Milan, who comes to Fiorentina again, still remembers the game last season at Frankie Stadium.

At that time, Milan had to play the Champions League in the middle of the week and Juventus on the weekend. They were full of concerns and lost to Fiorentina 1:3 away, continuing the shameful history of being unable to win against Purple Lily for ten years.

A season later, Milan faced almost the same dilemma again, challenging Fiorentina, which was unbeatable in 1999, and going to Istanbul to play the Champions League life and death battle in the middle of the week. There was no news before the game whether they were mainly the league or the Champions League.

The focus war attracted the attention of the whole world.

Although Juventus and Milan are just as good as the strength, Milan is more attractive than Juventus in terms of play. In the past two decades, Juventus has been more successful in the domestic league, while Milan has performed more outstandingly in the Champions League.

More than 40,000 fans and more than 200 reporters came to the game. There were still many fans who did not have the opportunity to buy tickets outside the court. They could only observe the game through the big screen outside the court and the TV in the bar.

The game was held at 8:30 pm, and the referee was the young and stern Jen Lady.

"... Let's take a look at the starting lineup of both sides: Fiorentina 1 Fre1 Uyfaluci, Gambellini, Dainelli, Squall 3 Brokey, 4 Donadal 10-Fiore, 18-Montolivo, No. 9 Chen Yu 0 Tony... AC Milan: 1 Dida 1 Stam, 13-Nesta, 3 Martini, 27-Serginho Gattuso, I Pirlo, 20-Sidov-Kaka-Shevchenko, l1 Girardino... Fiorentina looks like a 3l formation, Tony is at the front, while AC Milan is at the 43 formation, Girardino and Shevchenko are at the front..."

The on-site commentator explained the teams of both sides' matches to the fans during the pre-match ceremony. As he pronounced his names one by one, more than 40,000 fans at the scene burst into warm applause from time to time.

The players on the scene are all nationals and quasi-nationals, and have a great reputation in the football world. Their status in the minds of fans is extraordinary. Even without the exaggerated tone of the commentator, they will still fanatically support their favorite stars.

Ancelotti stood on the sidelines, his eyes swept at the players who were on the court, and finally locked on Chen Yu. Last season, he played two games with the team, one lost and one draw, home: draw, and away l: 3 losses. The black-haired young Chinese striker in front of him scored 3 goals and created an own goal. It can be said that he had taken charge of four of them. In a sense, he is AC Milan's nemesis.

Today, this young opponent, Plandelli, lined up an unexpected formation. The 3I forward only had two players, Chen Yu and Tony. From their position, Chen Yu seems to be carrying a certain defensive task. It seems that Plandelli also understands Milan's midfield control and wants Chen Yu to help Feoré, Montolivo and others manage the midfield and help fight against the combination of Pirlo Gattuso, Sidorf, and Kaka.

Although it can be seen that the opponent is afraid of his midfield strength, Ancelotti is not complacent. He is a truly powerful coach. He understands his strengths and his weaknesses. He can be said to know himself and his enemy.

Milan has won 8 consecutive league games this season. The opponents they lost to are away games. One was to Sampdoria and the other lost to Eindhoven in the Champions League. The common characteristics of these two opponents are excellent attack power and strong running ability. Like Sampdoria, this season, it is also a team with strong offense and weak defense this season. Their scored only after the top three goals, but their poor defensive performance of 17 goals made them only ranked in the middle of the standings. As a result, when AC Milan met this team, although Girardino's first goal scored, they failed to block the opponent's fierce attack and were eventually reversed by the opponent.

Looking at the longer range, AC Milan's away challenge to some offensive teams in the league last season was not outstanding. In the Serie A venue last season, Lecce, who scored UU goals and conceded 73 goals, was the most unbalanced team in offense and defense. As a result, in the away game challenging Lecce, AC Milan finally drew with the opponent while leading twice. If you continue to trace forward, Udinese, who once became the "AC Milan nemesis", is also a team known for its strong attack power, not to mention Florence.

In fact, Ancelotti understands that the reason why AC Milan fears such an opponent is related to the age structure of his team. Currently, most players in the AC Milan defense line are over 30 years old. Although these veterans have rich experience, they are already on a downward trend in terms of physical fitness. If they encounter opponents with cautious style, these veterans can still gain the upper hand in the competition with their own experience. However, when encountering opponents who take offensive football, the veterans are likely to appear powerless under the continuous bombing and finally reveal flaws on the defense line. Florence, which has high center forward Tony and all-round forward Chen Yu, will become another tricky opponent facing AC Milan.

