Chapter 287 Francisco is not a bad guy (Please subscribe)
Milan fans and Sampdoria fans behaved completely differently.

However, the goals were scored by the players they trusted most.

Some fans chose to support the new team.

However, some people still insist on supporting Sampdoria.

This split has further complicated the situation in Genoa.

Sampdoria, lacking in history, and Genoa, which has never shown any improvement, are both not very good teams, forming a three-way rivalry with the newly emerging Sampdoria and D'Arenes.

The combined history of Sampdoria's two clubs is less than half the length of Genoa's history, which makes the situation quite interesting.

The opponents usually taunt you from all three sides.

If you can't compete in terms of academic performance, you can only rely on your historical and cultural heritage.

The key is that having a strong foundation but no championship is the same as having nothing at all. Some people just don't understand this principle.

Despite its short history, Sampdoria has won quite a few European titles.

Although Sampdoria and Renésé are currently all lower-level champions, it's a miracle that they get promoted every year.

However, with AC Milan in the picture, they can't pull off another miracle of a newly promoted team winning the championship.

Barry looked at Dean and said, "Next time you should talk to Dejan; you're quicker to react."

Dean was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time.

He's dark-skinned and tough; you can say he's physically strong and flexible, and he'll accept that.

You fucking say you reacted quickly, are you sure you weren't just being sarcastic?

Sampdoria and Ludwig have a deep connection, and these later players are also somewhat aware of Ludwig's abilities.

Dean didn't want to closely guard Lu Deyang.

He's Black, not brainless.

You just got tricked by Lu Deyang. He scored a goal, and then he turned around and asked me to go?
Dean was highly suspicious that Baleri's suggestion was ill-intentioned on his mother's part.

The two discussed it for a long time without reaching a conclusion, and their teammates urged them to go forward and continue the kickoff.

Montella kicks off and passes the ball back to Karembeu.

Karembeu passed the ball to Veron.

Although Ikpino played as an attacking midfielder today, Sampdoria's playmaker was clearly Veron. This attacking midfielder tended to use his running to stretch Milan's defensive midfielders and create opportunities for his teammates.

Veron advanced the ball very quickly.

The entire Sampdoria team was charging forward with him.

Seeing this, Redondo rushed forward, as he had a lot of experience dealing with this fellow countryman.

Veron feigned a pass but instead passed the ball to the other side.

Redondo's two quick changes of target still resulted in him missing his target.

Legler received the ball on the left wing and went straight down the wing, with Coco running alongside him.

The young full-back was very fast, and the Frenchman couldn't get rid of him for a while.

As the baseline drew closer, Legler had no choice but to make a sudden stop and cut inside. Coco anticipated this and followed up with a turn and a shot.

However, he couldn't reach it this time, and Legler quickly lobbed the ball into the penalty area.

That ball was set too high, making things too difficult for Montella.

Buffon rushed to the edge of the six-yard box and easily took the ball off Montella's head.

Youngster Buffon's entire arm is almost above Montella's shoulder; that's the difference between the two.

1米72和1米91争顶的时候，1米91还可以用手，这根本不是公平的对决。

Buffon reacted quickly after receiving the ball, taking a step and throwing it out forcefully.

He wasn't originally a fan of fast breaks, but Lu Deyang's counter-attack speed and quality made Buffon pay great attention to his reaction speed after successfully getting the ball.

Karenbu remained close to Lu Deyang.

Seeing the ball flying towards him, he leaped forward, throwing off all his weight, and headed the ball out of bounds in front of Lu Deyang.

"Kareem disrupted AC Milan's attack. He performed very well this time. When playing against AC Milan, if you let Milan launch counter-attacks, then you will concede a goal very quickly."

"Montella looked isolated in the penalty area today, and Sampdoria's 4-5-1 formation didn't seem to offer him much help."

These days, the mainstream formation is 4-4-2, and it's been like this since the youth teams.

There isn't a simple player who can play as a lone striker.

Even Van Basten wouldn't dare say that his lone striker played very well, after all, talent is one aspect, experience is another, and whether at the club or the national team, he always had another striker by his side.

