If you are a brother, come and play football

Chapter 159 The Birth of a Core (Please Subscribe)

In an instant, a round sun soared into the sky, chasing away the stars and the waning moon.

The arc was too exaggerated; it was an S-shaped free kick.

This completely silenced San Siro.

The stadium, which had more than 60,000 fans in attendance, was surprisingly quiet.

"Deyang!!!"

"A signature Dejan Goal!"

“We all know Dejan’s free-kick accuracy is incredible. Today, Dejan once again showed the world with a true S-shaped free kick that in the realm of free kicks, he can take any shot we think is impossible, if he wants to. I even suspect that Dejan plays football specifically to challenge my imagination.”

Rossi said with a smile, "It's been two and a half seasons, and Dejan can still surprise us."

"If this creativity were channeled into the scientific field, it might achieve even greater success. I think infinite renewable energy might be a good option, perhaps for developing manned spacecraft."

“Paul, what you invent depends on the technology and inspiration available at the time; it’s not something you can just decide to do.”

Valyare reminded him.

"Nothing is impossible for Dejan."

Galliani nodded vigorously in front of the television.

Yes, nothing is impossible.

As long as Lu Deyang doesn't get injured and starts again in the next game, he'll be set for life.

Galliani felt that if things continued this way, it would be difficult to make money again.

Once or twice is fine; even if William Hill's employees are all fools and don't notice him, the scale is too big for those companies to handle.

Lu Deyang felt it after helping the team to a comeback.

There's definitely a reason why the core players are delayed.

Players like Pirlo and Alonso, who have long passing ability, can get the ball into the opponent's territory in no time, without having to organize play in the opponent's half.

The opponent's aggressive pressing makes it easier to exploit their weaknesses.

No wonder Dahuang wanted Arnold.

Somalia can run, but having an extra dealer definitely makes a big difference.

……

"That ball was fucking amazing..."

Rossi only managed to say this after retrieving the ball.

The penalty was taken from a position more than two meters to the right of the right post. No normal person would think that the right foot kicked the left side, but that's exactly what happened.

After realizing that Lu Deyang was taking the penalty with his right foot, he wondered whether to dive to the right or the middle.

Once you see the ball curve, there's no time to adjust your power, and you can only watch as the ball flies into the corner of the goal.

"It's not your problem."

Baresi comforted him, saying, "Dejan's free kicks are too difficult to predict. Buffon mentioned this to us when he came before."

The Buffon he was referring to was Lorenzo Buffon, the great-uncle of young player Gianluigi and a legend at AC Milan.

"Yes."

Rossi slammed the ball to the ground, then grabbed it again and complained, "There's no way to save this kind of ball. You guys better not give him a free kick."

"try your best."

Baresi nodded and said.

He also sensed the difficulty Lu Deyang was facing today.

When Lu Deyang breaks through on his own, they are less likely to commit fouls.

Many times, you can't even touch the clothes.

That guy's reaction speed was too fast; he was always one step ahead of everyone else when he made a move.

However, Lu Deyang made accurate long passes to his teammates from the backfield, which easily led to fouls.

Their passes are so accurate that even top defenders are a step behind in getting going, and the consequence of that is that they can only chase after the opponent.

There are only a few ways to disrupt an attack from behind.

"Paul, you go and suppress Dejan from the high post later."

Baresi said.

"You might as well let me do a hat trick."

Ma Paul said irritably, "If I can stop Dejan, I'll be going to collect the Ballon d'Or next month."

"Just don't let him kick so comfortably."

Baresi said again.

no way.

Someone has to restrain Lu Deyang.

But most people can't do that.

Evani was basically just there to deliver food.

Even if a talented defender like Paolo Maldini can't steal the ball, he can definitely slow down Lu Deyang's passing timing.

If the pass is even a step slower, the outcome will be completely different.

After the restart, Baresi signaled to Maldini to move forward.

Anyway, Lu Deyang didn't push forward much today, and the defensive line didn't have that much of a task.

Not long after, Maldini rushed to the midfield line; you'd think he was a striker.

Rijkaard received the ball and was pressed by Redondo, which led him to pass the ball to Maldini.

Maldini attempted to dribble with his right foot.

Lu Deyang simply stuck it on.

[Beckham] In attack, long passes are more important than dribbling, but that doesn't mean he can't dribble.

His offense was so outstanding that many people overlooked his defense.

Running 13,000 meters in a match is nothing special, but there's also the classic scene of him single-handedly intercepting Ronaldinho.

