Chapter 338: The Celts (2)

The middle finger is the best way to insult, because many players are accustomed to wearing headphones to listen to music, relaxing, and can't hear what is being said outside, and what can be heard through the glass?! Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhang Yuan usually rides with Matri before, and now he is with Pogba, Pogba likes to listen to rap, Zhang Yuan also listens to music, he is actually not very cold to his girlfriend's songs, the main reason is that he wants to listen to Chinese, he listens to Jay Chou's songs.

With the sound of music, the stadium finally arrived, and the Juventus players arrived at the stadium with their own bags.

There is no need to talk about any tactics in the dressing room, and Conte's tactics are simple, he wants to use his passing advantage to counter the overall physical advantage of the Celtic and try to avoid falling into the rhythm of the opposition.

Traditional English football relies on body and impact, and a big man like Drogba is very good in the Premier League, and of course maybe it may be also powerful in other leagues, relying on perverted body and impact.

The reason why Warcraft is magical is not only because he has a strong body and impact, but also because those who have watched his game know that the flexibility of his body is also quite good.

Celtic's forwards are not of that level, their forwards are the shortest average height in the entire team, Celtic's tall people are concentrated in the midfield, but their impact is still relatively strong, like their main scorer Gary Hooper, who is only about 180 tall, but all aspects of ability are more balanced, and the body is strong enough, and according to the way Celtic played Barcelona, their main means of scoring are set-pieces and counterattacks, of course, their forwards are also tall, the key is not sure if it will be on today.

This game is expected by Juventus fans, many Celtic fans don't really know each other, but in other words, this is a good signing, after three years, back on the stage of the Champions League, many fans expect the team to surprise everyone and make a difference in the Champions League.

However, many experts are not in vain, in the live broadcast room of the sports station, He Wei asked Director Zhang a question, in the face of English play, Juventus has always been undominant, does this game mean more than lucky.

Coach Zhang made it clear that he said: "Barcelona's passing ability is stronger than Juventus's, and the overall movement speed of the defense line is faster, but once Celtic seizes the opportunity to counterattack and set pieces, Juventus must be especially careful when defending set-pieces!"

He focused on set-pieces, which is an idea, Conte also focused on practicing set-pieces, corner kick defensive tactics in the pre-match preparations, there is no way to lack Chiellini, Juventus's defensive high point is Bonucci, and he is in his early 1.9 meters, and then there is no player in the Juventus team who is more than 1.9 meters, which must be a loss, not good tactical drill arrangements, once the Celtic seize the opportunity, Juventus's life is very sad.

The time was fast approaching, and the players from both sides arrived in the tunnel to the Champions League theme song and the shouts of Celtic fans in the tsunami.

Zhang Yuan looked at the Celtic players, sure enough, several of them are tall, compared with Juventus, the gap is indeed a bit big, Zhang Yuan's size is the third highest in the starting lineup, except for Bonucci and Barzagli, he is also taller.

But today, in terms of starting selection, Conte did not use him as a central striker, and Zhang Yuan was paired with Matri, who has recently rebounded in form.

The starting line-up on Juventus' side looked like this.

Goalkeeper: Gianluigi Buffon

Defender: Barzagli Bonucci Cáceres

Midfielders: Lichstena, Bidal, Pirlo, Marchisio, Peluso

Forward: Zhang Yuan Matri

Asamoah has returned to the team, but Conte has opted for Peruso, who has just joined during the winter break, to be on the safe side.

On the Celtic side, Neil Lennon sent a 433 formation,

Goalkeeper: Foster

Defenders: Lustig Wilson Ambrosse Isagire

Midfielder: Bronwan Yama Murglu

Forward: Cummins, Hooper Forrester

Let's explain the characteristics of Neil Lennon, the back line is full of big men, the average height is close to 1.9 meters, midfielders Wanyama and Mulglu are also big men, Brown is not only about 1.7 meters tall, Cummins and Hooper are playing in the winger position today, and Forrester is a big man forward.

