Alessandro Matri, known as Ma Dayan among the people in the world.
He is quite handsome with long flowing hair and big eyes, hence his name.
But unfortunately, this is his greatest advantage.
As a traditional Italian forward, Matri's highlight moments in his long Serie A career were only one to two years - that is, the first two years.
He is actually a product of Milan's youth training. He entered the AC Milan Football Club's youth training camp when he was 12 years old and stayed there until he was 20 years old.
During this period, he only made one appearance for Milan's first team, and was rented out everywhere until he was sold to Cagliari.
It was here that he performed well, and was eventually bought by Juventus. He was taken over by Allegri this season, and he was considered a wanderer returning home.
But he began to decline again, scoring only one goal in 15 appearances in Milan...
All in all, this is a pretty average player.
And just such a player is about to go on the field now to replace Mane, who currently poses the greatest threat to Hamburg in Milan's formation.
But Allegri has his own reasons.
"This Mane asked him to fight for the top in the penalty area, but then retreated to the midfield to get the ball and break through. He has no tactical discipline at all!"
"It is because of his presence that my passing tactics are not reflected and have no effect!"
"This kind of Pan Yi's old favorite general really has different intentions. He must be taken down now, otherwise who else in Milan will listen to me in the future?"
"My Matri is better. He is obedient and strong enough to head the ball. Come up and help me score a goal!"
So, Allegri waved the flag, Mane came down, Matri came up.
As a result, Hamburg's pressure on the ribs was relieved a lot, and Salah was liberated to devote more to the offense.
This operation puzzled many media reporters and fans in the stands. Even Pan Yi, who was on the visiting team's bench, couldn't help but cast admiring glances at Allegri and moved his lips as if he was singing: "Ah, listen to me, thank you, because you warm the four seasons..."
Pan Yi's mouth was certainly not singing at this time.
He was nibbling on his snack again.
Now that Allegri has broken his arm, Hamburg's offense no longer has any worries. Pan Yi no longer has to run to the command area to direct the game, and can sit in his seat and eat with peace of mind.
The effect of Allegri's substitution was immediate.
After Abate picked up the ball from the wing, he directly launched a 45-degree high ball to find Matri who had just come on. However, Van Dijk was still snatched in front of him and headed it over, falling to the feet of De Bruyne in front.
De Bruyne looked up and observed that Milan players were returning to defense.
But perhaps due to the decline in physical fitness, their return to defense was not fast.
And he also saw that Salah had begun to advance.
Now that he has no defensive tasks, he starts very quickly and is very determined!
So De Bruyne did not let the ball stay at his feet for too long, but used a volley-like method to swipe the ball towards Salah.
The trajectory of the ball happened to bypass De Sciglio on the wing and went straight to the path of Salah.
When the two lines of Salah and the ball finally came together, Salah had already rushed into Milan's penalty area with the ball, forming a one-man goal!
In this area where he is best at, Salah turned sideways and made a wonderful arc with his left foot. The ball just bypassed the fingertips of Milan goalkeeper Ederson who made a sideways save and penetrated into the net. .
0:3! !
"The ball goes in again!"
"It's Salah again! In today's game against his old club, the Egyptian star went on a killing spree!"
"Although he still chose not to celebrate, this goal obviously cut into the hearts of Milan fans again."
"It hurts, it really hurts! Allegri's team was completely beaten by Hamburg today."
“This is definitely something that no one thought of before the game started!”
"What's even more unacceptable to Milan fans is that the person who brought this tragic defeat to Milan was none other than their most beloved Pan Yi!"
"Now we see that some Milan fans have begun to leave early..."
In the live footage, many stands in the San Siro Stadium began to experience commotion.
Many fans wearing red and black jerseys or red and black scarves stood up from their seats, hung their heads, and walked out of the stadium in advance.
At this time, there are actually more than twenty minutes before the end of the game.
But they were desperate.
In fact, it's not just because of the 0:3 score.
It was the disorganized tactics and non-threatening offense of the Milan players on the field that made them feel desperate.
Even Hamburg's three goals seemed to be printed from the same mold, but Milan did not react at all. (Although the second goal was scored with a free kick, the process of creating a free kick is the same as the two goals.)
So the fans are using this method of leaving early to express their anger and dissatisfaction to the players on the court, to the coaches on the sidelines, and to the club executives in the chairman's stand!
