Brief introduction to the glorious history of the great AC Milan team

The birth of a great team:

1899 12 16 A group of fans gathered in the room of Dunod Hotel and established a sports club-Milan Football and Cricket Club. Founder: Alfred Edwards. After a hundred years of ups and downs, it has developed into one of the greatest teams in the world today, AC Milan, which is known as the "European Dream Team" and the "Devil Corps".

Early AC Milan team:

In the early days, the full name of AC Milan was called "Milan Cricket and Football Association" or "AC Milan" for short. With the continuous extension of the charm of football, it soon became the most popular project in the club and the local area. By 1905, the club was officially renamed Milan Football Club. In 2007 and 2006, AC Milan won the Italian national championship for two consecutive years. It is worth noting that AC Milan is also the second team in Italian history to win the national championship (second only to Genoa).

1908, some players of AC Milan announced their departure because they were dissatisfied with some policies of the team management, and established the current Inter Milan team, which is also commonly known as "Inter Milan". This has continued to this day, becoming the greatest and most dazzling city derby in the world football-"Milan Derby" 18. AC Milan officially changed its team name to Milan Football Association of Italy. It shows that football is the highlight of the club. The base camp of AC Milan is located in "San Siro" in Milan, Italy. In the west of Milan, AC Milan's main stadium was built in the San Siro, so the stadium was called "San Siro" by AC Milan fans.

After World War II, the Italian Football League resumed. In order to improve the quality of the league, the Football Association reopened the foreign aid policy on 1947, and Milan finally ushered in the first golden age-the Swedish "troika" era.

1949 65438+1October 22nd is one of the most important days for Milan fans. 1948 Gunnar Nodal, the third of the three Swedish brothers who won the London Olympic Games, officially joined Milan. This gentleman was born in 192 1,10,65438. Although I only participated in the second half of the 1948-49 season, I proved myself. For example, the tiger went down the mountain, appeared 15, scored 16, and Milan finally won the third place in the league.

The drama has just begun, and then Milan introduced Gunnar Gren and Nelson Ryder holman, the most famous "Grey-Noe-Lee" combination in football history, which played the most beautiful chapter in Milan's history. In the new 1949-50 season, Milan scored 57 points with 27 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses in 38 battles, ranking second after Juventus by 5 points. Nodal made 37 appearances and scored 35 goals, a record that nobody cares about so far. However, this is far from Milan's ultimate goal, it will only be the driving force for progress.

The great 1950-5 1 season has finally arrived. Nodal made 37 appearances and scored 34 goals, especially in the four derbies between Juventus and Milan. In the end, Milan scored 38 goals, 26 wins, 8 draws and 4 losses 107, conceded 39 goals and accumulated 60 points, and finally won the first league title in the past half century (Milan's fourth league title). Then he won the European Latin Cup with a total victory (from 1949 to 1957 every summer, the league champions of Spain, Portugal, France and Italy all participated). In the following three seasons, Milan's Swedish Troika fought in the south and the north, marched in the east and discussed in the west, and won the Apennine Peninsula. Although it didn't win the championship, two third places in one second were enough to shine in history.

Glen moved to Florence in July 1953 and died in 199 1. In order to make up for Glen's departure, Milan brought in the famous striker juan alberto schiaffino from Penarol for 72,000 pounds, and the transfer fee set a world record at that time. This gentleman was born on July 28th, 1925. He is the world champion of Uruguay 1950 and the fourth hero of Uruguay 1954. After he came to Milan, he formed a new striker combination with two other Swedes and won the fifth league title for Milan in the 1954-55 season. Throughout the season, Milan won 19, 10 draw, 5 losses, 8 1 goal, 35 goals and 48 points. Schiaffino scored 15 goals in 27 appearances, and Nodal scored 27 goals in 33 appearances.

