Fans who didn't notice Dejan Lu at first thought it was just an ordinary counterattack to grab a shot.

But paying attention from the beginning, especially the fans in front of the TV, clearly saw how terrifying the sprint speed of Dejan Lu was.

Except for him, other Milan players ran for less than half of the game. Dejan Lu ran for almost the entire game and participated in the counterattack.

As far as the 22 players starting today, Manchester United's fastest Ronaldo is slightly slower.

Little Ronaldinho and Ronaldo should have about the same speed, but Dejan the Football King has a talent bonus.

Giggs is also very fast. I don't know who is faster, him or Ronaldo.

As for Beckham, he is not very fast.

Manchester United's two wings are flying together, completely running from the left to the right to let the ball run. If the ball cannot be passed, Neville will run forward.

After Dejan Lu scored, he was immediately hugged by Van Basten.

Totti is even a step slower.

The Dutch forward was a little excited. He put his arms around Dejan Lu's neck and raised his arms to the stands.

This behavior is like Totti II.

In the last league game of his career, the old guy also became passionate.

Not at all like the half-dead people he usually is this season.

The Little Prince ran to the other side of Dejan Lu to raise his arms. The trident composed of three generations of old, middle and young people was full of technical content.

Not to mention the strength, the amount of hair alone far exceeds the Manchester United Trident.

Cantona, Cole, and Ronaldo are each less hairy than the last, and only Solskjaer on the bench can compare with Milan's Trident in this regard. Even after playing for Manchester United for many years, that guy has not been affected by the quality of British water.

In terms of hair growth, heredity is greater than external factors, as long as you don't work in a highly toxic environment such as a chemical factory for a long time.

Ronaldo touched his head, which had only stubble on his hair, and looked at Dejan Lu and the others with a little envy.

It's not like he never grew his hair.

But it's not very pretty.

During Ajax period, he had naturally curly hair.

If he could be as elegant and chic as the Milan players, he would even want to try long hair.

Losing the ball is no big deal compared to the haircut.

As a forward who averages one goal per game, Ronaldo has never worried about conceding the ball first. He has confidence in himself in this regard. After receiving the pass from his teammates and passing a few people, he can equalize.

Rossoneris are waving everything in their hands wildly.

If we win this game, we will end the season with a complete victory.

Such a miracle is almost impossible to replicate.

In comparison, a Champions League title is not a big deal, since Milan has had several before.

Rich families are so arrogant.

Beckham has his hands on his hips. Last year he and Dejan Lu were flying together.

"Be careful with that little yellow guy. He is the best at looking for opportunities to pass the ball and sneak attacks. He is very accurate in long passes. Don't give him time to kick off. Moreover, he likes to swing his arms when passing long passes. If it doesn't work, raise your hands to affect his swing and make him unable to maintain balance..."

Listening to Dejan Lu explain to Davis in English, Beckham looked constipated.

Still not good brothers anymore?

You called me David when you were at Manchester United, but now you call me the little yellow guy who loves sneak attacks?

But that Dutchman is really disgusting, he likes to defend himself too much.

As a result, he was unable to adjust when passing the ball.

On the contrary, Redondo's wide-open defense did not have much impact on him.

After being targeted in this way, Dejan Lu also emphasized it repeatedly with his teammates.

Beckham thinks he should feel honored, at least he takes the threat he brings seriously.

"Be careful."

Cantona said sideways.

Desailly is a little speechless.

I don't know what it's like to play football with Deschamps and Zinedine Zidane.

But playing with Cantona doesn't feel very wonderful. This guy's defensive ability is far from worthy of his fierce face.

As a single midfielder, there is still a lot of pressure.

"Don't give Dejan too many chances."

Cantona looked at Butt and said.

Butt:...

Is it possible for him not to give the opportunity if he doesn't want to?

Do you really think he is some kind of left gate?

But Butt nodded.

The main reason is that the explosive power of Dejan Lu is too strong.