As soon as Maldini lifted his foot, Lu Deyang knew he was preparing to force his way through.

You absolutely must not let it start at this time.

Maldini tried to feint and get past Lu Deyang, but he couldn't fool him at all.

Redondo came over to help defend immediately.

Maldini didn't even have a chance to pass the ball back.

Click—Maldini tried to kick the ball to Lu Deyang's shin to get a throw-in, but Lu Deyang stepped back and flicked the ball up, controlling it at close range.

He turned and ran with the ball.

People are numb!
Ma Paul never expected anyone to be able to control a shot from close range.

However, he felt that luck played a larger role.

Even if Lu Deyang reacted quickly, it would be too late at this point. He must have guessed Lu Deyang's thoughts and made preparations in advance.

Lu Deyang had only taken two steps after receiving the ball when he turned and delivered another long diagonal pass.

boom--

The ball traveled from the right flank of the backfield straight to the left flank of the frontfield.

The ball was once again accurately delivered to Mancini, and Tassotti was half a body length behind in his pursuit.

A somewhat agitated Tassotti slid in and tackled the ball and player to the ground.

"Well done, buddy!"

Rossi gave a sarcastic thumbs-up.

no way.

This is another free kick, and it's hard for him to control his emotions.

The referee went up and showed a yellow card, and Tassotti gestured apologetically to Rossi.

Shhh!
Shhh!
Shhh!
San Siro rarely treated Lu Deyang this way.

But today is different.

That free kick just now completely turned the worldview of the Rossoneri into reality.

They were genuinely afraid that Lu Deyang would treat Milan like Real Madrid.

Whether it's useful or not, keep quiet for now; it might influence Lu Deyang in case.

Lu Deyang stood behind the ball on its left side.

The foul occurred not far from the extension of the top corner of the penalty area, which is a relatively favorable position for the right foot.

beep—

As the whistle blew, Lu Deyang took a run-up and flicked the ball with his foot. The ball easily flew over the wall and headed straight for the left side of the goal, where Rossi jumped up and blocked it with both hands.

Rossi then scooped up the ball again, and while holding it, shouted, "I saved it!"

These few words contained both excitement and heartache.

Positive and negative emotions are intertwined.

The Milan players didn't urge him to serve and attack quickly, after all, they were also happy.

At that moment, Capello waved from the sidelines.

Maldini walked over and asked, "What's wrong, coach?"

Capello put his arm around Mabala's shoulder and instructed him, "You did a great job pressing Dejan up front. Try not to give him a chance to get the ball. The less he gets the ball, the less of a threat he poses to us."

Paul Ma: ...

You've discussed it with Baresi, haven't you?

But are you really not going to consider my thoughts?

"Coach, I can only try my best."

Maldini said, forcing himself to speak.

Capello patted him on the shoulder and said, "I believe you can do it. Go ahead."

Maldini rolled his eyes at Capello with his back turned.

Don't assume that just because you're wearing a black wool coat you're the Godfather.

However, he also noticed that Lu Deyang used this kind of long pass to let his teammates attack, making it easier for him in the backcourt.

No wonder Baresi and Capello both put him on the field.

Otherwise, those attacking players alone won't be able to handle Lu Deyang, unless Gullit is moved to that lane.

Maldini rushed to Lu Deyang's side again.

"Paul, you really don't have any star airs at all."

Lu Deyang retorted, "Just come up when I tell you to."

"This is the coach's arrangement."

Ma Paul said with a smile, "It's not shameful to specifically defend against you. Even Inter Milan would assign Bergomi and Matthäus to target you."

“But you’re attacking, shouldn’t you get involved?” Lu Deyang said, pointing to the midfield.

Rijkaard is dribbling the ball.

"It's okay, as long as you're not there, it's no big deal if I don't go."

Paul Ma said with a smile.

If he could trade Lu Deyang, Capello would probably be laughing in his sleep.

The two were chatting on the right flank, while Rijkaard clearly had the advantage in the middle lane.

Redondo had already gone up, so Lu Deyang simply went over to cover Ancelotti.

Paolo Maldini remained by his side.

Paulo Ma grabbed Lu Deyang's arm with one hand, and suddenly he felt Lu Deyang start rushing towards Ancelotti. He immediately ran after him.

But the next second.

Lu Deyang twisted his ankle, turned and rushed to the left wing, sliding in to block the ball out of bounds before Gullit could receive it.

The away fans cheered.

Maldini, hands on his hips, exhales through his nostrils.

