How could Tong Sheng lose?

At the beginning of the game, Sampdoria lined up a 4312 formation. From this formation, we could see that Giampaolo still had some ideas. He also wanted to use counterattacks to break AC Milan's goal. He was still behind. More people gathered in the field.

When counterattacking, it is obvious that more use is made of the attacking midfielder and the two forwards.

However, it is obvious that AC Milan will not easily give them a chance to counterattack. AC Milan started the game with high pressure, crushing Sampdoria's formation. At the same time, there is also a bit of disconnect between the forward line and the midfield and backfield, which makes Giampaolo a little worried.

Although he had such a prediction before the game, the state of the scene was still worse than he expected.

In the 17th minute of the first half, AC Milan, which pressed high across the board, broke through the goal of the home team Sampdoria.

Under high pressure in the frontcourt, Sampdoria's Swedish international Ekdal made a pass error and was directly intercepted by Brandt. Brandt pushed the football forward immediately. Haaland on the penalty area line directly pulled the ball and turned around, facing the Sampdoria goal, and then without any delay, he shot low.

The football stuck to the turf and rolled into the lower right corner of the goal!

Audro fell to the ground very quickly in front of the goal, but still did not touch the football!

One to zero, AC Milan took the lead.

After AC Milan took the lead, Sampdoria had no more options. They had no choice but to attack.

After all, the Italian Cup is a single elimination system. If they lose this game, they will have no chance at all. Although Sampdoria is not determined to win this game, they will not give up easily!

They don't value the result of this game, they value the process!

This makes their mentality actually very relaxed.

At this time, after the attack, they performed more freely and became more outstanding.

This also created a lot of trouble for AC Milan.

At this time, Saponara's precise through ball was inserted into the feet of the advancing Cugliarella. The ball was passed very well and was sent to a position where AC Milan's defense was weak. This made the Sampdoria fans very excited and they roared loudly.

Unfortunately, Quagliarella's volley was deflected by Courtois in front of the goal.

Quagliarea felt very sorry and held his head in his hands, feeling extremely regretful!

Corner kick, Sampdoria got a corner kick opportunity. They quickly kicked the football out. Quagliarella in the penalty area jumped high again and shook his head to attack the goal. The football missed the left goal slightly. column.

This also shows that Sampdoria is indeed capable. No wonder they are currently ranked seventh in Serie A.

Tong Yi also reminded the AC Milan players to defend and be cautious and not to give the Sampdorian such an opportunity again.

At this time, Sampdoria's players were playing more and more relaxed, more and more lively, and they were also playing more and more threats.

In the 37th minute of the first half, Sampdoria launched a long pass directly from the backcourt, and the football flew towards the frontcourt. Dias was successful when competing with Quagliarella for a header and pushed the ball away. But the football flew to Saponara's feet, and he pushed the football directly into the space behind Dias.

Former Inter Milan striker Caprari quickly swerved into the space and chased the ball.

Danger, this is very dangerous.

Seeing that Caprari was about to run and kick a shot, Romagnoli from the side immediately boldly slid over and shoveled the football hard in the penalty area. Rosenery at the scene was also horrified and worried when he saw this. If he fouled here, it would be a big hit!

With a bang, Romagnoli scooped up the football and shoveled it out of the bottom line first.

What a risk, Roseneri at the scene immediately gave Romagnoli applause!

Romagnoli is so brave. If the ball fails, he will be given a penalty kick.

Corner kick, Sampdoria got another chance for a corner kick.

The Sampdoria fans at home shouted loudly to cheer for the team, and in the midst of the cheers, the Sampdoria passed the ball into the AC Milan penalty area. In the penalty area, Akanji jumped up high and pushed the football out.

However, the football directly hit the arm of Joan Armene who was one step inside the penalty area, and the referee directly awarded a penalty kick!

Joan Armene was very angry and innocent. He told the referee that the opponent's Ekdal reached out and lifted his arm.

This ball was not handballed by Joan Armene on his own initiative, it was passive!

And this goal was intentional by Sampdoria.

This goal shouldn't be a penalty!

But the referee still insisted on his decision and gave the Sampdorian a bump.

Sampdoria forward Quagliarea takes a heavy kick

The shelling goal directly blasted the football into the upper right corner of the goal. Courtois had no chance at all with this ball, the angle was too tight.

At the end of the first half, the two sides were tied at one to one!

