Chapter 150 Olympiacos
The match between AC Milan and Lazio has young players, young coaches, new tactics, and the best rookie, so its popularity has not dropped.

In Europe, Germany's youth training has always produced a large number of talents. In recent years, the British emperor has often been touted, while the Italian youth training has been criticized relatively speaking.

The appearance of Shaqi, Maldini Jr. and others made the Italian media feel elated. Pogba, De Bruyne, and Xiaqi have become the three trump cards of today's youth midfielders.

Of course, Xia Qi's fineness still needs to be tested!

The European media wind blew up a wave of summer honey, and this trend also blew to mainland China. Xia Qi officially entered the eyes of Chinese fans.

Just like Linsanity in the NBA, even though he is of Chinese origin, he still attracts fans in his motherland like crazy. AC Milan itself has many fans in mainland China. Coupled with Xia Qi's Chinese identity, he naturally attracts more fans than other European stars.

Of course, the king of competitive sports wins everything. No matter how unique Xia Qi is, his number of fans still cannot compare with Melo.

Chinese sea cucumbers are unable to land in the top five European leagues. Chinese fans have become the spiritual sustenance of Chinese fans. Xia Qi is so popular in the motherland.

His shooting and passing highlights in new media have exceeded [-] million hits.

The high popularity makes people jealous, Dong Woxing, the Internet celebrity clown, said in the live broadcast room: "What's the matter, I can do it instead of me."

Where there is Xiami, there is Xiahei, this is normal!

Some merchants in China began to seek Shaqi as their endorsement. Raiola's agency took this opportunity to enter the mainland of China. In short, Xiaqi's career has been smooth sailing recently, and everything is developing in a good direction.

But in terms of emotions, I just keep cutting, and the reasoning is still chaotic!
The goddess Gabriel in my heart, the younger junior sister Trusova, the K treasure and the daughter who often love each other.

Xia Ping'er was very anxious for her brother, if things continued like this, the scumbag would not be able to escape.

Xia's father and Xia's mother asked Xia Qi to concentrate on playing football and let go of his emotions in advance. Now is the time to raise the ball, and every minute and every second is very important.

In fact, Xia Qi worked very hard. In addition to training in the club, Xia Qi invited his instructor to practice in the systematic training ground.

Shaggy never forgets to go back to the secondary world to take Baggio and Batty to fly together. The Serie A in the millennium is stronger than the current Serie A. Shaggy must be upgraded in the main world so as not to lag behind.

After AC Milan came back from the capital, they played two consecutive Serie A games at home.

势头正旺的AC米兰在意甲联赛第14轮，2:1战胜帕尔马，第15轮2:0战胜都灵。

Juventus in the same period was also unstoppable. The president of the peak period parachuted from La Liga, which was a little stronger, to the Serie A in the weakened period, which was simply a dimensionality reduction blow.

0:3 away to Fiorentina, 1:0 at home to win the National Derby and beat Inter Milan.

No one can stop their footsteps!
Naples, like AC Milan, also has two consecutive victories, while Inter Milan is starting to fall behind. In the 14th round, they drew with Rome 2:2 away, and in the 15th round, they lost the national derby.

第15轮战罢，尤文图斯继续领跑，15轮比赛13胜1平1负积40分，遥遥领先。

Naples and AC Milan share 31 points, Inter Milan 26 points, Lazio 24 points and Roma 22 points.

Xi Ti won three consecutive victories and stepped on his rivals in the same city. Gattuso beamed and took Shaqi and Maldini, who had just been approved by UEFA to participate in the competition, on an expedition to Greece.

Gattuso and his disciples went to Greece with the mood of traveling. They arrived in Athens one day earlier, and did not rush to Piraeus immediately, but took a half-day holiday on the spot.

If AC Milan can win this game, they will accumulate 13 points and qualify first in the group. If they lose, as long as they do not lose two goals, AC Milan can also qualify second in the group.

So their moods were in full bloom all the way, and they were very comfortable. No matter what they arrived in the mythical capital, they would steal half a day's leisure!
In fact, Olympiacos is not weak. They ranked third in the Greek Super League with 8 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses with 27 points.

Ranked third in Group F with 7 points in the Europa League, retaining the hope of qualifying with two goals against AC Milan.

Seriously overlooked by the Milanese is that Olympiacos only conceded 1 goal per game in the UEFA Europa League group stage this season, and only 48 of all 8 teams are less than it. AC Milan is not among these eight teams.

Olympiacos has only lost one game at home in the Greek Super League this season, with an unbeaten rate of 85.7%. The most important thing is that Olympiacos has a particularly sharp spear at home. They have scored 18 goals so far this season, 12 of which were scored at home.

There have been 2 confrontation records between the two teams in history. Both sides won one game each and drew. The game AC Milan won was the first round of this season's group stage, winning 3:1 at home.

