Under Sampdoria's focus, Chen Zhuofan and Chen Zhuofani were not as sharp as in the previous two games. There was a stalemate at the top of the first half. Near the end of the first half, Sampdoria's Swiss left-back Qi
Gle seized the opportunity of a counterattack and broke through Milan's defense to score from a small angle.
Although the ranking is only 10th so far this season, Sampdoria is a traditional strong team after all, with a certain foundation, and Ziegler, who just turned 25, is in particularly exciting condition today.
Except that Sampdoria is not weak, this is only the "Milan second team" after all, especially the defense line composed of Odo, Bonera, Papa and Zambrotta, together with Antonini and Nesta
, the four-man combination of Thiago Silva and Abate still has a certain gap.
At the same time, Allegri also thought about something. Chen Zhuo and Ruud van Nistelrooy started the third consecutive game. Chen Zhuo's state did not seem to have much ups and downs, but Ruud van Nistelrooy's state was worse than that of the previous two games.
Discounted, it has been 11 years. Ruud van Nistelrooy, who was born in 1976, is already 35 years old. Time is not forgiving...
In the first half of the game, Allegri arranged for Chen Zhuo and Boateng to double as attacking midfielders, and Van Nistelrooy had a single arrow. Regarding the phenomenon that Ruud van Nistelrooy's physical strength affected his poor condition, Allegri also made timely adjustments.
At the beginning of the second half, "bad boy" Cassano came on as a substitute for Van Nistelrooy.
Just like Ibrahimovic took the initiative to participate in the quarter-finals, Cassano also took the initiative to participate in the quarter-finals. For the same reason as Ibrahimovic, both of them are fighting. The difference is that Ibrahimovic and Chen Zhuo
Fighting, but Cassano is competing with Sampdoria.

AC Milan has many "thorns", and the newcomer Cassano is definitely one of them. Although he has only been at AC Milan for less than a month, Cassano's "bad boy" name has been "renowned" in the world for a long time.
Cassano, who was born in 1982, is now 17 years old. He was called a "genius boy" in Bari in 1999 when he was 17 years old. At that time, his superb skills and bad temper had already begun to show off.
After joining Roma in the 20102 season, he entertained the audience with many wonderful goals and assists on the court, but he always had a bad relationship with the players and coaches off the court. In the 2004 season, German star Voller resigned after coaching Roma for just one month. According to rumors,
Cassano, the "ball tyrant", was too pampered by the senior management of the Roma club, which made the Germans who always believed in strict discipline and results feel uncontrollable.
After transferring to Real Madrid in 2006, Cassano's condition has been in a sluggish state, and he also had frequent disputes with head coach Capello. In less than a year, Real Madrid loaned him to Sampdoria. A year later
Official transfer.
Ruud was also at Real Madrid in the 2007 season. At that time, Van Nistelrooy was in his prime. In his first season with Real Madrid, he wore the La Liga Golden Boot and became the first person to win the Golden Boot in three different European leagues.
Players, Cassano and Ruud van Nistelrooy cannot be compared in this regard. Therefore, although the two play for Real Madrid, they basically have no intersection with each other.
Sampdoria performed well in the first season after returning to Sampdoria in 2008, and also performed well in the 2009-10 season, so Sampdoria was able to qualify for the Champions League and compete with Hamburg for the group stage tickets.
When people thought that the "bad boy" had grown up and matured, Cassano broke out again and insulted club president Garrone in public. The club also punished Cassano by suspending training and suspension for the winter break.
He was sent away from the team soon.
Cassano did not reflect on himself and reflect on himself. Instead, he felt aggrieved. He felt that he had apologized to Garrone and everything should be fine between the two parties. Unexpectedly, the club abandoned him, which made Cassano full of resentment.
.
The thoughts of a bad boy are beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

