From coaching Real Madrid

Martin finally got his wish and got a photo with Gao Shen.

It was after Real Madrid's last training session in Milan, Italy. Accompanied by Butragueno, Martin came to Valdebebas to encourage Real Madrid players to keep up their efforts and strive to defeat AC Milan away from home.

In the photo, Gao Shen stood on one side of Martin with an unsmiling expression, and on the other side was Real Madrid captain Raul.

Unlike the captain who smiled politely, Martin smiled brightly.

This photo was not only posted on Real Madrid's official website, but was also sent to major media outlets close to Real Madrid such as Aspen and Marca, as strong evidence to clarify the conflict between Chairman Martin and Gao Shen.

Real Madrid's official website described this photo and said: President Martin had a cordial conversation with head coach Gao Shen and firmly believed that he could lead the team to reverse Barcelona, ​​win La Liga and the Champions League this season, and achieve the great feat of winning the double crown!

Gao Shen still did not attend the pre-match press conference. The tool man Maguida attended in his place and announced the 18-man squad for Milan, which also allowed him to avoid the media's entanglement.

Real Madrid is now at a critical moment of sprinting, and Gao Shen does not want any accident to distract the team at this time.

Results are what he cares about most now.

As for the grudge between him and Martin, he will put an end to it when the time is right.

But it must not be now!

…………

…………

When Real Madrid was sitting at the Santiago Bernabeu and suffered an equalizer from Villarreal, and the team was deeply involved in rumors that Chairman Martin was angry about Gao Shen's firing, far away in Italy, AC Milan also ushered in the 35th round of Serie A and challenged Messi away from home.

Na.

Logically speaking, this should have been a game without much suspense, but who would have thought that in the first seven minutes, Kaladze's stepping action gave Messina a chance to score a free kick, allowing AC Milan to score.

behind.

What was even more unexpected was the match that followed.

Messina's strength is far inferior to that of AC Milan, but this team, which is fighting for relegation, performed very bravely and made great moves at its home court, and the referee's enforcement was soft, which resulted in AC Milan players being incompetent during the game.

Danger is everywhere.

Kaka was violated by his opponent in the fourteenth minute and was taken off the field on a stretcher. Ambrosini came on as a substitute.

Just five minutes later, Nesta strained his muscle and asked to come off the field, and Stam took his place.

In the 28th minute, Ambrosini, who had just replaced Kaká for only 14 minutes, was also injured, and Jankulovski came on as a substitute.

In less than half an hour, three players were injured in a row and three substitutions were used up early. This is simply unbelievable.

However, AC Milan also got a blessing in disguise. Jankulovski, who had just come on as a substitute, made a pass from the ribs and scored a volley from a small angle, scoring a goal for AC Milan.

This is his first league goal in Milan.

Before the end of the first half, Gattuso's iron tree blossomed, giving AC Milan another victory and reversing the score.

Subsequently, the game remained stalemate until the stoppage time of the second half, when Gilardino received Seedorf's assist and sealed the victory for AC Milan.

But just after the goal, Messina defender Aronica fouled while defending Seedorf. The two clashed and slapped each other. As a result, both were sent off with red cards by the referee.

In the end, AC Milan reversed Messina's away game 3-1.

As Juventus drew 1-1 with Lazio at home, AC Milan successfully shortened the points gap.

With three rounds left in Serie A, AC Milan is still three points behind Juventus.

…

Although it was a bit unkind, Gao Shen was really happy when he learned the news about AC Milan.

Real Madrid's scouts have also been following AC Milan closely, and news is gradually being spread back to Madrid.

Nesta suffered a groin strain due to excessive fatigue, and it is almost certain that he will miss the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals.

Ambrosini suffered a muscle strain. This is the third consecutive season that he has been injured in the same part, and he is 100% out of the game against Real Madrid.

After Kaka was taken off on a stretcher and treated with ice, his condition was not particularly clear.

Also unclear are Cafu and Shevchenko. Both players are injured. Shevchenko was the target of Messina's players during the game. After the game, the old Achilles tendon injury recurred.

Cafu suffered a knee injury after being violently hit by his opponent. Until Real Madrid left for Milan, it was still not sure whether they could play.

This made Gao Shen have to wonder, could it be that he is really the male protagonist of the online novel?

Otherwise, how to explain that AC Milan suffered such a tragic blow before the crucial decisive battle?

Are you sure the author is not trying to give himself a cheat?

However, Real Madrid's situation is actually not much better. Gao Shen also experienced a false alarm before.

After a training session, Woodgate developed muscle pain, which worried the senior players and the coaching staff.

Helguera has not yet fully recovered, and his condition cannot be guaranteed. Pavin, Mejía and others cannot be reused. If Woodgate is also injured, then Real Madrid will really have no central defender.

