These speculations were quickly ended at the post-match press conference.
The coach who attended on behalf of AC Milan was also Pan Yi.
After all, this game was completely directed by him and had no direct relationship with head coach Allegri.
"My name is Pan Yi, I am 25 years old and I am from Longguo."
Such a simple self-introduction made many Longguo reporters excited.
They even ignored Ibrahimovic, Nesta and other stars who came to the press conference, and just bombarded Pan Yi.
After all, this thing is so rare!
Apart from anything else, the fact that a 25-year-old can become the assistant coach of a top club like AC is a very eye-catching news in itself.
Not to mention that this young man is actually from the Dragon Kingdom—one of our own!
"Yes, I designed the tactics and directed this game. Thank you Mr. Allegri for giving me this opportunity."
"Yes, I am indeed from the Dragon Kingdom, not Chinese. Don't ask this question again."
"We have just signed several young people in this game, and they all have potential. I am confident that they will grow into real stars in the future."
"Regarding this game, the Changzhou Hengtai team actually played well, but unfortunately they met Milan. I think they will win the Chinese Super League championship or even the AFC Champions League in the future."
"Any suggestions for the national football team? Sorry, I am an employee of Milan now and I only focus on the work of Milan."
"My girlfriend? Sorry, can you just ask about football..."
After the press conference, the topic of Pan Yi exploded on the Internet in Longguo.
Almost all football forums are discussing this young and handsome Milan assistant coach.
"That's great! Our Dragon Kingdom actually has such a coach in AC Milan!"
"Yes, Milan played Changzhou Hengtai like a dog in this game, but this coach personally directed it. The level is very high."
"Nonsense, his level is not high, will Milan want him?"
"Hey, his name is Pan Yi, right? Why do I feel like I've heard his name somewhere?"
"Where have you heard of it? He seems to have never coached in China. He was an assistant coach in Milan. I heard it was even his first official job."
"By the way, I remembered, wasn't there a coach who was banned by the national football team some time ago? His name also seems to be Pan Yi?"
"Where are you thinking? That coach couldn't even be recruited into our U17 youth team, and he became angry in the end. And this one is the real AC Milan coach! I don't know how high he is."
"That's right, if you compare him with our Pan Yi, it's an insult to Pan Yi! I think it's just the same name..."
In the hot discussion for several days, AC Milan ushered in their second preseason game in the Dragon Kingdom, the East Asian team on the sea.
This game will be directed by Tassotti.
He still used the 4132 formation, and the players were mainly old players he was familiar with.
In terms of playing style, this formation is naturally not as offensive as Pan Yi's 433, and is much less oppressive, but it is still quite easy to win against a Chinese League One team like the Maritime East Asia Team.
At the end of the half, the Maritime East Asia team was already beaten.
They fell behind 0:5. Ibrahimovic scored a hat trick in the first half, and Inzaghi and Seedorf also scored a goal.
If Allegri hadn't felt that he wanted to give the host some face and asked Tassotti to hold back in the second half, it would have been a big tragedy in the end.
In this game, Pan Yi watched the whole game.
Shanghai East Asia was suppressed throughout the game, and the performance of their players was lackluster, except for a young forward-Wu Lei.
Although Shanghai East Asia did not make a few effective attacks, Wu Lei still ran diligently, trying his best to get out of space so that his teammates could pass the ball to him.
Considering that Wu Lei is still the only man who can really play in the five major European leagues in the future, Pan Yi specifically talked to him after the game and encouraged him:
"During the 2008 Olympics, you went to the Argentina team to practice with them, and took photos with Messi and Aguero, right?"
"Have you ever thought that one day you could compete with Messi and even score Barcelona's goal?"
"Believe me, as long as you keep working hard, you will do it one day!"
"However, you still have a lot to improve. For example, you need to practice more with your left foot, you need to be more confident when breaking through, and you need to be calmer when doing it alone..."
Although Pan Yi is only 25 years old, he is considered an "old senior" for the martial arts king who is not yet 20 years old this year.
After all, the other party is the coach of AC Milan!
Wu Lei is a sincere child who is open-minded and eager to learn, so naturally he listens to his ears and remembers it in his heart.
The scene of the conversation between the two was broadcast in front of the fans of Dragon Kingdom. Naturally, everyone praised Pan Yi. Although he now works for a big club, he never forgets to give full guidance to the young players of Dragon Kingdom. He really does not forget his roots.
Model.
Some people have even begun to wonder whether Pan Yi might bring Wu Lei to Milan...
Of course, for Pan Yi, this is really just his ardent expectation for Wu Lei.
With Wu Lei's current ability, let alone occupying a non-European quota, even if he can sign him now, he will not be able to play football. It is just a waste of youth.
Now Pan Yi has exposed Wu Lei's weaknesses one by one and asked him to strengthen them in a targeted manner in the future. As for what will happen in the end, it depends on his own destiny.
If there is really obvious progress, then Pan Yi will find an opportunity to bring Wu Lei to Europe, which can also make up for one of Pan Yi's regrets as a fan in his previous life - that is, Wu Lei went to Europe too late in his previous life.
There is no potential left to tap.
AC Milan's third preseason opponent is Beijing Guoan.
At this time, the three international players of the Brazilian team have also returned to the team.
Hey, aren't they participating in the America's Cup? Why did they return so early?
The reason is that the Brazilian team's performance in this America's Cup was very poor.
They had won two consecutive championships, but this time they lost to Paraguay in the quarterfinals and went home early!
As a result, Milan's three Brazilian international players went directly to Dragon Country to join the team after just a few days of vacation.
Allegri also directly sent them in this game.
However, amidst the cheers of tens of thousands of fans at the Workers' Stadium, AC Milan was in no shape and unexpectedly lost the game 1:2. Ibrahimovic also suffered a slight injury during the game and left the game early.<
/p>
This was also the first time Milan lost to Guoan after 1994.
Since Allegri personally directed this game, this defeat also made him feel a bit humiliated.
The post-match press conference ended hastily, and Allegri immediately returned to the hotel and asked Pan Yi and Tassotti to study tactics.
After all, in a few days, the really important official game will be held.
