The game was on the evening of April 7th, and AC Milan arrived in Valencia on the afternoon of April 6th. Then they went directly to the Mestalla Stadium for an hour to get used to the venue training, and then returned to the couch hotel.
This is AC Milan preparing for war.
In fact, it doesn’t matter if they stay in Milan. After 20 rounds of the league, they scored 69 points, ranking first in the league, second in Rome, and sixtyone points. It is difficult for Rome to threaten AC Milan.
Of course they didn’t stay to prepare for the weekend game against Empoli.
Yes, it seems that they don’t think it’s important to play Valencia.
Can you lose 4 away from home after winning three goals in the first round? Even if we let the other team score four goals, it is said that we need to score one goal to eliminate the opponent.
The situation is onesided. Valencia has a dead end.
Why don’t you go over there so early and have a good training and rest?
Carlo Ancelotti is still cautious in front of the media.
When he arrived in Valencia, he attended the prematch press conference and said, Valencia is a strong team. We must take the football field seriously. Anything is possible. We can’t be proud and underestimate our enemies.
But that’s true, but the actual team mentality is beyond his control
The Italian media are optimistic.
We were three goals ahead in the first leg, and now AC Milan can defend and counter Valencia from the ground … I have great confidence in AC Milan’s defensive counterattack. Honestly, I don’t despise Valencia, but football is a very realistic sport. I can’t think of any possible reversal in Valencia …
Gazzetta dello Sport said this when analyzing this game.
… Valencia Mestalla will face the most powerful Milan in the 21st century! This team’s league and Champions League doubletrack triumph will stop them from being crushed by love! Both Rome and Juventus have tasted this, and now it’s Europe’s turn!
… I don’t think Valencia strikers have the ability to break through Milan, the world’s best defense line. The experienced and superb defenders such as Paolo Maldini, Alessandro Starr and Cafu will seal Valencia’s shot! Kaka and Sepcenko’s counterattack will bring great threat to Valencia’s goal!
The whole Italian media seemed relaxed.
No one believes Valencia can complete the turnaround at home.
……
What about the press conference before winning the game?
We can do things you can’t imagine!
It’s that simple. How can you do it without any dry goods? Don’t say
Makes people want to boo him.
Chang Sheng thinks it’s better to say all the words and talk more with the media. At this time, he might as well give the players more analysis on the weaknesses of AC Milan in the tactical class.
The night before the game, the two teams had two completely different preparation situations.
The tactical meeting in AC Milan Hotel ended early. Ancelotti just announced the starting list of the day’s game and told everyone what was known.
Then he announced the dissolution.
The huge lead makes him feel that there is no need to push his players too hard. Although he says he is cautious, he is too nervous, and there is no need. These players are experienced and know how to adjust their state and mentality.
Or let them relaxit helps the day to play.
While that light in the conference room in Valencia Hotel is on all the time.
After having dinner in the hotel, the players went straight into the conference room. The light was on from 9: 30 to 11: 30 for two hours!
This is the four longest tactical meetings that Valencia players have held.
Is in case of loss.
God, the game is too important. The winning team and the players dare not elaborate.
Chang Sheng didn’t say anything impassioned to make the players feel excited.
Now he says tactics and advantages and disadvantages of both sides.
AC Milan’s defence, like Rome’s defence, has conceded the least goals in Serie A this season. Their defence is very strong, and they are all experienced and excellent, but that doesn’t mean that they have no weaknesses. On the contrary, they are very weak and deadly. If we want to seize their weaknesses, we will probably make a comeback at home. Remember, guys, when I say we are reversible, it’s not a bluff. I am sure!
