!

Hopefully that will not happen in the next leg at Anfield, we would like to see more of a competitive scene than an endless confrontation and conflict. ”

Liverpool got up after the game and prepared to leave with a proud attitude, but at this time they found that Gattuso came out of the players' tunnel again, as if he was going to be outnumbered and single-handedly challenge the whole Liverpool team!

Qin Xiong and the others didn't even look at him, feeling that Gattuso was like a clown.

There is never a personal vendetta in the competition!

Stadium security kept Gattuso on the sidelines, and the Liverpool players scorned him instead at Gattuso's hideous appearance.

Qin Xiong also glanced at Gattuso, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, if he said something to Gattuso, then there might only be one sentence.

I'm not the hairy kid I was seven years ago.

You are not the same god you were to me seven years ago.

Now, I just have to ignore you!

After the game, another hot clash broke out outside the San Siro stadium between AC Milan extreme fans and Liverpool fans, almost causing a big riot! (To be continued.) )
