Chapter 276: Return

Conte was about to make a substitution and he asked Quagliarella to warm up with Marrone. Pen ~ fun ~ Ge www.biquge.info Of course, he doesn't plan to change the two of them at the same time, there is not much time left in the game, he has to take turns to change them to delay a little time.

One of these two is a striker and the other is a midfielder, and Conte is estimated to replace Vucinic or Zhang Shujie to let the two goalscorers rest.

Pato was already on the pitch and he came on for Boateng. Boateng's performance in this game was really average, neither of his two shots posed a threat, and the "Ibrahimovic aura" did not bring him good luck in the game.

Now that AC Milan have stockpiled three strikers up front, plus a Robinho, the Rossoneri's forward line cannot but be said to be luxurious. This should probably be called the most famous forward line in Serie A today.

Pato had only been on the pitch for four minutes before he had a shot on goal, but the power was a little less and the ball was destroyed by Bonucci before it could fly into the six-yard box. Juventus are also going to make a change, Quagliarella replaced Vucinic as a winger, and Zhang Shujie stepped into the center of the striker.

Two minutes later, Arrone Marrone was also on the side, with veteran Andrea Pirlo resting as the game entered injury time.

Although Juventus also had three strikers present, Li Mu had withdrawn to the vicinity of the midfield and was more involved in the defense of the midfield. After two years of training in Serie A, he has never defended before, and now he has greatly improved his defensive ability. After all, this is Serie A, it's a professional game, not a high school league.

Marone is only twenty-one years old this year, very young, only a year older than Zhang Shujie and Li Mu. But he didn't have as much luck as the two, and Juventus had a lot of talent in the midfield, so it was difficult for him to get a chance to play. Conte was "merciful" today and sent him on the pitch.

AC Milan is still attacking, the most desperate is Inzaghi, Juventus defended with all their might, and even Zhang Shujie withdrew. Anyway, there's not much chance to stay in front, so it's better to come back and help the defenders.

Pato played the ball to Inzaghi, but the non-dribbling Milan No.9 didn't let the ball stay at his feet for more than a second, and he turned his back to Ibrahimovic in front of the left, and he ran forward again. As soon as Ibrahimovic got the ball, he was caught by two Juventus defenders, but who is Ibrahimovic? To have a body and a skill, he crashed into Lichtsteiner, shook Barzagli and hit Bonucci behind.

Inzaghi started to catch up with the ball in the tightest of space, and Inzaghi pulled two Juventus defenders in tow, leaving Inzaghi unmarked. Buffon, who was in front of the goal, saw this situation and cursed secretly: "Damn! How could he have missed him?!"

This is Inzaghi's style, using his erratic movement so that opponents can never find out where he is. He faced Buffon alone and was about to shoot when a figure appeared next to him quickly, almost together.

Inzaghi's shot hit Zhang Shujie's instep and bounced out, and Balza used his force to kick the ball into the midfield.

At the end of the game, Juventus beat AC Milan 2-1 at home to remain at the top of the standings and extend their lead to six points.

Inzaghi was lying on the pitch with his hands over his face, and Ibrahimovic had just passed the ball to him to show his trust. AC Milan's players have basically formed a consensus that in the final moments of the game, if the score is behind, as long as the attack will give the last shot to Inzaghi, not because he is a player's merits and veterans, but because of his psychological quality and ability to play tough battles at critical moments. Just like against Real Madrid last year, his two goals off the bench helped AC Milan go unbeaten at home.

It's a pity that this time, he didn't do it.

If he had been able to start half a second faster, Zhang Shujie would have been unable to stop him at all. Is he really old?

He's thirty-eight years old, and there's no guarantee that he'll be on the pitch next season. His game is really one less game.

Buffon patted Zhang Shujie on the back and said with a smile: "Zhang, thank you." ”

Zhang Shujie also smiled and said, "You're welcome. ”

Inzaghi put down his hands, and it happened that Zhang Shujie walked over and stretched out his hand in front of his eyes.

Inzaghi was stunned for a moment, and then he also stretched out his hand, an old man and a young man clasped their hands, and Zhang Shujie raised his hand and pulled him up from the ground.

"Actually...... I admire you. Zhang Shujie said: "If you are ten years younger, I can't stop you just now." ”

"If I could really be ten years younger, I would like to be a partner with you. ”

"All I can say is, it's a pity. Zhang Shujie looked at Inzaghi, the face of the veteran in front of him was full of vicissitudes, and the face that was once handsome enough to fascinate thousands of girls was full of wrinkles.

It turned out that he was really old.

"Hmm...... Philip. Zhang Shujie called out to Inzaghi, who was about to leave, and then pointed to the jerseys on the two of them: "Do you want to exchange jerseys? ”

"Yes. Inzaghi took off his shirt, Zhang Shujie also took off his jersey, and the two exchanged their jerseys.

"Zhang, although we can't be partners anymore, maybe one day, we can meet in another way. Inzaghi finished and left.

Zhang Shujie was stunned, and wanted to ask what this meant, but Inzaghi had already gone far.

Li Mu walked over with Ibrahimovic's jersey: "Jie Zai, why are you stunned? Go back to the locker room." ”

"Oh, good. ”

********************

Juventus were jubilant at home to their most direct rivals, with a six-point advantage over AC Milan and the Rossoneri would have to at least make sure Juventus lost two more games than they were, and even if they win back those six points, they will have to look at the goal difference between the two sides.

After this round, world football will usher in the international break on October 11, and the next round of the Serie A and even the whole of Europe will be postponed for a few days. At that time, the Chinese team will also have a very important game, the third round of the top 20 of the World Cup qualifiers in Brazil, and the opponent is the West Asian powerhouse Iraq.