The fans who stayed in the field to continue watching the game were not idle either.
They began to sing their own songs:
"Walk on, walk on, Allegri you hurry up and leave"
"You''ll never work again~" (You will never have a job...)
Then the director wisely cut the camera to the faces of Allegri and Galliani in the stands.
They all had livid faces.
Galliani was even more angry.
He never imagined that the team would lose so embarrassingly at home, in its first Champions League home court.
When was the last time San Siro fans left early? Galliani can't even remember it.
This responsibility obviously falls to Allegri.
And judging from the reaction of the fans, almost all Milan people have no confidence in Allegri and no good impression.
It was at this moment that Galliani began to think about firing Allegri...
The camera returns to the field.
Pan Yi has begun to make continuous substitutions.
This is not because he is going to make any adjustments to the tactics on the field, but to let the players rest!
He still has to prepare for the Bundesliga match three days later.
As a result, De Bruyne, Salah and Carvajal, who had started in the last two games, all came off the field.
When Salah came off the field, the entire San Siro Stadium burst into bursts of applause, dedicated to this kid who used to be in Milan.
The applause lasted for a long time.
To Allegri's ears, this applause sounded like the entire audience was slapping him in the face...
He also returned to the bench.
He has given up.
He also knew that he would definitely lose this game.
But the Milan players on the field are still running.
Although they are now behind by a big score, they are professional players and Milan players!
So as long as the game is still going on for one minute, they must stay on the court and fight to the end!
However, the actions of the head coach on the sidelines have really hurt their hearts.
The ministers are about to fight to the death, why does Your Majesty surrender first?
This blow brought them close to the limit of collapse both mentally and physically, and also made them all wilted on the field like eggplants beaten by frost.
And Hamburg is obviously ready to withdraw its troops.
Pan Yi understands human accidents, and he doesn't want to embarrass his old club too much in front of so many Milan fans.
Substitutions are a start. Hamburg also passes and cuts more in the backcourt and will not rush to advance the ball into the offensive third.
Then the game became ugly.
The stadium was filled with boos.
It was estimated that one-third of the stands were empty, and the remaining two-thirds were booing at this moment.
This boo is not for Hamburg, but for the home team AC Milan and Allegri!
The sound of cheering is gone.
Anyone can feel the loss from the Milan fans at the scene.
Of course, not to mention the fans, even the group of reporters from all over the world in the media area were all disappointed.
They originally expected to see a pin-point duel against Maimang, but they didn't expect it to be a one-sided massacre in Hamburg.
If Pan Yi hadn't stopped in time, the current score gap might have been even more exaggerated.
"I am so disappointed in this game. Milan disarmed so quickly!"
"Milan is worse than I thought! It simply doesn't look like a team of the same level."
"I really didn't expect it. I originally thought that even if Hamburg could win, it wouldn't be so easy..."
The reporters were chatting away.
Indeed, even the host of German TV station who was more optimistic about Hamburg before the game would not have thought that Hamburg's victory would come so easily.
The Italian media, especially the local media in Milan, are reflecting on this.
When Pan Yi was still an assistant coach in Milan, he helped the team win the Triple Crown and then left Hamburg.
At that time, many media believed that the main factors in the team were the head coach and players. Without Pan Yi, Milan would still be the same powerful Milan.
But within just one year, they were slapped in the face.
Milan lost all four majors in the following season, but Pan Yi led Hamburg to create the best record in recent years, enter the Champions League in one fell swoop, and also win the German Super Cup.
Then some people say that this is because the Bundesliga is not as competitive as Serie A. Success in the Bundesliga does not mean anything. It still depends on the performance in the Champions League.
So before tonight's direct confrontation between the two sides, everyone in Milan, including the media and fans, were very optimistic.
They all felt that despite Pan Yi leading the team, Milan could still easily win over their opponents.
But now?
It’s already 0:3!
Pan Yi is not leading the team to play football. He is teaching the Milan people a solid lesson!
This is a vivid demonstration course of advanced techniques and tactics!
It's a pity that "students" like Allegri probably didn't study well...otherwise, they wouldn't be where they are today.
…
When the referee finally blew the final whistle, the San Siro Stadium burst into applause again.
