Ace Young Marshal

Chapter 355 The door god is born!

The AC Milan fans in the San Siro stands looked serious, and their unoptimism about the game was all written on their faces.

From the perspective of qualifying factors, neither AC Milan nor Hamburg can afford to lose in this game. Because AC Milan has the advantage of the home court, it is reasonable to strive for 3 points, and Hamburg can be satisfied as long as they can get out.

But Situ Yunbing on the sidelines obviously had other ideas!

A football game is not an RPG, and it doesn't get more difficult as it progresses. Obviously, the difficulty of this group's competition is comparable to the key battle of the knockout round!
The defending champion Barcelona seems far away, but it is so close that they will inevitably meet!
Situ Yunbing wants to fight Guardiola's wrist!

Hamburg's ability to play against Barcelona in the group stage is also the best baptism!

But until then to ensure survival is a matter of beating AC Milan at the San Siro!

AC Milan overreacted after losing a point and forcibly launched an onslaught, but under the background of no foothold in the midfield, the hidden dangers brought about by the forced attack on the wing almost caused a catastrophe!
Abarth was successfully intercepted by Kanter from the rear after collaborating with Cassano when he hit the wall with an assist in the frontcourt!
Kanter's performance today is really eye-catching, he is free and efficient at the same time!
This small player who looks like a gourd really makes people see the shadow of Makelele in the past!
Hamburg launched a fast break from the backcourt, Rakitic passed the ball to the frontcourt, De Bruyne wiped Van Bommel in the change of direction and sent a scalpel-like through ball!

When Griezmann had already formed a single-handed situation, he adjusted one more step in the penalty area. It was this step that gave Thiago Silva a chance to return to the defense and block with a shovel. In the end, Griezmann's The shot was blocked by Silva's legs to the limit!

Thiago Silva, who got up from the ground, couldn't blame his teammates in the midfield too much, but he still spread his hands to express his dissatisfaction.

Situ Yunbing gritted his teeth slightly, even if he missed such an opportunity, he was a little hard to let go even if he was super tolerant.

At the level of the Champions League, it is already a strong performance for Hamburg to be able to play an advantage in the away game. If you want to play a stronger performance, it is insatiable!

Ibrahimovic was very helpless in the frontcourt, and Cassano's spirit was completely exhausted.

If it wasn't for Hamburg, I'm afraid they can't imagine their midfield is so fragile, so vulnerable!
Allegri is also very helpless. AC Milan's midfield looks like the engine is rusted today. It depends on Seedorf to organize the attack. Neither Van Bommel nor Nocerino can do it, but Seedorf seems to be running away. Without Demel's Wuzhishan, physical confrontation is not Demel's opponent at all.

The defense mainly relied on Van Bommel, but Van Bommel was hard to beat with two fists and four hands. The combination of Rakitic and De Bruyne played him around, sweating a lot, but the ball didn't touch a few times.

As for Nocerino's hard work on both ends of the offense and defense, but it's useless to just work hard, and he becomes completely different after kicking and kicking. Maybe his teammates can't understand what he is doing.

The midfielder wins the world, Barcelona has explained this, and Hamburg is now walking a similar path.

In the 42nd minute of the game, Seedorf finally fulfilled his duties as an offensive organizer in the frontcourt. He sent a wonderful pass to Emmanuelsen.

The Hamburg defense line is the tightest on Ibrahimovic, followed by Cassano, and finally Emmanuelson.

Seedorf's foot stuck to the ground was a bit like a fairy ball, and he seemed to not know who to pass it to, but Emmanuelson's inward cut after bypassing Azpilicueta formed a single knife!

But just as Ibrahimovic followed up in the middle and beckoned for the ball, Emmanuelson dribbled the ball into the left rib of the penalty area and shot himself!
The quality of his shot is not bad, and he flew towards the far corner of the goal. Unfortunately, Navas's prediction was correct, and he gave the lead before making the save.

Ibrahimovic was furious and yelled at Emmanuelsen with a frantic expression!

"Emanuelson wasted a single goal, his shot was magically saved by Keylor Navas!
Ibrahimovic was very angry about this. If Emmanuelsen passed the ball to Ibrahimovic just now, I think this ball will probably be converted into a goal!

AC Milan missed a great chance, their best chance since the start of the game, a chance to equalize! "

With his face in his hands, Allegri looked even more disappointed than Emmanuelsen.

Situ Yunbing pointed to Azpilicueta's eyes sternly, warning the other party to observe the situation carefully and not to let down his vigilance!
The first half of the game ended quickly, De Bruyne's long-range shot at the last moment was resolved by Abbiati in a thrilling manner.

Hamburg walked into the locker room with a 1-0 lead.

Back in the locker room, Situ Yunbing re-emphasized the tactics for the second half of the game.

One thing he was worried about. Originally, in the first 30 minutes, after Hamburg made a long-range threat, AC Milan's defense took the initiative to strengthen the defense at the front of the penalty area, giving Hamburg a chance to play a deep offensive advantage. Although Hamburg's goal came from Van Dijk It was a chance for a corner kick, but Matuidi first played the offensive depth advantage from the wing to create a dangerous situation.

