Sassuolo fans were boiling, AC Milan fans were dumbfounded, and Inzaghi was also a little stunned, standing motionless on the sidelines.

On the court, Zhang Shujie shook his hand fiercely: "What are you doing? Why don't you foul?"

Although Zhang Shujie did not name him, his teammates knew that he was talking about Romagnoli. Romagnoli also knows it, and he regrets it very much now, why didn't he kick it earlier, otherwise Sansone wouldn't have been able to pass the ball at all.

Romagnoli didn't dare to play just now, one is that he is afraid that he will be carded, he already has a yellow card, and if he fouls again, he will definitely be sent off, and the second is that he pins his hopes on his teammates. As everyone knows, the second idea is the most dangerous, if everyone has the idea that "it doesn't matter if I've been passed, there are other people", then it will be difficult for such a team to achieve good results.

The game also ended in a 3-2 defeat to Sassuolo by AC Milan, who are only two points clear of second-placed Juventus, who will overtake AC Milan in first place if Juventus can beat Atalanta later on.

After the loss, the Milan players were not in a good mood, after returning to the dressing room, Inzaghi criticized the performance of some teammates, especially after a two-goal lead, the score was tied in just three minutes, Milan's overall defense was only Yan Tao qualified, but he also made one or two mistakes, fortunately did not concede the goal, only Romagnoli's mistakes were the most fatal.

Inzaghi is not a dirty man in his playing or coaching career, but he also agrees with Zhang Shujie's idea that Romagnoli should be fouled, saying: "Alessio, you should bring down Sansone, at that time our back line was seriously understaffed, even if a foul was taken, it would be considered a tactical foul." I know, you're scared of the next stoppage, but are you afraid we're going to lose?"

Romagnoli looked at everyone and said, "I'm sorry, it's my fault, if I had been decisive, we wouldn't have lost." ”

His teammates all looked at him, and Yan Tao patted him on the shoulder. Yan Tao's shot has two meanings: the first is not to be sad, and the second is that you are indeed not too bold.

Montolivo didn't speak, but Zhang Shujie looked at his annoyed expression, shook his head, stepped forward, and said: "When you encounter this situation in the future, you must dare to make a move, don't be afraid of fouls." You see that the opposing defender is never soft on our forwards, and as a defender, fouls are not terrible. ”

Romagnoli glanced up at him and nodded slightly.

Juventus were jubilant when they learned of AC Milan's loss, and the Rossoneri dropped the three points they should have gotten to the top of the table. Their opponents are Atalanta again, and they are not strong, as long as Juventus does not make the mistake of AC Milan, winning will not be a problem.

The Blue Italian Stadium is Atalanta's home stadium, and the Juventus Stadium that comes with the team is packed with the away stands, and before the game starts, they are loudly building momentum for the team to create a home atmosphere.

Less than a minute into the game, Zhao Wenkang missed the chance to open the scoring for the team with a hanging shot from the edge of the penalty area, hitting the crossbar, but this shot also announced the prelude to Juventus' attack, and in the 24th minute, Barzagli scored with a header from a corner kick opportunity, and the score became 1:0, giving Juventus the lead. And this time the assister is Juventus' number one assister, Zhao Wenkang.

This is Zhao's eleventh assist this season and the fourth time he has relied on set-pieces to directly assist a teammate to score. At present, he is temporarily ranked first in the Serie A assist list, two more than Zhang Shujie in second place.

Juventus, who have a goal in hand, is playing more and more smoothly, and the offensive is getting stronger and stronger, making Atalanta, which is playing at home, very passive, and there is a tendency to be anti-guest-oriented. Juventus had Paul Pogba's Zhao Wenkang in the midfield, and Atalanta's attack was ineffective, with only one shot on goal in the entire first half, while Juventus had seven, five of which were within the woodwork.

In the second half, Atalanta's attack did not improve much, but Juventus stepped up a lot in attack, and in the 80th minute of the game, Lemina scored again to make the score 2-0.

Eighty minutes, with a two-goal advantage in hand, this is already a very safe score, especially when Juventus is facing a relegation team like Atalanta, and no one thinks that Atalanta has any chance.

At the final whistle, the score was fixed at 2-0, so Juventus overtook AC Milan by one point and moved up to the top of the Serie A table. With 10 rounds of the league remaining, AC Milan will miss out on the Serie A title this season if they don't catch up.

Allegri said in his post-match interview: "It's a great feeling to be back at the top of the table, but it doesn't mean we're going to win the title, AC Milan have been very tenacious and strong this season, and if we make a mistake we will lose the title. ”

Zhao Wenkang said: "I feel very happy to be at the top of the standings again. But we have to be on the lookout for those behind us, and don't forget that they have a superstar like Zhang Shujie, who has the ability to change the outcome of any match, and we have to take it every step so that the championship doesn't fall into the hands of others. ”

The Juventus players and coaches celebrated the victory in the dressing room and took pictures, which may have been an ordinary victory before, but today it was a crucial victory that put them back at the top of the table, and it was worth celebrating alone.

Huang Yu also sent this photo to Zhang Shujie and Yan Tao, and attached a "victory" gesture, both of them could see the guy's smug look through the mobile phone screen, the two were angry half to death, for which they deliberately went to Turin, found Huang Yu, and dragged this guy out to "beat". Huang Yu was "beaten" to "beg for mercy", and asked Zhao Wenkang on the side to help, but Zhao Wenkang pretended not to see anything, and sat on the sofa alone to play games.

Although Huang Yu was "beaten", he also generously invited the two to dinner. Before Zhang Shujie and Yan Tao left, Yan Tao also said to the two "viciously": "You wait, the Serie A championship must belong to our AC Milan!"

Zhao Wenkang smiled and didn't reply, and Huang Yu said: "Okay, let's wait and see who the champion will be when the time comes." ”
