Chapter 408: Super Cup (Part II)

Originally, Mourinho wanted to defend with all his strength, but in his choice of frontcourt, no matter how positive his attitude is, defensive ability is always a problem, that is, it is no problem to retreat and press high in the frontcourt, but the real interception still relies on Frank Lampard and Ramirez in the midfield and the defenders in the backfield.

Now Mourinho wants to put pressure on Pirlo, Oscar, who plays in the forward midfield position in the middle, has this responsibility, but it obviously does not work well, after thinking for a while, Mourinho decided to make substitutions, and it is also okay to use the side well in the counterattack.

Last year, Chelsea could have wrestled with Juventus in terms of ball control, but this season suddenly failed, Juventus is no longer Wuxia Amon, a season Vidal, Marchisio and others are still making rapid progress, self-confidence is constantly increasing, not at all like last season by Chelsea to play out of control.

It didn't take long for today's game for Mourinho to see such signs, so he also calmed down and didn't have to hold the ball in his hands.

Juventus did make some progress in the second half and were able to attack Chelsea's hinterland, but after all, the number of times was limited, and Chelsea's defense was not covered, and it was a bit sudden to be offside by Lichtsteiner.

Mourinho thought so, but Juventus seemed to have found a way from Lichtsteiner's forward insertion, and began to frequently use this kind of long pass dispatch to play both sides, the core is Pirlo, and the substitution is urgent, and Mourinho can't sit still.

In the 70th minute, he replaced Schurrle with Mikel, and the formation was adjusted to 433, in fact, the midfield triangle and Juventus's midfield triangle are-for-tat, he did not change Mikel and Lampard, but let Mikel occupy a forward position in the midfield triangle, specifically for him to keep an eye on Pirlo.

Replace Schurrle because Schurrle's characteristic is still to break through the goal, in the passing can not compare to Oscar, Oscar has experience in playing Juventus, last season scored two goals, played Juventus jaw-dropping, Mourinho also hopes that the front field can not only advance but also have the ability to pass a fatal blow.

As soon as this substitution was made, the effect was immediate, Juventus was immediately unhappy, Mikel was strong and strong, and he had just played, and he was stalking Pirlo, Pirlo's power was greatly reduced, Chelsea also used this period to play a few good counterattacks, Torres was once again a parallel import, in the face of his teammates' passes, Torres actually kicked directly and hit high, not at all like the state in the first half.

Mourinho is really speechless, his thinking is correct, why can't he score in the front, he can't help it.

In contrast, Conte's mood is not wonderful, his tactics were broken by Mourinho, and he directly grabbed seven inches, two-pronged, of course, he is not unable to continue, let Tevez and Zhang Yuan retreat, strengthen the run, and continue to strengthen the side offensive can also be, but Conte did not do this, but let the team slow down the pace again.

Jose Mourinho was not so easy to get along with, and it didn't take long for him to see that Juventus were no longer forcing a wide play and that the tempo had become more stable, and he immediately asked the team to press up front, intending to bring the tempo to the fast pace that Chelsea are better at.

It didn't work, everyone didn't work, and as the minutes ticked by, the 90 minutes ended quickly, and the two sides ended in a 1-1 draw.

The two managers made one substitution, while Antonio Conte used none, and it looked as if both were preparing for extra-time.

Conte made a substitution at the beginning of extra time, replacing Tevez with Llorente, which was a clear indication of continuing to be conservative and using long balls to make a fuss.

Coincidentally, Jose Mourinho also made a substitution, with Belgian youngster Romelu Lukaku replacing Torres.

It's a spectacle to behold, with both coaches playing high strikers in overtime with surprisingly consistent tactical intentions.

However, they are just thinking about it, Llorente and Lukaku are not playing well, the role of the high striker has not been played, since both sides have a defensive attitude, naturally there are no good opportunities.