The concept of an all-around striker is somewhat absurd at this point.

The requirements for a striker are too high.

Montella is a sharpshooter with good speed.

However, he struggles to provide a focal point for the team.

Eriksson put his best striker in the starting lineup, but made Montella perform a role he wasn't good at.

This resulted in Sampdoria playing well, but failing to pose a threat near the penalty area.

Sacchi, standing on the sidelines with his arms crossed, said with a smile: "The Swedes' tactics are too idealistic. They clearly have a good lineup, but they insist on playing the way they think they can counter us. Now we can't defend and we can't launch any attacks."

"Indeed it is."

Tardelli nodded.

A perfectly good little plane was used as a reconnaissance aircraft.

Montella struggled today, so it's no wonder Sacchi was in a good mood.

Sampdoria has ruined their most dangerous point; if they continue like this, it will be hard for them not to win.

Although Sampdoria's offensive has been very fierce during this period, Sacchi is not worried at all.

In the 21st minute, Sampdoria launched another attack. Veron tried to play a through ball in the attacking third but couldn't find an opening, so he simply cut inside with his right foot and moved to the left wing.

This was mainly to avoid Maldini.

Paolo Maldini's tackling precision impressed him greatly.

Coco tried to steal the ball from Veron, but Veron easily tricked Coco out of his balance with a flick and a reverse dunk.

Costacurta made a timely defensive move, forcing Veron to dribble back.

When he reached the top corner of the penalty area, Totti, who was tracking back, went up to challenge him with his body, bracing Veron with his arm and extending his leg twice in succession, the second kick hitting Veron's foot.

beep—

At that moment, the referee blew his whistle.

Upon seeing the yellow card, Totti went up to defend himself, somewhat agitated, saying, "I didn't do it on purpose. He deliberately stretched his foot out in front of me, which is why this happened."

"So you still managed to kick their foot, right?"

The referee looked at Totti and said.

"Damn it..." Totti cursed instinctively.

The referee glared at him and immediately pulled out the red card and held it high.

"Mr. Referee!"

“He didn’t do it on purpose, sir…”

"Francisco was just complaining..."

Milan players rushed up to explain, but the referee was clearly determined to target Totti.

This time, Totti didn't argue; he just spat and walked away with his head down.

Lu Deyang ran up to Totti, put his arm around his shoulder, and said, "Go back and sit down for a bit, then just wait to win."

"Deyang..."

The little prince's voice trembled slightly as he expressed his grievances.

After all, he has only just come of age.

"Don't worry, the coach and I will explain it to you after the game."

Lu Deyang chuckled and joked, "After all, Francisco Totti isn't a bad person."

Totti laughed when he heard this.

Lu Deyang patted him on the shoulder and told him to go back and rest.

Sacchi forced a smile and waved for Totti to return to the locker room.

The little prince walked into the passageway.

Tardelli looked at Saki, and Saki's performance was indeed very poor.

This assistant coach is not going to make his presence felt.

"Sampdoria has been awarded a free kick in a good position. Mihajlovic is now ready to take it. This is a good chance; if he scores, they can equalize."

"Run-up...shoot! Buffon! Buffon dives to his side and catches the opponent's free kick. Buffon throws the ball in again to launch a quick counter-attack."

Buffon threw the ball a little too hard this time, slamming it into the box just outside the penalty area.

Redondo reacted quickly, hooking the ball with his foot and passing it across to Albertini without even turning around.

Albertini looked up and saw that Lu Deyang was not yet in position, so he turned and passed the ball to the right wing.

The ball crossed the halfway line and headed straight for the right flank of the attacking third. Baggio was in the attacking third, and as soon as he received the ball, he attracted several players who were tracking back to defend. However, Baggio's dribbling was very steady, just like his ball control.

Despite being chased by two opponents, Baggio still maintained his lead with the ball. As he approached the penalty area, he unleashed a curling cross while on the move.

The ball flew in an exaggerated arc straight towards the edge of the penalty area.

Baleri, who was nearby, thought he was looking for Basten, but when he turned around, he found that the left flank was empty and Lu Deyang had already rushed up.