Damn it, I've been tricked! Dejan really loves to lie.

This made him feel very embarrassed.

This time, he simply stayed with Lu Deyang the whole time and didn't respond to teammates throwing the ball out of bounds.

Gullit threw the ball out, and Rijkaard backheeled it to Ancelotti.

Ancelotti attempted another long-range shot, but Redondo blocked it with his outstretched leg, the ball bouncing high off Redondo's shin.

Lu Deyang turned around to start the engine, but Maldini grabbed his wrist.

Lu Deyang glared at him, annoyed.

This guy has no shame.

He's clearly a top-class full-back, yet he's using this kind of defensive method.

Without Lu Deyang, Parry's through ball after dribbling past the center circle was easily intercepted by Baresi.

As a midfielder who usually clears away dirty plays, it's a bit much to ask him to go up and make an attacking run.

"Defense!"

Lu Deyang, wearing an armband, reached out and called out.

Rijkaard may have a foul mouth, but his dribbling skills are truly exceptional.

In his early matches, he was more like a winger than a winger, often venturing out to the flanks.

Parry and Dorsena charged forward at the same time.

Rijkaard still chose to pass the ball, and Ancelotti immediately tried to pass it to Gullit, but this time Redondo saw through his intention and blocked it with his leg.

Hey!
Maldini turned around and found that Lu Deyang was gone.

Lu Deyang, who had already rushed to the left flank of the attacking third, received a pass from Redondo, turned around, and chipped the ball out with his foot.

The ball headed straight for the right side of the penalty area.

Vialli surprisingly outjumped Baresi to head the ball away, and Rossi seized the opportunity to dive and poke the ball out of bounds.

"Another set piece; Sampdoria's attack is even more ferocious today."

"Yes, because Dejan frequently creates opportunities for his teammates with long passes, AC Milan has to defend against Dejan while also defending against other Sampdoria players."

"Dejan took a direct shot... it was a little off, but Dejan still has a lot of ideas."

Ferguson was chewing gum in the stands.

I feel like I have a lot more ideas in my head.

Lu Deyang's playing style gave him more inspiration.

He had previously wanted to wait for Beckham to be promoted to the first team so that he and Giggs could fly together on the wings.

But now it seems that it wouldn't be a bad idea to let Beckham try playing as a defensive midfielder in the youth team. Paul Ince could be his bodyguard, and he could specialize in delivering long passes to his teammates.

It's definitely easier to distribute cards to teammates in the middle lane than in the right lane.

This style of play, where the backfield is responsible for distributing the ball, made the Scottish coach keenly aware that this might be another football revolution.

The score remained unchanged for a long time.

But both teams played with great passion.

AC Milan's Dutchmen relied on their physicality to charge around the field, while Sampdoria's Lu Deyang received the ball and immediately passed it to the front.

Both teams demonstrated to the world what top-level individual ability truly means.

Low-end equipment coordination VS air strike.

The main reason was that both teams' defenses were very solid today, so the score didn't change again.

With Van Basten being fouled in the attacking third, the referee immediately blew the whistle for halftime.

Lu Deyang bent down and helped Basten up, asking, "Are you alright?"

"Of course I'm fine. Do I look like I'm in trouble?"

Van Basten said with a smile, "Has your long pass always been this good?"

After watching Sampdoria's attack today, it's hard not to wonder what would happen if Lu Deyang passed the ball to him like that.

Mancini and Vialli were still a little short.

If it were him, he could have scored at least two more goals.

"You guys are too strong, so I don't dare to dribble the ball upfield."

Lu Deyang joked.

Van Basten smiled and shook his head.

Just listen to these kinds of things; anyone who believes them is a fool.

However, Lu Deyang's performance today has made him even more excited for the Serie A All-Star exhibition match.

Occasionally, he would wonder if he could achieve a breakthrough in major tournaments if he weren't with the Dutch national team.

The Netherlands team's strength is not in question.

But the constant infighting was also a major headache for Basten.

While other teams are fiercely competing and united in their efforts, the Dutch locker room is just a constant source of arguments.

Normal players will feel tired.

Lu Deyang walked to the sidelines, and Boskov quickly handed him a towel, saying, "I've been keeping an eye on that Capello. He doesn't seem to be using any witchcraft."

"You can't take what reporters say seriously."

Lu Deyang said with a smile, "Mr. Capello is an excellent coach. He might reach your level in 20 years."

Boskov nodded with a smile.

But deep down, I didn't really believe it.

