Chapter 316: Penalty?

"Atletico Madrid are a very aggressive team and I can guarantee that even away from home they will try to seize the initiative and try to score first and not back down because of a one-goal lead. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

'Yes, it's hard to say who is favoured by a 1-0 scoreline, but if the Sheets score first, it will be different. ”

"I don't think it's very likely, because Atletico Madrid has been fighting hard and doesn't necessarily have the guts to press out and play away. ”

"That's your own opinion, Gao Han can lead the team to play today, all because he doesn't play cards according to common sense. ”

"But we're talking about the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, it's a final!"

"Yes, we're talking about the final, they beat AC Milan in the UEFA Cup final. ”

"Oh, please, that's an attacking AC Milan, if it's AC Milan now, I'm afraid it's ......"

"But no matter what, I believe that Atletico Madrid will still be attacking away from home. ”

"You mean, we're on the back guard at home and playing on the counter-attack?"

"Oh my God, this is our home field, and in terms of attack power, are we worse than them?"

'Trezeguet, Piero, Nedved, Zambrotta, Camoranesi, Davies...... We can't lose to any team, not even Real Madrid!"

……

There was a lot of discussion in the conference room.

It is clear that the entire Juventus coaching staff is clearly divided into two camps.

One faction believes that Atletico Madrid will still adopt offensive tactics when playing away, but Juventus should take a defensive position and give full play to the advantages of the Serie A team's defensive counterattack.

But the other faction believes that if the Sheets dare to press out and play away, Juventus should face the attack.

At the Alp Stadium, the Old Lady has not been afraid of any team.

Both opinions are reasonable, and both have their own strengths as the basis, so neither can convince the other.

Lippi sat at the top of the room, and he took off his glasses, pinched them in his hands, and gently wiped them with a cloth.

His movements looked very calm, very calm, not at all like he was about to face a big battle.

The two groups of people who were originally arguing quickly noticed the head coach who was not shocked, and found that Lippi had not expressed his opinion until now, so the argument gradually became quieter and they looked over.

Lippi still wiped his glasses slowly, gently put them back on the bridge of his nose, and then slowly swept over everyone present, and finally, he smiled and said softly.

"You're all right, and you're all right, but I don't know if you've found a single interesting detail. ”

Everyone looked at Lippi with puzzled faces.

I don't know if it was the reflection of the light, or if they were wrong, at this moment, they seemed to see behind the glasses, and Lippi's eyes seemed to be shining with wisdom.

"In the first half of Atletico Madrid, we conceded a last-minute goal and it came so suddenly that we were caught off guard and we couldn't guard against it. ”

Everyone nodded their heads, and they reflected on the goal they later conceded, and they also concluded that Marcos Senna's excellent performance was certainly a big factor, but Juventus also had their own problems, a little too sticky.

Playing pass control in front of the La Liga team, Juventus was indeed a bit overt at the time.

But that's the interesting detail that Lippi is talking about?

"Atletico Madrid is not only the youngest team in the quarter-finals, but also the second-youngest team in the 32 Champions League competitions. ”

The team with the youngest average age is Ajax, a team with all-young players.

"Teams like these tend to be more prone to mistakes, and the more critical the big game, the easier it is to make mistakes. ”

Lippi said this, and smiled confidently, "Think about it, how did Atletico Madrid play in the first half of that game at the CalderΓ³n Stadium, how was their attack organized?"

When everyone heard this, they all suddenly came to their senses.

That's right, in the first half, the best team should have been Juventus.

On the other hand, Atletico Madrid, although it is a home game, although it is a one-goal lead, but the time to really control the situation is very little, but Juventus has played a very threatening offensive many times.

"At that time, Atletico Madrid, was it not at all like the Atletico Madrid team we usually saw?" asked Lippi again.

Everyone nodded, and it was.

"That's because they're too young to have any experience in the knockout rounds!" Lippi gave his own verdict.

"The Champions League knockout round, for the test of the two teams, is not only strength, but more importantly, psychological quality, only the team with stable psychological quality can withstand the pressure brought by the knockout round. ”

But as soon as Lippi finished speaking, someone immediately put forward a different opinion.

'But, Marcello, to say they are inexperienced, but last season's UEFA Cup, they played very well in the knockout rounds. ”

"No, no, Trone, you're wrong. Lippi smiled and waved at his strength and conditioning coach, motioning for him to sit back in his seat.

"What kind of teams are in the knockout rounds of the UEFA Cup? What's more, it was the UEFA Cup, and although Atletico Madrid was pursuing it at the time, there was not much pressure on the results, but now?"

