Chapter 149: Consultation with Milan (1)
The two goals conceded made Capello lose face, only to see the old card wave his big hand, Boban retreated to the central midfield position, Desailly and Costa Curta partnered in central defence, Zieg and Maldini switched places. Cruz was replaced by Leonardo, who had just moved to Milan from Sao Paulo, Brazil, along with Albertini for Ibrahim. Ba and Boban partnered in midfield, with Mani coming in for Weah and Donadoni in the wing-back positions.
This change brought Milan's midfield to life quickly, especially when Trezeguet once again wanted to find a hole in the Milan centre-back position, and let his French countryman Desailly pout his ass. Soon AC Milan found an opportunity to score, in the 32nd minute of the game, the Suns were cut off in front, Albertini made a direct pass to the feet of Leonardo in the front, the Brazilian rubbed the outside of his right foot, and the ball turned to the feet of Mainie who cut inside from the left side, who wanted to break through between Huang Qi and Li Byrne, and saw that there was no chance to feel that he returned the ball to Leonardo in the middle, the future Milan coach, The Brazilian midfielder, who helped AC Milan buy Kaka, directly passed the incoming ball with the outside instep to the feet of Zigger, who inserted the assist on the left side, and the German was awkward for a whole game, but he seized the opportunity to play what he was good at, and found Kluivert in the middle with a cross with a perfect arc, and the Dutch striker jumped up against Lieberne, and a textbook lion shook his head to push the ball into the goal. AC Milan equalized for the time being. Lee Byrne sat on the ground and watched Kluivert's god-level bounce and god-level header, alas, this is not wrong at all, think of the match between Brazil and the Netherlands in the semi-finals of next year's World Cup. This header is really incomprehensible!
In the next 10 minutes, AC Milan launched a frantic counterattack, Lee Byrne lost twice in the next three aerial duels with Kluivert, fortunately the first two were a little far from the goal, and the third time Lee Byrne found himself able to use his speed and bounce to interfere with the opponent, and finally completed a header clearance before the opponent. At this time, the boy found that the "system" actually reminded him that he could achieve a master-level header as long as he fought for 3 headers in a duel with a god-level header. Haha, I finally learned some ways on how to acquire skills.
In the last 1 minute of the game, the Guangzhou team's goal was chaotic, Boban's long pass rushed to find Kluivert accurately, and the Dutch center squeezed Huang Qi and his own full-back behind him, so that his body lost balance, and as a result, Li Bern once again completed the battle, and before he had just cleared the penalty area, Leonardo on the periphery shot in with a long shot, and the ball hit Meinie's body and bounced high, Kluivert just stood up and didn't have time to jump, Li Bourne jumped up and pushed the ball to the sideline. Talent header complete! Before he was happy for half a second, Zig hit the left foot directly from the side of the big penalty area and hit it again, and the boy was busy! The ball also picked up his leg and kicked it, and the ball hit the outside of the foot and spun and flew out of the bottom line. Waiting for Milan's corner kick, Corina finally blew the whistle at the end of the game, and the Guangzhou team narrowly defeated the opponent 2:1, but unfortunately won the second place in the triangle by a goal difference.
After the game, Capello went to the locker room without looking back, Li Bern met Galliani when he finished the field with other players from both teams and was about to go back to the locker room, and the bald manager said to the teenager: "I'll go first, and I'll find time to talk in the evening" After saying goodbye to the Milan manager, the teenager carefully reviewed the process of the game. After these 90 minutes of play, I am now sure that I have the ability to compete in Serie A, and I look forward to the end of this season! Ready to start your European career!
In the evening, the Helios Club arranged a banquet to which Parma and the entire Milan team and the relevant leaders of the Football Association were invited. Galliani finished his work on the pitch and pulled Capello to sit down at the teenage table. I don't know what Galliani said to Capello before, anyway, Uncle Curly-haired Eyes seems to be a little unhappy, and Li Bourne didn't pay so much attention to him after a glance, anyway, Uncle Curly will also go to Rome City to make contributions from next season, and it has nothing to do with him.
Galliani saw that Capello obviously had no desire to talk, so he took a sip of red wine and said: "Lee, I asked the players of your team after the game today, Van Gaal has something to ask for leave, and you are responsible for the team's tactical arrangements for these two halves. Now that I've believed the words of the old guys, you really have the potential to become a famous teacher. yes, you also know that Milan have had a poor record in the past two seasons, and I would like to hear if you have any good advice."
Li Byrne thought for a while and replied: "In fact, it can be seen from today's game that Milan's biggest problem now is three points. The first is that the team's attacking tempo is too slow, and there is a big problem with the connection between the midfield, you can see that for Boban, the attacking core, our double back configuration makes him properly. Of course, this is not only Boban's responsibility, but also the lack of support for the forward midfielders along the flanks. Ba sells it while it's still worth some money, there are not many ways to attack on the wing, and he can be more dangerous if he is put in the front line, but we already have Weah and Kluivert, which makes Donadoni play very uncomfortable on the right side, because the left wing and the middle can't bear the pressure, and it is easier for others to set up a defensive line against Milan's attack.
Speaking of the striker, this is the second point I want to say, I can't understand why the team chose the latter before Baggio and Boban, it's the middle of '97, just 3 years ago Baggio almost single-handedly brought your Italian national team to the World Cup final, his ability to do the ball and break through in the front court is exactly what the team needs, and compared to Boban, Baggio's range of activities is much larger, he can even retreat to the position of central midfielder to take the ball to organize the attack, Now Baggio's departure has led to no one in the front line to give them a good chance to create. I don't know if you watch the NBA game, just like the point guard in basketball, being able to break through can create more opportunities for interior and outside scorers to score. This is the biggest failure of this year's team reform. I'm sorry I'm very straight, please don't mind."
No one expected that a conversation that would change the pattern of Serie A in the next 10 years would happen inadvertently in the conversation between the teenager and Galliani.
