Star Coach

Chapter 334: Dawn of the League

Even in the Champions League, Jiangshan didn't want Ronaldo to take risks. The more games this guy played, the more physical collisions he had with his opponents, and the greater the possibility of injury.

Don't play with fire.

The score of 2:0 at halftime was enough to lock in the victory, and Jiangshan replaced Ronaldo at halftime. Fat Ronaldo was still a little unhappy, he wanted to score twice and a hat trick.

"Listen, for you, health is the most important thing. The later the knockout rounds, the more obvious your importance will be. Do you understand?" Jiangshan comforted, "You are our trump card, you must stay healthy, and at the critical moment, you still have to rely on you to kill the opponent."

I don't know if Ronaldo listened to it, but at least he nodded and agreed with Jiangshan's arrangement.

In the second half of the game, Inzaghi came on the field. He would have a highlight performance in spring, and the spring season is here again. Similarly, this guy received a pass from Ronaldinho and scored easily.

Leading 3:0 away, Milan has already secured a place in the quarterfinals. In the Champions League quarterfinals, Milan has occupied a place in advance. He began to adjust the lineup, let more players play in the Champions League, and try new cooperation and playing styles.

Stam also got a chance to play. He wanted to bid farewell with a championship in his last year of battle. Unfortunately, his pace was slow and he was counterattacked by Meireles and failed to stop the opponent.

Instead, he gave a penalty kick.

Before the end of the game, AC Milan was awarded a penalty kick, and Postiga scored in one fell swoop, tying the score to 1:3.

Breaking the duck egg at home, saving a little face, and retaining the suspense of the next round of the game. Milan only has a two-goal lead. They still have a chance, maybe, to explode away?

At the end of the game, Jiangshan was quite satisfied with the result, "The Champions League has always been very difficult. Porto is a great opponent. They have strong strength and they may also advance."

"It's too early to talk about the 2-goal lead now. Porto definitely has the strength to beat Milan. I believe it, so I will prepare for the second round very carefully."

Jiangshan gave Porto the greatest praise. The old coach Pereira also returned the favor, "Although I don't want to admit it, in fact, Jiangshan is the greatest head coach of the younger generation. He has countless trophies and he is the most successful one."

"I am Portuguese. In my heart, of course I think Mourinho is the best youth coach, but compared with the championship trophies, he is still not as good as Jiangshan. I am also very sorry about this."

Straightforward old man, you will be fired soon. Porto is one of Mourinho's bases and the center of the Mendes system. It is wrong for you to do this.

But he is right. Compared with the league championship, Jiangshan is ahead. Mourinho has Portuguese Super League and Premier League medals, Jiangshan has Ligue 1, Bundesliga and Serie A medals. Of course, the Serie A medal was confiscated.

Compared with European champions. Mourinho has the UEFA Cup and the Champions League, both of which were won in Porto, glorious days; Jiangshan has two Champions League trophies and one UEFA Cup trophy, more than Magic Bird, and Jiangshan's Champions League trophy was won by leading different teams.

It is more difficult. As for trophies such as the Cup and the Club World Cup, Jiangshan also has a huge advantage. No matter how you compare, Jiangshan wins.

The first round of the Champions League ended, Milan beat Porto 3:1 away, basically locking in a ticket to the quarterfinals.

Several other games were equally exciting. Although they were not played on the same day, they still caused discussions only one day apart.

Lille lost 0:1 to Manchester United at home, and Manchester United took the lead; Eindhoven beat Arsenal 1:0 at home, Arsenal unexpectedly lost, and the next round is a bit suspenseful; Celtic lost 0:1 to Chelsea at home; Real Madrid fought Bayern at home for 300 rounds, and finally won 3:2 against the visiting Bayern. Real Madrid won at home, and they can advance if they keep a draw in the next round, but Bayern scored two away goals, and they also have a certain advantage in the next round, and the suspense is still there.

Roma drew with Lyon 0:0 at home and lost the lead; Barcelona lost 1:2 at home to Liverpool led by Benitez. Liverpool took every step very steadily and they also wanted to win the championship.

As for Inter Milan, they were tied with Valencia at home, but they were lucky. Zanetti scored a header worth a million in overtime and the team finally won 3:2.

Such a score also gave Inter Milan a little advantage. If they could keep the draw away from home, they could advance to the quarterfinals.

Mancini was very excited. The team was expected to win the series and enter the quarterfinals of the Champions League. Moratti immediately put pressure on the team. Even if he gave up the league game for a short time, he had to ensure that the team entered the quarterfinals of the Champions League.

The Champions League is the stage to prove Inter Milan's strength. Moratti knew this better than anyone else.

Jiangshan liked this result very much, which was different from the previous life. In the last life, Inter Milan tied with Valencia 2:2 at home and 0:0 away, and was eliminated by Valencia with away goals, which was frustrating.

Now, Inter Milan played harder and won the game, which was a gain. Jiangshan was very pleased. The harder they worked, the greater the possibility of losing in the league, and AC Milan would have a little more chance to narrow the points gap.

After the Champions League game, there was only 3 days of rest. Inter Milan challenged Catania of Serie A away. Catania was lucky and tied Inter Milan 0:0 at home, winning a precious point.

At the same time, AC Milan played against Sampdoria at home. Facing Sampdoria, who was in the middle of the league, Jiangshan made careful rotations and arranged a strong lineup. Inter Milan had already lost points. As long as they did not lose points, Milan could close the score.

The opportunity was approaching little by little.

But Milan also experienced a hard Champions League match. Even if it was just a match, the game was still not easy. Both sides were in a stalemate for almost the entire game. Milan played weakly and the players were not excited enough.

On the other hand, Sampdoria, in order to defeat Milan, they were united. Countless players were piled up on the defensive end, and they could not penetrate at all. The offensive end also frequently counterattacked and threatened Milan's goal.

Jiangshan carefully adjusted the tactics and also needed to stabilize the defense. Nesta also came on the field at the last moment to block two shots. In the 81st minute of the game, Milan got a set piece in the frontcourt.

Ronaldinho stood in front of the ball, showed his footwork, and scored directly from the set piece. In the end, Milan defeated Sampdoria 1:0 at home with Ronaldinho's goal and won all 3 points.

This game was more thrilling than the away game in the Champions League, but the result was good. As long as one more goal than the opponent, it would be 3 points. After the 25th round of the league, AC Milan finally narrowed the points gap to 3 points, and the dawn of the league summit finally appeared.

"Our game against Inter Milan is the 28th round of the league, just after the second round of the Champions League round of 16." Simeone reported to Jiangshan.

Now the score is close, and when the two teams face off directly, as long as AC Milan defeats Inter Milan, the points gap can be eliminated.