1955-56 season is undoubtedly another unforgettable season, and it is also the last season for Nodal, the greatest Swedish star in history, to play in Milan. He scored 23 goals for Milan, helped Milan win the second place in the league and reached the semi-finals in the first European Champions Cup. He lost to Real Madrid in the semi-final, but he will win the Latin Cup again (the second Latin Cup champion).

After the season, Nodal moved to Rome. During his eight years in Milan (1949,65438+122 October-1956), he participated in 257 first-division matches and scored 2 10 goals, which is the most scored player in Milan's history so far, creating a mythical story. 1995 September 16 The omnipotent man died of a heart attack, and there was another god of war in the sky.

Sweden's "Troika" has only Lederholm left, but as the captain, he is the core of the team. Under his leadership, in the season of 1956-57, Milan won the championship podium again with 2 1 win, 6 draws, 7 losses and 48 points (Milan's sixth league champion). At that time, Milan was challenged by new forces such as Florence and Lazio, and still passed the test. Due to the decline of Milan's overall strength, in the following 1957-58 season, Milan plummeted and ranked ninth. In Europe, the semi-final opponent is Manchester United who suffered an air crash in Munich. After entering the finals, I met Real Madrid again. The whole game was ups and downs, and it was 2-2 in 90 minutes. Heng Tuo scored a goal in the first107th minute of extra time and lost the Champions League.

1958 After the World Cup, Milan beat the Quartet again and recruited jose altafini, the main center of Brazil, the world champion, who was born in Palmeiras on July 24th, 1938. Milan re-established the "new troika". 1958-59 season, 34 games, 20 wins, 84 goals, 32 goals and 52 points to regain the league title (Milan's seventh league title). Altafini scored 28 goals in 32 appearances. In the following two seasons, Milan won the third and second place respectively.

The moment of parting has finally arrived. 1960 in the summer, Uruguayan striker Schiaffino moved to Rome. Swedish hero Lederholm 196 1 announced his retirement. With Milan 12, * * * participated in 359 leagues, scored 8 1 goal, won 4 league titles and 2 Latin Cup titles. 1976, the former captain returned to Milan again and won the league championship three years later, which is another story. His retirement marks the end of the "Troika" era in Sweden, and Milan will usher in another era.

Step into the brilliant AC Milan team

Gianni Rivera was born in Alessandro on August 26th, 1943. He likes football since he was a child. /Kloc-At the age of 0/3, he was discovered by coach Pedroni and joined the second team of Alessandro Football Club. The team specially assigned him coaches to teach him one by one. 15 years old, participated in eight youth leagues, and was soon discovered by Milan with deep pockets at that time (in fact, Milan has always had deep pockets), and was robbed of a large sum of182,000 US dollars. For the sake of their future, the original club had to give up what one favours reluctantly.

At that time, Rivera was thin, quiet as a rabbit off the court, tiger on the court, graceful in technical movements, stable in ball control, accurate in passing, dribbling like nobody's business, wonderful shooting footwork in the restricted area and excellent in heading. The little boy won the joy of Milan with his superb skills, clever personality and sensitive cognition of football. It was his arrival that ushered in another spring in Milan.

1960-6 1 The season started badly, and it was second only to Juventus. 196 1-62 season, under the leadership of Altafini, Milan won the championship with 52 points and 3 points more than Juventus (Milan's eighth league title). Rivera scored 20 goals, ranking first in the top scorer list. In the same year, he was selected for the Italian national team and performed well.

1962-63 season is an important year in Milan's history. The team put all their energy into the European arena and finally ranked third in the league, but everything paid off, and Milan entered the Champions League final again. 1On May 22nd, 963, at Wembley Stadium in London, the opponent was the Portuguese Benfica team led by "Panthers" especially Sebbio. Milan have a "South American Troika" consisting of Peruvian man-marking defender Victor Benitez, Brazilian midfielder Dino Sonny and goal machine Altafini, but especially Sebbio crossed trapattoni with the ball in the first half18th minute to break the deadlock. In the second half, it was Rivera's turn to perform. In the 58th and 66th minutes, two wonderful passes helped Altafini score twice. Milan finally turned the tables and won the European football championship for the first time (Milan 1 Champions Cup).

