Conte's aim is to maximise the use of Zhang Yuan, who he hopes will show value and put pressure on Napoli to force the opposition to recycle. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

One of the main reasons why Napoli's forward pressing attack can work is that they can still maintain the stability of the formation, and several lines are relatively compact, and there is no disjointed phenomenon.

If you can teach them a lesson, Mazzari can't afford not to pay attention to the retreat of the defensive line, they must shorten the distance between the goalkeeper and the back line to avoid similar threats again, and once the defense line retreats, the midfield will also retreat, and if they don't retreat, the formation will become fragmented, which is beneficial to Juventus.

Conte's response didn't take long to cause problems for Napoli, Juventus' long passing skills at the back were good, and Zhang Yuan's movement was also very flexible.

Juventus rarely uses long passes aimed directly at Zhang Yuan, but often likes to play between the two central defenders, on the left and right sides, to put it bluntly, let Zhang Yuan and Napoli's defenders chase the ball, Zhang Yuan undoubtedly has an advantage in this regard.

In the 21st minute, Pirlo made a long pass in the backfield, playing behind Cannavaro Jr. and Aronica on the side, Zhang Yuan was fast, and he threw off the two defenders with a direct start, and Cannavaro Jr. signaled that Zhang Yuan was offside while chasing, but the linesman did not say anything.

Zhang Yuan chased the ball like a gust of wind, Napoli quickly retreated, and Cannavaro Jr., Aronica and Campagnaro could only chase with their lives.

This goal is thanks to Reina, Reina attacked first, Zhang Yuan got the ball near the penalty area line, and wanted to change direction to pass Reina, but Reina was very smart, saw the opportunity sideways and intercepted Zhang Yuan's ball!

To be precise, he intercepted the ball with his hand, and the location was a little outside the penalty line, but Reina's body was in the penalty area, and after the interception, he shrank slightly in the penalty area, so at first glance Reina looked like he had successfully intercepted in the penalty area.

But Zhang Yuan saw it very clearly, he clapped his hands and complained to the referee, "Handball! handball!

The referee made a gesture of waving his hand to indicate that the ball was not fouled, and the game continued, Reina did not go far, and directly threw the ball quickly, taking the opportunity to launch a counterattack.

"You just handballed!" Zhang Yuan said angrily to Reina in Spanish.

"yes, I'm handballed!" Reina replied with his hands pouted, "but the referee is the boss!"

Zhang Yuan was really angry with Reina, this guy looks like you have to do something with me, which really makes people angry.

"Okay, little guy! there are misjudgments in every game, don't you?!do you work hard!" Reina patted Zhang Yuan's head, he was definitely not a friendly tone, but wanted to provoke Zhang Yuan's anger.

"Let's see, you look good!" Zhang Yuan couldn't help no matter how angry he was, so he could only fight with Reina verbally, and left with a cruel word.

This time it was Napoli's good fortune, but Mazzari knew very well that he could not continue to do this, and sooner or later the ship would capsize.

Antonio Conte has changed his approach to the opposition, and Mazzari has to change as well, otherwise Juventus may have beaten themselves into a sieve before they can score another goal.

So Napoli reluctantly recovered, Juventus took advantage of the situation to press, and the two sides put the battlefield of contention in the midfield, Juventus's attack gradually improved, Zhang Yuan also got 2 shots, but he didn't hit.

At the end of the first half, the score remained at 1:0, and Napoli led by one goal.

Conte didn't make too many adjustments at half-time, just fine-tuning some defensive details.

He is still optimistic about the situation, because it can be seen that Juventus has gradually gained the upper hand, but today's goal luck is really bad, Zhang Yuan and Vidal each wasted a good opportunity.

But if you continue to play like this, and Napoli don't play the bus, Juventus goals will come sooner or later.

