Chapter 397 I will fight to the death!

The referee blew the whistle to end the game.

The score of 4 to 0 on the scoreboard seemed extremely shocking.

In the stands, AC Milan fans couldn't help but celebrate their victory.

They had every reason to believe that the Rossoneri had already won the Champions League and there would be no suspense in the second half.

Not only those in the stands, but even the usually neutral TV commentators were very surprised by the trend of the first half and were very disappointed with Barcelona's performance.

"Even before the final, we knew that Barcelona's defense was very fragile. Their journey through the knockout rounds was extremely thrilling. They were reversed in almost every round. They relied on the team's offense to get to where they are today."

"But we never thought that they would be so vulnerable in this final against AC Milan. Even our biggest question now is, how many goals can AC Milan, who is in such excellent form, score tonight?"

"Since the 1992-1993 season, when the Champions League was reformed, no player has ever scored a hat-trick in the Champions League final. The most that can be scored is a brace, and Crespo is the player closest to this record now."

"With AC Milan's strong performance in the first half, we have every reason to believe that Crespo will have a chance in the second half."

"This final also ruthlessly revealed the true level of Barcelona, ​​allowing everyone to see clearly that this Dream Team II, which is on the road to revival, has no competitiveness at all in front of the real European powerhouses."

"Sudon tried hard, but he didn't get any support in front. According to the data we got, Sudon only had one shot in the first half. Stam and Nesta blocked him perfectly, and Barcelona did not provide him with enough support."

"Ronaldinho is the same. When the team was in dire straits, he did not play the role that a superstar should play. Even under the blockade of his compatriot Cafu, he also performed poorly. This is not right."

"Before the game, Liverpool coach Benítez said that Barcelona's entry into the Champions League final was a coincidence and a kind of luck, and Su Dong was Barcelona's luck."

"In this game, Ancelotti's players completely blocked Su Dong and Barcelona completely lost their luck."

"The first half of the game is over!"

"Four to zero, AC Milan is temporarily leading."

"But we believe that they are only 45 minutes away from the Champions League trophy."

"The next 45 minutes will be very painful for Barcelona, ​​but they have to finish the game, even if they lose the ball again."

“But that’s football!”

"Although we are reluctant to say this, we must congratulate AC Milan. They killed all suspense in the first half."

"No miracles in Istanbul tonight!"

"Even God can't save Barcelona!"

…………

…………

After the whistle sounded, the fans in the stands were clearly divided into two groups.

Barcelona fans looked extremely distressed, some even burst into tears, while AC Milan fans were in a frenzy.

This is normal, the score of four to zero has basically ended the battle!

Su Dong walked slowly towards the player tunnel.

Along the way, Kaka, Pirlo, Nesta and others high-fived him and comforted him.

But this well-intentioned comfort made Su Dong very painful and even angry.

He doesn't like this feeling!

I especially don’t like it when other teammates hang their heads like lost dogs.

This makes the AC Milan players look exceptionally tall and powerful.

…

Ronaldo, Pepe, Semedo, David Silva and others, sitting with Marcos Senna, were all in disbelief about the first half of the game, which completely subverted their expectations of the game.

"I know your defense is bad, but I didn't expect it to be this bad. Oleg and Valdez..."

Pepe pointed at Oleguer and Valdes who walked into the player tunnel, his heart full of resentment.

He thinks, how can such a player gain a foothold in Barcelona? "This is actually a long-term problem. On the one hand, we need to control the ball, and to control the ball we need to pass the ball, and to pass the ball we need to run out of the receiving point, and if the players try to run out of the receiving point, the defensive formation cannot remain compact and tight."

Marcos Senna also has a deep understanding of this because he was Barcelona's main midfielder in the second half of the La Liga.

"This is not a problem for Barcelona alone. On the contrary, if you look at Real Madrid, the problem is also very obvious. Isn't Oleguer the equivalent of Pavon? The only difference is that Real Madrid stopped in the round of 16, while we made it to the final."

When Pepe heard this, he showed a funny and absurd look, "So, Su Dong dragging the team to the finals is not a good thing?"

"You know that's not what I meant," Marcos Senna defended.

"Okay." Ronnie waved his hand, interrupting the disagreement between the two.

All of Europe knows that if it weren't for Su Dongbo, Barcelona would never have made it to the final, and couldn't even get past Bayern Munich.

With Barcelona's defensive level this season, it is really difficult for them to qualify from the group stage.

