In order to ensure the tactical consistency of the first team and the entire youth training system, Ten Hag will often participate in tactical meetings hosted by Guardiola.

This Dutch coach, who will become the head coach of Ajax and Manchester United in the future, has the same beautiful hair style as Guardiola.

When the two of them appeared in the conference room together, the whole room seemed brighter.

"In the first half, when Milan seemed to have the advantage, Pan Yi specifically asked the players to control the ball more in the backcourt to lure the enemy deeper, and then scored the long pass goal." Ten Hag continued.

"In fact, Hamburg's midfield is now stronger than Milan, but they deliberately slow down the pace to seduce Milan players to press forward and create space for attack."

"But Allegri was not aware of this and continued to fall into the trap woven by Pan Yi."

Ten Hahe seemed a little annoyed when he spoke.

After all, he is just a youth team coach, but he can see the problems on the field. And Allegri is the head coach of a European giant, but he is so determined to play high-position pressing with Hamburg. He really doesn't know what he is doing.

, and I don’t know the other.

This gave Ten Hag a feeling of "I can do it myself". He really wanted to rush to Milan right now, drag Allegri off the coaching bench, roll up his sleeves and get in on his own.

"You're right." Guardiola nodded appreciatively.

He still admires Ten Hag as a youth team coach. When discussing tactics, the Dutchman can always find the key to the problem and put forward his own opinions.

Guardiola believes that it won't be long before Ten Hag can stand on his own and coach a first team independently.

"At the beginning, Hamburg did not play well. After all, their players were still too young and had not adapted to the atmosphere and rhythm of the Champions League." Guardiola said.

"But Pan Yi's command from the sidelines quickly stabilized the situation. He asked the players to move closer to the center and backcourt, and let Milan's full-backs come over."

"At the same time, Paulinho and Casemiro also formed a double defensive midfielder, sweeping at the front of the penalty area to protect the defense, so that the players on the back line can move with confidence."

"This also adds two more points for the ball in the backcourt. It is difficult for Milan's forward group to grab the ball, so the full-backs press higher, hoping to grab the ball and directly threaten the Hamburg goal."

"It's a pity that this was all calculated by Pan Yi. When Milan's formation pressed forward and there was space in the backcourt, Hamburg's central defender directly launched a long pass attack. These two goals were basically created in this way.

of."

"It can be said that without Pan Yi's on-the-spot adjustments, these two goals would not have been possible. In this regard, Allegri did lose a lot. When he was one goal behind, he still hadn't woken up and was still using his old

Trying to force the offense... is simply asking for trouble."

Ten Hahe also nodded and said: "This also shows that the Hamburg players have extremely high tactical literacy and high training level. Otherwise, even if Pan Yi commanded like a god, it would be difficult for them to understand the main idea immediately in just a few minutes."

The coach’s intention will be carried out without any compromise.”

Bayern's coaches also nodded in agreement.

The situation in the first half actually demonstrated the huge gap in tactical level between Hamburg and Milan.

Hamburg's players have very tight positions between two or three players, and each player holding the ball has multiple ball release points.

Once the player holding the ball (whether it is one's own or the opponent's) moves to one side, Hamburg's entire body will also move with it, maintaining the tightness of the formation, making it difficult for the opponent to find a breakthrough in the first place.

The same is true when Pan Yi moves Hamburg's line back. If the defenders retreat, the midfielder will also move back, including the front encounter line, which will not suddenly make the space in the center wider.

All the players in Hamburg are like every part of a precision instrument, closely interlocked with each other. I have you in me, and you have me in you. Each player can produce different effects and effects in different positions.

effect.

But Milan is different.

In order to implement Allegri's passing strategy, they spread the formation very wide, and at the same time the distance between the players was also widened.

Although it seems that this takes up more court space, there is also a large gap between Milan players.

Hamburg only needed to knock a nail between the opponent's players, and the Milan machine immediately jammed and was not running smoothly.

And without a dedicated crosser (such as Beckham in the past), Milan's style of play feels like Hanzo's archery.

I passed the ball, whether it can hit my teammates on the head, whether it can go in, it all depends on fate.

Not to mention that these teammates who are waiting to catch the ball are actually not that good at grabbing headers.

All of these are the reasons why Milan fell behind in the first half and played extremely ugly.

"Allegri is such a stubborn old man." Guardiola sighed in the end. "He still clings to his old ways and has not kept pace with the times at all."

"He doesn't know that since Pan Yi appeared, the tactical development of European football has changed a lot. Even I have learned a lot from Pan Yi."

