Lippi turned around and said a few words to the assistant coach before sitting back on the coaching bench.

It has reached Juventus' period of dominance, but what's the use of being two goals behind?

Can you break through dense defenses with plenty of physical energy?

Pressing heavily is just waiting for them to be hit to counterattack, and AC Milan's counterattack efficiency will not give them any chance at all.

This game is basically over.

If it weren't for the sake of rigor, he would even be 100% sure that Juventus would have lost.

Letting the assistant coach be replaced can be regarded as a final effort.

Whether we win or not depends on God. If God comes to San Siro, then there should be no problem in winning.

San Siro Stadium cheered and the fans were shouting crazily.

But they still don't understand why the players are so excited.

Before the Internet era, conspiracy theories were not easy to ferment. Even though Juventus was accused of using drugs in 1990, multiple breaking news at the same time still affected the spread of the news.

The idea of throwing celebrities away when there is a scandal is not unique to Koreans.

"We are going to win, Dejan!!!"

Baggio hugged Dejan Lu's shoulders and shouted excitedly.

The Little Prince took a step slower, lost his usual position, and was staring at Baggio's back.

Baggio is excited because Milan proved that his original choice was correct.

Even if your opponent uses drugs, you can still win the game as long as you are strong enough.

Juventus made quick substitutions and directly used up two substitutions.

Amoruso replaced Boksic, Gianluca·Pessotto replaced Iuliano.

Obviously he wanted to use two fresh troops to rush forward.

Especially the right back, Dejan Lu spent a lot of money on this side today.

Tardelli walked to the sidelines and asked, "Aren't we going to make a substitution, Arrigo?"

"Wait, wait."

Sacchi pressed his palms and said, "Juventus' substitute players may not feel very hot when they come up. Maybe they can take advantage of this opportunity to score another goal."

The reason why he said this was because he found that Dejan Lu was particularly good at taking advantage of similar opportunities.

As long as the opponent has a substitution or an accident such as an injury that affects their concentration, Dejan Lu will immediately find an opportunity to score a goal.

In order to verify this, he also specifically watched Dejan Lu's games during the Samp period and found that it was a change that Dejan Lu only had in the later period of Manchester United.

Maybe the whole world doesn't realize it.

Europe's most fearsome player is still on the road to improvement.

Sacchi is ready to keep this kind of thing in his stomach, even Marco·Tardelli won't tell it.

And Sacchi has another conjecture recently.

Dejan Lu Maybe every game will be played in the same way as the opponent's famous player.

Mainly in today's game, Dejan Lu's style of play is too similar to Platini. Even a long pass master has different passing postures. Diego Maradona has a large range of body movement when passing long passes, and he also swings his arms to maintain balance.

Platini long pass usually looks very freehand, just so casual.

In addition, the previous free kick was very Platini's style, so Sacchi would have such speculation.

After all, Platini was at his peak when he was coaching in the early days. He did a lot of research on the French superstar, and he is still very impressed even today.

If it is as he guessed.

His Number Seven is terrible.

Paolo Maldini kicked off the ball in the backcourt. Redondo took the ball and immediately tried to find Totti with a long-distance ground ball, but was blocked by Delivio's foot.

Dejan Lu grabbed the ball very quickly. Before Delivio had time to stop the ball, he watched Dejan Lu stretch out his right foot and hook the ball away from him.

Deschamps quickly rushed to the side to defend, but Dejan Lu had no intention of waiting for him.

The French captain could only run back desperately and find a way to get close to Dejan Lu later.

There is an obvious height difference between the two people, as well as a difference in the length of their steps.

Fans in the nearby stands almost watched Dejan Lu trail Deschamps step by step.

The frequency of short legs is not fast enough, it would be strange not to be left behind.

Fortunately, Deschamps wasn't too worried. After all, it was just kickoff and all Juventus players were at half court.

Even if he can't catch up when he chases back, he can still create pressure on Dejan Lu.

The two people ran towards the penalty area one after the other.

There are quite a few defensive players standing in front of Juventus' penalty area.

Before Dejan Lu reached the penalty area, Pessotto, who had just come on the field, also came over.

Click——

Dejan Lu, who was well prepared, buckled his left foot and forced his way between Pessotto and Montero.

Montero quickly followed and ran back.

But he was still half a body behind and had no chance to steal.

Seeing this, Peruzzi abandoned the door and ran straight towards Dejan Lu with a shovel.

Snap,

Dejan Lu knocked the ball forward, but this time Peruzzi's legs were too close to him and he couldn't avoid it, so he was knocked down directly by the opponent.

San Siro fell into a brief silence, and immediately broke out into overwhelming yelling.

"Damn bastard, do you want to kill someone?"

"Don't even think about leaving San Siro alive today..."