It was very sparse at first, but gradually, more and more fans stood up and applauded, and the applause became louder and more enthusiastic.
More and more fans stood up in the stands, and finally all the remaining 50,000 to 60,000 fans stood up.
The entire stadium burst into overwhelming applause.
People who didn't know thought AC Milan won.
But in fact, on the big screen above the stands, there are the words AC Milan 0:3 Hamburg.
In such a defeat at home, Milan fans gave their applause to Hamburg, who performed better, to Pan Yi, who strategized in the game, and to the old Milan players who performed brilliantly in the game.
But in the ears of Milan's coaches and players, such applause was very harsh.
What a disgrace!
It’s not just the players who are struggling, the management and coaching staff are also struggling.
Allegri and his team must take responsibility for this shameful game!
This is the extra meaning brought by the applause at San Siro!
Tens of thousands of fans at the scene expressed their feelings with applause, and countless Milan fans watched this frustrating game in front of the TV.
They vented their anger online:
"Allegri is dismissed! I don't want to see that embarrassing face on the court again!"
"You only know how to lob and cross, why not play a 505 big circle tactic? You useless coach, get out of class quickly!"
"The Football Association is disbanded! I'm sorry I walked into the wrong set."
"I want to thank Pan Yi for bringing burgers and completely waking up Milan. We are really no longer a strong team!"
"I haven't been this sad for a long time. I lost my arms and couldn't help crying at home after watching the game!"
"Me too. I just opened the window and roared, why am I a mute! If I were not mute, I could scold Allegri for a week!"
"That's enough for the two of you upstairs. I'm already numb anyway. I just had an amputation, and I was jumping up and cheering for Salah's goal just now!"
"..."
In the current TV broadcast, Pan Yi is already leading all the players and coaches to say farewell to the Hamburg fans who came from afar.
Pan Yi, who was a fan in his previous life, knows how difficult it is for fans, and he also knows that these die-hard fans who follow the team all the time are an important asset to the club.
Therefore, every away game, regardless of victory or defeat, Pan Yi will remind the players to express gratitude to their fans.
Of course, during this process, Milan fans from other stands of the San Siro Stadium continued to applaud Pan Yi.
In fact, Pan Yi's mood is also strange now.
It was clear that he had won such an important Champions League game, but Pan Yi couldn't express any more joy.
Today, as the head coach of the visiting team, he led the team to stab his old boss, whom he had been emotionally invested in, three times, and then received support and love from the fans of the home team. Pan Yi's heart was full of mixed emotions.
The same goes for the handshake with Allegri after the game.
Unlike before the game, there was nothing more to talk between them this time. After all, Allegri must be in a bad mood now, and his expression when facing Pan Yi was also slightly awkward.
And when the thanksgiving was over, when Pan Yi was about to return to the player tunnel and go to the locker room, he received applause and cheers as expected, and he also waved to them.
Then, he heard a voice that seemed very familiar: "Pan Yi! Pan Yi! Look here!"
When Pan Yi looked up, he really found a familiar figure: Valentina!
Okay, that makes sense.
Milan is playing at home, and as the daughter of the head coach, it is indeed normal to watch the game in the first row.
Pan Yi was a little hesitant to go over and have a chat.
Is Allegri still watching from behind?
I just gave my old father a beating, and now I'm trying to seduce someone else's daughter. Isn't it a little too much?
But Valentina shouted even more urgently: "Hurry up! Why don't you come over? I have something important to tell you!"
"Oh." Pan Yi could only respond and walked under the stands.
Valentina bent down, not caring that Pan Yi might see something on her chest.
And Pan Yi could only focus on Valentina's mouth and listen to what she had to say.
"In one week, it will be my birthday!" Valentina said.
"oh?"
Valentina's birthday... today is September 18th, and in a week it will be around September 24th or 25th.
"Happy birthday." Pan Yi didn't know what was going on, but he still congratulated her.
"No sincerity at all..." Valentina pouted, "You have to come to Milan to celebrate my birthday!"
"Ah..." Pan Yi scratched his head, "But at that time I should be preparing for the second round of the German Cup... I am very busy, how can I have time to come to Milan!"
His mind is now filled with the team's schedule, training plans, etc., and he really can't fit anything more into it.
