Chapter Four Hundred and Fortieth Gratification and Powerlessness

Wansheng was very excited.

There was no moment when he felt more confident in the team than he does now.

Since he became the head coach, he has put the pressure of the team's games, players' performance and other aspects on himself. It is difficult for the assistant coaches or players in the team to share the pressure for him.

The current Manchester City was built by him.

Most of the players are trained by him, and the tactics are created by him. Even the state and performance of the players are within his plan. Whenever there are some problems in the game, he has to analyze and think about how to solve them. , never thought that someone could help him solve it.

Just like just now, Koppelle Ferreira was sent off with a red card. He has been thinking about how to change the situation to make the situation more beneficial to the team. He feels that the pressure is his own, and he should find a way to solve it himself.

But now, Wan Sheng found that someone could still share it for him.

The players on the field performed much better than they imagined. They are already mature professional players. When the game encountered difficulties, they did not lose anything. Instead, they rose up to find opportunities and scored a go-ahead goal for the team.

This is the performance of the players themselves!

He didn't get involved, and the team was able to perform very well.

At this moment, Wansheng was extremely pleased.

This is the team I brought out with my own hands, and this is the players I have cultivated. They are all very good, they have their own judgments on the field, and they will work hard to score goals, not relying entirely on themselves.

That feeling... It's like watching your child grow up and be able to complete some things independently, and be able to jump some heavy burdens.

Wan Sheng smiled and sat back on the coach's bench, because there was nothing to worry about in the game. Even if the team faced off with 10 players, he would not make any changes and believed that the team could stick to the end.

AC Milan was stunned by Manchester City's goal.

They just relied on Kaka's penalty kick to equalize the score, which is the only goal since the beginning of the game, but they never expected that they had just scored a difficult goal, and Manchester City only used a wave of attack to overtake again. already?

That feeling is that they worked hard for a goal the whole game, but the opponent easily took it away with a wave of offense...

AC Milan players are extremely depressed, Maurice's goal is a huge blow to their morale.

When the game restarted, there were still some players who didn't recover. They even thought "it was just an illusion, the score was still 1-1", but obviously this was a self-comforting idea.

But if you don't think like that, it's even harder to face reality.

1 to 2.

This is a worse score than 0-1, because away goals are very important in the two rounds of the game. According to the rules of the Champions League knockout, if the score is tied, it depends on the number of away goals. Manchester City has two Away goal, then go back to Manchester Stadium, even if AC Milan can win 1-0, because they are one less away goal than Manchester City, they will still be eliminated.

British BBC broadcast commentator Ryan John also analyzed, "Manchester City scored the second goal and led AC Milan again. The score is very unfavorable for AC Milan."

"If the game ends 1-2, then back at the Manchester Stadium, the chances of Manchester City knocking out AC Milan will become very large."

Facts have proved that Wansheng's trust in Morris is correct.

Morris was also thrilled to score, but he was not carried away by the goal, and as City celebrated, he had already figured out what to do next.

It was the result of everyone's hard work in the attack on AC Milan's defense line just now and the ability to complete the goal, but there was also AC Milan's carelessness and some luck.

That's the way football is, and luck plays a big part in scoring goals.

But the team's luck can't be so good all the time. The key point is that the team is currently one person less than the opponent, and they are still playing at the San Siro Stadium.

When AC Milan got serious, they had to prepare to deal with each other's counterattack, so Morris reminded everyone to be careful.

"We have to step back, 1-2 is acceptable, we have to keep the goal."

He told his teammates.

After finishing speaking, Morris also glanced at the coaching bench. He has played under Wansheng for nearly five seasons, and he still knows Wansheng very well. He believes that Wansheng would also command the same way.

If you have an advantage, you must guard the goal and not get carried away. In a passive situation, it is the most correct choice to continue the advantage to the end.

Morris thought so.

So when the game restarted, AC Milan found that Manchester City began to retreat, the opponent's formation retreated, and several midfielders, including Ozil and Silva, retreated to the backcourt.

AC Milan wanted to use the last minute to tie the game, but the first thing they had to face was the penalty area line that Manchester City strictly guarded.

This line of defense made AC Milan players feel overwhelmed. It was difficult for them to rely on cooperation to break through the line of defense. The superb skills of players such as Kaka and Pirlo also lost their effect.

Wan Sheng sat on the coach's bench and laughed immediately after seeing the team retreat.

"He is really my best disciple." He sighed to Diamares.

Diamares laughed after hearing this.

