The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 700 Goal: Triple Crown
Alba's pass was not high, flat and fast, and it was launched when AC Milan's defense was moving, so it quickly bypassed Mex and landed behind the French central defender. In the middle of Nesta's defense zone, while Messi rushed up quickly from the middle of the two, leaping high.

At this moment, under the background of Nesta, who was caught off guard, and Mex, who reacted and rushed to predict the ball's landing point, leaped high, shook his head to meet the falling ball, With a reverse, Abbiati, who was pounced on the right side of the goal, completely missed the goal and crashed into the goal.

1:0!Lore! ! !

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"No.709 minutes, another goal in the second half, Tottenham Hotspur finally broke through AC Milan's goal after maintaining the advantage for an hour, a header from Messi!!!"

The entire San Siro stadium screamed amidst the turbulent waves. All Milan fans were surprised by this sudden goal. AC Milan coach Allegri was very dissatisfied and yelled at Nesta, obviously I feel that the Italian central defender did not keep a good eye on Messi.

"AC Milan have a problem between the two centre-backs, they shouldn't have had a little Messi getting a header between them, it's really wrong, but Nesta also looks very impatient , opened his arms, and fought back angrily at Allegri, the rumors that the two have a disagreement seem to be true!"

"Judging from the slow-motion replay of the game, Tottenham Hotspur attacked the right before and attracted AC Milan's defensive attention, but suddenly shifted to the left through Pirlo's oblique long pass, and Alba inserted and passed. In the whole process, AC Milan's defense was indeed a bit too slow in reacting, but it should be said that Nesta's responsibility is not great."

At that time, Nesta was on the right side of Messi. This was the position when he defended the cross from the right just now, and it could help Antonini to defend. It should be said that Nesta attacked on the right side of Tottenham Hotspur It was solid and there was no problem, but the point was when Tottenham moved from the right to the left, there was a problem.

"Mex made a misjudgment, with Abarth already back in time, when Alba made a cross, he gave the impression that as soon as the ball went over his head, it wasn't him. The responsibility should belong to the teammates behind him, but if he stepped back immediately at this time, with his height and jumping ability, he could grab the header before Messi, but he didn't."

"Of course, Nesta also made a mistake. When the opponent changed his attacking direction, he didn't make adjustments and responses immediately. Maybe it was because of his body. After all, in the first 10 minutes of this game, his The performance is indeed quite eye-catching, but the mistake this time is indeed a bit undeserved!"

The Tottenham Hotspur players celebrated wildly on the sidelines, especially for Pirlo, who made two consecutive precise diagonal diagonal passes to Ribery and Alba respectively. It happened very suddenly, causing AC Milan's defense line to loosen and loopholes during the transfer, and then seized the opportunity.

While all the Tottenham Hotspur players were celebrating and hugging, the AC Milan fans in the stands seemed very disappointed, because they knew very well that if Tottenham Hotspur took away a victory at home, then They couldn't believe how difficult it was to make a comeback in an away game.

Especially many AC Milan fans are looking at Pirlo on the court, the core soul they once loved and supported, but now they put on the opponent's jersey and appeared on the San Siro court, and relying on their own precise The long pass came to create murderous intent, and they felt very painful and helpless.

Is this a kind of revenge for Allegri and Galliani?

The live footage of the Champions League was also specially shown to Galliani in the business seat. The latter lowered his head in embarrassment, avoiding the live broadcast, leaving only his iconic bald head, making it impossible to see what he is doing now. Thinking about something.

There is no doubt that Pirlo is the key figure in the team's goal this time!

The game ended with Tottenham Hotspur beating AC Milan 1-0 in the away field. Milan's promotion has cast a shadow. Everyone knows that it is very, very difficult to beat Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane.

At the press conference after the game, Allegri expressed his confidence in the team's away win and qualification for promotion. He said that the away game will be difficult, but the team will win the opponent with the belief of winning.

"I know that White Hart Lane is called by many people as an unbeatable devil's away game, but I believe that there will be a first time in everything. We will go all out to beat our opponents away. We have no other choice. We want to advance. That's the only way to do it!"

As for the reporter's suggestion that Pirlo, who performed well in this game, Allegri gave a high evaluation for the first time, "Messi's header is very exciting, and our central defender made a mistake in defense." Unforgivable mistake, but more importantly, Pirlo made a threat with many passes in the game."

"He is the most outstanding passer in today's football. His passing is accurate to the centimeter. There are few people in today's football. This ensures that Pirlo can always create a threat in the game. Although we decided at the beginning Let him leave AC Milan, but we never question his ability, he is a great player!"

Allegri's remarks are also considered to be a statement similar to an apology. I believe that this will be accused and regretted by countless AC Milan fans after the game, because if there is no Pirlo, I believe this game Tot It is difficult for Nam Tottenham to get out of the away game.