"Everyone knows that Barcelona has a big defensive problem, but it was exposed more obviously tonight, which allowed AC Milan to score again and again. But what's interesting is how Rijkaard arranged the attack? Why was it always Su Dong alone? Did he think that Su Dong could take on Stam and Nesta alone?"

Marcos Senna smiled bitterly and remained speechless because he didn't know either.

Sometimes, everyone in the Barcelona locker room felt that Rijkaard's tactics were really strange.

If you say he has ideas, they are indeed very clear and they are mainly focused on the overall situation.

For example, he has always known very clearly that he wants the traditional Dutch style and the kind of football that Cruyff played in his Dream Team. He admires talented players, so he will give them the greatest freedom in attack.

If you encounter a problem, OK, Superstar will solve it! What if Superstar can’t solve it?

Sorry, there was nothing he could do! "Originally, I was looking forward to watching a match where Su Dong showed his might and killed all the opponents, and then I would brag about it to my girlfriends, but in the end..." Jose Semedo also sighed.

Barcelona lost so badly that he had less material to brag about.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Everyone was amused for a moment, but soon froze.

Only Ronnie still had no intention of giving up.

"I believe that Su Dong will not give up so easily. He must still be trying to find a way. Even if the whole world thinks he is doomed to lose and has given up on him, I still believe in him!" Ronnie said with certainty.

…………

…………

There was deathly silence in the locker room.

Su Dong could imagine the disappointment, frustration and even some complaints among the Barcelona friends and family outside.

But he couldn't care about these at the moment.

Rijkaard and Ten Cate walked into the locker room, but the Dutch Black Swan only said, "We played too badly in the first half," and then asked the players, "What do you think of the second half?"

The only response he got was silence! 0-4, this is a score that has never been seen in the history of the Champions League final. Who knows what to do? Su Dong was angry. Seeing that no one spoke, he stood up directly.

Everyone in the locker room focused their attention on Su Dong, and they were all very surprised.

Usually at times like this, it is the captain Puyol who comes out to say something to boost morale, so why is it that Su Dong is the one who comes out now? "I think that at this time, we shouldn't be asked what we think, but someone should tell us what to do in the second half. But since no one is saying it, I'll say it!"

Su Dong's words made Rijkaard a little embarrassed.

He has always adopted a hands-off approach to governance. To put it nicely, it is called humane management. To put it bluntly, he wants to maintain his image as a good guy.

But as a manager, how is it possible not to offend people?

"I don't know why we were played like this in the first half, but I'm curious. We weren't like this against Bayern and Chelsea. We were beaten 0-4 in the first half tonight. Isn't this enough to explain the problem? Do we have any other choice?"

"We can either continue the situation in the first half and play the remaining 45 minutes in a cowardly manner, or we can go all out and attack the opponent and score if we can. In any case, we have to fight for the dignity we lost in the first half and make everyone believe that the first half was just an accident."

"Perhaps, you will ask, it's already 0-4, is there still a chance?"

"My answer is that this is not a question of whether or not there is a chance, nor a question of whether or not you win, but a question of dignity!"

"If you are willing to accept this kind of failure, I will feel extremely ashamed. If you are like me, unwilling and full of anger, then vent it on the court, let the AC Milan players feel some of our anger, and let all those who laughed at us in the first half know us again!"

"Maybe we will lose, maybe we will be defeated, but so what? At least we are like warriors and can walk out of this stadium with our heads held high!"

After Su Dong finished speaking, he returned to his seat. As soon as he sat down, Puyol stood up.

"I think what Su said is right. Let's not think about the score or winning or losing. We should just play for the last 45 minutes for our own dignity!"

Harvey also stood up. "I'm just like Su, I'm filled with anger right now. We played so poorly in the first half!"

Ronaldinho felt unwilling when he heard his teammates' opinions.

In the competition for the No. 1 player in Barcelona, ​​he has already lost to Su Dong. If he loses to Kaka again tonight, will he also lose his position as the No. 1 player in Brazil? Thinking of this, the Brazilian also stood up and said, "I didn't perform well in the first half, I will fight hard in the second half!"

For a person whose philosophy is happy football, saying words like "desperate" is already very serious.

Others immediately expressed their opinions as well, all showing their determination.

After hearing this, Rijkaard looked at Su Dong deeply again and nodded secretly in his heart.

After tonight, Sudong's status in the Barcelona locker room is bound to rise to a higher level, and he may even be inferior to captain Puyol.

The premise is that the team can regain its dignity in the second half.
