Chapter 354

San Siro, the second round of the Champions League group match between AC Milan and Hamburg showed an unequal pattern from the beginning.

Even if AC Milan put on a positive formation, the reality is that Hamburg is gradually gaining the upper hand in this stadium!

When AC Milan takes a point from Camp Nou, people may think that AC Milan is equal to Barcelona. In fact, there is a significant difference in actual combat power between AC Milan playing defensive counterattack away and trying to take the initiative to attack Hamburg at home.

Even if Pato, Milan's son-in-law, did not appear, even if he was on the court, Hamburg would not give him the space to break through Barcelona's defense, and forcing him to pass the ball to Navas.

Hamburg is not Barcelona and will not force opponents away from their own goals.

At the same time, Hamburg's attention to defense has also achieved the effect of cutting the formation of AC Milan.

Seedorf, who is not active enough to run, only needs DeMille to block it. Cantor can play his characteristics of wide running coverage and attack from all directions!

Nocerino, abate, Antonini, AC Milan, those players who assisted to the front court were inadvertently robbed by Cantor!

Royce and glitzmann wantonly sprinkle their offensive passion with the fire support of de Brauner and lakitic, and Cantor is the harvester who sweeps the field madly and makes the opponent almost desperate!

But after 25 minutes, Hamburg still failed to score!

Nesta's role in leading the defense line is not only the impeccability of individual defense, but also his organization and mobilization of teammates' defensive positions and joint defense, which makes Hamburg's strong attack firepower always look a little worse.

In the 27th minute of the game, abate assisted to grab the front court and passed the ball straight ahead before Cantor's assist defense was in place. Cassano pulled the ball across the sideline and then changed to the outside line to pass Matuidi. Although Matuidi was not cleaned, it also allowed Cassano to find the right line for passing the ball.

Ibrahimovic succeeded in receiving in the right rib of the restricted area. He used his foot technology to fake shoot to deceive Boateng's center of gravity, and then pulled the ball to shoot quickly. The shot was very sudden and hidden. The football flew straight to the near corner of the goal. Although Navas blocked the near corner of the goal, he was in a panic and tried to block the ball out of the bottom line.

Ibrahimovic clapped his hands to boost the team's morale and expected everyone to make persistent efforts.

But their threat attack is more like a flash in the pan. After a long silence, it is cold and dazzling.

In the 30th minute of the game, lakitic hit the ball to the front court, Tiago Silva pressed glitzman on the restricted area line, Nesta asked abate to recover the Middle Road, and he would choose to rob and block Hamburg at any time.

In the past period of time, Hamburg's repeated long-range shots have made AC Milan feel a great threat. If AC Milan were not lucky, Hamburg could not complete the goal after playing two goalposts. Otherwise, the score would have been rewritten at this time.

Long range shooting is not necessarily the ultimate means of Hamburg's final goal. As long as the threat comes out, it will have tactical effect.

In order to strengthen the defense in front of the restricted area, AC Milan had to let the full back fill the middle space, and then the full back can defend forward.

The advantage of this is that it can not only curb the opponent's long-range threat, but also avoid empty passing and cutting cooperation with the opponent after exposing his origin.

But in this way, Hamburg can play the advantage of attack depth!

Because Matuidi's assists are coming up!

When Matuidi set the edge and went to the bottom, lakitic snatched the ball in Nocerino and sent it to de Brauner. The latter didn't make any adjustment and sent the ball to the road outside the restricted area.

Matuidi stopped the ball in front of the bottom line of the sideline and then made a potential pass. At this time, abate pulled out to block his pass line, but unexpectedly, Matuidi made a fake fax deduction and even deducted the ball after abate into the restricted area!

Seeing this scene, situ Yunbing couldn't help getting excited on the sidelines!

The real offensive is coming!

Lakitic and de Brauner ran to meet outside the restricted area, and glitzmann pressed the front area. Just at the critical moment, Nesta was keenly aware of the forward inserting trend from the rear of his side at the moment of matuyidi's passing, and matuyidi's passing direction was also the front point in front of the goal!

This is a narrower but more hidden passing line. Nesta turned and fell down decisively to block the ball out of the bottom line!

Hoo!

The AC Milan fans in the stands cheered and looked respectful at the same time.

Nesta, 35, was the busiest man in AC Milan's defense in the first half. He blocked Royce, cut off glizman, and blocked de Brauner's long-range shot with his body. Now, he is still in danger!

Although Hamburg does not measure the pace of the game accurately like Barcelona, and the fire of tearing up the opponent's defense is not perfect, Hamburg is more frequent in simplifying the number of fast attacks and transporting threat balls after all. They are simple, direct and do not hide their edge. It seems that the moves are deadly!