Ye Qiu was also full of praise for Pirlo's performance, but he never mentioned the grievances and entanglements between Pirlo, AC Milan and Allegri. He only said that Pirlo was at the peak of his career.

"I know a lot of people are doubting Pirlo's age, but I want to say that he is at his peak, and if we look at the performance of the past season, it is not difficult to see that his age is not the reason for his outstanding performance. Obstacles, on the contrary, he has done a good job at this point, I think he can continue to play."

As for why he rejected all opinions a year ago and introduced Pirlo, who everyone thought would go downhill, and many people even judged that he might retire, Ye Qiu smiled and said that he was also very surprised by Pirlo's performance. "But I never doubted that he was a great star, so I always believed that he would be the type of player that the team needs!"

In another game played at the same time as Tottenham Hotspur, Barcelona beat Benfica 1-0 away, which also made Barcelona's promotion bright. Many people even began to speculate that if there is no accident in the Champions League semi-finals If so, it should be Tottenham Hotspur vs Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid vs Bayern Munich.

As for which of the four teams can successfully advance to the final and win the championship, no one is sure. Tottenham Hotspur's undefeated record looks dazzling, but it really shows that in a matchup of this level in the Champions League. no problem.

…………

…………

After the San Siro game, Tottenham Hotspur returned to the hotel from San Siro. After packing up, they will return to London overnight, because they have a Premier League No.30 round matchup on Saturday afternoon, and next week It is the second leg of the UEFA Champions League against AC Milan at home.

As the head coach of the team, Ye Qiu was going to attend the post-match press conference. When he finished the press conference and came out, he happened to see Pirlo and Nesta talking in the player tunnel, and Alai When Gerry passed in front of them, he just greeted Pirlo politely, and then passed.

From this subtle detail, it is not difficult to find that there is indeed a contradiction between him and Nesta, and it is an irreconcilable contradiction, and it is almost certain that Nesta will leave the team in summer.

"Hello, Alessandro!" Ye Qiu walked over and shook hands with Nesta.

"Hello, Mr. Ye Qiu!" Nesta was also very polite, "Although they are opponents, Tottenham Hotspur played a wonderful game!"

"Thank you, it's all thanks to your good friend!" Ye Qiu looked at Pirlo and said with a smile.

The relationship between Ye Qiu and Pirlo is relatively average, not very deep, because Pirlo is not a very sociable type, he can be regarded as an inner show type, but he and Ye Qiu maintain a very friendly exchange and communication , and the same is true for Nesta, so when Ye Qiu intervened, they had nothing to say.

"I heard you're going to Juventus?" Of course Ye Qiu knew that his appearance had become a light bulb between the good friends, but he had his own ideas and goals.

"No!" Nesta shook his head. He is very clear that there are rumors outside that the contract renewal negotiations between him and AC Milan have broken down. The reason is also Allegri, and his most likely destination is Juventus. Si and Lazio, but there is also news that AC Milan does not want Nesta to strengthen the strength of the league competitors.

Of course, how strong the 36-year-old Nesta can still play, and whether he has the ability to continue to play in the top league, this is also a question, after all, not every player can become Maldini of.

"I don't have an agent at the moment, and Juventus has never had any contact with me, so I don't have any preparations for the summer situation, but I don't rule out staying in the team!" Nesta said with a light attitude .

After Ye Qiu heard this, he chuckled, nodded and said, "Then why don't you think about our Tottenham Hotspur!"

After he finished speaking, Ye Qiu didn't intend to continue. What he said sounded like he was joking, but he didn't intend to explain. After apologizing to the two of them, Ye Qiu left and went to the locker room.

Seeing Ye Qiu's leaving back, Nesta waited until he walked into the dressing room before looking at his friend, "Really?"

Of course Pirlo knew what Nesta meant, thought for a while, shook his head and said: "I don't know, but although Tottenham Hotspur currently have Thiago Silva and Kompany, the latter Occasionally, there will be some mistakes, and Ye Qiu has always believed that he needs to mature and be more stable."

"As for the two young central defenders, Nastasic and Varane have great potential, but they are still unable to cope with the responsibilities of the Champions League. If he considers introducing another central defender, I don't think so at all. Not surprisingly!"

Pirlo said with a smile, although Ye Qiu's words just now confuse him, but he also very much hopes that Nesta can come to London, at least the two of them can have a companion together, and there is another reason he can't say, that It is the study by Theobald Research Center that requires very detailed player data and information.

Perhaps Ye Qiu might bring in Nesta in order to obtain Nesta's data and information, strengthen the team's bench, and provide a few young players in the team with a role model for growth. This is not surprising at all. , and will not lose money, because Nesta will be on a free transfer.

"I feel that my body may not be able to adapt to the fast-paced and intense competitions of the Premier League and the high-intensity competitions of the Champions League. Especially after the serious injury in 2010, I feel that my physical condition has declined very much!" Ness Ta shook his head and sighed.

