Chapter 181 Move like a rabbit
To be honest, he just wanted to encourage Ronaldo. In fact, although this Milan is a little older, it is definitely not as simple as a classic car. Every position of theirs is the world's top configuration, even if some positions are a little older.
"Kaka?" In the player's passage, Ronaldo's eyes shone with light, and his eyes remained on the handsome Kaka.
Kaka, 22, stood in the crowd, was so dazzling. He smiled and chatted with Rui Costa, and didn't look nervous at all.
In the past two seasons, Kaka is undoubtedly the most popular player in the Serie A arena. Kaka, the 22-year-old Kaka, wearing No. 22, is like a mountain that Ronaldo looks up to. You can see Kaka's news almost every day in the English media newspapers. On the contrary, Messi, who has not yet stood out in the team, has little reports, so Ronaldo's impression of Kaka is even deeper at this time.
"I heard that he is the most popular player candidate in the Serie A field this year." Ronaldo licked his tongue, a little envious. It is a huge honor for a 22-year-old player to become the best player candidate. At least he is 20 years old now, he seems to have nothing to do with this.
Dong Fangzhuo's eyes just stayed on Kaka's body for a moment before moving away because there were many people in the player channel that made him very excited. Kaka was excellent, but others made him even more dazzling.
Rui Costa, Crespo, Martini, Pirlo, Sidorf, Gattuso, Nesta... What a beautiful lineup.
It seems that every Milan player's face is full of ease, just coming here to play an ordinary game, not the Champions League quarterfinals. On the contrary, Manchester United players' faces are very serious, and the mentality of both sides is obviously not on the same level. Milan players have seen too many big scenes than Manchester United players, and Keane is no exception.
Dream Theater is actually a blessed land in Milan. In the 2002-2003 season, the year before yesterday, they won the sixth Big Ear Cup here. The opponent is Juventus, the old domestic rival. This time they come back, maybe they feel that their luck will be the same as last time.
Friendly Manchester United fans did not boo to Milan players when they appeared because it was a team worthy of respect for anyone. Even Stam received applause from Manchester United fans. Manchester United fans were not stingy with their applause for former Manchester United players who had achieved brilliant results at Manchester United.
Stam's old face was also full of happiness, but he didn't expect that he had just run a few steps and found himself injured!
An inexplicable tragedy came like this. Could it be that this is the punishment for his departure from the Dream Theater? Otherwise, how could such a sad joke be made?
Fortunately, Ancelotti's men never lacked defenders. He immediately replaced him with Brazilian Cafo. The game has not officially started yet. This is not considered a substitution. This is also a blessing in disgrace.
Of course, it is definitely a very lucky thing for Dong Fangzhuo and Rooney.
Dong Fangzhuo and Rooney looked at each other and both smiled.
No, because Kafu is not fast and likes to assist, and Stam is tall and big, and his style is tough and rough, and he is even more difficult to deal with. Stam cannot start, so it is naturally only beneficial and not harmful to them.
Dong Fangzhuo and Rooney don’t think Kafu can pose much threat to their defense!
There is a chance!
Both of them have the same answer.
Before the game, Ferguson made a very detailed tactical arrangement for them. However, in the eyes of Dong Fangzhuo and Rooney, no matter how detailed the tactics are, it seems that it is even more difficult to find shooting space for Stam, Nesta, Maldini and Karaze.
Not to mention, in front of these four people, there was a butcher Gattuso who was sweeping and protecting him. This guy's courage was comparable to Keane. Just looking at his appearance was so scary.
Although several people kept nodding their heads, they actually had no confidence. Now that Kafu, who is 34 years old, naturally adds more confidence to them.
But they obviously thought it was too simple. The reason why Milan is boundlessly powerful is not just because of Kafu or Stam...
The final starting lineup of both sides is:
Manchester United (4-3-3): Carol; Gary Neville, Ferdinand, Brown, Heinzer; Keane, Fletcher, Scholes, Rooney, C Ronaldo; Dong Fangzhuo. AC Milan (4-3-2-1): Dida; Cafo, Nesta, Martini, Carlaze; Gattuso, Pirlo, Siddorf, Kaka, Costa; Crespo.
