long live football

Chapter 185 Under the European Super Cup...

In football matches, the protagonists on the field are the players, and the protagonists off the field are the coaches.

Portillo hit the ball into the goal one second before, and at least five cameras aimed at the outside of the field in the second after that.

The distance between Carl and Ancelotti was only a few meters, and they were both standing there in suits and leather shoes.

Although one of them is handsome and the other is round, but in terms of momentum, they are evenly matched.

The England presenter dubbed it: "Beautiful."

Ancelotti has a plain personality and occasionally has a little humor. As long as the team is leading, he is smiling.

But now, there is no smile on the good old man's face.

An Shuai has been in the football world for decades, and has coached Juventus and Milan, two giants. He has such a straight face, which is quite scary to watch.

Not far away, the expression on Carl's face was also faint, not too surprised, let alone surprised, as if he knew this scene would happen a long time ago.

Only when people look closely can they see that there is a smile in his eyes.

……

Munich 1860 has gradually taken the initiative in the game. Their offense has a stronger overall sense, the passing line is extremely smooth, and there are many reception points. Every time they enter the frontcourt, they can sound the air defense alarm of AC Milan's entire defense line.

Although the Lions are becoming more and more aggressive, the sophisticated Milan will not be defeated so easily. They rely on the traditional Italian chain defense to block every attack of the opponent.

However, as time goes by, this situation is bound to change.

The more dexterous the machine, the easier it is to be destroyed after a long period of use.

Most of AC Milan's players are not young anymore, and most of the main players are over [-] years old. When the core of the playmaker is intercepted by the opponent, in order to save their energy, the Milan players will definitely reduce the number of breakthroughs and increase the number of long passes.

The long pass has a high turnover rate, and the backcourt players reduce their support to the frontcourt. Even the top striker will fall into a slump due to the lack of help from his teammates, and eventually exhaust his energy.

By the 60th minute of the game, the coaches of the two teams began to make substitutions again.

The difference is that the Munich 1860 coach was able to use substitutions to adjust some minor flaws on the pitch, while Milan coach Ancelotti was helpless in the face of various problems caused by the team's aging.

……

AC Milan's forwards Inzaghi and Pato are very anxious, because they have not had the opportunity to show their shooting talent since the game.

No matter how powerful a striker is, if the ammunition delivery line behind him is cut off, he can only watch the opponent's goal empty and anxious.

Milan's striker encountered this problem at this time.

Inzaghi is an opportunist.

The so-called opportunist is the kind of striker who can make full use of his teammates in the game, or seize the moment when the opponent makes a mistake to score a goal. This kind of person generally does not create opportunities by himself, and his dribbling and breakthrough abilities are not strong, but The sense of grabbing points and the sense of smell in front of the goal are top in the world. They always stay in the restricted area and wait for an opportunity.

With a thin body and strong defenders, he can shoot from an unbelievable angle to outsiders, and dare to play tricks again and again under the referee's "eyes"...

Inzaghi is such a player, he only has victory in his eyes.

The phrase "the ultimate goal of football is to score goals" is the best portrayal of his career.

Karl is undoubtedly very afraid of such a cunning forward like a fox.

So he asked his defenders to always pay attention to each other's movements, especially when Inzaghi slipped into the penalty area like a ghost, staring at him without blinking.

So although Inzaghi lingered in the Munich 1860 penalty area as always in the game, cruising on the edge of offside and not offside, but this time he still failed to find the loopholes in the Munich 1860 defense line, and did not find a gap to "steal the ball".

Although in the 61st minute, Inzaghi received a pass from his teammate Ambrosini, but because he was too defensive, his shot was relatively hasty and he failed to rewrite the score.

So he stood near the restricted area and began to worry.

Even if Inzaghi's sense of smell in front of the goal is the most sensitive in the world, he is still not good at breaking through. He will never be able to kill the goalkeeper like Ronaldo of Manchester United, rumbling towards the goalkeeper like a tank. Kill Buddha.

He has always been the kind of striker like an assassin, unable to do things beyond his ability.

Without the support of his teammates, Inzaghi could only look at the goal and sigh.

And the goalkeeper of Munich 1860, the blond kid who had been staring at him vigilantly in the first half, has relaxed now.With a lazy face, he glanced at Inzaghi for a long time, as if just to make sure that the other person was still staying in this half, without any fear at all.

The arrogant look made Inzaghi's teeth itch, and he cursed secretly, "Soul light!" Then he thought: If we have the ability, we will meet in the national team game, we will wait and see then!

As for Pato, another Milan player who is only 18 years old, his best personal skill is that he breaks through quickly, but without the support of his teammates, Pato can't do anything.

The Italian commentator has already begun to shake his head in advance: "The weak state of Inzaghi and Pato is the true portrayal of AC Milan's game. Unless a miracle happens, it will be difficult for Milan to do anything in the main game. Maybe Ancelotti You can start thinking about going to extra time or even a penalty shootout."

……

Time passed minute by minute, and finally there were less than 10 minutes left.

Some data in the game can also be roughly counted at this time.

