The double main players of Milan and Italy are a lucky player in Milan, but the Italian team is not lucky

At the request of my friends, let’s talk about Donadoni, the former double main force of Milan and Italy.

On September 9, 1963, Roberto Donadoni was born in Bergamo, Lombardy, Italy. The most influential football club in the local area is Atlanta. As a local Bergamo, Donadoni naturally chose the Atlanta youth training camp. The player

is a typical wing player. He has excellent ball control skills, excellent breakthrough ability, and accurate crossing. And, after all, he is an Italian player, with a high defensive enthusiasm and a good defensive awareness. Even if he does not reach the level of a defensive vanguard, he will not become the team's defensive weakness.

Such a wing player who can both break through and be willing to defend is very popular in Italian football. When Donadoni was in his early 20s, he became the main left-back of Atlanta's first team and was regarded by the Italian media as the star of hope for the Apennines.

With Atlanta's competitiveness, it is naturally impossible to retain newcomers of this level. In the summer of 1986, Donadoni bid farewell to Atlanta and transferred to Milan. Although the Ross and Blacks had already had the powerful player Evani in the left forward position at the position of the left forward, Donadoni had just arrived and occupied the position of the main left forward, and Evani could only go to other positions to find opportunities.

With his outstanding performance in Milan, Donadoni knocked on the door to the Italian national team. By the 1988 European Cup, Donadoni had become the regular main player of the Italian team.

The Italian team performed well during the group stage and achieved an unbeaten record of two wins and one draw. With this record, they can lock in the top spot in the group most of the time, but the Donadoni were not lucky. They met West Germany, which also had two wins and one draw and had the advantage of goal difference, and could only qualify as the second in the group.

The result is that the Italian team met its nemesis Soviet team as soon as it broke out of the group stage. You know, these two teams met 11 times in official matches, and the Italian team won a total of two games. The victory of one of the games was achieved by tossing a coin.

In the green world, the nemesis theory must be believed. Although the Italian team performed well in the group stage of the 1988 European Cup, once they met the Soviet team in the knockout round, the Italian team had no temper at all and could only accept the fate of returning home. After the European Cup, Donadoni continued to play for Milan. At this time, Milan welcomed digital strong support, and its overall strength was the best in football. In the following 1988-89 season, Donadoni followed Milan all the way to the Champions League final, and also beat his final opponent Bucharest star and won the Champions League without any suspense.

And this is just the beginning. In the 1989-90 season, Milan performed even harder. As the main player, Donadoni followed Milan to fight, winning the European Super Cup, Toyota Cup and Champions League championship.

Milan is at its peak. As the main force of Milan, Donadoni will naturally continue to be reused by the Italian team. In the 1990 World Cup in Italy, Donadoni continued to serve as the main force in the Blues. However, bad luck once again came to Donadoni. In the semi-finals of Italy against Argentina, Donadoni conceded a penalty kick in the penalty shootout, which directly led to the Italian team being eliminated.

What makes people quite interesting is that Donadoni wore the No. 17 jersey in this World Cup. The number 17 is a number that Italians are quite taboo. Because the ancient Romans habitually engraved the Latin word "VIXI" on the tombstone, which means "I have lived." So when Donadoni lost the penalty, the Italians' general reaction was: No. 17 was indeed unlucky.

Donadoni was scolded a lot because of missing a penalty kick, and the next period of time was not easy. Fortunately, after he returned to the club, he would be in a bad mood. As long as Donadoni represented Milan as the starting player, the Ross and Blacks won a very high winning rate, reaching an extremely exaggerated 14 games and 12 wins. Even if Milan faces Barcelona in the remnant formation, he can still win. The two finals lost were the 1993 Champions League final against Marseille and the 1995 Champions League final against Ajax. However, Milan's match against Marseille is also a bit of a pretext. Although Donadoni started, he was replaced by Papan without playing the whole game.

starts in the finals and can play such an exaggerated winning rate. Donadoni is indeed a blessing in Milan.

In the 1994 World Cup, Donadoni was also the starter of the Italian team. I stumbled all the way and finally reached the finals. However, the start time of the final is July 17, which is another number 17 that Italians are taboo. As everyone knows, Donadoni and his teammates were unlucky and were defeated in the penalty shootout.

After this World Cup, Milan began to decline, and Donadoni was also a little overwhelmed. In the summer of 1996, Donadoni decided to bid farewell to Milan and go to the United States to find gold. It was also this summer that he received a call from the national team and appeared in the European Cup.

It is hard to imagine that with the Italian team's lineup configuration at that time, they actually returned home in the group stage. As for the reason for the game, in addition to some relationship with Saki's arrangement of troops, it also involves mysterious and mysterious luck factors. Let me ask, who would have thought that a set piece master like Zora could lose a vital penalty in the group stage? After the frustrated European Cup trip, Donadoni faded out of the national team and played in the Major League Baseball for some time. By 1997, Donadoni unexpectedly returned to Milan and contributed his last strength to the Ross and Black Army.. In the 1998-99 season, Donadoni helped Milan win the Serie A championship without being favored, which was considered a lucky player to live up to his reputation as a substitute. After the end of this season, Donadoni announced his boots as a Milan player.
