191 Chapter 191: Toyota Cup (2)

AC Milan missed Nesta today due to injury, Inzaghi and Ambrosini's injuries have not recovered yet, selected to the big list but did not start. Ancelotti played a 4312 formation: goalkeeper Dida, guards Cafu, Costacuta, Maldini and Pancaro. The three midfielders were Gattuso, Pirlo and Seedorf. Kaka appeared as the front midfielder. The frontline partners were Shevchenko and Thomason.

On São Paulo's side, the lineup is not neat. Alessandro, Simprisio and Gian all have injuries. Rojas was forced to change back to the previous 4321 formation. Fabiano took a single arrow. Ricardo and Rico are separated, with Ricardo, Ferreira and teenager Marco Antonio as midfielder, the left defender is Gustavo Neri, the right defender is Gabriel, the center defender. The partners are Lugano and Julio Santos.

From the "star taste" and the popularity of the club, São Paulo is a lot worse, which can be seen from the jersey worn by fans on the spot.

The Yokohama International Arena, which can accommodate 73,000 fans, is almost packed. At least 10,000 of them are wearing AC Milan's blue and black jersey. Among them are hundreds of Italian fans who have come from afar or have lived in Japan. The rest are Japanese fans who love AC Milan.

There are only a few hundred or two fans wearing São Paulo's red and black pattern jersey on white.

The strength comparison between the two sides is also huge. Although São Paulo is a South American champion, only Ricardo has an intercontinental player in the lineup. National players account for nearly half of them, including Fabiano, Ricardo, Gustavo Neri and Lugano. .

The AC Milan side, in addition to Pan Carlo is only national level, either world-class or intercontinental.

However, football matches are not necessarily won by the strong side. Otherwise, what kind of match do you play, showing the statistics of the players on both sides, and the poor ability to automatically admit defeat?

In fact, after the opening, AC Milan did not play well. They have just finished a league game, at this time the players are tired, and there is no strong desire to win. Except for Kaka, who is very active, the others are not very active.

The players in São Paulo are also very tired, but their desire to win is stronger. There are some players who hope to impress AC Milan's coach Ancelotti through their performance in the game, so as to land in Europe, get high salaries, and reach the pinnacle of life.

So in the first 10 minutes of the game, São Paulo took the upper hand. They used a fierce frontcourt to **** AC Milan and could not organize an effective attack at all.

Riccardinho and teenager Antonio both rushed forward and besieged Pirlo, a move that really worked wonders. Pirlo is AC Milan's midfielder. When he was contained, AC Milan was like a rusty machine and it didn't run smoothly.

Once São Paulo grabbed the ball, he handed it over to Ricardo and launched a counterattack on the spot.

In just 10 minutes, São Paulo shot 3 times, scored 1 time, scored 2 corners and 3 free kicks in the frontcourt.

The most threatening attack was that Ricardo avoided the steal from Carford after taking the ball. The flower arrangement passed to the door. Fabiano caught up and shoveled, and kicked the ball directly into Dida's arms. .

AC Milan did not have a shot, it seems to be completely suppressed.

But São Paulo's players dare not take it lightly. With so many big stars in AC Milan, no matter who flashes suddenly, it is possible to change the score.

The defense is not São Paulo's strengths. Although they have the highest number of goals in the league, they have lost the most in the top 7 teams. The defense is not much better than the tofu project.

And today Lugano's partner is not Gian, but Giulio Santos. The 21-year-old made many fatal mistakes this season and grew less than expected. It was only because there were really few people available on the bench. He started.

São Paulo's two full-backs, Gustavo Neri and Gabriel, are also typical offensive and weak defenders. They often attack the opponent's restricted area on a whim and cannot return to defense in time.

Roxas had to run to the side and waved his hands constantly, begging the two full-backs not to be too pressed, and to pay attention to the protection of the defense.

He is very clear that AC Milan is a giant who is snoring. Once awake, the fragile line of defense of São Paulo will soon be revealed.

After 10 minutes, AC Milan finally seemed to adapt to the rhythm of the game. Like the animals after hibernation, they gradually became active, and Shevchenko, Thomason and Kaka began to cause trouble for São Paulo.

"AC Milan's counterattack! Kaka passed the midfield at high speed, used speed to break through Antonio, still dribbled, and passed Ferreira in a flash, Sao Paulo was dangerous!" The commentator on Brazil side shouted Yelled, "Kaka passed the ball, Thomason pulled to the sideline to catch the ball, glanced at it, and kicked it straight! Headed to the goal! Beautiful save, Shevchenko's header was cut Nepal punched the bottom line. "

"This is AC Milan's first shot in this game and it is very threatening. Kaka has grown considerably in the past few months, is more confident, and has better ball control."

"Pirlo controlled the ball, pulled the ball in place to get rid of Ricardo, and made a long pass in the backcourt! Lugano headed the ball to push the ball out of the danger zone. The football did not fly away, and! Kaka chest Stop the ball and shoot directly from the kick! Good danger, slightly off the post! He was also very annoyed, this is a shot about 20 meters, already within his range facing The old owner, Kaka showed no mercy, he showed us the style of a top modern front waist! "

As the game progressed, AC Milan's players gradually recovered and their movements became larger. São Paulo was naturally unwilling to be outdone. South American players were already dirty, and soon both sides won two yellow cards.

"Well!" The referee Ivanov whistled and ran quickly to Maldini, warning a few words and not paying. After Martini argued slightly, he turned around and pulled up Riccardo, who was kicked to the ground.

Ricardo was panting, and he had no emotion for fouling Maldini. Because Martini's moves are clean, they are rushing to the ball instead of hurting them.

He looked up at the time, the game had been going on for 25 minutes. At this point he was feeling a little tired, and the muscles in his legs were a little sore.

The intensity of the confrontation in this game is very high, although it is not as good as the Champions League in the future, but it is already much higher than the Barca League.

In such a fierce confrontation situation, the energy consumption has increased exponentially.