Mazzari didn't make any big changes, he still started to limit Juventus from the midfield, and the forward line still had to force the Juventus defenders to play the ball as soon as possible, according to his idea, as long as his team can score another goal, they can win this game.

Therefore, the situation at the beginning of the second half between the two sides was still the same, Juventus controlled the situation again in just a few minutes, and it was difficult for Napoli to find a quick counterattack, but they would also have sporadic attacks.

In the 56th minute, Napoli got a corner kick from the right side.

Zhang Yuan returned to the penalty area like other teammates to defend the corner, Hamsik's corner went straight to the middle of the penalty area, Cavani got a chance to attack from the crowd, hit a bounce ball, the ball went slightly to the back post, Storari's eyes were quick, and one fell to the ground to seal the ball, but this kind of ball is difficult to judge, the distance is close, and Storari only relies on knee-jerk reactions to make movements.

Taking advantage of Zhang Yuan's stunned attention, Campagnaro followed up with a follow-up shot, but unfortunately the ball was quickly blocked by Storari with a side pounce.

But the story wasn't over yet, the ball was blocked on the left side of the six-yard box, and Ravic cut in quickly and fired another volley.

Zhang Yuan had already reacted at this time, he was exactly on Ravitch's shooting route, but he definitely couldn't block the ball with his body, Storari in the end, Ravitch's shot can be said to be an empty goal, and it will undoubtedly score.

Zhang Yuan's head didn't know what to think at this time, anyway, he was in a hurry, this goal couldn't be scored, and it would be difficult to get into Juventus!

He raised his legs and stretched out his hands, hurriedly blocking the trajectory of the football!

The ball was blocked, and Ravitch immediately began to flap his arms and shout "Handball, handball! This is definitely handball! Penalty penalty, this is definitely a penalty!"

The players in the Napoli penalty area, where are they still in charge of the ball, have gathered around the referee to ask for an explanation.

Today's referee is Farino, his position is okay, although Zhang Yuan is sideways, he still sees that Zhang Yuan did block the ball with his hand.

Without waiting for the Napoli players to urge him too much, he walked directly to Zhang Yuan to show Zhang Yuan a red card, and the Juventus players surrounded him and explained that Zhang Yuan was not deliberately handballed, it was unconscious.

Zhang Yuan, who deliberately handballed after the ball, was still standing pitifully in place at this time without making a sound, it turned out that he had made a big mistake after he had done it, and he was already stunned at this time!

"Why don't you go to the referee and plead your case!" Barzagli stabbed him in the waist.

Zhang Yuan woke up like a dream, and then ran to the referee and explained and pleaded like other Juventus players.

It was clear that the Napoli players would not want to see the red card in Farino's hand not being issued for a long time, and they also put-for-tat pressure on the referee, and there was chaos on the sidelines and players on both sides debating.

In the end, Farino still decisively showed Zhang Yuan a red card, willing to deliberately handball, and according to the trajectory, Ravitch's shot was going to score.

He knew very well what he was doing, Zhang Yuan picked up his jersey and reluctantly covered his face and walked off the court.

At this time, he was really a little shameless to face the psychology of Jiangdong's father, at this time, if you let him say the reason why he chose to block the ball like that at that time, he may not be able to remember, this is a typical impulsive price.

The commentator of Sky Sports criticized Zhang Yuan, "Zhang Yuan's defensive action is too amateurish! Too stupid! Even if Napoli scores this goal, it is a big deal to lead 2:0, Juventus has dominated the field from the middle of the first half, and there are more than 30 minutes left in the game, they still have a chance to equalize! But now two goals behind, one less person, I think it is almost impossible to equalize!"

His opinion was correct, but nothing can be undone!

Zhang Yuan was introduced into the player tunnel by the first-team leader Fabrice, Conte didn't pay attention to Zhang Yuan, he was angry with Zhang Yuan at this time, he also thought Zhang Yuan was stupid, of course, the most important thing for him at this time was to discuss with his assistants what to do.
