The tired São Paulo do not want to play overtime. There are also AC Milan players who do not want to play overtime.
Both sides intensified their offense after 75 minutes at the time point.
The difference is that under the dispatch of Pirlo, AC Milan raised the speed all at once, and the rhythm suddenly accelerated; while the players of São Paulo still seemed a little ignorant, their minds were not unified, and some players' physical fitness dropped dramatically, resulting in three The thread pulled a little bit open.
Roxas knew he had to make a substitution decision. But who will change? Who's on the field? These main players on the field are irreplaceable for the time being.
Once Ricardo and Ricardo were replaced, São Paulo's offense would have to end.
By replacing Fabiano, São Paulo's ability to seize opportunities will be reduced.
The replacement of Rico, Antonio and Ferrera does not seem to have any impact on the team, because they are not star players. But there are no players on the bench who can replace them.
But there must be substitutions, and the exhausted 11 cannot be allowed to handle the entire game on the court. The appearance of several fresh forces is ultimately helpful to the team. Even if the technology is almost poor, the consciousness is almost, but the physical fitness is sufficient, which can exert a lot of pressure on the opponent.
After thinking for a long time, Roxas finally made up his mind.
Leonardo replaced Rico and moved back to play on the right.
Junior Elton replaced Marco Antonio, playing the front waist position, specifically harassing Pirlo. Riccardinho retreated, reducing his defensive pressure and continuing to be responsible for midfield scheduling.
The younger player Tardelli replaced Luis Fabiano, placed it on the left, and kicked an unfamiliar left forward.
Ricardo went to the top and acted as an arrow.
This is the best way that Roxas can think of.
But after this substitution, São Paulo did not show much improvement.
Tardelli and Elton both lacked game experience, and it was really difficult for them to play against experienced world-class players like Gattuso, Pirlo, and Cafu.
Despite their physical strength and impact, they kicked like headless flies.
Riccardinho retreated, avoiding Gattuso's strangulation, but Seedorf. Seedorf's defensive experience is also very old. In this game, Seedorf has been invisible, but in the midfield organization, defense and offense have made a huge contribution to AC Milan.
Last season, many media believed that AC Milan traded left-back Koko for Seedorf, the best deal that AC Milan has done in the past 10 years, because this completed the final piece of the AC Milan championship.
It was Seedorf's addition that made AC Milan's midfielder complete and eventually won the Champions League.
Riccardinho is a very good player, but before the confrontation with Gattuso, Pirlo, and now against Seedorf, they are all at a disadvantage.
In the 83 minutes of the game, AC Milan completed several threatening offensives. Although São Paulo's offensive did exist, most of them did not create a real threat.
Roxas stood on the sideline and yelled, so that the young players Tardelli and Elton stepped up the frontcourt, grabbed the ball and gave it to Ricardo.
The midfield is poorly organized and the defense is full of loopholes. This is not a problem with the player, but a problem with the team.
Roxas has no other thoughts. At this time, he can only choose one person to trust, and hope that this person can become a hero and kill the game with his own power.
It's like two boxers fighting each other on the boxing ring. One of them has an absolute advantage, and the other is beaten and swayed.
At this time, the latter has only one chance, and can only release his own killer. If it succeeds, it will come back. If it fails, it will lose the game.
He can only use his best efforts and the most trusted tricks.
The person Roxas chose to believe was Ricardo.
In the 84th minute, Tardelli's frontcourt rush allowed Kafo to make a mistake and kicked the ball out of the sideline. Tardelli immediately threw the ball from the frontcourt and handed it to Elton. Elton wanted to find Ricardo after getting the ball, but saw that Ricardo was stared to death and had to pass back to Ricardo.
But at this time, Ricardo had already used the running position to run out of neutral. Ricardo was immediately plugged in. Ricardo had no extra strength to break the ball after taking the ball and chose to shoot in place. His shot at 17 meters from the goal was resolved by Dida to create a corner kick.
The corner was taken, Maldini headed off and ac Milan launched a counterattack. The ball quickly passed the midfield and hit the front of the penalty area of São Paulo. Pirlo rubbed an overhead ball with his right foot, and the football accurately found Shevchenko. Shevchenko leaned against Julio Santos with his body, stopped the ball with his chest in a hurry, turned right foot and volleyed 7 meters away from the goal. Cheney judged in the wrong direction, but he was there with help. Midair, blocked the ball with your vacated legs.
In the 86th minute, Riccardinho retreated to the position of the lower back and made a long and accurate pass to find Ricardo. Ricardo reluctantly took a few steps to shake off Gattuso, but was immediately overtaken by Gattuso. Lying down from behind. Gattuso already had a yellow card in his possession, and this time Ivanov showed mercy and did not show him a second yellow card.
Ricardo personally took the free kick, and the football flew off the baseline.
After 1 minute, AC Milan had a chance to kill the game. Ferreira kicked Seedorf in front of the penalty area. Ivanov gave AC Milan a free kick in the frontcourt.
Pirlo took a low arc free kick and gave it to the front. Inzaghi grabbed the ball and scored.
At that moment Roxas almost collapsed Fortunately, the lineman raised a flag to indicate that Inzaghi was offside, and referee Ivanov declared the goal invalid.
AC Milan protested around Ivanov for a long time, Ivanov did not change the penalty and the game continued.
Soon after 90 minutes of regular time had run out, the fourth official held up the electronic card for 3 minutes of stoppage time.
The running of both sides slowed down, and only a few players who just came on the court were able to run and sprint quickly.
In the 91st minute, Ricardo's long pass found Ricardo. Ricardo turned an "l" shape and found a little gap in front of Maldini. Then he did not entangle with Maldini too much and directly passed the ball. Hit the middle. Follow-up Elton raised his leg and shoveled, but he took a slow shot and the football was kicked by Pancarlo first, which destroyed it. Leonardo rushed for a shot, but the ball hit the sideline heavily.
ac Milan kicked the goal kick. Under the pressure of São Paulo, they played a little chaotic and delivered the ball to the side of Pancarlo. Pancarlo was ready to pass to the front court and kicked Leonardo.
The youngster Elton quickly controlled the second landing point, and according to Roxas' instructions, quickly rushed to find Ricardo.
