Star Coach

In the first half, Milan led by two goals. The ball possession ratio was 56% to 44%. The number of threats to the ball was also exceeded. In several key indicators, Milan was significantly ahead of Barcelona.

Barcelona fans around the world are not calm anymore. What is going on? They rarely see Barcelona losing possession to their opponents, especially at home, where they almost always overpower their opponents.

Facing Liverpool in the quarter-finals, Benitez defended and counterattacked. Barcelona also had a ball possession ratio of 70% to 30%. Now facing the powerful Milan, even the ball possession rate that they are most proud of The rate is also lagging behind.

Rijkaard struggled to think of a solution, and the team was turned into a counterattack team. He had a big problem. He did not correctly estimate Jiangshan's ability. Now that he is better, he has suffered.

"Substitution, substitution at the beginning of the second half." Rijkaard gritted his teeth and looked at the young Iniesta. After thinking for a while, he still didn't trust him and it would be better to give the veteran a chance.

At this time, the team needs to stabilize the situation. "Deco comes down to rest. Edmilson, you come out and focus on the defensive midfielder. Pay attention to your position."

Xavi thought for a moment and finally said, "I think we should increase the ball holding points, strengthen the offense, and let Iniesta play. He can change the situation."

Rijkaard rolled his eyes and said, "Can you guarantee it? I am the head coach. Iniesta is too young, and Jiangshan's tactical arrangements are very targeted. You don't understand."

He originally wanted to hold Harvey down directly, but now that the team was lagging behind, he still explained that there should be no chaos within the team.

Xavi was silent and curled his lips with disdain in his eyes; Iniesta also didn't speak, and his thoughts were similar to Xavi's. They intend to support their new head coach if given the chance.

At the beginning of the second half, Rijkaard's face changed again, turning blue and purple, which looked particularly beautiful. Harvey sneered, "Hmph, hum, look at him, he's ahead of you."

Barcelona made substitutions, and Jiangshan also made substitutions, replacing Vieri who performed extremely well in the first half. In fact, it was not that Jiangshan wanted to replace him, but Jiangshan guessed that Rijkaard would work hard in the second half and then let Iniesta play.

Therefore, he arranged for Vogel to play to deal with Iniesta. That didn't seem to be the case. Rijkaard's reaction was a little worse than he thought.

Jiang Shan was disappointed, "This black swan is not strong enough. He is no match for me."

Vieri has already come off, Rijkaard stamped his feet, "Vieri has come off, Shevchenko and Kaká are both here. Their offensive capabilities are equally strong, so they must defend."

Strong defense, not a problem. Milan fans kept chanting Jiangshan's name, as well as the names of heroes. At half-time, the away team led 2:0. They had a huge advantage that they did not expect.

Milan fans thought that this game would be the same as when they faced Chelsea, falling behind 0:2 at the beginning, and then making a desperate counterattack!

Jiang Shan was very calm. He looked at the situation on the field and pointed out Simeone, "The tactics of two forwards to deal with Barcelona's passing and control are not conventional methods, it is just an accident. Remember, don't be fooled."

Simeone nodded, "Then how to deal with passing and controlling? Is the best way to defend and counterattack?"

"Of course it's pressing in the frontcourt and passing and cutting quickly. Only crazy pressing can make the passing and control tactics collapse. Of course, if you do this, the defensive pressure in the backcourt will be very high. You must have players who are good at passing and shooting to be able to perform well. ”

Simeone was convinced, "I understand. If I coach in La Liga, I will definitely face Barcelona. Thank you! Coach, thank you."

"I brought you here, and I will definitely tell you my feelings." Jiang Shan disagreed. "Some things are correct now, but they may change in a few years."

"Football tactics are always developing. If you don't lead the trend, you will be eliminated sooner or later." Jiang Shan looked at Barcelona's tactics, "Did you see it? Rijkaard actually didn't have many tactical innovations. He passed the ball for the sake of passing the ball. "

Simone seemed to understand but didn't understand it very well, but he didn't dare to ask. Jiang Shan had already explained it to him. Whether he understood it or not depended on his understanding.

After the start of the second half, Milan did not have high requirements for the rhythm of passing and control. Instead, they often reversed the ball in the backcourt, which was quite easy. Messi, Eto'o, and Giuly kept attacking, but the rhythm was very poor and they could not steal it. Ball.

Messi felt extremely depressed, "The country is like a walking bird, and I am just that little bird, damn it."

Messi went crazy, suddenly kicked up his feet and tackled Ambrosini. Ambrosini flew out directly, fell to the ground, and kept rolling. The team doctor rushed up to check the injury.

Jiang Shan couldn't sit still anymore and rushed to the sidelines immediately to communicate with Ambrosini, worried that something would go wrong with the team's generals.

Messi was confused and at a loss. After all, he was still young. When he saw the Milan players coming around, his whole body was trembling. "I, it wasn't me. I didn't kick him. He flew out on his own."

"Referee, he didn't mean it. Give him a chance." Jiang Shan said righteously. The little guy needs confidence. He doesn't want the football world to lose a genius because of this incident.

Messi looked at Jiangshan in shock, it seemed that he was not that bad.

The referee finally cleared the ball and did not show a red card, just a yellow card. There was no big problem. Ambrosini is not a big problem, so for the sake of safety, we will replace him.

Inzaghi came on and Ambrosini came off to rest. "Well done, you have to deal with Messi in the next game."

"Wrap them around me, they are still a little too tender." Ambrosini hugged Jiang Shan.

The game has passed 60 minutes, the score is still 2:0, Milan is leading, and it is still going on. After Messi's yellow card, Barcelona's morale also declined, and the intensity of the counterattack dropped a lot.

Do you admit defeat in advance? Jiang Shan was a little bored, "Is this Barcelona? They played really well when things were going smoothly, but now, they're not playing well!"

Rijkaard stood on the sidelines and asked the team to press forward boldly and not give up the game, but there was no way. Eto'o gave up. He was taught by Nesta to be a good person, and the whole game was very uncomfortable.

The veteran Stam intercepted Giuly's pass, took a flying kick, and sent it to the frontcourt. Shevchenko took a step forward, crossed over, and sent it out for a through ball.

Here it comes, a brilliant through ball. Harvey drooled after seeing it, "What a great through ball performance, we should learn from Jiang Shan. If I control the midfield rhythm, I will definitely send countless through balls."

Harvey followed the defense, but it was too late. Kaka also passed by him. His speed was not fast at all. Harvey tried his best.

Inzaghi didn't know when he had appeared in front of the penalty area line, suddenly ducked and faced the ball, just a little bit, like stroking a lover's hair.

Smooth, natural, relaxed and freehand. Fly towards the goal.

Valdes knelt on the ground. He didn't know why Puyol was beaten by Inzaghi like the road in the early morning. He didn't know how to defend this kick. At least, it was very difficult.

Inzaghi sent out a flying knife, and he was running to celebrate.
