Modric stared at Suker, his heart full of powerlessness.

He knew very well that it was really too difficult to restrain Suke.

From the beginning, this guy is like that.

He wasn't questioning Ferguson, but he did think that the restrictions on Suker should be increased, especially the extreme marking, so that Suke could completely lose his voice.

However, United were confident that they could win Milan at home, so they did not do so.

But the current situation is to let Su Ke end.

But no matter what, the game continues.

Manchester United are not without chances.

Heading into the second half, Suker will become more of a threat.

This is mainly reflected in the physical aspect.

Modric's fitness is very good, but he doesn't dare to say that he can compete with Suker.

'By passing the ball up, we can get more chances when we attack.

Luka Modric shouts at Cristiano Ronaldo.

Ronaldo likes to pass people very much during this time period, but under the defensive linkage of Milan, Ronaldo's current personal ability is a little insufficient!

Even Suker two years ago was unable to move after a headlong crash into Milan's defence.

Manchester United players await the start of the game.

The Milan players retreated to the half-time in a flank of Suker.

You can see the smiles on the faces of the Milan players.

But at the moment when the kick-off was about to start, the whistle suddenly remembered that Milan took the lead in making substitution adjustments.

Maldini and Nesta are off.

Kaladze and Costa Kuta come on.

It is rare for two centre-backs to go off together, and it is common to change one and leave one for stability at the back.

However, Milan made two substitutions directly, and this substitution made Manchester United smell something strange.

Maldini and Nesta went off the pitch, and the two didn't even stay on the bench, but went straight into the tunnel back to the dressing room.

This makes it all the more suspicious.

It's just that Manchester United didn't think about it so much time at this stage.

Manchester United were quick to make substitutions.

Carrick and Ryan Giggs are off.

Park Ji-sung, Louis. Hasa comes on.

'Three lungs' Park Ji-sung is known for his physical ability to run. Al Ahsa can also be extremely helpful in attack.

This is a means of further strengthening the offensive.

Obviously, Ferguson wants to take advantage of the departure of Milan's two central defenders to find a way to break the game.

After Milan took the lead, their overall tactics began to tilt towards the defensive.

If he could, Ancelotti would have liked to be more thorough.

But the situation did not allow it, Maldini and Nesta had physical problems, and their stay on the pitch did not have much effect, or even side effects.

Therefore, he decisively chose to make a substitution.

At the same time, Ancelotti also asked Suker to drop back and defend more, leaving Kaka alone in the front court to wait for the impact.

Although Suker is in the center forward position.

But compared to Kaka, Suker is better at defensively.

For this reason, when Suker retreated, Milan's position also became 4-5-1.

"Manchester United's attack has become more and more intense, and since AC Milan's comeback, United have been actively looking for shots!"

"Wayne Rooney also tried to shoot from distance frequently, but the chances were not very good."

"Milan's two centre-backs, Kaladze and Costacuta, were not in great shape to enter the game, and they couldn't withstand the pressure when they faced the top contest, which also put goalkeeper Dida under a lot of saving pressure."

Little by little, time passed.

When Milan took defensive measures, Manchester United's attack became even more unscrupulous.

Suker is also a drop-back defense and can certainly counter-attack when he has the chance.

It's just that Manchester United's attack is fierce, yes, but at the same time it is also cautious.

This caution stems mainly from Modric.

This guy is really stable!

Throughout the game, he made almost no passing errors, and he frequently launched sharp attacks, and several passes could threaten the Milan goal.

Ronaldo and Rooney also played quite hard.

Although they don't usually deal with each other, they are dedicated enough not to bring personal emotions into the game.

Substitute Luiz. Hasa also runs hard, relying on his physical advantage to put pressure on Milan frequently.

Suker retreated deeply, almost in a defensive position.

He has some defensive ability, but he is not a professional defensive player, so the effect is not too good.

But from time to time, it can also intercept and coordinate defenses.

For a striker, this level of defensive support is more than enough.

But they're facing Manchester United!

Under the attack push again and again, Milan is also under a lot of pressure.

At this time, Manchester United's attack, led by Modric, once again hit the front of the big penalty area.

The Milan players don't care about whether the bus is big or not, and all of them enter the big penalty area, but they don't give you a foothold and a breakthrough point.

Have the ability to shoot from a distance!

Then, Manchester United began to bombard AC Milan.

"What a fucking Meng!"

Su Ke couldn't help but curse secretly.

Ronaldo, Rooney, Modric, one counts as one, and they are all good at long-range shots.

The trio rounded Milan's goal and could threaten from either direction.

Dida was engrossed, his body was tense at all times, and the moment the opponent got up, he had to make a save, or it would be too late.

With the clock going into the 80th minute, United have been playing around Milan for a while.

During this period, Milan also played several counter-attacks, but they were all destroyed by Manchester United's active retreat.

To put it bluntly, it's still a problem at the back.

Maldini and Nesta, despite their age, are stable enough.

But that's not the case with Kaladze and Costacuta.

These two guys are really going to turn into a big colander.

It even caused Cafu and Jankulovski on both sides to come under tremendous defensive pressure.

Once the full-backs are under too much defensive pressure, they can easily be blown up.

At this point, Scholes feigned a shot and suddenly chose to split the side.

Cristiano Ronaldo quickly went down and took Cafu with him at the same time.

When Ronaldo stabilized the ball, he looked up at the penalty area.

"Prepare for the top!"

Cafu subconsciously shouted, he thought Ronaldo was going to cross.

But Ronaldo didn't do this, but passed diagonally to Park Ji-sung in the rib area, and Park Ji-sung continued to pass horizontally.

The ball comes to the periphery of the front of the penalty area.

And there, Modric cut in diagonally from right to left.

Modric landed his left foot on the ground and leaned to the left, a very deceptive gesture that Costa Kuta thought Modric was going to pass from the left, and when he leaned to the left, he heard an exclamation in his ears.

"Be careful! He's going to shoot! ”

Suke shouted anxiously.

But by this time, it was too late.

Modric snapped his ankle and jerked his right foot forward.

Luka Modric's signature outside instep long-range shot.

The ball arcs and flies towards the left corner.

Milan's goalkeeper Dida was also unable to make a quick judgment and by the time he was about to make a save, it was too late.

The ball smacks into the net.

"Goal!! Modric!! ”

'On 86 minutes, Luka Modric's brilliant long-range shot was his trademark long-range action that made Costa Kuta misjudged and couldn't be blocked.

'But we also need to praise Modric's long-range shot is brilliant.'

The stadium also erupted in loud cheers from Manchester United fans.

It was the crucial goal in the 86th minute that saved United from a terrible situation.

Modric was also relieved to see the goal, he didn't choose to celebrate, he ran into the goal, scooped up the ball and ran towards the center circle.

"There's still time, one more!"

Modric shouted loudly.

But at this point, Milan also made one last substitution.

Simic came off the bench to replace Ambrosini to further increase the defensive intensity.

For Milan, an away draw is also acceptable.

Moreover, they will not let the good things slip out of their hands.

In the last few minutes, the battle between the two sides became more intense.

Fouls were frequent, and both Suker and Seedorf received a yellow card each.

It's just that Manchester United's physical strength has also been depleted, and under the frequent foul tactics, Manchester United's attack has also been delayed.

In the last few minutes, both sides gritted their teeth and persisted.

Until the end of the game, not a single goal was scored.

Finally, the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals.

Manchester United suffered a strong draw 3-3 at home from AC Milan!
