Pirlo received a pass from Ambrosini. He faced Donati head-on and made a fake move to pull the ball to break through. Donati rushed out. Then Pirlo calmly divided the ball to the right road, and Gattuso inserted it from the back row...

Seeing Gattuso get the ball, Nailer came up to defend. The breakthrough was not what Gattuso is good at, so when he saw Kaka retreating and asked for the ball, he immediately passed the ball. Nailer quickly followed Kaka.

Kaka did not break through Nailer, but instead passed the ball back after attracting Nailer to the bottom line.

The one who got the ball was Zhang Yang!! He was entangled by McMarus in the penalty area and had no chance. He simply retreated and could not only attack the penalty area again, but also make room for his teammates.

"Be careful of that Chinese!" the Glasgow narrator exaggeratedly.

Zhang Yang did not stop the ball, nor did he dribble the ball, but instead made a cross directly against Kaka's passing!

The football drew an accurate arc in the air and flew towards the penalty area.

Then people saw a bald header. Ronaldo, who was not good at heading, was fighting for the header. He actually squeezed out Caldeville, who was defending him, and grabbed the landing point. He headed the ball with a beautiful 'Lion header'.

"Ronaldo. He headed the ball!!!...wooow!"

This was a very beautiful head-shaking attack. I'm afraid Ronaldo himself didn't expect that he could hit such a beautiful header, which was almost a must-scoring goal. However, it seemed that God was unwilling to Ronaldo's comeback battle to be too perfect. Celtic goalkeeper Boruc made an incredible save, and he held Ronaldo's header with one hand!

"What a pity! If this ball is in..." The commentator jumped regretfully.

Ronaldo covered his face in depression, then he moved his palm away and looked at Boruc up from the top in disbelief. When he headed the ball, Ronaldo was delighted. He really thought the ball would definitely make the ball.

Then, he gave Zhang Yang a thumbs up to pass the ball, indicating that the pass just now was very beautiful.

Ancelotti on the sidelines also felt very sorry when he saw Ronaldo's header being saved. Seeing Ronaldo give Zhang Yang a thumbs up, the AC Milan head coach touched his chin and thought. The Chinese guy's passing level today is extraordinary, and the number of passes is also more than usual. Ronaldo also assisted Zhang Yang with a goal. It seems that both Zhang and Roni seem to be very satisfied with each other's partner.

In fact, this is when a pair of forward partners are the most perfect, they both trust each other and are willing to serve each other. Of course, they must be quite awesome. Don't expect a genius to appreciate each other's mutual understanding.

At this time, Tasotti said, "When did Zhang's passing method become so powerful? Is he really only suitable for the current striker?"

I wonder if Zhang Yang would cover his face if he heard this. He did perform well today. Passing is not what he is best at. Today, maybe he subconsciously wants to create opportunities for Ronaldo, so his passing level is extraordinary.

At the end of the first half, the score did not change further. AC Milan was unable to continue to score goals, and the Celtics were unable to score goals, and the score was still the Celtics zero to two AC Milan.

The visiting team locker room at Celtic Park Stadium.

"Haha! Beautiful job, man! Your long pass is almost as good as David!" Ronaldo, who scored the goal, was in a very good mood. He and Zhang Yang were holding their arms and shoulder to shoulder, and two guys who also didn't have much integrity were praising each other.

"Haha, Ronnie, your pass is great, too." Zhang Yang said with a laugh.

"Of course, we are the best partners." Ronaldo smiled and showed his rabbit's teeth.

"Of course." The Chinese guy was so happy.

Everyone in the locker room laughed. Most of the stars in AC Milan are the kind of humble gentlemen. There are few such self-proclaimed guys. Seeing this pair of young and old strikers praising each other there, everyone laughed.

"Oh oh oh yes, you two stole the limelight from all of us." Gattuso said with a smile.

"That's right, Ronnie, congratulations. Zhang, your goal is not bad."

"Congratulations."

"Hehe." Zhang Yang and Ronaldo both laughed and accepted it with a smile.

Ancelotti and Tasotti stood at the door of the locker room and did not go up to disturb the players' celebration. The team led 2-0. It seems that winning the game is not a big problem. What makes Ancelotti even more happy is that Ronaldo returns from injury and shows good condition and good condition. In addition, there seems to be no problem with his cooperation with Zhang Yang. This makes Ancelotti feel more at ease. Before, when Zhang Yang was only one striker, although Zhang Yang was in good condition, Ancelotti always felt up and down. Now, Ronaldo returns and is in good condition. Everything is on the right path.

"Ronnie returns from injury, this is the best news." Tasotti said with a smile.

"That's right." Ancelotti nodded. What he was actually thinking was that if Inzagi and Giladino both made a comeback, AC Milan's offense might be really perfect. However, maybe it would be a headache for whom to be sent to the court at that time. Thinking of this, Ancelotti himself shook his head. Now that Ronaldo has just returned, he has thought so much and done something, and he has been thinking too far. Let's talk about it at that time. Are you still afraid that there are too many players on hand?

Ancelotti walked in, coughed, drawing the players' attention.

He summarized the first half and praised the team for being able to stabilize their position and seize the opportunity to score goals when facing the Celtics' offensive at the beginning.

It was not just a key praise for Zhang Yang and Ronaldo. He praised the performance of the team. The first half of the game was not as easy as the score of 2-0. The team was able to concede goals and did a good job in defense. Bonella, who made Ancelotti worried before the game, performed well in the starting lineup today, which surprised Ancelotti a little. He thought it was time to give Bonella more opportunities. After all, Nesta is getting older, and the team has hidden dangers in the central defender.

