Godfather Of Champions

Kaka opened her arms and ran towards the corner flag. This is his signature celebration, even in such a fierce final, he must first thank God for scoring a goal. He can thank God, but his teammates have to thank him, Milan players cheered and rushed towards him.

In the stands, AC Milan fans set off long-prepared fireworks, and the singing "Milan! Milan!" rang again.

Although it was just a goal, it made people see the hope of equalizing the score. A 50-meter-long single ride through the barrier really boosted morale too much!

"Is George Wood very powerful? But he can't stop our Kaka! In the fifty-meter dash, he can only follow, he can only follow! He is the foil of Kaka, dim under the superstar light Little star!"

Wood sat on the ground, resting his hands on the ground, still maintaining a tackle posture-with one leg stretched out and one under his hip.

Of course he could not hear the excitement of the Italian narrator's gibberish, but he knew that he lost to Kaka this time. Whether it is speed, technique, or experience awareness, he lost, and he lost thoroughly.

Defensive players are not like offensive players. They have no right to "lose" because their "lose" probably means that the whole team "lose".

The players of the Forest team looked a bit low morale. Kaka’s goal made them speechless. Even if they wanted to refuse to admit defeat, there was nothing to do. George Wood, the best defensive player on the team, followed Kaka. Ka ran for fifty meters without a chance to steal. Pepe, a central defender who can be ranked in the top ten in the Premier League, was thrown off by Kaka's acceleration, and there was no room to fight back.

What is there to say about such a goal?

It's too shocking...

※※※

The players felt they had nothing to say, but Dunn had a lot to say. He didn't admit how good Kaka scored this goal, because if he were Wood, this attack would have disappeared at the beginning.

He was furious off the court, waving his hands vigorously and roaring on the court: "George!! You bastard, you come down to me!!"

In the huge cheers of AC Milan fans, Wood still heard Dunn's roar.

He got up and ran over honestly.

Dunn pulled him to his side, gritted his teeth and whispered: "You need to take full responsibility for the loss, do you know?!"

Wood nodded, with a very good attitude.

"I know what you are thinking, but you have to pay attention to the occasion. This is the Champions League final, not a medieval knight's duel where the **** two sides throw white gloves at each other! In order to win, you have to do whatever you want, do whatever you want!" Dunn was in Wood's ears. While roaring, Wood buried his head in silence, taking away the head coach's anger.

"How do I usually teach you? Defense is not a glamorous job, it is the most tiring and dirtiest thing. Those fans..." He pointed to the AC Milan fans stand, "What they want to see, you have to destroy what . Whatever they like, you must oppose it. You must always fight against them and fight against them! Do you understand?"

"I understand, boss."

Albertini smelled a dangerous smell. He turned to look at the reveling AC Milan players and Milan fans in the stands.

The goal was so beautiful that it affected the mood of his teammates, and it was too dangerous to leave it alone. He is the captain. Wearing the captain's armband is not for good looks. At this time, he must do something.

He yelled loudly for his teammates to gather around him, he had something to say.

Everyone gathered together obediently, except that Wood was being called by the head coach to speak on the sidelines. Looking at the boss's facial expressions and gestures, what he spit out from his upside-down lips was definitely not nice.

Time is precious, and Albertini can't take care of his superiors and superiors. He ran directly to interrupt Dunn's training to Wood.

"I'm sorry, boss, don't you mind if I call everyone together and say something?" He pulled Wood away.

Dunn certainly didn't mind, and he was happy to see Albertini do it. What does the captain do? There is a saying that the captain is the team's head coach on the field. He can help the head coach accomplish many things that cannot be done on the sidelines of the coaching bench.

While the Milan players were still celebrating, Albertini, the former Milan player, is now wearing the Nottingham Forest jersey and the golden forest captain's armband to gather his teammates together.

"It's just a ball, guys. You don't have to be so downhearted. We are still one goal ahead of them." He glanced at the Milan players who were still celebrating. "This is the Champions League final. The opponent's obstruction is easy to get. And, you see..." He pointed to the Milan players.

"They just scored a goal and haven't evened the score. They are so excited. They are AC Milan. They are among the best in Italy. Now they are happy as if they have won the championship. What does this show? This shows that they are afraid of us, they only scored a goal to make them have such a performance, they have a sense of security, but in fact they are still behind us. I used to be an AC Milan player, I know this team. They are not as strong and invincible as you think. They also have many weaknesses. For example... They are actually not good at playing upwind. Think about the Istanbul night in 2005, when Liverpool scored three goals in a short time, they panicked. Lost..."

Some of this is not Albertini's true words, because honestly any team can't guarantee that it will be calm in the face of losing three goals in ten minutes. He said this only because he wanted to restore the confidence of the forest team players and calm their emotions.