Snowflakes are floating in Old Trafford, and AC Milan is wearing a full white jersey, as if it is hidden in the air.
After the game started, Manchester United immediately felt the strong pressure from Milan, because Milan's control ability in the midfield was too strong.
The midfield dominated by Seedorf, Gattuso, Pirlo, Kaka and Rui Costa do not give Manchester United any chance!
Fortunately, Milan does not like Premier League teams, like oppressing offense, otherwise Manchester United's defense will definitely be even more uncomfortable.
Milan now does not play absolute speed, but plays midfield control. No matter how Manchester United players toss, they play their own in the midfield, and the rhythm is never at the feet of Manchester United, and they have always been controlled by them.
Rooney and Ronaldo rushed back and forth like headless flies on both sides, trying to break the ball under the Milan player's feet. But they were working useless countless times.
Dong Fangzhuo felt the powerful aura behind him, and I wonder if it was because of his mentality...
Behind him are Nesta and Maldini, two God-like defenders.
The elegant Nesta and the cold Maldini were by his side all the time, especially Nesta, which was like a strong storm, and his surroundings were full of Nesta's figure. He could feel the calmness and calmness of the two of them, as if as long as the ball came over or if he held the ball, there was only one ending, which was a tragedy.
However, Manchester United was the first to get the opportunity. In the first 3 minutes, Kaka dribbled too much in the middle and finally gave the ball to Manchester United. Manchester United didn't dare to play slowly with Milan like this. Keane directly sent it to Scholes. Scholes stopped the ball in the middle, and a spike changed direction and broke through Seidorf. Then he rushed to shoot with his right foot 27 meters in front of the goal...
It seems that even ginger-headed Scholes felt huge pressure, and the shots were all done hastily, but the ball naturally missed the right post.
Then Milan immediately returned with his color. In the 4th minute, Siddorf interrupted Ronaldo's ball from the middle and made the side. Crespo passed the ball with his heel. Rui Costa shot with his right foot from 16 meters away from the goal on the right side of the penalty area and missed the far post.
In the 5th minute, Seedorf passed Kaka directly from the middle, and Kaka almost broke through Ferdinand's defense in the middle.
In the 6th minute, Gary Neville fouled against Kaka, allowing Milan to get a good free kick opportunity on the left side of the penalty area.
The young Kaka began to show his strength in the game. Ronaldo and others still seemed very anxious and uneasy.
Seidorf stepped on the left and got his right free kick and hit the upper edge of the crossbar. Almost a little, Milan rewritten the score on the field!
"In front of Milan, Manchester United players are like elementary school students..."
"It's dangerous to keep kicking like this. Even veteran Scholes and others seem timid and unable to kick it away." Leinkell expressed his concerns about Manchester United.
But the ball had already been opened. After captain Keane received the ball, he simply kicked the ball to the frontcourt. This time he did not pass it to Scholes, but to Dong Fangzhuo.
In order to win more opportunities to get the ball, Dong Fangzhuo decisively ran to the left and stayed away from Nesta and Maldini's middle defense. He didn't think he had the ability to kill Nesta and Maldini at the same time, and even if he had the ability to fight one of them alone!
But Kafu, he was sure of it. Kafu has many small movements and is a little older as a full-back. He just rushed forward to assist. Dong Fangzhuo would not miss such an opportunity.
Dong Fangzhuo calmly unloaded the ball in front of him while running, and protected one side with his body, preventing Kafu from rushing over to grab the ball directly.
Kafu almost ran to the left with Dong Fangzhuo, but when Kafu approached Dong Fangzhuo, he really stretched out his claws, which were still very hidden. At the same time, his body tilted towards Dong Fangzhuo, trying to make Dong Fangzhuo lose his body balance through some hidden small movements.
But he was thinking too much.
Before his left hand touched Dong Fangzhuo, Dong Fangzhuo was like a rabbit suddenly frightened...
Move like a rabbit!
His legs seemed to be equipped with springs, and suddenly rushed forward, instantly escaping from Kafu's claw range.
Fark!
So fast?