From the reopening of the Champions League in the Milan derby week to the latest league match, AC Milan lost nine goals. As the number of matches became closer and closer, this solid defense line has declined greatly at the beginning of the season. Their biggest problem is that the defense line is too old. pancaro is 32 years old, Cafu is 33 years old, Martini is 35 years old, costacurta is 35 years old and Starr is 27 years old. However, he often gets injured in the league match and comes back from injury. At the beginning of the season, these people are in good health. The blue defense line has experience and strength advantages, but as the league and the Champions League gradually increase compared with the old cadres, the aging disadvantage of this defense line appears. Recently, AC Milan has been almost a week, and pancaro has come in tired. No one can imagine starting the pancaro League from the 24 th round against Sampdoria. The Champions League national team played nine games in a month. On the other side, Cafu has been the main force from the first half of the league until now. Sometimes it is the Italian Cup in the middle of the week. Only Brazilian people can get some respite. Although Paolo Maldini got a full week’s rest on the national team’s match day, for he is thirtyfive years old, his main force has not been rotated and his physical fitness has reached a limit. Another central defender position is that costacurta and Starr take turns to play costacurta. Once they catch up for a week, they will definitely have problems …
Changsheng began to analyze the defensive line of AC Milan in great detail.
In addition, there are also problems with Ancelotti’s tactics. Although the media say that AC Milan will definitely advance in this game if it wants to defend and counterattack, I don’t think Ancelotti will choose to defend and counterattack because he advocates oppressive play and seeks the best opportunity through the frontcourt. However, once the ball is lost and turned into defense, it often gives the opponent a lot. I remember pancaro once revealed that AC Milan’s tactics are that two fullbacks are involved in the attack and form a multipoint response in the frontcourt. This is the core of Ancelotti’s attack and the defense relies on two highly capable central defenders, but often they will score before their opponents.
Ancelotti will definitely do this again. The away attack will completely destroy us. I think even if Ancelotti wants to fight back defensively, he will have to advance a goal in the game to do this, which is safer. After all, a game lasts for 90 minutes. It is not Ancelotti’s style to give the initiative to the opponent as soon as it comes.
Don’t ask why the winner is so sure that Carlo Ancelotti will choose to attack rather than defend against the attack when he leads by three goals in the first leg because he just knows.
He has a deep memory of many things that happened in the world football in the past, especially this kind of thing that shocked the whole European football.
In the same season, the same quarterfinals were different opponents. At that time, AC Milan played La Coruna. They scored 41 in the first leg. La Coruna scored an away goal, but it was meaningless. AC Milan won three goals.
Similar to your current situation?
Unexpectedly, in the second round, Carlo Ancelotti didn’t choose defensive counterattack but continued to attack … As a result, what happened next, everyone knew that AC Milan was defeated by La Coruna 4, with a total score of 45, and they were eliminated!
No one knows why Carlo Ancelotti will continue to attack instead of defending and fighting back safely.
Changsheng doesn’t know, but he needs to know that it is enough for Ancelotti to do this, and he doesn’t need to know why he did it.
In Ancelotti’s formation, Seedorf’s leftback is actually a free man. The whole attack and defense on the left depends on pancaro alone … Look at this ball. The video of AC Milan’s game, which was carefully edited by Rudy Gonzá lez, is playing in the conference room. This is the game between AC Milan and Mona. It was after pancaro’s attack that Starr made up the left side, simic made up the middle, revealing the right side … Look at this game again … The evervictorious remote controller fastforwards Facing Sampdoria, The same is true of Asia’s goal. Seedorf can really revitalize the attack but weaken the left defense … So AC Milan’s left is their weakness. We should focus on our offensive focus in our day’s game!
Chapter two hundred and seventy Let’s show his mother a miracle!
The winning analysis is very detailed, interspersed with various war cases, video supplements and evidence, which makes Valencia players feel very at ease without fear and anxiety after listening to it.
They don’t know how a Spanish league coach who always wins is so familiar with the Italian league.
But every game is like this. Chang Sheng and his coaching team can always support his tactical views with detailed data.
Listen to his tactics, you won’t be confused, but you will feel very clear. Everyone knows what he should do in the game.
It’s completely different from the coach who will shout You have to believe in yourself, we will win, we will win, we will definitely win whenever possible.
