Zhigao Supreme: The Legend of Greenery

Chapter 296 Lost in San Siro 2
Kaka's goal ignited the passion of the San Siro Stadium, and tens of thousands of Milan fans issued a huge cheer.Amidst the cheers, Kaka and his teammates were celebrating crazily. His goal rewritten the total score to 5-4. They only needed to score one more goal to advance to the final.

Yu Liang, who was standing in the backcourt, frowned and made an apologetic gesture to his teammates.It was not a tactical arrangement that he suddenly dribbled forward just now, but he was anxious when he saw that the opening minutes had passed and he had not yet been able to form a shot.

In the tactical arrangement before the game, Ferguson required that in the first half, he should focus on defending and counterattacking, and launch a counterattack without conceding the ball.He and Fletcher's task in the backcourt is to defend and limit Kaka's performance.

5-3 and 5-4 seem to be only one ball apart, but they have a considerable impact on the morale of the players on both sides.Yu Liang's impulsiveness put Manchester United into a more passive situation. To change this situation, they can only strive for goals.

Ferguson, who had been sitting on the bench with his hands in his pockets, ignored the downpour and walked straight to the sidelines frowning.

The role of the team coach is not only reflected in the team's performance, in many cases he is the source of strength of a team, he is the spiritual pillar of a team.

Ferguson knows the most important thing now is to score goals.

But before scoring goals, he has a more important thing to do.

That is to stabilize the morale of the army.

The pressure of away games is very high. Even experienced players may not be able to adapt to away games sometimes.

What's more, in a stadium like San Siro, amidst the boos of tens of thousands of fans, going to the game in such bad weather.

The continuous offensive in the opening game was not smooth, and the opponent's continuous offensive threatened their own goal. Everyone would become anxious in their hearts. This conceded goal is a good proof of this.

If the players are playing football with anxiety now, the effect will only be worse.

Walking to the sidelines, Ferguson called Ronaldo, who was closest to him, and said loudly in his ear: "Steady the rhythm! Tell Paul to control the rhythm of the game, we have plenty of time! Let everyone calm down first!"

Returning to the field, Ronaldo quickly conveyed Ferguson's words to his teammates.

After the re-kick-off in the middle circle, Scholes tried to strengthen the control in the midfield, but the effect was not very good.

The AC Milan players who scored a goal and were close to the score wanted to take advantage of the victory to chase after it. Naturally, it was impossible for the Manchester United players to control the ball as desired in the midfield.Amidst the cheers of tens of thousands of fans, they launched a high-intensity press in the midfield.

Under the high-intensity pressing of AC Milan players, Manchester United players can only increase their passing speed.

After avoiding Gattuso's tackle near the center circle, Scholes chose to pass back. He hoped to use the depth of the pitch to relieve the pressure.

But his ball had just passed to Yu Liang's feet, and Yu Liang directly chose to kick and make a long pass.

With the speeding up of pass control, under the high-intensity oppressive press of AC Milan, Yu Liang's heart became anxious again.

His long ball didn't go over the top and Nesta made a stop.

AC Milan launched a counterattack again.

Pirlo made a long pass from the penalty area, over Brown's head, and Inzaghi rushed into the penalty area and rushed to the ball's landing point.

boom!
The San Siro stadium is boiling again.

But the goal that AC Milan was expecting did not appear. With the help of Brown, Van der Sar successfully grabbed the ball before Inzaghi, and Manchester United escaped.

A person can make mistakes, but if he makes the same mistake continuously, it is unforgivable.

Standing in the rain, Ferguson saw Yu Liang's irresponsible long pass and sent the ball to Nesta's feet, and immediately roared, "Brain, brain, use your brain!"

"It seems that Ferguson is very dissatisfied with Yu Liang's performance in this game, but from the beginning to now, Yu Liang's performance in the backcourt is indeed substandard, and he made mistakes in two consecutive long passes."

Duan Xuan, the commentator of CCTV, saw Yu Liang's poor performance, and also showed a worried look on his face.

"I hope he can adjust his state as soon as possible."

Yu Liang glanced at the distraught Ferguson on the sidelines, and took a deep breath. He needs to calm down now.

The game continues.

Seeing Yu Liang's impatience, Van der Sar sent the ball directly to Fletcher.

Fletcher quickly passed the ball to Scholes.

Facing Pirlo, Scholes turned away from him and passed the ball to Ronaldo on the right.

Ronaldo received the ball and immediately attracted AC Milan to double-team the defense.

After Odo blocked Ronaldo's breakthrough route, Gattuso, who rushed from the side, stretched out his foot and stabbed at the football under Ronaldo's feet. While colliding, he rationally used his body to knock Ronaldo away Finished the steal.

boom!
Watching Ronaldo being knocked to the ground, the Milan fans in the San Siro Stadium immediately cheered.

After stealing the ball, Gattuso once again showed his long pass ability. With a long pass, he accurately found Kaka who was going forward in the middle.

After unloading the ball, Kaka changed direction and threw away Fletcher.

After seeing Kaka get rid of Fletcher easily, Yu Liang rushed to Kaka immediately.

In the first round of the game, he has seen Kaka's outstanding performance.So while rushing towards Kaka, he also had to beware of Kaka's sudden change of direction.

Seeing Kaka suddenly change direction to the right, Yu Liang immediately moved a step to the right.

Kaka then dunked the ball to the left, and then passed the ball.

Pirlo received the ball on the left side, shot directly from outside the penalty area and missed the post.

Manchester United attack.

From the beginning to now, most of the offenses have been launched from the right, but the effect has been minimal. Once Ronaldo catches the ball, he will basically fall into a double-team.So this time Scholes distributed the ball to Giggs on the left, hoping to open the situation from the left, but the result was the same, and Giggs on the left was also facing a double-team.On the right, Odo and Gattuso froze Ronaldo, on the left, Jankulovski and Ambrosini froze Giggs.Even if Giggs can quickly transfer the ball to Scholes' feet, it is difficult for Scholes to open the situation in the middle.This is due to the excellent defensive capabilities of AC Milan midfielders Gattuso and Ambrosini. When Ronaldo on the right has no ball, Gattuso can easily stare at him, and vice versa.

Although Scholes' forward offensive ability is good, vertical breakthroughs are not what he is good at.

Facing Gattuso's defense, unable to form a quick breakthrough, they naturally lost the ability to sneak attack.

But caught in a positional battle and unable to get support, he was alone in the midfield.

Soon the midfielder was firmly under the control of AC Milan players.

Manchester United, which lost control of the midfield, was pierced again in the No. 30 minute.

Under the continuous attack of AC Milan, Manchester United made a mistake in the rear, Heinze passed back, and Vidic slipped when making a clearance, and did not kick far.After Pirlo got the ball, he turned around and wiped away the pressing Heinze, and found his teammate Seedorf accurately with a cross.

"AC Milan scored again, Seedorf, Seedorf scored his third goal in the UEFA Champions League this season, a goal worth a lot of money! AC Milan rewritten the total score to 5-5 , if this score is maintained until the end, then AC Milan will advance to the final with three away goals!"

The total score was equalized, and Manchester United's players became more impatient.

However, in the remaining 15 minutes of the first half, they were eager to attack and made frequent pass errors. Not only did they fail to form a threatening offense, they almost lost the ball again.

After the whistle sounded for the end of the first half, Yu Liang and his teammates left the court in a hurry.
