Ibrahimovic, who broke out in the last round, became the key target of Juventus in this game. He was knocked down like wood by the opponent many times, which made Ibrahimovic start to get angry with the opponent, and his temper was out of control like a wild horse.
At the 70th minute of the second half, which was the time when he replaced Chen Zhuo in the previous round, Allegri replaced Ibrahimovic. This substitution made Ibrahimovic very dissatisfied. When he came off the field, he refused to shake hands with Chen Zhuo, who replaced him.
, walked directly to the players' tunnel, and Ibrahimovic picked up half a bottle of mineral water from his feet and threw it at the Juventus fans in the stands...
This action also resulted in Ibrahimovic receiving a fine of 5,000 euros and a three-game ban in the league.
The successive changes made Allegri very depressed. First, Gattuso was eliminated in the Champions League, and then Ibrahimovic was eliminated in the league. The two absolute main players were also punished additionally. This is not good news in the critical period of the league!
It is also a coincidence that Ibrahimovic was absent from the three rounds of the league, namely the home game against Bari on March 13, the away game against Palermo on March 3, and the home game against Inter Milan, the season's strongest rival for the championship, on April 3.
This is a game worth 6 points!
Fortunately, Chen Zhuo has been in good form recently, which prevented Allegri from being particularly depressed.

"Coach, I very much understand your desire to protect the league, but... I'm sorry, coach, can I speak my mind?" Chen Zhuo said, regarding Allegri's suggestion that Chen Zhuo play away to Tottenham on March 26.
Chen Zhuo was unwilling to continue to be the starter when he was at Tottenham. Since Allegri was giving suggestions rather than orders, Chen Zhuo wanted to fight for it.
Allegri nodded and said: "Yes Patton, I am communicating with you very seriously. If you have anything to say, just say it boldly and I will definitely consider it seriously."
"I am 30 years old, coach. This is my second season in the European League and my first time in the Champions League... Mr. Allegri, during this time I have been visiting Pippo whenever I have time, often in
When I left him, I would think, what if the person lying there
It's me, what should I do? I even think about what if I get injured again, just like when I was 19 years old... Sometimes I feel uncomfortable thinking about it, and I have to park the car on the side of the road to calm down...
"When Chen Zhuo said this, his mood fluctuated greatly, and his chest heaved violently.
Allegri looked at Chen Zhuo seriously and said nothing.
"Ten years ago, I have always been a loser. In the 10 years since I was injured at the age of 19, I have not won any individual awards. I have never had a chance to show off my hard-earned free kicks. Occasionally I went out and scored a goal.
I don’t get encouragement from long-range shots. The coach will say to me after the game, ‘Your task is to defend well! You can’t win football by playing blindly’...” Chen Zhuo said that he felt a little sad.
feeling.
Allegri frowned, looking puzzled. He had never heard of such a strange news.
"Maybe it sounds ridiculous to you, but it's true. I have a friend named Gao Leilei. He once told me a true story. He once scored consecutive goals as a substitute. Later, when the Yanjing Guoan team fell behind,
The fans shouted his name in unison, but he did not play. After the game, his coach told him that the more the fans shouted your name, the less I would let you play..." Chen Zhuo said.
This is a true story. Gao Leilei's coach is the famous Jin Zhiyang. "The more the fans shout your name, the less I will let you play." This sentence was later told by Jin Zhiyang himself to the media. Why, Jin Zhiyang did not
explain.
"Mr. Allegri, what I want to say is that I once stayed in a dark league for 10 years. I only had less than ten substitute appearances each season. In the beginning,
Sometimes, I feel that gold will always shine, but coach, people are not gold, gold will not grow old or die, but people will. In those years of waiting, I changed from a young boy to a
Now 30
At the age of 10, his career has reached the twilight stage..." Chen Zhuo said with emotion: "Mr. Coach, what I said may not be coherent. What I mean is that I treat every game I play as if it is the last one.
Let’s play the game, because I really don’t know what will happen in the future, because I have experienced a lot of things, and I know the fragility of life, and it will end suddenly at a time that no one expects..."
Allegri nodded slightly. Although Chen Zhuo's expression was a bit confusing, Allegri felt that he generally understood it.
"There are only four games this month. Although there are three games in the seven days from the 13th to the 13th and they are all away games, but
There will be a two-week adjustment period after the number. I am a player for the Serie A giant AC Milan. It is my job to prepare for the third-line battle or even the fourth-line battle!" Chen Zhuo looked at Allegri,
He said solemnly: "Mr. Allegri, I mean, I can adapt to this."