But after conceding the ball, AC Milan's defense returned to its original state.

He would rather bear the threat of the opponent's long-range shots than take the risk of giving Hamburg the space behind him to take advantage of.

Perhaps when weighing the risks of the two, the AC Milan defense led by Nesta still thinks that they would rather let the opponent shoot from a long distance than let Hamburg make trouble in their penalty area!
The advantages brought by dominating the midfield are already obvious, and it would be a bit whimsical to dismember the opponent's defense.

The central defender formed by Thiago Silva and Nesta is definitely not so easy to ravage.

unless
Situ Yunbing is willing to take the risk of defense, remove a midfielder and return to the three forwards!

In the context of leading by one goal, Situ Yunbing thought there was no need to take risks!

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again. AC Milan played a wave of strong attack after the opening. Seedorf lagged behind. Sano and Emmanuelson retreated, and the offensive advancement was either relying on Seedorf's long pass, or relying on the two strikers to advance from the side.

If AC Milan played like this in the first minute of the game, Hamburg would feel a little uncomfortable, but now because AC Milan is behind, they have such a posture. impregnable.

When Cassano tried a long-range shot from the right side of the penalty area and made a save from Navas, Ibrahimovic's follow-up shot was blocked by Boateng in time to get out of the bottom line.

Boateng turned around and clapped hands with Navas who got up, and then immediately directed his teammates to come back and defend!

AC Milan took advantage of this corner attack opportunity to form consecutive shooting opportunities!

First, Van Dijk headed out and was volleyed directly by Nocerino outside the penalty area. After the football was blocked by Azpilicueta with a half-turn and back, Antonini sent a half-high pass from the wing. Ibrahimovic Ran to the left side of the penalty area, squeezed away Van Dijk, stopped the ball, adjusted, turned around and volleyed!
Navas made a sharp save to block the ball out of the penalty area!
For a while, the restricted area in Hamburg was jittery!

Finally, a counter-attack opportunity was formed. De Bruyne was interrupted by Nocerino's quick pursuit in the mid-way rush. He wanted to send a through ball to Royce at the last moment but was blocked by Nesta. !

The Hamburg fans sighed, and Situ Yunbing clapped his hands and shouted on the sidelines to let the players retreat to defend!

Seeing that AC Milan's on-the-spot fast break was about to pose a threat again, but after the ball reached Emmanuelsen's feet, his long shot from outside the penalty area directly sent the ball to the stands.

The mad attack at the beginning of the second half came to an end for now.

In view of Emmanuelson's performance, Allegri could only choose to substitute, because his teammates on the field had great opinions on him.

Aquilani came on to replace him.

AC Milan changed to a 442 formation, letting Ibrahimovic and Cassano take charge of the attack, Seedorf still retreated in the backcourt, and Aquilani played in the midfield.

Situ Yunbing put his arms around his chest and tilted his head slightly to observe AC Milan's performance 5 minutes after the substitution. He clearly showed a thoughtful expression, calm and focused.

Then after he lowered his arms, he decisively gave the team an order, and the two full-backs released all their offensive energy!

The change of AC Milan is to strengthen the resistance and control ability in the middle. If Hamburg continues to maintain the previous style of play, it will be difficult to continuously deliver shells to the two forwards as before.

So now to strengthen the offensive aggressiveness of the full-backs is to make full use of the width of the field and continue to bring pressure to the offense!

But the side effect is that the expansion of defensive space will increase the threat of AC Milan's fast break.

In the 62nd minute of the game, Aquilani was destroyed by Demel in the frontcourt.

After he turned around, he found that Nocerino stepped forward to successfully counterattack Rakitic, and then knocked the ball horizontally to Seedorf, who directly stepped forward to stop the ball and sent a direct pass on the spot.

Cassano ran to the front left of the penalty area to control the ball. He seemed to have stopped the ball and was about to change direction, but he took a step towards the side and then changed direction. This change of rhythm made him dodge Kanter Steal!

In the process of continuing to push the ball forward, Cassano observed Van Dijk running towards him, so he decisively passed the ball obliquely to the left side of the penalty area.

Ibrahimovic quickly slanted into the running position, and Boateng followed the defense. Ibrahimovic suddenly stopped and pulled the ball to change direction after taking a step with the ball. Boateng did not expect that the tall Ibrahimovic would be so flexible. When following up, Ibrahimovic was already about to take a shot!
Navas, who attacked at the critical moment, blocked most of the angles of Ibrahimovic's shot. The moment Ibrahimovic hit the shot, Navas also made a save!

What makes Ibrahimovic feel unbelievable is that Navas actually hugged the ball with both hands at close range!

hug!
If 60 minutes before the game, Kanter was the best player in Hamburg's defense, then at this moment when Navas stood up from the ground with his hands holding the ball indifferently, everyone in the audience was amazed!
Navas, who looks mediocre, seems to exude an air of despair that makes AC Milan's strikers invisible!
The Hamburg goalkeeper is born!