Neal Lennon used this game differently than he did in the last game against Barcelona, and today on his home turf, facing Juventus, who are far inferior to Barcelona, he is determined to give his opponent a little hardship.

Today's referee team is from Spain, referee Marenco, compare the referee style of various countries, La Liga and Serie A whistles are relatively diligent, these two leagues are Latin schools, focusing on technical tactics, the frequency of the referee whistle in the Bundesliga and the Premier League is relatively small, of course, there is no strict definition in the middle, just a habit, maybe it will be different in the European arena.

After the entrance and pre-match ceremonies, the players on both sides waited for the kick-off, Zhang Yuan and his teammates each hugged each other, and at the end he hugged his forward partner Matri and wished each other good luck.

Marenco's whistle sounded, the game officially began, Juventus took the lead, Neil Lennon was really bold, he commanded the team to press at the beginning, and applied pressure tactics to Juventus, Celtic's scramble was very big, Marchisio just got the ball, and was pushed to the ground directly by Hooper, who was forced to rob.

To say that this Neil Lennon is also very cunning, in the two games against Barcelona, he put his posture very low, at the beginning of the game set up a big lineup, two rounds, Barcelona possession of more than 80%, and Celtic may be afraid of Barcelona, they rarely use foul tactics at all, basically waiting for the opponent to beat at the edge of their penalty area.

At that time, Celtic was a group of tall players who built a moving wall with goalkeeper Forster, and Barcelona had nearly 60 shots on goal in two rounds combined, but there was nothing they could do.

But today against Juventus is different, Neil Lenon has a different idea, it is still those people, Neil Lenon has to learn from the previous Celtic beat Juventus, that is, to use traditional English football to impact the slow-paced Juventus.

So he wasn't afraid to use the Celtics' physical advantage, and that's where the foul came.

Marchisio fell to the ground and Marenco blew for a free-kick without warning, and Hooper's action was not very big.

But the players on Juventus' side did not let go of such an opportunity at the beginning, and Conte complained about dancing on the sidelines, is this a kick or a kick?!

Marchisio, Vidal and others also put pressure on Marenco, and the result was unsuccessful, but the purpose of the Juventus players was to put proper pressure on Marenco.

In the face of such pressure, it is difficult for Juventus to manage the ball well in the front court, Celtic have a strong interception ability, they dare to take risks, and midfielders such as Wanyama rely on their height and strength to make small moves.

In the third minute, Juventus just passed the ball to the front, and Zhang Yuan, who retreated to respond, was directly overturned by a fierce collision by Wan Yama, and Zhang Yuan lay on the ground for a long time and couldn't get up, which was too bad.

Zhang Yuan, who is extremely confident in his body, is unlucky, Wan Yama's height is not much taller than Zhang Yuan, but Zhang Yuan feels the impact, this big guy is really fucking strong, Zhang Yuan's waist feels broken.

"How do you feel?!" After Marenko blew for a foul, he didn't give Wan Yama a card, Zhang Yuan was in pain at this time, where can he argue, the Juventus team doctor hurriedly ran to the stadium to see Zhang Yuan's injury.

"It's not hurt, just let me slow down!" Zhang Yuan touched his waist and buried his head in the grass.

The team doctor helped him massage, and after dozens of seconds, Zhang Yuan stood up again, came to the sidelines with the support of the team doctor, lifted his jersey and saw that his waist was red.

The team doctor sprayed a few times on his waist to let Zhang Yuan feel it himself, anyway, the team doctor touched it, and the bones were fine, and the biggest possibility was that Zhang Yuan, who had not done a good job of preventive measures, suffered a little bit of flesh and skin.

Zhang Yuan jumped a few times on the sidelines, no big problem, returned to the arena, looking at the big black man, Zhang Yuan secretly scolded: "Wan Yama is it?!
