Chapter 307 Who Can Stop It?!
"I'll go... What happened during the halftime break?" In the player channel, when I saw the Tottenham players who were completely different from the momentum at the end of the first half, Gattuso, who was originally a little proud, was shocked and whispered to Pirlo standing beside him, "Andre, the situation is wrong. Just fifteen minutes have passed, why are these guys full of vitality again like nothing? This is not scientific at all!"
When Pirlo heard this, he immediately looked at the opposite side and found that the morale of the Tottenham players in front of him was obviously on an upward trend, and his fighting spirit was even stronger than before the beginning of the final!
Seeing this scene, Pirlo's face suddenly became extremely solemn: "No matter whether science or not is scientific or not. However, I can at least confirm one thing now, that is..."
"The second half of the game will definitely not be as easy as we thought!"
"To be honest, I am really happy to see that you have such ideological awareness and mental preparation." At this time, Maldini's voice came from behind the two, with a hint of relief in his tone, "Remember, we must not relax our vigilance just because we are temporarily leading in the score. Otherwise, the humiliation given to us by La Corunia last year is likely to be staged again today!"
"Captain, just give me ten thousand hearts!" When he noticed Martini's existence, Pirlo and Gattuso quickly turned around and replied, "We promise you that the matter of La Coruna will never repeat today! This UEFA Champions League trophy will definitely belong to our AC Milan!"
"Haha, then I'm looking forward to your performance. Be prepared. I think the opponent's offense in the second half should be more fierce than before." Regarding Pirlo and Gattuso's confident speech, Maldini just said this, then smiled and patted the two of them on the shoulders and quietly walked to the forefront of the team, making the final adjustments for the upcoming second half.
Sure enough, after the second half, Tottenham players launched a fierce attack from both wings to AC Milan's defense line according to George's tactical arrangement during the break, under the command of Alonso and Davis!
You should know that AC Milan's two starting full-backs are Maldini, who is about to be 37 years old and Kafu, who will be 35 years old in two weeks. Although they still have extremely outstanding performance this season, and have completely frozen the wings of Ronaldo and Robben in the first half of the game, even so, they are actually veterans entering the dusk period of their careers, and their physical recovery abilities are far from comparable when they were young. Therefore, facing the impact of Robben and Robben, although Maldini and Kafu's defense zones look as stable as Mount Tai, the fact is that as time goes by, the two seem to be increasingly unable to do so when they defend!
Although Maldini at his peak was known as the world's number one left-back, don't forget that when he was in his early twenties, he was defeated by his opponent when facing the successive attacks of Shalimov and Kanchersky. Therefore, when he was facing a side attack group with excellent speed and technology and explosive impact, Maldini was actually quite hard-working.
For example, this time, Robben, who was on the right, faced Maldini, who was waiting for the team, did not use any fancy fake moves, but instead pretended to pass the ball to Carl who was inserted from the back and accelerated directly and forced a breakthrough!
Seeing this, Maldini was about to go up and intercept it immediately, but he didn't hesitate to stagger and was overtaken by the Dutch Pan - obviously, after fighting with the two young people for more than ten minutes, Captain Milan's physical strength finally began to have problems!
However, the experienced Maldini was very wise to immediately take a tactical foul and directly reached out to put Robben down, without giving Robben a chance to cut in and shoot in the goal. Maldini was still very afraid of Robben's incisive shot with a very high threat.
"Arger, can you give me the opportunity to take the free kick this time?" Robben was about to step forward to take the penalty, but Bynes ran over and made a request that surprised the Dutch.
"...Okay." Robben thought for a while, and felt that this was not a big deal, and the free throw position was too far and it was not easy to shoot directly, so he agreed readily, "Be careful when the free throw is done, don't let the opponent take the opportunity to counterattack."
"No problem, I will pay attention to this." Seeing Robben agreed to his request, Bynes nodded gratefully to the Dutchman, then walked towards the free throw point, and began to prepare to take the free kick under the supervision of the referee!