At the same time, Milan qualified for the Intercontinental Cup against Brazil's Santos team led by Pele. Milan won 4-2 at home and led 2-0 away, but the opponent pulled four goals in a row (Milan's Champions League repeated the same mistakes a few years later). Two days later, in the play-offs, Milan lost 0-/kloc-0, which led to the Toyota Cup (the predecessor of the Toyota Cup, held at home and away).

Because of Rivera's outstanding performance, he ranked second in the selection of the best players in Europe. The first was Yasin, the famous goalkeeper of the former Soviet Union, who was less than 20 years old at that time. Can Cristiano Ronaldo and Zidane compare with him in today's football? Maybe Kaka can play a game.

Perhaps it is too early to become famous, perhaps it is carrying too many expectations. In the next few seasons, Rivera performed in general. The team's performance has been declining again and again. He won the third place in 1963-64 season and the second place in the following year, but fell to the seventh season in 1965-66 season. Although he won the FA Cup (Milan 1 FA Cup), he only ranked eighth in the league, with captain Cesari. Rivera was criticized for her mediocre performance in the 1966 World Cup.

At this critical moment, the team owner recalled the coach Nereo Rocco who led Milan to win the first Champions League. 1967-68 season, Milan regained their courage. Under Rocco's leadership, 18 won, 10 drew, scored 53 goals and conceded 24 goals, and scored 46 points to regain the championship (Milan's ninth league champion), 9 points ahead of the second place. In Europe, it was also a great victory, and good news spread frequently. 1968, Rotterdam, the Netherlands beat Hamburg 2-0 to win the European Cup Winners Cup (Milan 1 Cup Winners Cup). This year, another legend came into this world. He is the prince of Milan-paolo maldini.

In the following 1968-69 season, he won the second place in the league, and reached the final again through the Champions League, against Ajax, the upstart of Europe led by a generation of tianjiao cruyff. 1On May 28th, 969, at the Bernabeu Stadium in Spain, Milan won the Champions League (Milan's second Champions League) with a big score of 4- 1. Among them, Pilates scored a hat trick at 10, 39 and 75 minutes, and Sommani added the icing on the cake in the 66th minute. A few years later, Milan once again played against Barcelona, the European dream team led by cruyff, and the Champions League was 4-0. Maybe Milan is cruyff's eternal nightmare, but it is his three favorite students who have created another glory of Milan, which is another story. At the end of the same year, Milan defeated Plata University led by Pilado Veron (the father of Chelsea Veron) with a total score of 4-2, and won the Intercontinental Cup for the first time (Milan 1 Intercontinental Cup).

It was these outstanding performances that made Rivera the European Footballer of the Year 1969. 1970 World Cup, the semi-final drew 3-3. At the crucial moment, Rivera went into battle, scored the key goal and sent West Germany away.

Just when Milan won one after another, the Football Association once again imposed restrictions on foreign players, and the Rossoneri suffered heavy losses. 1969-70 season, they only got the fourth place in the league. Three seasons fell short and won the runner-up for three consecutive years, but two seasons 197 1-73.

1973-74 season, Milan lost in defending the European Cup Winners' Cup and the league slipped to seventh place. The famous coach Rocco resigned at the age of 62 and returned to his hometown. Although Rocco has left, he has brought endless glory to Milan and left a large number of excellent coaches to the world football. These include 1975-76 season, Luigi Radice, who led Turin to the league title; 1989-90 season, Albertino Bianchi, who led Napoli to the league title; and 1992-96 season, Palma coach nevio scala, who won the European Cup Winners' Cup, the UEFA Cup and the Super Cup, but was dismissed and was unable to participate in the Champions League. And coach cesare maldini, who led the 2/Kloc-0 Italian national team to win the European Championship,

The greatest is undoubtedly the gold medal coach trapattoni, who won seven league titles in Italy alone, coached Bayern Munich in Germany and is now the head coach of the Italian national team, striving to win this year's European Championship.