With such intensity of the game, even if you use all the substitutes in the game on the 16th, I hope you can arrange for me to start. I hope I can play a few more Champions League games in my lifetime. I hope I can be a world-class player in the Champions League.
I want to have more experience in the game... Anyway, thank you, coach..."
After talking about me in a long-winded way, Chen Zhuo bowed deeply towards Allegri.
Allegri stood up and patted Chen Zhuo's shoulder heavily. Chen Zhuo raised his head and the two looked at each other.

"Actually, I am also a loser, especially in my playing career. I have never won a championship." Allegri smiled self-deprecatingly and said: "Patton, before I listen to you say this
, I once comforted myself by saying that if I can play in the Italian Serie A team, I am already a winner, and there are many players who can only hang out in Serie B and C, haha."
"When I just heard you say this, I kept thinking about who I am, a success or a failure." Allegri put his hand on Chen Zhuo's shoulder and said: "In the second half of last season, at that time
I was still in Cagliari. After Galliani talked to me about you, I have been paying attention to your games. When you were in Hamburg, we were fighting on two fronts. I admire your hard work in the final stage.
of……"
Taking a deep breath, Allegri said: "Patton, frankly speaking, the reason why I gave up the Champions League is because I really want to win my first Serie A championship... You have also seen the Champions League schedule.
Even if we defeat Tottenham with all our strength, our next opponents may be Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern, and Manchester United, and we can only meet three at most out of the four of them... Patton, I think you understand.
What did I express? Yes, I chose to give up when there was no fight."
"You just said that you play every game as if it is the last game in your life. I am very touched, Patton. I still remember your evaluation of Benitez and Del Neri at the beginning of the season. Haha, now again
Look, Benitez has really left, and it is no longer possible for Del Neri to get the letter
Ren, and the reason why I am still in a stable position as coach is because I have clearly prioritized..." Allegri said in a very gentle tone: "When you first returned to the team two months ago, I did
What you put in the Champions League and Coppa Italia is also the result of communication with your agent."
"So..." Allegri nodded and said: "Patton, I understand your mood, and I am also very happy that you can open your heart and communicate with me like this. I will give you a formal reply now. All the Champions League and Italian Cup in the future,
You are the starter! I promised you this two months ago, so I will take this as a promise!"
"Thank you, coach! Thank you!" Chen Zhuo said gratefully: "Don't worry! I will never give up on the league and I will shoulder my responsibility!"
"No!" Allegri smiled and said: "Patton, that is my responsibility! We each bear our own responsibilities! Since I agreed to let you start in the Champions League and Italian Cup, that means I
We will make adjustments and will not let you deal with it with an irresponsible attitude of giving up."
"What do you mean..." Chen Zhuo didn't understand what Allegri meant.
Allegri said: "What I mean is, you go all out to play in the Champions League and Coppa Italia. I will strive to win these two competitions while ensuring the league!"
Looking at Chen Zhuo's slightly surprised expression, Allegri smiled and said: "According to you, I am the coach of a giant Serie A team, so fighting on the third or even the fourth front is my regular task. Although I say that I am a failure, but
In fact, my playing career was more successful than Mourinho's, haha!"
Chen Zhuo also smiled and said: "Your coaching career will be more successful than his..."
"This is flattering, haha!" Allegri said: "But now, I have been pulled down a few positions by him. If I want to catch up with him, I have to start by adapting to multi-line combat! Haha
, but I also emphasized just now that I will strive to win these two events on the premise of ensuring the league, so you have to work harder!"
"Don't worry, coach, I will definitely do it!" Chen Zhuo replied, holding Allegri's extended hand as it was a promise and agreement between the two of them.
(Four)
In the first round of the match on March 13, Allegri unexpectedly sent out a full substitute lineup, and Chen Zhuo was also placed on the bench. His attitude of preserving strength for the Champions League in midweek was clear at a glance.
Galliani felt very strange about this. The task given to Allegri this season is to win the league and appear in the Champions League group. There is no requirement for the Italian Cup. Allegri's strategy has always been very clear. Now he wants to win the Champions League.
Going one step further, the senior management of the Milan club are certainly happy. After all, there are high bonuses for every Champions League game, and Milan will also receive home ticket revenue. But what made Allegri change his strategy of giving up on the Champions League?
, Galliani did not understand.
Galliani couldn't understand. Just two days ago, Allegri proposed to let Chen Zhuo serve as Milan's executive coach in the Champions League. The top management of the Milan club rejected it without hesitation. This is Milan, not Hamburg.
There are ten people in the back row who won’t have the chance to be the executive coach!
He wanted to give up two days ago, but he has to fight for it again these two days. Allegri's actions made Galliani feel incredible. (To be continued.)