In the first two rounds, the Chinese team first defeated Singapore 2-1 at home, and then lost 1-2 to Jordan away, and coach Camacho was also scolded by fans. In the Asian Cup at the beginning of the year, the Chinese team also eliminated Jordan with a clean 3:0, so everyone believes that the Chinese team should not lose to Jordan.

But the fans seem to have forgotten that the Chinese team was able to win so easily at that time, mainly because there were returnee players such as Zhang Shujie in the team, and the strength was not comparable to the current national team.

Camacho knew this very well, so he immediately recalled Zhang Shujie and Li Mu, and Zhao Wenkang and Yan Tao were also called back by him. The game was held at the Shenzhen Stadium, the Chinese team sat at home, and there were four strong generals, if Camacho dared to lose, Guo Fan asked him to leave class every minute.

Of the several foreign players in Europe, Camacho only recruited four, and he did not call back players such as Ma Junqiang. This is also a kind of silent tacit understanding between the national team and the national Olympic team, when the competition schedule is too close, the national team will not use the players used by the national team, and vice versa, unless one side has played all the fixtures. Therefore, Camacho did not recruit Ma Junqiang and "Twins". Coupled with Guo Fan's original words, Camacho did not go too far to snatch the people who belonged to the National Olympic team.

But with Zhang Shujie and the four of them, it must be enough.

The Chinese team has two games, one win and one loss, ranking second with three points, and Iraq has the same points as the Chinese team, even the goal difference is the same. It's just that in terms of total goals, Iraq is less than the Chinese team, so it can only be relegated to third. Previously, Jordan won both games, scoring four goals and conceding one, occupying the top spot in the Group A standings. In this third round of the competition, if Jordan unfortunately loses, then the winner between the Chinese team and Iraq will have a chance to snatch the first, but ......

Jordan's opponent in this round is Singapore, a team that plays soy sauce, and no one would think that Jordan will lose. Therefore, the two teams of China and Iran should not think about the top position in the standings, it is better to be realistic, think about how to win, how to secure the second place.

Of course, the Chinese team wants to win, and Iraq wants to do it even more. As long as you can guarantee the top two, you can advance to the top 10.

Zhao Wenkang and Yan Tao arrived in Shenzhen on October 4, and many fans went to greet them at the airport. Zhao Wenkang is playing better and better in SetΓΊbal, and it is reported that the Portuguese Super League giants Porto admire him and want to bring him in, but it has not yet been confirmed by his agent Feng Kai. Yan Tao also has some transfer rumors, but which team it is is not clear for the time being.

The fans can't care about those things now, they just hope that these returnees can bring victory to the Chinese team, and don't even fail to enter the threshold of the top 10 matches.

On the afternoon of October 5, Zhang Shujie and Li Mu flew back to China from Italy, and when the two walked out of the airport, at least hundreds of fans and dozens of reporters gathered there.

The two also waved hello to the fans in a friendly way, and a reporter boldly stepped forward to ask the two if the Chinese team could advance to the top 10 to make a view, Li Mu said: "The purpose of our return is to help the team win, as long as we are united, I don't think we have no possibility of qualifying." ”

Li Mu's words were very tactful, and Zhang Shujie was much more direct: "Iraq and Jordan are both strong, but we are stronger!"

When the reporter heard this, he was worthy of being a striker of Juventus! The tone of his speech was different. He also scored in the last round of the league, I don't know if that added more confidence to him.

The two got together with Yan Tao and Zhao Wenkang in the national team, and they inevitably exchanged pleasantries for a while. The four of them are old acquaintances, and they have to get closer to each other than the other team members.

After the return of Zhang Shujie and Li Mu, all the forwards in the team have to give up their positions for the two; Gao Junming, who plays right forward, also gave up the main force to Zhao Wenkang; only there are some doubts in the back, Yan Tao can play central defender or fullback, and it is impossible to determine who gave way to him, but judging from the recent training, it is likely to be central defender Hu Xiaoning.

After the training, the players of the national team were surrounded by fans and reporters, Zhang Shujie and Li Mu had the most people around them, followed by Yan Tao and Zhao Wenkang, because of the return of these four people, reporters and fans also snubbed other national football players. This is also something that can't be helped, if you have the ability to let them go to Europe too, and join a wealthy family by the way, there will definitely be a lot of reporters around you at that time.

The four players did not put on any show, smiling and signing autographs for each fan, and answered questions from reporters if they could, and replaced them with smiles if they couldn't.

It's different in Europe, I've seen too many big stars, and they haven't put themselves on a very high level. As the saying goes, there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world, even Zhang Shujie and Li Mu dare not say that they are superstars, let alone Yan Tao and Zhao Wenkang.

In the past few days of training, Camacho mainly used the 4312 formation, Zhang Shujie and Li Mu as double forwards, Li Mu was on the left, slightly behind, Zhang Shujie was biased to the right of the penalty area, not in the middle of the position. In fact, Camacho wanted Zhang Shujie to play the "virtual nine", that is, the legendary "pseudo-center". Just looking at the position, he does look like a center forward, but it's just a vacant position. It's like Barcelona's Messi, standing in the center position, but he is just a "pseudo-No. 9".

Zhang Shujie's skills are too comprehensive, and being a traditional center forward will only waste his talent.

Needless to say, Zhao Wenkang booked the right midfielder, and if necessary, he could move a little closer to the middle, but not too much, his characteristics made him incompetent as a central midfielder. And then there is Yan Tao, every time he trains Yan Tao is basically a central defender, it seems that Camacho needs him to stabilize the backfield.

The rest of the squad remained unchanged, except for those who were squeezed out of the main team by four returnees, who were left on the bench to wait for orders in the game against Iraq.