"So, we still have a chance to continue to maintain our lead over them. I am not the boss, but I also play football manager games. I know some of the coach’s psychology. If I were the boss, I would change at this time. Go on offensive players, strengthen the offense, instead of sticking to it. Do you know why?" Before everyone answered, he went on to announce the answer. "Because if we can't open the score gap anymore, we will always give our opponents the hope of equalizing or even overtaking. This kind of hope is their crazy motivation. They will tirelessly launch waves of our goal. Offensive, our defensive pressure will only increase, and we will definitely not reduce it. There is only one solution to this situation-goals. If we can score another goal, they will be finished!"

Albertini clenched his fist and said, as if he had forgotten his identity as an AC Milan player.

He glanced at his opponent again and found that the AC Milan had finished celebrating. He clapped his hands: "Remember what the boss said before the game? No matter what the situation is, don't give up. It's not the worst. Get your energy up, and tell them how outrageous they are when they think they can beat us!" Vaguely, Albertini had the shadow of Stony Dunn on his body, and he worked with Dunn three times. In 2013, it was more or less affected.

Everyone clapped their hands together, and Albertini pulled Wood again. He had something to say to his midfield partner alone.

"George, are you still thinking about losing the ball just now?"

Wood shook his head first, then nodded again.

Albertini smiled: "Don't think about it, as a midfielder, there are too many moments like this. If you think about every ball, you don't play the game. Did you hear it just now? Although the boss hasn't done it yet. Make adjustments, but we need offense now, and defense alone cannot win this game."

Wood continued to nod in agreement.

"But I can't run anymore." Albertini spread out his hand and smiled helplessly. "Pirlo is always running and running. He is led by his nose, and his physical exertion is too great. If The offense requires me to rush up, and I can’t come back because I’m afraid of going up.”

Wood noticed that Albertini's gasps were louder than before the loss, and his shirt was almost saturated with sweat. He is already 36 years old in August, and the high-intensity competition of the Champions League final is really not easy for him.

"So, I need you to help me. Let's adjust the position. You are a little forward and I am behind you. When the team needs to attack, you will go up, and I will protect you from the back. You are young, strong and fast, go up. I can come back. I can’t think of a more suitable candidate than you.”

Wood did not nod or shook his head immediately.

Albertini saw the hesitation in his heart and smiled and said, "I know what you are thinking. There is nothing to hesitate. Are you still doubting your offensive ability? This final is my career. It’s the last match of the game, and then I retired and returned to my home in Italy. You can’t always hope that there is someone like me around you. Many times you need to solve the problem alone. When you need to move forward, just come forward Go, don't worry, there is me behind." He didn't say anything, pushed Wood away and ran away.

※※※

Albertini was completely right. After scoring a goal, AC Milan's morale and fighting spirit were high, and they launched a more fierce attack on the hinterland of the Forest team than before. The gap of only one ball is like the smell of blood in the sea, stimulating AC Milan, the huge shark, to chase Nottingham Forest.

Dunn made the first substitution adjustment of the game three minutes after losing the ball. He replaced Layton Barnes with Gareth Bale, a better offensive full-back.

This is an obvious signal that can no longer be obvious-Dunn wants the team to attack.

The Forest players couldn't help but glance at the captain Albertini. He was absolutely correct, and the boss was about to attack.

Five minutes later, Dunn made a second substitution. This time, he replaced Van der Vaart with forward Freddie Eastwood.

Everyone understands the first substitution, but the second substitution made some people unintelligible-they originally thought Eastwood would replace the exhausted Albertini, but they did not expect to be replaced but performance Van der Vaart is not bad.

This substitution made Ancelotti smile in secret. He felt that Dunn valued Albertini too much and chose to trust the experience of the veteran at this time. But Albertini obviously can't run. What's the use of experience? Pirlo has gotten rid of the opponent twice in a row and sent threatening passes. If it weren't for Wood desperately sticking to Kaka, the score is definitely not the current 1:2.

If Dunn believes in Albertini's experience so much, Ancelotti doesn't mind letting Dunn be planted on this kind of trust.

He walked to the sidelines and signaled to make Pirlo the core of the team's offensive organization again, and everyone else had the ball as far as possible to Pirlo, completely overwhelming Albertini.

When Van der Vaart came off the field, he thought he was not performing well and did not make any outstanding contribution to the team's offense, so the leader changed him. Unexpectedly, Dunn took the initiative to hug him, and smiled and asked him to wait on the court to celebrate the championship.

Eastwood took the sprint speed and ran into the field, leaving him running out of time, and every second must be cherished.

