Football: Starting from the 05 World Youth Championship

In fact, Lin Feng didn’t think about humiliating Nesta on purpose or anything, he just subconsciously felt that the action might get past the defensive player, so he did it.

Nesta was caught in the crossfire. It's just bad luck for him!
Ancelotti is really unable to sit still now. The longer the situation drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for them.

But before the score was actually changed, he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart.

But now, Lin Feng's goal shattered his slight chance of luck and made him start to get anxious.

So, in the 54th minute of the second half, Ancelotti couldn't wait to make a substitution.

Under the watchful eyes of fans all over the world, the alien Ronaldo came on the field and replaced Milan's midfielder Ambrosini.

Substitute offensive players for defensive players and actively change formations.

AC Milan is going to fight to the death with Inter Milan!
Ancelotti knew very well that his side was full of veterans, and the longer the time went, the more disadvantageous it would be for them.

Therefore, we must equalize the score as soon as possible while the players can still run.

Seeing Ronaldinho on the court, some old fans burst into tears.

【Come on, aliens! 】

[I don’t ask you to score a goal, I just ask you not to get hurt again! ]

The Aliens' form has been declining since the World Cup.

Originally, in the early days of joining AC Milan, he was in very good form, scoring four goals in six appearances, which gave many fans hope.

But then the aliens were injured, and once they were injured, the injuries would never end, and new injuries would often occur after the old ones healed.

This has resulted in a sharp decrease in his appearances. Since joining AC Milan last summer, Ronaldo has played a total of 14 games for Milan, scoring 8 goals and providing 3 assists.

Judging from the data and goal efficiency, Ronaldinho's condition is actually not bad.

But it is these endless injuries that are really a headache.

It is said that because of his frequent injuries and high annual salary, Milan executives considered selling him or even terminating his contract.

AC Milan probably didn't expect that in the end they would have to rely on such a veteran who was almost given up by them to save the day!

After Ronaldo came on the pitch, he quickly brought changes to Milan's offense.

His height, weight and physical confrontation ability give Milan an extra fulcrum on the front line, a fulcrum that can take the ball with his back and act as a bridgehead.

Although Ronaldinho no longer has the speed he had when he was young due to injuries and weight gain.

But his footwork skills are still there, and so many years of experience are still there!
He knows very well how he should help the team.

In the 55th minute, Milan's counterattack pass found Ronaldo. If it was the young Ronaldo, after taking the ball, he would definitely use his dribbling and passing to try to break through.

If he can get past the player defending him, then he will have the chance to score!
But the 31-year-old Ronaldo did not do so. Instead, he snatched the ball and passed it back to Kaka who was following up in the middle. He used his body to screen Kaka, temporarily blocking the Inter Milan players who were guarding him.

Kaka dribbled into the penalty area under the cover of Ronaldo, and then chose to push the ball into the lower left corner of the goal with his right foot.

Unfortunately, Kaka was too focused on the angle and the ball almost hit the post and went out of the baseline.

Milan fans in the stands collectively held their heads in their hands. The players on the Milan bench had already rushed out to celebrate, but after seeing the ball slip through the goal, they all beat their chests and stamped their feet, expressing regret.

"What a pity, the ball was just a little bit short!"

"Kaka was a little too focused on the angle. In fact, from the position of his shot just now, Cesar didn't have time to save it!"

Both commentators also felt sorry for Kaka. If this ball had been scored, both teams would be back to the same starting line again and the offensive pressure on AC Milan would have been much less.

Like Inter Milan, AC Milan is also a team that is good at counterattacks.

If the team has top midfield breakthrough players like Kaka or Lin Feng, who doesn’t like to play defensive counterattacks?

These two people were born to defend and counterattack.

Kaka was a little upset for missing the opportunity, but he quickly shook off these negative emotions and gave a thumbs up to Ronaldo who passed the ball to him.

This ball was really well passed by Ronaldo, but it was a pity that he wasted his compatriot's wonderful pass.

But soon, Ronaldinho passed the ball to him again.

But Kaka did not choose to shoot because he saw Inzaghi in a better position.

After receiving the ball, Kaka accelerated instantly, slightly increased the distance between himself and the defender, and then decisively kicked the ball into the penalty area.

Inzaghi suddenly appeared like a ghost, and before the Inter Milan defender could break the ball, he slid and crashed the ball into Inter Milan's goal.

The score became 2:2, AC Milan tenaciously equalized the score!

