Chapter 379 We Are the Champions
Chapter 379 We Are the Champions
Three strikers are relatively rare in Serie A teams, especially now that it is the final of the Champions League, but now AC Milan has no retreat. After Di Natale scored the fourth goal, Ancelotti has no other options.
Offense against offense, when the game restarted, except for the fans of AC Milan who were behind, fans all over the world were boiling. This is the final of the Champions League, and such a final is generally very dull.
No matter what the result is, this game will definitely be recorded in the history of the Champions League final, because looking at the entire Champions League final, it is almost possible to find a more exciting final than this game.
AC Milan quickly entered the Cagliari half and sent the ball into the Cagliari penalty area. Cafu made a cross from the right. Hierro performed very stably and pressed the ball against Inzaghi.
The ejected ball landed at Cagliari's feet and counterattacked. Conte found Poboski with a diagonal pass, and the Czech ran wildly.
Compared with the opening game, Poborski's speed has dropped a lot. The game on the court was played wonderfully, and the players consumed more energy, let alone the finals brought more than physical energy consumption to the players.
In a game like the Champions League final, the pressure on the heart is far heavier and greater than that on the body, so under the pressure of both parties, the physical consumption will be even more intense.
Of course, this is also relative. Poborski consumes a lot of physical energy, and Maldini is actually not that good. Even compared to Poborski, Maldini consumes more.
At this moment, the captain of AC Milan may rely more on his own willpower. The word captain represents authority, but responsibility. There is no doubt that Maldini is an excellent captain.
Of course, Conte is also an excellent captain. Perhaps Conte will not leave such a strong mark in world football like Maldini, but in the hearts of Cagliari, Conte is definitely one of the best captains, not even this one.
Poboski failed to pass Maldini in the end, but it was the captain of Cagliari who followed, and after passing the ball to Poboski, Conte did not stop himself.
Cross back to Conte, and Conte gave the ball to the veteran Zola with a diagonal pass, but this time AC Milan was obviously prepared. Although Zola passed the ball to Ribery as he wished, AC Milan also cut off Ribery's passing route. The French had to choose to shoot this time.
No.801 minutes, Inzaghi ushered in the first shot after coming off the bench, and it was still a cross. Kakara went to the wing to cooperate with Cafu, and finally the latter made a low pass from the wing to the goal.
Inzaghi was indeed slippery, and Hierro was already very cautious, but Inzaghi slipped past him, but Cech's performance was as stable as ever, and Inzaghi's shot was finally crushed by Cech.
When the time crossed the [-]s and rushed to the [-]s, AC Milan's offense was obviously more eager, and this is undoubtedly a good thing for Cagliari.
On the contrary, Cagliari played more calmly, and with the lessons learned from the past, Cagliari's players did not dare to be careless.
In the 804th minute, Cagliari almost rewrote the score again. It was Ribery's wing breakthrough. Although the Frenchman did not score in this game, his performance was very exciting. Three of Cagliari's four goals were directly related to him, and two of them were direct assists.
Especially the fourth goal, facing the final goal and the temptation to become the team hero, Ribery actually chose to pass the ball to a teammate in a better position.
It is not even an exaggeration to say that Ribery's assist has directly raised the evaluation of him by all the media and clubs, and he is a superstar who can really be regarded as the core player of the team.
This time, Franck Ribery's assist was still wonderful, with a very beautiful pass from the bottom line, the ball went over the crowd and came to the goal, but unfortunately, it was not Di Natale but Zola who grabbed the point this time.
The fierce battle of more than 80 minutes has exhausted Zola very much. You must know that Zola is the oldest player on the court. He is 64 years old in 39 and is also the oldest player in the history of the Champions League final.
Speaking of which, this final is destined to break many records, such as the fastest goal in the final, the oldest goal scorer in the final, and the oldest player in the final. Of course, there is also the youngest head coach in the final. No, Li Yi should be the oldest head coach in the history of the Champions League, and Li Yi may even become the youngest head coach in the history of the Champions League.
With a slight difference, Zola almost broke the record of the oldest goal scored by his teammate in the opening game. Unfortunately, Zola was a little slower due to excessive physical exertion, watching the opportunity slip away from him.
"There is not much time left for AC Milan." After Zola's shot, it will not exceed 10 minutes including stoppage time.
Substitution, Ancelotti replaced a striker, Danish striker Thomason, so AC Milan is the four forwards, and was replaced by midfielder Gattuso.
However, a football game does not mean that there are more forwards to win the final victory, especially Ancelotti's two substitutions. Although Seedorf's performance is average, he can connect the midfield and support Kaka, not to mention Gattuso. He is the key to whether AC Milan can stand upright.
Therefore, after Gattuso left the field, there was only one Pirlo left in the midfield, and it seemed difficult to support AC Milan's offense.
"It's messed up It's messed up Ancelotti's heart is in a mess, his substitution is almost announcing the final result of AC Milan's game."
Pirlo is unable to organize an effective offense alone, and Cagliari has no troubles in this regard, and with a two-goal lead, Cagliari has no need to worry at all.
Soon, the referee announced stoppage time, 4 minutes, and the referee from Spain gave AC Milan the last 4 minutes.
For the AC Milan people, this time is so short, but for the Cagliari people, 4 minutes is so long, as long as a century.
But this did not prevent the celebration of the Cagliari fans in the stands. After the time entered stoppage time, the Cagliari fans had begun to sing "We are the champions".
At the same time, almost everyone believes that this game is over, and there will be no more suspense about the ownership of the championship, even if AC Milan has not given up.
But in fact, there is really no suspense in this game. Although AC Milan had a shot in 4 minutes of stoppage time, there was no threat at all.
When the referee began to look at his watch frequently, and when the referee put the whistle on his mouth, the AC Milan people were completely desperate.
Are you satisfied with this final?
