Chapter 251: Derby (3)
"Zhang Yuan's action is too bad!hehe!" Director Zhang said, "But then he still accepted it, and the action was not very big!"
His statement is fair, Zhang Yuan still accepted a little bit, and did not hit Lucio desperately, but it will definitely make Lucio uncomfortable, of course Lucio has it, and it is even more uncomfortable. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Boy, wait! we're not done!" Lucio said through gritted teeth.
The game restarted, as Ranieri expected, Inter Milan as a midfielder and Juventus could not compete at all, no matter how active the run was, Juventus had an absolute advantage in control.
Juventus played today in a different way than usual, in the past Juventus tended to stand firm and maintain the integrity of the formation step by step, but today Juventus is not exactly like this, sometimes with only a few people to complete a pass and cut the combination, play an attack, basically end with a shot.
Zhang Yuan also does not pursue breakthroughs, a large number of interspersed with running, the running ability is very strong, Lucio originally hoped to return Zhang Yuan a little color, but unfortunately this kid is too slippery, often not with him, Lucio can only cry out in vain.
In the 7th minute, Zhang Yuan received the ball while running, "Oh!" A sound came out of his mouth, intimidating Lucio, making a gesture to pick up the right side, Lucio was fooled and stretched a leg, but Zhang Yuan buckled, passed from Lucio's right side, found a gap and immediately shot with his left foot outside the penalty area.
I have to say that his left foot has grown really big over the years, the strength of his foot is very strong, the parts are also accurate, and the ball flew to the near corner like a cannonball, but unfortunately Cesar was very brave and flew with one palm to lift the ball out of the goal.
"Buzz!" the fans let out an exclamation!
Agnelli had already stood up from his seat, but the ball was dissolved, he could only hold his head and regret, how good it would be if there was a different goalkeeper! He thought so, because Zhang Yuan was very good at shooting, and he couldn't ask for more, but Cesar was really not an idle person, and he reacted quickly!
Juventus were awarded a corner and Andrea Pirlo headed it in, but Chiellini's duel was headed high by interference, only to add to the number of Juventus strikes.
Zhang Yuan's strategy today is indeed less, but he consciously ran to increase the number of shots he shot, and the shot just now was actually not his first shot in this game, he had already completed a long shot in front.
Ranieri's manpower in the midfield today is a character who can run, Obi, Zanetti, Poli, and Stankovic are all players who can run, and Poli is known as Pirlo's successor, but in fact it is still far away, which is purely a gimmick found by the Italian media.
Pirlo's ability to get rid of the ball is very strong, and it doesn't work very well for him to press high all the time, unless the opponent's high pressing system is really in place, and it is more successful to be able to make Pirlo play quickly, because of the fast-paced ball, Pirlo may not be a problem, but the rest of Juventus players are a problem.
Poli's ability in this area is not strong, of course, this is also related to his youth, and his mental quality cannot reach Pirlo's current height, and Poli's passing skills can't be compared with Pirlo, which is rarely found in world football, and it's not without reason that people are so famous.
Therefore, Ranieri's restriction on Juventus is mainly to concentrate on his own half of the court to block, rather than moving the formation forward to Juventus' half to high-pressure.
After the start, on the whole, Inter Milan's formation was relatively stable, the midfield did not give Juventus much space in the defense, Conte was a self-defeating martial arts, Zhang Yuan did not suffer much, but the role played was limited.
Matri is not such a sharp winger at all, Pepe's previous famous work in Udinese is fast, breakthrough, and balanced scoring ability, but when it comes to Juventus, he has become a glass man, and his ability has decreased a lot, but now his defensive awareness is much better.
Juventus' current reliance is on non-stop movement and using it to find opportunities.
Conte looked very anxious, Juventus in the first ten minutes, in addition to the opening of the few shots, it is difficult to get any chances, this is obviously not good, it seems that Zhang Yuan is not good, of course he hopes that Juventus can take the lead in scoring, and their attack in this game is also more direct.
