I'm Kaka Kaka

Chapter 160 The Smiley Tiger

Sao Paulo dragged the game into a penalty shootout in the South American Copa Libertadores, relying on captain Cheney's brave performance to ascend to the championship throne, while Kaka rushed back to Italy non-stop to participate in the No.13 Serie A match between AC Milan and Roma.

Roma this season is a typical case of weak and strong and strong and weak. They lost to teams like Bologna and Modena, but they drew consecutively with the two league leaders Juventus and Inter Milan.

This game has attracted a lot of attention, in addition to being a strong duel, it is also because this is Inzaghi's 2 Serie A games. What's more, he has scored 99 Serie A goals.

One goal in two games is terrifying.

The San Siro stadium was full again, and the stands were full of fans wearing AC Milan's No. 9 jersey. A red and black banner with "100" written on it was held high above the top by all the fans and passed around.

Under the pressure of Berlusconi last year, Ancelotti had to arrange Shevchenko and Inzaghi to play together, but the effect was very painful for him. After creating a Christmas tree ingeniously this season, Sheva and Jiuye have less and less time to play together. Looking at the state and performance of the last few games, Sheva should actually be the starter.

There have been a lot of fan violence recently. Players in Naples and Messina were attacked and injured by fans. In order to express their protest, the Italian Players Association launched a call to propose that the kick-off time of all professional football matches in Italy, including the A, B, C15 and C[-], be postponed by [-] minutes this weekend.

All the teams responded positively, so the game was not only postponed for 15 minutes, but the captains of the two teams, Cafu and Maldini, read a statement protesting the violence in red vests before the start of the game.

"Totti did not enter the squad for the game. Montella and Cassano appeared at the forefront of the Roma team. The midfielders were De Las, Zebina, Samuel, Panucci, four defenders Cafu, Emerson, Lima and Bombaccini, and goalkeeper Antonio."

"AC Milan ranked 4321, goalkeeper Abbiati, Nesta returned from injury, partnered with Maldini as a central defender, on both sides were Simic and Karadze, midfielders Ambrosini, Pirlo, Seedorf, Rui Costa and Kaka, forward Inzaghi, it is worth mentioning that Redondo appeared on the bench."

With Collina's whistle, the game officially began.

The Roma team launched a fast break just after the kick-off. After passing back consecutively, Cafu took the ball and advanced on the right. Kaladze was not able to stop the Roma deputy. Cafu passed the ball to the center of the court more than five meters away from the center line.

Cassano rushed over and tiptoed lightly, the ball broke through Ambrosini and passed the ball to Montella.

Montella hit the football directly.

Nesta jumped up and blocked the ball with his back, but he was half a step too slow, and the football flew towards the goal, rubbing his jersey.

Abbiati made a world-class save, flicking the ball towards Maldini.

Maldini passed the ball to Karadze, who passed a long pass to Seedorf.

"Beautiful shots and saves. Roma almost broke the goal of AC Milan at the beginning of the game. Let's see how AC Milan will respond next."

Seedorf gave the ball to Ambrosini.

Ambrosini gave the ball directly to Pirlo. After receiving the ball, Pirlo wiped past Zebina, dribbled the ball across halftime, and passed it to Rui Costa who came up to respond.

Rui Costa kicked the ball to Kaka.

Kaka turned sideways and pretended to catch the ball, but suddenly raised his foot when Samuel was going up to grab the ball, let the ball pass through the sole of his foot, and then flicked the ball with the outside of his right foot to pass between Samuel's feet.

The second one came up was Panucci. He chose the timing very cleverly. It happened to be the moment when Kaka just broke through Samuel.

But he also fluttered in vain.

Kaka's movements were as fast as lightning, he touched the ball first, and poked his toes, which was also a crotch piercing.

These two consecutive dribbles were fleeting, and by the time people reacted, Kaka had come from the midfield to the front of the Roma team's penalty area, and then passed Emerson with a small change of direction.

There were three people in a row.

The whole audience stood up.

Following Emerson was Bombaccini. He and Lima were defending Inzaghi, but at this time he couldn't care about anything else, and rushed over and stretched his feet to intercept.

Kaka flicked his ankle, and Shenlong swung his tail.

The football darted past Bombaccini's feet.

Bombacchini stretched out his hand and barely touched the corner of Kaka's clothes.

At this time, Kafu, who had already returned to defense, also rushed over from the side. He will be the fifth defensive player Kaka encountered.

Kaka + Inzaghi VS Cafu + Lima + Antonio.

2 to 3.

Without any hesitation, Kaka directly sent a through ball to Inzaghi.

Inzaghi sprints with all his strength and pushes to the lower right corner.

Because of Lima's interference, the kick was forced, not fast and without an arc, almost no threat, and was easily confiscated by Antonio.