The full-back had no time to do anything.

click -

Lu Deyang rushed to the edge of the penalty area, took a step forward, and with a powerful kick of his right foot, strode into the penalty area with his left foot.

Before the left foot lands, the right foot follows with the power of the waist and abdomen, a movement that looks very powerful.

boom--

After seeing Lu Deyang strike the ball with his right foot, Baleri exclaimed in amazement, "Besides the power, his timing was also very precise."

A cloud-patterned crown adorned with jade, a purple robe, and the celestial register faintly revealing his title.

The ball flew out like a cannonball. Although Ferron made a quick dive to the side, the ball was too fast. Before his hand could reach the goal, the ball nestled into the net, just past the left post.

Almost instantly, San Siro seemed to press the mute button.

All that remained was the sound of Milan players cheering and celebrating as they rushed to the sidelines with Lu Deyang.

"Goal!!!!"

"Dejan Goal!!!"

"Dejan scored a signature goal. This time he sprinted more than 70 meters from the backfield and still just missed the target. Baggio had already passed the ball, and Dejan could only use a triple jump to quickly enter the penalty area, and even before his left foot landed, he volleyed the ball."

"In terms of difficulty, this shot is already a 9.8, but since the ball went in, I can only give it a 10, if 10 is the maximum. Dejan's strength is not that he can use unconventional moves, but that no matter what move or method he uses to shoot, he will pose a threat to the goal, and that is the most important thing."

"After Totti left the field, Dejan immediately showed his fangs. Perhaps the presence of young admirers on the field actually limited Dejan, making him more inclined to pass the ball to Totti and let Totti perform."

"I'm not saying Totti is bad, but he's still 20 Riveras behind Dejan!!!"

Totti, who was watching the game from the locker room, didn't react much.

Rivera, who was watching the game at a bar today but couldn't be there in person, couldn't help but smile wryly.

Why are you making fun of him?

It's certain that there's a gap between him and Lu Deyang, but how much is there between them in terms of units of measurement?

He would ask Crudelli about it next time they met.

……

"Deyang!"

"Deyang!"

"Deyang!"

The San Siro stadium erupted in cheers.

True heroes are revealed in times of crisis.

When someone was found to be red, Lu Deyang immediately stepped forward, extinguishing their worries for less than five minutes.

The Rossoneri are so excited.

Recalling the summer when the team announced the signing of Lu Deyang, they envisioned a bright future.

But looking at them now, it's clear that their imagination is somewhat lacking.

Even the wildest ideas can't fathom just how outstanding Milan's new king truly is.

"That was a good pass."

Lu Deyang punched Baggio in the arm and said.

"Besides you, I guess only that guy could have received it," Baggio said, shaking his head.

Lu Deyang laughed along.

Baggio was referring to Mancini.

He always says he doesn't care about Mancini, but in reality he knows him very well.

Mancini's ability to volley is truly outrageous.

Neither of the Robertos was a pushover.

Eriksson stood on the sidelines, looking rather grim.

He didn't expect Lu Deyang to score so quickly.

Normally, having a player sent off has a significant impact on morale.

He was hoping Sampdoria would take advantage of this time to overtake them, but unexpectedly, his opponent extended their lead.

At this point, he couldn't help but complain about Mantovani.

Why did you terminate your contract with Lu Deyang? You took two and a half years off and came back to the court.

That's a salary of just over 2000 million US dollars.

Thinking about it this way, he could understand what Mantovani was doing.

After all, that's a lot of money.

At this point, the Swedes could only lament their bad luck; Lu Deyang was injured before he returned to Sampdoria.

He has never even coached Lu Deyang in a single match.

Otherwise, there would still be some semblance of kinship.

It seems we can only adjust our tactics during halftime.

……

"Cheer up, everyone!"

Maldini clapped his hands and shouted, "We can't rely on Dejan for everything!"

Buffon leaned against the pillar, looking utterly bored.

He wanted to show off today.

Unexpectedly, Montella, who was riding high, suddenly went silent.

