While the players from both sides were still waiting in the players' tunnel, Dick had already walked out of the players' tunnel.
More than 63,000 fans poured into the entire Old Trafford stadium, including 20,000 Dortmund fans and 20,000 AC Milan fans. They clearly occupied the north and south sides of the stadium, wearing the club's home jersey. All of them were neutral fans. This game attracted quite a lot of people. German Chancellor Schroeder appeared at the scene to support Dortmund, and the former players of Dortmund's Champions League team showed up at the scene one by one. ¡ª¡ªKlaus, Heinrich, Paulo Sousa, Kohler, Sammer, Chapuisat, Andreas Muller They are in the same stand with Dortmund's current management All the players were wearing Dortmund jerseys and cheering for their team.
AC Milan was naturally not to be outdone. The legendary Baresi appeared in the stands. Weah, Savicevic, Boban Berlusconi, the boss behind AC Milan, came to the scene in a private helicopter on the day of the game. The whole stand is a gathering of stars!
However, when Dick came out of the tunnel, all eyes were on him.
Dortmund fans gave out huge cheers, including those former Dortmund players, while AC Milan fans were booing Dick crazily. Everyone knows that in terms of overall strength, Dortmund is far inferior to AC Milan, but because of Dick's command, they successively eliminated Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Juventus who were no worse than AC Milan to enter the final. In the eyes of AC Milan fans, this guy is AC Milan's biggest enemy. !
Half is seawater, half is flame.
????????? Half of it is outright admiration, and half of it is hysterical disgust.
Such opposite emotions are enough to make most people at least feel extremely irritated, but Dick seems to enjoy such cheers.
He raised his hands and waved to the stands occupied by Dortmund fans, then turned to look at the stands occupied by AC Milan fans, and then he grinned.
Then he made a move that silenced the entire audience - the Champions League trophy was placed in the middle of the players' tunnel, with two security guards standing next to it, but Dick walked over in a swaggering manner, and stood in front of him. After getting close to the Champions League trophy, he raised his hand and touched the Champions League trophy, then pointed at the Champions League, and then pointed at himself!
The whole place was in an uproar.
"Cough cough cough cough" A CCTV celebrity who was drinking water spit out all the tea. He coughed and said: "Di Dick made such an action What did he mean? WellII think he should be showing his confidence, Dick has always been a head coach who has the courage to show himself"
"Arrogant Chinese! Doesn't he know what restraint is? Before the game even started, he did such an unethical behavior in front of everyone! It was really the ugliest scene in the Champions League final!" said the Italian commentator. said angrily.
"Uh Well Dick always makes unexpected moves But for Dortmund, who is at a disadvantage, perhaps it is because of Dick's attitude of never admitting defeat that he has been supporting them moving forward "
After the scene was in an uproar for a while, the Dortmund fans began to laugh, and then began to clap their hands to celebrate Dick, while the AC Milan fans began to curse one after another, but regardless of the anger Neither scolding nor praise could make Dick change. He strolled to his coach's bench and sat down comfortably.
"This action of yours makes those guys almost explode"
"That's the best." Dick laughed.
This episode did not last long, because soon, under the leadership of the four referees, players from both sides began to enter the field. Dortmund's players also saw Dick's previous series of actions, which made While they wanted to laugh, they also felt infinite pride in their hearts!
The boss has nothing to fear! He is so confident! Then follow his words and we will surely win!
This is not superstition, but the results Dick has led the team to achieve this season, which makes them have enough trust in Dick!
Since he dares to make such an action, he must be confident enough!
With this thought in mind, the Dortmund players walked onto the court with courage, waiting for the game to start.
The first to kick off was Dortmund.
Cavinagi passed the ball to Rivaldo, RivaldoMany passes were passed back to Rosicky who came up from behind to receive the ball. Rosicky stopped the ball at his feet and looked up to observe the movement in the frontcourt.
Shevchenko and Inzaghi quickly came forward. Although they are both good offensive players, in such a game, they will still participate in defense.
Rosicky did not choose to force a breakthrough, but passed the ball sideways to Frings, who came up to respond. Frings did not take the ball, but pushed the ball with the arch of his foot and passed the ball to Rui who was on the edge of the cover. special.
Ruit began to dribble the ball along the wing, and this time he advanced boldly-Dick said before the game that if you get the right to kick off in the first half, the first attack must be bold, but there are One point is that when the attack fails, there is either a dead ball or a foul. You must not let the opponent easily get the ball and start a counterattack!
