Chapter 464 Satisfied?Not satisfied?

Micoud's injury made George very angry.

From the very beginning, the game was carried out according to one's own ideas.But this kind of emergency is not within his control.George shook his head, thought for a while and called Arshavin.

Without Micoud's lubricant in midfield, George chose to open the gap from the wing.

Milan still has a lot of wing problems.

Especially Pancaro's side.

George let Arshavin play because he wanted to use his speed and technique to break through Pancaro.

Because Miku is missing, Pires can only come back.When Pires came back from the wing, Cafu, who had been relatively quiet, became active.Arshavin, whom George placed high hopes on, did not perform well after playing.

Pancaro is not as weak as George imagined.

In defense, occupying positions is excellent.Arshavin tried to break into the penalty area several times, but failed in the end.And Arshavin is not the kind of very hard-working player.

All the players at Blackburn are hardworking.Even players such as Kaka, Micoud, and Pires, under George's request, spare no effort when the team needs to defend.Moreover, he kept interspersed and running in the frontcourt, preparing to open up space.

Just like Miku, in midfield, he runs a lot.Link between midfield and frontcourt.

But Arshavin was a little lazy.Yes, it is lazy.

Although he is not as lazy as Ronaldo in Real Madrid today, he is also considered a lazy player in Blackburn.

Waiting for the ball in the frontcourt.Instead of actively running, create space.

Therefore, after Pan Carlo took the position, Arshavin's going up had no effect.

Since Micoud left the field, Milan's offense has suddenly come up.Although due to the efforts of Alonso, Essien, and Blackburn's defense, they have not been able to break through Blackburn's gate.But it created several good opportunities.

What George watched off the court was worrying.

But as the saying goes, good fortune is unparalleled, but misfortune never comes singly.

Before the end of the first half, there was another injury on Blackburn's side.The injury this time is completely inexplicable.

Miku's injury just now, at least, was injured during the fight with Gattuso.Although Gattuso's movements were not big, there was still a collision after all.But this time the injury was simply nonsensical.

Sagnol stopped the ball by himself, and for some reason, he kicked the ball outside inexplicably.Then he sat up and gestured to George for a substitution.

Even the narrator didn't know what happened to Sagnol.

After watching the slow motion, I realized that when Sagnol stopped the ball, he turned 180 degrees.Might be twisted to the support foot in the middle.

George spread his hands helplessly.

Is there still such an injury?It's too fake, it's really a mouthful of cold water.

George can only pray that Sagnol's injury must not be a big deal.But seeing the serious look on the team doctor's face, George's heart skipped a beat.

"How's it going?"

The team doctor shook his head. "Old and hurt."

"Old injury?"

George frowned.Sagnol's old injury was a muscle strain during the game against Manchester United a few years ago, and he was lying in bed for three months.Although the recovery from the injury was ideal, Sagnol's injury was always in the same place every time.

Every season, although Sagnol has no major injuries, he occasionally has some minor injuries.

So hearing the old injury, George frowned.

"Well, it's still the same place. But this time it looks more serious, and it's very likely that I won't be able to play for the rest of the season."

"Season reimbursement?"

George sighed.

Sagnol is still very young now.He is only 27 years old this year, so he should be at his peak as an athlete.But in the past two seasons, it is obvious that there are various minor injuries on his body.George looked at the bench, and there really wasn't a right back substitute in the bench.

Sun Jihai In most cases, George is used in the league.

Rarely will appear in the Champions League knockout stage.

So today's bench without him.George stopped Parker and asked Parker to replace Sagnol.

After Parker played, George asked Essien to play right back and Parker to play in the middle.Anyway, Essien, like Hargreaves, is an all-around player in the midfield and backcourt.Both full-backs and even central defenders can play.

"The first half was a really difficult time for Blackburn. First Micoud was injured, then Sagnol was injured. Although it was a one-to-nil lead, I believe that if George had to choose, he would definitely choose Miku. Ku and Sagnol are fine, not that one goal."

At the end of the first half, Mortensen summed up the first half.

Mortensen was so right.If George chooses, George would rather use an away goal in exchange for the health of Micoud and Sagnol.

I don't know if the successive injuries of the players have affected Blackburn's morale.

After the start of the second half, although George had already made arrangements.The various plans for Milan are all arranged.But things like morale can spread. Blackburn played in the second half without the vigor of the first half.