The Italian Cup has become Allegri's actual training ground. In the second half, while replacing Cassano, Allegri also removed midfielder Strasser and put Boateng in the midfielder position.
Push Inzaghi to the front line and try the "Chen Zhuo-Cassano-Inzaghi" offensive combination that worked well for a short period of time in training.
Unlike Ruud, the "king of the small penalty area", Cassano is not the kind of shooter who scores goals frequently, but his assists and passing ability are unmatched among forwards, and he can deliver precise through balls.
, long passes and pick passes, especially good at passing with his right foot. In Serie A, he has recorded "double-double" three times, which means that the number of goals and assists in the season has exceeded 10.
One of the reasons for recruiting Cassano during the winter break is to let Cassano partner with Ibrahimovic and become the "ammunition player" who delivers cannonballs to Ibrahimovic after breaking through on the right wing.
Therefore, the most directly visible effect of the "Chen Zhuo-Cassano-Inzaghi" offensive combination designed by Allegri is that Chen Zhuo and Cassano deliver ammunition to Inzaghi, and Inzaghi takes the shot.
Goal.
However, this is just a basic idea. In fact, the results of this game have exceeded Allegri's expectations.
Against his old club with a long history of feud, Casanogue made a strong showing. In the second half, he contributed two assists, and the goal scorer was Chen Zhuo. The goal was scored by grabbing points in the penalty area, using Inzaghi.
way!
This is the cooperation model proposed by Inzaghi, and it has worked well in the Milan team's team training. The specific details are that Cassano passes after the breakthrough, and Inzaghi takes Chen Zhuo to run together. The opponent is familiar with Inzaghi.
Because of his characteristics, he will inevitably be guarded against him in the penalty area, but Inzaghi's running route is only a containment. Chen Zhuo, who follows closely behind Inzaghi, is the one who completes the final shot!
To use an analogy, Inzaghi is like the front and chassis of a tractor, and Chen Zhuo is the artillery being towed by him. Inzaghi is also the artillery sighting radar, reporting accurate coordinates to Chen Zhuo, so that
Chen Zhuo unleashed earth-shattering super firepower!
This is again like the partnership between Luca Toni and Baggio. Luca Toni helped Baggio to open up space and allowed Baggio to score. The combined situation showed the power of one plus one than two!
Among the world's top forwards, Inzaghi does not have Baggio's skills, Vieira's strong body, or the lightning-fast dribbling speed of Ronaldo or Henry. He even rarely dribbles the ball and runs long distances. However,
Relying on his ability to report opportunities in front of the goal and his diligence and love for football, he has deservedly entered the ranks of world-class forwards.
As he gets older, Inzaghi uses less and less powerful volleys to score goals. Instead, he relies on good movement, positioning, and explosive acceleration at the moment of starting to get rid of defensive players and score the ball lightly.
, so the world football community calls Inzaghi the "old goblin" and calls him a striker who is more terrifying without the ball than with the ball.

"After this game, perhaps we would also say that even if there were no assists and no goals, and even if he never touched the ball during the entire attack, you will find that half of the credit for the entire goal is due to
Credit goes to him! The main thing is that he can do it, super Pippo! Filippo Inzaghi!" When Gilardiza was explaining the game to this moment, he suddenly changed his "venomous" style and switched to a sensational route.
This great change moved everyone very much.
"After Patton scored a goal, we turned around and pulled up Pippo, who collided with the opponent's players and fell to the ground. We could clearly see Pippo's wrinkles. God, it's been nineteen years! We watched Pippo play football back then.
I was a child when I was young, and now my children can almost play football, but Pipo is still playing football. Whenever I see Pipo, I always feel, hey, I am still young, you
Look, Pippo is still playing football on the court..."
"We saw Pipo waving to the bad boys to come and celebrate together. These three... haha, they are all old guys. Even the youngest bad boy Cassano is already) years old. The three old guys combined
He is almost 100 years old, and it is very creative for Allegri to come up with such a powerful combination for this centenarian!"
He is almost 100 years old! Cassano is 30 years old, Chen Zhuo is 30 years old, and Inzaghi, who was born in 1973, is already 38 years old.
The final score was fixed at 2:1, AC Milan reversed the victory and advanced to the semi-finals of the Italian Cup.
After the game, "Gazzetta dello Sport" carried a large report on the game, specifically mentioning the "spirit of football" and using words like "touching". Chen Zhuo, who can already read Italian newspapers and pages with the help of a dictionary, read it.
After this report, I couldn’t help but feel sad.
Hamburg, Hong Kong and mainland China, which followed Chen Zhuo, also reported on this game from different angles. However, almost all media gave Inzaghi full marks to his performance in this game!
(five)
After three consecutive starts, four assists and four goals, including two assists as a substitute, Chen Zhuo's state cannot be described without being hot.
However, Allegri still arranged for Chen Zhuo to rest in the 22nd round. There were a total of 7 games in January. Chen Zhuo started 3 games and came on the bench in 1 game. The attendance rate is already very high. The second half of the season has just begun.
There are also the Coppa Italia and Champions League knockout rounds. Allegri doesn't want to waste Chen Zhuo in one go, but it is better to keep the situation steady.
In the 22nd round of the away game to Catania, Chen Zhuo, who was not included in the squad, did not go with the team to Catania, but appeared in the stands when Inter Milan played against Palermo.
As a result, Chen Zhuo was caught on camera many times during this game, which also aroused many speculations. In fact, Chen Zhuo was just taking Zhan Hong and Zhan Ge to watch a live game nearby. Originally, he also wanted to take Zhan Hong and Zhan Ge to follow the team.
We went to Catania together, but the distance is really too far. Zhan Hong and Zhan Ge also need time for tutoring recently. There is a certain gap between them and children of the same age. In the initial stage, especially the language learning stage, they still have to eat.
Somewhat painful.
"What, you want me to ask Cesar for your autograph? You are really creative. I'm not familiar with them, so that's for sure. Okay, okay, remember to remind me when I compete with them later! I
When the time comes, ask him to exchange the jersey for you." Regarding Zhan Song's request, Chen Zhuo said that he would seriously consider it. (To be continued.)
