long live the king

At this time, AC Milan's last game of Serie A this season is also the most important one.

Every traffic point in Milan has almost become a distribution center for AC Milan fans. Airports, railway stations, bus stations, and subway stations are filled with Milan fans coming in groups from all directions. Their ultimate goal is the San Siro Stadium .

At noon on May [-]th, the final match of the Serie A league, the flow of people reached its peak, and the surroundings of the San Siro Stadium almost turned into a sea of ​​red and black, occasionally mixed with some black and white jerseys. Dines fans, the two colors are intertwined, and there will be some quarrels and entanglements from time to time, but the Milan police pay great attention to the security issues of this game. There are many police and security guards among the fans. Conflicts were quickly and effectively brought under control.

There is still an hour before the game, and the San Siro Stadium, which can accommodate more than [-] people, is already full of seats. The stands are full of banners, banners, and the team song resounds across the starry sky. From time to time, fans sprinkle golden confetti down. They have already started to create a championship atmosphere.

Because AC Milan leads Inter Milan by one point in the standings, as long as AC Milan wins at home in this game, no matter what the score of Inter Milan's away game against Parma is, the Serie A champion will definitely win. It belongs to AC Milan.

45 minutes before the start of the game, when the officials of the Italian Football Association transported the silver championship trophy to the stadium, the scene was boiling, and the fans uttered neat shouts, "The championship belongs to AC Milan!", "We are the champions! "

At this time, in the locker room of the home team, the AC Milan players were making intense pre-match preparations.

"The people of Udinese will definitely not be willing to be the background for us to win the championship. Therefore, Udinese will not be able to win this game easily. Everyone must be mentally prepared to fight hard." Ancelo Tee said, "After the game starts, we need to be the first to win. We can attack for more than ten minutes and put as much pressure on Udinese's goal as possible. It would be best if we can score a goal and take the lead. Don't be impatient. In this game, our only goal is to win, but there is no need to be too nervous. You are not rookies who have won the championship for the first time. I don't need to say more about this."

If it was in the past, Zhang Yang would gag at this time, saying that he is a rookie who has never won the Serie A championship.

However, Zhang Yang was a little silent today, sitting quietly in his seat, which actually made his teammates feel uncomfortable.

Ronaldo muttered to the side, and Ronnie was indeed a little nervous. In the last round of the 20012002-[-] Serie A season, Inter Milan's winning situation was the best in those years. In the last round of the league, they only needed to get away from Lazio. With just one point, he was able to win the league championship, but unexpectedly, he was eventually defeated by the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. This is the closest Ronaldo is to the Serie A championship. This loss has also become a deep regret and shadow in Ronaldo's heart .

This time, AC Milan only needs to win the opponent Udinese in this game at home to win the league championship as they wish. This is also the first time Ronaldo has won the Serie A championship.Ronaldo, who had that miserable experience, is really nervous now.He is too eager to win the Serie A championship.

Before the game, "Gazzetta dello Sport" even used sensational words, "Serie A owes Ronaldo a Serie A championship."

"Publicity!" When the AC Milan players came out to warm up, the huge applause from the AC Milan fans in the San Siro stands startled the AC Milan players.Some people didn't understand why, but some people realized it all at once.

This is what all the fans gave to Zhang Yang, no, to be precise, it was given to the disaster relief workers in the earthquake-stricken areas of China through Zhang Yang, encouraging them to be optimistic, strong, and brave to rebuild their homes.

Zhang Yang looked around the stands, he was moved, and he also knew what the fans meant.

"Thank you everyone." Zhang Yang bowed slightly to the stands, not as an AC player, but as an ordinary Chinese.

The whole day, the sky was gloomy, and at this time, the raindrops had already fallen, and it seemed that it was turning into a downpour.

"Damn it! I hate rain!" a teammate around him complained.

Zhang Yang felt nothing. For him, no matter what it was today, whether it was the weather, the opponent, or even the referee, nothing could stop him from winning the league championship.

Although Zhang Yang doesn't like racing in the rain.But, he said to himself, it was all right, no difference except that the field was a little slippery.

When I was in China, the stadium was much worse than the famous "vegetable field" in San Siro. When it rained, it became muddy. You can change to a set of long spikes, and they are all short spikes. Playing football on that kind of field is like skating, completely untenable.He was Zhang Yang who was still very happy to play football at that time. For him, being able to play football on the court was the happiest thing.

Now that the conditions are so good, it is impossible for him to complain.Moreover, today's game is so important, so important.

Zhang Yang looked at the black gauze on his arm, it was to commemorate the victims of the Wenchuan Earthquake.

