Starting with Real Madrid kicking the midfielder

Chapter 60 Out of the Champions League

"We won!!! To hell with the Neapolitans! Forza milan!!!"

Boateng's genuine cheers after the game put smiles on the faces of all Milan players.

They were already physically exhausted, but they were still full of energy and devoted themselves to the celebration.

Li Ang even received "warm care" from his teammates one after another.

There is no way, his performance today on both ends of the offense and defense is too explosive!

The pass and shot made great achievements, especially the interception and forward drive at the end of the game. The through pass was too beautiful and unexpected.

Pato still thinks that Li Ang was able to pass the ball, which is simply unbelievable.

In the Milan team, perhaps only Pirlo is really clear now, in fact, Li Ang already has the ability to send this kind of threatening pass.

It is not very stable yet, and the requirements for timing are relatively harsh.

But Li Ang's short passing technique has been practiced enough for Pirlo to say "good".

In other words, Li Ang has a technical foundation, but he used it too little before and was very unskilled, so now he seems to be a bit "nervous".

When Li Ang can transform this "nervous knife" through technique into his regular skills, then the external media's evaluation of Li Ang may reach another level.

However, according to Pirlo's growth forecast for Li Ang, if Li Ang wants to master this kind of through skill in counterattack, I am afraid that he will have to hone it for another season or two.

After all, the gap between entry to mastery of a technology is much larger than laymen imagine.

It can only be slowly grinded by a lot of competition and training time.

To put it on other young players, Pirlo may extend this mastery time to three or four seasons.

But Leon?
Pirlo couldn't help but shook his head with a smile when he thought of Li Ang, who usually felt uncomfortable without extra training.

This kid, one or two seasons is enough!
"After playing Naples, we will play Inter Milan, and then we can wait to win the championship early!"

Pato threw himself on Li Ang's back and cheered optimistically to his teammates.

Distance and Inter Milan are playing against each other for the second time this season. In fact, there are two difficult opponents, Juventus and Palermo, in the middle.

But at the moment, the Milan generals are full of confidence.

Not to mention that the winning streak can go on all the way, but at least Uncle Jiong said before that "unbeaten in the second half".

Milan currently has enough strength and confidence to do it.

Li Ang listened to the excitement of the fans, looked at the excited teammates in front of him, and finally swallowed the phrase "there is still a Champions League game" in his stomach.

This will say that the Champions League is also adding to everyone's obstacles.

In addition, he himself can only watch the game at home, and can't do anything else, so it's better not to mention this matter.

That night, Gattuso and Ambrosini, who was still recovering from his injuries, invited all members of Milan's first team to a private restaurant in the city to celebrate their success.

During the banquet, the bosses drank some drinks, but Li Ang ordered a pinch of freshly squeezed orange juice out of place.

However, his "consciousness" made the veterans nod with satisfaction.

Looking at Pato, who was already hooking shoulders with Big Boateng and having a drink, the bosses could only sigh and shake their heads.

Ambrosini, the veteran captain of Milan, also had a good impression on Li Ang. He treated people very kindly and didn't put on airs.

It's just that Maldini couldn't come because of something that day, otherwise Li Ang would have to ask the Cavaliers for an autograph, and by the way, ask for advice on how to complete the shovel and retain the ball more gracefully.

Well, he has been greedy for this defensive skill for a long time, and now he has learned some fur with Nesta.

If you really want to talk about the chicness of defense, you have to look at Milan's real boss Maldini.

However, during the conversation after the dinner, Li Ang also encountered a difficult thing.

A difficult thing that he had to face sooner or later.

After the old captain Ambrosini asked about Li Ang's life in Milan, he straightforwardly asked Li Ang if he would like to transfer from Real Madrid to Milan.

To be honest, Li Ang was a little flustered at first.

But when he remembered the call Mourinho had made to him some time ago, his mind gradually calmed down again.

In the end, Li Ang gave Ambrosini a smooth answer of "I still have a four-year contract with Real Madrid. If Milan can negotiate with Real Madrid, then I have no problem".

