Golden Greenery

Chapter 055: The old man Fusidov

At the school sports meeting, you gritted your teeth and fought hard in the 2,000-meter long-distance race. When you saw the finish line not far away, you told yourself: That's where it is, and you have to cross there no matter what. So, you did it, but after you crossed the finish line, you no longer had any motivation or strength, and you no longer had any desire to run forward.

This finish line is the psychological node you set for yourself. The World Cup that just passed was the node for many veterans of AC Milan.

Clarence Seedorf has maintained his peak form for ten years. Since joining Real Madrid at the age of 20, he has been one of the best and most comprehensive midfielders in the world. He scored a shocking goal against Barcelona at the Nou Camp. A long shot would make him immortal.

If it weren't for the awkward attributes in the Dutchman's genes, Seedorf might have been able to stay at Real Madrid for the rest of his life.

After moving to Inter Milan, he was caught up in the black hole period of stars. Lippi, who originally gave him a promise, ignored him. There were basically no highlights in his four years of playing. This is not surprising. Lippi and later Cooper were not good at using creative midfielders. Without Pirlo, they were almost wiped out in Inter Milan at that period. But Galliani, who had a keen eye, traded Koko with Inter Milan for Seedorf, which became another of Galliani's proudest achievements.

You know, at that time, Koko was much more famous than Seedorf. He was the perfect left back to succeed Maldini and looked like a talented person. The whole world thought that AC Milan had made a loss. However, Seedorf reached another peak of his career in the next four years, while the prodigal Koko was left with only Lang in Inter Milan. In the last four years combined, he has not played in double figures as a substitute. What people remember is his unique number '77' on his back.

The late Inter Milan president Facchetti regretted only slapping himself in the face, because Keke's salary was much higher than Seedorf's. A few years ago, Facchetti had earnestly persuaded Keke: Please go to another team? Or just retire? It’s not easy for us either…

Keke is holding on to the contract and will not pay attention to you no matter what you say. He is determined not to leave. Inter Milan has one of the top five big contracts. Whoever doesn't want it is a fool. You can't find such a good income anywhere. If it weren't for his big family and big business, I guess Facchetti would have really gritted his teeth and said: Forget it, let's go, we don't need the car...

In fact, having said that, from Rivera Meazza to Pirlo Favalli, Mao and I have had many transactions in history. AC Milan has almost never taken advantage of it, and Inter Milan has almost never taken advantage. When it comes to how they look at players, the two managements are vastly different. Seedorf and Koko exchange each other, which is one of the most classic works.

After coming to AC Milan, Seedorf no longer became a troublemaker. If he dared to cause trouble, the Knights of the Round Table could kill him with one hand, and Milano did not have another Dutchman to accompany him to make trouble. Stam even I didn't even bother to talk to him. The two of them didn't deal with each other very well in the Dutch national team. If they wanted to gain a foothold, they had to rely on the support of those around the round table.

Over the years, even if the stone is immersed in water, the edges and corners have been smoothed away. Stam returned to his hometown in the summer, and Seedorf is now Milano's famous SpongeBob SquarePants, loved by everyone.

But good popularity cannot change the fact of serious regression. As people age, their muscles and bones no longer function as energy. Seedorf's main reason is physical. His technical awareness is still there, but his running ability and functions such as confrontation, reaction, and recovery have plummeted. Do you believe that if he were to be as B2B as he was in previous years, Guan Xi would die directly on the court?

But AC Milan can't do without him, because among all the attacking midfielders currently, only Seedorf has the ability to seal the final pass from 30 meters. Kaka is an attacking midfielder, and his role on the field is more like half a forward. After losing Rui Costa, Ancelotti originally placed his hope on Gourcuff, but as soon as he came on the field, he went to steal Pirlo's business. He was so angry that he wanted to slap him in the face with the sole of his shoe and scold him. He still couldn't understand, the two of them were talking in broken English.

Of course Zhuoyang can pass the ball, but he is the forward appointed by Prime Minister Bei. In fact, if Zhuo Yang Yuezu hadn't done a lot of wonderful passes and assists on his behalf, AC Milan would have been paralyzed.

In AC Milan's tactics, the figure who makes the last pass at the front of the penalty area is indispensable, so it is Seedorf who is used now, and he is also used when not.

AC Milan, with its dignified status and square steps, has never been known for its fighting spirit, but their opponent today, Inter Milan, is tough and tough, and their creativity and control ability in the midfield and frontcourt are not bad at all. As a result, AC Milan's short-term angry counterattack was immediately suppressed, and it still formed a comprehensive passive situation.

Within ten minutes, Kaka and Zhuoyang played for each other, but their two volleys from the front of the penalty area were both thrown over the crossbar by Cesar. The two brothers were a bit unable to break into the penalty area today, not only because the four-man midfielder was extremely difficult to deal with after Inter Milan retreated, but in Zhuoyang's view, Inter Milan's defense today was simply impeccably matched.

From right to left, Maicon, Materazzi, Cordoba, Grosso, they all look natural, with no flaw in their head or feet. They are much more reasonable than their own defense line which is brilliant but lacks hardness. . Coupled with the fact that Julio Cesar, who has the face of an old farmer but is actually reincarnated as an octopus, the pair of A-meters are in trouble.

Dida has already planned to announce his retirement from the Brazilian national team at some time. Cesar, who is deeply liked by the new head coach Dunga, will choose the Brazilian national team.

The offense was difficult, and AC Milan's defensive pressure was also great. Inter Milan's two wings were too lively, with Grosso and Maicon on the left and right one after another. Jankulovski and Cafu were very weak today.

The 25-year-old Maicon is a star right back that has emerged in Brazil in recent years. He has already taken over from the old captain Cafu in the Brazilian national team. Caxiang will also announce his retirement from the national team at the right time. It’s not even modest to say that Maicon already has the vague intention of being the number one right back in today’s football.

He is a typical Brazilian full-back, his speed and explosiveness are at the track and field level, his physical strength is at the NBA level, and his skills are...Brazilian. A senior expert commented: Maicon is a person who can redefine full-backs.

Because there is no full-time winger, in order to contain the unscrupulous Grosso and Maicon, as well as the more arrogant second brother Montolivo, Zhuo Yang and Kaká were busy in the rest of the first half, and Seedorf could not count on them. , the two brothers could only keep going up and down to help their full-backs hold down the position.

Because of their youth, Zhuo Yang and Kaka in AC Milan are now considered to have excellent physical fitness. Zhuo Yang is even more outstanding because he rested for a whole summer. Even so, when Farina blew the whistle to end the first half, the two brothers gasped and looked at each other helplessly: So damn tired!

The shameless Ancelotti made two substitutions directly at halftime. Gilardino and Maldini came on, replacing Oliveira and Yankulov, who were the smelliest and most deflated in the first half. Ski.

Oliveira has to bear more than 80% of the responsibility for the inability to open up the front offense. It's as if he didn't come today. Yankulovsky met the extremely flamboyant Maicon and was caught off guard and was crushed. In this way, Kaladze came to the left, and the Cavaliers went to the middle to partner with Neimei, which also increased the air defense capability of the penalty area.

However, as soon as the second half started, AC Milan was hit in the head again. The person wielding this stick is Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
