Chapter 73: He's Going On Offense?

Ibrahimovic's arrival also brought the latest tactical instructions.

Milan's two wingers, Sadio Mane and Salah, switched positions.

Sadio Mane started to move to the right and play as a right winger.

Salah, on the other hand, was on the left and played as a left winger.

They all switched from backfoot to straight foot, which means one thing: Milan are ready for all kinds of crosses!

Since your fence is tight, let's try it with an air strike!

At the same time, Milan's two full-backs, Zambrotta and Abate, have also stopped going down and left space for the two wingers.

What they have to do now is to get the ball up 45 degrees after the midfield crosses the line.

Air mode on!

As a result, Arsenal's two centre-backs suddenly became busy.

At the same time, they also find it very difficult.

Vermaelen is 183cm tall and weighs 73kg.

Koscielny is 186 cm tall and weighs 75 kg.

This is not at all in the same order of magnitude as Ibrahimovic, who is 195cm tall and weighs 95kg.

Coupled with Ibrahimovic's bounce and header, including the flexibility and coordination of the body, it crushed both centre-backs.

Therefore, in the competition for high-altitude balls, Ibrahimovic frequently has an advantage.

Especially in corner kicks or free kicks, Van Dijk, who is 193cm tall and weighs 92kg, also went up, which made the Arsenal defenders complain.

It's so hard to top!

Milan's change of tactics did make Arsenal a little scrambling.

Arsene Wenger is also bitter.

The only centre-back in the Arsenal squad who can compete with Ibrahimovic, the 198cm, 90kg Medsak, is now on the bench.

He's physical, he's good with his header, but he's slower and he's even slower to turn.

And Ibrahimovic is not only good at heading, but also skilled with his feet.

Therefore, to completely defend against Ibrahimovic, on the whole, the combination of the two central defenders on the field is more suitable.

In addition to Ibrahimovic, Milan also have two fast wingers on the field, which is why Wenger chose to use these two starting centre-backs.

Now, the two wingers are constantly attacking the Arsenal defence.

On one of Rosicky's passes, N'Golo Kante burst up and cut the ball away, before instigating a counter-attack on the spot.

He quickly played a long ball and pinpointed it to the right side of the pitch.

Mane, who appeared on the right side, stepped forward as fast as he could, and continued to drive straight with the ball, advancing along the right flank.

Since it was Mane's foot, he had not thought of the option of cutting inside at all.

There was only one word in his mind: bottom, cross!

And when Mane was racing on the wing, Milan's middle and left, Ibrahimovic and Salah were also like two sharp knives, sprinting towards Arsenal's goal in unison.

Koscielny even pulled and pulled, but he couldn't stop Ibrahimovic's advance, and he was directly squeezed behind him.

By this time, Mane was already close to the bottom line with the ball.

Arsenal's left-back Gibbs has long been left behind by Sadio Mane, and now centre-back Vermaelen has come to make up for it.

Vermaelen also had a lot of experience and he didn't rush to get up, but instead stood up so that Mane couldn't dribble further into the box.

But Mane is clearly not prepared to do so.

He glanced up at the box, then raised his thighs and made a gesture to hit the ball high at the back post.

Koscielny saw that his full-back Sagna was also in place to defend Salah at the far post, so he calmed down and concentrated on defending Ibrahimovic in front of him.

At this moment, Ibrahimovic's figure retreated, as if he was about to run to the back post to receive Mane's pass.

Koscielny was startled and hurried to follow.

But Ibrahimovic made a false shot, and instead took a few big strides forward to the front post!

And almost at the same time, Mane's ball came out.

It's fast, with a lot of spin.

But this ball is not passed to the back point, but to the front point!

At this time, Koscielny is already beyond the reach of the whip.

And Arsenal goalkeeper Szczesny can only rush to attack and destroy the ball before Ibrahimovic can get it.

But Ibrahimovic was already in front of the ball.

He made a leap to get the ball into the Arsenal goal before Szczesny could strike!

Half a second later, the whistle for the referee's goal was also sounded!

3:0!

In the 70th minute of the game, Milan scored again!!

It was a game-killing goal and a goal that ignited the San Siro again!

The fans jumped and jumped, screaming at Ibrahimovic in the stadium to express their excitement.

And this goal made Zhan Jun feel a little suddenly realized now:

"Ah, the process of scoring this goal is different from the way Milan used to play."

'It was Mane who switched to the right and then came in a smooth low cross, and then Ibrahimovic in the middle grabbed the front and nodded the ball.

"And it can be seen from the clear line of this goal that this routine Milan should have also practiced before the game."

"I really didn't expect that this kind of classic cross winger + standing center forward style of play was actually used by the coach of Milan in this game, and the effect is very good."

"Is this Pan Yi's idea again? It's amazing. ”

"How did he judge that Arsenal would not make a big comeback when they were two goals down? As a result, he boldly removed the fast Aubameyang and used Ibrahimovic's big center attributes to play high and high, and finally succeeded. ”

"As a commentator, at this time, I really feel that I know too little about the coach's tactics, and I am ashamed to be ashamed, and I really have to find Pan Yi to guide and learn if I have the opportunity......"

On the field now, Arsene Wenger is very embarrassed.

If it's acceptable to lose two goals away and have a chance to turn the tables at home, now three goals have been lost......

Even if I go back to the Emirates Stadium, I feel like I can't do anything about it.

Arsene Wenger had no other choice.

It can only be Bo Yi.

If we can score an away goal and end the game with a score of 1-3, the situation will be much better and there will be more hope of coming back at home.

But Arsenal's firepower today was really too poor.

In front of AC Milan's pressing defence, few dangerous chances were created.

So Arsene Wenger decided to make a substitution.

Henry, Chamberlain, Arshavin, all replaced!

This is also a last resort.

That's all he has in his hand.

For example, the Russian star Arshavin, known as the "Tsar", performed well when he first came to Arsenal in 09, and once played a senior against Liverpool.

But now he is exhausted, and he can only play as a substitute.

As for Chamberlain, the offensive attribute is average, and he can run when he is young.

Not to mention the veteran Henry, who originally came back from loan this year because of the return of the "firefighting" nature of the striker without any helplessness, that is, to use it occasionally.

And at this moment, Milan on the opposite side also changed.

Pan Yi brought Seedorf and Boateng to the sidelines, apparently to replace Gattuso and Ambrosini.

"Ah, what is Milan trying to do?" Zhan Jun exclaimed, "What is Pan Yi trying to do?" ”

"Could it be that he is still going to continue to strengthen the attack?"
