In this round of 16 of the Italian Cup , AC Milan arranged for Ibrahimovic to start in order to make the veteran who has returned from injury look for status. The Swedes have not fully recovered from the injury, which also made the first half of the game dull. In the second half, Milan replaced Z9z Charhanoglu , Casey, Special Olympics and other main players, playing multiple offensive climaxes. If it wasn't for the poor frame, AC Milan didn't need to wait until the penalty shootout to advance to the top 8. Z2z
Ibrahimovic state is average: the counterattack effect fails to maximize the value that
Ibrahimovic brings to AC Milan, not just an offensive core. Because of the existence of Ibrahimovic, AC Milan's attack can be used to break the game with fewer personnel. Ibrahimovic knows more about putting pressure on the penalty zone when he was younger, and he played more concisely and efficiently.
is on Turin's side, this field uses a three-back formation, through the center forward to help defend the back waist flank, limiting Milan's Ibrahimovic fulcrum play. The Swedes, who have just recovered from injury, are in a normal state, and their advantages in the confrontation are not as obvious as before. Z2z
was intercepted by the opponent center back this time, and Ibrahimovic also seemed a little helpless. Torino's counterattack was instigated by the striker Zaza, but the threat of the final touch is not big.
Ibrahimovic has some very creative small ball moves in the penalty area, which is conducive to the opponents from the back row. However, the defense between the three central defenders in Torino did a good job in the first half. This time, Dias inserted the ball in front of Ibrahimovic, but was destroyed by the opponent's close.
Ibrahimovic as an arrow, his speed is not fast, but good flexibility, the first point of the ability to take the ball. Once emptied, the stride after the long legs are opened is amazing, and it can also produce a good instant counterattack effect. But this time Ibrahimovic shot too hurriedly after reaching the penalty area, and he sent the ball away without adjustment.
replaced Ibrahimovic to fight the wolves move: find the weakness of the Torino three-back system
AC Milan's purpose in this field is to let Ibrahimovic look for the state, so he replaced him after the halftime break. Charhanoglu, who played on the field, became the core of the offense, adding Heyug's rib contact point, AC Milan played more details. After Ibrahimovic was injured this season, AC Milan can still play at a high level, which is related to the wealth of available personnel on the striker. With the growth of Leo, Rebic and Castillejo are more adaptable to Serie A , as well as buying potential rookies such as Heyug and loaning Dias, under the passing series of Charhanoglu , Can also play an excellent pack of wolves tactics.
Turin's three-center defender system is bound to reduce one midfielder. The appearance of Charhanoglu added a delivery point for passing the ball to the core area. To find Turin's weakness through the front insertion of many people. This time Kalulu ran sideways to open the screen, and Leo, who was straight in his ribs, formed a single chance, but unfortunately he did not grasp it.
then AC Milan passed the horizontal fast back-up, and then created a chance to press on the side and make a pass. Many people in the middle followed up, forming two outlining lines of 2+3.
This time Dalot got the chance to pass into the penalty area in the left pass after his teammates passed continuously. It's a pity that Calabria outflanked the goal, and the ball hit the defender and hit the right post to eject the bottom line.
Let's take a look at this offense again. Kalulu, who performed extremely well in this field, sent a cross on the right. It's a pity that Dias in the midfield followed up and was blocked by Milinkovic. Then Dalot's supplementary shot once again hit the right post and was cleared.
AC Milan shot 23-9 and shot 13-3. If it were not for bad luck, they should have won the game in 90 minutes. Z2z
won the penalty shootout: This Milan's heart is extremely tough.
In the days when Ibrahimovic was injured this season, AC Milan showed excellent heart and toughness. Many times at the last minute of the game, the team is still the sameStay at the top of the Serie A standings. Even though he missed the goal by hitting the door frame many times in this field, the Rossoneri still had nothing to do with the penalty kick. Goalkeeper Tatarusanu saved Rincon’s penalty to let them win the game.
successfully advanced to the top 8 of the Coppa Italia, AC Milan will face the pressure of third-line combat in 2021. However, the team's morale is high and there are many attack points that can be rotated on the front line. Being able to advance in the three fronts may even become a reason for the boss to continue to buy people.
Concluding remarks:
Although the fans of AC Milan are generally older, although the broadcast of the Rossoneri this season is mostly in the early hours of the morning. However, with such an outstanding record and passion, countless old fans seem to have returned to their youth. I hope AC Milan will make persistent efforts in 2021 and rekindle the flame of youth.