That guy dresses like he's in an opera; how could he be a good coach?
These days, if a coach wears a suit, it's considered very prestigious. It's extremely rare to see a coach like Capello wearing a wool coat with a scarf and a sharp suit underneath.

Away game locker room.

"They acted like they were going to kill someone today."

"Village Joward complained."

"It's normal for them to be motivated to play against us; at least they didn't commit any deliberate fouls," Mannini said with a smile. Verjoward said this mainly because the AC Milan players played with great intensity.

Every time there's a corner kick, the Dutch players make some pretty big moves.

"There's nothing we can do about it; everyone outside wants to defeat us now," Mancini said with a hint of smugness.

Vialli immediately reminded them: "With Dejan on the team, we've lost quite a few games without him."

“That’s because we can play to our full potential with Dejan. Fernando, Dejan, and I are a team. You can’t stop Lewis from using his left foot when you’re playing against him, can you?” Mancini said irritably.

"Wait, how come the three of you are in a group?"

Vialli asked, his eyes wide.

"Your skills are too weak, you'll only drag us down."

Mancini retorted, "A striker who can't even control the ball properly doesn't deserve to be grouped with us."

Vialli: ...

His technique is indeed a bit inferior to Mancini's.

But it's not like he can't even stop the ball properly.

"You bastard, you just want to hang out with Dejan and make the fans think you're one of the Genoa Three Musketeers," Vialli said directly.

He understood Mancini's thoughts very well.

"Nonsense, we're a team. I scored the first goal today, and I won the second free kick," Mancini said, sticking out his neck.

The two started arguing again.

Redondo rubbed his shoulder and said, "That Dutch bastard is very tough. He deliberately bumped into me when I wasn't paying attention."

"Be careful, Rijkaard is not a easy opponent."

Lu Deyang said.

Redon nodded and picked up a banana to replenish his energy.

There was widespread complaining about the Milan players in the locker room.

Even though they haven't won recently, every match against Milan is quite tough.

After a 15-minute break, the entire Sampdoria team emerged from the locker room again.

Just then, the AC Milan players also came out.

Lu Deyang nodded to Basten.

Following behind the players, Capello noticed Lu Deyang and resolved to learn Chinese.

You stand on the bridge and look at the scenery, and people who look at the scenery look at you upstairs.

While Capello was paying attention to Lu Deyang, Boskov was also paying attention to him.

He can't let Capello trick him this time when he exits the tunnel.

Boskov deliberately retreated to the locker room, a gesture that made Capello smile as he followed the player out of the tunnel.

When the game restarted, Mancini immediately passed the ball back, only to find that it had been given to Dossena.

Even if he doesn't say anything, the expression on his face says it all.

Lu Deyang is usually here.

Dossena didn't seem to be dribbling, and instead turned and passed the ball to the right wing.

Lu Deyang, who received the ball, immediately started his charge forward.

As soon as Ma Baolu rushed up, he followed Lu Deyang and ran back.

He has a unique skill: he is very good at tackling from behind.

Many times, he can make a clean and decisive tackle from the side.

However, Maldini quickly discovered that although Lu Deyang did not use his exaggerated speed when dribbling, he paid great attention to adjusting his footwork when dribbling.

Each time, I would use my left foot to protect the ball as I dribbled forward, just to prevent him from sliding in from the side.

If he were to make a sliding tackle, he would definitely kick Lu Deyang in the shin.

Maldini wouldn't have done this without deep-seated hatred.

A side shove at the calf could easily break the leg.

Besides, he and Lu Deyang had a very good relationship.

This left him somewhat frustrated, so he could only squeeze Lu Deyang with his body.

The two had already crossed the center line and rushed several meters past it, but still couldn't find an opportunity.

We can't let Lu Deyang continue dribbling the ball.

Maldini gritted his teeth and tackled Lu Deyang to the ground on the wing.

He then bent down and helped Lu Deyang up.

"Mr. Cesare Maldini must be mortified to see you defending like this," Lu Deyang joked.

“My dad will tell me to give you a good shovel, you bastard.”

Paul Ma said irritably.

They're both guards, but his dad's defense isn't as clean as his.

There weren't as many restrictions on defensive players back then as there are now.

Lu Deyang bent down and placed the ball properly.

Apart from Massaro and Evani forming a wall nearby, both teams' players were positioned near the penalty area.

They all knew that Lu Deyang would send the ball into the penalty area; the only question was whether to shoot directly or pass.

boom--

After taking a running start, Lu Deyang swung his right foot out again.

