But now everyone realizes that this moment may never come back again.
Izalet, it really seems like he might leave!
The more realistic the news, the more unbelievable it becomes, or rather, people don't want to believe it.
In Milan City, the fans are extremely silent.
No one asks Izalet whether he's leaving.
Because no one dares to compare with Real Madrid's allure for players, especially when Izalet's task is to activate that incredibly luxurious Galaxy Battleship!
Eight million salary.
Astronomical signing fees and commissions.
An unparalleled ability to develop and profit from portrait rights.
These are areas where AC Milan is eager but powerless.
The Serie A is in decline.
But player salaries are rising in a new wave, and Serie A clearly feels "unable to keep up".
Juventus is like this, with just one Ancelotti already swallowing a time bomb. When old players like Audi renew their contracts later, Juventus will experience more upheaval.
They still belong to teams that have updated and prepared in advance.
In contrast, Inter and AC Milan will face harder times.
Inter, although having 48 million euros left by Gutierrez, Finger's demands are too harsh, leaving Inter in a dilemma now. Finger is in his prime; if they give him a high salary, what about the other players?
Similarly, even giving Izalet an eight million annual salary will disrupt AC Milan Team's salary structure with Izalet in his prime!
Serie A can't hold on anymore!
This year might very well be Serie A's last glory.
The call of the New Seven Sisters of Serie A has just been made, and the twilight of the gods in Serie A has already descended.
This is the cruel side of Moneyball.
Sometimes, when football leaves you, it doesn't even say goodbye.
When you realize it, you are already powerless to restore it.
In the end, it was Izalet who took the initiative to stand up and put a temporary full stop to this overwhelming discussion.
Izalet published a brief text on his public platform: "Regardless, let's fight for the Champions League this season! AC Milan will win!"
Izalet's words brought tears to AC Milan fans' eyes.
Because they seem to already know the answer.
At this moment, many AC Milan fans even hope the team is eliminated in the next Champions League quarter-final match.
Because if that happens, wouldn't Izalet stay at AC Milan for not fulfilling his promise to the fans?
Once when Izalet and Gutierrez dominated Milan City, it now feels like a desolate scene of 'people leaving, tea cools'.
But on AC Milan's training ground, Andrés continues to run and practice tirelessly, sweating.
He knows that his era at AC Milan is about to arrive!
The man in San Remo was right!
Izalet is about to leave, Praxedes is already in his twilight years, and in the entirety of AC Milan, only Rui Andres can fight!
What Lu Yang said was actually true!
Heaven moves vigorously, the gentleman should strive unceasingly!
The next Red and Black is named Rui Andres!
...
February 23, the second round of the UEFA Europa League knockout stage.
San Remo away against Portuguese Super League's Porto!
After the kickoff, Porto launched a reckless attack.
In the seventh minute with the first shot, Parrot scored.
Porto one to zero!
With an aggregate score of Porto three to three San Remo, but because of two away goals, Porto has now taken the lead, reversing the situation!
But five minutes after this goal, Bernulin's long pass from the backfield found Lu Yang.
Lu Yang continuously moved laterally to adjust, moving through the penalty area.
He even adjusted his angle from facing the goal to back again and to face the goal once more.
In the left area of the penalty box, he almost circled with the defending players before, under the siege of four defenders, chipping a shot to the far corner and scored.
This goal can be called unbelievable, absolutely at the level of a Miracle Ball.
This goal not only left Porto's defenders helpless but also had San Remo's other players at a loss, just quietly watching Brother Lu's performance.
San Remo also took the aggregate lead of four to three over Porto with this goal.
But the Porto players didn't lose their confidence, because as long as they score another goal, they can lead again thanks to the away goal advantage!
Ferreira repeatedly launched assaults.
But Kaint's defense has improved since the last match, truly finding Ferreira's dribbling rhythm, completing multiple successful tackles during Ferreira's advance with the ball.
This time, San Remo didn't give Porto another chance.
Kaint and Lu Yang's sweeping in the midfield left Porto almost without a midfield to speak of.
Their only offensive method was a long pass from the backfield to find a forward.
But Lam's only task in this game was to mark Parrot.
Imagine how hard it must be for a defender to mark a fast-moving forward.
Though San Remo left their central area wide open, if Porto launched a central through ball, they could break through San Remo's defense line.
But a central through ball, it must start from midfield.
Porto's football couldn't get past the midfield.
You expect a central defender to break through the midfield with a through ball from the backfield.
This is nothing short of a fantasy.
At the 82nd minute of the entire match, Sogel in a counterattack earned a corner kick for San Remo.
Morici took the corner kick, and Naji, replacing Palacios as a starter today, scored with a header.
Five to three!
San Remo almost killed the match!
Porto went from needing one goal to win to needing two just to draw, deflating their spirits in an instant.
Until the three whistle blows, Porto concluded their European Competition journey this year, exiting with regret.
And San Remo, successfully entered the Europa League last sixteen!
Let Italy's last moments of glory shine!