The most difficult thing for a professional player to face is the fact that he is about to retire. It will make him feel at a loss and feel overwhelmed.

"Meier Seman and Demichelis are both at Theobald Research Center, you know, they have a lot of experience in helping players maintain their shape and fitness, and their skills are now better than when they were in Milan. It's more advanced, and more importantly, they know you well, don't they?" Pirlo said with a smile.

After hearing what Pirlo said, Nesta thought for a while, without nodding or shaking his head, "Let me think about it again!"

Pirlo smiled. He knew that Nesta had let go of what he said, because in today's football, few people can refuse the invitation and temptation from Tottenham Hotspur, because everyone knows that, This is a team that is making history. Nesta once said that if he leaves AC Milan, he hopes to go to a team that can win the championship. He does not want to be looked down upon by Galliani and Allegri , otherwise, he would rather leave Europe, or even retire.

If you join Tottenham Hotspur, it will undoubtedly be a very cost-effective job-hopping.

Pirlo understands his friend's thoughts very well, and he is also very clear about the current situation of Tottenham Hotspur. If Nesta goes to Tottenham Hotspur, it is definitely impossible to be guaranteed as the main force, and more is to serve as the team's Rotational role, and mentor to young players.

But the key issue now is that Nesta let go, and Pirlo has to figure out for his good friend whether what Ye Qiu said just now was sincere, or he just said it casually A joke.

…………

…………

Although Tottenham Hotspur took away a 1-0 victory from the away game, and Pirlo's performance has also won the recognition and appreciation of all fans, there are still many people who are worried that Tottenham Hotspur's game Most of the time, AC Milan was frozen to death, so some people say that AC Milan has found the secret to restraining Tottenham Hotspur.

The day after Tottenham Hotspur defeated AC Milan, Real Madrid beat APOEL 3-0 away, while Bayern Munich beat Marseille 2-0 away. Judging from the scores, the two teams advanced The semi-finals are almost a certainty.

The gap between the strong and the weak in the knockout round of the quarter-finals was quite wide, and there were no surprises. The only suspenseful match was the match between Tottenham Hotspur and AC Milan. Therefore, many people felt that there was almost no suspense in the semi-finals. up.

After Tottenham Hotspur returned to London, they actively prepared for the game and soon ushered in Rodgers' Swansea.

Swansea this season is indeed the team that is second only to Saints Southampton in terms of popularity among newly promoted teams. Rogers' coaching ability has also been fully affirmed, but facing Tottenham Hotspur, Swansea is still not good enough. Have the strength to compete with the Premier League and even the top teams in Europe.

Although Ye Qiu rotated the team's starting lineup for the second round of the Champions League in the middle of the week, Tottenham Hotspur took the lead with Hazard's goal, but Swansea quickly took the lead. Taking advantage of the mistake of the young central defender Nastasic in the backcourt, he scored a goal and equalized the score.

But in the second half, Tottenham Hotspur continued to chase hard. With Cavani's brace, they defeated Swansea 3:1 at home and won another victory, extending their unbeaten record to 81 games, and even hope to win the championship again with an unbeaten record.

However, in this round, Liverpool and Manchester City also defeated their opponents successively. Manchester City bit Tottenham Hotspur tightly, still maintaining a four-point gap behind, but in the following schedule, Tottenham Tottenham no longer has strong opponents, but Manchester City still has strong opponents including Arsenal, West Ham United, Manchester United and Newcastle.

Therefore, many professionals have no hope of whether Manchester City can finally reverse Tottenham Hotspur and snipe the North London team for four consecutive Premier League titles, and the same is true for Liverpool, which will face strong opponents on the same schedule.

After the 31st round of the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur ushered in AC Milan with a full lineup in the middle of the week.

Neither of the two sides dared to be too big, especially Tottenham Hotspur, who played at home, played a round of crazy attack after the opening, and Messi took the lead in knocking on AC Milan's goal in the 7th minute. Gained the lead and expanded the total score to 2:0.

However, AC Milan still adopts a steady counterattack posture, striving to play a threatening counterattack in the game, but Tottenham Hotspur after scoring the lead appears to be more patient.

In the second half, with the goals of Messi and Ramsey, Tottenham defeated AC Milan 3-0, and eliminated the Rossoneri from the quarter-finals of the Champions League with a total score of 4-0, successfully advancing Final Four.

I don't know if this is the first time Tottenham Hotspur scored in the second half this season. Everyone is full of confidence in Tottenham Hotspur's tenacious style and strong desire to win. They think that North London As long as the team continues to maintain the current good momentum, the possibility of winning the Champions League and the Premier League double is still very high.

And Ye Qiu also shouted out loudly for the first time at the press conference after the match against AC Milan that the team will do their best to compete for the Triple Crown!

But no one thought that Tottenham Hotspur suffered a serious setback just after the championship slogan was shouted!