The ball continued its beautiful arc as it flew from the right wing towards the left side of the penalty area.

Mancini's timing was perfect; even with Costacurta watching him closely, he still leaped up and scored a volley first.

Duang——

The ball hit the crossbar and slammed into the white line, rolling out of the danger zone. Tassotti immediately kicked the ball towards Sampdoria's half.

Too dangerous!

Van Basten charged forward frantically.

The two men in the human wall then became the vanguard of the counterattack.

Lu Deyang turned around and chased after him with all his might.

Van Basten's position was too far forward this time.

Fortunately, he didn't have any teammates to support him, and the ball was delivered to the left, preventing him from facing the goal directly.

Lu Deyang chased straight back and soon caught up with Basten.

The two men chased after the ball.

Seeing this, Paryuka simply abandoned the door and left.

Danger!

Lu Deyang keenly sensed that Van Basten might get the ball before him.

With Pagliuca not in front of the door, opening the door was as easy for Basten as drinking water.

Realizing this, Lu Deyang simply stretched out his leg to block Van Basten from the side of the penalty area.

The Dutchman fell right into the penalty area.

Evani, who had run up, shouted excitedly, "Penalty! It's a penalty, isn't it?"

"It wasn't a penalty," Van Basten said, waving his hand. "It was outside the penalty area."

Evani stood there, somewhat dejected.

"Be careful, Dejan."

The referee came up and warned.

As he pulled Lu Deyang to his feet, Van Basten laughed and said, "It seems he doesn't want to be the first one to give you a card. Maybe the Italian referees are all waiting for you to get a card in the Champions League."

"I won't give them a chance."

Lu Deyang said with a smile.

He rarely commits fouls, and his fouls in the frontcourt almost never result in a card.

In other words, facing Van Basten's counterattack, they had no choice but to bring him down near the penalty area this time.

Gullit and Rijkaard stood together on the left side of the penalty area.

As soon as the referee blew the whistle, Gullit immediately made a triangular back pass.

Tactical free kick!
Ancelotti rushed forward and took a shot, but Redondo successfully blocked it.

However, the ball fell to the right side of the penalty area arc, where Ma Paulo, who had been following Lu Deyang, rushed forward and took a shot. He was lucky; despite so many players in the penalty area, none of them could block the ball, which went straight into the goal.

draw!

Maldini, who scored the goal, rushed towards the corner flag with his teammates to celebrate wildly.

God knows how much pressure he was under facing Lu Deyang and Sampdoria.

Lu Deyang also played on the right wing today.

"This ball wasn't your fault. Even if you hadn't fouled, he would have been one-on-one with the goalkeeper."

Wiljoward offered words of comfort.

"You actually think I'd care?"

Lu Deyang said with a smile, "Let them be happy for a while. We'll overtake them within five minutes."

Materazzi nodded in agreement.

Even if Lu Deyang said he was going to kick the Milan goalposts in a minute, Materazzi wouldn't question it.

Wiljoward shook his head with a self-deprecating laugh.

He always subconsciously regarded Lu Deyang as a young man.

But they forgot that Lu Deyang is not an ordinary young player.

Several AC Milan players overheard their conversation and couldn't help but roll their eyes.

Yet no one accused Lu Deyang of being arrogant.

On the way back, Ancelotti told Baresi about it.

Baresi immediately clapped his hands and shouted, "You all better watch out, especially Paul, you have to keep a close eye on Dejan."

Maldini nodded.

If they can maintain this score until the end, it would be a good result for them.

Sampdoria kicked off and passed the ball to Ludjan, and Maldini immediately rushed over.

Lu Deyang, however, swung his right hand and turned to pass the ball to the left wing.

Dossena's dribbling skills are lacking, but Lana's are.

Today, without Lu Deyang in front of him, he was on defense in the backcourt the whole time.

Having finally spotted Lu Deyang's signal, he immediately went up to receive the ball and charged towards Milan's half.

Gullit was a step too slow to intercept.

Lanna's speed is quite exaggerated.

However, his speed slowed down a bit when he got near the penalty area.

As a full-back, he is not very good at cutting inside.

He often needs his teammates to cooperate with him.

Mancini tried to receive the ball but was immediately marked by Costacurta, leaving Lanna with no choice but to turn and pass it to Dossena.

Dossena quickly passed the ball to the middle.

Just as Redondo was about to receive the ball, he noticed Lu Deyang rushing up and immediately dodged to let the ball pass.