Inzaghi, who scored the goal, ran all the way to the sidelines, clenched his fists, and roared loudly at the camera!

In recent years, due to injuries and age, Inzaghi's condition has declined a lot.

There was even a voice in the outside world that believed Inzaghi was too old and could no longer carry the burden of AC Milan's offense.

This made Inzaghi hold his breath in his heart, and he wanted to prove to everyone with practical actions that he was not so old that he could not play football!
And there was no better proof of his fightback than scoring in the Champions League final.

[Damn, something just jumped out like that, it's too fast! ]

[As expected of the fox in the penalty area, this ghostly movement is really hard to guard against! ]

[Is this really a 34-year-old veteran? A 34-year-old veteran can still be so flexible, it must be a lie! ]

[Those who say Jiu Ye is too old to play in Serie A, please don’t run away. Stand up and show everyone! ]

Inzaghi's goal caused a huge response among the fans. Many old fans who watched the game silently were blown away by his goal.

Inzaghi's goal made the situation of the game confusing again.

Originally, it would become increasingly difficult for AC Milan to play as the game progressed, but now with Ronaldo coming on, their offensive system in the frontcourt has been activated, Kaka and Inzaghi have been liberated, AC Milan's offensive power has increased a lot, and the threat to Inter Milan's goal has also increased suddenly.

This made Inter Milan's defense more difficult, and their own offense was also affected.

AC Milan was not much better. Although they had just scored a goal and their morale had boosted a lot, they did not dare to press on and launch a relentless attack on Inter Milan.

Because they are also afraid of Inter Milan’s counterattack!
As a result, due to the presence of these two "nuclear weapons" Lin Feng and Kaka, the game fell into a stalemate.

In the next ten minutes or so, both sides became cautious and did not dare to invest too much manpower in the offense. Instead, they kept strengthening their defense for fear of conceding a goal to the opponent.

Seeing time passing by little by little, Mancini could no longer sit still.

In the 75th minute, Inter Milan also made substitutions.

But unlike AC Milan, Inter Milan did not replace a forward to strengthen the attack, but instead withdrew a forward and replaced him with a midfielder.

Cruz was replaced by Stankovic.

This substitution left the fans confused and they couldn't help but glance at the scoreboard to confirm the score.

The two sides were clearly tied, so why did Inter Milan make such substitutions to weaken their own offensive power?
[Stupid Mancini, will you make a substitution? 】

[If you are an incompetent mediocre person, don't stay in the coaching position if you can't do the job! ] [If AC Milan wins this game, Mancini should be the first to win! ]

However, as the fans were cursing, they were surprised to find that the situation seemed to be tilting towards Inter Milan again.
Cruz's performance today was not bad. Mancini chose to replace him, obviously not because of his bad condition, but because Inter Milan needed to make certain adjustments tactically and had to sacrifice him.

"Crus, sorry, the team needs Torres' speed and impact!"

When Cruz left the field, Mancini took the initiative to hug him and explained to him.

If it were any other player, they might have complained about the coach's substitution.

But Cruise won't, because he has always been a hardworking gardener.

As it turned out, Mancini's substitution was not without purpose.

After Ambrosini left the field, Milan's control in the midfield and backcourt declined significantly.

Although Pirlo plays as a defensive midfielder, his defensive and intercepting abilities are actually quite average, and it is all up to Gattuso to shoulder the heavy responsibility of defense.

In other words, AC Milan plays with two defensive midfielders, but in fact it is a single defensive midfielder.

At this time, Stankovic, a new force, was allowed to play and strengthen the control over Milan's midfield, which immediately stunned Milan.

In the 77th minute, Inter Milan's midfielder intercepted the ball.

Maicon's bold move on the right gave Inter Milan a temporary numerical advantage on the wing.

But Milan responded quickly. After losing the ball, the two defensive midfielders quickly moved to the wing, trying to cooperate with the wing players to snatch the ball back.

Seeing that many opponents were approaching, Maicon didn't dare to carry the ball any further and quickly passed the ball to Lin Feng.

After Lin Feng received the ball, he first made a Cruyff turn to get past Pirlo who was clumsily trying to steal the ball, then accelerated and cut inside, using his speed to get rid of Gattuso's entanglement.

At this time, he had already arrived at the front of the penalty area. The position was very ambiguous. With Lin Feng's ability, he could shoot directly.