Therefore, Gattuso and his team thought that this trip was a routine matter, just punch in at work.

But football is round!

The pictures of AC Milan's shopping tour in Athens were reported by the Greek media, and Olympiacos shouted: the brave wins when we meet on a narrow road!
2018/12/16

Greece
Kareskakis Stadium
The home stadium of Olympiacos is not far from Athens. There are more than 3000 seats in the audience, and there are no empty seats tonight.

Xia Qi and Maldini Jr. sat quietly on the bench, watching their teammates lead the ball boys and line up to enter the field!

Since the two are very popular recently, the live broadcast still gave Xia Qi a lot of pictures.

It can be seen that the atmosphere in AC Milan is very relaxed. Maldini and Xia Qi are still whispering something, their faces are full of youthful breath.

"Viewers, welcome to the final Europa League Group F match, Olympiacos vs AC Milan at home.

In this game, AC Milan will advance to the top 32 as long as they do not lose two goals.

Let's take a look at the starting lineups of the two teams:
AC Milan main lineup (433):
Goalkeeper: Donnarumma No. 99

Defenders: No. 2 Calabria, No. 33 Caldara, No. 13 Romagnoli, No. 68 Rodriguez
Midfield: No. 79 Casey, No. 21 Biglia, No. 5 Bonaventura
Forwards: No. 8 Suso, No. 9 Higuain, No. 10 Charhanoglu
Tonight's AC Milan midfield single-core, AC Milan coach Ivan Gattuso let the popular fried chicken Xia Qi substitute.

I think this is a disguised rest, and at the same time, I want Shaki and Maldini to experience the atmosphere of the European war, which is conducive to the growth of the two.

Olympiacos starting lineup tonight: 451
Goalkeeper: No. 93 Sa
Defenders: No. 14 Abdul Rawi, No. 66 Cisse, No. 26 Vukovic, No. 23 Courtlis
中场：4号马蒂·卡马拉、12号吉列尔梅、10号费特法齐德斯、7号福图尼斯、56号丹尼尔
Forward: No. 9 Guerrero
Although Olympiacos is not as talented as AC Milan with the attention of the whole of Europe, but their overall strength is not weak, at least the record at home is not bad.

So tonight's game will never be a one-sided game, it is worth looking forward to! "

"Beep!"

Xia Qi heard the whistle, stopped chatting with Maldini Jr., and watched the field intently, as the so-called bystanders know!

Substituting a role off the court to watch the game will have a deeper understanding of techniques and tactics. This is a good opportunity to learn.

Amidst the loud cheers, Olympiacos kicked off.

The two teams actively launched an offensive and defensive contest.

After Olympiacos made three passes and two downs in the backcourt, right back Abdul Rawi sent a through pass from the backcourt wing.

Forward Guerrero faced Rodriguez in a quick advance in the frontcourt. Guerrero's movements were not very flexible and he naturally turned the ball inward.

He attracted two defenders by himself.

Guerrero slanted the ball back to the middle, and the defensive midfielder Guilherme stepped forward to control the ball and quickly sent a diagonal pass for transfer.

The Olympiakos midfielder is double defensive midfielder + three central midfielders. The three central midfielders are all-round midfielders who are thick and thin. This is also the current trend of B2B midfielders in the world.

The core player of Olympiacos, Fortunis, cut in from the left and led the ball. He found an angle in the front of the penalty area and immediately kicked and shot.

The football flies to the lower left of the center of the goal.Donnarumma confiscated the ball after moving.

When it was AC Milan's turn to attack, Casey responded to Rodriguez's pass in front of the center circle, kicked the ball, turned around and advanced, bypassing the defensive player Fett Fazides and entering the dangerous zone.

Seeing that Casey had passed his defense zone, Fetfazides switched to marking the goal and intercepted Bonaventura, who was advancing with the ball.

Casey stopped the ball with his back to the goal, Vukovic stepped forward cautiously and tried to steal the ball, but Casey immediately pulled the ball and turned his back to the opponent after stopping the ball.

Immediately after the ball was out, he turned around and went forward Vukovic.The movement is coherent and never procrastinated.

Biglia kicked the ball from the side and then sent the ball to Casey's running line.

When Casey reached the left side of the penalty area and then stopped the ball, Cisse was in front of him, and Vukovic was behind him, and the two formed a pincer attack.

Casey slumped his shoulders and swayed towards the front left. The central defender Cisse's center of gravity was slightly deflected. Casey retracted his center of gravity.

The football flew to the lower right corner of the goal, Olympiacos goalkeeper Sa, flew to save the ball and pressed the football into his arms.

