Chapter 67 Barking Dogs Cannot Bite People

When Dortmund was full of confidence, Allegri also told the players the most important points in the locker room. Klopp emphasizes speed and running, and he naturally emphasizes the control of rhythm: "Guys, please listen, I don't ask you to win them a lot. This is the Champions League. We only need results and win. So be patient. , there is no chance not to rush forward, they want to score goals more than us, they must want more away goals, so keep the ball at our feet, especially Zhou Tiancheng, can't give him any chance to counterattack understand? Here is San Siro, what are you afraid of in our turf? Be patient and we'll have a chance. Come on guys!"

The Milan fans sang neatly in the San Siro South stands, and everyone sang the team song "Milan, Milan" passionately to cheer for the home team.

"Milan, Milan only wants to support you, Milan, Milan is always for you, we walk beside the hero, on the green field, under the blue sky, we have won another star, shining between us, we sing together ..."

As long as they are Milan fans, they believe that with the inspiration of this song, AC Milan can have the most powerful power. Just singing this song, in the 2002-03 season, AC Milan embroidered an extra star on its chest with its impeccable defense, and the Champions League final with Juventus can be called a model of "defense wins the championship".

But shortly after the start of the game, there was a brief interruption of the singing in the stadium, and all the fans were a little surprised.

They have worked hard to contribute their strength, but the team has not shown the motivation to devour the opponent. The ball was in the hands of the home team in the opening game, but there were not many threatening offenses. The offense advanced to the midfield and encountered Zhou Tiancheng's interception. The defense reorganized after the pass back.

After a few minutes of probing, Zhou Tiancheng found out the pulse of his opponent, and signaled Sven Bender to keep a proper distance from him and stand still.

Sven Bender was still very nervous in this situation, and Zhou Tiancheng called him twice but there was no response.

"Sven, why are you in a daze? Did you hear what I said just now?"

"Ah? Zhou, did you say that? What did you just say?"

Zhou Tiancheng leaned close to his ear and shouted: "Pay attention to the distance with me, then watch my gestures, and find the opportunity to go up and grab a wave."

Sven Bender froze for a second, nodded slightly, and nodded again after a second.

How could Zhou Tiancheng fail to see what state this was, and patted him on the shoulder: "They are already on the field, just focus, don't think that this is the Champions League knockout match, stare at the opponent in front of them, they are wealthy, at least once Yes, will it make you feel very fulfilled to go to them? Get rid of all your nervous emotions, cooperate with me, and do as I say. "

Sven Bender laughed out this time: "No... Zhou, I'm not nervous... It's just too noisy to hear clearly."

"It's pretty face-saving." Zhou Tiancheng muttered in his heart, smiled, and said, "Anyway, no matter what it is, it's a competition now! Focus!"

The game was far worse than what many people imagined before the game. The two former championship teams seeking revival will come and go, and countless sparks will be collided. In fact, the game scene is extremely dull. The non-stop crossing, the occasional attack is just a cross from the side, forcing Ibrahimovic to try to head the goal, but if this kind of attack can be effective, there can only be one explanation : AC Milan received the double blessing of fans' faith and God's will in San Siro.

The game went on for half an hour, and the frequent scenes were the stalemate between the two sides in the midfield. AC Milan was ready to close, and Dortmund occasionally took advantage of the opportunity to counterattack, but the effect was minimal. Barrios was closely watched. Whether it is De Sciglio or Abate, the starting full-backs on the side pay attention to helping defend the center, and shrink the encirclement of Zhou Tiancheng as quickly as possible. Allegri did not use the experienced and legendary left-back Zambrotta. consideration,

In terms of offensive and defensive transitions, old arms and legs are definitely not so flexible.

The scene remained stalemate like this. In the fan bar where Zhou Zhenyong stayed outside the stadium, many fans who did not buy tickets could only commit themselves to watch the game with the boss here.

It's just that such a scene really made everyone lose their spirits.

"This game is too boring. Why did Allegri choose this tactic? Did Dortmund scare him like this?"

"Fortunately, there are no tickets, otherwise I would have to spend money. This kind of scene is really not worth the ticket price."

Hearing such complaints, the boss turned his head and yelled angrily: "You guys, shut up! This is the Champions League. One mistake can lead us into a passive Champions League. Dortmund is not the opponents in the league. .At San Siro not letting them score is the most important thing. When we go to Westphalia, there will be scenes you want to see. Then every away goal will be an advantage. This is a strategy, you guys Know what!"

Everyone suddenly realized.

"Oh! So it is like this!"

"It makes sense, Boss, I'll just say a few words to you, and I'll bring you another case of wine!"

"Boss Ghani knows a lot."

The boss proudly raised his head: "When I started to support Milan, you were still looking for your mother to change diapers."

The fans are generally very patient, but the commentator of Milan TV can't bear it a bit.

"With all due respect, I couldn't see what tactics Allegri was going to play in the first ten minutes. Milan should play pleasing football. This style of play is really ugly. Even if it achieves a temporary effect, I don't think so. Allegri can lead Milan to revival... Forgive me for saying this, although it is a bit unpleasant, but I think many Milan fans should be able to understand how the former Milan interpreted the beauty of football. Allegri obviously has not found Milan once. The art of losing, let alone recreating the soul."

In the Beijing studio, sitting next to He Wei was the famous old Serie A commentator Zhang Lu. Seeing AC Milan's obviously timid performance, He Wei consciously asked a question: "Director Zhang, today Alai Although Gerry's formation has not changed, his strategy is obviously different, what considerations do you have in analyzing him?"

Zhang Lu smiled and blinked his eyes. He knew exactly what He Wei was pointing at, and shook his shoulders: "Aha, this question should be looked at this way. Although Allegri has led AC Milan in the past few seasons and has gradually recovered. , but after all, it was not the period seven or eight years ago. Now this defense line is not so stable. Allegri is still out of caution. become opportunists."

He Wei smiled: "The fans and the media must be disappointed. It is said that the fans of Milan City value this game very much, and the momentum created by the media is very unusual."

Zhang Lu smiled a little: "You're so aggressive."

He originally wanted to say that barking dogs can't bite people, but when he got to the point of speaking, he immediately changed to a less irritating statement for the AC Milan fans in front of the TV.
