Ancelotti told his players his "leading theory" so that they don't have to worry about the gap between the two goals. As long as we keep pressure on them, these two goals will become a burden to the opponent. Everyone thinks what the head coach said makes sense. Leading is not necessarily a good thing, especially a rookie team like Nottingham Forest who has no experience in winning the championship. Two goals will not be a drag on them at the last moment.

After the second half began, AC Milan saw that Nottingham Forest had no intention of fighting against them, so they still surrounded the Forest's penalty area and bombed.

Forest players have seen many such scenes, and they know how to deal with the enemy's attack.

In addition to shrinking the defense line and not giving Yingzaji any chance, he relied on the tireless running of players in the middle and frontcourt to curb AC Milan's midfield organization.

Don't have a defensive counterattack, which is completely different from the defensive counterattack that most people think. Even Ancelotti didn't expect the Forest's defensive counterattack tactics to be so diverse before this game...

You said they were completely pressing the whole game, right? The defense line was still standing on the post. You said they were shrinking their defense? The midfield and frontcourt counterattacked and grabbed AC Milan players in a mess...

Ancelotti really doubts whether Donen has Italian descent.

Tang En told his men that the fifteen minutes at the beginning of the second half was the most dangerous moment, and it was easy for the opponent to seize the opportunity to counterattack because he did not enter the game in time. He asked the players to concentrate at the beginning of the game until the end of the game.

AC Milan launched a fierce offensive against the Forest goal as he expected, this time it was even more fierce than in the first half.

The difference between the two balls is not a useless decoration that makes people look at.

Pirlo kept running, while Albertini followed him in an endless manner. He seized the opportunity and intercepted the ball without hesitation! From his movements, you can't tell that this is a veteran who is almost thirty-six years old and is about to retire after playing this game.

There are too few opportunities to get rid of the opponent. Pirlo decided not to organize the offense for the time being. He handed over more football to Seedorf and Kaka, while he took Albertini in circles.

His relationship with Albertini... How to say it is very complicated. He is both a teacher and a friend, and he is also a competitor. Because they have the same position on the field and their technical characteristics are similar. Albertini's advantage lies in his experience, while Pirlo's advantage lies in his youth. Finally, when Pirlo grew up under Albertini's careful training, he could completely replace Demi, and Demi was told by Galliani that there was no position in the team.

It can be said that Pirlo indirectly led to Albertini's departure.

This is the normal metabolism of any team, but it only happens in AC Milan, which is proud of being full of humanity and respect and loyalty. It is somewhat shocking.

At this time, Pirloco had no time to think about the various grudges and revenge between him and Albertini. He was the team's brain. His characteristic is that he was calmer than anyone else, and these things were not enough to interfere with him. The only time he lost his mind until now was when Albertini scored a free kick. But that emotion was just fleeting. As a native from Inter Milan to AC Milan, Pirlo understood the cruelty of professional football. Today's professional football has long no faith in any loyalty...

Pirlo's short-term task is to drag Albertini to run with him and consume the opponent's physical strength. He is now more of a football transfer station and is not really responsible for organizing the offense. The football is at his feet and it will be quickly passed away. Albertini of course knows what Pirlo is doing. But he dares not not follow. He doesn't follow, who knows whether Pirlo will take advantage of this opportunity to transform into a commander on the court again?

Even though he knew that the other party was consuming his physical strength, Albertini also gritted his teeth and followed.

Kaka received more passes, and everyone believed in his ability and Pirlo. Pirlo decided to avoid the edge for the time being, and the team's offensive task fell on his shoulders.

To be honest, Kaka played very uncomfortable in this game. He is the kind of player who needs space to give him breakthroughs and speed up. He is not a player who mainly organizes passes like Pirlo. He is not even a midfielder like Zidane. He is more modern than Zidane. He is a typical representative of modern football development to this day - excellent physical fitness, fast speed, good dribbling, strong scoring ability after insertion, and can also help defend.

Such front-lines were basically rarely seen more than ten years ago.

When the football is handed over to Kaka's feet, he always has to find a way to help the team score. Whether it is assisting his teammates, or doing it himself.

This time, he chose to do it himself.

Trying to protect the football.      With Wood's constant impact behind his back, Kaka knocked the football forward. He made a move to break through, which caused Pi Kui, who was standing in front, to tilt his body and flashed out of a gap.

