Super Marshal

With Atletico Madrid tying the score, both sides began to play relatively conservatively.

AC Milan conceded three goals in a row and lost all their energy. It is only natural to seek stability.

On the other hand, Atlético Madrid is worried about Inzaghi, who is cruising in the frontcourt. He dare not take risks easily, and is unwilling to make mistakes again. It is inevitable to worry about some defense.

As a result, the game quickly became somewhat stalemate.

Atlético Madrid controlled possession and rhythm, but AC Milan held firmly in their own half.

The twenty-two players on both sides were constantly consuming each other's physical energy in this long stalemate.

Even after the right back Dario Srna fell to the ground with cramps and Gao Han had to make a substitution, Roberto, who had a better defensive ability, was used as the right back, and he did not dare to continue to increase the attack.

"The game has progressed so far, and both sides have lacked bold adventures, or in other words, there should be no unique moves."

"AC Milan has Shevchenko and Rivaldo on the bench. It is doubtful whether Ancelotti will replace them. After these two superstars play, will the Rossoneri take the initiative to press? Come out and attack, that's another problem."

"Atletico Madrid also has variables. Center forward Kiko and teenager Cristiano Ronaldo are players who can change the way they play on the field. Therefore, it is difficult for us to guess what changes the two coaches will adopt. .”

"Now the game is about 70 minutes away, and we see that the two coaches are still silent."

"The fans in the stands are still shouting enthusiastically, and the fans of both sides are also fighting."

"But we have to say that from Atletico Madrid tying the score to now, the scene is indeed a bit dull, far less exciting than before, but this is the final, and no one wants to make mistakes easily."

A luxurious stretched Rolls-Royce slowly drove into the Marriott Hotel near Manchester Airport and stopped firmly at the gate.

The lobby manager of the hotel obviously knew the distinguished guests who were staying and greeted them immediately.

The car door opened, and the Slavs who had just left Old Trafford got out of the car.

"Welcome, Mr. Abramovich."

"Hello." The Slav Abramovich responded politely.

On the other side, the England glasses also got out of the car.

"Hello, Mr. Harris."

Kesh Harris just nodded lightly, as a response, and quickly caught up with Abramovich.

"The acquisition of the team went smoothly. Both the government and the fans have basically agreed to our acquisition. Next, I will quickly arrange manpower to follow up. I believe it can be completed by the end of the month."

Kesh Harris walked beside Abramovich, confidently introducing the latest progress of the project at hand.

He is the most famous football investment expert in the City of London, England, and runs a bank specializing in sports investment projects. Over the past few years, almost all foreign capital acquisitions of Premier League teams have been through his hands.

This is why the Russian oligarch in front of him will walk with him.

He was interested in the Premier League team, and after several twists and turns, he chose the London team Chelsea.

"You tell that old man that I am very dissatisfied with his behavior, and he must explain to me why the team suddenly decided to sell two main players after the winter break, and resulted in only one player being ranked at the end of the season. Fifth in the Premier League, not even in the Champions League!"

Abramovich seems to be still affected by the Champions League final at Old Trafford, and he is in a bad mood. Mentioning those bastard things about Chelsea chairman Betts adds fuel to the fire.

On the contrary, as a football investment expert, Kesh Harris is a bit familiar.

After Abramovich watched Atletico Madrid's game against Manchester United, he made up his mind to acquire a Premier League team, and quickly selected Chelsea and conducted in-depth negotiations.

Chelsea Bates is not a good stubble either. After learning that there is no way to make a big deal, and seeing Abramovich's enthusiasm for the team, he sold two players during the winter break. Cash out, want to maximize your own interests.

Unexpectedly, the team unexpectedly lost to Liverpool in the final battle for the Champions League place and missed the next season's Champions League. This made Abramovich, who had decided to buy Chelsea, very dissatisfied.

He originally thought that what he wanted to buy was a Champions League team, but it turned out to be a UEFA Cup team. Who would like that?

As for the practice of Chelsea Bates, this is not surprising.

For the benefit of these chairman bosses in the Premier League, what can't they do?

Bates is considered light!

Kesh Harris understands Abramovich's mood very well, but he is even more aware that this kind of thing is not clear.

"If we continue to entangle this matter with the other party, I am afraid that the transaction will be postponed, and it is very likely that we will miss the summer transfer period."

After hearing this, Abramovich shook his head resentfully, and cursed, "You son of a bitch!"

After speaking, he walked towards the elevator.

Kesh Harris followed him, raising his eyebrows. He seemed to have forgotten that I was also from England.

"You son of a bitch Russian."

But just as Abramovich was about to enter the elevator, there was a movement from the front desk in the lobby.

...

"Oh, Kaka... I didn't hold down the ball!"

"What a pity!"

"If this goal is scored, Atletico Madrid will be reversed!"

