My name is Colani
Chapter 811 Milan is here
Milan's players were ecstatic, and the away fans cheered Nesta's name loudly. Nesta rarely scored and was no longer in his peak form. In his early years, Nesta himself was the strongest defender in Italy, and he was also recognized by many forwards.
Nesta played one less day, how could the fans not be happy for him? A good player is easy to be recognized by many fans. After Nesta scored, even the home fans booed well.
"Set-piece defense is really a difficult problem!" Hugo complained.
Hugo was actually wrong. Under Wenger's training this season, their set-piece goals have changed a bit. After 15 rounds of the game, Trapani only lost three set-piece goals, which is not a high percentage of their goals.
Wenger was born in the Premier League after all. If he did not pay attention to set-piece defense in that league, he would undoubtedly suffer a great loss. How could Wenger, who has been involved for many years, not have his own rules in set-piece defense!
There are several opponents Hugo is particularly reluctant to lose this season. The first is Naples. He and De Laurentiis have a deep hatred. The second is the two Milan teams. On the one hand, Milan is a northern team, and on the other hand, they have obviously become one of the biggest obstacles for Trapani to win the championship. The third is Palermo. The match between the two teams is not like a derby, but it is still a derby. Hugo doesn't want to be teased by Zan Dazui.
Zan Dazui's words are the kind that no matter whether you are familiar with him or not, you can't stand it. Even though Hugo is an ally, the two of them had a lot of verbal battles in the past few years. It's only because Hugo hasn't paid too much attention to football in the past two years that everyone has eased up.
Hugo was indeed a little annoyed emotionally after falling behind Milan, and the atmosphere in the box was a little dull.
There was no small talk, and everyone's attention was focused on the game.
Allegri stood on the sidelines, constantly raising his hands and pressing them down. He meant to ask Milan's players to stay calm in this game. Milan is not that bad. This does not mean that their paper strength has reached the top level, but their mentality.
In the Champions League group stage, they were in the same group as Real Madrid. Their performance in the two rounds was remarkable. Their mental attributes were absolutely top-notch. This was the benefit brought by their veterans. Many people in Milan have experienced the test of various major competitions and are relatively stable.
With a wave of consecutive victories, the tall and thin Wenger climbed to the top of the standings and qualified for the Champions League in advance. He has gradually won the support and trust of the team. He also signaled his team on the sidelines to stay calm and not ignore defense. Wenger may understand better than anyone that it is difficult to win the championship without defense.
He has a gorgeous offensive football mindset, but it does not mean that he does not value defense. When he led Arsenal to win the championship, the number of goals lost said it all.
Now he is just a little worried about the impatience of the young players in the team. His worry is not unnecessary. The six-game winning streak has inevitably made many players a little cocky. Even though Wenger has made it clear on the sidelines that everyone should not be impatient, some Trapani players still want to get the score back immediately. They are crazy in the frontcourt against Milan players.
But this trick is really not very useful for Milan. Pirlo controls the ball very steadily under the escort of Ambrosini and Gattuso. The Trapani players with inconsistent ideas can't achieve the density of the Bielsa era. Milan can easily achieve a breakthrough and let the ball come out completely from the backcourt. Mascherano and Schweinsteiger are very experienced and have to use fouls to organize the emptiness in the midfield several times.
Milan is not in a hurry at all. They seem to be stalling for time. They encountered a foul, but they passed the ball back in the backcourt again and didn't easily pass the ball to the frontcourt. A few minutes later, with Wenger constantly shouting loudly, Trapani players calmed down and stopped pressing so fiercely.
Milan was naturally happy with this, dragging the game out. The 45 minutes of the first half passed quickly. Trapani created a lot of opportunities in the first 30 minutes, but in the last 10 minutes, Trapani's formation moved forward, but he didn't create many opportunities. Allegri's team played a bit "rogue"!
"Disgusting" uncle made Hugo and others angry, but like Wenger, they were helpless.
After the 15-minute break in the halftime, Wenger did not make any substitutions, but made some fine-tuning to the tactics. He asked the players to find Toni as the center forward more often, encourage Messi to get closer to the penalty area on the wing, and Di Maria to strengthen the cross.
The actual effect was not very good. In more than ten minutes, Toni's fulcrum role in the frontcourt was completely unplayable. Nesta and Silva were in excellent condition, and Toni was struggling. Wenger and the assistant coaches studied for a while and replaced Toni with Cavani. The team changed tactics again and increased the intensity of high-pressure pressing.
Wenger does not have the "bad habits" of Italian coaches. Once they are ahead, Italian coaches will generally seek to slow down the ball's advancement, start playing conservatively, and push defensive counterattacks to the extreme. Even if they are one goal behind, they do not seem to panic. But Wenger is different. Wenger tried every means to score goals. At halftime, he wanted to make substitutions and put more pressure on Milan to control the ball in the frontcourt. But Toni had only played for 45 minutes after all, and he really couldn't do it.
After Cavani came on the pitch, Trapani's pressing in the frontcourt suddenly increased. Cavani has always been a player who is very good at running in the frontcourt. He came on the pitch for only a few minutes. In the 67th minute, Trapani successfully intercepted the ball in the frontcourt. Modric grabbed the ball from Pirlo's feet, which was suspected of a foul, but Rizzoli did not blow the whistle. Modric sent a straight pass from the wing.
Messi quickly inserted himself, passed Zambrotta and Silva in the penalty area, and finally hit a dead corner. Abbiati, who played bravely in the first half, could only sigh helplessly. Trapani finally equalized the score, and the home fans finally cheered to dispel the depression of the first half.
Messi's shot is very special. In fact, his power is not great, but his angle is very good, and he likes to shoot close to the ground. This kind of shot is based on his accurate judgment of the goalkeeper's position. If the position is good, the goalkeeper will naturally not have a problem getting down to the ground, but if the goalkeeper's position is not good enough, it will be quite troublesome to save the ball when falling down.
Fans who don't understand football may think that Messi's power is not great, and Abbiati seems to have a good position, but experts know that it is difficult for Abbiati to save this ball.
After scoring the equalizer, Trapani continued to put high pressure on Milan. Milan's error rate was a bit high. Their players were already a little tired. Ambrosini made too many mistakes. Allegri made a quick decision and replaced Ambrosini with Flamini.
Flamini's role in Arsenal was to protect Fabregas. Milan signed him for free at that time, which inevitably replaced Gattuso, but Flamini was obviously not very adaptable to the football environment in Italy. Now he is considered a substitute.
However, he was in pretty good shape after coming on the field today, providing several interceptions, but the overall situation of both sides was no longer in line with Allegri's pace. The players of both sides played offensive battles on the field, and the connection between Milan's backcourt and forward line was somewhat disconnected.
Ibrahimovic and Robinho's condition improved significantly in the second half. Milan and Trapani both got opportunities. Now everyone is competing to see who can seize more opportunities and who can make fewer mistakes in the backcourt.
