My uncle is Inzaghi

Chapter 5 Picking up a leak

"Why hasn't the new season started yet?"

"Watch the warm-up match first and enjoy it!"

"Damn it, it seems Robin van Persie didn't come to the United States with Arsenal?"

"The captain is being sold again, our factory has collapsed."

In the live broadcast room of Xinglang Sports.

Fans took to the comments section to express their opinions.

The International Champions Cup match between AC Milan and Arsenal is about to begin.

Fans who have just gone through a European Cup summer are looking forward to the start of the new season.

And at this moment.

The hottest news is naturally the transfer headlines reported by major media.

Among them, the most watched transfer news in the European transfer window this season is undoubtedly the whereabouts of Arsenal captain Robin van Persie.

Van Persie did not come to the United States with the team.

This is a very critical signal.

The only problem is.

Where will Van Persie's next home be?

Could it be that, as many British media said, Van Persie has been linked to Manchester United?

Does Arsenal really want to sell its captain and the core of its frontcourt offense to its rival Manchester United?

Of course.

Although whether Arsenal can still be regarded as a competitor of Manchester United, there is actually a question mark.

after all.

Arsenal have been without a trophy for seven years.

On the live broadcast screen, the camera swept across Arsenal's bench. French international center Giroud, who newly joined Arsenal this year, got a close-up shot for a second or two.

obviously.

This is the person widely believed to be Arsenal's replacement for Van Persie.

Subsequently.

The camera gave a big close-up of Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger, which lasted almost ten seconds.

Professor Wenger in the camera is already gray-haired.

The long-term lack of championships has made this representative figure of the academic coach who once pulled Manchester United from the position of Premier League ruler now look a bit vicissitudes.

"Professor Wenger is under a lot of pressure right now." The commentator Zhang Jun's voice sounded.

"According to the news from the British media, it is certain that Van Persie will leave Arsenal. Arsenal is unlikely to accept the situation of letting Van Persie leave for free next season, because Van Persie's transfer will bring a lot of money. The only question is, where will Van Persie go?"

"Judging from media reports, Van Persie is now more closely linked with Manchester United!"

Zhang Jun certainly knows what fans are concerned about now.

Compared to the soap opera of Van Persie’s transfer.

The attention of this game is not that high.

After all, it is just a warm-up match.

Right now.

The camera swept across AC Milan's bench.

Li Mo is neither a "Van Persie replacement" like Giroud, nor a respected coaching senior in the football world like Professor Wenger.

Of course, it is impossible for him to get the "live close-up" treatment from the on-site organizer.

However, the fans of Dragon Kingdom are still very discerning.

They immediately discovered a guy on the bench who looked different from the other players on the AC Milan bench.

"Is there a guy from the Dragon Country on Milan's bench?"

"Maybe they are Japanese or Bang people?"

"Didn't you read the big list? There is a name on the big list that looks like the name of Dragon Kingdom."

"LiMo?"

"The information says that he is a mixed race, his father is from the Dragon Kingdom and his mother is from Italy."

"Is he a mixed race?"

"How can you tell he's a mixed race?!"

Fans are buzzing.

The game also begins.

In the first half of the game, both sides sent their main lineups to play.

Probably because this is the first preseason game for both sides.

The offensive organization of both sides was quite chaotic, the main players seemed to be awake, and the quality of the game was hard to describe.

The first half of the game is over.

The two sides ended goalless.

before the start of the second half.

Massive substitutions were made on both sides.

It is a friendly match after all.

It’s just an eleven for eleven.

AC Milan has half the first team substitutes and half youth training players.

The same is true for Arsenal opposite.

This way.

Li Mo finally got his first chance to represent the AC Milan first team.

He and Pato, who played in a nightclub in New York until past twelve o'clock last night and returned to the hotel drunkenly, partnered as a double forward, while Li Mo's good friend Petria played as an attacking midfielder behind them.

In the second half, AC Milan still adopted a 4312 formation that they are accustomed to.

And Arsenal's side is a 433.

Li Mo, who was wearing the No. 49 jersey, did not have any protagonist aura when he made his debut. He was even directly intercepted by Per Mertesacker behind him when he touched the ball for the first time!

Arsenal's center back combination in the second half was German defender Per Mertesacker and Swiss defender Djourou.

Mertesacker is a German international.

Needless to say, his strength is

This scene made Allegri frown in the audience.

Until now, he has not seen where Li Mo's characteristics are reflected.

Li Mo was slightly startled.

Then he reacted quickly.

Even though this is a warm-up match.

This is also a first-team event.

The intensity and rhythm of the game are different from those of the youth team.

He understands that if he wants to get a chance, he must adapt as soon as possible and integrate into the rhythm and confrontation of this top league level.

The way Li Mo chose to integrate was very simple.

Run more, observe more, think more.

This is what Inzaghi always told him.

Active running, constant observation, and constant thinking!

soon.

Li Mo once again got a chance to touch the ball.

This time he didn't mess around anymore, but had already observed how to deal with it before catching the ball.

He ran horizontally, looked behind the defense with his peripheral vision, and immediately passed the ball back to Pato after finding that there was no chance.

At the first moment of the return pass, he turned around and ran around the defender to prepare for an offside attack.

If Pato passes the ball out immediately at this time, Li Mo may get a one-on-one opportunity.

Unfortunately.

Pato, who seemed to be awake, shook and twitched after receiving the ball, made a set of fake moves and passed it back to the full-back.

Li Mo entered Arsenal's offside trap and had no choice but to retreat and wait for his own opportunity again.

Mertesacker didn't take Li Mo too seriously after completing the steal.

Compared with Li Mo.

His strike partner Pato in this game seems to be AC ​​Milan's striker who needs more attention.

His contempt led to Arsenal conceding a goal in the 53rd minute of the game.

AC Milan launched an attack and the football was passed to the wing.

Full-back Acerbi broke through from the wing, and then reluctantly hooked the ball towards the goal when facing the defender.

Arsenal defensive player Djurou headed the ball forward.

The football came to a later point.

Follow the camera.

The commentator Zhang Jun couldn't help but suddenly shouted: "Li Mo!!!"

With the commentator yelling, Li Mo, who suddenly appeared at the back point, got a chance to "pick up the slack".

Facing the ball in the air, what Li Mo had to do was very simple. He bent his knees slightly and used his chest to point the ball into the empty goal.

One to zero.

AC Milan leads the way.

The Arsenal players looked at the back point blankly.

The AC Milan players were also stunned for a moment.

It was Li Mo's good friend Petagna who reacted first.

"pretty!!!"

He raised his arms and rushed towards Li Mo excitedly.

Scored a goal in his first appearance on behalf of the first team.

This is for youth training players like Li Mo.

The door of opportunity is about to be opened!
