Chapter 67: The Two Swordsmen of the Netherlands (Seeking monthly tickets and follow-up reading)

The next day, photos of the entire Sampdoria team riding bicycles appeared in British newspapers.

The players were generally strong and sturdy, and it was quite impressive to see nearly twenty of them leaving the training base on bicycles.

Especially Mancini wearing big sunglasses, riding his old antique R75, and his tweed coat.

Poles might recall some bad memories when they see this.

A photo like this is the best publicity.

Even other teams couldn't help but sigh that Sampdoria players love to show off.

But it is a big deal for those motorcycle manufacturers.

Motorcycle gangs have always been bad people, such as the bosozoku in Japan and some biker gangs in Europe and America. In the 50s, Marlon Brando also played a role like this, telling the story of the confrontation between two motorcycle gangs.

Some people even use motorcycles as tools for robbery.

But Sampdoria is different.

These are all professional athletes, the top group of people in the world's number one sport. Hard work, passion, sportsmanship, and never give up, these words can all be used to describe these players.

This is the first time the motorcycle community has been associated with a positive image.

The public relations departments of almost all manufacturers are stepping up publicity.

They hope that mothers and wives can change the bad impression of motorcycles, which will help their sales.

Milanello.

As the only top club that has not faced Sampdoria this season, the Rossoneri players are under some pressure.

Although they laugh at the joke, they still know how strong teams like Inter Milan and Napoli are.

Coach Sacchi has been forcing them to train madly in recent days, just because he is afraid that they will not be able to escape unscathed from the away game.

They had watched the videos of Lu Deyang's games several times in the tactical room.

I have to say, this is a very tough opponent.

Paolo Maldini sat down with his plate and recalled the details of Lu Deyang's football playing while eating.

He is not in the same position as Lu Deyang on the left, but Lu Deyang's position is very flexible and cannot be regarded as a simple winger or wing midfielder.

What bothered him was that after watching several games, he always felt that Lu Deyang's playing style was confusing to him.

Even if you deliberately use fake moves to confuse your opponents, you will still subconsciously dribble and shoot in the way you are most familiar with at critical moments.

Regardless of whether Lu Deyang shot with both hands, even the shooting posture and center of gravity change gave him a headache.

Even though he scored with lob shots in both games, his way of exerting force changed.

"What are you thinking about, Paul?"

Baresi asked as he sat down.

"Our opponents." Maldini said directly without hiding anything.

"It's very difficult, isn't it? My brother called me several times and told me to be careful of that young man, but he couldn't tell me what I should pay attention to."

Franco Baresi said somewhat speechlessly.

As a top defender, he should have some experience in defending the opponent after two games.

"Yes, that's it." Maldini nodded.

He also discussed with his father how to deal with Lu Deyang. After watching the game video, Cesare patted him on the shoulder and told him to try his best. It was not his fault if he lost.

This was the first time he had seen his father like this.

"It's no big deal. We are the best." Rijkaard looked up and said, "I will definitely teach him a lesson when the game comes."

"Then you're miserable."

Van Basten said.

As a top shooter, he highly recognizes Lu Deyang's ability.

Except that we have never seen Lu Deyang holding the ball with his back to the goal, his other movements, dribbling, ball protection, passing, shooting and other aspects are all at top level.

The most important thing is that he didn't see that when Lu Deyang had to wait for his teammates with his back to the basket when he got the ball, he just handled it by himself when there was no one around him.

Rijkaard is very strong, but Matthäus is not a weakling either.

This mentality of teammates on the national team will be embarrassing during the game.

But the person involved didn't feel it.

Rijkaard said again: "He has been in the newspapers every day since he arrived in Serie A. I thought he was some royal aristocrat or a Hollywood star."

Seeing that no one spoke, he could only shut his mouth in disappointment.

12 month 9 day.

Luigi Ferraris Stadium.

This is not the first time Paolo Maldini has visited here.

But I have never felt such oppression.

Just as I was changing my equipment in the locker room, I could feel the passion of the fans in the stands.

Sampdoria also performed very well last year. They were unbeaten at home, finished second in the Cup Winners' Cup, and won the Italian Cup. This result is considered a successful season for a top club.

But Sampdoria fans at that time were definitely not as scary as they are now.

They are stronger now and Maldini has no doubt that Samp will win more trophies by the end of the season.

……

Home dressing room.

Boskov drew the lineups of the two teams on the tactical board.

Milan has many big names, but they are easier to guess.

Gullit is out for the season, but the other two Dutch players are unlikely to miss the game.

Even for a giant club like Milan, there is often a big gap between the main players and the substitutes. Sacchi will definitely send out the strongest lineup today.

"Show me the dead Dutchman!"

Boskov said.

"Which Dutchman, chief?" asked Dossena.