There were laughter and joy in the locker room of AC Milan, and Milan's stars were still in the mood to play, while the other side had a completely opposite atmosphere.

The home team of the Celtic Park players was quiet and terrifying. Suddenly, a roar from Gordon Stracan broke the strange calm.

"Shit! shit! tmd shit! You guys are all unplanted mules! You gangs of miscellaneous! You are scared by the stars in AC Milan?!" Gordon Stracan said more and more excited. He slapped the table vigorously, and the players kept silent. The more this happened, the more excited the head coach became. He was so excited that he reached the highest point, and he kicked the corner of the table, and even kicked the corner of the table without even looking at the table, and continued to sputter.

The players couldn't help but have a cold war.

Of course they know the temper of the head coach. In fact, Scotland's head coaches are all this kind of morality. The most representative of them is Manchester United's godfather Ferguson. Ferguson's hair dryer is world-famous, and in fact, Scotland's head coaches are all this bad temper.

In addition, what makes the Celtic players dare not speak is that their head coach is the object of their attention even as a player. In Scottish football, it is the peak mythical place at the top of the pyramids and deserves their respect.

Scottish football has been in a long-term situation where the Rangers and Celtics compete for dominance, but in the 1980s, another Scottish team broke this pattern, won the Scottish championship many times, and became famous in Europe. This team is Aberdeen.

There were not many well-known stars in the Aberdeen team at that time. The most famous one was the Scottish Footballer in 1980, Gordon Stracan, who was only 1.65 meters tall. He, Litbalski of West Germany and Wadell and Barnes of England, were known as the best winger in the 1980s.

As one of the few technical players in the Aberdeen team, Strakan naturally became the core of the team and took on the organization of the team's offense. During the game, he often used his outstanding skills to enter a no-man on the wing, repeatedly breaking through the opponent's defense line, making great contributions to the team's victory.

In the 1983 European Cup, England teams performed poorly. Liverpool (League Champion), Aston Villa (Last Champion), Tottenham Hotspur (FA Cup Champion), Manchester United, Southampton, Arsenal, Ipswich and other teams were all down. The entire English football world was extremely disappointed and wailed. Only Scottish team passed the hurdles and reached the final of the Winners Cup. Of course, even the Scots did not report too much to them.

The hope is that their opponent in the final is the strong Real Madrid team. But the result of the game is surprising. Under Stracan, Aberdeen defeated Real Madrid 2-1, becoming the third Scottish team to win the European Cup after the Rangers and the Celtics. It maintained several records for the British team in European football: at least one of the three major cups in a row for eight consecutive years; at least one team has entered the three major cup finals for 17 consecutive years.

Then in the European Super Cup final at the end of the year, Aberdeen's opponent was the Champions League champion Hamburg. Strakan rushed left and right in the game, causing chaos in the opponent's defense. The Germans were pressed in half and had almost no power to fight back. The core of Hamburg's team, Magath, could not organize the offense at all and was in a mess. In the end, Aberdeen won 2:0. In this way, with the Scottish championship they won, Aberdeen became the "triple-champion" in mid-1983. As the team's number one star, Strakan was also famous in Europe, ranking fourth in the Golden Globe Awards that year, second only to Platini, Daglish and Simonsen (Denmark), among which the latter two were only two and one vote.

Perhaps because of the Scots, Stracan is very flamboyant. He often shouts loudly on the court, encourages or scolds other players. Even when facing the coach, he will strive to do so as long as he thinks the other party is unreasonable. It happened that Aberdeen's head coach Ferguson was also a stubborn Scotcher, and the relationship between the two was very tense. Once, a player accidentally passed Ferguson's car and was severely punished by class. Stracan believed that the punishment was unfair and contradicted Ferguson in public, making Ferguson unbearable and decided to sell him. Stracan, who is in his year of playing, has no worries about nowhere to go. Manchester United scouts have been paying attention to him for a long time, so the two sides hit it off and Stracan became a Manchester United man.

In his first season at Manchester United, Stracan was still in full swing. Not only did he become famous in the club, but he also performed well in the national team Ristracan. In 1982 and 1986, Scotland achieved outstanding results under the leadership of Stracan.

But when Stracan returned to the club, a bad news awaited him. Aberdeen coach Ferguson also came to Manchester United, and the two met here again. In terms of ability alone, they are rare talents, and a strong alliance is like a tiger. In fact, as long as the two do not have conflicts, Manchester United can always play some wonderful good goals. However, the two equally strong and stubborn Scots cannot cooperate well, and even compete for some small things. Ferguson often plays a piece of music tape he likes in the lounge. Although many players tactfully make it not good, the coach still does his own way to maintain his authority. It is fine for others, but Stracan's approach is to take out the tape and throw it directly into the trash can, which makes Ferguson furious. The contradictions are irreconcilable, so Stracan transfers again. This time, he went to Leeds United.

In Leeds, Stracan conquered Leeds United's boss, coach, teammates, including Cantona and fans. In 1991, he won the title of English Footballer. The following year, he led Leeds United to continue his efforts and won the English League championship. At this time, Manchester United led by Ferguson had not tasted the taste of a league championship. It is said that Stracan called Ferguson at that time and said, "I won the championship, do you know?"

Ferguson's answer was, "I never pay attention to the guys I've driven away."

The Scottish temper is evident.

With little gossip, we returned to the home team locker room at Celtic Park, and Gordon Stracan's roar continued.