Although Ancelotti is young, he is an old Jianghu and an old fox.

He immediately grasped the change in morale on Blackburn's side, and began to make tit-for-tat arrangements.And Milan is even a giant in Europe, and their players are all experienced.Especially George looked down on Milan's nursing home.

But nursing homes have many disadvantages, but there are also many advantages.

The biggest advantage of nursing homes is that they have rich experience and have experienced many battles.

Being able to see the opponent's weakness in subtle changes.And they don't need to be reminded by the coach, they can judge the situation on the field and make changes.

This is the case with Milan now.

Regardless of the poor performance of Rui Costa and Seedorf in the first half.But there has been a little change on Blackburn's side. They will be able to adjust their mentality and tactics immediately.

At 22 minutes into the second half, Milan finally equalized the score.

It was the performance of Rui Costa, who didn't show anything the whole game.

Rui Costa receives a pass from Pirlo on the right.Facing Parker, Rui Costa, whose explosive power and speed have declined, did not break through.Instead, he flicked his right foot lightly, and then made a diagonal pass into the penalty area.

The ball was sudden.

And the most important thing is that Rui Costa's ball has an excellent placement.

The ball seemed to go straight to Shevchenko.Shevchenko stepped forward and just shook his head slightly, and the ball entered the goal.

too close.

Van der Sar couldn't react at all.

George was very dissatisfied with the conceded goal off the court.This time against Milan, George was extremely prepared.For Milan, George is inevitable.George even wanted to beat Milan away, making Milan completely lose hope of promotion.

But I didn't expect too many unexpected things to happen.

George looked around.Called Klose, and then replaced Arshavin who had just been replaced in the first half with Klose.

It was Arshavin who was too inactive.

George is very dissatisfied with Arshavin's performance.

George wants to use this method in the hope of being able to urge the Blackburn players.Hope they can run positively.

It's a pity that people are not as good as God.

In 84 minutes of the game, Blackburn conceded a goal again.

This ball was an accident.

Seedorf's long-range shot hit Lucio's leg and was refracted into the net.

In fact, Seedorf's long-range shot is not very powerful, and the angle is not very tricky.Van der Sar was ready, but the ball hit Lucio's leg.This kind of thing can't be saved even if God comes.

George shook his head.

I guessed the beginning, but not the end.

Obviously it was a very good start, but in the end it turned out to be lost to Milan.

"One to two, Blackburn lost to Milan. The injuries of Micoud and Sagnol greatly affected Blackburn. Otherwise, according to the opening stage of the game, Blackburn has the advantage. Therefore, Blackburn does not need Discouraged. After all, there is still a home game. With an away goal, Blackburn still has great hopes of qualifying."

Mortensen comforts Blackburn.

Mortensen is the commentator for England, and there is some preference for Blackburn.But the Italian reporters gathered around to laugh at George.

"Coach Levy, you have played against Milan three times and lost all three games. Do you have anything to say about Milan?"

George squinted at the gloating Italian reporters.

"Victory or defeat is standard issue."

George didn't want to entangle with these Italian reporters, so he wanted to leave the place.

But they didn't want to let George go.

"Coach Levi, since winning the Champions League in 02, Milan has been excluded from the semi-finals for two consecutive seasons. What do you think is the problem?"

"Are you a football reporter?"

"Yes." The Italian reporter replied inexplicably.

George snorted.

"I don't think you have any common sense at all. Is the quarter-finals over now? I remember that the Champions League knockout rounds are two rounds. It seems that there is still one game left? Could it be that the current Champions League knockout rounds have been reformed and only one game is played? Is there a match?"

Hearing George's mocking tone, the Italian reporter was also tit for tat.

"Even if there is one more game, Blackburn still can't beat Milan."

George suddenly smiled.

"It's a pity for you to be a reporter. You should go to UEFA to compete for the chairman. Then you can make Milan the Champions League champion every day, and you don't need to quarrel with me here."

George shook his head and left the reporters.

When he returned to his bus, George's face immediately darkened.

Speaking of which, one to two away games is not an unacceptable score.But a good game ended like this in the end, which made George very dissatisfied.

What George is most worried about now is the injuries of Micoud and Sagnol.

Hope to have a good result.