So Ruyter moves forward very carefully, he has enough experience, and a formation like AC Milan is a bit weak on the midfield wing
Seedorf came over to defend Ruyt's progress, but at this time Ruyt, who was quite physically fit, moved the ball forward and then accelerated the breakthrough!
Seedorf failed to stop Ruit's breakthrough in the first time, which allowed Ruit to break through the midfield and then started dribbling the ball from the wing. Everton came to the wing to help him attract the opponent's attention. .
Before Pirlo came to defend, Ruyt had already raised his foot and passed the ball directly to the edge of the penalty area!
Through running, Cavinaji appeared at the front of the penalty area. After receiving Ruit's pass, he immediately turned around and shot!
Cavinagi's shot was so sudden that even he himself felt that the opponent's defender would not appear on the route to block it immediately. However, when he just shot the ball, Nesta came Appeared in his shooting path, then turned his body slightly and blocked the ball with his body!
The ball bounced near the sideline. Costacurta wanted to control the ball, but at this time Rivaldo rushed up and used a very rare tackle to the ground to shovel the ball directly out of the sideline!
"Rivaldo was very active! This tackle prevented a counterattack by AC Milan. From the slow motion, we can see that when Costacurta was about to take the ball, Costa was already ready to respond, and Shevchenko and Inzaghi in the frontcourt had already started running, Rivaldo broke the ball out of the baseline, and Dortmund won the opportunity to defend! "
Dick nodded slightly, it was good to be able to do this.
Ancelotti pursed his lips. He expected that such a game would be so difficult. After all, in such a final, even the laziest players would probably fight hard. , let alone Rivaldo, who has never had a Champions League honor?
For a player like him who is over 30 years old, has made enough money, and has won all other honors, except for such a heavyweight honor, he will definitely perform even more than usual in such a game. Excellent!
However, Dortmund's determined defense also made Ancelotti feel something was wrong.
He didn¡¯t have time to think anything was wrong, the players on the field had already started playing.
Costacurta threw a throw-in, and AC Milan began to attack. Pirlo controlled the ball at his feet and wanted to organize the attack. In his eyes, Dortmund's pressing was not very fierce, which made him feel a little strange.
So Pirlo began to choose to dribble the ball forward by himself. After passing through the center circle arc, he immediately knew why he felt that Dortmund's defense was not tight before!
After he entered Dortmund's half, the entire Dortmund half seemed to have received some signal and began to move quickly, just like the originally calm lake was filled with quiet piranhas. Once an enemy broke in, , and immediately began to devour crazily!
Cavinagi rushed towards Pirlo. Pirlo's ball control ability was able to control the ball very well, but when he looked up, he found that there seemed to be no passing route
Seedorf is followed by Frings, Kyle is pressing Costa, Shevchenko and Inzaghi are under the tight surveillance of the opponent's defenders, and Rosicky and Rivaldo are watching The entire Dortmund field Except for goalkeeper Lehmann, the other ten people on the team all started to defend!
This made Pirlo's offensive organization go very smoothly. He finally seized a chance to pass the ball to Costa. Costa immediately distributed the ball to the left. After Seedorf received the ball, he attracted Ruit's Attention, and then passed the ball to Kaladze who was on the edge of the cover. Kaladze directly kicked the ball and made a pass. Warnes jumped in front of Inzaghi and headed the ball.The ball cleared the baseline.
After the clearance, Warnes breathed a sigh of relief. Inzaghi's running was too weird. Such running made Warnes, who had adapted to the Bundesliga confrontation, feel very uncomfortable, so he chose to make a clearance first.
Pirlo took a corner kick, Ismail and Inzaghi got entangled, and eventually the ball flew out of the sideline. Inzaghi complained that Ismail was pulling people, but in fact his actions were not small. The referee gave them a warning at the same time and each scored fifty boards.
Dick nodded slightly. Judging from the current situation, if AC Milan is fully defensive, it will not be easy for AC Milan to find opportunities. Inzaghi's running is certainly troublesome, but Dortmund's two Central defenders are all players who are very good at judging their placement. As long as they don't make mistakes, there will be no problem!
In Dick¡¯s view, in this final, the most important thing for Dortmund is always defense! If the defense cannot be guaranteed, then Dortmund will not have any chance of winning, because it is very difficult to break through the door of AC Milan, not to mention that although AC Milan's Serie A points are 11 points less than Juventus, However, due to style reasons, Dortmund can suppress Juventus, but cannot suppress AC Milan - because the technical content and running ability of AC Milan's midfielder are no worse than Dortmund's.
"This is going to be a long battle" Dick thought to himself.
