When Pandev hit the ball and hit the football that Dida had pounced on, neither AC Milan defenders Nesta nor Maldini reacted at all.
I thought Pandev would appear in this key position like this.
You must know that Pandev had never participated in this attack before.
When Pandev appeared like a ghost in front of the goal and dealt AC Milan a fatal blow, all these two world-class defenders could do was watch Pandev score the goal with a shovel.
Before that, not only did they have a blind spot in their vision, but there was also a vacuum in their thinking.
In fact, not only Nesta and Maldini, but the entire AC Milan made such a mistake in this attack.
They fell into a fixed mindset and thought that Lazio's attack must be another long-range shot. However, they did not expect that Lazio had changed and stopped shooting from long range. Suddenly, a pass was passed to Rocchi.
When Rocky got the ball, everyone thought that Rocky would definitely shoot it himself.
Unexpectedly, another unexpected thing, Rocky passed the football to David Silva on the left rib without hesitation.
After David Silva's shot was saved by Dida, everyone thought that the football danger signal had been lifted, but once again, unexpectedly, Pandev appeared where he was supposed to appear...
A series of unexpected events reflected AC Milan's rigid thinking in defense.
Their traditional slow defensive thinking couldn't keep up with Lazio's fast-changing offensive rhythm.
Do you think I'm going to take a long shot?
No!
I passed the ball!
You think I'm going to shoot?
No!
I passed the ball!
You thought I was shooting this time!
No!
I even ambushed someone in front of the door!
This is the tactical thought that Chang Sheng instilled in Lazio. Keep the movement of football and the flow of thinking. Never let your thinking become rigid. Never say "this is impossible" or "can't be done". There is nothing that cannot be done, only
You can't think of it.
In this change, it is an offense that makes the opponent elusive.
This is why even when Chang Sheng told Di Canio the tactics, he didn't think it was a leak.
Because you can never guess what is going on in your opponent's mind at this moment...

After scoring the goal, Pandev got up from the ground and ran wildly around the San Siro Stadium, venting his annoyance and depression.
Last season, as an addition to Stankovic's move to Inter Milan, he was traded from Inter Milan to Lazio.
He finally got a chance to play in Lazio, but his performance was mediocre. He made 25 appearances in the league and scored three goals. Such performance cannot be justified.
After the arrival of the new head coach, he originally thought that he would become a member of the huge cleaning list.
Unexpectedly, he watched his teammates around him leave the team one by one, but he remained motionless.
It wasn't until the new head coach announced that the club's transfer was over that he was surprised to find that he had finally managed to stay in Lazio!
There are so many players who are more famous and better than him, such as Di Canio, such as Corradi, such as Fiore, they have all left the team, but he himself stayed.
He didn't quite understand why he could impress the new head coach, who was said to be ruthless.
Not long after, Chang Sheng had a conversation with Pan Defu alone.
Let him stay in the team for training with peace of mind, the team needs his contribution.
Although the two of them did not say more, Pandev gained confidence and strength from this conversation.
The manager who can win the Champions League said he needs me!
That's enough!
This is enough for me to train hard and live up to the head coach's expectations... no, it's the boss's expectations!
Pandev doesn't know much about tactics. He only knows that the team needs him, so he will train hard.
In fact, Chang Sheng really values Pan Dev.
Because Pandev has a very special ability.
That is, he can play with almost any forward without any discomfort.
His shooting skills are just a little bit poor, but that doesn’t matter. Chang Sheng can just train Pandev with special shooting skills. In addition, in his own tactics, an excellent forward who can score many goals often does not need very good shooting skills.
What is needed is excellent positioning awareness, super running ability, and the spirit of never giving up.
And Pandev has all of these.
Pandev is an obedient forward who is willing to abide by the coach's tactical requirements. He will do his best to complete every task assigned to him by the coach, even if he gives 200% of the task.
Whatever the head coach asked him to do, he did it without any complaints.
This may be related to his previous experience of wandering on loan and failing.
It made him feel less restless, calmed down, and able to withstand loneliness.
There are fewer and fewer such forwards.
That's why Chang Sheng left Benzema alone and let Pandev play the main starting role.
Benzema could only play as a substitute for Pandev.
Benzema has talent, but he is too arrogant and needs to be polished.
So Changsheng put Benzema on the bench, and didn't even give Benzema the skill "This is how geniuses are made".
He doesn't mind that Benzema grows slower. He even hopes that Benzema will grow slower so that he can realize that he is not a unique genius and polish him.