For Tony, Ancelotti knows how to deal with him, because what Italy does not lack is the high center. Italian defenders also have experience in dealing with high centers, but for Chen Yu, Ancelotti doesn't know how to defend him. He played two games last season. Ancelotti has studied Chen Yu thoroughly, but the deeper he studies, the more afraid Ancelotti feels. This Chinese striker seems to have hidden countless secrets. He can always play games that surprise you. For such an opponent, Ancelotti can do is to let Gattuso always be by his side. Although this is a shame for Milan, if Ancelotti wants to win the first victory in eleven years at Frankie Stadium, he must make such a decision.

Plandelli's eyes were staring at Milan's bench, with world-class superstars Vieri and Inzaghi sitting on the bench, and Shevchenko and Girardino standing on the court. What a luxurious lineup, only giants like Milan can have such luxurious work.

However, Plandelli was not afraid. He also made detailed research on AC Milan. This is a powerful team. They can be said to be stronger than Fiorentina in most aspects, but this does not mean that he has no weaknesses, otherwise he would not have had any way to fight Fiorentina twice last season. Mondonico can do it, and Plandelli believes that he can do it.

As the focus of fans and players on both sides, Chen Yu has become accustomed to such gazes. He stands on the court and quietly waits for the start of the game. For him, the fans in the stands shouting his name from time to time no longer makes them excited, but they can still make him remember his responsibilities. He must repay them with all his efforts, because they are the root of his wealth and reputation.

Chen Yu really played a second striker today, wandering between the forward and the midfielder. On the one hand, he had the task of scoring goals, and on the other hand, he also had the task of helping Feorre control the midfield.

At this time, Chen Yu still chose the consciousness of the superstar Piero. Another reserved star consciousness of the double consciousness conversion card. He chose Inzaji, who was sitting on the opponent's bench. The opponent's central defender experience is indeed very rich, but Chen Yu believes in his speed and explosive power. Once he is given a chance, no matter how strong the consciousness of these old guys is, he may only be stunned when he is stunned, because now Chen Yu feels that his speed, reaction, and explosive power have improved a little more than before.

"force"

After a brief calm, referee Gianlaidi blew the whistle to the last game of the Serie A round

First, AC Milan players Girardino and Shevchenko, who kicked off, passed the ball behind him, and then slowly penetrated into the opponent's half. Behind them, Kaka, who was holding the ball, did not rush to pass the ball backward, but held the ball with confidence and waited in the back of the center circle.

Florence players quickly pressed over. For Florence players, they knew that their advantage lies in this game, physical fitness, which is Florence's biggest capital.

In addition to being younger than AC Milan, the opponent also goes to Turkey to play Fenerbahce, while Fiorentina qualifies in the Champions League, which makes them not need to cherish their physical fitness at all. AC Milan needs to consider how to allocate their physical strength is indeed a problem. Although Ancelotti pretended to be calm before the game, "The team has no physical strength or psychological problems, and we will continue to win in a row." But in fact, Fiorentina does not believe it because this old and cunning team is afraid that their opponents will use their physical strength to drag themselves. This is how they lost AC Milan last season.

Kaka did not wait for the Fiorentine players to force him to pass the ball back to Pirlo quickly, allowing Pirlo to control the ball and find the opponent's flaws. For Kaka, he knew his position and role in the Milan camp. He was a general, and he used it to attack the opponent's defense line, while Pirlo was the marshal and he was organized and dispatched.

Pirlo was already constantly observing the opponent's formation changes before holding the ball. For him, long passes and short passes are deadly weapons. When the ball reaches his feet, as long as the opponent has a flaw, he has a way to send the ball to the opponent's most uncomfortable place.

However, Pirlo did not find any flaws in his opponent. Although Fiorentina pressed quickly and the team's formation was pressing forward quickly, the position between the team's defense line and two midfielders Brokey and Donadale also had just enough protection for Pirlo, and there was no room left for Pirlo.

"Oh today is the anniversary of Brokey's 100th Serie A game."

Pirlo sighed and his old teammates transferred to Fiorentina. Before Brokey's transfer, he was going to congratulate Brokey with several old men. Now, he can only use this method to commemorate Brokey's 100 Serie A games.

Pirlo passed the ball to Seedorf. Seedorf passed the back defender. AC Milan did not pass directly when he could not find the opportunity. Instead, he used crosses and diagonal passes to attract opponents' players. The opponent is most likely to reveal flaws when running and pressing. If the opponent stays in the backcourt, their formation will not have flaws. As the midfield commander, Pirlo understood the principle of mobilizing the opponent without being mobilized by the opponent.