Ronaldo slipped and fell while practicing the goal, and when he got up again, there was some dirt on his buttocks and arms.The team doctor on the sidelines was taken aback, fearing that Ronaldo would be injured. Seeing that he seemed to be fine, he was relieved.This game is of great significance to Ronaldo.Coach Ancelotti has already announced the starting lineup for today's game. Ronaldo will partner with Zhang Yang as a striker. Knowing that he will start, Ronaldo is very excited.

Zhang Yang was a little silent today, doing warm-up exercises silently by himself.

He sprinted back and forth, he practiced shooting, pumping, and pushing. He even picked up the football himself and bounced it with his head, regardless of the fact that the muddy water would make his head dirty.

Feeling that football is with him, Zhang Yang's heart is extremely quiet.

Because it rained and the temperature dropped, it took a little longer than usual to warm up.

After the warm-up was over, everyone was drenched.

"Go back quickly, dry off the water on your body, and then change a set of clothes!" Tassotti shouted to every player who ran off the court at the entrance of the players' tunnel. Like the players, he was also wet by the rain. Drenched, but he didn't care.He reminded the players not to catch a cold, but he seemed to forget whether he would catch a cold because of it.

The players urged by him trotted up and walked into the tunnel.

Zhang Yang looked up at the sky, the rain fell and fell into his eyes.Then he lowered his head, shook his head, and got into the player tunnel.

Back in the locker room of the home team, Zhang Yang received a dry towel from the team staff, wiped his body, and then walked into the shower room. After warming up in the rain, he had to take a hot shower, otherwise, he would catch a cold easily.

After taking a shower, change into your competition clothes.Then, under the supervision of the coach, the short studs on the sneakers were replaced with long studs specially used for playing on slippery and muddy fields. After all this was done, everyone sat in their seats, ready to accept The head coach finally deploys before the game, and then it's time to play.

"I don't need to talk about the importance of this game. If we can't win, we will get nothing this season! No one wants to work hard for a season and get nothing?" Ancelotti paused, looking at his players .

Everyone shook their heads. Naturally, no one wants to get nothing. Milan is not a team like Udinese's opponent in today's game. It is enough to enter the European arena. Such a rich team is aimed at the championship almost every season Glory is working hard. If you can't win any championships in a season, it will be a failed season for Milan.

"In this game, as I said before, attack from the beginning, try to score early and break the deadlock on the field. If you still can't score after 10 minutes of the game, don't worry. We can slow down and control the rhythm of the game. , in short, the game should be controlled in our hands, and there should be no pressure. With your strength, there is no problem whether it is scoring goals or winning the game."

"You are already familiar with how to attack. We have been playing like this all the time. But I want to remind you to pay attention to the conditions of the field. The field is slippery when it rains, and it is difficult to cooperate with the ground. Everyone knows the situation of our court. Yes." Ancelotti even had a bit of humor, and then he looked at Pirlo.

Pirlo is the 'Milan brain', the attacking hub of the team.

Pirlo nodded, indicating that he knew what to do.

Ancelotti nodded and continued, "Let me emphasize one more point. The field is slippery and easy to fall to the ground. The referee should not be so strict about fouls. You should pay attention to this. While being careful of the opponent's fouls, You can also foul appropriately. Don’t give the opponent too many free kick opportunities. In such a rainy game, there are many unexpected factors, and we must avoid such unexpected factors.”

Everyone nodded to show they understood.

"Zhang Yang, when we counterattack, we need your speed and breakthrough." Ancelotti said to Zhang Yang again.

Zhang Yang nodded.

Glancing at his players again, Ancelotti said: "Okay, there's nothing more to say. Play the game, guys. Attack the championship!"

"Champion!" Maldini stood up, raised his right arm and shouted.

"Champion!" Everyone raised their right arms and shouted in unison.

"A major earthquake occurred in a certain area of ​​the motherland where AC Milan's shooter Zhang Yang was. All members of the Milan club, including Zhang Yang himself, made donations to the disaster area. The game has not yet started. During the warm-up just now, Zhang Yang accepted The fans applauded and supported, which is the support for Zhang Yang, and also the support and encouragement for the survivors in the earthquake."

"Inter Milan's opponent in this round of the league is Parma. The current Parma team is hardly a threat to Mancini's team. And Inter Milan's players have also expressed their confidence in winning Parma."

"...This is a trophy contest related to the championship. As long as AC Milan can win the game, they will automatically become the league champions of Serie A in the 20072008-[-] season, regardless of the opponent's results. Since the last round of league defeat After losing the Milan Derby, the fate of the Inter Milanese is no longer in their own hands."