AC Milan have not lost the ball until now. Nesta has contributed a lot. How they expect Nesta to be a few years younger. They hope that time will go slower and let Nesta fight on the field for a few more years. At least, they should wait for a suitable successor to partner Tiago Silva!

But the most ruthless thing on the field is time.

After seeing that the threat attack had failed again, situ Yunbing closed his eyes in disappointment, and then opened them again. His eyes were as sharp as a knife!

If the situation of AC Milan forces them to score all three points at home, the real situation is that Hamburg has a stronger desire to win than AC Milan!

Hamburg quickly opened the corner and the football was short passed to the foot of Royce at the edge. Royce turned the ball naturally and lightly when Nocerino came to press it, and then crossed it. Glizman and lakitic inserted the front point and middle of the restricted area. At this time, Royce chose to start and cross without waiting for van Bommel to press it.

The football was hoisted to the back of the restricted area, the defense area of Tiago Silva!

When Silva tried to head out, a great figure appeared in front of him. He took off at the same time with the other party, but the other party was obviously one position ahead of him!

Dutch defender star van Dijk!

There seems to be no suspense about the battle in the air in the restricted area of AC Milan. The height gap between Silva and van Dijk is 10 cm, and Silva's take-off place is determined according to his jumping limit height, and van Dijk is closer to football than him!

Because Van Dyke is taller, and Van Dyke is full of momentum!

Tiago Silva seems to be one head shorter than van Dijk in the air!

The speed and position before taking off have decided the outcome!

Van Dijk headed the penalty into AC Milan's goal behind the penalty area like a giant!

There's nothing Abbiati can do.

Tiago Silva was shocked!

Perhaps he had been under the impact of thin players such as glitzmann, Royce and de Brauner. Suddenly, his opponent became a tall van Dijk. This sharp contrast caught him off guard!

Although van Dijk is only 20 years old, he has a hidden domineering spirit. During the celebration, he roared and excited Hamburg fans!

The Dutch centre back star who rose like a comet under situ Yunbing scored an unforgettable goal at the San Siro!

"Fandick! Van Dijk header! Tiago Silva was defeated in fighting for the aerial ball this time!

Van Dijk accidentally killed in front of AC Milan and completed the goal. Royce sent an assist!

Hamburg tried all kinds of methods, and finally broke the city gate of AC Milan with a header from the defender!

AC Milan have a big disadvantage at home today. Their midfield is completely occupied. Seedorf is invisible and walks most of the time. Nocerino works very hard, but there are many mistakes. What can van Bommel, 34, do? The repeated impact of de Brauner and lakitic made it difficult for him to look around! "

Situ Yunbing raised his fists and looked very cold. This goal is too critical!

Will force AC Milan to continue to strengthen the offensive!

And their defense will expose more flaws!

It is no exaggeration to say that if AC Milan's last visit to Camp Nou was not Pato's amazing breakthrough soon after the opening, resulting in a single goal, which brought a score advantage, AC Milan could not take a point from Camp Nou!

Now, although AC Milan is the champion of Serie A, if not for the decline of Inter Milan's strength after Mourinho's departure, AC Milan may not have a chance to win the title. Their current strength is completely impossible to get a scene advantage in the top confrontation in Europe!

Allegri should also understand that the most suitable way for their current lineup is defensive counterattack.

Because defensive counterattack can compress the backcourt space, it can reduce the coverage and improve the defensive quality for veterans such as van Bommel and Nesta, and they also have speed strikers such as Pato.

But if it is a positive contest, the most intuitive change is that each player has more space to be responsible. For example, van Bommel can only simply defend and may not be able to keep up with the rhythm of his opponent. Seedorf, who is old enough to seem to have some difficulty in sprint, is easier to be restrained by his opponent.

It is because of the decline of the overall strength of Serie A that AC Milan have no choice but to attack hard in most games, and they have Ibrahimovic, who will play a significant role in positional warfare.

Unfortunately, the Champions League is not Serie A. the opponents in the Champions League will not play slow football with AC Milan. They only need strong impact to defeat AC Milan.

Maybe in this group, because of Barcelona, the comparison effect is not very convincing, because the comparison team is really too strong.

But ask the fans all over the world, 90% of the fans don't think that Serie A Champion AC Milan can take advantage of the top four teams in the Premier League. If there are exceptions, it can only be Arsenal or Manchester City. The former is a decline in strength and the latter is inexperienced.

Over the past five years, the rhythm impact of the Premier League has promoted the development of modern football to a certain extent, but it coincides with the trough of Serie A. they have not been able to keep up with this wave. Now, the rhythm of any mainstream playing method in Europe will not be slow!

But AC Milan has so many veterans that they can't get up quickly.