Ambrosini is very satisfied, maybe he just asked casually, or maybe he is the "mouthpiece" of Milan's top management.

But to Li Ang, none of this mattered.

The important thing is that Real Madrid's current head coach is Mourinho, and Mourinho is his direct boss, that's enough.

Real Madrid will not be willing to discuss this transfer deal with Milan, because Li Ang believes that Mourinho will not agree.

When leaving the dining place, Li Ang subconsciously looked back at the dimly lit night scene of Milan City.

It's actually pretty good here.

Whether it is the team, fans, or city construction.

all good.

However, it is inappropriate after all.

The Milan dynasty that could satisfy the ambitions of any young player in the past has disappeared with the wind.

Li Ang turned his head and drove away.

Headed to a place of residence far away from the city center.

No hesitation.

There is no looking back.

"Pity"

※※※

On the morning of March 3st, almost all of the sports newspapers in Italy were covered with Li Ang's handsome face making a "mask-wearing" celebratory gesture.

In the battle against Naples, Li Ang became the most shining key figure on the field.

He performed extremely well on both offense and defense, and finally helped Milan defeat Naples with a pass and shot.

Li Ang slapped his face in front of all Italian fans in the most shocking way!

He looks handsome and plays hard. Don't look at the few goals, all of them are key goals!
Li Ang, who played tough, immediately gained another wave of popularity in Italy, which advocates defense.

And Milan didn't dare to delay any longer, and directly approached Real Madrid to discuss Li Ang's contract buyout.

But there is no need for Li Ang to worry about this aspect.

If there are changes that are not "expected", Mendes will contact him.

As always, he chose to practice alone during the vacation time.

Because after playing Juventus, the Milan team will embark on an away trip to London for the Champions League knockout round.

At that time, he can rest for two more days, so there is no need to care about the physical consumption at this time.

As long as it is controlled a little, it will not affect the performance of the game against Juventus.

It's not that Li Ang underestimated the former overlord of Serie A.

But today's Juventus is about the same strength as Palermo or Genoa, ranking in the middle and upper reaches of Serie A.

At best, it can be regarded as a difficult league opponent, but if it is said to pose too much threat to Milan, it is still not enough.

Allegri is obviously not too afraid of Juventus.

Before the start of the second leg of the Champions League knockout round against Tottenham, he lined up a rotation of players to start at the Olimpico Stadium on the outskirts of Turin.

This is the temporary home court before the opening of the new Juventus stadium, which usually can only accommodate 7000 people to watch the game.

For Juventus's huge local fan base, it is still very easy to fill up the stadium on weekdays.

So Milan fans only got more than 3000 away tickets this time.

In a slightly smaller stadium, Juventus fans caused some trouble for Milan with their loud cheers and home power.

At least the cycling prince who started today got lost again.

I don't know whether it was the crazy boos of the Juventus fans that made him a little weak, or he really couldn't do anything about his compatriot Melo.

After controlling the attacking ball but failing to achieve anything in the half, he was decisively replaced by Allegri at half-time.

Ibrahimovic, who took up the offensive banner temporarily, and Cassano, who was tortured by Robinho for 45 minutes before, finally cooperated smoothly.

Milan also changed the situation in which the offensive players fought on their own in the first half.

With Ibrahimovic organizing the attack in the frontcourt, Boateng and Cassano became more and more active, and Li Ang also got several good opportunities to attack forward.

Finally, in the No.703 minute of the second half, Ibrahimovic received a cross from Cassano's penalty area and smashed the ball away from Barzagli, getting Milan's best shot chance of the game!
Buffon is in excellent form today, having already saved Milan's six-footed shot within the range of the goal frame.

This time, he still firmly blocked Ibrahimovic's low shot to the limit!

But in the face of Cassano's follow-up shot, Buffon was powerless and could only watch Milan take the lead at their home court!
When there were only about 10 minutes left in the game, the balance on the field was broken by Milan, and the entire Juventus team suffered a serious morale blow.

Originally, they thought they could have a draw at home, but in fact they almost did it.

It lasted a full 73 minutes!