"Foul, red card!"

"Shit Juventus!"

Players from both sides rushed to the location of the foul immediately.

"There is no suspense in this penalty kick. The referee also knew the impact of Dejan falling to the ground, so he decisively pointed to the twelve yards. Dejan got up and quickly stopped Totti, otherwise Totti would be red again today."

"Peruzzi was a little impulsive this time. Although Dejan had already brought the ball to the small penalty area, from a small angle on the far left, even Dejan could not score the ball 100%. But in the case of a penalty kick, Dejan would not waste the opportunity. There is something wrong with the mentality of the Juventus players."

"Reiziger is warming up on the sidelines. He should be preparing to replace Dejan. Then Milan will be 532 for the final period. Sacchi will have no problem in strengthening defense."

Dejan Lu pushed his teammates back.

The others had no intention of coming up to take the penalty, they were all waiting for Dejan Lu to take the penalty himself.

Dejan Lu took the ball and went to the penalty spot.

After rubbing it with his hands, Dejan Lu found no problem and put the ball down and turned it around to prevent it from rolling around.

Gudu——

Peruzzi, who had just received a yellow card, swallowed his saliva.

Damn, penalty kick!

He would rather Dejan Lu kick the little spoon than see Dejan Lu kick the ball in order to score a goal.

Dejan Lu's powerful shot can kill people.

At this time, he somewhat regretted being too impulsive. It would be better to let Dejan Lu hit the goal from a small angle.

The Juventus goalkeeper glanced at Montero.

This is also a waste.

Montero If he steals the ball early, he won't be forced to foul.

This feeling is so bad.

Dejan Lu has not had a single card in his career.

It is also very restrained, reducing the frequency of use of explosive shots.

But having this possibility makes Peruzzi feel like a stuck in his throat.

He was really afraid of dying from an inexplicable penalty kick.

The Juventus goalkeeper patted his legs to stop shaking as much as possible.

Unfortunately, it has no effect.

This is a fear that comes from the soul and is not so easy to overcome.

Books always say face your fears.

But when you stand in this position, you can realize how much pressure there is.

The goalkeeper had no intention of being in the limelight. He made up his mind and would pounce no matter what Dejan Lu chose.

Beep——

After the whistle sounded, Dejan Lu started to run.

Take a small step forward with your right foot, step on the left side of the ball with your left foot, and then pull up the inner instep of your right foot.

Bang——

Peruzzi used his right leg to fly out and the ball went straight to the middle of the goal. The next second it was already hanging on the net, as if Peruzzi had deliberately given up his position.

Boom——

"Dejan!"

"Dejan!"

"Dejan!"

San Siro shouted the name of Dejan Lu.

Dejan Lu raised his right fist and waved it, making Rossoneri even more excited.

"Dejan performed a hat trick!"

"A long shot, a free kick, a penalty kick, the hat trick in this game, three different ways of scoring goals, also represent the diversity of Dejan's offensive methods. No matter what kind of tactics, he can adapt perfectly."

"Sacchi is not a likable coach. There were many people who were not optimistic about the cooperation between Sacchi and Dejan. However, it is almost the end of the season and Sacchi has also proved that he can find ways to make Dejan realize his good potential in Dejan's team."

"Sacchi made a substitution. Reiziger replaced Dejan. After applauding in the stands, Dejan walked to the sidelines and high-fived his teammates to complete the substitution. Dejan did pay a lot in today's game. Next, AC Milan just needs to find a way to block Juventus' offensive."

Dejan Lu rinsed his mouth, stood for a few minutes and then returned to the bench.

Sacchi's tactics were really pragmatic, and he directly changed to Reiziger to continue to strengthen the defense, giving Juventus no hope at all.

In the end, neither side could change the score again in this game.

Milan, who set up a bus, held on to the score of 4:1.

As the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Dejan Lu rushed into the stadium with the substitutes.

Not just celebrating a win.

Juventus, who won the Super Saiyan state, received courtesy from their opponents before the game. It happened to be the first home game after winning the championship. They had basically determined their qualification for the Champions League final...

There was so much to celebrate in today's game.

The same is obviously true for the fans. Affected by the passion of the players, San Siro fans are also celebrating crazily.

Almost every player who jumped over the billboard and reached for the stands was instantly grabbed by a bunch of hands, as if it was a zombie siege.

Baresi looked at Dejan Lu who was waving to the stands and said, "Thank you."

"Thank you for everything. It's the result of everyone's hard work."

Dejan Lu waved his hand and said.

Baresi didn't defend himself, but he didn't think so.

If there was no Dejan Lu in today's game, I would definitely lose, but I would definitely not win.

A draw is the best result.

Dejan Lu not only attracted a lot of defensive attention, but also successfully suppressed Juventus with waves of attacks.