Pandev's goal at the San Siro Stadium did not slow down Lazio's offensive. When they celebrated the goal, Rocchi had already given a message to the team, asking them to continue to strengthen their offense and strive to continue to advance.
Goal, score more goals.
"The boss said don't be merciful, you can make as much as you can!"
Rocky clenched his fists as he spoke.
He thought it was so domineering that the boss could say such a thing against AC Milan at the San Siro Stadium! Is there any team in Italy that dares to say how many goals it can score against AC Milan? I’m afraid not even one!
But we at Lazio dare!
※※※
Therefore, after losing the ball, AC Milan's players took advantage of the kick-off opportunity to attack aggressively, hoping to quickly equalize the score. However, they did not expect to encounter an even more fierce offensive from Lazio!
When Kaká was counterattacked by Jose Passarella who used his excellent prejudgment to score the ball, Lazio quickly launched an attack. From defense to attack, it only took them a split second!
When AC Milan reacted, Lazio's football had already advanced to their 30-meter zone!
"Lazio's counterattack was too fast! So fast! Not only did they run fast, but they also passed the ball fast! They were so fast that we couldn't keep up!"
The narrator yelled exaggeratedly.
The AC Milan fans didn't even bother scolding the surprised commentator. At this time, all the AC Milan players in front of the TV were staring at the TV screen, for fear of missing something.
They were praying that Lazio's attack failed.
But what a pity, God was distracted.
Sorry, their prayers were not heard.

After receiving the pass from the backcourt, David Silva did not pass it to anyone, but ran wildly with the ball. Because this was a counterattack, there was a large space in the frontcourt for him to take advantage of. He felt that passing the ball to his teammates
, it would be faster to just dribble the ball by yourself.
After approaching the opponent's 30-meter area, he suddenly cut inside, and instead of continuing in, he dribbled horizontally. At the same time, Rocky was diagonally inserting into the penalty area, and David Silva could pass the ball to Rocky.
In addition to Rocky, Silva can also pass directly to Pandev.
Pandev is in good form and can also threaten AC Milan's goal.
Because it was a quick counterattack, AC Milan's defense was completely torn apart, leaving Silva with many options.
Likewise, AC Milan's defenders also face many choices.
The more options there are, the better it is for the attacker and the worse it is for the defender.
Are they guarding against Silva's long-range shot, or are they guarding against Silva's breakthrough?
Or against Rocky? Or against Pandev?
By the way, Liverani also rushed up...
**! With so many people, which one should we defend against? And we simply don’t have enough manpower. Even if one person defends one, it’s not enough! This is the opponent’s quick counterattack!
Silva has made his choice, and the AC Milan players don't have to worry anymore.
It's simple, David Silva shot!
He took a long shot directly outside the penalty area!
※※※
It stands to reason that he has several ways, all of which are better than shooting directly.
For example, give it to Rocky, or give it to Pandev.
But Silva thought of Chang Sheng's special instructions before the game, to shoot from long range.
He didn't understand why the boss was so confident, but as a former Valencia player, Silva understood the magic of winning.
He thought that since the boss asked him to shoot from as far away as possible, he would shoot from far away!
Believe me, the boss is always right!
In three years in Valencia, this sentence has been proven countless times!
※※※
When Silva shot from long range, the AC Milan players breathed a sigh of relief.
Because in their opinion, this is the second worst option among all options after passing back to Liverani.
If it's a long shot, the goal rate is low. Dida performed well and should have saved the ball... He has saved many such long shots today...
But when they looked back, they were surprised to find that although Dida was flying in the air and stretching his arms as much as possible,... judging from this rhythm, it seemed that he couldn't catch the flying football!
Because Silva's kick has an arc, which can just go around Dida's fingers, and the shot is still... a blind spot!
※※※
"David Silva—Silva!!! Beautiful! World wave!!! Beautiful long shot! The ball went in!! 2:0! Lazio leads AC Milan with two goals in two minutes!"
Amid the roar of the commentator, everyone saw that the football shot by Silva bypassed Dida's hand, grazed the lower edge of the crossbar and went into the goal!
When it rubbed against the lower edge of the beam, it even made a crisp sound when it rubbed against the doorpost!
If it had been higher earlier, the football might have bounced back because it hit the front of the crossbar!
To score or not to score is just a matter of millimeters!
Absolute dead end!
Theoretical blind spot!
What a cunning person! (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
