Today's San Siro Stadium is undoubtedly full again.
Not to mention that tonight is an important Champions League quarter-final match, and the opponent is a giant like Real Madrid. In fact, this is the case in every home game of Milan this season.
If you have good grades and play well, you will of course be loved by the fans.
Coupled with the fact that Pan Yi, a young coach who is highly valued by Dragon Kingdom fans, has also attracted countless Dragon Kingdom people to come for pilgrimage.
So whenever there is a game in Milan, the San Siro Stadium is filled with water inside and outside.
Pan Yi has long been accustomed to the atmosphere at San Siro.
He followed Allegri, walked into the stadium amidst the cheers of the fans, and began to shake hands with the opponent's coaching staff.
When he held Mourinho's hand, Pan Yi clearly felt the madman's hand squeeze it heavily.
Pan Yi looked up and saw Mourinho showing a strange smile, but said nothing.
Pan Yi also smiled at him, and then returned to the home team's bench.
Is this also part of Mourinho’s psychological warfare?
It's a pity that for Pan Yi, who has opened the God's perspective, it is of no use at all.
He only knows one thing: Mourinho today definitely wants to kill Milan, and he wants to kill Milan in a Milan way!
But Pan Yi thinks the same way.
He was already sitting in his seat, looking at the lineups of the two teams on the field.
In Mourinho's 4231, the center forward at the front is still French forward Benzema.
Behind him are attacking midfielder Kaká and two wingers, Cristiano Ronaldo and Di Maria.
Double defensive midfielder Alonso and Khedira.
The defense is lined up with Marcelo, Ramos, Pepe and Arbeloa.
Goalkeeper Casillas.
Basically, it is similar to what Pan Yi predicted.
In fact, Mourinho's attitude today can be seen from the employment of the left back position.
He used Brazilian defender Marcelo, who has a stronger offensive ability, instead of Portuguese defender Coentrao, who is more balanced offensively and defensively.
In this case, Pan Yi's targeted tactics before the game can have better results.
AC Milan's formation is of course still 433, and the lineup is also the regular main force:
Forwards: Mane, Ibrahimovic, Salah.
Midfielder: Kante, Boateng, Gattuso.
Defenders: Gianluca Zambrotta, Thiago Silva, Van Dijk, Abate.
Goalkeeper: Ederson.
Also at the left back position, the coaching staff chose veteran Gianluca Zambrotta.
The main reason is that the young De Sciglio's recent state has been a bit up and down, which may also be related to the emotional fluctuations caused by him playing as Milan's main force at such a young age.
In addition, Zambrotta has also played for Barcelona and participated in the Spanish El Clasico. He is not unfamiliar with the Real Madrid team and can get into the match state faster.
So in such an important game, I decided to let Gianluca Zambrotta play to avoid any surprises.
……
The live TV cut to a shot overlooking the entire field, where Benzema and Kaká could be seen standing in the center circle preparing for kick-off.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Di Maria stood on both sides of the court, ready to run into Milan's half at any time.
"The highlight of the Champions League quarter-finals is about to begin."
Zhan Jun's commentary also sounded:
"Judging from the value of the two teams, Real Madrid is definitely much higher than Milan."
"Just for Real Madrid's two top players, Cristiano Ronaldo cost Real Madrid 80 million pounds when he transferred from Manchester United. And Kaká's worth also reached 65 million euros."
"In Milan, even Ibrahimovic is worth only 24 million euros. The other main players like Salah, Mane, Kante, Van Dijk, including the Brazilian goalkeeper Ederson who just joined in the winter window, all seem to be from
The price is almost negligible if you buy it on Taobao."
"But this is such a low-priced team, but it has performed brilliantly this season. They top the Serie A with an unbeaten record of 24 wins and 4 draws, and have almost won the Serie A championship." "Of course, Real Madrid's performance in La Liga is not far behind. After 30 league rounds, they have also achieved an excellent record of 25 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses, beating their arch-rival Barcelona to occupy the top spot."
"Now, these two teams with the best performance in the two leagues meet in the knockout round."
"Before the game, the coaches of the two teams also had a verbal battle. Now I just don't know who is better on the court..."
On the field.
With a crisp whistle and the cheers and shouts of Milan fans in the audience, the game officially kicked off.
Benzema kicked the ball to Kaka, who immediately passed the ball back to his own midfielder.
Milan's trident crossed the center line immediately and rushed towards Real Madrid's half, putting pressure on their two defensive midfielders.
Alonso stopped the ball, turned sideways, and passed the ball to the right.
There is Arbeloa coming forward.
Mane immediately went up to press, and Arbeloa passed the ball along the sideline to right winger Ronaldo.
Unlike Milan, where both wingers play against their feet, both Real Madrid wingers play with their forward feet.
Ronaldo plays right winger with his right foot, and Di Maria plays left winger with his left foot.
This is because in Mourinho's 4231 tactical system, the distance between the midfield defense line and the back line will be wider, and he will also ask to limit the opponent's full-back's ability to move in to protect the center, so he will ask himself
The two wingers and the two fullbacks play wide.
In this case, both the winger and the full-back are comfortable and can better implement Mourinho's tactical intentions.
Moreover, when the winger gets the ball on the wing, Mourinho also gives the player more freedom, and will not restrict whether he should pass down the bottom, cut in and shoot, or exchange positions with another winger. p>
Doing this can make Real Madrid's frontcourt more flexible and not be restricted by opponents.
Moreover, Real Madrid's "forward-winger-midfielder" triangle positioning with outstanding anti-offside capabilities also makes it impossible for the opponent's defense to press forward, and it is difficult to maintain the relative positional distance from the midfielders.
In this way, a wide open area in the middle of Real Madrid's midfield is created, and the "center defender-forward midfielder" direct connection and quick pass through the midfield mode has appeared more and more in Real Madrid's games this season.
The advancement of the midfield and backfield in Mourinho's offense can maximize the potential of offensive players, and in a short period of time, a five-man offensive group in the frontcourt can be formed to suppress the opponent.
Now on the field, when Ronaldo takes the ball, Real Madrid's teammates Benzema and Kaka, who are closest to him, are also leaning towards him, preparing to cooperate with him.
Sure enough, when Kanter was about to grab the ball from Cristiano Ronaldo, Cristiano Ronaldo immediately handed the ball to Kaká and then moved forward without hesitation.
Kaká didn't stick to the ball, and gave it to Benzema with a slight flick.
Although Benzema picked up the ball with his back, he directly raised his leg and passed the ball to the right as if he had eyes on the back of his head.
The ball is back at Ronaldo's feet.
But the difference from just now is that with such a simple pass of two feet, Real Madrid's front line has advanced more than 20 meters.
Milan left back Gianluca Zambrotta did not dare to neglect, and before Ronaldo started to speed up, he directly tackled the ball to the ground and shoved the ball out of bounds. At the same time, he also tackled Ronaldo, which could be regarded as barely stopping the attack.<

Only ten seconds into the game, Real Madrid had already set out to devour Milan directly!
