Chapter 022 Milan Debut
~.-~ The Milan fans in the stands were thunderous.
The commentator was also praising Zhang Yang's goal.
"Zhang Yang scored a goal, and this goal came at the right time. This was AC Milan's first goal in the warm-up match this season, and it was also Zhang Wei Milan's first goal. He scored in his debut. It was a wonderful start."
"Zhang Yang's goal, a beautiful goal, he once again allowed us to see his explosive power. Lucio should be responsible for this conceding. He is too arrogant. Didn't he realize how powerful an opponent he is facing?"
Seeing Zhang Yang scored a goal, Milan fans and some neutral fans who came to watch his game cheered him. At this moment, someone in the stands finally relaxed.
This person is Galliani, the vice chairman of AC Milan. Maybe Zhang Yang didn't know that his introduction had caused huge controversy within the top management of AC Milan. Leonardo strongly opposed it. Leonardo was committed to introducing Ronaldinho, believing that that was the emperor superstar who was truly worthy of Milan. In addition, Berlusconi also tended to Ronaldinho and regarded Ronaldinho as Milan's true destiny.
However, Galliani and Braida were staunch players in introducing Zhang Yang. In particular, Galliani, in order to persuade Berlusconi to agree to the signing, even issued a military order in front of Berlusconi, guaranteeing that Zhang Yang would make contributions to AC Milan.
Therefore, Galliani is so concerned about Zhang Yang's performance. Zhang Yang's performance is good, which proves that his vision is not a problem. Otherwise, he will also bear pressure and accountability from Berlusconi.
So, at this moment, seeing Zhang Yang appearing on the bench in his first appearance in Milan, and he scored a goal in just a few minutes after he appeared, Galliani seemed extremely happy.
This proves that his vision is correct, isn't it?
Galliani stood up and cheered and applauded Zhang Yang's goal.
Bayern Munich coach Heathfield was also furious. He roared at Lucio on the sidelines, "Lucio, what are you doing? Do I need me to replace you and calm down?"
Of course, Heathfield knew Lucio's virtues, and everyone could guess Lucio's thoughts at that time. The Brazilian planned to stop the ball and dribble the ball into the offense. The idea was good. However, as a central defender, the most important thing is to protect the safety of the penalty area and the goal, and to decisively eliminate the threat. At that time, the most correct way was to top the ball to his teammates, or simply destroy the football from the sideline, rather than being a hero on the offensive end in his dream. This is the safest way that the central defender should choose.
Although the Brazilian didn't hear the head coach's roar clearly, he must have known that there was nothing good to say. His face was extremely ugly. He planned to teach this young man who was in the limelight a lesson recently, but unexpectedly he was embarrassed.
Lucio didn't hear Heathfield clearly, but the Brazilians must have heard Kahn's roar next.
"Lucio, do you know what you're doing? You're the center back, damn it, I don't want you to see you being played with by that kid again." Kahn snarled.
Lucio turned his head to look at the angry captain, trying to speak, but he didn't know how to defend himself. In fact, it was his responsibility to lose the ball. In addition, in the face of Kahn's roar, no one in the entire Bayern Munich team dared to refute that the title of "The Lion King" was not hyped.
Lucio looked at Zhang Yang, who was celebrating the goal with a smug chewing, and he got angry, very angry.
I have to say that Lucio, who is at ease with his job as a center back, is indeed one of the best central defenders on this planet.
In the next game, Zhang Yang realized the power of this big man.
After Zhang Yang scored a goal, AC Milan's morale boosted and its offense began to improve.
Zhang Yang received a pass from Gattuso again, and he faced Lucio again. This time, the place where the two met was a little outside the penalty area.
Zhang Yang was fiddling with football under his feet, and he had just "tortured" Lucio once, which made Zhang Yang very proud. He even began to show off his footwork.
Zhang Yang's footwork has made great progress compared to two years ago.
Several bicycles were cycling in a row.
However, Lucio was unmoved. His stance may have been good. However, for Lucio, a Brazilian player, he has never taken the skills of Brazilian players dancing on stamps.
Just as Zhang Yang pushed the ball and was about to use his explosion speed to suddenly accelerate the breakthrough, Lucio made a foot, a very standard tackle that broke the football out of the sideline, ending AC Milan's attack.
Heathfield on the sidelines nodded, that's right. Lucio's defense this time reflects the solid basic skills of this Brazilian central defender. He is not moved by the opponent's foot skills. He waits for the opportunity to play. When the opponent moves, he uses his quick footing to destroy the ball the moment the opponent wants to pass. If this is not possible, use his body to block the opponent's offensive line. This is the reason.
