Messi was so scared that he cried when he maxed out his header talent at the start of the game

Chapter 554

There was a popular saying in the football world: "Mourinho will teach you how to be a good player, while Ancelotti will teach you how to be a human being."

This sentence well reveals Ancelotti's locker room management style.

Unlike Mourinho, he is above all players and implements iron-fisted methods.

Instead, he always puts himself and the players on a parallel position to understand the players, and then guide and motivate the players.

In the home team locker room.

After Ancelotti finished the tactical analysis of the first half, he gave a speech.

"Gentlemen, the current situation is not good for us, but it is far from bad."

"Although we are behind by one goal, we only need one goal to directly turn the situation of the game around."

"To be honest, the current situation is much better than that night in Istanbul."

In the locker room, some people chuckled and some shook their heads, as if they recalled the darkest day in the history of AC Milan.

"Although I don't want to say this, if we swap our current situation with Liverpool at the end of the first half."

"Think about it."

"At that time, they were three goals behind at halftime, but they still had the courage and confidence to play a better second half."

"And we were not just one goal behind."

"Since the damn Liverpool can tie the game with three goals at halftime, then of course we can also reverse the situation with only one goal!"

"We have encountered many difficulties this season, and even before this, no one believed that we could reach the semi-finals!"

"But we did it!"

"We not only crushed those doubts, we will also prove that we can do more!"

"Today!"

"It is definitely not our end!"

"We will definitely defeat Manchester City, return to the Champions League final, and take back the Champions League title that should have belonged to us in 2005!!"

When Ancelotti's sonorous speech ended, AC Milan players responded one after another in the locker room.

"Milan!"

"Win!"

Similarly, at this moment, outside the door of the visiting team's locker room, you can also hear the shouting.

"Manchester City!"

"Win!"

"Manchester City!"

"Win!"

Both teams have already raised their fighting spirit and team morale for the upcoming second half.

........................................................

After the 15-minute halftime break, the two teams returned to the stadium.

Nearly 80,000 fans of the Rossoneri at the San Siro Stadium also adjusted their mood in the midfield.

"Tiamo Milan!"

"Forza Milan!"

"Sababu Milan Ragu!"

"Pasami Ragu Milan! Milan!"

The fans gave AC Milan a deafening cheer.

"Dear fans in front of the TV!"

"Welcome back to the live broadcast of the second leg of the 2006-07 Champions League semi-final, AC Milan vs. Manchester City."

"The cheers at the San Siro Stadium are loud."

"The second half of the game is about to begin."

"The players of both teams have already stood in their respective halves."

"The personnel of the two teams remain unchanged."

In the ESPN live broadcast room, the commercial time ended and the two commentators returned to the screen.

"Beep!"

"With the referee's whistle, the second half officially begins!"

"AC Milan has the ball!"

"Inzaghi kicks off!"

"Kaka..."

"Keep passing back."

"Pirlo..."

"Sent a long pass directly to the middle!"

"Seedorf!"

"Inzaghi!"

"Turn and shoot!!"

"This ball..."

"Wow, it's so exciting. Inzaghi's sudden turn and volley found the gap in Manchester City's back line!"

"But James is very focused!"

"I judged the trajectory of the ball correctly and successfully held the ball in my arms!"

"AC Milan's first offensive round after the second half kicked off was a long pass from Pirlo that suddenly accelerated and launched a blitzkrieg, almost opening Manchester City's goal."

"Although the ball didn't go in, it definitely showed the momentum and determination of AC Milan, as if saying:"

"We will never give up the victory!"

-[Wow, I was drinking water at the time, and I was so scared that my hands shook, so I drank all the water from my collar and took a bath...]

-[Milan is going to launch a fierce attack in the second halfAttack. 】

-【It depends on whether Manchester City can hold on. Although Milan is a typical defense-oriented team, with Pirlo, Kaka, and Inzaghi, if they really attack recklessly...】

-【Did Ancelotti give the players doping directly in the midfield? So fierce! 】

In the San Siro Stadium, the shouts of the Rossoneri fans became louder and louder, almost drowning the entire stadium.

.............................................................

In the next 10 minutes.

Amid the cheers of the home team, AC Milan entered a bombardment mode that had not been shown in the two encounters.

In the 49th minute of the game.

Bale's cross from the left side of the front court was intercepted by Pirlo.

Pirlo quickly passed the ball to Cafu, and moved the ball to the right, and then Cafu made a long pass.

The ball rolled rapidly.

Along the sideline, it rolled across the center line and rolled to the gap in the right area of ​​the front court.

Kaka! !

He relied on his speed to overtake Martinez who was chasing the ball!

He got the ball first.

Then he dribbled the ball horizontally without hesitation and rushed into Manchester City's penalty area from the left.

"Cafu's long pass is fine!"

"He found the gap in Manchester City's frontcourt and instigated AC Milan's counterattack!"

"Kaka!"

"He got into the penalty area!"

"Kaka!"

"Shot from the near corner!"

"This ball..."

"James!! James pounced on the ball!"

"But he didn't hold it!"

"Inzaghi!"

"Shot from the far corner!"

"This ball..."

"It hit Cannavaro!"

"Cannavaro quickly cleared the ball and sent it out of the penalty area, fearing that Inzaghi would rush up and make another shot."

......

59th minute of the game.

Kaka strode on the left side and made continuous passes.

Bale chased.

The distance between the two gradually narrowed.

Kaka gritted his teeth and accelerated.

When he approached the baseline, he turned and kicked the ball on Bale's leg, and it bounced out of the baseline.

"Corner kick!!"

"AC Milan got a corner kick!!"

"Kaka handled the ball well."

"I can't get rid of Bale."

"Just use Bale to create other opportunities."

Kaka panted heavily, took the ball thrown by the ball boy, and came to the corner area.

Bale pulled up his jersey and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Spit.

Kaka was shocked by Bale's speed. It was also the first time in his life that the Welsh teenager felt that he had met an opponent in terms of speed.

However, the competition between the two was temporarily over.

Next, it depends on AC Milan's corner kick.

Manchester City players returned to the penalty area to participate in the corner kick defense. Of course, AC Milan players were also in the penalty area.

Cannavaro was guarding Inzaghi.

Despite the decline in physical strength, the two teams were still highly focused and did not forget their responsibilities.

The linesman raised the flag to signal.

"Bang!"

Pirlo did not lob the ball into the penalty area, but sent a reverse triangle pass.

The ball was sent to the top of the penalty area.