Zhang Yuan still has strength all over his body now, but unfortunately after turning into a second striker, the support of his teammates is not strong, and he does not dare to press too much, and Conte has repeatedly explained to him that he can't lose the ball, which is equivalent to putting a tight spell on his head and having to serve the team, which makes Zhang Yuan a little dissatisfied, he doesn't like this way of not taking risks.

However, he is not the head coach of the team, and he has to accept that he is not satisfied with the tactical arrangement.

When the second half of extra time was over, everyone was helpless, and the ownership of the championship was decided by penalty kicks, Zhang Yuan was arranged by Conte to take the third penalty kick, and the front alternated with each other, and both sides scored penalties, 2:2.

It was Zhang Yuan's turn, Cech stared at him with a helmet, and when Zhang Yuan set his eyes on Cech, Cech gave Zhang Yuan a shallow smile as if he was kind, and he was so polite that Zhang Yuan also smiled back.

Petr Cech is also a very good goalkeeper, also known as the world's No. 1 goalkeeper, and the second oldest in the 10,000-year-old was always Buffon.

After Zhang Yuan set the ball up, he took a few steps back, and he made up his mind to shoot Cech's middle, drop ten times with one force, and use the easiest way to deal with the strongest goalkeeper.

Run-up, shoot!

Zhang Yuan's shot was very powerful, and there was no problem in the direction, that is, he specifically hit the lower edge of the goal beam, but Cech was very good, he didn't move, he raised his hand directly to intercept, and the ball hit his arm, but it was blocked out of the goal.

Zhang Yuan was dumbfounded when he saw that the ball didn't go in, why don't you predict it, how do you know that I shot in the middle of the road?!

I'm sorry, Cech doesn't know, he's also betting, he believes in Zhang Yuan's footwork, he has no possibility of saving on both sides of the shot, why not bet on Zhang Yuan to shoot in the middle.

This time Zhang Yuan unfortunately became the background board of the brave Petr Cech, Zhang Yuan walked back to the Juventus team depressedly, he wanted to win this championship very much, although it was not very valuable, Marchisio patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, it doesn't matter, believe Buffon!

What else can be done now, can only think about Buffon, Zhang Yuan nervously meditated in his heart that the gods of all parties blessed Buffon to save the next Chelsea penalty, so as to avoid huge psychological pressure on Juventus's follow-up penalty players.

The next penalty is Lampard, Lampard may also think too much, and he actually shot the middle like Zhang Yuan, uh, he is even more unlucky than Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan is at least in the range of the goal frame, and he shot directly high.

Chelsea gave up the advantage again, Zhang Yuan let out a long breath, and now it depends on who is hard.

The fourth Juventus player was Andrea Pirlo, who was still in charge of the middle, but this time Cech misjudged the direction and let Pirlo in.

On the Chelsea side, Ramires came on the field and shot into the lower right corner, Buffon made a brave side pounce, and the ball was saved by him, Zhang Yuan was immediately excited, which means that Juventus can win the championship as long as it scores in the next round, even if it fails to score, there is still a chance.

The Chelsea players were nervous, they were at a disadvantage and many of them were now praying that Marchisio, the last Juventus penalty taker, would make a mistake, but Marchisio didn't make a mistake and fired into the bottom left corner in a decent way, and Cech misjudged the direction.

Juventus finally won 4-2 against Chelsea in the penalty shootout, and at the end of the smile, the Juventus players hugged on the pitch and warmly celebrated this hard-won championship trophy.

The number of shots on goal and the ratio of shots on target are not as good as Chelsea, and the quality of their attack is obviously higher, which is Chelsea's advantage, their offensive and defensive conversion is fast-paced, and they can launch a threatening attack on the heart of Juventus in minutes, while Juventus is step-by-step, Chelsea has already returned to the defense in place, Juventus is not in a hurry anyway, and the advantage of possession has not been transformed into an offensive advantage.

That's where Mourinho comes in, the style is very similar to that of Real Madrid, they don't necessarily have the best possession against the big teams, but the quality of the attack is relatively good, and of course it's another thing against the weaker teams.