Zhang Yang's next few breakthroughs were destroyed by Lucio.
Although Lucio did not intercept the ball, for the offensive side, every time it was destroyed, it was equivalent to losing a chance for the entire team to attack.
Zhang Yang began to feel a little impatient, and his complacent just now made him a little obsessed.
When facing Lucio again, Zhang Yang did not slow down and tried to break through Lucio with a change of speed. The moment Zhang Yang wanted to pass, Lucio quickly stepped up and pushed Zhang Yang aside, and at the same time stole the ball.
Zhang Yang staggered to reach out to hook Lucio's ankle, but this big man who was about 1.9 meters tall was as strong as a lion. Zhang Yang didn't hook him. Lucio drove the ball forward and rushed over Zhang Yang's side.
Bayern Munich fans in the stands were thunderous. Heathfield on the sidelines also smiled with satisfaction, but the old coach then cursed the German curse again.
Because Lucio was obviously very proud, after intercepting the ball from Zhang Yang's feet, the guy dribbled the ball forward, first breaking through Ambrosini, and then tried to swivel over Gattuso with Marseille, and was decisively knocked down by Gattuso.
The referee blew a whistle and gave Gatuso a yellow card. However, the "Milan Butcher" didn't care at all. He didn't even look at Lucio lying on the ground and ran away. In fact, Gatuso was a little annoyed. If the football could be cut off from Lucio's feet and passed it to Zhang Yang just now, it would be another good opportunity.
What Gattuso thought was exactly what Heathfield was worried about. He had just scolded Lucio, but this guy had changed for more than ten minutes and had an old problem again.
I don’t know if Heathfield has heard a saying that it is easy to change the country and nature is hard to change.
After Zhang Yang was intercepted by Lucio from his feet, he turned around and watched the Brazilian dribbling forward with a proud dribbling, which made Zhang Yang very angry.
However, Zhang Yang smiled.
It is necessary for us to repeatedly analyze the character characteristics of this young man. Zhang Yang is very proud, confident, and is more likely to be angered. However, he is not the kind of person who will be temporarily passively stimulated to lose his mind. The stronger the enemy is, the more excited Zhang Yang will be.
He won once in the PK with Lucio and scored that goal. Now, during this period, he has been suppressed by Lucio, which makes Zhang Yang more motivated, and such an opponent will make Zhang Yang more motivated.
This is also the terrifying thing about the ostentatiousness. For a Sagittarius, this quality is more precious than anything else.
As the game progressed and time passed, although AC Milan improved in offense, Zhang Yang gave Milan a clear goal in offense and his performance was also very active. However, after more than 80 minutes of the game, Zhang Yang was unable to continue scoring, and the score on the court was still one-to-two, AC Milan lagged behind Bayern Munich.
In the 83rd minute, AC Milan made a substitution and Pirlo was replaced. Milan's brain was injured in a fight with Ram just now. Although she could still hold on to the game, if the injury was serious in such a warm-up match, it would be unpaid. Therefore, Ancelotti replaced Pirlo for safety, and he replaced Brokey.
The team's brain was replaced and a engineer-type midfielder was replaced.
In addition, Sidorf was replaced due to injury. Now, Milan's midfielders are Gattuso, Ambrosini, Brokie, Emerson and Gurkuf. The first four are engineer-type midfielders, and it is impossible to expect them to organize the midfielders well. Gurkuf, the former "Zidane successor" performed mediocrely and has never been able to meet people's expectations for him. Today's game also performed averagely.
Therefore, in the eyes of many people, Ancelotti's substitution is almost equivalent to admitting that he failed in this game.
However, this is nothing. It's just a warm-up match. Although Ancelotti will also bear the pressure of losing two consecutive games in the warm-up match, Zhang Yang's goal successfully alleviated this pressure. Milan's largest signing so far this summer has used this goal to initially prove his value to everyone. This will be the focus of media talks about and pay attention after the game. The impact of Milan's two consecutive losses has been relatively weakened.
So, as the media speculated, Ancelotti has indeed given up on the game, just a warm-up match. If Pirlo is still placed on the field and the wounded soldiers are in the end, it will not be worth it.
AC Milan head coach Ancelotti has given up on the game and accepted the failed result.
However, some people didn't give up.
Zhang Yang is still running tirelessly in the frontcourt, looking for opportunities to score goals!
Not giving up until the last moment is his creed.