The alarm was lifted, and the Romans breathed a sigh of relief.

"Kaka sent a through pass to Inzaghi after passing four players in a row. To be honest, this is not a very good choice, because Inzaghi did not get rid of Lima's defense. We can understand Kaka's psychology of wanting to help Inzaghi score a goal. But just now, he only needs to pass Cafu to get a single-handed chance.

Ancelotti on the sidelines naturally also saw this. He was very angry at Kaka's immature choice, regardless of whether Kaka could hear him or not, he yelled at him several times from the sidelines.

Inzaghi gestured to Kaka with a thumbs up, indicating that he passed well.

Just 2 minutes into the opening, both sides completed a shot each, and everyone had a premonition that this would be an offensive battle.

That's how the game really works.

In the 3rd minute, Roma's pass in the middle was blocked. Ambrosini, who replaced Gattuso in the starting lineup, did play the role of Gato's lock, breaking Zebina's pass and handing it to Pirlo.

Pirlo made a long pass to Seedorf, and the Dutchman made a slight adjustment and shot angrily.

The football was blocked from the bottom line by Emerson.

Costa took a corner kick from the right, Seedorf made a pass with his left foot, Kaka turned his back to the goal, and knocked the heel of his left foot 8 meters in front of the goal, and the football went slightly wide of the left post.

"Kaka shot with his heel! Antonio didn't respond, but unfortunately the football was still slightly out of the goal frame. This shot was only one centimeter away from the goal. Kaka almost created another classic goal."

Three shots in 3 minutes, this is just the beginning.

In the 5th minute, Costa made a diagonal pass from the right, and Inzaghi shook his head near the penalty spot to attack the goal. Unfortunately, the header was too straight. Antonioli didn't even have to move his feet, and he held the ball in his arms as soon as he stretched out his hands.

In the 8th minute, the Roma team attacked in the center and gave the ball to Cassano after a short pass, but the bad boy was brought down by Simic before he could make a move, and Roma got a free kick on the right.

Players from both sides crowded into the box, Cafu sent the ball wide, Samuel beat Maldini with a quality header near the back post, Abbiati didn't react, but the ball also went wide just wide.

The pace of the game is breathless.

It's AC Milan's turn to attack.

It was Pirlo's long pass from the backcourt again. After a difficult stop, Kaka dribbled the ball to the left, and then handed Rui Costa a textbook-like through ball.

Inzaghi took the ball in the penalty area and made a rare extraordinary move, but Emerson and Lima were not deceived by his lame fake. Emerson stretched out his foot and broke the ball, but his foot was not broken very neatly, and Inzaghi fell to the ground at the same time.

Everyone looked at Corina.

Collina didn't blow the whistle, neither whistled for Emerson's foul nor sentenced Inzaghi for diving, but just signaled Inzaghi to get up quickly.

Inzaghi obediently stood up and protested.

Collina shook his head, "I can see clearly that he kicked the ball and didn't touch you."

"Inzaghi was asking the referee for a penalty, let's see in slow motion, oh, Emerson kicked the ball, but Inzaghi was doing a change of direction, it's not a foul..."

The game continued, and the Roma team obviously strengthened their defense. Although AC Milan had a clear advantage, it was difficult to easily penetrate into the dangerous zone.

Both sides had offense and defense, but neither Kaka's long-range shot nor Montella's header failed to break the deadlock.

No. In the 201st minute, Seedorf suddenly sat down on the ground without confrontation. It seemed that his right foot was injured. Kaka helped him out of the field for treatment. Just when Ancelotti was about to ask Serginho to go out to warm up, he walked back to the field.

Only 8 minutes later, Panucci was injured in the waist in the aerial battle with Ambrosini and was also helped to the sidelines. Unlike Seedorf, he failed to come back.

The Roma team was forced to make a substitution and Sarto made an emergency appearance.

This substitution seems to have become a turning point in the game, and AC Milan's offensive in the midfield went smoothly again.

In the 30nd minute of No.40 of the game, Costa and Pirlo hit the wall and cooperated for Kaka to send a through ball more than [-] meters away.

Facing the incoming ball, Kaka pressed his toes to the ground and picked the ball over Cafu's head.

But he was not able to take advantage of the trend to complete the breakthrough.

Kafu's right foot suddenly came up diagonally from the side and rear, stopped Kaka in front of him, and knocked him to the ground.

The whistle sounded, AC Milan's free kick.

Kafu lifted Kaka up, patted him on the back, and said, "It's all right."

"It's okay." Kaka looked at the national team captain who was always smiling, and couldn't get angry even if he wanted to.

This guy is a well-known smiling tiger in football, and he has hardly ever blushed with anyone, but his defense is so ruthless... Whoever tastes it will know.

　I have something to do tomorrow, may update later.