Snapped--

Lu Deyang rushed behind the ball and flicked it with his right foot. Mancini, inside the penalty area, jumped up and headed the ball past Costacurta into the left side of the goal.

"Deyang!!!"

Mancini turned around, opened his arms, and rushed towards Lu Deyang.

Knowing that Lu Deyang would try to hide, he bent down and hugged Lu Deyang.

"I knew you could send it!"

Mancini shouted excitedly.

It's not easy to outjump Costacurta and Tassotti with a header.

The main reason was that Lu Deyang's pass was so good that he didn't need to compete for the header; he just flicked his head and sent the ball into the goal.

Lu Deyang turned to look at Wiljoward.

how about it?
It hasn't been five minutes yet.

The old man smiled and waved his hand.

Playing football with Lu Deyang is so worry-free.

Maldini stormed up and glared at Lu Deyang.

It is very difficult for a defender to stick to one person.

After all, you don't know what the other person is thinking.

In particular, Lu Deyang was always misleading him.

Although Maldini had his own judgment, if he hadn't gone to the right wing just now, Lu Deyang would have immediately turned the feint into a real one, letting Redondo pass the ball to the right wing.

If you try to predict the attacking player's next move, you're more likely to be fooled.

But when you're following an offensive player, you have to be half a beat behind each time.

There is no way around it.

The defending side is in a passive position.

Lu Deyang said with a smile, "Don't be so stingy, Paul. I'll treat you to a nightclub tonight."

"Forget it, I'm not interested in that kind of place. It's not a place for players."

Paul Ma said irritably.

Lu Deyang immediately raised his middle finger.

How dare this guy say such a thing?

He and Costacurta went to a nightclub a few days ago and it was just featured in the Gazzetta dello Sport.

Sometimes Lu Deyang wondered what they were doing at the nightclub if they didn't drink or pick up girls.

Are two grown men sitting on the sofa chatting while watching the dance floor?
This scene just feels a bit perverted.

Maldini noticed the smile on Lu Deyang's face and had a feeling that he wasn't up to any good.

After the restart, he faithfully fulfilled his duty once again, closely marking Lu Deyang.

Lu Deyang, on the contrary, was not in a hurry.

After taking the lead, he led Maldini around in his own half.

Having one more person can also reduce the space that the other party can exploit.

As Lu Deyang returned to defense, the game became deadlocked, and Capello couldn't help but look down at his watch.

He intends to strengthen his defense.

But a 3-2 score is still good; Sacchi has never lost by just one goal before, which makes him unsure whether he should make adjustments.

In the 80th minute, Lanna launched another attack down the left flank.

This time, Gullit immediately blocked his path, and Lanna quickly passed the ball across to Parry, who then kicked it forward.

Vialli received the ball and passed it back to Redondo.

Redondo tried to dribble forward but couldn't find an opportunity, so he passed the ball back to Parry.

Parry turned around and saw Lu Deyang, and immediately passed the ball to the right wing again.

Maldini, who had already returned to the penalty area, charged towards Lu Deyang again.

click -

Lu Deyang hooked his right foot and then immediately stepped forward with his left foot.

He dribbled right between Maldini and Ancelotti, with Costacurta still shifting his weight, and Lu Deyang flicked the ball to the right into the penalty area and turned to shoot.

boom--

Rossi, who was standing nearby, immediately noticed something was wrong. He tried to intercept the ball, but he couldn't stop it, and the ball flew directly into the net on the left side of the goal.

"Change people, change people!"

Boskov shouted immediately.

Chiesa resignedly took off his training jacket and walked to the sidelines.

Unexpectedly, this time Boskov actually pulled Lombardo towards the fourth official.

Chiesa stood there, stunned.

I was annoyed before because there was no warm-up time.

But now the coach isn't replacing him?

This left him somewhat confused about whether he should retaliate against Boskov.

Amidst applause from the San Siro, Lu Deyang walked off the field.

The match ended with a score of 4-2.

It was no easy feat for the team to withstand AC Milan's late comeback.

Lu Deyang felt that the rear-mounted core still played a significant role today.

However, playing for more than 80 minutes has taken a toll on their physical strength, and the next match against Manchester United will be another tough battle.

Italian media generally have a positive view of Capello's tactical arrangements for this match.

Everything is afraid of comparison.

Sacchi's previous matches were not only ugly, but also reduced the players' individual performance, yet he still couldn't win.

Capello's performance in this match was quite good.

Back home, Capello called Berlusconi and said, "You can reimburse any expenses the team incurs, right? Then find me a Chinese tutor..."
