Chapter 240: A Lore from a Veteran!
Matri's shot was brilliantly denied by Mirante and the first half came to an end. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoFifteen minutes later, the two sides will have the second half.
In the dressing room, Colomba praised his players, who felt that they had done well in the first half, that they had no fear, and that if they could play the second half like this, it would be possible for the team to win at home to Juventus.
Colomba has this confidence, on the one hand, the team has talented teenagers like Zhang Shujie and Li Mu, and on the other hand, Juventus itself is not competitive, in the last two seasons, the Bianconeri's record is indeed a little sorry for the audience, often overturned on some weak teams.
Coach Del Neri also has some responsibility for this, having arrived at Juventus last summer with an ambition but was beaten by reality. Now he only hopes that Juventus can use the UEFA Cup as the last fig leaf of the season and the Champions League will no longer be delusional.
Juventus stepped up in attack in the second half, but Matri was unable to knock on Parma's door, squandering two great chances in the space of eight minutes, one of which was almost empty, but he "magically" hit the ball out of the woodwork.
Matri joined Juventus from Cagliari in January this year, and he scored 11 goals in 22 appearances in Cagliari in the first half of the season, and after moving to Juventus, he has also scored nine goals in 15 games, which is still very good. But the club's hierarchy wasn't particularly happy with him and always felt that he wasn't doing well enough.
As a striker, Matri's running ability and point-grabbing ability can be regarded as excellent, and he also has a certain skill with his feet, and his ability to protect the ball on his back is also remarkable, but when all this is kneaded together, people realize that there are no obvious characteristics in him! This is probably the reason why the club does not like him very much, considering that Inzaghi and Trezeguet before him, although they have such and such shortcomings, but the advantages of both are also very distinct. Although Matri scored goals efficiently in half a season at Juventus, playing in such a team is more than just scoring goals.
On the pitch, Matri's shot went past Mirante, but was kicked out by Paletta, who slapped the turf in anger. Strictly speaking, he can't be blamed for missing this opportunity, but Paletta is to blame for moving too fast.
In the first 20 minutes of the second half, Parma was a little passive, which was also related to the fact that the whole Juventus team was in attack. Juventus had six shots on goal in those 20 minutes, four of which hit the woodwork, but none of them could cross Parma's goal line.
Del Neri is starting to get anxious, if the team is in the first period of attack and can't score, once this frenzy subsides, it will be difficult to score again. Colomba is very nervous, from the field Juventus's offensive gradually began to weaken, but still carry the aftermath of the attack, if the goal is conceded at this stage, Juventus is likely to take advantage of this to play another wave of **.
Fortunately, Colomba's fears did not come true, and Juventus's attacking frenzy finally stopped, and after a drum, it was time for Parma, who had been defending for more than 20 minutes, to attack.
This is the Tardini Stadium, where Juventus' "power" failed to succeed, and with the home fans cheering them on, Parma launched the first wave of the second half.
Li Mu received a pass from Giovinco and quickly distributed the ball, Modesto inserted it from the left side, and knocked the ball back to Li Mu with difficulty under Motta's pressure, Zhang Shujie outflanked to the middle of the penalty area, and Giovinco and Morrone also ran into the penalty area.
Bonuccika was in front of Li Mu, he knew that the Chinese had good skills, and in order to cover more defensive area, he spread his legs to prevent Li Mu from breaking through from both sides. But Li Mu poked the ball lightly on his toes and skillfully poked a crotch ball, and when Bonucci turned to chase the ball, Li Mu had already accelerated past him and leaned him behind him.
With a pick at his feet, the ball fell to the front of the penalty area, Zhang Shujie rubbed the back of his head, and rubbed the ball to the middle, Giovinco met the ball is a kick, seeing that the goal was within reach, Chiellini bravely blocked the ball with his face, and Marchisio, who was back on the defensive, couldn't help his teammates who fell to the ground, and hurriedly kicked the ball to the front.
Chiellini collapsed in the box, covering his face and seemingly in pain. Giovinco's shot was close to the goal, and Chiellini was expected to suffer a lot.
The referee signalled for the game to be suspended, Buffon and Marchisio bent down and asked if Chiellini was okay, Chiellini said he needed treatment, and the referee told him to go to the sidelines so as not to affect the game.
Giorgio Chiellini walked off the pitch and Juventus' team doctor stepped up to treat him. He was hit in the face by the ball, causing some redness on his face, but this should soon recover. Del Neri is not going to make a substitution, and Chiellini does not look to have done any real damage, and with a simple treatment, he will be able to return to the pitch.
Juventus are now one less man on the pitch for the time being, and they are also an extremely important defender for the team. In Chiellini's absence, Zhang Shujie's space became very large, although Grigra had a temporary replacement for Chiellini to defend Zhang Shujie, but the Czech full-back's marking of the Chinese striker seemed a little inadequate.
Zhang Shujie's shot was slightly wide and slid out, and Chiellini, who had been treated on the sidelines, was back on the field. Seeing that the team's most reliable defender is back in the fight, the fans can also be relieved.
In the 75th minute of the game, the score of the two sides was still 1:1, and the attack and defense of both teams were very exciting. Li Mu got a great chance on the left side of the penalty area, and Zhang Shujie and others in the middle attracted the attention of Juventus' defense. He hit the goal with a lot of power when he was seven meters away from the goal and unguarded, and the power was very great! At this moment, Buffon showed his characteristics as a goalkeeper, miraculously defusing the danger, saving the ball, and Morrone grabbed the shot before Zhang Shujie, and hit a little higher.
