Chapter 142: The King of San Siro!
The next day, April 20th. Sports media around the world reported last night's peak battle from different angles. The Italian media was full of praise, and no one would have thought that Milan would win 2-0 before the game. The main reason was Milan's poor defense line, coupled with Gattuso's absence, causing immeasurable losses.
The title of Milan Sports News is: One pass and one shot, Don helped Milan win the peak night!
The title of the team newspaper is: At the peak battle, Milan won the first leg 2-0!
The team newspaper, known for its fairness, believes that in last night's game, the two teams showed their own level. Barcelona's strong attack power was shown at the beginning of the game, and Ronaldinho almost used a strange direct free kick to break through Milan's goal. Since then, they have obtained many good opportunities, but unfortunately under the huge pressure, they all missed the opportunity to score.
Fifteen minutes before the end of the game, Barcelona showed their offensive ability to the fullest and surrounded Milan for a fierce attack. Unfortunately, under Milan's ventilated defense, they still could not get a valuable away goal.
They praised Milan, believing that the attack line formed by Tang Jue and Kaka showed deterrence. The two scored one goal from Barcelona respectively. The two Milan stars were carrying the banner of attack. Without Ronnie, Milan's attack power did not lose much.
However, they still criticized Milan's defense line, believing that they were still not stable enough, so Nesta gave Barcelona the opportunity to equalize the score. Can such a defense line withstand Barcelona's sharp attack at the Camp Nou?
The title of Rome Sports is: 2-0, Milan defeats Barcelona!
They praised Milan's tenacity. Tang Jue, the main hero of the team's victory, set up a special topic to report on it. The title is: Awesome and amazing, Tang took on the heavy responsibility of Milan's offense!
In the topic, they described Tang Jue's goal in detail. Finally, they commented: This ball completely showed his speed to fans around the world. Etoo, who is famous for his speed, failed to win in the competition of speed. Not only that, he also broke through the carefully organized defense line of Barcelona's four generals and successfully broke out. At that moment, he completely showed his keen insight ability and tore open Barcelona's defense line with his high football wisdom.
This is simply unimaginable. An eighteen-year-old Tang, who only has two years of professional experience, can quickly find a solution to the problem in a very short time and under such strong pressure. Even the famous forwards who have been dominating the court for many years, are unlikely to do this.
A commentator said at that time that he was the king of San Siro. We think this title is appropriate. He showed the momentum that a king possessed. At that time, San Siro completely forgot about Shepchenko. Tang had successfully replaced his position in the hearts of Milan fans, even higher than his status.
He has performed long-distance raids in San Siro many times this season, and his game with Bayern is even more exciting than this goal. Last night was one of the best proofs of his title as the king!
In sharp contrast to him is Ronaldinho, a two-time world footballer, who was on his head, the Brazilian star with the title of world number one star, under tremendous pressure, and the penalty kick was easily confiscated by Dida. Even Dida, who was holding the football, looked surprised and confused at the time.
After that, his mind was completely confused. He walked across the ball with his football. In front of Milan's defense line, he was bleeding and gained nothing. In the end, he was replaced early by Rijkaard, who could not bear it.
Ronaldinho's performance proves the famous rule summarized by the Spanish media in front of the game: for the first time, players will perform abnormally.
Ronnie proved this rule in the 1998 World Cup final. Now, both Brazilians, Ronaldinho also proved this rule.
Speaking of exceptions, Tang ignored this rule, which shows how strong his psychology is. This is also an important basis for him to be king. The king will inevitably play his abilities in important games. This is like this in the 1986 World Cup, this is like this in the 1998 World Cup final, and this is like this in the 2002 Champions League final, and this is like this in the 2002 World Cup final. Ronnie scored twice.
All these show that to become kings, one must show one's ability at critical moments. Speaking of this, Ronaldinho lacks such a temperament that no one else can do. At least in last night's game, he did not show such temperament.
So far this season, Milan has basically won the league championship, and they will definitely focus on the Champions League. If they can reach the final, they will set a new record in Milan's history, reaching the final three times in four seasons!
Now they have taken a solid step towards the finals!
The title of the British Daily Mail is: Don tied the Champions League goal record, Milan won the first leg 2-0!
They focused on Tang Jue's twelve Champions League goals, believing that Tang Jue has begun to show his kingly temperament. Under tremendous pressure, he made a pass and a shot to help Milan defeat the powerful Barcelona.
...
Looking at the report of Rome Sports, Tang Jue, sitting on the sofa in the living room, raised his lips slightly. At the beginning of the season, he had not yet fully integrated into Milan's offensive system, Rome Sports criticized him. Look at the current report, full of praise.
Tang Jue actually called him the King of Saint Siro. He did not agree with this title. In his opinion, there was no championship trophy for an important competition, and everything was fake.
The world is obviously worldly. When you perform well, they will not be stingy and praise you. When you perform poorly, you will definitely put a detriment.
Ronaldinho, who was sitting on the plane, felt this. He dragged the exhausted Edmilson back to the hotel at 2 a.m. last night. At this moment, he looked at the Turin Sports newspaper in his hand and realized that they were photographed by the Italian media last night.
Turin Sports put him and the drunk Ed Milson in the newspaper, and also included the title: Barcelona swallows bitter fruit, Ronaldinho drinks bitter wine!