"But he was lucky. When Pan Yi was in the team, he could still listen to a few words. As soon as Pan Yi left, he immediately returned to his old ways. The essence of Pan Yi's tactics was not learned at all."

"That's it for this game. Milan doesn't have any chance. Let's study the next round of the game against Schalke 04..."

…

In the second half, Hamburg entered the stadium with a two-goal advantage.

During the halftime break, Pan Yi praised the players' performance. After all, this is the first trip to the Champions League for many people. It can be said that it is very satisfying to score such a score at San Siro.

Then Pan Yi just asked the players to continue playing the same way they did in the first half without making any adjustments.

After all, Allegri is a bit over the top now. If he likes to pass, just let him pass it. Pan Yi can just stay the same and adapt to all changes.

Even if Allegri really enlightened and made some changes, Pan Yi would still have no time to respond to his changes.

After all, you have two balls in hand!

Sure enough, Pan Yi discovered shortly after the start of the second half that Milan still had the same recipe and the same taste.

Allegri did not make any adjustments to the lineup. Tactically, he just asked midfielder De Jong to withdraw a little further to protect the space on both sides of his side.

Milan's two full-backs were still actively pressing forward, cooperating with the midfielder and frontcourt to press Hamburg's players.

Obviously, Allegri still wants to use a fierce attack to quickly start the second half. If he can get one back, there is hope for turning defeat into victory.

But after experiencing the fighting in the first half, the Hamburg players had already become accustomed to this rhythm.

They took their time and competed with each other in the midfield.

Although the Milan players' fighting intensity has improved and they can indeed grab the ball at the feet of the Hamburg players, their offensive method is too simple.

After finally getting the ball, he quickly separated the sides, and then made a pass from the bottom, or from the sideline, or from the center line.

And Bashen, who is located in the center of the penalty area, is always surrounded by Hamburg players. It is difficult to get the ball comfortably, let alone any threatening shots.

The same is true for Niang and Mane on the two wings.

It is difficult for them to receive the ball from the wing from their teammates, so they can only go to the penalty area to participate in the top challenge, or recover it to the ribs to win the two penalty kicks.

But it is obvious that both the first and second points are basically controlled by the Hamburg players!

So Mane could only return to the midfield to get the ball, and then use his personal ability to break through.

Instead, he has become Milan's most threatening player in recent times. Pan Yi also asked Salah to recycle appropriately to keep an eye on his African good brother.

As time goes by, Milan's passing tactics become more and more difficult.

Later, even the ball release points of Milan's two full-backs were restricted by Hamburg.

Whether it is De Sciglio or Abate, when they get the ball, Paulinho or De Bruyne will immediately come forward to interfere, making it more difficult for them to take action.

This is because after a fierce attack for about 20 minutes, Milan's main players, who had played two games in three days, were a little overwhelmed.

Milan players whose physical fitness began to decline also had to slow down a bit.

But at this time, the burgers were speeding up.

This is the basic combat policy proposed by Pan Yi during the intermission: when the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy is stationed, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue!

Hamburg's players suddenly intensified their pressure on Milan's ball-handlers.

Not to mention their two full-backs, even if the Milan central defender and midfielder want to distribute the ball to the wing, the difficulty will suddenly increase.

Salah, Son Heung-min, and Mitrovic instantly seemed to be on stimulants, swooping towards Milan's backcourt, causing Milan's passing to become stumbling.

The game suddenly entered Hamburg's rhythm, and Hamburg's offensive began to become more and more fierce.

Gradually, Milan began to retreat, while Hamburg almost pushed the defense line past the center line!

Suddenly, danger began to appear in front of Milan's door.

"We have to make adjustments." Milan assistant coach Tassotti said to Allegri on the home team's bench, "If we still insist on the current style of play, it is better to remove a forward and replace him with a midfielder.

, change the formation to 442. This can not only stabilize the defense, but also have more choices at the passing point."

Allegri turned his head, glanced at his assistant, then turned back and continued to look into the stadium without replying.

I've been playing for so long and just changing the formation now, isn't it a slap in my face?

"Allegri..." Tassotti was a little excited.

But Allegri waved his hand, signaling Tassotti to stop talking.

"If we persist a little longer, their flaws will be exposed, and then we can score!" Allegri insisted.

However, he still agreed with one of the views Tassotti just said, that is, someone must be replaced!

He felt that there must be no problem with his tactics now, but why he did not achieve the desired results must be because there was something wrong with the person executing the tactics.

Therefore, the person who caused Milan’s current predicament must be solved first!

So he called his hand and called forward Matri over.

After he finishes warming up, Allegri can replace Matri and take Mane off!
Chapter completed!