"Before the start of this game, players from both sides will observe a moment of silence for the victims of the earthquake that occurred in China. This was first proposed by the AC Milan club, and the Udinese club also agreed. The Italian Football Association After discussion, AC Milan's request was agreed."

After the warm-up, the AC Milan players returned to the locker room again. After a short rest, they will return to the court again to launch the final sprint to the Serie A champion this season.

At the same time, in the locker room of another stadium, Mancini was making the final mobilization before the battle, "This game must be won. As for the score on the other court, there is no need to pay attention to it. Now pay attention to those who are not Useful, only by winning the game on your own side can you be qualified to consider other things."

Mancini glanced at his players, he took a deep breath and said, "This is my last game in charge of you, and I hope to leave with a victory and a championship. Here, I want to thank you, thank you for this We have been working together happily for several seasons, and I wish you all greater brilliance in the coming seasons."

Inter Milan captain Zanetti also expressed his gratitude to Mancini on behalf of the whole team, thanking him for his contribution to the team in the past few seasons.

Subsequently, Zanetti also issued an appeal to all the players, using the victory and championship as a gift to the outgoing Mancini.

The players were also aroused with great enthusiasm. Although everyone knew that there might be no problem in winning this game, but to win the league championship, it was not only about winning the game, but also about winning the game. Other people's faces.They can now only hope that Udinese can perform miracles at the San Siro Stadium.

The feeling of pinning one's destiny on others is really uncomfortable.

In AC Milan's locker room, because this game is related to the league championship, the atmosphere before the game was a bit dull.

But in the dressing room of the visiting team Udinese, the excitement is like wine.Amidst the sound of the music, everyone chatted casually, completely ignoring the upcoming game.Udinese has already qualified for the UEFA Cup next season ahead of schedule this season. It should be said that they have nothing to ask for. To put it bluntly, the players may already be thinking about where to go on vacation after the season is over.

Coach Marino walked in, he stepped forward and turned down the music.Then look at your players.This season, Udinese has performed well under his leadership. Therefore, Marino is also in a good mood now. Seeing that the players are a little too relaxed, he didn't say much.

"I don't need to say anything more about this game. Just play according to the tactical deployment I said before. In this game, our opponents will fight for the league championship. They are bound to fight desperately. I don't have any special requirements for you. , you just need to play at your normal level. Don’t forget, you are wearing Udinese jerseys, even if this game has no impact on our league ranking, don’t relax!”

In fact, when he said this, Marino himself didn't mean much nervousness. For Udinese, this game is a very ordinary Serie A league. They have no reason to go all out. Of course, Udinese Dines doesn't know how to release water either. In short, as Marino said, just play normally.

"...Okay, the players from both sides have appeared, let us introduce the players from both sides."

ac米兰(4-3-2-1)：16-卡拉奇44-奥多，25-博内拉，4-卡拉泽，3-马尔蒂尼8-加图索，21-皮尔洛，23-安布罗西尼22-卡卡99-罗纳尔多、7-张扬；

"In this game, Nesta was suspended for accumulative yellow cards, so Bonera appeared in the central defender position, and his partner was Caladze who returned from injury, Maldini appeared in the left back position, right Oddo is at the back, Gattuso, Pirlo, Ambrosini and Kaka are in the midfield, Zhang Yang and Ronaldo are in the forward line."

"This game is also the last time Cafu and Serginho will play at the San Siro Stadium. The two Brazilians will retire, so a brief farewell ceremony is being held for the two on the court."

Cafu and Serginho, both wearing the Milan team flag, waved to the Milan fans in the stands. The fans stood up and applauded them, thanking the two Brazilian players for their contributions to the team over the years contribution.

There were tears in the eyes of both of them. Saying goodbye to their favorite green field is a painful choice for every player.

"Let's take a look at Udinese's starting lineup."

乌迪内斯(3-4-3)：22-汉达诺维奇21-扎波托茨尼，6-科达，2-萨帕塔20-梅斯托，11-平齐，88-因勒，8-多塞纳7-佩佩，27-夸利亚雷拉，10-迪纳塔莱。

"AC Milan beware of the trident of Pepe, Quagliarella and Di Natale, especially the Quagliarella-Di Natale striker combination, one of the most successful striker partnerships in Serie A this season , because this game is related to the league championship, AC Milan will definitely press forward to attack, but while attacking, they must be careful of Udinese's sneak attack, especially Di Natale. Sometimes, there will always be the performance of the home." When the commentator analyzed Udinese's starting list, he reminded AC Milan.

It also emphatically reminded, be careful of Di Natale!
