Chapter 318: Tactical Restraint
"You know, we bought Kaka, the super genius in Brazil who has participated in the World Cup. Don't be in a hurry to be happy, tell you, the joy is still to come, you know we are from Who robbed Kaka in their hands? AC Milan! It is said that they are about to sign a contract soon, but we were robbed first. It’s really relieved, let them look like the number one in the world every day, this time I’m dumbfounded Bar!"
This is what Notts County fans said before the game when they were chatting.
"It's really unfortunate, Kaka was bought by Notts County first. These hillbillies pretend to be local tyrants! The club is also true, if you pay more money, you can die! Kaka is a talented player. It's in your hands, Galliani, let's go ****!"
And this is the conversation between AC Milan fans.
The wind direction has completely changed. Kaka’s transfer directly reversed the trend of public opinion. Although Notts County has not expressed any views or opinions on the game, no one will praise AC Milan’s stinky feet and step on Hunotts. County.
Before the start of the game, the two sides also returned to the same starting line.
In the locker room before the game, David was worried that the players would have psychological problems again. After all, AC Milan is full of stars, and it was the Champions League winner last season.
But after observing for a while, David found that the players did not behave abnormally, and the expressions on their faces were more warlike than absent-minded.
It seems that the temperament of a strong team is really played in the game.
David didn't go to the box to watch the game. He really didn't want to see Galliani's angry expression and resentful eyes, and he didn't want to see his bright bald head. It would be better to sit on the coach's bench with the coaches and players. Woolen cloth!
Of course, if David doesn't go, the CEO of the club Soriano must be there, otherwise who will accompany the UEFA bigwigs!
After the game officially started, AC Milan did not conduct any tentative attack at all, and directly pressed the formation, intending to suppress Notts County through a strong midfield, leaving no room for Notts County.
No wonder AC Milan has such a tactical arrangement, who makes the midfield strong!
After Pirlo switched to the midfielder, he has entered the ranks of the top midfielder, with the protection of Gattuso and Seedorf beside him, and Rui Costa in the front midfielder. They can compete with any club in the world. counterbalanced capital.
However, AC Milan's midfield is not without weaknesses. The attack in the middle is strong, but on the side, there is not so much deterrence. If you only rely on two full-backs,
It is impossible to dominate the entire wing, even if AC Milan has a superstar like Cafu on the wing.
The wing attack is precisely Notts County's strength, or in other words, Notts County's wing and middle are very balanced, and there is no obvious weakness.
In order to make a better fuss on the wing, in this game, Loew put Iniesta on the bench, Ribery on the left, and Robben on the right, so that the real two wings can fly together.
David couldn't help but enter into his fantasy. If these two excellent wing players, if added with Kaka, then they will fight back and shoot three arrows. Not to mention that the opponent is too late to defend, I am afraid that Notts County's center may not be. Let's match their speed!
Although Villa and Klose have a good speed, they are far from being able to compare with the three players. David can already imagine that in the counterattack, the center who was flanking in front of the goal became the back row. Poor connection point.
This picture is so beautiful!
In the forward position, Loew chose Villa. Even though Klose has become famous all over the world, he has not fully integrated into Notts County's tactical system. In the confrontation between the central defenders, Klose's header may be too strong, and he may be restricted in the future, but Villa is different. He does not necessarily appear in a dangerous position when he slips, making it difficult for the opponent to guard against. .
In the midfield confrontation, Notts County may not be completely defeated. Although there is no pure defensive midfielder, Alonso and Deco partner with double midfielders, both offensive and defensive, plus Sneijder's Retreat, can compete with AC Milan in a strategic posture.
When AC Milan took possession of the ball, they did not pass the half, and the passing rate was still very high, but once they passed the half, they would face a high pressure from Notts County. Although Pirlo was able to control the attacking direction very well, in In this part of Rui Costa, due to the decline of his state and the close pressing of his new national team teammate Deco, he was always unable to send a fatal pass to the two forwards on the front line.
Pirlo has a very good passing footwork, but he does not dare to go too forward. All the responsibility of passing the threat rests on Ruicosta, relying on Gattuso and Seedorf, the two thick-line players. It's a bit embarrassing for a tough guy to come out with a delicate straight plug.
As a result, Shevchenko and Inzaghi, the two outstanding strikers, were at the front but could not get too much support from the midfield, and the frequent moves became useless.
When Notts County attacked, the mid-pass was just a connection and scheduling. The real killer move was on the two flanks. Ribery and Robben were so fast that it was simply unreasonable. David had a kind of look at Bayern in the future. A sharp attack on both wings.
The game went on for 10 minutes, and the ball possession rates of the two sides were comparable, but in terms of offensive threat, Notts County was far greater than AC Milan.
Robben had a shot from inside, which tested Dida, and Ribery also had an inverted triangle pass, but Sneijder, who responded in the middle, threw the ball directly into the stands.
After a few rounds, AC Milan's players no longer have any sense of superiority. It's not that they don't want to, but they really can't.
If Notts County’s strength is left to them, then the game will naturally be easy, but the current situation is that Notts County occupies the initiative on the field, their attack frequently threatens their own goal, but their own attack always fails. Hit the striker's feet smoothly, this is not what they want to see.
And when Notts County was making a big fuss on the two flanks, the two full-backs Cafu and Pancaro didn't dare to make an assist. In this way, AC Milan had to attack. Going in the middle, even if Shevchenko and Seedorf are sidelined, they can't cause too much trouble to Notts County's defense.
Ancelotti has yet to get Kaka, so his classic Christmas tree formation may not be out yet. He only relies on a diamond-shaped midfielder to deal with Notts County, which is really restrained. (To be continued.)