Since the boss chose to believe me instead of letting Vermullen play the left, I have to repay his trust with practical actions! Bynes was very grateful for George's arrangement to enter the starting lineup. So, when AC Milan took the lead at the beginning of the game because of his rash foul, although Bynes didn't say anything and no one blamed him for it, he felt extremely guilty, thinking that he was the culprit who caused the team to fall into the half-time game and fell behind by three goals!
Shaking his head and leaving all these thoughts behind his head, Bynes took a deep breath to calm down his mind, and pointed at the familiar figure in the crowd, a brief and powerful run-up, and then used his left foot to pass the ball directly to AC Milan's penalty area!
In terms of personal ability, Bynes is now only at the level of the main players of the mid- and lower-level teams in the Premier League, and his physical fitness is not outstanding. However, he trains with Ribery and Ronaldo every day, and a coaching team with a very professional level has formulated a training plan for him, which has greatly polished Bynes's skills. It can be said that Bynes has now achieved considerable achievements in set pieces and crossing, which is enough to become his capital to gain a foothold in the top league!
In this way, Bynes' free kick flew accurately towards Drogba's position. However, in order to form a real shooting opportunity, Drogba still needs to deal with Stam behind him!
Since Nesta has been troubled by injuries over the years, it is difficult to fight against the opponent's forward again. Therefore, the work of dealing with a powerful center like Drogba was naturally left to the stronger Stam to handle. The Dutch also performed quite conscientiously. From the beginning of this game to now, Stam has followed Drogba unceasingly, without giving the latter the space to shoot calmly!
However, this time, Drogba did not care about Stam's movements. The Ivorian Warcraft, who focused all his attention on the ball, took a small step back, and then jumped high with Stam, preparing to head the ball directly!
At this time, a surprising scene appeared: the two people who jumped almost at the same time were almost two levels behind this jump! From George's point of view, Drogba was at least one head taller than Stam!
What's going on? Why did Stam jump so short this time? Although he noticed Stam's abnormality at the first time, when the ball was already close in front of him, Drogba did not have time to think about this issue. Instead, he subconsciously exerted force on his waist and abdomen, using his height advantage to directly hit the AC Milan goal 11 meters away!
Drogba's header was not only strong but also extremely tricky. The most important thing is that for some reason, the ball still had a small arc when flying, which undoubtedly further increased the difficulty of Dida's save!
It's over! With his rich goalkeeper experience, Dida, who made a save action, immediately judged that he could not save this shot. He could only watch the ball pushed out by Drogba in despair and drew an arc in the air, rubbing the lower edge of the crossbar and flew into the far corner of the goal!
One to three! In the 56th minute of the game, young player Bynes used a free kick in the frontcourt to assist Drogba in scoring, helping Tottenham win a goal!
Looking at Mehuto Gonzalez pointing to the right hand in the middle of the stadium, Drogba shook his arms and let out a long roar to the sky with excitement. After suppressing for nearly fifty minutes, the Ivorian Warcraft finally discovered that AC Milan's seemingly impregnable defense line was not as indestructible as he imagined!
It turned out that I had reached the height that I could only look up but could not touch at all! It was not until this time that Drogba realized that it was not that Stam had not shown his true skills, but that he had unknowingly broken through the original shackles and reached a new level and height!
Facing Drogba who suddenly rose to the level, Stam, who was unprepared for this, would inevitably make a mistake in judgment when caught off guard, which led to him making a mistake in the defense of insufficient jump height, which in turn led to the concealment of the goal!
"The boss is right! Now I do have the ability to win any central defender!" While thinking this, Drogba rushed into the goal of AC Milan, picked up the ball and ran to the middle of the stadium. Although his confidence increased, Drogba was not blinded by this goal. He still clearly remembered that Tottenham is still the side behind the score, and he needs to seize every minute and every second to win the score back!
At the same time, George, who saw Drogba using his physical fitness to force Stam and win back a game for the team, turned around and slapped the old Charlie beside him to celebrate! Judging from Drogba's performance just now, George is already very sure that under the butterfly effect he brought, Drogba has now reached the height of a top center earlier than his previous life, becoming the super monster that scares the defenders of the world!
The courage of the monster, who can stop it in the world?!