The Italian commentator looked at the LCD screen of the workbench and broadcast some information just passed in by the director. After thinking for a while, he said into the microphone: "In fact, AC Milan is not at a disadvantage in terms of game statistics. The number of positives, the number of corner kicks and the ball possession rate are similar to those of Munich 1860, and even have a slight advantage, but only from the game scene, it is completely impossible to see that the Rossoneri has the upper hand - AC Milan has no data, is weak, Munich was on the offensive in 1860, and every attack was fatal."

"Why does AC Milan shoot more goals than Munich 1860 and have a slight advantage in ball possession, but they still can't control the rhythm of the game and are dragged away by their opponents?"

"Because they lost control of the midfield."

"In the second half, Ancelotti tried to open up the situation with a double striker consisting of Inzaghi and Pato, and 10 minutes ago he replaced Seedorf with Brocchi, who was almost unable to run, but Brocchi could Very little has been done. Speaking of it, there is only a single midfielder Kaka behind the Milan striker to provide support, and Pirlo is completely blocked by the opponent... Milan, who has lost the midfielder, how to give Inzaghi And Pato to provide support?"

"It can be seen from the data table that the number of long-range shots taken by Milan in the second half was double that of the first half, but the quality of these long-range shots was not high. In addition, 1860 Munich had a Koch who was comparable to Buffon. , Alas, Milan's shots have all turned into waves—there is no thunder but no rain."

"Speaking of it, Milan is still weak. The forwards are old and young. If they have a center like Drogba and Eto'o, they may change the game with their own strength..."

……

The substitute players of 1860 Munich were grinding on their seats like they had hemorrhoids.

They didn't talk to each other, but they all leaned forward, staring intently at the game on the field.

Occasionally, he cast a wistful glance at his boss, hoping that the other party would look back at him.

AC Milan has used up three substitutions, but Munich 1860 still has one.

They all want to be the only lucky ones to take part in this competition that is watched by the whole world.

Just like women often dream of Prince Charming, men actually dream too—they dream that they can become knights, guard what they want to protect, and if possible, make contributions and become heroes that everyone admires.

There is not much time left in the game, who can be the man chosen by the boss?

Everyone is anxiously looking forward to it.

They are not worried that Karl will only use two substitutions in this game-for such an important game against AC Milan, the head coaches will of course use all the useful weights in their hands to ensure that nothing goes wrong, even if it is just to delay a few minutes, The three substitutions must be used up!

The reason why the boss has not changed yet is probably because he is worried that the game will eventually be dragged into overtime.Substituting later can also allow 1860 Munich to take as much advantage as possible in the three 10-minute overtime.

Finally, when the hearts of the Lions players were trembling, Karl turned his head.

He searched the bench for a while, then pointed to a player and lifted his chin: "Robert, go warm up."

Lewandowski immediately widened his eyes a little, his face was like winning a 500 million jackpot.

The young players around looked at this lucky Polish kid with envy and envy.

……

As the game drew to a close and the two teams were at a stalemate, any new moves by either side would cause great commotion.

When Karl patted Lewandowski on the shoulder with one hand, and pointed to the court with the other hand to ask him something, the whole world was looking at the Polish teenager at the same time.

The commentators from all over the world frantically searched for information on the new No. 1860 of Munich 19, and then stuttered to the fans in front of the TV to read the name with a strong Eastern European style and Lewandowski's simple resume.

Owen, who was already physically exhausted, was relieved the moment he stepped off the turf.

He waved his right hand at the new recruit who was half a head taller than himself: "The game is up to you, come on."

Lewandowski clapped hands with Irving nervously, showing an unnatural smile: "Thank you."

A second before stepping onto the turf, Lewandowski squeezed his eyes shut.

When he opened his eyes again, he had already changed another expression.

Serious, earnest, tense, and ambitious.

……

Lewandowski's method of getting rid of tension is simple, even ridiculously simple.

That is like chanting a scripture, repeating a few important words in your mind non-stop.

If you read too much, other thoughts that you shouldn't have will be emptied out of your mind, and important things will be deeply engraved in his heart, and he will never forget them.

"Try to pass as much as possible, go forward, and pull AC Milan's defense out of the neutral position, and the opportunity will automatically appear at that time."

Lewandowski kept talking, and at the same time, his feet moved quickly in Milan's half. As long as he didn't have the ball, he would run to the neutral position, hoping to receive a pass from his teammate. If not, help attract It is also good to attract the attention of the opponent.

If AC Milan is compared to an exquisite machine, then it has turned from fast at the beginning to slow operation now, and even some parts that were originally useful have shown signs of aging...

86 minutes, 87 minutes... 89 minutes, 90 minutes... The game finally entered injury time.

Stoppage time by the fourth official: three and a half minutes.

"Three-and-a-half minutes is too little, at least 5 minutes is enough!" Whether it is Milan fans or Lions fans, as long as they are looking forward to a miracle, they are thinking so at the moment.