"Kaka missed his hat-trick!"

...

Abramovich stopped, turned his head in disbelief, and looked at Kesh Harris, "Did you hear that?"

"What?" Kesh Harris felt a little guilty, he thought he had heard what he just muttered.

"No, live TV, Kaka, what's going on?"

With Kesh Harris in a daze, Abramovich no longer cared about him, turned around and walked quickly to the front desk.

Sure enough, there was a TV there, which was broadcasting the Champions League final live.

It can still be seen on the screen that Atlético de Madrid is controlling the ball, and the person holding the ball is Xavi Alonso, who is signaling his teammates to press forward, and he is about to launch a long pass.

A lot of people gathered at the front desk of the hotel, and they all looked very nervous.

"The score..." Abramovich leaned closer, narrowing his eyes, "...three to three?"

"What?" Kesh Harris, who was chasing after him, was also taken aback, "Three to three?"

"Is there a mistake?" Abramovich was stunned.

Wasn't it zero to three in the first half and Atletico Madrid fell behind?

Why is the score now three to three? Could it be Atletico Madrid chasing three goals in a row?

How is this possible?

"Oh, what's there to make a fuss about? Atletico Madrid scored three goals in a row in the first ten minutes to tie the score. Now they are actively attacking and preparing for a reversal." Someone next to him explained impatiently.

"What?" Abramovich was shocked.

Immediately afterwards, he regretted it.

From zero to three to three to three, how many wonderful things did he miss?

Why did you leave the stadium so early?

"Who scored the goal?" Kesh Harris was also stunned.

"Kaka, scored twice, and the other one is Villa." The person next to him replied, and then he did not forget to praise, "Atletico Madrid is so fucking tenacious, and they all lost to that." It was even possible to tie the game, and now it is even going to be reversed."

Both Abramovich and Kesh Harris were dumbfounded.

Seventy-two minutes had passed, and the score was still 3-3. The scene was controlled by Atletico Madrid, but they still failed to break through AC Milan's defense.

The two knew that they had missed a golden opportunity to witness a classic Champions League final live.

"Seventy-three minutes."

Inside Old Trafford, assistant coach Cantarero walked to Gao Han's side and reminded him.

Gao Han stood on the sidelines, staring at the field, only nodded, not speaking.

"Many players have tried their best, especially Kaka, which consumes a lot of energy. I'm afraid..."

If we say Atletico Madrid's most threatening player in the second half, it must be Kaka. The three equalizing goals came from his feet, but after AC Milan switched to a four-three-two formation, it increased the pressure on him. defense.

But even so, he still found several opportunities and made threats.

But it also paid the price of excessive physical exertion.

The players in the frontcourt are also similar, Villa and Torres are also consumed a lot, as are Deco and Marcos Senna.

Of course, Atletico Madrid's players are exhausted, and AC Milan's players are not much better.

At this point in the game, it is the willpower and determination that will test both sides.

After Gao Han listened to his assistant's report, he still didn't speak.

Cantarero was a little impatient, "Should we make another substitution?"

After hearing this, Gao Han thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It's not the time yet."

"not the right time yet?"

"Well, wait a little longer."

Cantarero didn't understand, it's been more than 70 minutes, why is it not the right time?

Wait, when will we have to wait?

But he also understands that Gao Han has always done things properly, and his judgment is very accurate, so although he is full of doubts, he doesn't say much, but he is always a little uneasy.

It was not easy to catch up to three to three, but don't make it to the end, and the success falls short.

"Yes, Carlos."

Cantarero, who turned to leave, stopped, "What's the matter?"

"Get the players on the bench warmed up and ready to play, especially..."

After working with Gao Han for three years, he gave Cantarello a wink, and he understood what he meant, and immediately took the order.

Not long after, the players on the bench of Atletico Madrid began to go out to warm up in turn, looking like they were ready to change at any time, which made the fans in the stands full of joy when they saw it.

Everyone knows that Gao Han's on-the-spot command is comparable to art, and the substitution is a miracle. It can almost be said that every substitution can rewrite the trend of the game.

In front of the coaching bench of the visiting team, Ancelotti also noticed the movement on the bench of Atletico Madrid.

"This is a smoke bomb." Ancelotti saw through Gao Han's little trick at a glance, "Postposing, playing tricks!"

But a problem had to arise in his heart.

Atlético de Madrid is about to make a substitution, so should AC Milan pre-emptively strike, or should they continue to remain unchanged?

No matter which one you choose, there are definitely risks, especially when the game time is running out.

Another substitution is basically to prepare for overtime and maybe even a penalty shootout.

Is it necessary to replace Gao Han first and disrupt Gao Han's thinking, or wait for Gao Han to make a move first, and then deal with it later?

Ancelotti hesitated.
