On December 11, in the 14th round of Serie A, Milan played away against Bologna.

Bologna's lineup, which is stuck in the relegation vortex, is a defensive 451.

Forward: Di Vayo

Midfielder: Mudingai, Diamanti, Cone, Casalini, Gaston Ramirez

Defenders: Portanova, Raggi, Jose Crespo, Morleo

Goalkeeper: Gillet

AC Milan still has a 433 attack formation:

Forwards: Mane, Inzaghi, Aubameyang.

Midfielder: Van Bommel, Boateng, Gattuso.

Defenders: De Sciglio, Thiago Silva, Van Dijk, Abate.

Goalkeeper: Abbiati.

Regarding the transfer of Brazilian goalkeeper Ederson, Galliani has been left to worry about it.

If it were a business worth tens of millions, Galliani would definitely frown if he spent a penny in half.

But when I heard that it was Pan Yi who suggested buying another little monster worth less than one million euros, Galliani quickly rushed over on his bicycle.

And it is said that both the opposing team and the players already have intentions, but there is still some time before the winter window opens on January 1, so there is no rush.

And even if Ederson comes, he is unlikely to be able to play the main role immediately, and it will still take some time to adapt.

Therefore, the main goalkeeper will still be Abbiati for some time to come.

The new tactic for playing Pan Yi during this period requires the two fullbacks to be positioned slightly further back, sacrificing some attack power to ensure smooth conduction in the backcourt.



After the game started, Bologna put on a defensive counterattack posture.

This is obviously based on studying Milan's previous games.

After losing several generals in the midfield and frontcourt, Milan did not take advantage against lower-tier teams such as Chievo and Genoa. Of course, Bologna also wants to follow the same example and strive to score points against Milan.

But soon, they discovered that Milan's playing style today was a little different.

When Bologna had the ball in the backcourt, Milan began to block their wings, forcing Bologna to pass the ball to the center and then wait for an opportunity to steal the ball.

When Milan started to take possession of the ball, the ball often moved around in Milan's backcourt and was not in a hurry to attack.

When Bologna's overall formation is seduced to move forward, Milan will often speed up suddenly and kick the ball into the frontcourt, allowing three fast forwards to make a surprise attack.

This leaves Bologna a bit at a loss.

The game quickly entered AC Milan's rhythm.

In the 3rd minute, Bologna got an offensive opportunity. Diwayo advanced and was intercepted by Van Dijk.

After taking the ball, Van Dijk directly made a long pass to Inzaghi who was wandering near the center line. Inzaghi dribbled the ball forward and was brought down by Diamanti. Milan received a well-positioned free kick.

Milan played a tactical coordination, but unfortunately Aubameyang's long shot cut in from the right was too high.

But in this attack, Milan's tactical characteristics of this game have been reflected, and Inzaghi's advantages and tactical effects have also been fully utilized.

In the 12th minute, Milan's tactics came to fruition and they scored.

Van Bommel stole the ball in the middle and actively followed up after passing the ball to Mane on the left.

Mane took the ball two steps and then immediately passed it across to Van Bommel, who was already at the front of the penalty area.

At this time, Van Bommel was unmarked and scored with a long-range shot. Milan 1:0 Bologna.

And why was he unguarded?

It was precisely because of the blitz at the beginning that Bologna was wary of Inzaghi's speed and anti-offside, causing the defense to dare not move too far forward.

In this case, the distance between Bologna's three lines will increase, and there will be a larger space between the back line and the midfield line.

Van Bommel also seized this space and had an excellent shooting opportunity.

Seeing this goal, Allegri glanced at Pan Yi after celebrating and expressed his praise.

Of course he could see that this was the effect of Pan Yi's tactics.

Especially when Inzaghi is placed in a suitable tactical system, the strategic role of this forward with ghostly movement is greatly maximized - his presence forces opponents to not dare to use high defense lines.

Therefore, sometimes it seems that Inzaghi has nothing to do, or has nothing to do with him in this goal, but in fact it has played a role.

This is the truth that those who are good at fighting have no great achievements.

However, under the tactical dominance of Milan, Bologna did not dare to press forward even though it was one goal behind. Therefore, the pace of the game was also slow, and both sides had fewer shooting opportunities.

In the 17th minute, Gattuso hit the anti-aircraft gun with a long shot from the middle.

In the 28th minute, Bologna's backcourt clearance was not far away. Aubameyang's shot from the right was blocked, and then Boateng's supplementary shot was also saved by the goalkeeper.

In the 37th minute, Bologna got a rare opportunity. A free kick from the left went to the penalty area and was cleared. At the second point, Di Vayo's long shot from the top of the arc was high.

In the 41st minute, Milan scored another victory! Inzaghi successfully countered offside in the middle, passed the goalkeeper and pushed the goal, Milan 2:0 Bologna.

After Milan scored again, the emotions of the Bologna players were obviously affected to a certain extent.

In the 42nd minute, Portanova knocked down Mane in the backcourt and was given a yellow card.

Later, Raj brought down Inzaghi and was also given a yellow card.

In the 45th minute, De Sciglio made a pass from the left, and Mane hit the goal from a small angle but was confiscated by the goalkeeper.

At halftime, Milan 2:0 Bologna.

This time, Pan Yi learned a lesson and must not cause unnecessary attrition like when he played against Fiorentina.

He suggested that Allegri slow down the pace of the game.

With a two-goal lead, you can safely counterattack your opponents without having to fight them hand-to-hand.

And based on the deployment in the first half, the Bologna coaching staff will definitely respond proactively in the second half.

It is better to take the initiative to seek changes now, otherwise it will catch the opponent off guard.

Allegri adopted Pan Yi's opinion.

Now in his eyes, Pan Yi is simply a smart star, and there is nothing he can't predict on and off the court.

Therefore, Allegri will tend to accept all suggestions as long as they are not too outrageous - by the way, Pan Yi has never made any outrageous suggestions.

In the second half, the team changed sides and fought again.

The adjustments in the midfield were indeed very effective.

The rhythm became slower, and Milan did not compete fiercely with Bologna players, which also greatly reduced the chance of cards and injuries.

And a slap can't make a difference. Under such circumstances, Bologna players are not butchers per capita after all, so naturally they can't stir up too much trouble.

Instead, Milan threatened Bologna's goal through counterattacks again and again.

In the 53rd minute, Van Bommel passed through the midfielder. Inzaghi got the ball and shot the goal, but it was ruled invalid for offside.

In the 66th minute, Mane broke through from the left and passed the inverted triangle back to the back point. Aubameyang headed the ball high.

In the 78th minute, Portanova defensively tackled Inzaghi and was sent off for a foul.

Since then, Bologna has obviously lost its ability to fight.

Milan has also begun to make substitutions to maintain the team's vitality.

In the end, AC Milan won Bologna 2:0 in an away game without any blood, ending their four-game winless streak in all competitions.

After the game, the commentator of Milan Sports Station also sighed:

"Finally, our Milan is back!"