Conte decided to make some changes, relying on this alone, Zhang Yuan's role still had to be played, and he quickly conveyed his instructions to the team on the pitch, asking Zhang Yuan to do more retreat and use Zhang Yuan's pass to achieve the purpose of tandem.
This is also one of the places where Zhang Yuan did not do well today, in order to break the goal, although his running position is relatively erratic, but he is mostly concentrated in the penalty area to receive the ball and shoot, and rarely takes the initiative to recycle a little deeper.
After receiving Conte's instructions, Zhang Yuan no longer blindly wanted to shoot, and began to take the initiative to retreat a little deeper, forming a triangle with Marchisio and Vidal in the middle, and Matri and Pepe began to lean towards the middle.
Juventus's formation seems to have become a diamond-shaped position of 442, Conte's use of Zhang Yuan is very clear, every team can guess, because this is not the first time Zhang Yuan has been used in this way, Zhang Yuan is a live chess piece in Conte's formation, changing a position will bring different effects, he is a full-fledged striker, he has played in all positions in the frontcourt, and he has good results.
Ranieri also knew that he also had a countermeasure, and Poli began to guard against Zhang Yuan, but Poli was obviously not enough to confront Zhang Yuan.
Zhang Yuan is also very involved in playing at this time, completely forgetting Conte's education, when facing Poli, he is going to constantly break through Poli, why?
If an attacking player is cut off by the opponent many times, then the next time he faces a person, he will have a psychological barrier, and not daring to pass is the biggest mistake.
The same defensive player is broken too much by the opponent, which will also produce psychological barriers, and when facing the opponent, he will often be timid before fighting, and it is easier to show flaws.
In the 19th minute, Zhang Yuan returned to the middle circle again to get the ball, Polly came up to defend, Zhang Yuan did not pass the ball, he was about to pass Polly, Polly was young but the speed was not fast, Zhang Yuan changed direction twice in a row, and Polly was confused, Polly wanted to put the shovel but hesitated, but was left behind by Zhang Yuan's acceleration, and it was Stankovic who helped defend from the side to poke Zhang Yuan's ball first.
"Be bold, next time he passes you! You can play faster, and you can foul directly!"
It didn't take long, I waited for the second time, in the 23rd minute, it was Zhang Yuan who took the ball, and it was Poli again, Poli took the lead, maybe he listened to Stankovic's words too much, as soon as he got out of the foot, Zhang Yuan made a Marseille maneuver, and passed him from the side, he was fast but Zhang Yuan was faster than him!
This pass is very simple, but ruthlessly destroyed Polly's confidence, he felt that he was fast, but he didn't expect Zhang Yuan to be faster than him, reaction, speed are all below, he finally felt that Ranieri let him keep a mark on Zhang Yuan It was a complete mistake, this is not something he can resist, he needs assistance.
But Ranieri did not explain this, Juventus's midfield is not vegetarian, Vidal and Marchisio also began to advance frequently, it is conceivable that Poli's teammates also have a heavy burden, they need to help defend, they want to establish a defensive system, Poli just wanders outside this system, let Ranieri be responsible for staring at Zhang Yuan.
Now that Poli's confidence has been destroyed, it is equivalent to the failure of Ranieri's plan, and Zhang Yuan's ability to control the ball is enough to expose the flaws in Ranieri's defensive system.
In fact, Poli's defensive confidence is obviously insufficient, Zhang Yuan has been over him three times, he has been passed three times, the only good thing is that these times, Zhang Yuan and his teammates have not formed a tacit understanding, and the offense is not much of a threat to Inter Milan.
But it has been a wake-up call to Inter's defence, which is the first line of defence, but it is already shaky, Ranieri is anxious on the sidelines, Zanetti can also play Boehly's position, but there is no one on the wing.
The people on the bench include Guarin, who were brought in during the winter break, Faraoni and Cambiaso, but some of them are on the bench with injuries, some are just recovering from injuries, and Faraoni is a completely young player who cannot be trusted by Ranieri at all.
