Chapter 543 The Man Who Lives Offside (Part [-])
Chapter 544 The Man Who Lived Offside
"Penalty kick!! The referee awarded another penalty kick!!!"

"What happened in the restricted area!!"

Now it was the turn of Atlético Madrid's players to cheer, and they all ran to Griezmann to celebrate him creating the penalty.

AC Milan players surrounded the referee, they were protesting the penalty kick.

"Great job!!!" Gao Bo excitedly waved his fists on the sidelines, in sharp contrast to when his team was called a penalty just now.

Allegri went directly to the fourth official and raised objections to the referee's penalty.

"It was indeed a penalty, Nesta's hand blocked the ball!"

At this time, slow-motion playback is going on on the screen of the TV broadcast.

In the replay, Griezmann made a false shot and made a real dunk. The football changed its course and rolled on Nesta's arm for balance. He almost made a goalkeeper to catch the ball at this moment.

This is undoubtedly a penalty!
If the referee didn't give him a red card, it would have been extrajudicial.

AC Milan's protest was invalid, and captain Ambrosini also received a yellow card for his angry protest.

After making the penalty, the referee naturally cannot change the penalty easily.

Griezmann stands on the penalty spot!
He himself came to take the penalty kick he created.

The referee's whistle blows.

Griezmann runs and shoots!
He directly volleyed the upper left corner of the goal. Although AC Milan goalkeeper Abbiati judged the right direction, the angle of the shot was really tricky. The football hit the net from the dead corner above!

In the 608th minute of the game, Atletico Madrid surpassed the score again!
The fans of the visiting team in the stands went completely crazy!
Leading [-]-[-] in the away game, with two away goals, this situation gave Atletico Madrid fans the hope of advancing to the semi-finals of the Champions League!
For the Atlético de Madrid fans, this is the arena they have been away from for more than ten years. It is really a surprise to them to be able to maintain such competitiveness in both the Champions League and the league this season!
Of course, they don't mind having a bigger surprise!
If Atletico Madrid can reach the semi-finals, the opponents they may encounter in the semi-finals are Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, and Bayern Munich.

Barcelona and Real Madrid are very familiar to Atletico Madrid. Atletico Madrid likes these two opponents because they have always won them in the past two seasons.

If you can make it to the finals.
Atlético de Madrid fans began to look forward to it.

After leading the score again, Gao Bo immediately made a substitution!

The score of [-] to [-] means for Atletico Madrid that they are quite close to the semi-finals of the Champions League.

At this time, AC Milan should be anxious.

Gabi played, he replaced the goal hero Reyes.

The Atletico Madrid fans who came to the away game were chanting Reyes' name, and Reyes also raised his hands and applauded in response!
"Atletico Madrid made the first substitution adjustment, Gabi came on and replaced Reyes! This is an adjustment to strengthen the midfield defense!!"

After Gabi came out, he also came with Gao Bo's latest instructions.

He ran to Ibrahimovic, Gao Bo let him stare at Ibrahimovic.

The Swede is the core of AC Milan's offense. Although he is a center forward, he is not a center forward in the traditional sense. He has a wide range of activities and a deep retreat. When necessary, he can even be used as a midfielder.

AC Milan's frontcourt offense is very dependent on Ibrahimovic's personal performance. As long as one step is restrained, AC Milan's offense will be in trouble.

Therefore, in the following games, people can see the confrontation between Ibrahimovic and Gabi!

In the 703rd minute of the game, Gabi directly dribbled the ball and knocked the Swede to the ground.

The referee verbally warned Gabi, which aroused strong dissatisfaction from AC Milan. They even thought it was at least a yellow card.

Ibrahimovic limped off to heal his injuries, while Allegri was full of anxiety.

If Ibrahimovic is injured, it will be a huge blow to the current AC Milan.

Ibrahimovic is the terminator in the frontcourt and can also act as a dealer.When the team is in trouble, Allegri needs the performance of this superstar even more.

