Chapter 093 Difficult Moments in Milan (Page 1/1)

The Mediterranean has entered winter, but for AC Milan, this is an eventful year. The team is full of injuries, and the external environment is turbulent. In the Serie A league, it has been dropped by as many as 20 points to the leader Inter Milan, and the ranking has dropped to ninth. This makes AC Milan very embarrassed.

There is definitely no need to think about winning the championship this season. We have only played a little over a quarter of the schedule, and the points difference is so big. Moreover, Inter Milan is frighteningly stable and remains undefeated so far this season. But if you want to give up the league, what will happen if you qualify for the Champions League next season?

Not to mention the championship, competing for the top four seems to be very difficult at the moment. The team's defense has too many hidden dangers, and all the mid-range teams in previous years are coming this year. For a team like Milan, qualification for the Champions League is not only the bottom line of competitive performance, but also the bottom line of competitive performance. The guarantee of the club's business strategy, after all, the Champions League is the leading event in terms of commercial revenue and market influence.

But given the current predicament of the team, forcing the team to hit the top four in the league may affect their status in the Champions League this season. Compared with the difficulties in the league, AC Milan has been smooth sailing in the Champions League. Moreover, the environment in the Champions League is relatively simple now, making it easier to exert its strength and influence.

Therefore, the current situation is really a dilemma for AC Milan.

Sure enough, a few days later, in the twelfth round of the away game against Empoli, AC Milan, which was extremely embarrassed in terms of employment, lost 0:1 away. Nesta, Gattuso, Serginho, Ambrosini, Kaladze, Favalli, Simic, Gilardino, Oliveira, Borriello, Zhuoyang, with their own differences Due to his absence due to various reasons, Ancelotti's ability to put together a reasonably reasonable lineup is already quite evident.

The rest of the team is not desperate, but there are no underdogs in Serie A, not to mention that Empoli has remained unbeaten for five consecutive rounds and only conceded two goals in these five games. In the game, AC Milan's fossil-level defense appeared together again, and it was remarkable that they played the entire game.

Inzaghi and Kaká continued their bad luck from the previous game. They continued to struggle with the goal post, while Pirlo was in a sluggish state and kept making mistakes in the midfield. Maldini personally went to the frontcourt in the last five minutes, and both shots were quite threatening. However, Empoli striker and former Milan player Saudati scored with a supplementary shot in the 66th minute of the second half, making all AC Milan's efforts look so sad.

Two days later, minor injuries and illnesses in the team began to gradually recover, which gave Ancelotti a lot of money when arranging the fifth round of the Champions League group stage to face French Ligue 1 Lille at home. However, because AC Milan has already guaranteed qualification and is definitely first in the group, this game has become a warm-up battle for many substitutes and injured players.

Because Zhuoyang was at the forefront of the storm, he was protected by Ancelotti. He sat on the bench wrapped in a coat and cheered. On his left and right were Kaká and Pirlo. This is a line worth 200 million. bench.

Kaka is indeed tired.

In the new season, he has played the most time in the team. Although the youthful Master Ka has not shown much fatigue, Milan laboratory monitoring shows that his physical function is not far from the critical value. Kaka is different from others. Nowadays, the peerless duo are figures that the entire Milan cannot afford to hurt. Whether it is a Champions League outside the wall or a desperate survival in the league, Milan cannot do without them.

It's not that Pirlo is tired, but he has suffered the lowest state correction in recent years. Since 2004, Pirlo has entered the peak period of his career. No matter what the records of AC Milan and the Italian national team are, the melodious melody of Pirlo, the chief 'metronome' of world football, cannot be hidden. Speed ​​and slowness reached their peak during the World Cup in the summer. The Italian national team was able to firmly control the tactical rhythm in front of any opponent, and Pirlo took the greatest credit.

What goes up must come down. After the brilliance of the summer and the psychological blow of Calciopoli, it is not surprising that Pirlo is now depressed or even depressed. Zhuoyang sometimes saw Pirlo making inexplicable mistakes during training. He secretly wondered: Could it be that Mr. Pi also encountered a bottleneck? He is also going to build a foundation and become an immortal?

However, after inquiring about Pirlo, it is obvious that he is not the same as he was back then, because Pirlo does not have that kind of "wall" feeling, he simply cannot feel excited. The Milan laboratory also showed that Pirlo does not have strong adrenaline secretion. The muscle and nerve responses are slightly sluggish, which is a normal state callback. At that time, Zhuoyang's examination showed that everything was normal.

AC Milan has no desire for this game, but their opponent Lille still has to work hard for their prospects of qualifying for the Champions League. The three of them are like three turtles, biting each other and interlocking, and they still have a chance to compete for second place in the group. name hope.

In the 7th minute of the first half, Zhuoyang's 'old' friend, Lille midfielder Bodmer, shot a long shot from 30 meters away. Milan substitute goalkeeper Karachi missed the ball, and Odenwige followed up with a left-footed shot. Breaking the goal, 0:1.

Karachi is responsible for taking the shot, but the defender's lack of concentration is also an important reason for conceding the ball, allowing the opponent's forward to easily escape and form a supplementary shot. Furthermore, the two defensive midfielders Brocchi and Ambrosini were also lax in defending the 30-meter line at the front of the penalty area, allowing Bodmer to easily launch a long-range shot here without interference. Therefore, conceding the ball is never purely a matter of the goalkeeper or the central defender.

In the 16th minute, Inzaghi received a corner kick from Gourcuff and hit the goalpost again with his header. This was the 15th time AC Milan hit the goalpost in all competitions since the new season. , I don’t even know which god I offended.

Ji Taozi, who was partnered with Jiuye today, was in good condition. The front line rushed left and right, causing a lot of trouble for the opponent. Apart from not scoring, Gilardino finally showed the appearance of a qualified center forward for a wealthy team. Yes, except for life and death without scoring...

The two-game suspension within the team is actually a good thing for Ji Taozi, which has completely awakened him from the illusion of being Milan's natural first striker after Sheva. The 24-year-old young man has not yet rested on his laurels. When it comes to resting on one's laurels, Milan striker Inzaghi is much more qualified than him, let alone Zhuo Yang, who has dominated the world in the past two years.

The fact is obvious. Now Milan's number one striker can only be Zhuo Yang. Even if he doesn't score many goals, he can do many other things besides scoring goals. He can roam freely on the front line. Zhuo Yang determines the right to speak on AC Milan's front line. . Next up is Jiu Ye, who is starting to regain his form. Since the summer, he has scored 9 goals on three fronts, which is not much better than when he was at his peak. In the new season, he is the second scorer in the team after Kaká.

What Ji Taozi has to do is to completely put down his posture, not to mention trying to challenge Zhuoyang's core position, even in front of Lao Jiuye, he must be submissive. His competitor is the water striker Oliveira. Yes, this is still under the premise that the miserable Borriello is in self-exile.

Not only his competitive status on the field, but also his importance in the minds of fans, Gilardino, who has accumulated time, has been further and further left behind by Zhuo Yang. This can be seen from the slogans put up by Rosenelli in the stands today. A spot.

This was the first home game after the game with Roma. Many slogans supporting the club were displayed in the San Siro stands, and the most content was to cry out for Zhuoyang and express strong support for him.