He does not blame the boss for making him a substitute in the Champions League final for two consecutive years. Because the boss must have the consideration of the boss, the player only needs to obey the command. If he was not allowed to play, he carefully observed the game below to find something useful to him. Once he is put on the court, it is the moment when these things come into play.

"Some people always say that Dunn is a conservative coach. But instead of changing defensive players to strengthen the defense when leading, but instead changing to attacking players to continue attacking, can this be considered conservative?" The England commentator watched After the two substitutions, they began to complain for Dun En.

Dunn doesn't care what others think of him.

He and Albertini have the same idea. At this time, strengthening defense may not be achieved by adding defensive players. From another perspective, strengthening offense can help reduce defensive pressure. He does not believe that AC Milan will not return to the defense against the offensive of the Forest. Of course, if Milan really wants to continue to attack, Dunn can't ask for it, that means there will be a lot of space behind them, as long as they are caught once, it will be enough to kill them!

※※※

Pirlo could see that Albertini was exhausted. In fact, he didn't need to look, just listening was enough-every time Albertini defended him, he felt that he had a large bellows beside him.

He restrained his opponent and passed the football to Kaka.

Kaka just managed to break through Wood's defense and score a goal. Now the morale is high and the state is just right. There is no reason not to pass the ball to him.

Just turned around to break through Wood's defense, this time Wood blocked Kaka outside the door. During the one-on-one breakthrough, the football Kaka kicked out was bumped by Wood's heel. Both of them jumped in the wrong direction, but the next second they both kicked the football at the same time.

Wood kicked the football out of Kaka first, and Kaka only hit Wood's calf.

Kaka was taken aback by this. He was afraid that Wood would fall, and the referee gave himself a yellow card. From the action point of view, it is really not light...

As a result, Wood got up from the ground, turned around and plunged into the forest team's defense again.

The football passed to Kaka's feet again. This time Kaka did not choose to directly break through, he passed the football back to Pirlo who plugged in.

Pirlo planned to play two-by-one with Kaka, but before he received the ball, Albertini suddenly circumvented the ball and cut the football off. The forest team launched a counterattack.

Pirlo had to turn around to defend.

It's just that Albertini's long pass lost a bit of permission this time, and the landing was grabbed by Gattuso, and the forest team's fast break did not start.

Gattuso handed the football to Pirlo. Albertini had just launched an attack and did not immediately enter the defensive position. Pirlo saw the timing and came with a sharp through.

Kaka suddenly started, intending to use speed to break through Wood's defense.

Wood had paid enough tuition on that ball. Defensive players have no right to make mistakes. One turnover is enough, and Wood doesn't want to make a second time. This time he waited for Kaka to speed up, and before he could control the football, he decisively tackled the football and shoveled the football before Kaka. Kaka couldn't stop the car and crashed into it and fell to the ground. The referee has stopped calling fouls.

AC Milan fans naturally booed, and Forest fans loudly applauded Wood's defense.

Milan's offense is not over yet, Kaka can't do it, so Pirlo will come.

They spotted Albertini's lack of energy and handed the football to Pirlo.

Pirlo again took the ball away from Albertini and looked up to observe the situation on the field. Now he is not as urgent as he was dozens of minutes ago, and the "big bellows" behind him is still a little far away from him.

Now he can calmly observe the situation on the field, and then decide how to pass and where to pass.

According to habit, he first glanced at Kaka.

No one around Kaka!

What about the No. 13 Forest team, who is always inseparable from the Brazilians?

Just when Pirlo was shocked, a wind quietly appeared beside him. When he sensed the danger and was about to pass the football under his feet to Kaka, he kicked it empty...

George Wood stabbed Pirlo's ball and handed it to Albertini, who was running back.

Wood doesn't know how much he can achieve on offense in the future, and he doesn't know whether he can really become a "metronome" with both offensive and defensive capabilities like Dmitrio Albertini. But there is one thing, whether he wants it or not, he must admit-after this game, Albertini will leave the team.

Demi said to him: I can't run anymore, I'm afraid I won't come back when I go up, so you go up, George.

Wood said to him: You don't need to come back, just wait ahead when you go up. I will steal the ball for you, I will pass the ball for you, and you are only responsible for organizing the offense. Van der Vaart has gone down, our offense can only be organized by you.

The Forest team’s offense was blocked again. Maldini drove to the front court with a big foot. Wood had the upper hand in the header battle with Kaka and Seedorf. He stood high, overwhelmed the two opponents and topped the football. To Albertini.

When Albertini came to the Forest for the first time, Dunn told Wood that this was his midfield partner and his teacher, and he wanted him to learn from Albertini and learn everything about him.

On the court, Wood's task is to serve as a bodyguard for Albertini, so that the metronome from Italy can organize attacks without any worries. Since when did you actually need Albertini to be Wood's bodyguard?
