Starting from playing as a defensive midfielder for Real Madrid

Chapter 44: Li Ang can’t get through, Milan can’t beat through

"That was a foul! Absolute foul! He tripped me, and you signaled the game to continue."

Seeing that Milan's players quickly engaged in the counterattack, Asamoah couldn't lie still on the ground, jumped up, and was about to chase the referee for an explanation.

Sanchez, who couldn't stand it anymore, quickly stopped him.

Good guy, if you continue to lie on the ground and pretend to be miserable, maybe the referee will stop the game later and take a look at the situation on your side.

But not only did you get up from the ground, but now you are still eager to go to the referee to argue with you. This brain is really...

When Asamoah was still a little angry in Milan's half, Milan's counterattack had already hit the heart of Udinese.

Ibrahimovic received Boateng's pass, backed up Benatia, and then knocked the ball across to Robinho who cut inside.

The Cycling Prince was still a little oily at the moment, and I didn't see him making any too fancy moves. He swayed his shoulders, smashed the ball in a different direction, and easily passed the central defender Domic who stepped forward to defend him.

After breaking into the right side of the penalty area, Robinho confidently chose to hit the goal directly!

The football quickly flew to the upper left corner of Udinese's goal, but just before it was about to cross the line, a stretched-out saving figure broke into the sight of all Milan fans!

"Handanovic -!!! He saved Robinho's must-goal! Amazing save! God! He saved Udinese! He wiped out AC Milan's must-goal in the opening period Goal!"

The commentator of Italian Sky Sports couldn't help but be excited.

This save was so beautiful and so personal and heroic!

Ibrahimovic and Robinho both hugged their heads and looked at Handanovic in complete disbelief as he was surrounded and beaten by Udinese defenders!

"damn it!"

Allegri was so excited that he slammed the mineral water bottle that he had just taken a sip into on the turf.

Almost!

Just shy of that, Milan could take a goal lead in the first minute!

With this ball, he can torture Udinese to death!

Pity.

"It's okay! Let's do it again, forget about this counterattack, and fight them again! Focus!"

Gattuso looked further ahead, not wanting his teammates to be emotionally affected by his opponent's wonderful saves. He roared and applauded, reminding his teammates to stay focused.

After this exciting and thrilling counterattack save, both Udinese and Milan subconsciously slowed down their offensive and defensive rhythm.

Players on both sides need to calm down, reorganize their offensive, and at the same time further consolidate their defense.

Seeing that Li Ang could not engage in any fierce confrontation for the time being, he moved back slightly and continued to stare at the Udinese offensive trio who were active on his side.

There is nothing we can do if we don't position deeper. Boateng has great physical fitness, and his defensive enthusiasm seems to be good for the time being.

But just like Brother Face, this guy is just a sweeper, but his defensive efficiency is not necessarily very high.

Moreover, Li Ang consciously cannot rely too much on Boateng to help him bear too much defensive pressure.

After all, he is still an attacking midfielder. It is good to be able to help chase and defend on the left side. The main pressure has to be borne by Li Ang himself.

After the probing attack period, the rhythm of the game gradually picked up again.

Udinese mainly engages in tough confrontation in the middle, and attacks are still launched from the left and right sides.

Pasquale on the left made a great contribution today, but under Gattuso's "care", his performance today can only be said to be average.

But the left side couldn't open up the situation, and Udinese's right side couldn't get a good breakthrough opportunity today. Both wings were locked by Milan, which was very inappropriate.

At least there are many Udinese fans who feel very anxious when they see that their most sharp attack on the right wing has been unable to start.

Sanchez, Isla, and Asamoah were able to push forward smoothly into Milan's half. After all, they had the numerical advantage of the opponent.

But how come at the critical moment when Milan is about to enter the 30-meter zone, that annoying oriental boy can always block Udinese's advancement route in time!

Sanchez and Asamoah were also very agitated at this moment.

Li Ang's position was too stuck!

It’s okay to have such good position selection once or twice, but it’s the same every time. Li Ang almost blocked Udinese’s pushing attack on the right with only Antonini’s assistance.

This was true for the first five minutes, and it was also true for the tenth minute!

As Milan had no intention of attacking aggressively yet, Udinese didn't get a chance to penetrate Milan's midfield defense!

The price paid by Milan was actually that Li Ang temporarily did not participate in any offense, and Li Ang and Antonini ran much farther than usual in a short period of time.

But it's a very good deal.

Because AC Milan's offensive center of gravity was not on the left, but Udinese's main offensive center was pushed down.

With the two offsetting each other, Udinese lost most of its offensive threats, but Milan was able to slowly find good offensive opportunities while maintaining a solid defense in the midfield and backcourt.

Milan can not only do this business, but also do it happily~

"Look at our little Lion, look at the fantastic defensive positioning! Look at what a great boy we got from Real Madrid! He has only played a full game for Milan now, but I have to say , we must keep him! I really like him. With the solid defense in the midfield, our defense is stable and our offense can play more confidently."

Mr. Crudelli seemed very happy during the live broadcast and made no secret of his love for Leon.

Excellent forwards are still emerging in today's football, but outstanding defensive midfielders are becoming scarcer year by year.

Not to mention that Li Ang is still a rare young player who can defend calmly at a young age.

"Luka, watch the outside!"

Just as Milan fans agreed with Mr. Grams' point of view, Leon on the field was also directing Antonini to face Sanchez's impact with the ball again.

This time Udinese's pressing attack was more resolute than in the past, because Isla had already followed Sanchez directly in and was ready to set the edge at any time!

After Antonini received Leon's reminder, he could only make up for the outside line first and keep an eye on Isla who was inserted.

And Li Ang did not rashly attack Sanchez. He was waiting for Boateng to return to defense.

During the continuous sideways retreat, Li Ang blocked Sanchez's inward cut route while maintaining a close distance from Asamoah.

In the area that was almost approaching the edge of Milan's 30-meter zone, Sanchez felt as disgusted and aggrieved as if he had eaten a fly when he saw that Li Ang was not able to grab the ball.

Before Boateng could return to defend, Sanchez had no choice but to pass the ball back to Abdi, who was connecting near the center line.

And Asamoah, who didn't receive the ball after waiting for a long time, didn't complain now.

If Sanchez had given him the ball at the last moment, Li Ang would have been able to fight with him as soon as he turned around. With Pirlo ready to double-team at any time, he would most likely lose the ball.

Udinese once again ended their push on the right hastily.

And looking at Li Ang, who had not been passed by him in a real sense even this time, the thousands of Udinese fans at the scene sighed helplessly.

"If you can't beat Li Ang, you can't beat Milan!"