To be honest, the Roseneris did not expect that this game would be so intense. The performance of the Sampdoria people was indeed beyond their expectations. They were even a little worried, feeling that they were likely to lose this game. However, they are still cheering for the team and hope that the team can win this game.

Soon the second half of the game between the two sides began!

At the beginning of the second half, AC Milan launched a very threatening attack.

After midfielders Goretzka and Brandt cooperated continuously, Goretzka pretended to pass the ball, but he broke through with the ball and entered Sampdoria's penalty area. This surprised many people. Everyone also thinks that Goretzka has to pass the ball or shoot from a long distance. It is rare to see him break through the opponent's penalty area with the ball!

Sampdoria immediately panicked, and at this moment Goretzka shot directly with his legs and volleyed the football towards Sampdoria's goal!

Audro immediately fell to the ground in front of the goal and threw himself sideways, but unfortunately he still didn't touch the football! .??.

With a clang, the football hit the outside of the near post hard, and then bounced off the baseline. Sampdoria escaped!

Rosenery felt very regretful at the scene. This was an excellent opportunity!

Goretzka also held his head in his hands, expressing great regret.

However, this goal gave the AC Milan players more confidence. They felt that winning this game was only a matter of time!

At this time, Giampaolo directly replaced Linetti with English teenager Ronaldo Vieira, which seemed to strengthen the forward impact of the midfield.

This substitution still had some effect. Soon after Vieira came on the field, he fired a heavy long-range shot from the front of the penalty area. The football shot out quickly, slightly higher than the crossbar, which still caused damage to AC Milan's goal. A very big threat. Fortunately, no goals were scored!

This allowed Sampdoria to strengthen their determination to attack.

Sampdoria immediately pressed out, preparing to fight AC Milan to the death.

At this moment, Joan Armene directly cut off the football at Saponara's feet, and the football rolled to Goretzka's feet. Goretzka immediately hit a long-distance through ball. Before Sampdoria's defensive players had settled into their defensive positions, they had already sent the football to a dangerous position!

This is why Tong Yi emphasized the need to seize the opportunity to switch between offense and defense, create a time difference, and not give the opponent's defensive players a chance to position themselves.

This ball perfectly reflects this!

When Lautaro received the ball, the defensive players in front of him were in a chaotic position, and there were also huge crowds around him.

This is a great opportunity, a great opportunity!

The Sampdoria fans at the scene became desperate and screamed in horror.

Sampdoria's defensive players immediately rushed towards Lautaro and intercepted Lautaro.

At this moment, Lautaro immediately swung his legs and pretended to shoot. After attracting the attention of the defense, he directly knocked the football covertly and passed the football to his strike partner Haaland!

Harland directly stopped the ball with his left foot, and swiped the football with his right foot. With a bang, the football immediately shot towards Sampdoria's goal like a cannonball.

The speed of this ball is very fast, like a sharp arrow coming off the string.

The goalkeeper Audro in front of the goal reacted very quickly, but when he jumped out from the side, he only touched the football with his fingertips, but the football still rushed into the goal behind him quickly.

Two to one, AC Milan once again exceeded the score.

Seeing this, Giampaolo shook his head slightly. AC Milan was in good shape in this game, and Sampdoria might not have many opportunities. However, they did not give up, and he still signaled the team to strengthen their offense.

Sampdoria immediately pressed forward crazily, even trying to give it a try.

Their backcourt is a bit empty, which is a hidden danger.

During this period, Sampdoria's offense, which was pressing all the way, did indeed produce something, and it also threatened AC Milan's goal. But he didn't score a goal. Instead, he made Sampdoria's defense get closer and closer!

This looks very dangerous, and AC Milan is a team that is very good at seizing the gaps in transition between offense and defense to score goals. So at this time, Sampdoria is very dangerous, and the fans are also very nervous.

At this time, AC Milan's midfielder Joan Armene once again stole the ball. The football rolled to Goretzka's feet, and Goretzka made a long pass. The football flew towards the frontcourt, and the Sampdoria players were shocked. It was dangerous!

Because Sampdoria's backcourt was a bit empty, and Tonelli, the only defender, failed in the high ball competition with Harland. The ball was returned by Haaland to Brandt on the line of the penalty area. Brandt, who rushed up, did not wait for the football to land and directly hit the football with his right foot. The football quickly shot towards Sampdory. Asia's goal.
