AC Milan's starting line-up for this game is as follows:

Forwards: Mane, Ibrahimovic, Salah.

Midfielders: Boateng, Seedorf, Van Bommel.

Defenders: Zambrotta, Thiago Silva, Nesta, Abate.

Goalkeeper: Abbiati.

In terms of formation, Allegri did use the 433 recommended by Pan Yi, but there were adjustments in the specific personnel on the battlefield.

Allegri began his professional coaching career in his mid-thirties and won the title in his first season in charge of AC Milan, making him the fourth coach after Sacchi, Fabio Capello and Zaccheroni to win the title in his first full season.

He's obviously a quality coach and naturally knows which formation is more suitable for Milan at the moment.

It's just that he is also a coach with his own ideas, so he will make some changes based on Pan Yi's tactical play.

For example, in the midfield position, he still wants to have a more attacking playmaker in the midfield - Seedorf.

Including a defensive midfielder, he also trusts the veteran Van Bommel more.

The same can be said at the back, with the experienced Zambrotta and Nesta on the pitch to give Allegri even more peace of mind.

At the same time, making this adjustment can be regarded as a kind of mental hint from Allegri: "Yes, I borrowed Pan Yi's tactics, but I used a different person, this is still my tactic." ”

In fact, when Pan Yi knew about today's lineup, he was a little relieved.

Use this lineup to play Lazio today, and if you can adjust it a little when you play Barcelona in a few days, and replace the main force in Pan Yi's mind, it can be regarded as a kind of rotation.

Although he and Allegri don't think the same way, the end result may be the same.

Opposite, away Lazio is a standard 442 formation:

Forwards: Klose, Cisse.

Midfielders: Brockie, Stephen Maury, Ledesma, Hernanes.

Defenders: Zauri, Biava, Konco, Dias.

Goalkeeper: Pizzari.

Lazio's current coach Rea is 66 years old this year and is a veteran coach, so he will be more classical in the selection of formations and players.

There is nothing special about his arrangement in the midfield, and the offensive problem is mainly based on the two stars of the forward line.

Cisse is an old friend of the Dragons, having been accidentally kicked off his right leg by captain Zheng Zhi in a World Cup warm-up match for France against the Dragons, causing him to miss the opportunity to participate in the 2006 World Cup in Germany.

He later played in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa after recovering from injury, but his performances were mediocre.

The real threat for this Lazio team is another striker, Klose from Germany.

Throughout his illustrious career, he helped Germany win the 2014 World Cup, finishing second in one World Cup, finishing third in two World Cups, and finishing second in one European Championship and third in one European Cup.

He made 24 appearances in the World Cup finals, scoring 16 goals and providing four assists, and surpassed Brazilian striker Ronaldo to top the all-time World Cup scorer list.

He is also the only player in football history to help his team reach the semi-finals of the World Cup four times in a row, and has also surpassed German football's greatest striker Gerd Müller to become the all-time leading scorer in international A-level competitions.

And at the club, even if not as dazzling as in the national team, it is Kaiserslautern, Werder Bremen and Bayern Munich who have won enough honours, and various titles have been soft.

Even near the end of his career, the 33-year-old Klose quickly became the team's top scorer after moving to Lazio, and was the team's top scorer for the next few seasons.

Therefore, before the game, Allegri instructed Nesta to keep an eye on Klose and pay attention to cutting off the high passes to Klose on both sides.

Everyone knows that Klose's header is a big killer for him!

Once in the 02 World Cup, he completed a hat trick with a header, helping the German team sweep Saudi Arabia 8:0, and also helped the Dragon team beat Saudi Arabia and won the 31st place in the World Cup.

In this sense, Klose is also an old friend of the people of the Dragon Country......

However, after the start of the game, Klose's performance was relatively average, and the two sides also played a dull game.

With Milan's front trident continuing to play with pressing up front, Lazio's side possession was a bit difficult and it was difficult to find space to take the ball in stride.

This makes it difficult for Klose to get a comfortable header in the box.

Klose is dumb here, and Cisse, who has passed the peak period, has no way to take Milan's defense, and has been cut off several times when he wants to take the ball.

However, Lazio's attack could not be played, and Milan's side was also in trouble.

Although after Seedorf, it seems to have an extra attacking firepower point, but because Van Bommel's midfield coverage ability is not enough, including his lack of proficiency in the style of play of retreating from the back to the central defender line, the operation of the midfield has some problems.

The back of the back of the play is not reflected, Milan's two wingbacks do not dare to boldly press, and they cannot form a change from 433 to 343, and the power of this formation in attack is greatly reduced.

Throughout the first half, AC Milan's attack relied mainly on the individual ability of the forward trio.

Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane cut inside after frequent breaks down the flanks, but either they were just off the mark or saved by Lazio goalkeeper Bisaari.

Ibrahimovic also found a few limited header opportunities in the aerial duels, but none of them posed a real threat.

At half-time, Milan's dressing room was as dull as it was on the pitch.

Although no one scored, and Milan did not fall behind, it was home after all, and it was not very comfortable to play so ugly in front of 80,000 enthusiastic fans.

"Otherwise, let Kante play?" Pan Yi whispered to Allegri.

Now his tone is more of a suggestion than an argument.

He has to give the manager face.

And a young man like N'Golo Kante who can't run to death, letting him play half-time will not affect the game against Barcelona four days later.

"I think the same way." Tasotti on the side also said, "This may free up Seedorf's offensive ability." ”

Allegri pondered for a moment.

Since both assistant coaches say so, there must be a point.

In fact, Allegri can also see that due to the loss of midfield in the first half, Seedorf was also busy defending for most of the time, and the vision of letting him go up and strengthen the attack has not been realized at all.

On the contrary, due to Seedorf's own weak defensive ability, the overall operation of the Milan midfield is even more difficult.

The vicious circle belongs to yes.

Allegri is a bit stubborn, but he won't give up on winning the game because of that, which doesn't benefit anyone.

So, he stood up, his face facing Kante:

"You warm up and get ready for the second half."
