Chapter 191
The fifteen minutes of halftime passed quickly.
When the players of both teams returned to the field one after another...
In the stands, more than 60,000 fans immediately saw that Manchester United still did not make any substitutions, and even the lineup positions were exactly the same as in the first half, and they immediately booed.
"What on earth does Ferguson want to do?"
Huang Jianxiang was puzzled when he saw this scene. When he returned to the commentary, his tone was obviously angry:
"In the first 45 minutes, the opponent was suppressing the whole game, why are you still unwilling to make adjustments?"
"Even countless fans and spectators can see that this lineup is not working. If we continue to stick to this old-fashioned way, what is the point except losing more balls and losing more ugly?"
"Does the team really want to score a goal and keep the hope of advancing, all relying on the opponent's mistakes or miracles?"
Beckham shook his head helplessly at this time: "Although Sir Alex is a legendary coach worthy of respect and a teacher I am very grateful to, I have to say..."
"Sometimes his style is too rigid and strict."
"If the things we have determined, including the tactical play on the court, do not achieve the expected results, even if they are hit Even if the head is broken and bloody, I will not give up. "
"Of course, it is because of Sir Alex Ferguson's persistence..."
"Manchester United can be reborn. Since the Premier League reform in 1992, it has won ten league titles and three Champions League trophies and has become one of the most successful clubs in the world. So, there are gains and losses."
After listening, Van Basten couldn't help but smile: "So, Manchester United is now giving up the victory of the game in order to let the players better run-in tactics and play?"
"If so... Excuse me, Coach Ferguson is either a living bodhisattva who loves charity or a crazy gambler."
"This is the Champions League knockout match that hundreds of millions of fans around the world are closely watching!"
"If it fails, even if the club executives, players, and even fans don't voice their dismissal, he himself may not be able to bear the torture and take the initiative to resign!"
When everyone was discussing Ferguson's arrangements.
The second half of the game was in the 65th minute.
During this period, AC Milan launched several threatening attacks on Manchester United's goal.
If it weren't for the bad luck, and the active defense of Sufan and Park Ji-sung, Ronaldinho, Ibrahimovic and Pirlo would have scored another goal.
In the 66th minute, Valencia kicked Pirlo's through ball out of the sideline with a clean shovel shot at the top of the arc in the center circle.
The linesman saw this and immediately raised the flag.
At this moment, the referee suddenly "beeped" and stopped the game.
Hearing this, the linesman looked at the referee in confusion, indicating that there was no foul in this ball.
Then, he soon learned that it turned out that a team had made a substitution adjustment.
"Oh? We can see that AC Milan, playing at home, took the lead in making personnel adjustments when they were two goals ahead."
Huang Jianxiang frowned slightly when he said this:
"Head coach Allegri chose to replace Pato, who performed well but whose physical fitness declined too quickly."
"The replacement is... Inzaghi, who is also from the Italian national team and serves as the main striker!"
"This is a positional substitution adjustment. It is obvious that the players on the field are sending a signal to continue to strengthen the offense."
After saying this, he couldn't help but take a breath: "They clearly want to take advantage of the victory and win another game to completely end the suspense of the game, but..."
"As the head coach of Manchester United, why can Sir Alex Ferguson still sit calmly in the coaching seat, as if chewing gum as if it has nothing to do with him?"
"Is he completely giving up the Champions League and focusing on the competition for the league championship, or is he planning to use his trump card in the final decisive stage of the game?"
As he was talking, the situation on the field changed again.
As soon as Inzaghi came on the field, he suddenly appeared silently about six meters away from Manchester United's penalty area.
Then, he used the outside of his right foot to touch the out-of-bounds throw of his old teammate Pirlo with a "pop", and then stepped on it, and immediately stopped the ball with seemingly ease!
"Bang..."
Just as Inzaghi wanted to break through with the ball, he bumped into Evans who was rushing towards him, and then fell to the ground without thinking.
"Beep!"
The referee whistled immediately, and then gave Evans a verbal warning and awarded AC Milan a set-piece opportunity.
"The position of this set-piece... is very subtle."
Cafu smiled and made his own analysis:
"The distance from the inside of the goal post is very small."About 24 meters, just within Pirlo's range. "
"Considering that Pirlo tried to shoot directly at 27 meters and 26 meters in the previous games, respectively."
"Although he didn't score, he only slightly exceeded the crossbar, which shows that the quality of his set-pieces is very high."
"And this time, it is obviously one step closer to the inside of the goal post, and Inzaghi's long shot should be more likely to score."
Shevchenko smiled and agreed after hearing this: "Indeed!"
"When I played for AC Milan, Pirlo was always the main shooter of long-distance set-pieces."
"What's admirable is that he can score a goal almost every six long shots!"
"Such a terrifying success rate, even if it has now been surpassed by Argentine star Leo Messi, it was definitely the world's best at the time!"
"The days in the red and black group in the past always make people nostalgic. ”
After saying that, he sighed lightly, and then his eyes were full of hope: "Now I am looking forward to seeing my old teammate's artistic long-range shot again! !”
Before he finished speaking, Van Basten immediately expressed his different opinion meaningfully:
"I think that when that man is on the court, even if Pirlo still can't directly kick a long shot..."
"Milan also has a chance to use this set-piece to score indirectly! !”
Before everyone can figure out what Van Basten meant by these words, the referee immediately "beeped", resumed the game, and signaled Pirlo to touch the ball.
"Huh! "
At this moment, Pirlo stood in front of the penalty spot and exhaled.
Then, he looked at the ball in front of him with a serious expression, and then looked at the "human wall" in front of him, as well as the position of his teammates. His eyes suddenly lit up and he couldn't hide his smile.
"Boom..."
After a run-up, Pirlo turned sideways, bent his knees, and while lowering his body weight, he poured all his strength into his right thigh.
Finally...
Quick kick, swing, and powerful volley!!
At this moment!
The football seemed to have turned into a cannonball. Before the five defensive players who formed the "human wall" had time to react, they had already flown over their heads!
Before anyone could blink, the ball drew an arc in the air and passed between the two central defenders of Manchester United, and then...
Under the friction between the ball's continued high-speed rotation and the air, it fell a little and hit the net less than one centimeter below the crossbar!!!