Now the two don't need to command anything. There is not much time in the game, and the team is fully focused on defense. The headache is AC Milan.

AC Milan coach Ancelotti really has a headache.

Manchester City's overtake goal was unexpected. Originally after Kaka scored, he still wanted to let the team take the opportunity to score another goal. The home game was tied 2-1, and the team had a slight advantage, but Morris's The goal turned the score back.

If AC Milan wants to fight for greater hope, it must complete the goal before the end of the game.

But seeing Manchester City's defensive appearance, Ancelotti didn't know what to do. In fact, AC Milan's offensive ability has always been a problem, although the team has Kaka, Pirlo, Pato, etc. Excellent frontcourt, but the age of the backcourt veterans is a big problem, only relying on a few frontcourt players to attack, it works well in the Italian domestic league, but in the European arena, it is a bit weak compared to the English and Spanish teams .

AC Milan has this problem now. It is difficult for them to rely on cooperation to play a sharp attack, and more often they rely on the individual performance of the players.

But when opponents, like Manchester City now, defend with all their heart, it is difficult for them to find opportunities in front of the goal.

Ancelotti felt powerless.

He knows that no matter how he adjusts, he can't change the situation on the field. If he wants to score a goal, it is a matter of the whole game, not just a few minutes. Now he can only hope that a miracle can happen.

Under the strict defense of Manchester City, perhaps miracles have to stand aside.

The last time of the game was exhausted by the strong attack of AC Milan and the strict defense of Manchester City.

AC Milan failed to score until the last minute of the game, and the game ended 1-2 with Manchester City taking a goal difference and two away goals from the San Siro.

Even the Italian media said, "... AC Milan failed to play a good game, and the second leg became very difficult for them..."

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the players of Manchester City celebrated and cheered together, and the fans of Manchester City in the stands also cheered wildly, while the AC Milan players as the home team lowered their heads and couldn't believe that they would be at home. lose.

Wan Sheng took the initiative to step forward, smiled and shook hands with Ancelotti.

He was so happy with the game.

In fact, what he is satisfied with is more than the score. 1-2 is indeed very beneficial to Manchester City, but it cannot be said that AC Milan completely lost the opportunity. When they arrived at the Manchester Stadium, they won two goals, or won one, with multiple away goals. , can also eliminate Manchester City, which is not impossible.

Wansheng is most satisfied with the performance of the players on the field, or, in other words, the performance of Morris.

The game shaped a stronger Morris.

Wansheng believes that Morris will definitely perform better in the future, and under his leadership, the team's performance will also be better. At this moment, he has more confidence in the team's championship this season.

Ancelotti stood there, waiting for Wan Sheng to come over.

The old coach also smiled, but the smile was also full of bitterness. He shook hands with Wan Sheng, then looked at Wan Sheng, shook his head and said, "It's hard to imagine... You are too young! I was still playing football at this age. , but since last year, we have played twice, right? I didn't expect your team to play so well. Morris, what a genius."

Wan Sheng smiled, "He is really good."

"You're better," Ancelotti said. "You're just over 30, aren't you?"

Wan Sheng nodded, "I will be 31 years old in May."

Ancelotti shook his head, "It's unimaginable, I thought we had an advantage at home. However, we won't give up, I'm looking forward to the Manchester game."

"I'm looking forward to it too." Wan Sheng smiled.

The two looked at each other, and immediately walked into the stadium passage together.

————

The European media paid a lot of attention to the match between Manchester City and AC Milan.

1-2, Manchester City won away.

This result surprised the media. Even the British media who supported Manchester City were very surprised. They believed that Manchester City had a chance to eliminate AC Milan, but it must be very difficult. They did not expect Manchester City to win away games.

Then back at home, Manchester City's chances are too great!

"Manchester City played an advantage away from home in the first round, which is unimaginable. AC Milan made a mistake in this game. They only relied on Kaka to score a goal. In comparison, Morris, who is the core, performed well. Even better, he led Manchester City to the San Siro for the most part against AC Milan."

"In this game, Manchester City's tactics are a bright spot, Wansheng arranged almost six midfielders, in addition to Petrov, Ozil, Silva, Maurice, Ivan Crewe, Darren Bent It can also be said that it is a midfielder, he is not playing a double striker parallel to Torres."

"Perhaps it was also Manchester City's tactics that caught AC Milan off guard. As you can see in the first half, Manchester City completely dominated the midfield, and it was difficult for AC Milan to compete with them near the midline."

"After the game, AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti also admitted that he lost in the tactical response, which also proves that Manchester City's preparations are quite mature..."
