Chapter 188(1/2)
“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL!”
"Philip-Inzagi!! He scored for AC Milan! One-to-one! AC Milan equalized the score!"
"The goal came so easily... Inzagi! He was unmarked! Such an opportunity means a goal for him... He succeeded! A crucial goal!"
After scored the goal, Inzaji started running. After running for a few steps, he opened his arms and knelt on the ground, looking up at the sky. But he saw a face, which was a flamboyant face. The young man laughed and pressed down at him.
"Zhang-No."
"Haha, I'm here."
"Fuck--"
Amid Inzagi's whine, more AC Milan players flocked to put the two at the bottom. In fact, this is a way of celebration that football players like very much. Whether they are being pressed or being pressed, the former is usually the heroes of the goal and the heroes of the team when they are in this way, and the latter is because they are happy for the team's outstanding performance. Of course, being able to suppress others is also a reason to be happy, right?
Seeing Inzagi scored, he tied the score.
The bench of AC Milan has become a sea of joy, and everyone is embracing each other around you. This goal is at the right time, and it is great to be able to quickly equalize the score. What's more, the situation on the court just now was not very good, and this goal seems even more precious!
In contrast to the joyful atmosphere on AC Milan, Juventus' bench and coaching seat were silent. Ranieri was a little disappointed. He bit his lower lip tightly and stared at the big screen. The whole process of AC Milan's goal was replayed just now.
Zhang Yang's sudden breakthrough dribbling attracted the attention of the entire Juventus defense line. Juventus players surrounded and blocked Zhang Yang near the sideline, thinking that the beast had been tied into the cage, but Zhang Yang actually passed the ball out. Ambrosini's shovel at the front point had already scared Juventus' defense line, and Inzagi at the back point had completely missed!
Let the ‘King of Opportunists’ Inzaji hit the empty door without anyone guarding, and the result is conceivable!
There is no doubt about the goal!
Although Inzaghi scored this goal, most of the credit for this goal was Zhang Yang, who dribbled the ball and assisted it!
Zhang Yang!
Ranieli was chanting this name in his heart. He felt that this Chinese guy was really a disaster. In the first half of the season, Juventus was killed by AC Milan at San Siro Stadium. This was not counting, but it also caused a fight between players. Juventus players were suspended on a large scale, which has been resentful by Ranieli. He believed that if it weren't for the impact of this matter, Juventus's performance this season would have been better. At least, at this time, he had already locked in the Champions League tickets, rather than having to work so hard like this game.
In the stands box, when Inzaghi scored the ball, Berlusconi smiled on his face. AC Milan scored a goal and tied the score. This is indeed worthy of happiness. Inzaghi. Berlusconi has always claimed that he is an Inzaghi fan. This is why he was willing to pay for the sky-high price to bring Inzaghi from Juventus to AC Milan.
"This ball is so wonderful." Barbara also applauded.
"Of course, Pipo is always able to appear in the most suitable place at the most suitable time and complete the most deadly blow." Berlusconi paused, "Of course, Zhang Yang's performance is also good."
"Don't you dislike him?" Barbara asked with a smile.
"I don't like his character very much." Berlusconi frowned, "but his football talent is indeed worthy of appreciation."
Barbara did not speak anymore, but stood up and looked into the stadium. She saw the young man who was getting up from the "oppression" of everyone, looking at Inzaji, laughing.
He looks really happy.
Back to the game.
Juventus has performed very well this season, but this team has just returned to Serie A from the second division and is basically still in the process of reconstruction. Their strength is still far from AC Milan.
The biggest gap is psychologically. Juventus is a strong veteran team, and there are still some old players in the team. However, at the same time, there are many newly promoted and newly introduced players in the team, and their psychological qualities are still far from those tried and tested champion players.
The competition with opponents like AC Milan is not only a contest of strength, but also a contest of morale and heart.
After AC Milan fell behind in the score, even though it was facing Juventus's siege, the situation was very passive, but it was not too panic. Instead, AC Milan's counterattack just now was very exciting, which made Juventus panic and eventually lost points.
After the game started again in the middle circle and was equalized by AC Milan, Juventus was psychologically hit. The rhythm of the game was chaotic. After several consecutive pass mistakes, the initiative of the game gradually lost. Morale is the thing that has increased and decreased.
"Zhang Yang's breakthrough and pass made us see the shadow of Ronaldinho." The commentator was still praising AC Milan's goal just now.
Zhang Yang's long-distance raid instigated that fatal counterattack. Inzaghi equalized the score for AC Milan, allowing the game to truly return to the same starting line. Juventus' advantage after the opening game began to gradually become smaller.