Fortunately, after being checked by the team doctor, Ibrahimovic was fine and he returned to the court.

And when the game continued, people also had to face up to Gabi, who only returned to Atletico Madrid's defensive midfielder from the small team this season.

In his confrontation with Ibrahimovic, it can be said that Ibrahimovic has no advantage at all.

Under his close press, Ibrahimovic played very hard.

In this case, Allegri made the last substitution adjustment, and he replaced the veteran Inzaghi who was sitting on the bench!
Inzaghi is 39 years old, and the veteran Italian striker has also reached the age to retire.

If it was Inzaghi who was five or six years younger, Gao Bo might still do something about this substitution, but what can Inzaghi do now?

Gao Bo didn't feel that a 39-year-old man could pose any threat to his defense.

On the bench of AC Milan, there are still many good players who can play, such as Emma Newelson, Aquilani, Maxi, etc., these are the players in their prime.

If Gao Bo remembers correctly, after the end of this season, Inzaghi will also retire. In the past two seasons, he basically only played in eight or nine games for a whole season, and then he was plagued by injuries and his state declined.

This is also something that every veteran has to go through. At the age of 39, any minor injury may directly lead to the player's retirement.

AC Milan quickly completed the substitution, Inzaghi replaced Boateng!
They are going to start desperately attacking in the last time period.

Losing at home is unbearable for AC Milan, which means that if they want to reach the semi-finals, they will not only have to beat Atletico Madrid in the away game, but they must also score more than two goals.

Such difficulty can be imagined.

Therefore, there is still time, and the AC Milan players will naturally have to fight with their backs.

As for Atletico Madrid, they are now leading the field anyway. As long as they guarantee this result and return to their home court, Atletico Madrid can occupy an absolute advantage.

Therefore, they began to use the ball to pass the time and consume AC Milan's fighting spirit.

Naturally, there is no problem with this tactic. As long as the football is firmly controlled by one's own side, the few attacks of the opponent will not be able to threaten the goal guarded by Navas at all.

This is of course true in theory, but not in practice.

Sometimes, you have to admit that superstars work.

Although Gabi has the overall upper hand in defending Ibrahimovic, Ibrahimovic is a striker after all. He may fail ten times, but as long as he succeeds No. 11 times, he will succeed.

Just like this time.

Seedorf managed to get the ball out in the face of the press and he then passed the ball to Ibrahimovic.

Ibrahimovic did not choose to stop the ball this time, because he found that as soon as he stopped the ball, Gabi's defense would immediately be like a tarsal maggot, and he couldn't get rid of it no matter what.

While he was running, he suddenly picked the ball forward with his toes.

"Ibrahimovic's handling was a bit haphazard"

The Italian commentator was just about to criticize, but soon became excited.

"Inzaghi!!! Inzaghi was offside!!!!"

On the court, Inzaghi ghostly appeared in the penalty area and then received a seemingly random kick from Zlatan Ibrahimovic!
The next thing Inzaghi has to do is very simple.

The 39-year-old veteran was quite calm in the face of such an opportunity. He put the ball on his right foot, then pushed a far corner before Navas came out, and easily scored the ball! !
"Inzaghi!!!!!!!"

San Siro boiled.

Not long after playing, Inzaghi scored a goal.

But at this time, the Atletico Madrid players all went to the linesman, because they felt that Inzaghi must have been offside the moment he received the ball.

The linesman actually hesitated, but he finally believed that Inzaghi was not offside.

On the TV screen, from every angle of the camera, it is difficult to know exactly whether Inzaghi is offside. He seems to stick out a little, but he seems to maintain a line with the last defensive player.

"Madridians don't bother, this is a man who lives offside."

The Italian narrator said.

With this goal, AC Milan equalized the score.

The game also ended quickly, and both sides failed to score again. Atletico Madrid's away game against AC Milan became a [-]-[-] draw.

Who will win depends on the second round of the contest between the two sides.