Zinedine Zidane was not very active in the second half today, mainly because Milan's offense was too strong.

"Dejan, urine test!"

Tardelli came over and reminded.

Dejan Lu pouted and walked towards the Italian Football Federation official.

After all, this is customary.

Several players in Milan needed to undergo urine tests, and Juventus did not escape the test, but everyone knew it was just a show.

Italian Football Federation If you want to punish Juventus for the truth, you should catch it every time during this period.

"We can celebrate tonight."

Totti said with some excitement.

It doesn't matter what you eat, but it is too difficult to win against such an opponent.

Killing cheats in FPS games is ridiculed as killing gods, just because it is difficult to do.

Today Milan can be regarded as the slayer of gods in a sense.

Even when carrying the container to the bathroom, Totti is singing sideways.

"Hey Judy"!

This guy is quite classy.

The two of them chatted and laughed, finished urinating, stuffed something into Italian Football Federation official, and separated.

Totti still wants to go back to celebrate, while Dejan Lu wants to go to the post-game press conference.

Mixed interview area.

Baresi had already taken off his coat and put it on his body, but was stopped by reporters.

"Franco, can you tell us about today's intensity?"

the reporter asked.

Baresi said seriously, "Today is the most difficult game I have played in my career."

"Is it because the opponent is very strong?"

the reporter asked.

Baresi rolled his eyes angrily and turned around to leave.

These reporters have no good intentions either.

She made it clear that she wanted to induce him to say something.

But whoever breaks the news about this will feel uncomfortable.

Baresi, who is already preparing to retire, does not want to get involved, otherwise people will often cause trouble in his retirement life.

Apennines The uncrowned king can inflict injuries on players just by spending some money.

If you're famous, I won't let you go. If you open a store, can I open it right next to you?

They sold a few cars at a loss and came back. After you retire, are there any opportunities to make a lot of money to make up for the losses?

As he reaches middle age, Baresi has become a lot smoother.

Everyone will learn to compromise with the world at some point.

Baggio was also caught by reporters.

They just like to bully honest people.

"Roberto, you seem to be very happy about the result of today's game. Is it because you have any unhappiness with your old club?"

the reporter asked with a smile.

As if his question was entirely well-intentioned.

Baggio shook his head and said, "I'm excited because I won, not because of who my opponent is."

"You mean you would be so excited even if you win Reggina?"

the reporter asked.

Baggio cursed in his heart.

Even if he has a good temper, he still can't help but want to beat this weird guy.

Baggio said, "Of course it's because the opponent's strength is exaggerated that I'm so excited. It's not because of a bad relationship with Juventus. I have many friends in Juventus, and it's not because of my position that I left Juventus, but other factors. Okay, that's all I'll answer."

He doesn't like interviews, but he doesn't mind saying something.

If you are looking for trouble, Baggio won't have that much patience.

Post-game press conference.

Sacchi has a smile on his face.

Lippi is like two sides of Sacchi, with a bad face. I don't know, but I thought he had lost his money.

Journalists can somewhat understand it, but that doesn't mean they can accept it.

Why don't you have a better attitude when you lose?

Then don't blame them for running against you.

"Mr. Lippi, the reason why you lost so badly today is because there was something wrong with your tactics?"

"Mr. Sacchi, winning against Juventus is crucial. Can AC Milan's winning streak be maintained until the end of the season?"

"Dejan, let's talk about the free kick today. You played so wonderfully."

"Dejan, what do you think of Juventus's strength?"

"Juventus committed a lot of fouls today and didn't receive a card. Do you think that's the case Mr. Lippi?"

"Arrigo, do you think the referee was fair and just?"

"..."

Compared to the game itself, reporters prefer to find other angles.

Fans don't just like to watch the analysis of the game.

Lippi pulled the microphone and said, "I don't think there is any problem with the penalties during the game. Today we were awarded a penalty kick and gave AC Milan several free kick opportunities. If this is a problem, then I don't know what is no problem."

Dejan Lu raised his eyebrows.

How shameless.

It sounds like he suffered a loss due to misjudgment.

The referee blew the away whistle today, which is not something ordinary people would dare to do.

Sacchi really couldn't hold back and said directly, "When you were awarded a penalty kick after multiple fouls in the penalty area, it was a benefit. Today the referee's control of the scale and the game itself was not satisfactory. I have always regretted using the main lineup, for fear that my players would die on the field."

"It's not our problem that the referees are lenient."

Lippi responded with a shrug.

"Damn it, aren't they treated differently?"

Sacchi slapped the table and said, "Your players have too much physical contact. No team hits the opponent first and then stretches their feet when defending, except you."

Totti received a lot of education today.

This is the first time Sacchi has seen this season.