In the last ten minutes of the first half, AC Milan head coach Ancelotti's tactics were adjusted again. He boldly set the defense line forward significantly and strengthened the offensive. Then the game turned into AC Milan's attack against Juventus at the Alp Stadium.
"Sidorf - he tried to shoot from a long distance at the front of the penalty area... the ball was above the crossbar."
"Favali comes up, he passes the ball... Zhang Yang heads the ball and rubs it... Lerotale pushes the ball out... Ambrosini makes a cross from the side, Inzagi shoots... and misses the post."
"Zhang Yang shot directly from the left side of the penalty area, the ball was saved by Buffon, and Inzaghi volleyed in the penalty area... The football was touched by Chiellini and missed... the corner kick."
Juventus' penalty area was in a panic. Seeing AC Milan possibly overtake the score at any time, Juventus coach Ranieri was anxious, and fans' exclamations came from the stands from time to time.
Juventus' defense showed excellent form at this time, with central defender Chiellini and Lerotale saving continuous rescues, and goalkeeper Buffon's performance was even more critical. As Piero said, with Buffon on the court, Juventus' defense will be improved at least one level. One of the best goalkeepers in the world is definitely not a fictional reputation.
Although AC Milan's offensive is strong, it is always a little bit far from the goal, either falling out or being cleared.
When the game entered the 39th minute, AC Milan's temporary patchwork defense finally showed a flaw. Originally, Ancelotti wanted the whole team to push the battle away from the penalty area of his side to prevent Juventus from attacking his weak defense at one end, but Juventus still seized an opportunity.
After receiving Pirlo's pass, Zhang Yang deceived Grigra and then took a long shot. The football flew towards the goal. Buffon made a wonderful save and saved the football.
AC Milan's corner kick.
Pirlo took the corner kick, Ambrosini grabbed the ball, but the shot was too straight, Buffon directly hugged the ball, and then the Juventus goalkeeper threw the ball and launched a quick counterattack.
After receiving the football, Sissoko passed the ball to Thiago, who passed the ball to Camoranesi. Camoranesi turned the ball and looked ahead, and suddenly made a direct pass like a scalpel in the middle. At this moment, Piero suddenly quickly stepped forward to form a single shot.
AC Milan's goalkeeper Karachi, who started today, reacted quickly and quickly attacked and saved Piero's shot. However, AC Milan's central defender returned to defense by half a beat, but he did not catch up with the second point. The ball was swam into the middle of Trezege and easily pushed into the empty goal.
“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAL!!”
"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAL! Trezege! A fatal blow!"
"2:1! Juventus has surpassed the score again!"
Trezeguet overtook Juventus in difficult circumstances.
"Trezeguet!"
"Trezeguet!"
"Trezeguet!"
The Alp Stadium, which was still in a panic atmosphere, suddenly turned into a sea of joy. The Juventus fans in the stands of the Alp Stadium, as well as many Juventus fans in front of the TV, kept shouting the names of their goal-scoring heroes.
Zhang Yang and his teammates were helplessly watching the Juventus man who was celebrating the goal crazy. AC Milan had the advantage on the field just now, but Juventus scored the last goal, which made them a little depressed.
"Hurry up and kick off! Is the first half still over? Let's strive to equalize the score!" Inzaji explained to Zhang Yang.
Zhang Yang nodded. He understood Inzaji's meaning and tried to score a goal before the end of the first half and equalize the score. In this way, the pressure in the second half will be much smaller, otherwise, if the second half will start with a score of one goal behind, the situation will be worse.
Ancelotti's face was not very good. The team had a good offensive just now, but he lost the ball.
Ranieli's face turned red when he saw Trezeguet score. He really didn't expect the team to overtake the score again before the end of the first half. Juventus was suppressed by AC Milan just now, and he was worried that Juventus might concede the ball again.
"Today's game is very strange. The side that has the advantage often loses the ball. The side that is passively beaten has a high efficiency in grabbing counterattacks." Flores shook his head and said, "The temporary patchwork of AC Milan's defense line finally went wrong. Camoranesi's straight pass was very timely."
Juventus took the lead, Ranieri looked at the time on the scoreboard. Before the end of the first half, if the injury stop time is included, at most five minutes. In five minutes, Juventus must hold on to these five minutes and enter the halftime break with the advantage of one goal. Juventus will be more beneficial in the second half.
Ranieli immediately called Lerotale to the sidelines and conveyed his tactical adjustment through the mouth of the veteran defender.
