Golden Greenery

Before Zhuo Yangfei was forced to play as central defender, AC Milan used Bonera in this game, and he was used when not. Anyway, he can always maintain a world-class level, but I don't know who he is, and his position will change immediately without any warning.

Partnering with Bonera, Maldini has little trouble with the media, and Bonera can steal all the limelight.

Two minutes after the restart, Kaka's midfielder's ball was intercepted by Perrotta and Chilean midfielder Pizarro. Roma uses a double defensive midfielder. De Rossi focuses on control and rhythm, while Perrotta focuses more on defense. The main target is Kaká.

The ball reached De Rossi, Pirlo was close to the side, Brocchi sneaked in from behind and stretched his foot to intercept, and the football returned to Kaká again. After advancing to the frontcourt, he passed it to Zhuoyang. Zhuoyang cut in from the wing and broke into the penalty area from the ribs. He pretended to pass to Inzaghi, but secretly aimed at the goal.

Mexes arrived in time. He blocked the ball from the front, and Tonetto also attacked from behind, making Zhuoyang's attack in vain. Although AC Milan's performance in the league this season is relatively average, the reputation of the two outstanding players on the offensive line makes any opponent tremble. The 'Zhuoka' combination has surpassed Chelsea's 'Scar Beast' and the former Juventus and now Inter Milan's 'Monyi' combination to become the most famous men's team in the entire European football. Therefore, the main task given to Mexes by the team today is to defend Zhuoyang who has entered the shooting range.

French central defender Philippe Mexes is 24 years old this year and he has quite a story. His father was a well-known handsome man in the local shanty town of Toulouse and a butcher in the meat factory. When Mex was a teenager, the butcher hooked up with a model from Peru and then abandoned Mex's mother. Not long after, he got a new half-brother.

Like all children who grow up under the eyes of their stepmother, no matter whether they treat him really badly or not, Max has the person he hates the most.

After his unparalleled football talent was revealed, Mexes was hailed as Blanc's successor, the same Blanc who liked to kiss other people's bald heads and later joined Manchester United. Two years ago, Mexes was seduced by Capello, the then Roma coach, and betrayed his mentor, Auxerre coach Guy Roux, who had tried so hard to persuade him to stay. Serving a six-week ban from FIFA, he came to Rome resolutely.

That year, Roma defender Optimus Prime, Argentinian rock Samuel, left Real Madrid. Capello's favorite replacement was originally Madibo's Greek rock Delas. However, the famous coach can't do whatever he wants, so he has a keen eye. The human Capello discovered the younger gem of Mexes.

Mexes came, but Capello, who had given him many promises, defected to Juventus on the first day of his arrival.

That was the most chaotic period in Rome. The head coach came and went like a revolving lantern. The internal fighting within the team was more lively than Serie A. Mexes was also bullied by the Apennine forwards on the field. He has Nesta's beauty, as well as Nesta's defensive aura and elegance, but without Nesta's courage to give up every inch of ground, Mexes' biggest problem is his softness.

After a year of depression, when Mex returned to France for vacation, he met his idol Laurent Blanc, who pointed out his problem to the point. Finding problems is nothing, finding methods and tips to solve them is awesome.

"Philip, who do you most want to kill in your life?" Blanc asked him.

"My father and my brother! I want to kill them even in my dreams." Max's eyes turned blood red instantly.

Blanc: "..."

"...Okay." Blanc scratched his head. "In the future, when the opponent's forward rushes over, think of him as your father and brother."

Blanc turned stone into gold, and Mexes had an epiphany. Last season, he became the most bloodthirsty, toughest, and most difficult central defender in Serie A. In just one year, he ranked among the top ten villains in football.

All of the above were what Mexes said fiercely to the camera at the French Youth Footballer Award Ceremony. Later, several well-known European mental health institutions contacted Mekes and were willing to give him a free visit.

No matter how ruthless Mex is,

Zhuo Yang was not afraid, and no one had a gun in his hand. But Mexes' ferocity is based on his outstanding defensive ability and positional sense, which makes Zhuo Yang very headache. Coupled with the help of other defenders, Zhuo Yang feels that Roma's defense is much more difficult than Inter Milan.

But it doesn't matter if the breakthrough in the penalty area is blocked, Zhuo Yang can still pass the ball. In the 19th minute, after Zhuoyang faced off with Mexes, he took the lead and passed the football to Inzaghi. Jiuye fell to the ground and shot, but it hit the lintel again.

For the fifth time, AC Milan kicked the opponent's goal five times in less than 20 minutes. It was really a hell today. Zhuo Yang and Max looked at each other with their own thoughts, and they both knew that they were not on good terms with each other. However, neither of them could have imagined at this moment that they had many stories about each other in Italy. Today was just a greeting when they first met.

.

AC Milan's personal ability to attack the frontcourt trident is unambiguous, but the overall formation is very weak in front of Roma, especially the midfield, which is severely suppressed by the opponent. As the head coach, Ancelotti is certainly aware of the problem. bright.

An Pang turned to look at the coach next door who was the same age as him and had never heard of him when he was playing football, Luciano Spalletti. He still admired this man's ability to follow the trend.

It’s not that he dresses fashionably. Although Spalletti has a bald head with an eagle’s eyes and a hooked nose, and a pair of majestic ears like Lord of the Rings, his appearance is much more temperamental than Ancelotti, who looks like an old vegetable farmer. But Spalletti was following the fashion of football.

Roma's lone striker looks like a 4-2-3-1 on the surface. In fact, Totti at the front retreats very deep and is very close to the five midfielders. The rotation is also very particular. In addition, although the five midfielders have different divisions of labor, they are basically all-round talents, so the overall formation of Roma remains very solid and flexible.

Does it look familiar? Yes, this is exactly the forward-less tactic that originated from Madibo in the era of uncle Jurgen Klopp and was carried forward even more brilliantly than Barcelona led by Rijkaard and Ronaldinho.

After the little-known Spalletti came to Roma, which had changed coaches four times a year, he not only clearly supported Totti's locker room authority off the field, but also used this advanced forward-less tactics on the field to strengthen Totti's core position. , with these two major methods, Spalletti ended Roma's chaotic internal disputes and gradually brought the team back on track, which was a great achievement.

Ancelotti knew about the no-front option, but he didn't study it carefully because it was obviously not suitable for AC Milan. Last year, he played against Spalletti in the league, and the two won one game each. Ancelotti did not take advantage. He still did not do more research. The main opponents are still Juventus and Inter Milan.

But this year, Roma's no-front strategy has become more mature, and it has become a strong enemy of AC Milan. However, Ancelotti still has not found the tactical key to breaking the no-front strategy. In this way, it is reasonable for AC Milan to be completely passive in the first half and concede another goal.