Some goalkeepers enjoy this situation, but Buffon prefers the thrill of a one-on-one situation, the mental and physical battle, and the satisfaction of saving the shot.

This mindset has enabled him to continuously improve.

However, the opponent's attack just couldn't produce any quality.

Sampdoria is ranked third.

This performance disappointed him somewhat.

After the restart, the situation remained largely the same. Buffon, standing in the penalty area, felt that if things continued like this, he might catch a cold, as Milan was still a bit chilly in February.

They could only move around in the restricted area on their own.

Legler received the ball on the left wing and broke through, but Baggio was beaten in an instant.

Sampdoria's attack today leaned more towards this side. It's obvious who's easier to bully between Maldini and Coco, not to mention Redondo is also on the left wing, while Albertini is the weaker defender on this side.

Upon seeing this, Redondo immediately left his position and moved to the right flank to provide defensive support.

The Frenchman with the ball feigned a breakthrough but instead passed it to the onrushing Marco Franceschetti. Franceschetti delivered a good pass, but his diagonal pass was easily bypassed by Icopino, who spread his legs to let the ball pass through. On the other side, Veron accelerated and went straight to the byline.

Maldini didn't expect the ball to come to him, and he was a step too slow when he went back to defend. In his haste, he stepped on his own shoelace and fell directly to Veron.

Maldini, both amused and exasperated, sat on the ground and looked at Lu Deyang's shoes in the distance.

Hidden shoelace design is absolutely necessary.

Sometimes, it's not that you can stop your shoelaces from coming undone just by tying them tightly.

The Milan vice-captain innocently spread his hands in front of the referee.

The referee didn't give a card this time, but he still awarded a free kick.

"It's up to you, Gigi."

Maldini said, "Leave it to me."

Buffon patted his chest and said.

“Your conversation sounds like a hamburger commercial,” Costacurta joked.

"Fuck off!"

Maldini laughed and cursed.

That advertisement couldn't stop the opponent's shot.

This is an official match. Putting aside the possibility of hamburgers being thrown down from the stands, Buffon can't be that unreliable as to ditch the ball to catch a hamburger.

Maldini is quite confident in Buffon's abilities.

Better than Rossi!

This is no longer within the scope of an ordinary goalkeeper.

If we say that Lu Deyang is followed by football legends like Maradona, then...

Buffon's potential should be at least below Yashin's, and no worse than Zoff's.

It's still Mihajlovic.

Buffon is quite confident against this opponent, having already saved one of their free kicks today.

Moreover, this position is on the flank of the penalty area, and the angle is very small.

Buffon thought for a moment and then chose the near post.

He felt that the location was rather dangerous.

The players from both sides took their positions, with only Redondo and Coco forming the wall.

beep—

As the whistle blew, Mihajlovic took a running start and flicked his left foot out.

Lu Deyang, also a left-footed player, immediately realized it was a long-range shot and Buffon's positioning was bad.

Sure enough, Buffon jumped but couldn't reach the ball, which flew into the goal from almost the corner of the far post.

Pretty!

Even as an opponent, Lu Deyang admitted that Mihajlovic's free kicks were quite impressive.

There are only so many free-kick masters in the world of football.

Hierro, another defender known for his free kicks, didn't have particularly attractive free kicks. The Real Madrid captain's free kicks lacked curve and variation, relying more on sheer power to create miracles.

Mihajlovic can not only hit free throws with curves, but he also has other ways to take free throws.

In this respect, I estimate that only David Beckham and Juninho Jr. are better than him, besides Lu Guo.

In this regard, Juninho Jr. always had an overwhelming advantage. His 15% goal-scoring rate is no joke; he averages a goal every six shots.

Mihajlovic's free-kick accuracy is quite high, over 91%.

Later, when he was at Lazio, he even averaged one goal every two kicks for a period of time.

If he were given more chances today, winning might be difficult.

Lu Deyang walked back and reminded him, "Don't give us any more set pieces. That defender is very good at free kicks."

Maldini rolled his eyes and said, "It's all because of your commercials. Every time Gigi and I discuss the next set piece, it feels like we're going to concede a goal."