When Lippi said this, he once again swept to every assistant present, "Now Atletico Madrid is famous, all the way out, and has become one of the favorites to win the Champions League, and countless fans are looking forward to them winning the championship." ”

Moreover, the influence of the Champions League is far from being comparable to the League Cup, I still remember that Gao Han once said that the Champions League is their World Cup, relatively speaking, the League Cup is a bit like the Asian Cup, and even the European Cup is not as good. ”

"Think about it, although they are all knockouts, is the pressure the same?"

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but nod their heads again and again.

Lippi's analysis can be described as very thorough and to the point.

"And, I don't know if you have noticed, Atletico Madrid is not good at playing Serie A teams at all, especially the counter-attacking Serie A teams, such as Fabio Capello's Roma before, they are playing very hard. ”

One of the important reasons why Atletico Madrid were able to beat AC Milan was that Carlo Ancelotti was not conservative at all in the early part of the season, which gave Atletico Madrid an opportunity to take advantage of.

If it is now, go to another AC Milan that is extremely obscene and anti-back, it will be difficult to say.

"Marcello, what do you mean......"

Lippi smiled elegantly and calmly, nodded and said: "It's still a defensive counterattack, but after the opening, force it to be a little more fierce and let them make mistakes!"

At this moment, everyone clearly saw that the silver fox's eyes were really shining.

…………

April 22, evening, Turin, Italy, Alp Stadium.

The stands were packed, and the fans followed the heartbeat of every touch of the ball with the players in the stadium, and the mood fluctuated one after another, and the admiration and boos were endless.

Both sides are doing their best.

Juventus fielded the strongest starting line-up, with Gianluigi Buffon in goal, Zambrotta, Tudor, Montero and Thuram at the back, Nedved, Davies, Tacinati and Camoranesi in midfield, and Piero and Trezeguet in striker.

Atletico Madrid's line-up was the same as in the first leg, with goalkeeper Petr Cech, Jankulovski, Carvalho, Marchena and Roberto at the back, Deco, Xavi Alonso and Marcos Senna in the back three, Kaka in front and Villa and Torres in the front.

The home team still seems to use the 442 formation, but in fact, the style of play is not the traditional 442.

First of all, Nedved is not so much a left winger as a central midfielder, while Piero is aggressively pulled to the left, but the position drops back a bit and looks a bit like a left winger.

In the middle of the pitch is French centre-forward Trezeguet.

Camoranesi still plays the right flank, with Taccinati and Davies in the middle of the midfield, but left wing-back Zambrotta is positioned far up front, almost the same as the two midfielders, while Thuram, Montero and Tudor are like a back three.

It is clear that Juventus have deployed heavily throughout the middle to increase their containment of Kaka, while also allowing Nedved and Piero to intensify their intrusion into the midfield.

This made Atletico Madrid play very awkward from the beginning of the game, never able to play at their own pace, let alone pass control, whether it is the front attack, or the midfield organization, it is very uncomfortable.

Juventus, on the other hand, is not obsessed with the ball at all, focuses on defense and suppression, seizes the opportunity to counterattack, and immediately turns to defense when the counterattack is unfavorable, and never drags the mud and water.

This style of play is a big headache for Atletico Madrid.

Gao Han on the sidelines also shook his head, very helpless.

Lippi is Lippi after all!

Juventus' style of play seems to completely cede the initiative of the game, but in fact it is focused on defense.

Atletico Madrid seemed to be in the driver's seat, but the attack failed to create a threat.

At the beginning, the players were still able to calm down, but gradually, as the game deepened, although Gao Han and the coach kept calling and reminding on the sidelines, the players on the field gradually showed signs of impatience.

The most obvious sign is that the players are getting indiscriminate.

A lot of opportunities that are obviously not very good used to be patiently poured down and controlled the ball, but now they are basically shooting directly from the feet.

But is it possible to break Gianluigi Buffon's goal with such aimless long-range shots?

It's no surprise that Atletico Madrid rarely come across such dominant, but no-brainer.

Gao Han even used four-star attack cards and assault cards, but they had little effect.

These two trump cards turned out to be ineffective on Juventus!

This kind of thing is the first time Gao Han has encountered it!

As the game progressed, Atletico Madrid played more and more impetuously, and Gao Han repeatedly called on the sidelines to call on the players to be calm and rational, but it didn't seem to have any effect.

Just as he was hesitating to upgrade the two skill cards and add more strength, Juventus made a threatening attack, Zambrotta's cross from the left, Trezeguet beat Carvalho at the edge of the penalty area, grabbed the first spot, and the header was fed to Nedved.

As soon as the Czechs stopped the ball, they immediately dribbled into the box.

This took Atletico Madrid by surprise.

Marchena decisively abandoned Trezeguet, pounced on Nedved, spotted the opportunity, and directly put a tackle to the ground.

The referee's whistle blew suddenly!

At the same time, the whole Alp Stadium was booed!

Everyone at Atletico Madrid, including Marchena, including Alpine, was stunned.