In the final stage of the first half, the team retreated and strived to maintain the advantage of this goal.
Hearing Ranieli say this, Lerotale nodded and honestly conveyed tactical adjustments. Although Ranieli has low prestige in Juventus, the head coach is the head coach after all, and the head coach's tactical adjustments are the will. In addition, Lerotale also feels that it is indeed time to shrink the defense.
AC Milan is not affected too much by conceding the ball. Instead of complaining and being upset there, it is better to hurry up and try to score quickly to equalize the score.
Pirlo dribbles the ball in the frontcourt.
He looked ahead, looking for the pass.
It happened that Isidorf came up from behind, and Thiago's attention was disturbed by Sidorf's running position. Pirlo grabbed this gap and passed the ball, tricking Thiago into diverting the center of gravity, and then suddenly pretending to break through from the opposite direction!
Thiago wanted to stop him, but saw that Pirlo did not make a breakthrough, but passed the football out, and the target was not Seedorf, but Zhang Yang!
Zhang Yang received the ball, turned around, and immediately accelerated the breakthrough. Sisoko, who was defending him, was too close to him and had no time to react. Zhang Yang had already passed by Sisoko.
Juventus' defensive formation shrinks very tightly, and the distance between the midfield and the defender is very, very close. For most teams, this defensive formation can fully compress the space at the front of the penalty area and not give the opponent's forwards the chance to take the ball calmly. At the same time, due to the contraction of the formation, the distance between the three lines is not far, and when counterattacks are needed, the football can be quickly and accurately passed to the teammates' feet without any other means except for blind big feet.
This tactic is not only found by Ranieri's Juventus, which is Juventus' tradition. Such defense is often at a loss for ordinary offensive players. After Juventus leads, it is often tried and tested.
But now, it has become the best stage to fulfill and spread its youth freely.
Because the defensive players are close, once someone breaks through, the defenders behind often have to intercept the ball or get stuck at the first time. He hesitation may make the opponent get in. This is exactly what Zhang Yang, who has a very fast foot speed, can rely entirely on his own rapid change of direction to break out of the opponent's encirclement.
Having just applied Sissoko, facing Grigra who was intercepting the ball, Zhang Yang gently tweaked his right foot and moved his body horizontally, leading the football over Grigra's feet.
Just after passing Grigra, Sissoko came up from behind. Zhang Yang seemed to have eyes on the back of his head. Suddenly, he stopped and blocked Sissoko who was chasing back.
Seeing Zhang Yang passing by two consecutive times, Chiellini immediately came forward decisively to set up the defense.
Zhang Yang, however, in the narrow space, he chose to pass the ball incredibly. The football went to the left and the person walked from the right. The football almost continued to roll forward against the sideline, while he himself flew past the other side.
This made Chiellini stunned because he had never expected that Zhang Yang could pass the ball in such a small space. In addition, even if the ball was scored, the breaker would usually kick the ball from the inside instead of the outside, which would prevent the football from leaving the sideline. Zhang Yang would do the opposite and catch Chiellini off guard.
A breath of breath sounded at the Alp Stadium, and they were frightened by the magical performance of this Chinese player they disliked. One person beat three Juventus defensive players, and when did the kid's skills in this small space be so outstanding!
The man ball was split, and Chiellini passed, and Zhang Yang caught up with the football. He looked up at the situation in the penalty area.
In front of the penalty area, Seedorf and Inzaghi seemed to have received a signal and rushed towards the goal together!
"Be careful that he passes..." Before Buffon could finish his words, he saw Zhang Yang trolling the ball inside, and then swung his right foot.
Chiellini, who had just been scored by a ball, rushed towards Zhang Yang again in panic.
Lerotale and Molinaro rushed towards Inzaghi and Sedorf!
Buffon glanced at Zhang Yang, but from the corner of his eyes was observing the positions of Inzaghi and Seedorf... He predicted that Zhang Yang was definitely a cross because... because of the shot from that position, it was almost impossible to score a goal!
Buffon's judgment is not wrong, but: 'It's almost impossible to score a goal', but another meaning of this sentence is, 'It's not necessarily impossible to score a goal'!
Zhang Yang's foot was not a cross from the inner arc ball, but a volley of the outside instep!
At the same time, Buffon rushed to the outside, preparing to stop the cross. As soon as he flew out, he saw the football flying over from the other side of his side. The speed was so fast. He didn't even have time to turn his head to see the situation behind him. But this was no longer necessary, because he heard the cheers of other AC Milan in the penalty area...heard the crazy roar of the Chinese boy!
To be continued...
