April 6, 2014.

Milan defeated Genoa in the 32nd round of Serie A.

A 6-1 victory, overwhelming the country.

And more importantly, after this game, they lead second place Juventus with 19 league points.

Won the Serie A championship ahead of schedule!

After the game, a brief championship ceremony was held at San Siro Stadium.

Fans enjoy the joy of defending the league championship.

The celebration was joyful, but it didn't last long.

Because in a few days, they still have a tough battle to fight.

Also here, the Red Devils from the Premier League are much more difficult to deal with than Genoa.

On the evening of April 10, the city of Milan was covered with clouds.

The weather forecast says it will rain in the last two hours.

When fighting in rainy weather, the most difficult thing is to attack.

It is difficult for the ball to roll on wet turf.

The force of the shot was also very uncomfortable.

But for Milan, it doesn't matter.

Because even if they don't score in this game, they will still advance.

But Manchester United is different.

Because they lost 1-2 at home, even if Milan didn't score, they had no right to relax in this game.

On the premise that Milan has no results, at least two goals must be scored to guarantee qualifying.

But, is this possible?

On the bus to the San Siro Stadium, the Manchester United general was in a low mood.

The players looked serious and were under great pressure for the upcoming game.

The coaching staff also frowned, looking at the Milan player information in their hands as they sharpened their skills before the battle.

At this time, coach Moyes seemed to be in a daze.

Poker face.

No one knew that the Manchester United board of directors had given him an ultimatum one day ago.

If we cannot win this game against Milan, if Manchester United cannot advance to the semi-finals of the Champions League.

So, today is his last game leading Manchester United.

Looking at the hustle and bustle of Milan outside the window, Moyes was extremely bitter at the moment.

Although it hasn't rained yet, it seems that the rainwater has already flowed into his mouth.

At a certain moment, he suddenly missed his days at Everton.

It's not a wealthy family there, but it gives itself enough rights and respect.

If he had stayed there, it is conceivable that he would have become one of the greatest coaches in the history of that club.

Not even one.

But now, he has come to the best team in the Premier League for the sake of championship honors.

Yes, he has always thought so.

Manchester United is the best club in the Premier League.

But what about the result?

Chicken feathers everywhere.

When he was at Everton, he always envied Ferguson's way of scolding Fang Qiu at Manchester United.

Now that I am sitting in this position, I realize how difficult it is.

Yes, it's too difficult.

The goals are high, the pressure is high, and the players are difficult to manage.

Countless celebrities jumped out to bb, and countless media made irresponsible remarks.

All this noise made him very irritable.

Coupled with the fact that the club didn't trust him enough, almost none of the people he wanted came.

Just brought in an old general, Fellaini, and want to achieve reconstruction?

is it possible?

Manchester United is now ranked eighth in the league, and it seems that there is no chance of qualifying for the European Championship next season.

And how could Milan in front of him let him pass easily?

Although the game has not started, Moyes has given up hope for this game.

The bus arrived outside the San Siro Stadium, and the smell of humidity in the air became stronger.

In the humid air, the shouts from the San Siro Stadium still echoed through the sky.

It can be heard outside the stadium.

Their teammates and fans are already waiting to welcome them.

Let's go, come in.

Entering the stadium, Milan has already arrived first.

Manchester United soldiers took the time to warm up.

Nani suddenly slipped while dribbling and controlling the ball, causing a burst of laughter in the stands.

Rooney helped him up.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a little nostalgic.

Missing the other Portuguese who once fought alongside him.

It would be great if he were here today...

After warm-up, return to the locker room.

Moyes looked at the tactical board and said nothing for a full minute.

He asked the assistant coach to reiterate the tactical arrangements for the game.

After it was over, he slowly spoke.

However, he didn’t say much, just one sentence.

"We must seize the opportunity to score goals before the heavy rain falls."

Compared with the Manchester United locker room, the atmosphere in Milan's locker room is more relaxed.

This game has an obvious advantage for them.

For Allegri today, the most important thing in this game is to defend well.

So today they arranged a three-midfield combination of Chang Ming, De Jong and Essien.

These three players are already the core of Milan's defensive midfield team.

Chang Ming's defensive organization, De Jong's fierceness and decisiveness, and Essien's rich experience.

With these three people in the backcourt, Milan's defense is perfect.

But in front of them, Kaka is still starting today.

On the striker, Balotelli was on the bench today, and Long Yu was partnered with the young El Shaarawy.

Today Milan is determined to play defensive counterattack and needs speed on the front line.

In the humid air, the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals kicked off.

From the first minute, Milan retreated decisively.

Directly giving up the ball.

This is Allegri's tactical requirement for this game.

Because he knows very well that Manchester United is good at fast breaks, but their ability to control the ball is limited.

Especially nowadays, these players no longer have the kind of stars who can handle the ball extremely well.

Giggs is not bad, but he is old and has no speed.

Rooney is the biggest star, but he can't do it alone.
