All-around center

Modric looked at Suk, feeling helpless.

He knew very well that it was really difficult to restrict Su Ke.

This guy has been like this from before.

He is not questioning Ferguson, but he does think that the restrictions on Su Ke should be increased, especially the extreme marking, so that Su Ke can completely lose his voice.

However, Manchester United was confident that they could win Milan at home, so they did not do so.

But the current situation is the result of letting Su Ke go.

But no matter what, the game continues.

Manchester United is not without a chance.

After entering the second half, Suker will become more threatening.

This is mainly reflected in physical fitness.

Modric's physical fitness is very good, but he dare not say that he can compete with Su Ke.

"By passing the ball, we can get more opportunities when attacking."

Modric shouted to Ronaldo.

At this time, Ronaldo likes to pass people very much, but with Milan's defensive linkage, Ronaldo's current personal ability is a bit underwhelming!

Even Suker two years ago was knocked headlong into Milan's defense and unable to move.

Manchester United players await the start of the game.

The Milan players surrounded Suker and retreated to the half court.

You can see the smiles on the faces of the Milan players.

But at the moment when the ball was about to kick off, the whistle suddenly sounded and Milan took the lead in making substitution adjustments.

Maldini and Nesta exit.

Kaladze and Costacurta come on.

It is rare for two central defenders to come off the field at the same time. Usually one is replaced, leaving one to ensure the stability of the defense.

But Milan directly replaced the two men. This substitution made Manchester United smell something strange.

Maldini and Nesta came off the field. They didn't even stay on the bench, but went directly into the tunnel and returned to the locker room.

This is even more suspicious.

However, Manchester United does not have so much time to think about it at this stage.

Manchester United also quickly made substitution adjustments.

Carrick and Giggs come off.

Park Ji-sung and Luis Hasa came on the field.

‘Three Lungs’ Park Ji-sung is famous for his unstoppable physical fitness, and Luis Hasa can also provide strong help on the offensive end.

This is a means to further strengthen the attack.

Obviously, Ferguson wanted to take advantage of the absence of Milan's two central defenders to find a way to break the game.

After Milan took the lead, their overall tactics began to be defensive.

If possible, Ancelotti wants to be more thorough.

But the situation did not allow it. Maldini and Nesta had physical problems, and their stay on the court was of little use, or even had side effects.

Therefore, he decisively chose to make a substitution.

At the same time, Ancelotti also asked Suker to retreat and defend more, leaving Kaka alone in the frontcourt to wait for the impact.

Although Su Ke is the center position.

But compared to Kaká, Suker is better at defense.

For this reason, when Suker retreated, Milan's position also changed to 4-5-1.

"Manchester United's offense has become more and more intense. Since AC Milan reversed the score, Manchester United has begun to actively seek shots!"

"Rooney also frequently attempts long-range shots, but he doesn't grasp the opportunities well."

"Milan's two centre-backs, Kaladze and Costacurta, were not in very good shape entering the game. They were unable to withstand the pressure when faced with the challenge for the top, which also caused goalkeeper Dida to bear a lot of pressure. Save pressure.”

Time passed little by little.

When Milan took defensive measures, Manchester United's offense became even more unscrupulous.

Su Ke also retreats to defend, and of course he can counterattack if he has the opportunity.

It's just that Manchester United's offense is fierce, but it is also very cautious.

This caution mainly stems from Modric.

This guy is really stable!

Throughout the game, he made almost no passing errors, and frequently launched sharp attacks. Several passes could threaten Milan's goal.

Ronaldo and Rooney also played very hard.

Although they usually don't deal with them, they are dedicated enough and will not bring personal emotions into the game.

Luis Hasa, who came on as a substitute, also ran hard, using his physical advantage to frequently put pressure on Milan.

Suker retreated very deep, almost in a defensive position.

He has certain defensive abilities, but he is not a professional defensive player, so the effect is not very good.

But from time to time he can also intercept and coordinate defense.

For a forward, this level of defensive support is enough.

But they are facing Manchester United!

With each offensive advance, Milan was under great pressure.

At this time, Manchester United's offense, driven by Modric, once again reached the penalty area.

The Milan players don't care about the bus or not. They all enter the penalty area without giving you a foothold or a breakthrough point.

You have the ability to shoot from a distance!

Then, Manchester United began to bombard AC Milan wildly.

"You're so fucking blind!"

Suk couldn't help but curse secretly.

Cristiano Ronaldo, Rooney, Modric, one by one, are all good at long-range shooting.

These three people stand around Milan's goal and can pose a threat from any direction.

Dida was fully focused, keeping his body tense at all times. The moment the opponent took off, he had to make a save, otherwise it would be too late.

The time has entered the 80th minute, and Manchester United has been playing around Milan for a while.

During this period, Milan also made several counterattacks, but they were all destroyed by Manchester United's active retreat.

To put it bluntly, it’s still a matter of defense.

Although Maldini and Nesta are old, they are still stable enough.

But that's not the case with Kaladze and Costacurta.

These two guys are really going to be big colanders.

It even caused Cafu and Jankulovsky on both sides to bear huge defensive pressure.

Once the full-backs bear too much defensive pressure, they will be easily beaten.

At this time, Scholes pretended to shoot and suddenly chose to split the ball.

Ronaldo quickly hit the bottom and took Cafu away at the same time.

After Ronaldo stabilized the ball, he looked up towards the penalty area.

"Get ready to fight for the top!"

Cafu shouted subconsciously, thinking that Ronaldo was going to pass.

But Ronaldo didn't do this. Instead, he passed the ball diagonally to Park Ji-sung in the rib area. Park continued to pass the ball across the ball.

The ball came to the outside of the front of the penalty area.

And there, Modric moved diagonally forward from right to left.

Modric planted his left foot on the ground and tilted his body to the left. This action was extremely confusing. Costacurta thought that Modric was going to pass from the left. When his body tilted to the left that day, he just heard There were exclamations in my ears.

"Watch out! He's going to shoot!"

Suk shouted anxiously.

But by this time, it was too late.

Modric cracked his ankle and thrust his right foot forward.

Modric's signature long shot from the outside of the instep.

The ball made an arc and flew towards the blind corner on the left.

Milan goalkeeper Dida also failed to make a quick judgment, and by the time he was about to save, it was already too late.

The ball swished into the net.

"Goal!! Modric!!"

"In the 86th minute, Modric scored with a wonderful long-range shot. This was his signature long-range shot. This action made Costacurta make a wrong judgment and was unable to block it."

"But we also need to praise Modric's long-range shot."

Manchester United fans in the stadium also burst into fierce cheers.

Scoring this key goal in the 86th minute saved Manchester United from a bad situation.

Seeing the goal, Modric was relieved. He did not choose to celebrate. He ran into the goal, picked up the ball and ran towards the center circle.

"There's still time, let's get another one in!"

Modric shouted loudly.

But at this time, Milan also made the last substitution.

Simic came on as a substitute and replaced Ambrosini to further increase the defensive intensity.

For Milan, an away draw is acceptable.

Moreover, they will not let a good situation slip away from their hands.

In the last few minutes, the battle between the two sides became more intense.

Fouls occurred frequently, and both Suker and Seedorf received a yellow card.

However, Manchester United's physical energy was also exhausted, and due to frequent foul tactics, Manchester United's offense was also delayed.

In the last few minutes, both sides gritted their teeth and persisted.

Until the end of the game, there was no goal.

Finally, the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals.

Manchester United suffered a strong draw with AC Milan 3:3 at home!