For this reason, Gao Shen specially arranged a team to take care of Woodgate, take X-rays once a day, and keep an eye on his condition at any time.

It wasn't until the team went to Milan that Gao Shen got a clear answer from the team doctor. Woodgate's injury was not serious and he could participate in the San Siro game.

At this time, everyone on the Imperial Horse breathed a sigh of relief.

…

When Real Madrid arrived in Milan, there was also a wave of support in Italian football to support AC Milan.

Although they suffered a 3-0 defeat in the first round, AC Milan may not have no chance at home.

Former AC Milan coach Zaccheroni said in an interview with Turin Sports News that the 0-3 defeat was indeed disappointing, but there was no chance of a comeback at home.

"AC Milan's real strength lies in their offense, while Real Madrid's weakness lies in their defense. Therefore, I don't think the game is over. AC Milan may come back at home."

AC Milan's general manager Galliani also accepted an interview with the media the day before the game and answered many questions about the team. He also looked forward to this semi-final and believed that the team might reverse the situation.

"I watched Real Madrid's game against Villarreal, and their defense was very problematic. I think we should play more actively at home. I firmly believe that the team will continue to fight until the last minute of the league and the Champions League.

"

Sacchi, the former AC Milan head coach and former technical director at Real Madrid, remains neutral on this game.

He believes that AC Milan is indeed at a disadvantage in the San Siro battle because they lost so badly at the Bernabeu.

"Comparing the two teams, AC Milan is more mature, while Real Madrid is more unstable, especially their defense."

Sacchi spoke highly of the personality of Real Madrid, where Gao Shen coached, and believed that Gao Shen was amazing enough for his ability to lead Real Madrid out of trouble and achieve their current achievements in critical moments.

"But just like that, it's not enough."

"AC Milan has many decisive attackers, such as Kaka, Inzaghi and Shevchenko. At San Siro, they will pose a huge test to Real Madrid's defense."

"Ancelotti has no choice, he can only attack!"

However, Sacchi also mentioned that Real Madrid's defensive level has improved significantly after Gao Shen was coached.

"He brought a new defensive concept to Real Madrid. He even allowed the superstars in the frontcourt to actively participate in counterattacks and pressure. This was unbelievable before, and it also greatly improved Real Madrid's defense."

Sacchi believes that Real Madrid has a high chance of advancing, but AC Milan has a chance to create a miracle.

…

"Milan has indeed been creating miracles in the past two seasons."

On the morning of the match day, during Real Madrid's tactical meeting, Gao Shen showed the players fresh Italian newspaper reports, many of which were cheering for AC Milan.

When Gao Shen said this seriously, without giving the players a chance to react, he shrugged and said in a helpless tone: "They have rich experience of being reversed. This is something we must pay attention to."

of."

The players were stunned for a moment, and then the whole audience burst into laughter.

Boss, you are too damaged!

Gao Shen disagreed, but he was not wrong at all.

AC Milan is indeed creating miracles. For example, after winning 4-1 at home last season, it was reversed by Deportivo La Coruna 0-4 away from home. There was also the miracle of being reversed and won the Champions League final by Liverpool after leading by three goals last season.

Unfortunately, they are the victims of these two miracles.

"Okay!" Gao Shen waited until the players stopped laughing, then clapped his hands vigorously to signal everyone to quiet down.

Strategically, we must despise our opponents, but tactically we must pay attention to them.

The reason why Gao Shen deliberately stepped on AC Milan was to relieve the pressure on the players, but when it comes to truly talking about the game, enough attention must be paid to it.

AC Milan is not a soft persimmon.

"At San Siro, Ancelotti will definitely try his best to score goals."

The players nodded one after another. Only in this way can AC Milan have a chance of survival.

"According to our intelligence, Nesta is unlikely to be able to play. Unless Ancelotti wants to bet on his future in the World Cup, Ambrosini will definitely not be able to play, so their defense will be much weaker than in the first round. This will

This is our opportunity."

The existence of the away goals rule in the Champions League has greatly enriched the interest of the Champions League knockout rounds.

Many people say that it encourages defense in disguise, so there is a saying that cup competitions rely on defense and league games rely on offense.

This is correct.

But at the same time, its existence also encourages offense.

It's like Real Madrid is currently winning 3-0 at home and did not allow AC Milan to score on the road. Then when it comes to the away game, Gao Shen can completely let himself go and take action without any scruples.

In this case, as long as Real Madrid gets an away goal, AC Milan must score five goals.

No matter how bad Real Madrid's defense is, is it easy to score five goals?

Ancelotti now has to think carefully, is he sure that he can prevent Real Madrid from scoring while attacking with all his strength?