If Dejan Lu keeps cycling and gives him a chance to wait for his teammates, Butt will still have some confidence.

But Dejan Lu really eats it raw with speed. No matter how careful he is, he can't keep up.

"Come on you reds Manchester United, Busby Babes they always made me cry, Thinkin'bout the teams of years gone by..."

With the song "Come on you reds", Manchester United kicked off again.

This song sung by the players also contains the part Dejan Lu, but their No. 7 has become their opponent.

Cantona Go directly back.

Ronaldo turned around and kicked the instep, Cantona took the ball and controlled the rhythm a little.

Totti went up and pressed quickly.

However, looking at his still somewhat green face, Cantona was ready to teach Totti a lesson.

He clicked his right foot and immediately pulled it back, then struck sideways.

"Shit..."

Totti cursed and rushed towards Beckham.

Facing Davis and Totti, Beckham did not dare to make a big move and immediately turned around and passed back.

After Desailly got the ball, he tried to pass to the right, but was pushed out by Totti.

The ball was obviously intended for Van Basten, but David·Mei grabbed the ball in time, got the ball and passed it to the left.

Phillip·Neville stretched out his foot to stop the ball, and Dejan Lu had already rushed forward.

Little Neville wanted to strike horizontally for the first time, but when he saw that Totti had already arrived at David Mei's side, he gave up this option.

Little Neville moved his right foot to bring the ball closer to the wing, and then suddenly moved his outer instep in the opposite direction, which drove Dejan Lu.

What people didn't expect was that at this time, little Neville pulled back and immediately passed forward.

Got cheated.

Ferguson has always said that little Nei is better at using his brain than his brother.

This is really the case.

Beckham was targeted today, and he should really do more on his side.

After the pass was sent out, Phil·Neville was forward. Unfortunately, Dejan Lu blocked him first, leaving Butt unable to pass back.

Albertini is already in front of Butt, and Butt can only choose to pass the ball.

Cantona and Redondo are entangled together.

Although Cantona successfully got the ball, he had no chance to turn around.

The Frenchman pretended to pull the ball, but Genoa Spin spiked the ball and turned around. Redondo chose to step back and was not fooled.

Some anxious Cantona simply passed the ball to Andy Cole, who was in a better position. Cole kept hitting the ball without stopping, but Baresi turned sideways and blocked the ball.

Side kick!

Ferguson chewed the gum hard.

Today AC Milan's defense was too targeted.

First, guard against Beckham's long pass after getting the ball. Even if you can't steal it, you still have to delay his time to play the ball.

The second defense is Cantona's quick through ball, and this defensive strategy of staying close without taking any kicks means that Cantona must pass by, and if it cannot pass, it needs to get out of the angle.

The third point is also the most important. Let Andy Cole not let Ronaldo catch the ball.

Reiziger and Paolo Maldini were all next to Ronaldo just now, and Coco was still running over there, which is fucking outrageous.

This kind of defense that only targets key players still caused a lot of trouble for Manchester United.

At least Ronaldo didn't catch the ball too many times today. Instead, he was responsible for covering Andy Cole.

After thinking for a moment, Ferguson waved to the field and shouted, "Nicky, Nicky..."

"Boss, you called me?"

Butt leaned over and asked.

"Push forward more. You and Phil take turns to push forward. Even if you don't get the ball, you can help Ronaldo create opportunities." Ferguson said.

"Then Dejan..."

Butt said with some uncertainty.

This side is opposite Dejan Lu.

Ferguson really thinks highly of him.

"It can't be solved even if you two are in the backcourt." Ferguson complained.

Butt:...

Although this is true, it is too direct.

Butt nodded and returned to the court, waiting for his teammates to throw the foul ball.

Milan players' defense is very targeted.

On the contrary, it is weaker in the penalty area.

Phillip·Neville had the intention to hit directly into the penalty area, but the combination of Ronaldo and Andy·Cole is not very strong in heading the ball, so they may not be able to gain any advantage.