Milan scored a goal at the last moment, and the red-eyed Juventus players were naturally unwilling.

But this time Allegri will not give them a chance.

Flamini and Cassano were removed, and Boateng and Van Bommel were replaced.

After the decisive two-up and two-down substitutions, Milan put up a three-back midfielder, which can even be regarded as a four-back midfielder.

Li Ang and Van Bommel were in the middle, and the two teamed up to seal the middle of the midfield, forcing Juventus to pass from the side at the last moment, or play a long pass directly from the backcourt.

But this kind of offensive efficiency is really too low, and Nesta and Thiago Silva, who are in good condition, did not give Tony too many opportunities to grab points.

After forcibly grinding away the last trace of Juventus' attack time, Milan finally got their wish and won another league thorn before the arrival of the Champions League game!
The winning streak continued, and Milan's dominance in Serie A was further consolidated.

After being demoralized by Milan, Naples was tied by Brescia in the last round. The current point difference with Milan has been widened to [-] points!
Inter Milan and Milan, which have won two consecutive victories recently, still have a [-]-point difference.

In other words, with the last ten rounds left in the league, even if Inter Milan continues to bite Milan's tail and maintain a complete victory.

Milan also only needs to win six more league rounds to win the Serie A championship this season ahead of schedule!

After more than six years of absence, Milan is really only a stone's throw away from the Serie A championship trophy!

However, before the actual launch of the league sprint, there is still a hurdle waiting for Milan to work hard to cross.

On March 3, apart from Li Ang, the main players of Milan's first team followed Allegri to embark on the Champions League journey again.

This time Milan has made more adequate preparations. Whether it is on the defensive end or on the offensive end, Milan's players also have the psychological expectation to do their best.

On the evening of March 3th, the second round of the UEFA Champions League round of one-eighth knockout was rekindled.

Milan face Tottenham for the second time this season at White Hart Lane.

Faced with a fully contracted formation, Tottenham, which made it clear that they must use defense to securely advance, Milan played very aggressively.

After all, with no way out, no matter how conservative Allegri is, he can only focus on how to break Tottenham's goal as soon as possible.

So the fans of the two teams at White Hart Lane witnessed a thrilling offensive and defensive battle.

Milan relied on Ibrahimovic to continue to make offensive articles.

Let Pato cut in from the ribs to catch Ibrahimovic and hit the goal. Cassano tried to make a strong flank after Ibrahimovic attracted defensive players, and Boateng frequently inserted long shots.

It can be said that at this stage Allegri can think of all the offensive routines that the players on the Milan field can use, and they have been used in tonight's battle.

But helplessly, Tottenham defended too resolutely, and Michael Dawson played too well, so he defended the goal tightly in the halftime without losing.

In the second half, Milan continued to deploy troops and replaced Pato with Inzaghi in two minutes.

But Tottenham also replaced Van der Vaart with Bell, and the intention of using counterattacks to deter Milan's defense is obvious.

Uncle Jiong made a difficult decision. He watched Bell continue to ravage Gattuso with speed on the wing, and finally missed the final adjustment opportunity in hesitation.

After all, Milan, who was too stable, lost the courage to stab each other with Tottenham.

In other words, Milan's current lineup is indeed not suitable for competing with young and strong teams for speed and strength.

An anticlimactic 0-0 declared the end of Milan's Champions League journey this season.

However, most of the Milan fans are actually relieved while feeling uncomfortable.

Without the fetters of the Champions League, Milan can finally put all their minds on the remaining Serie A games and the Coppa Italia.

The three-line battle has become two-line, and the task has become easier. Milan has also entered the final four of the Coppa Italia, and there are at most three cup games left to play.

Handled well, this season Milan won the Italian domestic double, which can be regarded as a great success.

The Milan players who were also relieved in the discomfort also quickly adjusted their mentality.

After returning to Italy, he devoted himself to preparing for the No.20 nine-round league match against Bari non-stop.

At this moment, they have no time to pay attention to the state of their city rivals Inter Milan.

Now they just want to play steadily and win one game at a time.

Win to the end and win the Serie A title they most want to recapture!