In the 91st minute, AC Milan launched the last attack. Nesta intercepted the ball from the left and passed it obliquely. Gattuso raised his foot and made a long pass. The football flew into the 1860 half. Defenders Dante and Ogo jointly intercepted, but Kaka had no choice but to volley with his left foot. The football bounced off the post and flew straight out of the baseline.

In the 92nd minute, 1860 Munich counterattacked.Portillo refused to waste a minute and a second, and directly dribbled the ball for a long-distance attack. After a two-for-one cooperation with Misimovic, he reached the Milan half in the blink of an eye.

Milan defenders Otto, Caladze and Nesta formed a siege to Portillo. Portillo raised his foot to pass the ball, but Nesta looked at the right time and fiercely intercepted the ball! There was a "bass"!Nesta's feet collided with Portillo's, but together they pushed the football away!

The referee stood aside, his eyes changing places every second, either the situation in Milan's penalty area or the watch on his wrist.

The time has come to the 93rd minute.

Pirlo rushed to catch the ball before Hummels, and tried to cross to teammate Odo on the left side of the penalty area.

Who would have thought that after Pirlo raised his foot, the pass went wrong!The football carried too much force, it directly brushed Otto's body, and ran towards the neutral behind him diagonally!

That small area happened to be guarded by no Milan players!

Opportunities come to those who are always ready.

Otto's eyes flickered, and he felt a figure flying past his eyes. He took a closer look, and it turned out to be a person wearing a blue and white jersey!

He felt that his breathing stopped at that moment, and after regaining his senses, he immediately rushed over desperately.

But the youth in blue had already raised his right foot to volley!

'If the angle is too far, you will definitely not enter, you will definitely not enter! 'During Otto's frenzied prayers, the football was hanging in the dead corner between the crossbar and the post, and went into the goal!

"GOOOOOOOOOAL!"

……

After scoring the goal, Lewandowski did not soon welcome the hugs and celebrations of his teammates, because his blow like a flying fairy that day shocked the people around him too much, and they failed to react quickly.

The defenders of Milan and the strikers of the Lions looked at the goal stupidly, and then looked at the referee, until the referee made a gesture to make a goal, and then blew the whistle for the end of the game as if rushing to the field. It was like the soul was re-injected into the body and stirred up.

"Buzzer! A goal at the buzzer shattered AC Milan's European mythology!"

"If you didn't see the number change on the scoreboard, it would be hard to believe that Milan really lost!"

"It's so risky. I bet that when the No. 1860 player of Munich 19 shot, the referee was already counting down the seconds. If the ball was ten seconds slower, it might be blown away! At that time, Milan and 1860 will have to Going to overtime..."

"Auston is amazing too! His substitution at the last moment is a stroke of genius!"

The camera gave a shot to Carl Oston, who was smiling and hugging the assistant coach outside the court, and the British commentator Andy Gray sighed: "Although this man has never set foot on the green grass, he is the leader. The man of everything."

"Robert Lewandowski, another star discovered by Orston, this young player from Poland who is only 19 years old is destined to become famous overnight."

On the court, the Munich 1860 players who have regained their sanity have already started the carnival.

Although many people are not familiar with the newcomer Lewandowski, this does not prevent them from expressing their enthusiasm for him. Several excited players who could not restrain their emotions have already shouted "We are the champions!" One side rushed towards Lewandowski.

Fortunately, Lewandowski was tall and strong, and was dragged by three or four players without falling to the ground.

And around Karl, there are all kinds of cheers. No matter how old or how stable the coaches and players are, they can't control their happy feelings at this moment: "Tomorrow! We will meet tomorrow!" Be the focus of the world!"

"We defeated the powerful AC Milan! Hahahaha, are we the European champions?"

"We are the European champions! And the only one!" Both the Champions League champions and the Europa League champions can be called European champions, and the winner among them can be said to be the only European champion this year.

While weeping silently, the Rossoneri fans comforted themselves: "At any rate, we still have the Club World Cup to play, which is a competition that only the top teams from the six continents can participate in. If we win the Club World Cup, we will be the world champions... …I don’t care about European champions!”

The expressions of the Milan players were very numb. They walked off the field quietly, as if they had accepted the result, and they seemed to have not recovered from the game just now, and they still didn't believe that they lost.

The celebrating players were clamoring behind Carl, and spread the noise to Carl's ears unscrupulously, but they were very measured, but they didn't really bother their coach.

So Karl, who is alone, and the players around him who are gathered together really form a very unique picture.

And in the next second, a more rare shot appeared: a group of Milan players with their heads down walked down the field and passed by Karl.Red, black and blue and white, joy and depression, are perfectly divided into two worlds by the body of the coach of the Lions team. Coupled with the crowded stands in the distance and the green turf, there is an indescribable feeling. The artistic conception is here.

Karl's gaze stayed on the body of a certain Milan player for a short moment, and then he took it back.

But this moment was also captured.

"The Sun" reporter Gary Jeb put away his camera, looked at the photo on the LCD screen, and blurted out a sentence that had been brewing in his heart for a long time: "The old king is dead, and the new king will be established."