Cantona came to respond, and little Neville threw it directly to the French.

There was no one to defend Cantona. He turned around easily after taking the ball and chose to cross the ball. Before the ball reached the goal, Buffon reached out and blocked it from the bottom line. Manchester United won a free kick.

Dejan Lu hurry back to the restricted area.

Given this set piece, Beckham is going to steal the show.

Milan's penalty area was packed.

Ronaldo stood at the top corner of the penalty area a little to the right. From this position, he was obviously preparing to rush forward to create chaos and grab two points.

Cantona and Andy Cole are responsible for the middle lane, which is the middle lane.

Dejan Lu simply stood in front of Cantona.

Cantona pushed Dejan Lu gently from behind, and said with a smile, "Get out of the way."

"Do you believe I'm lying down?"

Dejan Lu turned around and asked.

Still dare to take action?

If you really encounter a ruthless person if you have any moves, just lie down. If you don't say anything, it will be a yellow card.

The referee doesn't care whether your movements are big or powerful.

Cantona rolled his eyes angrily and muttered in French.

Beep——

Beckham's iconic positioning kicking method, swinging arms and kicking in an arc.

The ball seemed to be flying forward, but when it entered the penalty area, it started to spin towards the goal.

This caused some difficulties for the defensive players at the front point to make judgments. Coco took off one step early and jumped directly over the head, allowing the ball to fly to the center.

Dejan Lu, who was standing between Cantona and Andy Cole, took off first, followed by Cantona.

The Frenchman was a little excited because he thought Dejan Lu took off early.

But at this moment, he discovered that Dejan Lu was clearly exerting force in the air. He exerted force on his waist and forced his body to stay in the air, thus blocking the incoming ball in front of him.

The ball hit Dejan Lu's head and immediately hit the back of Cole's head and bounced towards the goal. The speed was not fast and the angle was not very good. Buffon raised his hands on the spot and pinched the ball in front of his chest.

Buffon, who successfully resolved this crisis, raised his eyebrows at Dejan Lu.

This guy really doesn't like to show off.

Did you start to become calm as you got older?

Dejan Lu trotted forward slowly.

Being continuously besieged, you also need to give your teammates a chance to breathe.

Buffon threw the ball to Reiziger, and the Dutch full-back who finally started the game passed the ball directly without any intention of dribbling.

Dejan Lu moved his right foot and got the ball on the right sideline.

It won't start unless there is no one to press it.

Butt glanced at Dejan Lu with resentment, and went to grab it.

He's a former teammate after all.

Wouldn't it be a sudden change of route today?

He was afraid that Dejan Lu would suddenly start riding the bicycle again, so he did not dare to stretch his legs rashly.

Butt Spread your legs and press your center of gravity.

Click——

At this moment, Dejan Lu started directly with a move of his right foot.

Cutting in so early?

Cantona Seeing this, he quickly came over to grab it.

Dejan Lu stretches out his right foot and dribbles the ball laterally to avoid it, and then moves the ball diagonally with the outer instep of his right foot.

The long lateral dribbling threw Manchester United's defensive system into chaos. Paolo Maldini moved forward and frantically raised his hand to signal Dejan Lu to pass the ball.

Bang——

At this moment, Dejan Lu turned around and took a long shot. He hurriedly hit the ball. The ball flew past the back line and bounced towards the lower right corner, but was successfully blocked by Schmeichel.

Van Basten's follow-up shot was blocked by Gary·Neville's foot, and the ball bounced high into the penalty area.

Reiziger, who was standing in the middle, took the ball and passed it to Dejan Lu immediately, and then returned to the right.

Dejan Lu continues to rush forward with the ball.

Desailly bent over and pressed his center of gravity. Dejan Lu took small steps forward and suddenly started to move his right foot. Phil·Neville had no time to make up the position. Dejan Lu, who had already slipped out of the angle, quickly curled the ball with his right foot in the top corner of the penalty area.

