Chapter 118 Is there an offside?
When the ball rolled towards the goal, Mourinho was also praying in his heart. He knew very well that as long as the goal was scored, both rounds of the game would be over.
Shevchenko was ready to celebrate, but at this moment, a blue figure slid over like a whirlwind, perhaps due to the effect of rain, the distance of the shovel on the lawn was greatly extended, and Carvalho hooked the ball on the goal line.
Boom.
There was an exclamation from the dragon stadium. It was really too dangerous, and the game was almost over.
Baia patted Carvalho, "Dude, you did a great job."
Ancelotti laughed bitterly. He could have killed the game, but he still believed that victory could not escape his grasp.
Porto is very fierce in the frontcourt, which is actually very dangerous. After all, there is still the second half. The consequences of physical overdraft do not need to be thought about by professional coaches, they can understand, but...
Porto has no choice.
There are many situations where Milan encounters pressing, and they can already deal with it calmly.
Maldini lightly passes the ball to Gattuso, who passes it back, then Rui Costa, Pirlo, Seedorf.
It is not a good sign that AC Milan players can use the ball to defuse Porto's crazy pressing.
Porto's commentator Lopez said worriedly: "Loop grabbing is the most energy-intensive, and Porto's energy consumption is far greater than that of the opponent. This is not a wonderful signal."
However, Porto is also experienced in many battles. After they grabbed a bit, the formation retreated, and then went back and forth again.
In terms of possession rate, Porto has an absolute advantage, but it is difficult to hit Milan's core defense area, which is a problem.
"The ball is lost, hurry up and return to defense." Maniche roared.
Porto ran back in three lines, but the opponent's offense was faster, and a kick was sent directly to the side to Shevchenko.
The Ukrainians didn't look at the situation in the penalty area at all, but sent it in directly because of trust.
Yes, it is because of trust!
He knew that Inzaghi would grab the ball, so football is difficult, the field is too big, and many times the passing of the ball relies on the usual trust formed by hard work, not other things.
Inzaghi's running position is like a civet cat. He started by pressing the back line, so when Ruoge turned around, Inzaghi was already half a body away.
The ball arrives.
People arrive.
Even if Baia threw it out, Inzaghi still cleverly sent the ball into the goal.
Goooooooooal.
The Italian commentator was about to shout shortness of breath, and Mourinho was so uncomfortable that he was dying. At this moment, Morais patted him.Pointing to the distance.
"Look at the linesman's semaphore."
"what?"
Seeing the flag raised high by the linesman, Mourinho understood that the ball was offside, but Ancelotti was furious.
"The ball is 100% onside."
At this time, there was no video assistant referee, so the referee's decision was the final result. Ancelotti was furious, "Could it be that this is Porto's home game..."
At the critical moment, Ancelotti controlled his mouth, and he couldn't speak nonsense, otherwise...
Ancelotti smiled and pointed to his eyes, meaning that I can see clearly, yes, I can see clearly.
He escaped a catastrophe, but Mourinho knows that the team can't do this anymore, the midfielder can't press so high, and he can use long-distance long passes, anyway, it's the same.
But this means that it completely bid farewell to the technical flow of Portuguese football, and it became a football like Iceland later.
*****
Seeing high balls passed into the penalty area again and again, Lopez felt that this Porto team was very strange, like a third-level team, or the way he played in high school, with no skills at all.
Ancelotti doesn't think so. It's also different with long passes. It's impossible to score goals without footwork and football awareness.
Maldini has dropped into the middle to help the team defend. He is also tall and can handle some high-altitude balls.
In this way, Porto's crosses were solved time and time again by Milan's defenders. It was like a half-court pass training.
If it was the last game, then this situation would not have happened, because Milan's midfielder would control the ball, but now it is different, Milan just needs to let the time pass, and at the end of 90 minutes, then they are the final winners.
Mourinho is gesturing and crossing two fingers, which means that the striker's fight for the top should be more layered.
For example, Almeida grabs the front point, then McCarthy goes to the back point, so there will be more opportunities and it is more likely to tear through Milan's defense.
And during normal training, Porto will be as close to the goalkeeper as possible. This is arranged by Mourinho, and the players don't know why. It stands to reason that it is within the control of the goalkeeper.
Nesta yelled at Dida: "Do you want me to solve the things in the penalty area?"
The goalkeeper is protected in the small penalty area, just jump up and take the ball off, but Dida's reaction today was very clumsy.
The Porto players also noticed that the opponent's goalkeeper didn't know why he didn't dare to attack, so that's all right, and he passed into the small penalty area.
Losing the air supremacy in the small penalty area is too great a threat, and Ancelotti feels that something is wrong the more he looks at it.
At this moment, a high ball came over, almost on the small penalty area line. If Dida didn't hit, then the ball was 100% for the opponent.
So Dida could only bite the bullet and attack, raising both hands high to pick the ball, but the glove felt wrong as soon as it touched the ball, as if the ball was slippery with butter, Dida didn't hug it, and McCarthy made a follow-up shot.
Ancelotti's face was ashen.
Watching Porto celebrating in a daze, what's going on?Dida made two mistakes in a row?
Before the end of the first half, the big score became 2 to 3. If someone told Ancelotti the result before the game, he would have laughed, but now he can't laugh.
He immediately called the substitute goalkeeper Abiadi. When Dida saw Abiadi, not only did he not blame him, but he was relieved a little. His condition today is really not good.
Ancelotti originally wanted to ask Dida's opinion, but now there is no need, because Dida has already compared Thumbs to him.
"It seems that the Brazilian is really injured. Damn it, if I knew this, I would have changed it earlier, and I wouldn't have lost the second one."
Milan made substitutions, and Mourinho was most disappointed. How much he wished Dida could play for a while, but unfortunately Ancelotti is also a vigorous and resolute person.
