My name is Colani

Gattuso was in excellent form. Less than two minutes later, he once again disrupted Messi's dribbling. His tackle was fierce, but his foot was accurate, and he shoveled the ball out of the sideline.

Gattuso is a big-game player. He also performed well in the last Champions League final, but once he was too excited and fouled in the penalty area, giving Liverpool a penalty kick, which kicked off Liverpool's counterattack.

Trapani played a single striker today, and was somewhat conservative in tactics. Ballack did not put enough pressure on Milan, so Gattuso did not need to frequently go to the penalty area to help Maldini and others.

As the game progressed, the form of some players on both sides began to improve, while others showed not particularly good form, and the game began to change.

The old demon Inzaghi on the Milan side was in very good form. Inzaghi was the kind of striker who could send the ball to the opponent's goal from any angle and in any way in the penalty area.

Milan's two passes didn't look like opportunities at all, but Inzaghi still found a way to shoot, and it was quite concealed. In the 14th minute, Seedorf passed the ball, and Inzaghi was like a spring, rushing to Samuel's chest to shoot. This shot was like a transit station, and Inzaghi flew to cushion the ball.

This was a shot, and it was very concealed. It didn't hit Samuel's chest, but flew over Samuel's head and flew towards the goal. It was a dead end. The ball went to the corner. Fortunately, Kameni was very focused and moved quickly, and he used his fingertips to push the ball out of the crossbar.

Trapani's defense was shocked and sweaty. Ranieri loudly expressed his dissatisfaction on the sidelines. He was very unhappy that Trapani's two central defenders were not close enough to Inzaghi.

However, in the first 20 minutes, Trapani did a good job of restricting Kaka. Kaka is a player who needs space. The difference between him and Messi is that Messi is small and can rely on his skillful dribbling, turning and reversing in a small space to fight his way out, but Kaka can't do that. Once the space is small, it is very difficult for him. But he has another advantage, that is, he is very good at running. He is called a front midfielder and he can also grab points through running.

But until now, Kaka's performance can hardly be called outstanding, but rather bland.

The performance of the two defensive players on Trapani's side is somewhat mediocre. It is Ballack who really performs well. His retreat to assist in defense and several long passes in the backcourt are quite skillful.

Forward Adriano did not have many opportunities to get the ball, and he only shot once, which did not pose a big enough threat to Dida.

Half an hour has passed, and each has shot. Milan seems to be closer to scoring, but it is only a seeming.

The scene looked a little anxious and stuffy, but the audience in the stands didn't see it that way. The audience made various noises from time to time as the plot of a stage went up and down.

Hugo sat in the box, watching the game attentively, without chatting, and was always nervous. When he saw Inzaghi's shot, he would hold the handrail tightly and sweat.

"It needs a little change now. It would be great if I could score a goal!" Hugo thought silently in his heart.

There will always be a turning point in the game. The key is to see who can grasp it first.

In the 37th minute, Milan ushered in a turning point. Essien fouled Kaka at the front of the penalty area and was penalized by Deville for a direct set-piece. This position was in the middle, about 23 meters away from the goal, and the position was quite good.

Trapani was facing a big enemy, with a dense wall of people, and Kameni was also very nervous.

Pirlo was in front of the ball, and he was ready to take the set-piece.

Pirlo's choice was to shoot directly, the ball passed over the wall and fell rapidly. Kameni dived to the side, but unfortunately he didn't clear the ball far enough. Seedorf took the ball on the right and passed it. Inzaghi shot again. Trapani was doomed this time. Kameni and Mascherano in front of the goal failed to block the ball, and the ball went into Trapani's net!

Milan took the lead 1:0!

Inzaghi got up from the ground and roared like crazy, running to the sidelines!

This goal hit the hearts of Trapani players and fans like a hammer!

Is it another failure? ! Dark clouds gathered in the hearts of Trapani people!

Ancelotti cheered excitedly on the sidelines, while Ranieri kept mumbling something, perhaps scolding the defensive players for not paying attention and not moving fast enough for Milan's second attack.

"It's shit! It's all fucking shit!" Hugo shook his head helplessly.

"Don't be depressed! There is still time! The team that scores first may not win the championship! They scored first two years ago, but they didn't win the championship in the end!" Julia, who was sitting next to Hugo, reached out and grabbed Hugo's arm to comfort him.

"Focus! Focus! Move slowly!" Kameni clapped his hands and cheered his teammates loudly. He really tried his best. Pirlo's free kick was of very high quality. Kameni couldn't send the ball out of the baseline. He relied entirely on instinct.

The players in the wall did not disperse in time and make effective defense. This is the core of the problem.

Messi did not return to his penalty area. He was the point responsible for counterattacks on the periphery. Seeing Milan's goal, Messi felt bad. He knew the opposing team very well. If nothing unexpected happened, Milan would be more cautious and rely on their technical strength in the midfield to control the football and slow down the offensive rhythm, so that Trapani could not bite!

"I need the ball!" Messi muttered silently in his heart, and instantly regained his fighting spirit. No one would admit defeat, and the game was still early.

The restart was not beyond Messi's expectations. Milan consciously controlled the ball and slowed down the offensive rhythm. They preferred to kill time in the backcourt. Messi, Adriano and Di Maria were exhausted in the frontcourt, constantly pressing them, but the effect was not ideal. High-position pressing requires the joint efforts of the whole team. It is obviously not enough to rely on three forwards alone. Milan's defenders have average passing ability, but they can't stand Pirlo's position further back, and he can pass the ball to where it should go.

Trapani's three forwards were somewhat out of touch with the midfield and backcourt. Milan instead focused on taking advantage of such loopholes and frequently sent the ball to the frontcourt. However, Trapani always kept enough people in the backcourt. Essien had a bit of a sense of shame and courage. Several interceptions were relatively in place, but passing the ball was always a troublesome thing. Milan's formation was maintained very well.

The game was already at the 43rd minute. Pirlo sent another pass in the backcourt, getting rid of Trapani's pressure on the front line. After Seedorf got the ball, he tried to counter offside with a straight pass, but failed. Kameni attacked in time to resolve the trouble.

After Kameni got the ball, he saw Maicon asking for the ball without stopping. He threw the ball to start the attack. After Maicon got the ball, he made a two-pass cooperation with Ballack and rushed along the side again. Facing the double-teaming of Kaka and Ambrosini, Maicon accidentally broke out of their encirclement in the chaos and ran forward.

Gattuso was attracted by Maicon and planned to perform a tackle again. Who knew that Maicon, who was dribbling the ball, was not a reckless man. He felt Gattuso moving and sensed Messi's position. As soon as Gattuso moved, Maicon gave the ball to Messi and continued to run forward to cover Messi and attract Kaladze's defensive attention.

When Messi received the ball, there was no one defending him. Pirlo came to defend, obviously intending to commit a foul, but Messi passed him but was not tripped by him. He stumbled and regained his balance in two or three steps. Maldini never moved forward, but retreated.

Messi walked with the ball to the front and middle of the penalty area, where the defense was the weakest. He just needed to lead Maldini away.

Messi was great. He pretended to shoot and tricked Maldini into falling to the ground to block. He made a lob pass. Adriano, who was very close, turned around and bypassed Nesta. He successfully countered the offside. Nesta also used his hands, but he couldn't stop Adriano's momentum.

Messi's lob pass was very exquisite. Adriano was a left-footed player, so he could just hold Nesta tightly in the air on the side. Adriano did not disappoint Messi's wonderful pass. He held Nesta and volleyed with his left foot to the back foot.