Bang - this ball was given very accurately. Totti kept pushing the ball directly with the instep of his feet and hit a tricky angle. Unfortunately, Schmeichel took off and lifted the crossbar.

"Oh, almost!"

"AC Milan attacks continuously, putting enough pressure on them."

"Although Totti failed to score, his shot still created a corner kick. AC Milan launched 4 attacks in these five minutes. It was a test for the concentration of Manchester United's defense. If you slack off a little, you may lose the ball."

"Dejan went to the corner flag area in person. Today Dejan's official corner kick penalty kicker Baggio is not here. Haha, running... Van Basten fell to the ground in front of the goal. The AC Milan player signaled that it was a penalty kick. The players on both sides were very emotional and the referee did not call it."

"Schmeichel also felt the pressure, so he didn't kick off immediately. Schmeichel passed the ball to Phillip·Neville, and Phillip·Neville took the ball forward himself."

Dejan Lu is still very active in grabbing.

Little Neville was forced to pass the ball to Butt in front.

Butt was pressed by Albertini just after he got the ball. Seeing Ronaldo retreating, he immediately passed it to Ronaldo.

Ronaldo kept changing his center of gravity when dribbling. He took a few steps diagonally, then raised his right foot and dropped it again. After a fake shot, he changed direction and headed into the penalty area. He forced his way into the penalty area from the right against four defensive players and formed a single shot.

Fortunately, Buffon, who struck out at the moment he shot, fell to the ground to block the ball, then stood up and jumped to take the ball off.

"Ronaldo was also anxious and began to retreat significantly. He picked up the ball near the midfield and then dribbled the ball for a long shot. In terms of ability, it is indeed very good, but sometimes there are better options."

Cruyff thinks it would be good to let Ronaldo take over from Van Basten.

Unfortunately, Ferguson may not agree.

After playing Manchester United's ace for two consecutive years, Ferguson will probably fly from Manchester to Milan City to kill.

Ronaldo walked back with his head lowered.

Several Milan defensive players stared wide-eyed.

Damn it, I defeated a few people and then fired from 40 meters away, I was somewhat out of character.

Still breaking through on the left.

Why does this scene feel so familiar?

Redondo and Paolo Maldini both turned to look at Dejan Lu.

Damn it, isn't this what Dejan Lu usually does.

His speed and his body make him hit after he has overtaken someone. In the past, it was because his teammates were not the right person, so they didn't feel anything.

But when it's my opponent who does this, it's really annoying.

Dejan Lu also noticed the shot.

The peak Ronaldo is really not just a boast.

As for the passing speed just now, Dejan Lu doesn't feel that it is much worse than him.

The fastest players are all around 10.5 seconds, but their performance on the sidelines is completely different.

At this time, Ronaldo's breakthrough highlighted an unreasonable aspect, so it's no wonder that he got the nickname the Alien.

Sacchi stood on the sidelines with arms folded.

He was still very satisfied with the situation on the court today.

Milan's 442 is a variant of 451, 433. Totti is the position behind the number nine, Tianke 442 diamond midfielder.

The two wingers can easily penetrate the opponent's midfielder, so Milan has an advantage on the scene.

"Marco, you said Ferguson changed the formation to target us. Do you think we are going to change the formation?"

Sacchi asked.

???

Tardelli I don't understand.

After a few seconds, he quickly nodded and said, "Yes, yes, Arrigo, if you don't change the formation, it is the biggest change of formation, which is the best tactic. This is to win Ferguson in the psychological game. Although he is good, he is still a little worse than you."

"Well, try not to say that outside as much as possible. It's not good for others to hear."

Sacchi waved his hand and said.

Tardelli looked at Sacchi's mouth that couldn't close and rolled his eyes fiercely.

You don't need an assistant coach, you need a court jester.