AC Milan's ability to control the ball and control the rhythm of the game are unique. Even Barcelona, ​​who is now rising strongly, is just around the corner. With Fiorentina's full pressing, Milan still firmly controls the ball under her feet until Fiorentina's pressing player surpassed Milan's halftime and the players on the back line also mentioned that not far from the front of the center circle. At this time, Pirlo suddenly passed the ball to Kaka.

If Pirlo is the commander, Shevchenko and Girardino are forwards, then Kaka is the general, the general who charges. If Pirlo is the metronome, then Kaka is the transmission. When the ball reaches Kaka's feet, AC Milan's rhythm and style of play will undergo completely different changes, because Kaka's style of play is to break through the ball, because Kaka's position is behind two forwards, even if he fails to break through, he will not cause much damage to his defense line.

Sure enough, Kaka saw Pirlo give the ball to him and knew that Pirlo had not found his opponent's gap and weakness. At this time, he needed to force himself to see if the opponent could deal with the changes in his own rhythm.

Kaka faced his goal and took the ball. When he received the ball, he seemed to pretend that he didn't see Donadal rushing over. Even when the ball was almost at his feet and Donadal was only two meters away from him, Chen Yu remained calm until Donadal reached out to steal. Kaka suddenly pulled the ball and turned around and threw away Donadal rushing over.

This is a beautiful escape. In the eyes of the fans in the stands, Kaka now looks like she has eyes on her back, and she looks very free and easy.

Donadale was caught off guard and was deceived by Kaka. When Donadale adjusted its center of gravity, Kaka had already used his most distinctive meteor to drive the ball into Florence's penalty area.

Donadal was thrown away, and Kaka rushed towards him with an unyielding momentum. Fiorentina's defense was not panicked. They also studied Kaka very thoroughly before the game. The Brazilian genius is best at dribbling in large spaces, not good at moving in small spaces. Moreover, Kaka's long shots outside the penalty area were very good, so the Fiorentina's defenders and midfielders immediately rushed towards Kaka. They did not give him a long shot.

Kaka didn't want to break through the right defense line and rush into the penalty area to shoot. This is what the opponent's striker Chen Yucaiyu did. All he had to do was shoot when he entered the 25-meter area of ​​the goal.

Kaka didn't expect that his opponent would press quickly. After rushing into the 30-meter area, he had no chance to kick, so the opponent's defender rushed up.

Kaka did not continue to go forward. His companion Shevchenko, who was in front, was already reaching out to ask for the ball. This was not the raw seeds of Girardino. In Kaka's mind, the European Golden Ball was a teacher and friend. He immediately passed the ball to Shevchenko who was about to pull to the side.

However, Shevchenko did not pass the ball. He just pulled the ball and created a chance to shoot for Kaka. He did not block Kaka's space to dribble the ball. But seeing that the opponent did not give Kaka a chance to shoot from a long time, he asked the ball over. This was not his desire to start a breakthrough from the wing. There was only Girardino, no Vieri, and no Inzaghi. Even if Shevchenko completed the breakthrough on the wing, it was hard to say how much threat it would bring to Fiorentina's goal. The main reason for him to ask for the ball was that he saw Pirlo intervene.

The effect of Shevchenko's ball was even more nervous than Kaka's ball. When Shevchenko controlled the ball under his feet, the Fiorentine players rushed towards Shevchenko again.

Shevchenko simply could not allow his opponent to surround him. Before the opponent's encirclement had been formed, he quickly passed the ball to the gap left by the opponent's running position, and this was the position Pirlo was about to arrive soon.

Pirlo was originally the focus of Florence, but when Kaka and Shevchenko were distracted, no one followed Pirlo when he came to the 30-meter dangerous area in Florence.

Pirlo's vision was wider. He took the ball to the opponent's most uncomfortable direction and position, and then followed up with a long shot.

Pirlo's shot was exactly 25 meters away from the goal. If you kick a free kick at this position, Pirlo has 60% hope of scoring, but in this way, Pirlo's confidence is only 40%.

The only player in a team who can see the overall situation is the goalkeeper. Frey is in good shape and spirit today. When Pirlo appears in his field of vision, he immediately locked his attention on him. When Pirlo kicked the ball, Frey was ready to save. When he saw Pirlo hitting a straight instep, Frey sneered and said to himself: "This must be his fallen leaf ball. I have to pay attention to the arc of the falling ball."

Frey flew out. When he was rushing to the middle, he felt that the ball fell a little far away and seemed to be unable to fly directly to the goal net. Frey was very surprised, but the time was too short, and Frey couldn't think of why, so he rushed over without hesitation.

When the ball hit the grass not far from the goal, Frey realized that Pirlo had hit a rebound.

"Oh shit"
Chapter completed!