"Both of them are very strong, but Van Basten is more important. Don't give him the opportunity to hold the ball for a long time in front of the penalty area. When he receives the ball with his back to the goal, try to steal it as soon as possible. Of course, don't let him pass you by and let him enter the penalty area by accident."

Boskov stressed.

Virjoward licked the corner of his mouth.

The coach’s requirements are not low.

It is very easy for someone to pass you when you try to steal the ball from him with his back to you. This requires the help of teammates.

Carboni's defensive ability is a bit weak. He is a full-back type and can also play as a winger.

"Okay, I don't need to stress the rest."

"Pass it to Dejan?"

Lanner asked.

"It's passed to Dejan!!!" Boskov said dissatisfiedly: "Is there any doubt about this?"

"Pass it to Roberto!"

Mancini nudged Lu Deyang with his arm and said.

He has already felt the benefits brought by Lu Deyang's organization of the offense, as long as he can grab the point, everything will be OK.

This is very comfortable for him.

His ability to compete is not that strong, so he doesn't like to dribble into the penalty area. He prefers to cooperate with his teammates or pass the ball to Vialli from outside.

Although there is competition when trying to score, he just needs to find the right moment to shoot, and he is very good at this.

"There is a chance."

Lu Deyang said with a smile.

Mancini is pretty good.

The main reason is that there are too many top forwards in the same period and they are too strong, which makes him less famous.

It's because Vieri, Totti, Baggio and others are too abnormal, not because Mancini is weak. He is more like Cassano who has slightly less talent but has a higher degree of performance.

He was not selected for the national team several times because of his temper, otherwise his career would have been even more brilliant.

Lu Deyang chose to draw a lottery.

Let’s see who we will draw against Milan. If it’s a defender, he won’t be able to pass the ball to Mancini.

[Ding, because your good brother Virjoward doesn't like video games and advanced technology, a player who likes to play games will be selected to receive a Ricardo Izecson dos Santos Leite single-game experience card for the 2006-2007 Champions League semi-final, AC Milan vs. Manchester United]

Kaka? !
Still the King of Milan!
Kaka in the 0607- season was one of the most decisive players Lu Deyang had ever seen in the Champions League.

Kaka still has the ability to pass the ball, so Mancini won't be too happy for nothing.

Today is a good opportunity to try whether Kaka at his peak can break through AC Milan’s defense.

When players from both teams came out to warm up, Milan players kept looking at Sampdoria's half.

Sampdoria has appeared too frequently during this period, especially Lu Deyang.

"Those guys might want to do something cruel to you," Pari warned.

"Not that much."

Lu Deyang waved his hand and said.

This is the first time we meet, how could there be any deep hatred?
"Maybe Milan's big stars are jealous of you too," Vialli joked.

After all, not everyone can compare with Maradona in terms of talent. The key is that Lu Deyang is much cooler than Maradona.

Even though he is a rich second-generation, he couldn't help but envy Lu Deyang.

He's good at playing football, makes a lot of money, has the talent to draw, has a beautiful girlfriend, is tall and handsome, this guy has no fucking weaknesses.

Only after meeting Lu Deyang did he understand what it meant to be the one favored by God.

Mancini nodded in agreement.

Before, he thought he was handsome and a winner in life.

But people are really afraid of comparison.

Sampdoria fans were cheering in the stands and couldn't wait any longer.

As the players from both teams walked into the tunnel, they immediately became more excited.

"The game is about to start and we see that both coaches have no reservations."

"Yes, they both sent out their strongest lineups. Today is destined to be an exciting game. Let's take a look at the starting lineups of both teams first."

Sampdoria 442 double defensive midfielder and double forward:
Goalkeeper: Pagliuca

Defenders: Marco Lanner, Viljoward, Carboni, Mannini,

Midfielders: Lu Deyang, Parry, Dossena, Lombardo,

Forwards: Vialli, Mancini.

AC Milan 442 double defensive midfielder and double forward:
Goalkeeper: Andrei Pazari,
Defenders: Maldini, Baresi, Costacurta, Tassotti,

Midfielders: Alberigo Evani, Rijkaard, Roberto Donadoni, Ancelotti,
Forwards: Van Basten, Daniele Massaro.

"Both teams have big names. AC Milan's lineup is more luxurious, and their midfield is even the best lineup."

"Yes, Dejan's teammates are a little weaker, but in addition to Lombardo, Parry and Dossena are also Italian internationals. But it's really surprising that Ancelotti started today. I heard that he was injured."

"It looks like he has recovered from his injury, but Gullit still didn't make the squad, so it seems like his season-ending injury is not a rumor."

Some of the players started chatting in the tunnel.

Sampdoria also has several Italian internationals in its squad.

Lu Deyang noticed that Maldini was always looking at him, so he turned around and smiled.

After being caught peeking at others, Maldini quickly said with a smile: "My name is Paolo Maldini. I like your playing style. I have thought about naming my son Diego. Maybe Dejan is also good."

Lu Deyang: ...