"They really know how to make excuses."

Costacurta joked from the side.

"Idiot Billy, you just said it looks alike yourself."

Maldini cursed.

Lu Deyang shrugged and said, "Okay, I'll take responsibility. I'll keep the score two goals ahead until the end of the first half."

Maldini immediately shut up after hearing this.

Because Lu Deyang keeps his word.

Baresi, who had been watching from the sidelines for a while, shook his head.

He seems to have lost touch with the world.

However, he knew very well that with these young players around, he didn't need to worry about the team's situation after he retired.

Perhaps even a younger guard would be better.

As an old man, he was only holding on by sheer willpower; even a double captain can't resist the ravages of time.

Perfect timing, I'll retire when this season ends.

Perhaps they can even carry the glory of winning the championship.

Looking at it this way, there's nothing to regret.

Lu Deyang returned to the frontcourt, and Van Basten chuckled, saying, "You're busier than the captain."

"Stop laughing, watch my expression later."

Lu Deyang said.

As soon as he said that, he suddenly realized what Baggio should wear when he appeared at the entrance of Monica's Hamburger.

Flying Bat Ke Zhen'e!
That blind guy was bad at the game and loved to provoke, but he wasn't that annoying.

Calling him a great hero is no exaggeration.

He'll really step up if something happens, regardless of whether he can win or not.

It just so happens that Auntie and Yang Guo are re-broadcast every summer vacation, so seeing this look will definitely have a good reaction from teenagers in China.

Sometimes Lu Deyang really thinks he's a genius.

After the restart, Van Basten passed the ball to Lu Deyang, who didn't rush and pulled back with his right foot.

He positioned himself in the defensive midfield position and worked with Redondo to organize the offense.

This is not a simple addition; with the addition of Lu Deyang, Milan's control of the backfield has more than doubled, compared to the original two players, Redondo and Albertini.

Karembeu and his men rushed up and noticed that the Milan players were controlling the ball more steadily than before.

The key is that I'm not in a hurry at all.

That confidence hits you right in the face.

One or two players pressing Milan can't put much pressure on them.

Veron and Marco Francescatti also rushed up.

Including Montella, Sampdoria committed six players to pressing.

In order to avoid becoming disconnected from the midfield and forward lines, their defensive line must also push forward.

Van Basten spotted the opportunity immediately, but he didn't act on it.

Any movement in the middle is too sensitive; Sampdoria's defenders will spot it immediately.

The Dutch striker instead opted to move to the wing, specifically the left flank.

Albertini passed the ball to Redondo again, and Karembeu pounced on him.

Redondo passed the ball forward, and Lu Deyang indeed started his run and rushed to the center line to receive it.

David Barry is still waiting for Lu Deyang there.

As Lu Deyang was running, he passed the ball forward. Van Basten received the ball, turned and took a step forward. He then controlled the ball with the outside of his foot and turned to the side, leaving the chasing player, Sares, to run in vain.

Lu Deyang, making a run down the middle, didn't even need to reach out; Van Basten passed the ball to him, completing a one-two.

Once again, Lu Deyang was left with only Mihajlovic as a defender in front of him.

All 7+ spectators were focused on Sampdoria's penalty area.

When Lu Deyang reached the penalty area, Mihajlovic had already switched from a half-turn to a normal run. Lu Deyang was running too fast, so he had to quickly move up and put pressure on Lu Deyang with his body.

click -

Lu Deyang's right shoulder slumped.

Miha, who was about to approach, immediately stopped.

But the next second, he realized that Lu Deyang hadn't actually gone inside; it was a feint with his shoulder.

cheated!
It was too late by then; Lu Deyang, who was half a body length ahead, took a shot directly from the top corner of the penalty area.

boom--

A clean and decisive shot with the inside of his foot finding the far corner; Ferron, who rushed out to intercept, failed to stop the ball and once again became the backdrop for the play.

After scoring, Lu Deyang ran back with a smile, high-fived Van Basten, and then pointed a finger at Maldini from afar.

Maldini laughed and cursed, "That show-off bastard..."
