Chapter 40 The unbeatable Xiaoqiang
Rui Costa was already having a hard time playing, and now he was being madly targeted by Lin Feng, and he was completely speechless.
Without Rui Costa's organization, AC Milan's offensive threat dropped sharply.
The situation on the field was at a stalemate, with neither side able to do anything to the other.
When AC Milan coach Ancelotti saw that the team's attack was blocked, he waved his hand and ordered the team to change tactics.
Pirlo quickly took over the command of the midfield and began to control the tempo of the game and organize the team's offense in a safer position in the backcourt.
His sleepy face always looks as if he just woke up, and his movements are neither fast nor slow, and his rhythm is neither fast nor slow.
But he was like an invisible metronome, firmly controlling the rhythm of the game under his feet.
Inter Milan's high-pressure tactics against AC Milan's front players failed. After Rui Costa no longer had the ball, it became meaningless to spend much effort to press him.
And another person stood up in the AC Milan attacking midfielder position - Kaka!
As the last piece of the puzzle for AC Milan's championship lineup, Kaka's joining brought speed and impact to AC Milan's offense.
Different from ordinary attacking midfielders, Kaka has excellent ball sense, fast advancing ability and good dribbling skills.
If we have to define Kaka, then Kaka should be considered an attacking midfielder.
As long as he is given enough space, he can use his speed to tear apart the opponent's defense!
With Kaka in the frontcourt, AC Milan does not need to organize the attack by the attacking midfielder in the frontcourt at great risks like other teams.
They can completely launch a counterattack directly from the backcourt with a long pass from the organizing midfielder!
Unfortunately, Pirlo is the most powerful organizing midfielder.
Soon, the connection between Pirlo and Kaka showed the world the terrifying power of their combination.
In the 18th minute, Inter Milan just pushed their formation out a little bit, and AC Milan immediately seized the opportunity. Pirlo sent a long pass to find Kaka who was waiting in the frontcourt.
The entire Inter Milan team retreated frantically, but their speed was no match for Kaka.
Milan's No. 22 ran with the ball all the way, and while running at high speed, he avoided interceptions from several Inter players including Zanetti, Materazzi and Samuel.
This scene stunned tens of thousands of Inter Milan fans present!
Whenever you see Kaka running with the ball on the field, the visual impact is unforgettable.
In the stands, Inter Milan fans had already surrendered, mentally accepting the result that their team would fall behind by one goal.
But at the critical moment, luck saved Inter Milan!
The physical confrontation before Samuel was dribbled past affected Kaka's dribbling rhythm, causing him to take time to adjust his rhythm after breaking into the penalty area, which gave Zanetti the opportunity to chase back and clear the ball out of the baseline.
After Zanetti cleared the ball, he looked at Kaka with some fear.
This guy is so fast!
Ever since Kaka joined Serie A, Zanetti felt that his opponent had become much stronger every time he met him on the field.
The scary thing is that he is only 23 years old this year and has not yet fully entered his peak period!
I really don’t know how his opponents will limit him when he reaches his peak!
Fortunately, we also have a player of this type in our team, and he is younger than Kaka.
If Lin Feng grows up, the headache he has when facing Kaka will probably become a problem for other Serie A teams!
Zanetti's mood suddenly improved a lot when he thought that the defenders of other teams would have to face the impact of Kaka and the destruction of Lin Feng.
……
Although Milan managed to escape the danger thanks to captain Zanetti's desperate pursuit, this attack sounded the alarm for Inter Milan.
If they cannot stop the opponent from passing the ball, their defense line will always be unsafe.
But Pirlo's position is too deep, and he is protected by Gattuso and Ambrosini. It is much more difficult to restrict him than to restrict Rui Costa.
Cambiasso has good defensive ability, but he is not in the same position as Pirlo and it is difficult for him to threaten the opponent.
If you want to threaten Pirlo, you must send Inter Milan's players in the frontcourt.
Lin Feng, who was in the attacking midfielder position, happened to be opposite Pirlo.
In addition, he had previously left a deep impression on Mancini when he defended Rui Costa.
So Mancini gave this glorious task to Lin Feng. Pirlo was full of disdain when he saw that the other party sent a young boy to deal with him.
Since Ancelotti changed his position on the field from attacking midfielder to defensive midfielder, his talent has gradually emerged.
In Ancelotti's tactical system of four number 4s, Pirlo is undoubtedly the absolute core.
The midfield combination of him and Gattuso, one focusing on attack and the other on defense, cooperated very well and gradually became recognized as the world's best midfield combination in football.
If the other party wants to restrict himself, it cannot be done by just one person!
Seeing Lin Feng rushing towards him impatiently, Pirlo protected the ball beautifully and turned around to get rid of the opponent.
But the other party was like a piece of taffy and soon caught up with him.
Pirlo was a little annoyed. When the opponent approached, he took advantage of the change in rhythm and passed the opponent again.
But after a few seconds, Lin Feng rushed over again.
Pirlo was a little speechless. Why was this guy so difficult to deal with, like an indestructible cockroach?
As a last resort, he could only pass the ball to Rui Costa who retreated to receive the ball.
As soon as Rui Costa received the ball, he was immediately surrounded and blocked by Inter Milan players.
If I can’t deal with Pirlo, can I deal with you?
Rui Costa was almost unable to hold the ball and could only pass it to Kaka.
But at this time, Kaka, who had no space to sprint, was like a cavalryman who dismounted and fought on foot. Although his personal strength was still very strong, he no longer had the advantage to crush his opponents.
Facing Inter Milan's chain-like steel defense, Kaka had no choice but to pull to the wing and barely send a cross to find Inzaghi in the penalty area.
Although Inzaghi is known for his ghostly movements, Inter Milan has three defenders watching him. No matter how good he is at running, he can't break out of the siege of three opponents.
Kaka's cross was intercepted by Materazzi and passed to Zanetti, who then launched a quick counterattack.
After two or three passes, the football quickly came to Mihajlovic's feet.
Mihajlovic looked up and saw where his teammates were.
Lin Feng had already started to accelerate when Zanetti passed the ball.
Adriano didn't know if it was because he had too much fun in the nightclub last night, but his reaction was a lot slower. As a forward, he was actually overtaken by Lin Feng who was behind him.
After taking a look at the positions of Lin Feng and Adriano, Mihajlovic could only choose to pass the ball to Lin Feng.
Lin Feng has proven his strength in previous counterattacks. In this kind of quick counterattack, his threat may be even greater than Adriano.
Moreover, because of Adriano's lack of self-discipline, his condition fluctuates greatly. When he is in good condition, he is like a god who can do everything.
When he is not in good shape, his legs are weak when he runs and he has no energy to sprint. You can hardly see him on the court.
Judging from his condition today, he must have wasted a lot of energy on the girls last night.
Lin Feng ran while paying attention to where the football would land.
Milan's two midfielders were rushing towards him at this time!
Lin Feng, who was paying attention to the opponent's movements, nodded the football with his head when it was about to land, avoiding Gattuso's interception.
Then, before Pirlo could destroy the ball, he picked up the ball and passed it over Pirlo's head.
Pirlo turned around in a hurry, and Stam on the side also rushed over to provide support.
But Lin Feng was faster. He kicked the ball away before Stam and then accelerated along the outside.
Although Stam was on the inside, his tall stature made his starting speed much slower than Lin Feng.
In addition, he had rushed too fast just now and had to overcome the huge inertia of his body. By the time he adjusted his center of gravity and tried to chase, it was too late.
Lin Feng has already dribbled the ball into the penalty area!
