The result in the first half was 0-1. AC Milan relied on Pirlo's goal and led Real Madrid away.

AC Milan players feel relaxed.

When the midfielder returned to the locker room, they were talking about the game easily, but they were still a little nervous in the second half because the opponent's most threatening player was sitting on the bench.

"You guys say, will Zhen Shaolong appear?"

“Definitely.”

"They have no reason not to send Zhen Shaolong!"

"I hope not, that guy can't defend himself at all. But what can we do?"

“…”

The door of the locker room was pushed open and Leonardo walked in. He smiled relaxedly and gave a thumbs up into the room, "We did a good job! Lead, it was a great half!"

Leonardo approached the tactical board, picked up the commonly used signature pen, leaned against the wall on one side, held it down with his fingers, and looked up at all the players, "I know what you are worried about, Zhen Shaolong, right? Not only are you worried, I am also worried. That's such an unreasonable guy!"

"Ha ha……"

Leonardo's description is very interesting, and many people laughed out loud, which made the atmosphere easier.

Leonardo continued, "But no matter what, we must face it. Don't be lucky. As long as we lead, he will definitely appear, so we still have to face it."

Next, Leonardo began to arrange defensive strategies. His arrangement was mainly aimed at how to play after Zhen Shaolong was replaced when he was replaced. The strategy he thought of was to greatly strengthen the defense, block the entire penalty area, and arrange dense defense near the penalty area. No matter how high the opponent's level is, it is difficult to score a goal, so they can calmly play defensive counterattack.

Whether the game is exciting is no longer considered.

On the other side.

Pellegrini was still struggling with whether to let Zhen Shaolong appear. He had completed the tactical arrangements for the second half. He did not mention Zhen Shaolong in the middle, but found that many players were reluctant to speak.

For example, Raul.

Raul looked over with a look of "why" and was obviously asking "why don't you change to Zhen Shaolong."

Pellegrini couldn't help but admire Raul. It was probably Raul who was replaced by Zhen Shaolong, but Raul wanted to ask Zhen Shaolong's appearance. No wonder everyone in the team is convinced of Raul. He is a player who truly considers Real Madrid's results.

But Pellegrini has to consider more.

The biggest problem for Real Madrid now is "Zhen Shaolong's dependence disease". With Zhen Shaolong, others will obviously become very confident and their performance will become very good.

On the contrary, it is very ordinary.

Pellegrini hopes to use the game to weaken the impact of Zhen Shaolong on the entire team's performance. Similar influences will not be beneficial to the team at all, and will not be beneficial to Zhen Shaolong himself. He is already the most peak star in the world and does not need to rely on the influence of Real Madrid to increase his personal influence in the world.

To achieve the goal of weakening the impact, Real Madrid must be allowed to play without Zhen Shaolong, so that the players can adapt to normal games, rather than relying on a strong teammate in the game.

Pellegrini thought it very clearly, but he found a big problem: in the process of adapting to the whole team, his performance may be affected.

For example, now.

AC Milan is already ahead of Real Madrid. If Zhen Shaolong is delayed from sending him to play, who will bear the responsibility for losing?

There is no doubt.

He, Pellegrini, is the first person in charge of losing. The media and fans took the lead in considering that he let Zhen Shaolong sit on the bench instead of sending Zhen Shaolong to participate.

In recent times, Real Madrid has been in a low period after the outbreak. The King's Cup was eliminated. The league's process was difficult to play against Atletico Madrid. The Champions League home match against AC Milan, and was behind the opponent in half.

What happens if the game loses?

Perhaps there will be calls from the outside world that ‘Pellegrini is dismissed’!

Pellegrini took a deep breath, he kept thinking and measuring, and had not made a decision at the beginning of the second half.

Real Madrid can only play in the original team.

When AC Milan found out that Real Madrid did not make a substitution immediately, they breathed a sigh of relief. Their players on the court became more energetic, and their performance on the court was better.

On the other hand, Real Madrid is completely the opposite.

Most players looked at the bench frequently, and they had a puzzled heart, "Why not let Zhen Shaolong appear?"

This is the problem.

Some Real Madrid players were even distracted on the court, and their backcourt defense was affected and made mistakes. Fortunately, AC Milan failed to seize the opportunity. The magical Pato and the core Ronaldinho failed to jump over Casillas's ten fingers with two shots.

"call……"

After AC Milan once again threatened Real Madrid's goal, the fans in the stands around breathed a sigh of relief, and then they were very dissatisfied.

Fans are dissatisfied with the situation.

With AC Milan leading the way, the shots are not Real Madrid, but still the opponent AC Milan. If the game continues, does Real Madrid still have hope of winning?

