494、The limelight has been robbed!

July 17.

Shanghai 80,000-person stadium.

Although it is known as the 80,000 stadium, even if the stadium is temporarily installed, it can only accommodate more than 60,000 spectators.

However, this does not affect the atmosphere of the field at all.

When Kaka walked out of the player's passage wearing the captain's armband, unimaginable huge cheers burst out in the stands in an instant, and even he was almost shocked.

Even Shanghai Shenhua players who played at home curled their lips with some jealousy.

He is just a little handsome, what's so proud of?

-

Kaka's eyes flew past the opponents in front of him one by one, but he still couldn't tell the appearance of these people, so he could only distinguish them by number.

He remembered what Long Shute had told himself before:

"Don't get too many balls. Sometimes Chinese players will fight fiercely, especially away from the No. 5 player."

Player No. 5?

It looks very friendly.

Then Kaka heard a whistle, and he was thrown to the ground by No. 5 player Dai Lin and others...

Long Shute's little heart almost jumped out. He spread Dailin away, glared at him viciously, and then scanned Kaka's condition.

Fortunately, the Brazilian's body was just a little bit broken, and he patted his butt and stood up again.

"Don't take my words as a warning!"

Long Shute complained dissatisfiedly, and Kaka just lowered his head and said:

"This free kick...I'll play it?"

It's just a commercial game, so Long Shute certainly has no objection - in fact, except for playing twice in Ajax, he rarely takes a free kick, let alone a penalty kick.

But this time he and Kaka stood in the free throw area together and provided a cover for the opponent.

The referee signaled to kick off, Long Shute took a breath and ran towards the football.

When he was only half a meter away from the football, his rhythm changed significantly, and Shenhua's human wall became highly vigilant, like a tight spring that would jump up at any time.

When Long Shute swung his calf, the human wall finally bounced up, but they did not see the flying ball.

Because Long Shute's right foot just pushed the ball outward, Kaka completed the last blow!

Kaka's inner instep was twitched on the football, and the ball rubbed against the grass and jumped out from under the human wall that jumped up high!

Even though Shenhua has Olympic champion goalkeeper Wang Dalei, she can only watch Kaka's ground-to-ground arrow fly straight to the goal!

1-0!

-

"Kaka!"

"Kaka!"

When Kaka scored the first record for AC Milan, there were huge cheers in the entire stadium.

Those fanatical female fans even had tears in their eyes, which made Long Shute unable to help but curl his lips.

Then, Milan naturally took over the game, especially Long Shute burst out continuously without being outdone, leading the midfield and frontcourt that was not tacit enough to launch a continuous attack towards Shenhua's halftime, once pressing the host in the penalty area and unable to move.

If Long Shute hadn't known that this was a commercial game, he put down his offensive after scoring three goals in a row, and even put some water at the last moment. The score of this game was definitely more than 6-0.

However, Shenhua doesn't have to be too frustrated, because two days later, AC Milan taught the Chinese Super League champion Guangzhou Evergrande with the same score in Guangzhou, and they even used only one rotation lineup - of course, in order to preserve physical fitness, Evergrande did not send all the main lineups to play, and the atmosphere of everyone's game is quite friendly.

Next, Milan played a friendly match with Arsenal and Bayern Munich in Xi'an and Beijing, and the two matches ended 4-2 and 3-3 respectively.

In such a close schedule, Kaka, who is in the recovery period, plays for less than 60 minutes in each game, and most of the other players have accepted rotation. Only Long Shute unexpectedly played all the games, allowing these teammates in Milan to experience his unfathomable physical fitness for the first time.

After the trip to China, Milan, who made more than 20 million euros, rushed back to Italy overnight. On July 24, they also had to participate in Italy's traditional pre-season warm-up event - the TIM Triangle Cup.

This event is sponsored by Italian domestic telecom giant Tim Telecom. Every year, the three giants Juventus and Milan heroes participate, and is called the appetizer before the meal.

However, since Inter Milan has been involved in a storm of being acquired recently, from senior management to coaches to players, they are not in the mood to participate in such a painless event, so the newly promoted Sassuolo actually replaced their quota.

The reason why it is called the "Triangle Cup" is because the rules of this event are indeed quite strange: A plays with B first for 45 minutes, A plays with C for 45 minutes, and then B plays with C for 45 minutes. Each game must be decided. If the draw is tied in a regular time, the penalty shootout will be played directly, and finally the points are calculated based on the results of each game. It is indeed a veritable triangle game.

The day on July 24 soon arrived, and Milan, who was struggling to ride, was arranged for the second game.

What surprised the audience was... In the first 45-minute game, the defending league champion Juventus actually played 0-0 with the newly promoted Sassuolo...

In the subsequent penalty shootout, the "young player" Buffon saved Sassuolo's seventh goal, helping Juventus defeat his opponent 7-6.

The Zebras, who had just experienced a penalty shootout, could take a breath from the tense atmosphere, rested in the stands for an hour and witnessed AC Milan, who was exhausted, defeated Sassuolo again with a score of 3-1.

In the final match, AC Milan and Juventus met on a narrow road. Long Shute, who had already broken the curse, was once again defeated by Buffon, and the 0-0 score forced them to enter the penalty shootout again.

I'm afraid few people will like the extreme performance of penalty shootouts, and even the Italians, who have always been calm, do not want to decide the outcome in this way.

Although Buffon saved Balotelli's ingenious spoon penalty kick, Abiatti also saved Pirlo's spoon without being outdone, and continued to work hard, using a weird dance in front of the goal to make Pogba psychologically unbalanced and kick it away.

After the first three rounds, AC Milan led 2-1, while Kaka was the fourth player to play.

At his peak, Kaka was once called "point card" by fans because of his sure-fire penalty shooting percentage, but this nickname disappeared as he lost his penalty with Ronaldo in the 2012 Champions League semi-finals, and his confidence disappeared from Real Madrid's bench.

But now Kaka has gradually regained his confidence, scoring goals or assists in four consecutive warm-up matches, which has also reached the peak of his condition. Facing the world's top goalkeeper, he did not hesitate at all, and his right foot made a graceful arc, and the spinning football was slapped in a dead corner!

Juventus' fourth appearance was Tevez, who had just transferred from Manchester City in the summer. The Argentine striker, nicknamed "Beast", chose a low-level shot, but he was extremely unlucky to hit the post.

Long Shute, the finale who was originally preparing to take the fifth penalty, could only curl his lips.

In the past half month, he seems to have been stealing the limelight by his teammates...

It’s that Kaka, it’s fine if he’s handsome, but there’s always a wonderful rhythm when playing ball. In Longshao’s words, it looks a bit sissy, but... you can’t say he’s not good-looking.

It feels bad to be stolen from the limelight.

You are forcing me, Long Ritian, to recall my teacher when I debuted... "Ice Prince" Borgkamp!