They said in the report: On the peak night, Ronaldinho, who lost the penalty, returned to the hotel and pulled Edmilson to the hotel to get drunk. He drank from 11 o'clock in the evening until 2 o'clock in the morning.
If Barcelona swallowed the bitter fruit of arrogance in last night's game, then Ronaldinho drank bitter wine. Barcelona was said to be arrogant because they repeatedly stated before the game that they had a way to curb Don's performance. Some media even reported that Valdes claimed to win the penalty for Milan, but Don used a strong long-distance raid to declare their arrogance bankrupt.
Ronaldio angrily put down the Turin Sports Daily and picked up another newspaper. Perhaps by accident, he flipped to the sports section. In the most conspicuous position of the section, he showed his frustrated expression of missing a penalty kick.
There is a line of small words below the picture: Ronaldinho's expression after missing a penalty kick!
On the top left of the picture is the title: Ronaldinho missed a penalty kick. Milan won the peak battle 2-0!
You don’t have to look at the specific content to know what they wrote. Ronaldinho closed the newspaper angrily and closed his eyes. He thought to himself: "Damn it! Don’t think of getting a few words from me next time. It’s just a game, is it worthy of such a big book? Look at your ugly faces, it’s simply disgusting!
...
The Spanish media praised Barcelona, believing that they had consistently high standards in San Siro. They were just unlucky. They encouraged Barcelona: Returning to the Camp Nou, Barcelona will definitely win.
However, they criticized Ronaldinho severely, believing that he did not show the temperament that a world footballer should have. Under strong pressure, he missed the most important penalty kick. This was almost a fatal mistake, and a precious away goal was gone.
Especially for his performance after the penalty kick, he criticized him even more.
...
Arsenal is preparing for a match against Villarreal as many media commented on the peak battle.
Before the game, the media interviewed Henry. When the reporter asked him what he thought about last night's peak battle, Henry said: "Congratulations to Milan for his victory, but when he returned to the Camp Nou, Barcelona will still have a chance."
Many media believe that Henry's remarks mean that he still wants to transfer to Barcelona.
The reporter asked again: "What do you think of Tang's performance? He is your partner in the national team. Will his wonderful performance add pressure to you? In addition, some media call him "King of San Siro" What do you think of this title?"
Henry regrets being interviewed by this media very much. He wished he could strangle the reporter to death, but he still replied: "Don's performance last night was perfect. I am here to congratulate him. He has always performed well this season and has scored goals in many important games."
"People always praise the winner, and Don showed a kingly temperament last night."
"As for pressure, everyone will have pressure in important competitions, and I will adjust the pressure."
The reporter asked: "If Barcelona are unfortunately eliminated by Milan, will you consider transferring to Barcelona in the future?"
Henry said vaguely: "Now is not the time to consider this issue. What I have to consider now is how to defeat Villarreal. The outside world believes that their strength is not as strong as Arsenal. I don't think so. The team that can eliminate Inter Milan is weak, which is purely a scam."
At 8:30 that night, the Champions League semi-finals were staged at the Highbury Stadium. This was Arsenal's last European match at Highbury. Next season, they bid farewell to Highbury and moved into a new stadium.
Arsenal and Villarreal both reached the Champions League semi-finals for the first time. Arsenal, which had the advantage of home court, launched a fierce attack on the away team after the start of the game. Henry scored a goal in the 12th minute of the first half, but was ruled to be offside first.
After gaining the advantage for 40 minutes and wasting several scoring opportunities, the Gunners caught the fighter plane in the 41st minute of the first half. Tourer scored his first goal this season, and the final goal proved to be the winning goal of the game. At that time, the home team's French striker Henry took the ball in the frontcourt and passed it across to the Belarusian Leb, who took the ball to Tourer. After Tur got the ball, he shot hard and the ball flew into the near corner of the goal.
Before the half, the away team's Argentine star Riquelme took a free kick in the 25-meter race, but was saved by the home team's goalkeeper Leman. In addition, the home team's Gilberto made a foul in the penalty area, but the referee did not award a penalty.
The home team continued to strengthen the offense in the second half. In the 56th minute, Henry grabbed the ball in front of the opponent's goal, but was blocked by the visiting Alzo from the goal line. In the 70th minute, Henry broke through to the bottom line and passed the ball to the goal, but no one in the home team could keep up with the shot.
The game ended one-to-zero. Looking at the whole game, the yellow submarines who played away did not really threaten Arsenal's goal several times. Their disadvantages in strength were undoubtedly revealed.
After the game, many media believed that the superior Arsenal won at Highbury was an expected result. Arsenal took a solid step towards the final. They are advancing to the first Champions League final. For Wenger, this is the only way to retain Henry.
...
Ancelotti fulfilled her promise and disclosed Ronnie's training to the media on the 20th. Ronnie greeted the reporters she met when she entered the training ground. The reporters looked at Ronnie, who was not very stable, and had questions in their hearts.
Ronnie was because she drank too much last night, and the alcohol in her blood had not completely dissipated. But when she arrived at the training ground, Ronnie seemed to have become a different person. Under the guidance of physical coach Tony Achini, Ronnie performed training events such as jogging, sprinting, and back-running.
The reporters outside the training ground finally believed that Ronnie had really recovered!
So the next day, in addition to reporting on Arsenal's victory, the reports of Ronnie's training occupied a lot of space. Some media even reported that Ronnie was more time-consuming than Arsenal's victory. It can be seen how high Ronnie's position in the football and media.
