Chapter 090: Champion Overture (Alliance Leader [Passerby 957] Plus 10/10)

Inter Milan drew 1-1 away at Villarreal to advance to the last four of this season's Champions League with an aggregate score of 4-1.

After a 0-0 win away from home in the first leg, AC Milan also beat Lyon 3-1 at home to the San Siro in the second leg to advance to the last four of the Champions League with an aggregate score of 3-1.

Only Juventus, who played 0-0 at home to Arsenal and were eliminated 0-2 on aggregate. The team's midfielder Nedved was also sent off with a red card.

This also drew criticism from the Italian media after the match against Juventus.

Torino Sport There are three main reasons for Juventus's defeat, the first is the lineup, on the four substitutes, so that the strength has dropped a lot, Capello is facing a two-line battle, the bench depth is obviously not enough, Juventus's main lineup is very strong, but there is a significant gap between the substitutes, so when the two-line battle is the hardest, there is a shortage of troops; , foul, and finally received a red card, reflecting his mentality, Nedved is a very positive, hard-working player, but sometimes when he is eager to win, he will lose control of his emotions, so yesterday the three main offensive players were in the mentality, There are big problems in the state, which is the key to Juventus's failure to score in the end; the third is the formation, Juventus has been playing a parallel 4-4-2, but Nedved often plays in the forward position, it becomes 4-3-1-2, the left side is empty, Arsenal just cleverly grasped this, they often attack on the left side, suddenly long pass the ball to the right, at this time Nedved is often not in his position, giving Hleb and Eboue a lot of room to move.

"Roma Sport" criticized Juventus for its backward tactics and has been holding a 4-4-2 formation, but now many strong teams in Europe have adopted a 4-5-1 to 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-2-1 style of play, which can gain an advantage in attack and defense, and the main feature of this formation is to gather superior forces in the midfield, rather than putting them into the front field too early, which can effectively control the team in the 4-4-2 formation.

***********

For this statement of "Roma Sport", Li Ang scoffed.

Tactics are always dead, people are alive.

Leon believes that Juventus' problem is in the midfield, which is why Juventus has repeatedly been at a disadvantage in the confrontation with some technical teams, in addition to Arsenal, the two-legged match against AC Milan was a draw and a loss, and against Leon's Inter Milan, both games were lost, and Juventus was also very difficult to eliminate Bremen, whose overall strength was weaker than itself.

Juventus' midfielders have no problem individually, but they all have one thing in common: too regular, too balanced. Balance isn't a bad thing, but the combination of a few well-balanced or attacking and defensive midfielders can feel characterless and mechanical, as Chelsea are facing.

One of the most important reasons why Juventus have repeatedly lost against technical teams is that Juventus' midfield lacks a man like Inter Milan's Juan Mata. Silva and even Aguero and Ronaldo, as well as AC Milan's Kaka, can open the gap in the opponent's formation in one-on-one confrontation, thereby disrupting the opponent's formation, creating opportunities of talented players, Juventus's staffing limits them to play as a whole, but Highbury's small space restricts their style of play, facing the opponent's complete defensive formation, and the way of playing that compresses the midfield space, in order to prevent the opponent from being counter-robbed on the spot, Juventus has to face the two tall forwards again and again to take long passes, which increases the probability of mistakes。 And in the strong dialogue, not being able to control the ball is tantamount to losing first.

On the other hand, among the four midfielders of Juventus, Camoranesi, Emerson, and Vieira are all balanced overall players, and Nedved is still an alternative, it was in 2003 when Nedved was at his best, Juventus reached the final of the European Champions Cup, but now Nedved's strength has declined significantly, and he has a short temper, and finally leaves the field.

Looking at Juventus's midfield from the perspective of Leon, there is indeed a lack of a genius like Zidane back then, who can either dribble the ball or tear apart the opponent's defense with passing, Juventus's midfield has both offense and defense, but lacks characteristics.

***********

Leon made the above analysis during a casual chat within the Inter Milan team.

Somehow, this remark was learned by the media.

According to the report of La Repubblica, Leon triumphantly flaunted the talent of Inter Milan's players, and Juventus' players were mediocre.

This caused an immediate uproar in Italian football.

The Juventus players also jumped out angrily to accuse Li Ang of being mean and falling into the ground.

Among them, Juventus's Swedish genius Ibrahimovic was even more furious, saying that sooner or later he would make Leon suffer.

This incident caused a lot of trouble, and in the end, the original page of "Milan Sports Newspaper" published Li Ang's original words. Although the Juventus players are still very unhappy, after all, it is not a good word.

However, after listening to it, more Italian media and fans thought about it carefully, and felt that Li Ang's words were still very reasonable. It's not rough.

***********

Leon didn't pay any attention to this, according to what he thought, his players were indeed better than most of the Juventus players, and this Inter Milan team was built according to his blueprint, and the players were carefully selected by him.

Leon is now focused on the upcoming 33rd round of the league, as long as Inter Milan win and Juventus cannot take a win from the Stadio Franqui, Inter Milan will win the 2005/2006 Italian Serie A season ahead of schedule!

9 April 2006. A very nice sunny day in the afternoon.

With just over an hour to go, the entire Meazza stadium was already full.

Inter Milan has been waiting for the Serie A championship for 16 years, although this game, if Juventus wins, Inter Milan will need to wait for another round of league games, but Inter Milan fans can't wait, this game, they have come to the stadium, hoping to witness the miracle: Juventus encountered resistance, did not win, Inter Milan won!

It's been sixteen years of waiting, and they can't wait, not a minute, a second, they don't want to wait any longer......