Wood, who was behind him, saw Kaka slamming his foot and knew that he was going to shoot. He quickly took the ball, hoping to shovel the football one step earlier.

He was still late, and Kaka swung his legs faster than he thought.

"Bang!"

The football got into the gap that Pikui did away!

Wood only shoveled the grass chips on the splash.

The breakthrough is no longer possible, I still have long shots! Long shots are a good way to break through dense defense.

The football flew towards the goal with a sniff. Van der Sa rushed over in the air with all his attention and racquetted the football out with one hand, which was so shocked that there was a breath of breath in the stands.

"It's so dangerous! Kaka's shot was saved by Van der Sar. This is the most threatening attack in AC Milan in the second half!"

Kaka, who had no goal, held her head in her hands with her hands a little annoyed.

Wood got up from the ground and stared at his opponent's back. Kaka in the second half seemed to have changed his body, which brought Wood significantly more pressure. As a defensive midfielder, Wood could not fight with many front midfielders, including world-class front midfielders, such as Ronaldinho and Riquelme. But the opponent in front of him was different from the previous front midfielders. Kaka had a physical fitness like a back midfielder, and the general collision basically could not pose any threat to him. Unless it was a foul...

But Tang En didn't let him give his opponent too many direct free kicks at the front of the penalty area. If he didn't foul, that's it... let him shoot the ball.

Wood, who has watched the Kaka game video, knows nothing about this Brazilian. He knows Kaka is fast and has outstanding long-range shooting ability.

Always tighten your nerves.

The corner kick is extremely precious for AC Milan, who has been unable to start the situation for a long time, but at the same time they also have to guard against the Forest's counterattack and sneak attack.

Both Maldini and Nesta went up to compete for the header, Odo, Yankulovsky, Gattuso and Ambrosini stayed behind to defend.

This is also during the intermission. Ancelotti specifically explained it.

The corner kick was taken, and no one posed a threat to Van der Sar's goal. None of Martini and Nesta hit the ball. Before them, Pepe had already pushed the ball out with his strong air control ability and bounce.

As expected, Nottingham Forest launched a quick counterattack.

Fortunately, he arranged four people to guard the backcourt this time, otherwise he might have lost the ball again.

Van der Fate's ball was blocked by Gattuso, and he wanted to pass it to Ribery. But this move had been seen through AC Milan, and Ambroseni followed Ribery in an endless step, Ashley. Yang Kurovsky was there. After hesitation, Van der Fate's ball was lost.

AC Milan immediately changed from defense to offense.

Gattuso handed the football to Pirlo. Pirlo decided to take advantage of this opportunity, and he passed the football only to Kaka.

He identified the gap in the forest team and George Wood's defense zone. He didn't believe Kaka would not be able to beat this young boy.

Of course, Kaka didn't believe it anymore. He was originally receiving the ball with his back to the attack direction. Wood firmly stuck his position behind him to prevent Kaka from turning around. However, he didn't expect that Kaka would arch his feet and pass the ball past them while receiving the ball. At the same time, Kaka quickly turned around, just like a motorcycle turning, supporting the ground with his hands to complete the turn between the square inch.

Wood didn't expect Kaka to do this under such strict control. In amazement, Kaka had already turned around and went to chase the ball.

Wood did not dare to neglect and turned around quickly. He caught up with Kaka at his own speed, and then took the lead in flying tackles when his opponent had not completely controlled the football and shoveled the football out of Kaka's control range. At the same time, he also collided with Kaka, and the two fell to the ground in a very embarrassed manner.

Milan fans booed a huge boo, thinking it was a foul, but the referee had no words. Another attack from AC Milan ended...

The chest of Wood's jersey was completely soaked in sweat. The red there was deeper than the red in other places. Kaka was not much better. The high-speed sprint was forced to interrupt his physical fitness.

The two of them lay on the ground and gasped for a while before being pulled up by their respective teammates.

Albertini patted Wood on the shoulder. Praise his performance just now.

Pirlo pulled Kaka and asked if the pass he had just passed was appropriate and if it should be bigger to help him get rid of Wood.

Kaka waved his hand and signaled that the pass was just right.

Then he looked at Wood and it was hard for everyone to have a good time, the confrontation just now.

I heard that this person also has Brazilian blood, so he is such a freak. Which one is better, he or Gattuso, in the team?

"Kakaha was much more active than in the first half..." Chris Lack said on the coach's seat.

Don next to him nodded in agreement.