The Milan players, knowing his strength, did not dare to delay and quickly moved over to try to block Lin Feng's shooting line.

At the same time, Seedorf quietly retreated from the middle to the front of the penalty area, came behind Lin Feng, and prepared to attack him.

With Seedorf's ability, as long as he can intercept the ball from Lin Feng's feet, he can pass it to his own offensive players immediately.

After Ronaldo came on, Milan already had three attacking players in the frontcourt. Even without the support of the midfielders, the cooperation between the three players in the frontcourt was enough to resolve the battle.

The previous goal is the best evidence!

However, Seedorf's sneaky actions had long been exposed to Lin Feng's God's perspective.

Lin Feng pretended not to know, and before the opponent's encirclement was about to close, he suddenly kicked the ball and transferred it to the open left side.

"nice shot!"

"Lin Feng has a really broad vision!"

In the commentary booth, Zhang Lu and Zhan Jun couldn't help but shout "good" after seeing Lin Feng's pass.

In order to double-team Lin Feng, Milan's right side was completely empty.

Not everyone can find this kind of space, and even if they do, they may not be able to pass the ball out from the opponent's double-team.

At some point, Inter Milan's left-back Grosso had quietly come up.

Inter Milan has previously adopted the tactic of attacking on one side and defending on the other side, and never chooses to let both full-backs press forward at the same time.

But this time, Grosso appeared where he 'shouldn't' be, which was totally unexpected for Milan.

Lin Feng's pass fell right in front of him. The 'great left-back' Grosso, as if possessed by the souls of Facchetti, Cabrini and Maldini, bravely dribbled the ball into AC Milan's penalty area.

The Inter Milan fans who arrived at the scene couldn't help but stand up, and many of them even raised their fists high, clearly ready to celebrate the goal.

Then with a bang, Grosso screamed and fell into Milan's penalty area.

There was an uproar at the scene, and fans from both sides couldn't help but exclaim.

Beep!
A sharp whistle sounded and the referee pointed to the penalty spot.

Wow!
The exclamations at the scene suddenly became louder, especially from AC Milan fans, who found it unbelievable that the referee awarded a penalty to the opposing team in such a situation.

Oddo, who committed the foul, stepped forward excitedly and tried to explain to the referee that he did not commit a foul and that the opponent fell down by himself.

But the referee did not believe his explanation and insisted on his previous decision.

The slow-motion replay on the TV broadcast showed that the referee did not wrongly accuse Oddo of this ball.

When he was defending Grosso, he didn't have time to retract his feet and happened to trip the latter who was about to break through.

Although he may not have done it on purpose, it does not change the fact that the other person was tripped.

There is nothing wrong with the penalty given by the referee!

There is no problem with the penalty kick, but who will take it?

Both Torres and Vieira are eager to try. It would be so cool if they could score a goal in the Champions League final!
"Give the penalty to Lin, let him take it!"

However, before the two of them could speak, Mancini on the sidelines had already designated the candidates at the top of his voice.

Such a crucial penalty kick cannot afford any mistakes.

He doesn't trust anyone except Lin Feng!
And there is another benefit to letting Lin Feng take the penalty, which is to give him a chance to complete a hat trick!

Lin Feng had already scored two goals before, and he only needed one more goal to perform a hat trick in the Champions League final!
Completing a hat trick in this kind of game can greatly increase his popularity and fame, and build momentum and votes for his competition for the Ballon d'Or at the end of the year.

Mancini has gone to great lengths to help Lin Feng compete for the Golden Ball.

Lin Feng spread his hands to Torres. He was originally prepared to give the penalty to the opponent.

But there was no way out. The head coach personally made the decision, so he had to give up.

Standing at the penalty spot, Lin Feng took a deep breath.

Although I have taken many penalties, this is the first time I have been under such great pressure.

Sure enough, the nature and importance of the competition are different, and the pressure they bring is also completely different.

No wonder Baggio missed a penalty in the World Cup final. The pressure the opponent felt at that time must have been much greater than he was feeling now. It was normal for him to perform poorly under such pressure.

Lin Feng tried hard to clear his mind of distracting thoughts and not think about things like he could win the championship by scoring this goal.

Instead, it was like a normal shooting training, running up, aiming, and shooting.

The football passed the goalkeeper's fingers and went into the net, just as he did in his daily training.

After a moment, the world became lively again.

It was even a little too lively, with huge cheers sweeping over like a tide, piercing his eardrums. (End of this chapter)
