Chapter 391 Strange Tactics
After the opening attack, AC Milan made it clear that they were playing a defensive counterattack. Seedorf lingered on the left side of the midfield, Gomez acted as a high point, and Robinho lay in ambush behind him.

After withstood AC Milan's sneak attack, Schalke's 04 formation gradually pressed up. Sun Wu started to connect the whole team with running positions and passing the ball, but the smooth passing was of little significance. AC Milan's defensive formation was very poor. good.

Sun Wu's sight fell on AC Milan's right, which was Gattuso's territory.

It seems that AC Milan has set up a three-back midfielder formation, but in fact Gattuso has always played on the right, but he has a wide range of activities. When defending, he appears on the right side of the center to protect Pirlo, and when attacking, he gets out of the way. The wing... A few years ago, behind him was Cafu who could dominate a wing, and now there is Gianluca Gianluca, who is getting old but cannot be ignored.

After trying twice, Draxler was pushed out of the sideline by Gattuso. Before the referee called a foul, Fuchs was forced by Zambrotta to take the ball out of the baseline.

Sun Wu shook his head and looked at the other side. Although Seedorf did not contribute much to the defense, the left back Antonini rarely stepped forward to assist.

The defense of the Serie A team is really difficult!

In the 15th minute, Sun Wu found an opportunity to try a long-range shot from a position on the right outside the penalty area. The ball passed the goalkeeper Abbiati, but it flew out of the bottom line against the crossbar.

"Very threatening!" Adam Simpson shook his head. "Although there is a threat, it is a manifestation of personal ability. Best must show some real skills."

Pirlo frowned and glanced at this Chinese player. He noticed this player who was rated as the best young midfielder in Europe last season. The attack style is very different from Barcelona.

"Thomas!" Sun Wu made a gesture to Hitzelsperger, and shouted at his teammates.

Uh, the teammates don't understand Chinese, but they can understand those few words, such as front, back, left, right, pass, shoot, nightclub, woman...

For example, this time, everyone understands that Best is asking everyone to strengthen long-range shots.

In the 25th minute, Sun Wu received a cross from Farfan and made a long shot. His sister-in-law stepped forward to block it, but Sun Wu suddenly turned around to protect the ball and passed the ball across. The ball just rolled between Flamini and Pirlo ...

"Hitzelsperger shoots long!"

This was a direct shot without stopping the ball. Hitzlsperger pressed the ball firmly, but the angle was a bit positive. The ball was punched out by Abbiati, and Dekrasler volleyed the ball without stopping. The shot was blocked from the bottom line by Nesta with his shoulder.

"A seemingly ordinary but very particular pass." Zhan Jun explained carefully with great interest: "Sun Wu's pass made Pirlo and Flamini very uncomfortable. Pirlo can't stretch his legs enough." However, Flamini did not dare to stretch his feet, for fear that he would be directly wiped by Hitzlsperger if he lost his position."

"In such a densely populated area outside the penalty area, Sun Wu's pass is very bold, very skillful, and full of enthusiasm!"

Zhang Lu on the side added: "In the words of our Chinese people, it's like seeing every stitch!"

"Papa papa!" Sun Wu clapped vigorously and said loudly, "Go on! Go on! Go on!"

Not far away, Farfan and Matip had weird expressions on their faces. Sun Wu said the words "continue" in Portuguese, English, and Spanish respectively, but there was no German.

Sun Wu was afraid that the group of guys on the opposite side would not understand!
In the 30th minute, Draxler forced a breakthrough from the outside and was brought down by Gattuso. Before the referee blew his whistle, Matip rushed up and shot, and the ball hit Flamini's stomach.

There were boos from the stands, and even a few flaming fireworks were thrown into the arena.

In the 34th minute, Sun Wu forced a kick from the outside and was blocked by Gattuso, but then immediately took the second kick. The ball was stopped by his sister-in-law with his back, and immediately the third kick was made. This time it was Pirlo... The ball hit the unlucky Pirlo's face.

Uh, no bleeding, but tears, and the ball hit Pirlo right on the nose.

Looking at Pirlo who played for treatment, Sun Wu was a little sorry, but he didn't change his mind. Pirlo didn't undertake many defensive tasks in AC Milan. His end does not mean that AC Milan's midfielder position will have loophole.

In the 38th minute, Sun Wu took the ball behind his back to resist Gattuso behind him.

Sun Wu leaned back hard, and Gattuso turned sideways to resist with his shoulders and stretched his feet to hook the ball from his crotch.

Neither of them was a good bird, one pulled Sun Wu's clothes hard, and the other swung his elbow back hard from a place where the referee couldn't see...

In the end, two people fell to the ground at the same time, and the referee did not blow his whistle.

Hewedes suddenly rushed up to get the ball before Flamini, and Hewedes shot from a long distance after waving the ball.

The quality of the shot was not bad, forcing Abbiati to make a good save.

"Andres." Allegri put his arms around Pirlo's shoulders, "Be careful with the number 38."

Pirlo nodded, "This is a very special midfielder. It is difficult to penetrate the defense line with long-range shots alone. No. 38 is also very clear about this."

They are all insiders, and everyone knows that although long-range shots are a common method of breaking goals, they often require a little influence from external factors.

An unguarded shot...

A sudden change of line leaves the goalkeeper powerless...

Wonderful shot of the world wave style...

And the goalkeeper's lack of preparation for long-range shots...

In other words, it takes a bit of luck to score from a long shot, and most of Schalke 04's shots are 25 meters away. As long as Abbiati concentrates, it is difficult for Schalke players to score.

So Pirlo and Allegri have secretly raised their vigilance, maybe this is a tactical routine carefully arranged by Schalke 04?
But at least at the end of the first half, Pirlo did not see the opponent displaying a sudden dark hand, it seems that the opponent only knows the long-range attack method.

Without Rakitic as a partner, Sun Wu's range of activities is much larger than usual, and his figure appears in every corner of the frontcourt, using passing and running to create long-range opportunities for his teammates one after another.

Although Hitzlsperger was not good enough in organizing the offense, his long-range shot forward was quite threatening. In the 41st minute, his long-range shot forced Abbiati to make a save again.

It's not that AC Milan doesn't want to change this situation, but the opponent is like crazy. Once they enter the 40-meter area, they start to itch. Even the full-back Pekarik comes and shoots within the goal range.

AC Milan is really afraid that quantitative changes will lead to qualitative changes. In case the opponent shoots a world wave... The midfield and backcourt are deployed layer by layer, reducing the attacking manpower in the frontcourt, with a posture of lying down and being beaten.

There were boos from the stands at the San Siro Stadium, this time for the home team and Allegri.

In stoppage time in the first half, Sun Wu broke through and passed back from the ribs. Farfan shot directly without stopping the ball, and the ball slid out of the goal.

The referee blew the whistle to end the first half.

"It's unimaginable. AC Milan took two shots in the first 5 minutes, and there was no more shot data after that." Zhan Jun was a little surprised by the situation in the first half, "while Schalke 04 had a total of [-] shots, ten of them Three were shots from long range, four of which were within goal range."

"In the first half, the two sides took a total of [-] shots. This statistic is a bit scary." Zhang Lu said with a wry smile.

Zhan Jun concluded: "All in all, Schalke 04's tactics are very weird, maybe there are other secrets, rest for 15 minutes, let us see what changes they will have in the second half, of course, the changes will be brought about by their core Sun Wu .”