After Rocco left, Heinz Schnuringer, the backbone of the German defense who played for seven years in the team, announced his retirement, leaving Rivera alone to hold up the banner of the Rossoneri in Milan.

1974-76, Milan won the 5th and 3rd respectively. In order to stop the decline, the former hero 1976-77 Lederholm stepped forward and returned to Milan. Although the league dropped to 10, the FA Cup won again (Milan's fourth FA Cup). 1977-78 season Milan League rose to the fourth season, 1978-79 season. After three years of unremitting efforts, we finally regained the long-lost 1 1 year champion (Milan's 10 league champion). What's important is that this champion team includes Milan's future magical coach Capello, and the discerning Lederholm pushed baresi below 18 to the first-class arena and acted as a free man, thus brewing a legend.

After the end of the season, Rivera, then 36, bravely retired and bid farewell to the pitch. He played for Milan for 20 seasons, made 5 league appearances 1 0, scored 122, won 1 European footballer of the year,1intercontinental cup, 2 champions' cups, 2 winners' cups, 3 league titles and 4 times. At the centennial celebration of the club, another talented shooter, Basten, lost to Rivera by one vote. He said, "I am just a small stage in the history of AC Milan, but Rivera is eternal!" "

Maybe it's a free arrangement, maybe current events make heroes. Rivera took the red and black flag from Lederholm 20 years ago and gave it to baresi 20 years later. However, who knew that there was a vacuum waiting for Milan after Rivera retired?

AC Milan in the trough

Back in time,1On May 8, 960, in a small town called Travarito in northern Italy, a peasant family added a little boy. Time flies, 10 years later. The boy started his football career in the local club. On the football field, he is a little shy or even timid, but he is skilled in football and has a broad vision. 14 years old, recommended by a friend, came to Milan to take two consecutive tests. Playing as a defender for the first time and being a free agent for the second time won unanimous praise from trapattoni, Vitaly, Rivera and others, and has since forged an indissoluble bond with the Rossoneri. At that time, head coach Reid Holm recognized him as a swift horse at a glance, and when he was less than 65,438+08 years old, he entrusted him with an important task. He asked Turone, the general defender, to make room for him. He made his Serie A debut as a free agent on April 23rd, 1978, and beat Verona 2-65,438+0. He is the greatest steel defender in the world and the embodiment of integrity.

However, Rivera's age went from high to low, and the Football Association once again restricted foreign players. 1979, the team won the third place. However, after the end of the season, a scandal broke out that Milan's boss was suspected of being involved in football lottery fraud, players were suspected of gambling and Lazio's match-fixing, and the Football Association forced him to be relegated to Class B.

After the demotion, most players in the team climbed higher and ran, but baresi stayed, because he firmly adhered to the motto of life-a good man does not serve two masters. 1980-8 1 season, Milan won the second division championship and returned to the first division. However, due to poor strength, in the 198 1-82 season, Milan only ranked 14, and once again fell into the quagmire of the second division. However, this time baresi chose loyalty again. He said a very simple and touching sentence: "I am an AC Milan player and I am determined to stay!" " After a season of hard work, Milan once again returned to the first division as the champion of the second division. Since then, Milan has embarked on the road of revival and completely got rid of the terrible nightmare.

His character and skill deeply touched the then Italian national team coach Belzeaux. In the end, Italy won the third World Cup and the World Cup in Spain with 1982. There are two things that make people stunned. First, Rossi was selected for the national team just after sitting for two years, and scored six goals to win the title of top scorer and best player. The other is that baresi, a player from Serie B, was chosen to sit in the backcourt, and the Italian team became the second team to win three world championships after Brazil.
