LRAB Chapter 532
Chapter 532
On April 12, 2007, the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals between the two Manchester giants was still hot.
The second leg of the battle between Bayern Munich and AC Milan, Valencia and Chelsea kicked off.
Because it was a battle between Bayern and Milan.
It would affect Manchester City's opponent in the semi-finals.
So Manchester City paid special attention to this game. After finishing the daily training in the morning, Su Fei invited a group of teammates to visit his Su Fei Manor in the afternoon.
Watch the ultimate showdown between the Serie A giants and the Bundesliga overlords together.
This game started before.
AC Milan was at a more disadvantageous side, because the two sides tied 2:2 at Milan's home stadium San Siro in the last game.
This means that Bayern currently has an advantage of 2 away goals.
And if AC Milan wants to beat Bayern, they must either draw with a large score or win directly to advance.
At 3:30 in the afternoon.
The game started on time.
Milan, which lost its core striker Shevchenko, has been stumbling all the way this season.
Lost both the Italian Cup and the league.
In this game, Ronaldo, who transferred to AC Milan in January, was not eligible to participate.
Ancelotti even had no choice but to put out a "pseudo-strikerless 4-3-2-1 Christmas tree lineup", with Inzaghi barely serving as the team's single arrow striker.
Bayern Munich is also experiencing a turbulent period of replacement of the old and new team lineups. This season's league is temporarily ranked fourth, outside the Champions League zone, and the German Cup also failed halfway.
It can be said that this Champions League has become the only chance for the two teams to fight for honors this season and reverse the season's reputation.
This is destined to be an extremely tragic game.
...................................................
After the game started.
Bayern Munich, sitting in the Allianz Arena, actively attacked and constantly got shooting opportunities, but AC Milan, who was at a disadvantage in away goals, was forced to defend.
But in the 27th minute of the game. AC Milan, which was not in an advantageous position, took the lead in using counterattacks to break the deadlock.
Nesta successfully intercepted the ball on the right side of the penalty area, and then passed it directly to Kaka. Kaka strode on the right side, accelerated, changed his line in the front court, and passed it diagonally to his teammate Seedorf. Seedorf dribbled the ball sideways, avoided the double attack of Lucio and Van Buyten, and shot with his right foot in the penalty area. The football passed through Van Buyten's crotch and went into the dead corner of the goal.
Milan led Bayern 3:2!
Seedorf, who had not contributed a goal in this Champions League, stood up in the most crucial game.
Milan players ran together on the Allianz Arena to celebrate, and the Bayern fans in the stands looked confused.
The middle circle of the game was reopened.
It was thought that the next game would be like the last time the two teams went back and forth, but it was unexpected that not long after the kick-off, Bayern Munich lost the ball continuously.
Once, twice, three times....
In the 31st minute of the game, Jankulovski made a low pass from the left side of the front court to the middle, and Pirlo passed the ball to his teammate Seedorf without stopping. The moment Seedorf took the ball, he turned sideways and passed it with his heel, and the ball rolled to the top of the penalty area. Inzaghi, who was stuck on the offside line, rushed over, stopped and pushed, and the ball drew a straight line in the air, flew over the Bayern defense line, and flew into the upper left corner of the goal.
Milan scored another goal.
Leading Bayern 4:2, a dreamy start to the first half of the second round!
......
In the second half, Bayern, who was two goals behind, had to make adjustments. Head coach Hitzfeld replaced Santa Cruz, Görlitz, and Pizarro, hoping to strengthen the team's offensive.
In the situation, Bayern did it, with a tide of offensive, continuously bombarding Milan's earth goal. But AC Milan, which lost Shevchenko, has not lost their proud defense. Goalkeeper Dida and his teammates on the back line worked together to block Bayern's shots again and again.
When the time entered the injury time, Bayern still did not score. The Allianz Arena was very quiet and desperate. When the whistle sounded at the end of the game.
The players on the AC Milan bench held hands and rushed to the green field, cheering with their teammates on the field to celebrate their successful promotion.
Ancelotti, who still had a few black hairs on the side of the field, raised his fat right hand and gestured emotionally.
And the Manchester City players in front of the TV.
It was also the first time to know that they were about to face their opponent in the semi-finals. It was the AC Milan in front of them who defeated Bayern Munich 2:0 away and 4:2 with an incredible performance.
Across the TV.
Everyone can feel the oppression brought by this Milan.
"To be honest, although they are all representatives of Serie A,, but Roma is not on the same level as Milan. ”
“You are talking nonsense. The opponents in the semi-finals must be stronger than those in the quarter-finals.”
“Hey, James, Knight, are you scared before the game even starts?”
“How could it be? I’m just facing the opponent’s strength.”
“No matter who comes.”
“Anyway, our goal is to win, advance to the final, and then win the trophy!”
“Well said, Antonio! I hope you can score a hat trick in the first half against Milan like you did against Roma!”
“No! I’ll imitate Su and score 5 goals in 9 minutes!”
“Haha, you’re just bragging. "
The live broadcast on the TV has ended. Manchester City players are talking about it, and everyone has their own ideas.
Cassano made a joke, which made everyone laugh. The inexplicably tense atmosphere dissipated a lot.
Su Fei did not participate in the discussion.
Instead, he walked into the kitchen silently to see what was going on.
In the kitchen, a middle-aged man wearing a chef's hat was neatly cleaning up the kitchen scraps on the table.
"Uncle Zhang, is dinner ready?"
"Xiao Su, it's all ready and has been placed in the restaurant. I made three hot pots and ten hard dishes. The meat and vegetables for the hot pots are also on the small dining cart. Don't worry, these ten dishes are the dishes that foreigners loved to order in the restaurant when I was the chef in the Chinatown restaurant. "
"Haha, okay, I'll go and take a look. "
Su Fei came to the restaurant, and a long table specially used for entertaining guests was set with a table full of dishes, including sweet and sour pork tenderloin, Kung Pao chicken, mapo tofu, sweet and sour pork with pineapple... and three steaming hot pots.
Next to the table was a small dining cart full of hot pot dishes, beef and mutton rolls, and various vegetables and mushrooms.
What is professionalism? This is professionalism!
For the first time, Su Fei felt that the chef he had hired last month with a monthly salary of 3,000 pounds was worth the money.
Not to mention the Chinese food that he usually ate to satisfy his cravings.
Just this table of feast for teammates is not something that ordinary people can prepare in half an afternoon.
Although the reason is to invite teammates to watch the game today.
But Su Fei didn't want to invite teammates to his new home for the first time, so he ordered takeout such as pizza or let his teammates go back hungry.
And such a gathering.
It can also promote the relationship between himself and his teammates.
When Su Fei called Manchester City teammates to the restaurant for dinner, everyone was stunned by the rich preparation.
"Damn, Su!!!"
"Too polite! Idol!"
"Su, I thought you called everyone over to eat burgers... You are too thoughtful, I'm already drooling."
"Then I won't be polite, let me help everyone taste it first."
"Wow, Knight, do you have any manners, Ah San, why are you using your hands, don't you see the chopsticks next to you?"
"What KuaiZi? These two wooden sticks are used for eating? I thought it was for picking teeth."
"......."