Real Madrid fans and their hopes the situation will improve. They immediately thought of Zhen Shaolong. The shouts of Zhen Shaolong's name in the stands have increased significantly.

"Zhen Shaolong!"

"We need Zhen Shaolong!"

"Let Zhen Shaolong appear!"

The fans' shouts gradually increased, as if the entire stadium was cheering for Zhen Shaolong. The games on the court were irrelevant. Some players were affected and looked at the stands around frequently.

Real Madrid's bench has also become a key focus.

The live game was constantly switched to Real Madrid bench, and the Spanish commentator said in confusion, "Why not replace Zhen Shaolong? I don't know what Pellegrini is thinking..."

"Maybe there are other reasons, maybe Zhen Shaolong was injured? Or is it because his physical condition is not allowed?"

"But he has already made it to the big list..."

So many fans shouted, coupled with the backward score, Pellegrini was under tremendous pressure. The Chileans didn't even dare to look at the fans' stands, but just stared at the game intently, and the two voices kept talking in their minds.

"Send Zhen Shaolong! Winning the game is important."

"No team can rely too much on a player, it will have a great impact in the future."

"The current competition is important!"

"But we also need to consider it later. What if Zhen Shaolong is injured? Or next season..."

"There is no next season! If you lose the game, the team will not be able to achieve good results, and maybe there will be no more this season!"

"but……"

"No, but!"

right!

No but!

When AC Milan attacked again and Pirlo's wonderful pass almost sent the ball to the penalty area, Pellegrini finally made up his decision. He gritted his teeth and stood up, waved his hand behind him, "Substitution!"

"No, but! Substitution!"

"It's only important now! Zhen, go warm up and prepare to appear!"

“Hula…”

With Pellegrini's actions, not only Zhen Shaolong reacted, but also the fans around him responded. They cheered excitedly, as if they were supporting Pellegrini, but anyone knows that they are looking forward to Zhen Shaolong's appearance.

Pellegrini breathed a long sigh. How to think about it in the future? It’s better to get through the game now.

No matter what, grades are the most important.

Zhen Shaolong's appearance has a great impact.

AC Milan immediately adjusted his playing style and turned offense to defense. Leonardo explained clearly that he wanted to shrink the defense line and use dense defense to stabilize the goal, not leave any chance for Zhen Shaolong and Real Madrid, and rely on defense to achieve the final victory.

on the other hand.

Real Madrid seemed to have been injected with a heart-warming agent, and the field became energetic, and every player became much more active.

It is obvious overall that Real Madrid quickly turned defense to offense.

The perspectives of watching the billiards fans and TV viewers around can be seen more clearly. After Zhen Shaolong stepped onto the field, AC Milan retreated as a whole, and Real Madrid moved forward as a whole, and the game situation had a radical change. If the game was compared to war, it would be like Real Madrid had a large number of reinforcements coming in at the critical moment. AC Milan, which was originally in the dominant side, immediately "defeated" to retreat.

The major changes in the situation on the field made Real Madrid fans even more excited, "Did you see it? As soon as Zhen Shaolong appeared, AC Milan surrendered!"

"This is the deterrent!"

"strength!"

"Ac Milan is afraid of Zhen Shaolong! They dare not attack at all! Next, we will enter Real Madrid time!"

The surrounding stands made even louder support for Zhen Shaolong.

When Zhen Shaolong walked into the arena, he had a calm smile on his face. He looked around and looked at the fans of the pool, and was still a little confused. He found that in recent times, the fans' support for him has become even more crazier.

Why?

Pellegrini has been struggling for a long time, and other Real Madrid teammates are also looking forward to his appearance, but Zhen Shaolong doesn't quite understand what's going on. It's normal for him not to appear occasionally in a few games.

When playing for Newcastle United, the head coach would not occasionally let him stay on the bench, or even not on the roster. Whether he plays or not has nothing to do with injuries, mainly considering physical fitness and energy. The former has a greater impact, while the latter has a greater impact.

Few players can persist in playing every game, not only a matter of physical fitness, but also a matter of energy. Long-term and continuous game is very energy-consuming, which will make the players feel mentally exhausted and will directly affect the game state.

This requires rest and adjustment.

Before, Zhen Shaolong played all the games many times, especially in La Liga. Most of his games were played all the games. In addition to the first three Champions League games, his playing time was ranked among the top five in the team. The only ones who were Casillas, Ramos, C-Ronaldo and Metzelder were Casillas, Ramos, C-Ronaldo and Metzelder. Three of them were defenders, one was the main goalkeeper, and C-Ronaldo had less than a few minutes more than him.