Buffon shook his arm twice at the defender, and said something in his mouth, to the effect that he was complaining about why his teammates didn't defend Li Mu just now. The Juventus players didn't speak, and this time it was indeed their defensive leakage.
Li Mu glanced at Zhang Shujie and said with a wry smile: "It's a pity, this goal didn't score, if it does, it must be very exciting." ”
Zhang Shujie said with a smile: "If it is another goalkeeper, it may not be able to pounce, but this person is Buffon." ”
"People in their thirties, they're still so tough!"
"Are you stupid? The goalkeeper is in his prime around thirty years old, and Buffon is only thirty-one years old, so he is not old at all in the goalkeeper position. Zhang Shujie smiled and patted Li Mu's back.
Li Mu was stunned, as if he remembered that the goalkeeper and the striker were different. He laughed twice and walked away.
There are already two substitutes in the warm-up area outside the field, one is Juventus' Krasic and the other is Parma's Crespo, both of whom are strikers, and it seems that both teams want to win this game. Delneri looked at Crespo and then at Colomba, and suddenly felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart.
Even if Parma is at home, it is not easy to keep a draw, and if Parma can still maintain a 1:1 score with Juventus in the last ten minutes, then the first thing they have to consider is to maintain this score until the end of the game. Because Juventus is so strong, so strong that Parma dare not speak of winning in front of their own home.
But what about now? Parma is bold enough to attack Juventus to the end, look at Colomba's substitution! He is going to replace the experienced Crespo to charge.
Juventus has only its former reputation left, when will this century-old giant be revived?
Piero dropped back into midfield and collided with Giovinco in a duel, and both fell to the ground and never got back up, and the game went to a timeout for the second timeout. After inquiries from the referee and the players, it was determined that the two were injured by each other, and in desperation, the two teams had to temporarily change their substitution plans.
Neither Colomba nor Del Neri considered the idea of replacing Giovinco and Piero, but they were injured and could no longer hold on, so they had to replace them with Crespo and Krasic. Essentially, this substitution didn't improve much for either team.
Giovinco is really unlucky, he just returned from injury, and he was injured again today. He was full of ambition to further prove himself in front of Juventus, his performance in the first 80 minutes was very average, and he was still looking forward to a stunner in the countdown, but God didn't let him play the whole game.
His departure once again allowed Li Mu to return to the front waist and organize the whole team to attack. Less than two minutes after Crespo came on the field, Li Mu passed a good ball for him, but I don't know if Crespo's warm-up time was too short to move his body, or because he was too old to move a little slowly, Li Mu was wasted by him in the wonderful pass.
He also extended his thumbs up to Li Mu slightly apologetically, Li Mu smiled and didn't say anything gossipy. For his predecessors, Li Mu still respects him very much.
There is not much time left, and there will be seven minutes of stoppage time. Krasic forced a breakthrough through Gobi on the right side of Parma, and he just relied on his physical strength to bully Kobby, who was over 30 years old, and Gobby desperately chased back, but he was still a step too slow, and Krasic had already passed.
Matri jumped up for a header, didn't have the power to top it, didn't choose the angle, and the ball flew limply into Mirante's arms.
Juventus, who was eager to attack, pressed on the top of the formation, Milan kicked the ball to the front court to find Zhang Shujie, Juventus immediately returned to defense, Zhang Shujie's speed advantage was once again brought into play, although Chiellini is a top defender, but in terms of speed, he is definitely inferior to Zhang Shujie.
Every team in Serie A now knows that Parma's Chinese striker is fast and technically good, and he is also extra "taken care" of in the game, but in many cases, those defenders are really helpless against him.
Just like Chiellini now, he watched Zhang Shujie run faster and farther, and sighed in his heart why he didn't run at a speed of eleven seconds.
Zhang Shujie approached the penalty area with the ball, Buffon also attacked, Zhang Shujie glanced at the goal behind him and shot with his feet.
This shot is very well controlled, both in terms of skill and strength, and it will definitely be scored in the past. But at this moment, Zhang Shujie is facing Buffon, the former world's No. 1 goalkeeper, and even now, the Italian international is one of the best.
Buffon had already guessed that he would hang the door, and he was already ready. At the moment when the ball rose off the ground, he also jumped high into the air, held the ball up with his hand, and finally the ball hit the crossbar and jumped off the bottom line.
Zhang Shujie put his hands on his waist and looked at the man in front of him. He has played Buffon more than once, and every time Buffon almost always blocks him from scoring a goal! This goalkeeper of 31 is indeed extraordinary.
Parma took a corner kick, Li Mu set the ball up, and by this time the game had reached the 88th minute, and a large part of Parma's players came up, only Paletta stayed in the half. Li Mu passed the ball to the penalty area, Juventus's key defensive object was still Zhang Shujie, and the ball passed by Li Mu was indeed aimed at Zhang Shujie.
For a while, Chiellini, Bonucci, and even Buffon focused their attention on Zhang Shujie, who knew that Zhang Shujie did not have a point of contention, he shook in front of him, confusing the Juventus defense, and the veteran Crespo rushed out behind him.
The 36-year-old Argentine striker bowed his head and the ball broke Buffon's finger five yards out and into the Juventus goal.
The big screen outside the stadium showed a goal time of 89′47", which would have been a fatal goal for Juventus.
The Parma fans cheered, so did Colomba and the players, it was a lore!
Delneri's face darkened suddenly, and his eyes looked blankly at Crespo, who was running wildly. With this goal from the Argentine, he was already able to imagine his ultimate fate at Juventus.