Even if he met Juventus in the first half of the season, Totti was not so embarrassed.

Isn't it just a fucking dressing change?

Lippi said again, "I'm not satisfied with the result of the game, and I'm not satisfied with the referee's call. If he hadn't given AC Milan too many set kicks, we would never have lost so ugly."

After saying that Lippi stood up directly.

Dejan Lu curled his lips.

Fuck, the referee is probably going to take the blame today.

This is considered unlucky for him, and Lippi has no responsibility.

The whistle was already quite off, but it was still not satisfactory.

When the opponent left the press room, Sacchi snorted and said, "I have to say it again. There is a problem with the referee's standards today. He did not agree on the foul call scale for both sides. If possible, I hope this referee will never call our game."

Boom——

The reporters did not expect Sacchi to be so powerful.

Sacchi is not a coach who likes to discuss referees.

I must have been pissed off today.

But this is not something you can change just by saying something.

The Football Association and refereeing organizations usually choose to protect their own people.

"Mr. Sacchi, which referee from Italy do you think is better?"

the reporter asked.

"Collina."

Sacchi spit out a last name.

Baldhead usually does an excellent job when officiating important games.

Sacchi doesn't ask the referee to take care of Milan, as long as he doesn't blow the whistle.

"AC Milan still has a complete victory this season. This is really a great achievement. However, at the end of the season, several AC Milan players will retire. Have you considered signings in the summer?"

one reporter asked.

Sacchi nodded and said, "Actually, we have already considered this, as well as adjusting the team's foreign aid structure. These are the focus of my work in the summer."

He was in a good mood and didn't mind talking to reporters.

In the past, Van Basten needed a spot, but at the end of this season, Van Basten retired, leaving the main team with no foreign player left.

"So do you have any targets now? Are they South American players or European players?"

the reporter asked excitedly.

Sacchi said with a smile, "They are available in South America and Europe. We will evaluate the players in advance. Even excellent players may not be able to adapt to all tactics."

Many reporters nodded along.

This is true.

If you really want to strengthen, you should try your best to choose local players.

Otherwise, just like before, the foreign aid quota will be restricted.

"Can you tell me which opponent you want? The suspense of the match between Manchester United and Juventus is still there."

one reporter asked.

Sacchi said, "It doesn't matter who it is, but if I have a choice, I hope I can meet Manchester United in the final."

If he plays another fucking game with Juventus, Sacchi Game is worried that his heart won't be able to bear it.

Seeing Sacchi's cooperation, the reporters started asking frantically again.

Almost ten minutes passed before the reporters looked at Dejan Lu.

"Dejan, what do you think of today's game?"

one reporter asked.

Dejan Lu took the microphone and said, "The process of the game was a bit surprising, but the result was still pretty good. It was not easy to win against Juventus. The main reason was that the coach's tactical arrangements were reasonable. The whole team also put in a huge effort. This is the credit of someone."

"Who do you want to face in the Champions League final?"

one reporter asked.

"Manchester United, because I know the situation of Manchester United better." Dejan Lu stood up and said, "That's it for today's press conference. We have other things to do later."

Sacchi saw this and stood up together.

He's not that keen on giving conferences.

The two of them returned to the locker room. The other players had already changed their clothes and were waiting for Dejan Lu.

Dejan Lu also quickly changed equipment.

The entire Milan team set off in a mighty manner.

The bar owned by the fans was not far from San Siro, so no one drove.

When the group arrived nearby, they quickly entered the bar.

The bar owner obviously paid attention.

A lot of things were prepared, in the style of a buffet, but the meat and seafood were obviously freshly grilled. Based on their approximate arrival time, everything was still hot.

Only the bombs exploded in advance.

Although they will also charge money, obviously the fans will be more attentive.

The players brought the tables together and it was mainly about the atmosphere.

Baresi took the initiative to get beers for the whole team. The schedule was not very tight, so drinking one or two bottles per person was not a big deal.

"To victory!"

"Honor us!"

the whole team shouted together.

Paolo Maldini joked in a low voice, "The old guy is becoming more and more active. If he retires two seasons later, I can't even imagine what will happen."

"I guess I can't bear to leave the green field."

Dejan Lu said.

"It's possible, he must have drunk too much today." Paolo Maldini said firmly.

He really wasn't wrong.

Only Baresi in the team was drunk.

When he left, two young men, Buffon and Totti, sent him home together.

Dejan Lu hailed a taxi and went home.

But the next day he discovered that his wallet was missing.

He called the taxi company to inquire, but the other party didn't see it either.

I simply told the police I knew about it, but I didn't hold out much hope.

What Dejan Lu didn't expect was that on the morning of his return to team training, the Milan police sent his wallet to Milanello.

With this efficiency for foreigners, Dejan Lu thought it was back to Asia...