"Are you not free? It doesn't matter. Otherwise, I can go to Hamburg!" Valentina smiled again.
"Don't go to such trouble, why don't I prepare a gift for you in advance today..." Pan Yi suddenly thought of something and said, "I heard from your dad that you are going to go to college in Hamburg? Isn't it for me?"
"What do you think?" Valentina snorted.
"That's not necessary!" Pan Yi said helplessly, "Besides, how do you know that I will always stay in Hamburg?"
"Uh... I really didn't think about this. Let's talk about it then," Valentina suddenly glared again, "Why did you take the topic away again? Let's talk about spending my birthday with me!"
"Um...why do you have to have me spend time with you?"
"Hmph! Didn't you always think I was too young before?" Valentina chuckled, "And after this birthday, I will be eighteen years old! In other words... I have achieved what you need as an adult girlfriend. It’s the standard!”
Pan Yi's eyes widened.
He had forgotten that such a thing existed!
He was just talking casually at the time.
Putting aside the question of whether 18 is considered an adult in places like Italy, or whether they don't care whether they are adults or not, how small is Valentina's figure?
It's simply too big!
But what to do now? Looking at Valentina's lustful eyes, I feel that if I really spend her birthday with her, I might be punished that night!
It doesn't matter if she does it, it means sacrificing a little something.
But the problem is that today he beat her dad so embarrassingly, maybe her dad will be dismissed from get out of class and will lose his job soon!
If she tries to deal with her daughter at this time, will she end up being punished by an angry Ah Jiong?
After all, judging from Allegri's formation today, Ah Jong really feels a little bit crazy, and there is no reason to argue with a lunatic!
This risk cannot be taken.
So, Pan Yi calmed down and said to Valentina: "Your birthday must be celebrated. But we still need to study how to celebrate it specifically. After all, how to celebrate it, It depends on how it ends up being passed, and how it ends up turning into a good birthday..."
While Valentina was listening in confusion, Pan Yi began to move towards the players' tunnel, then jumped to a corner where Valentina couldn't see, and finally roared:
"Happy birthday to you!"
Then he ran to the visiting team's locker room!
Let’s escape this disaster first!
Boys should protect themselves when they are outside.
…
The next day, the entire European football world was in a state of excitement because of the result of this game.
Even the boldest forecaster could not have expected that AC Milan, one of the top clubs with eight Champions League titles, would lose 0:3 to Hamburg at home at San Siro.
This is simply jaw-dropping.
"Gazzetta dello Sport" believes that this is AC Milan's night of shame, even more uncomfortable than the original Istanbul night.
They also criticized Allegri's poor performance on this night.
"Allegri needs to reflect on his tactical design and on-the-spot command. In front of Milan under his command, Pan Yi's Hamburg is like a team from outside the galaxy. They have caused a dimensionality reduction blow to Milan."
"This is a humiliating defeat. This game is not on the same level at all. This is unacceptable for AC Milan, which has a glorious history."
They also pointed out that Allegri also needs to reflect on his team strategy.
"Salah, Van Dijk and others who Pan Yi strongly promoted during his time in Milan and served as the main players in the Triple Crown season did not get a chance to play last season, and they immediately came to life as soon as they returned to Pan Yi's account. , this has to cause us to think deeply.”
"The disparity in performance in this game also shows that there are many players in the Milan team who are not qualified to play for Milan, but they have been favored by Allegri."
"Don't use Milan's recent economic difficulties as an excuse. After all, they don't reuse Salah and others. Allegri has been doing this since last season!"
Of course, it’s not just Gazzetta dello Sport, and it’s not just Italian newspapers.
Germany, Spain, France, the United Kingdom...all mainstream sports media believe that Pan Yi and his Hamburg played an advanced and advanced tactic, completely turning Milan into a weak team.
Only the Sun's report was fresh and refined, which can be described as a mudslide in the journalism world.
They believed that this was a complete match-fixing!
From Pan Yi's cordial conversation with Allegri and his daughter Valentina after the game, we can guess that the head coaches of these two teams must have made some dirty deals in private.
And this transaction is probably related to Valentina who was watching the game.
"Why was Milan beaten by Hamburg? Why did Allegri continue to make mysterious moves? Is this a loss of humanity or a loss of morality? This newspaper will continue to pay attention to the progress of this incident..."