Get up quickly and kick off with big feet!
Quick transition between offense and defense!
Midfielder Daniel passed the ball accurately, and Olympiacos striker Guerrero used his personal physical advantage to overwhelm Caldara. After taking off, he shook his head and flew to the front left of the penalty area.

Fortunis followed up and directly headed the football to the left rib of the penalty area without adjusting.

The two alley-oops instantly penetrated AC Milan's defense.

Kamara quickly cut in, and at the same time, after Fortunis headed the ball, he outflanked the center of the goal.

This set of tactics should be commonly used by Olympiacos, and the players cooperate with each other skillfully.

Fortunis headed the ball forward and did not even look to see if there was anyone on the left.

He believes that his teammates will definitely get the football.

Kamara is indeed worthy of Fortunis' trust, and finally caught up with the ball before the bottom line and made a cross!

The half-high ball flew to the middle of the goal, and Fortunis just rushed there, facing the football and volleying directly into the air!

Donnarumma made a world-class save, arming the ball from such close range.

Romagnoli followed and cleared the ball from the touchline.

Xia Qi was frightened into a cold sweat, turned his head to look at Gattuso, saw that his expression was dignified, and understood that he did not expect Olympiacos' attack to be so sharp.

Their quick pass and cut cooperation in the frontcourt has an unusually high success rate. This is no longer the level of the Greek Super League, but the level of the Premier League.

These do not seem to be in the preparation plan of the AC Milan coaching staff.

In the 15th minute of the game, AC Milan responded with tit-for-tat in the frontcourt. Suso quickly advanced towards the bottom line after receiving a pass from Bonaventura on the right.

In front of the defensive player Guilherme, first change to cut inward, then knock the ball and cut back to the side to accelerate to the bottom.

A good-quality cross was sent out, and Higuain, the team's top scorer in the Europa League, obliquely inserted behind Olympiakos defender Vukovic and shook his head to attack the goal.

The football flew over the near corner of the goal and was extremely threatening.Goalkeeper Safei made a limit save and sent the ball high above the crossbar.

The offensive threats of the two teams seem to be full, and the exciting scenes have never been interrupted.

The cheering momentum of the fans has always been frenzied.

Looking at the tension level, Xia Qi felt a little urgent to urinate!
This is the European war?
It is indeed faster than Serie A. No wonder the results in Serie A and Europe have not been satisfactory in recent years. I wonder if Juventus, with Ronaldo, can win the Champions League?

In the 19th minute of the game, Fortunis ran forward from the midfield. In front of Bonaventura, he received a pass from Kamara. Bonaventura made a decisive grab.

Marseille roundabout in a small area!
Dodged Bonaventura's press, and adjusted the direction he was facing, but did not form a breakthrough effect and was still under Bonaventura's defense.
In fact, there is almost no practical effect.

But the visual effects are absolutely stunning!
All the fans stood up and applauded, calling his name: "Fortunis"

Little Maldini, who was sitting next to Xia Qi, muttered: "Soil leopard! Is this useful?"

The enthusiasm of the fans made the young man's mentality unbalanced, and he would be scolded by the coach for useless show skills in the AC Milan youth training team!

Little Maldini felt that the Greeks had never seen the world!
Xia Qi tilted his head slightly to look at the serious little Maldini, and suddenly found that the atmosphere in the team was not right, the coaching staff was under-prepared, the teammates were arrogant and proud, and the atmosphere was too relaxed...

Romagnoli quickly rushed to make up for the defense, and Biglia also came from the rear.

Seeing that he was only focusing on showing off his skills, Fortunis lost the opportunity to counterattack quickly. Seeing that AC Milan had returned to the defense, he was not in a hurry. He passed the ball short to the right and advanced into the penalty area after the ball.

Teammate No. 10 Fetfazides rushed up, stopped and walked to the right in front of the penalty area, kicked a long shot and hit the goal.

Defender Rodriguez stepped forward and tried to block his shot with his body, while Olympiacos striker Guerrero advanced into the center of the penalty area.

Fetfazides did not shoot the ball, but instead smashed the ball to the right, pulled the angle and sent a through ball.

The football rolls into the penalty area, and on the edge of the penalty area on the right, another teammate, Daniel, quickly cuts in from the outside and grabs the ball before the full-back Rodriguez.

Olympiacos striker Guerrero moved forward and took away AC Milan defender Caldara.

Fortunis rushed forward from behind his teammate Guerrero to grab the front point.

The AC Milan defense line with belated awareness realized that the big center Guerrero was just a cover, and the real killer came from behind him.

Unmarked, Fortunis met Daniel's half-high pass and swung his right leg to volley and shoot!
The football went straight to the near corner of the goal, and goalkeeper Donnarumma had no time to make a save.

The ball is in.

1: 0!

Olympiacos sees the dawn of promotion!
AC Milan was pushed to the brink.
