Green Field Eunuch

Chapter 95 The Helpless Ambrosini
After the game restarted, AC Milan tightened their defense against Shan Yongzhuo. The number of strong teams that were on him was twice as many as the number on Toni, or even more.

At this point, AC Milan still showed its strength.

Pirlo has matured and become more sophisticated. His passes are incredibly powerful, always finding gaps in Roma's defense and delivering a decisive, deadly pass.

AC Milan launched a series of attacks, posing a significant threat and gaining a certain advantage in the game.

In the 36th minute, AC Milan had a good chance. Pirlo made a long pass to Flamini, who was making a run down the wing. Flamini then passed the ball into the penalty area.

Pato rushed over, but fortunately Mexes got into position in time and cleared the ball with a long kick.

Ronaldinho received the ball on the perimeter and seemed about to shoot, but suddenly changed direction, shaking off Taddei and dribbling into the penalty area.

Ronaldinho wasn't particularly fast, but he created a time difference, preventing Taddei from keeping up. Just as Taddei was about to shoot, Mexes came from the other side, sliding in and blocking Ronaldinho between the goal and the goal.

Ronaldinho's shot hit Mexes directly and bounced to Burdisso's feet. Burdisso then kicked the ball out, thwarting the attack.

"Philip, are you alright?"

Seeing that Mexes had been lying on the ground for a long time, Perrotta kicked the ball out of bounds, and his teammates rushed over to help.

Mexes' face was ashen, and he clutched his groin as if he had suffered a severe injury. It took him a long time to stand up again, but he glared at Ronaldinho with a rather unpleasant expression.

Ronaldinho was somewhat innocent; it was clearly the other player who charged at him, but now it seemed as if he had intentionally injured him.

The others found it hilarious that Mexes had so bravely blocked AC Milan's shot with his brother.

Shan Yongzhuo also felt great sympathy for Mexes. If something really happened, Mexes would be finished. No one could understand the pain of being a eunuch better than him.

After the game restarted, AC Milan passed the ball back to Roma, and Roma launched another attack from their own half. By this time, the clock had reached 39 minutes.

After Shan Yongzhuo's Mighty Vajra Leg technique ended again, he became slightly more aggressive.

Ambrosini, who was standing nearby, immediately noticed this and loudly reminded his teammate.

"Watch out, this guy's getting serious!"

Upon receiving the warning, Thiago Silva and Nesta immediately took precautions.

Roma's attack successfully reached the frontcourt. Perrotta dribbled the ball on the wing, got past Flamini, and then moved laterally towards the penalty area. After a short distance, he was brought down by Bonera who followed up.

"foul!"

The referee gave Bonera a yellow card and also awarded Roma a free kick.

The ball's position wasn't particularly good; it was on the left side of the goal, about 28 meters away, and the angle was a bit tight.

However, Shan Yongzhuo didn't care; with the powerful Vajra Leg kick, the probability of scoring was very high.

The referee signaled that a free throw was allowed and blew the whistle.

Dan Yongzhuo took a few steps back, then shuffled forward, swung his right foot, and kicked the ball out forcefully.

Abbiati stood in front of the goal, his view blocked by someone else, and the ball's curve was too great, with impeccable speed and angle. He tried his best to save it, but there was nothing he could do, and he could only watch the ball go into the goal.

"3 to 0!"

"Shan Yongzhuo is playing like a madman! He's already scored a hat-trick before halftime!"

"He single-handedly defeated AC Milan."

The commentator on Italian national sports channel shouted excitedly. Although he was not a Roma fan, he was an Inter Milan fan, and he was still very happy to see AC Milan in such a bad situation.

The Roma fans in the stands were ecstatic. Leading AC Milan by 3 goals at halftime, they were extremely satisfied with the result.

"Single is really impressive!"

"That's right, AC Milan has no way to win!" "We will win the championship, we have the odds."

"Single...he's so handsome!"

"..."

The fans in the stands were discussing it, though the male and female fans had slightly different points of focus.

Most importantly, Roma led AC Milan 3-0 at halftime, and they are very likely to achieve a double victory over AC Milan this season, which is a very satisfying result.

The AC Milan players don't seem to be feeling very good.

Goalkeeper Abbiati, in particular, had his goal breached three times in the first half, a situation that is rare to see even once in a season.

Abbiati is a veteran of AC Milan. He took over the number 1 jersey from Rossi in 99, and Abbiati played a crucial role in winning the Serie A title that season.

However, he was later taken away from his starting position at Milan by Dida, and he was constantly loaned out to Juventus, Torino, and Atletico Madrid. Since returning to Milan last season, he has once again become Milan's starting goalkeeper.

Now, Abbiati feels a deep sense of helplessness, even shame.

"No, I need to get serious!"

Abbiati kept reminding himself, "I can't let them score again. I have to be careful, especially when they kick the ball!"

Leonardo, standing on the sidelines, also felt a deep sense of helplessness.

AC Milan's season so far cannot be described as a failure. Despite a poor start, they have risen to third place in the standings through a strong finish, only 6 points behind Inter Milan.

However, AC Milan's performance against strong opponents this season has been terrible.

At home, they lost 0-4, and away, they won 2-0. In the Milan derby, they were almost humiliated by Inter Milan. In the match against Roma, they were defeated 1-3 at home in the first game, and now they are already three goals down at halftime.

Such a performance is certainly not going to satisfy Milan's management and fans.

Have they ever beaten Juventus?
Sorry, but look at Juventus' current ranking, they're tenth in the league. Beating them isn't anything special.

The first half was slowly coming to an end, but Ambrosini was still desperately defending against Shan Yongzhuo, even though the ball was at AC Milan's feet.

"The ball is at your feet..."

"Don't try to interfere with me!"

Ambrosini remained unmoved, leaving Shan Yongzhuo with no choice but to accept the situation.

The cooldown for Mighty Vajra Kick will definitely have to wait until the second half to be used. As for Whirlwind Ground Kick, AC Milan is defending me so tightly right now, so I can't use it easily unless there's a really good opportunity.

In other words, he was out of the running for goals in at least the first half.

So Shan Yongzhuo simply stood still. Even after Rome snatched the victory, he walked slowly, without any energy or spirit to run.

Since I can't catch the ball anyway, let's just leave it at that.

Shan Yongzhuo's negative attitude left Ambrosini feeling helpless.

What can be done?

He had already pushed himself to the limit. During this period, he had suffered not only physically but also mentally.

Fortunately, the referee finally blew the whistle to end the first half.

Both sides returned to their respective locker rooms.