A few minutes later Ronaldo made a comeback again. He dribbled the ball down the left wing and then made a horizontal Pendulum Dribble that made the whole audience exclaim. After attracting the defensive attention, he passed an inverted triangle back, but Cantona's long shot hit Paolo Maldini's chest and popped out of the penalty area.

The ball hadn't bounced too far. Phillip·Neville saw the landing point and wanted to kick it directly, but Dejan Lu rushed up from the wing, jumped high and shook his head, and put the ball in front of Davis.

Milan launched a counterattack.

Little Neville gritted his teeth and ran back.

If you can't catch up, you're going to lose the ball.

Dejan Lu dare not rush too fast. After all, Manchester United's backcourt is empty. If Davis passes the ball too far, it will be offside.

While rushing forward, Dejan Lu was always paying attention to the position of his teammates.

At this time, Dejan Lu saw someone approaching Davis quickly.

He didn't shout for fear of distracting his teammates.

However, Beckham still made a sliding tackle from an angle and sent the ball out of the sideline.

"David!"

The Red Devilss in the stands were excited.

This season, Beckham has the potential to surpass Shearer and become the number one player in the UK.

It's good to be handsome.

"Dejan, don't chase back. Don't defend too deep. Try to score another goal as quickly as possible to seal the victory." Sacchi shouted from the sidelines.

Dejan Lu raised his hand and made the OK gesture.

The coach finally made some demands, but he should still be satisfied.

Coco wants to throw the ball to Dejan Lu, but Butt keeps swimming in front of Dejan Lu.

This was a bit risky, so Coco still threw it sideways to Redondo.

Redondo turned around and kicked the ball horizontally. Albertini immediately returned the ball to Dejan Lu who was retreating.

Dejan Lu picked up the ball at the front of the center circle. Desailly thought he would continue to break through with the ball.

But he didn't expect Dejan Lu to turn around and immediately use his calf force to send a through ball.

This kick was very hidden and very fast. Parister didn't even react before the ball passed by him.

"Van Basten, oh, what a pity, we were still a step too late. Schmeichel threw the ball hard. This was to launch a quick counterattack."

"The goalkeepers of both teams have pretty good arm strength. I don't know who can throw farther."

Cantona didn't stick to the ball. He knew that he was not fast, so he took the ball past the center line and immediately split it to the right.

Beckham rushed forward with the ball.

The fans in front of the TV can clearly feel the difference in speed between him and Dejan Lu, but in the counterattack, this speed is enough.

Beckham ran to the bottom line, and Coco returned to his position.

Coco wanted to rush out of the penalty area to press, but Beckham had already sent a cross sideways.

The ball flew past Coco, Baresi and Ronaldo rushed to the right together, Ronaldo reacted faster, and Scorpion Kick changed the path of the ball before it hit the ground.

Cantona, who rushed up, leaned back to accumulate strength and then took off with a header, sending the ball into Milan's goal in front of Buffon.

Cantona, who scored the goal, rushed to the home fans' stands and wildly raised his arms to the stands.

"Goal scored!"

"1:1, in the 33rd minute of the first half, Ronaldo assisted Cantona to change the score. The two sides returned to the same starting line again."

"Manchester United's counterattack was also quite exciting. In addition to Beckham's good pass, Scorpion Kick from Ronaldo was even more amazing, sending the ball to the left for Cantona to successfully header the goal."

"This Manchester United team is still very strong, AC Milan must be careful."

"I have been keeping an eye on Ronaldo, but he still found an opportunity. Although it was not his own shot, his assist changed the path of the ball and still caused chaos in front of the goal. Cantona only needed a slight adjustment when he grabbed the point."

"The game is developing towards the situation that the fans hope for. Today's game is bound to be a fierce battle. Maybe we can witness the first golden goal in the Champions League."

Cruyff said with a smile.

However, he still believes that Manchester United has no chance of entering overtime. Dejan Lu is not that easy to mess with.