"It's normal. Kaka is the only one who can appear here. He has this strength. It was an accident for him in the first half. He didn't expect our defense to be so tight. When he gets used to it, it's our turn to be nervous..." Tang En said, not surprised by this. He knew very well what Kaka has. If Kaka did not perform at all in the whole game, he would be surprised.

If Wood is asked to defend Kaka, Wood will also feel huge pressure. But this pressure is good for him. If he wants to continue to grow, such pressure is essential.

"Continue to give me the ball." After calming down his previous wild breathing, Kaka said to Pirlo, "I think I have a way to deal with that No. 13. My ball was a little far away just now, and he won't have that chance next time."

Pirlo nodded: "If you don't tell me, I will pass it to you. I was entangled by Demi. You are the only one who can break through their defense."

The two quickly separated, Pirlo returned to the back, and Kaka stood in the frontcourt.

Soon, the football was sent to Kaka again by Pirlo.

This time Kaka did not catch the ball with his back. He received a straight pass from Pirlo while running forward. Seeing the football rolling, Kaka suddenly increased his speed. He and Pirlo knew what kind of pass he wanted - the passing speed should be as fast as possible. Try to make it as strong as possible to make him kick the speed while running.

Once Kaka's speed is raised, there are not many people in the world who can stop him without fouls.

Wood found that Kaka was suddenly speeding up around him. He knew that he was going to catch the ball, so he also increased his speed. He wanted to push Kaka to the dead corner, and Pikui was ahead. He and Pikui had a front and back attack, so he would not worry about not being able to stop the football.

Kaka seemed to be really forced into a dead corner. Pikui was very close to him. Wood was pressing behind him.

He received the football, and Pique was close at hand.

Just when everyone thought Pique would leave Kaka with Wood, the Brazilian's left ankle shaking lightly, and the football crawled through Pique's legs!

At the same time, Kaka stopped suddenly and changed direction, and passed by Pi Kui who was still stunned. A beautiful man-goal scored!

Wood didn't expect Kaka to break through the encirclement between him and Piku so easily. Although he was surprised, his speed under his feet did not decrease.

Pikui was like a wooden stake, Kaka broke through his right side. Wood flew over his left side at high speed.

At this time, Kaka was only less than five meters away from the penalty area, and his speed was obviously brought up. If he didn't foul, he would definitely break through. Although the boss said that he could not give a free kick to AC Milan's dangerous area, is it a free kick or is it allowed the opponent to break into the penalty area and shoot or pass the ball directly? Which one is more dangerous?

Wood did not hesitate anymore and turned his body to the football from the side. Although it was a tackle, his feet were raised high, almost reaching Kaka's knee. Sure enough, Kaka quickly poked the football away, but the man hit him head-on.

This time, it was undoubtedly a foul. The referee's whistle sounded amid the huge booing of Milan fans, and was almost ignored by the players.

After Kaka fell out, she knelt on the ground and shrugged her shoulders helplessly. The kid didn't think about tackles when he shoveled it down. Judging from the height of his feet, it was clearly aimed at his legs.

The referee gave Wood a yellow card, and Wood didn't mind at all.

Tang En stood up from the coach's seat. He walked to the sidelines. He frowned slightly. Wood could not mind this yellow card, he could not ignore it. As a core player in the defense, he is the ace to mark the opponent. With 30 minutes left in the game, who can guarantee that he will not receive another yellow card?

"George!!" He waved his hand hard to let Wood come over, and he wanted to give him a face-to-face opportunity.

Wood saw Done waving to him, so he threw the referee and ran over.

"You did a good job, but if you want to foul next time, you'll commit it when he's just starting out." Tang En shook his head.

Wood had a different opinion: "I saw Pique in front and didn't expect to make a foul, but I didn't expect..."

"Yes, yes, I know." Tang En nodded constantly, "Now you have a yellow card on you, you have to pay attention. Choose the location and timing of the foul, and once you violate the rules, make a friendly move immediately, so that you can get a lot of impression points from the referee... Don't make me look like the whole world owes you five million. You must not be sent off! Do you understand?"

"Yes, I understand." Wood's answer was quite straightforward, but Tang En was still worried. After all, the situation on the football field is changing rapidly, who can know what will happen in a minute?

After getting Wood back to the stadium, Don did not turn around and return to the coach's seat immediately. He stood on the sidelines and watched AC Milan's free kick.
To be continued...
