Milan Circle
Serie A 30 AC Milan expedition to Sardinia, the opponent is in the 17th table, only 3 points more than the relegation zone, the first half of the clash Milan won 4:1, but considering that the recent Rossoneri has always faced many hardships against weak brigades, hidden dangers still exist. Points conceded by rivals in the same city before the game allowed the team to throw themselves into Pioli's whole life plan with a relatively relaxed mentality. There's nothing wrong with that, it's the whole thing. Weak opponents, standings advantage, Pioli chose to make a new meaning in this game, hoping to find a tactical direction to reverse the recent downturn.
There is nothing special about the starting choice, basically the most full-fledged player at present. The opening was still a familiar routine: 6:20, the back fell between the center-backs to take the ball to the side, the wing directly sent a long pass, the forward Special Olympics bottom line took the ball and crossed, and Olivier Giroud faced most of the empty goal after the high-pitched kick. Cagliari's 532 formation lacks enough offensive capabilities, and all the attacks basically come from the breakthrough of former Milan youth coach Bellanova on the right side, basically completely contained by the more powerful Special Olympics. After Giroud missed the golden opportunity, Pioli's whole plan also officially pressed the start button.
Milan's golden left side is known to be the source of the team's attack, but the coach's setting in this game almost completely sets aside the advantages of Te Andeo and Leo. Leo basically stayed in the middle of the road to form a double forward with Olivier Giroud, and the usual side break through nothing, but this was not to open up the passage for Special Olympics. The French full-back, who is accustomed to rushing into the middle, is completely in the actual back position, although the full-back inside the ball is part of Milan's tactics, but it is not as direct as this game, it is not difficult to see that Pioli wants a new waist point to stimulate the attack.
According to past experience, forcing the ball to hold the back is a conventional means for every opponent to crack Milan's playing style. After letting Teeo hold the ball, releasing one more player to participate in the run, coupled with Cagliari's low investment in pressing in this game, Teeo has a lot of room to play, but most of them are limited to horizontal passes. Once the choice to speed up the breakthrough, the shorter sprint distance than ever before is also targeted by the opponent, except for the 13-minute wrong entry and exit that allows Díaz to unexpectedly get a golden opportunity, most of them are destroyed by the confrontation, or end with a barely threatening shot. The dividend of the breakthrough was yellow, coupled with the landing of the opposing 5 defenders, Milan chose to use long-range shots as a tactical finishing technique, almost every 5 minutes to try a long-range shot, but except for the 12th minute Kathy hit the goalpost, the rest were inserted wings or lost in the thigh forest.
Special Olympics is also a master of creating opportunities by breaking through, pressing the pause button and expecting his ball to change the situation is not a clever trick. Need to clarify the difference between the back of the ball and the receiving back, 49 minutes, the Special Olympics back position received the left side of the cross to turn around to form a breakthrough, but Leo did not hit the wall after receiving the ball to give Te'o to choose his own shot, the opportunity was missed; 50 minutes, Theo received a cross in the other direction in almost the same position, slightly adjusted to play a high-quality long-range shot; 58 minutes Teeo also received the pass at the same back position and directly knocked on the right rib Dias to have the goal behind... Asking Theo to stand at the back to pick up the ball is at least a stinky move from the point of view of this game, but as a receiving point, it can play a flower job. The biggest advantage of Theo as an invisible back is to release Benasser, algeria MVP almost single-handedly stirred up the storm, goals are just the most intuitive data, in both ends of the attack and defense to interpret the real role of B2B midfielders.
After the goal, Milan seemed to open the shackles, and the long-lost smooth group coordination and one-foot pass began to reappear, if it were not for the collective loss of the shooting boots, the game should have been settled early. Not to expose the shortcomings of the defensive line in the stoppage time stage, and experience a beam horror. 3 points to hand, the most direct result was obtained, and Pioli's whole plan was still rewarded. Hopefully, the Milan players will be able to chew on the feeling of the last 30 minutes of the game, and the coaching staff will carefully consider the use of "extra back" and "Rai center". There is still plenty of time to work on the hour before the two uphill battles at the end of April.
