Chapter 180: Little Brother Siena
Although Conte still said bad things on his mouth, he was still satisfied, at least Zhang Yuan opened his mind, this scramble for the header, you must have momentum, you must be the first to react to seize the advantageous position, even if you can't fight for the header in the end, the probability of the opponent's foul is also very large.

Confrontation is not the goal, holding the ball and making the ball is the goal, this is a more meaningful lesson that Conte gave Zhang Yuan.
"I'm so tired today!" said Bonucci with a grin, with a smile on his lips and a bitter heart.
At first, Zhang Yuan was clearly not his opponent, but after Barzagli and Zhang Yuan whispered, this guy immediately changed his appearance, fierce like a bandit, and in occupying a favorable position, even if it was a step away, Zhang Yuan reacted quickly, and often took the lead, physical condition, don't joke, Bonucci doesn't think that Zhang Yuan's physique is inferior to him, and if Bonucci doesn't use foul tactics to get stuck in the position, it is difficult to overturn Zhang Yuan.
Fortunately, his judgment is not so strong, otherwise Lao Tzu would have suffered! This is where Bonucci is more fortunate.
"You guy, you're really strong enough, in fact, I'm also in pain, okay!" Zhang Yuan said with a bitter face, "Okay, have a few more drinks tonight!"
Tonight is the day when Zhang Yuan moved to a new house, Zhang Yuan invited the whole team to his house to be a guest, and most of the players readily agreed, except for a few who had something or were injured, they would go to Zhang Yuan's house at night.
Why did Zhang Yuan invite this guest, well, it was also to get closer to everyone, after all, everyone is not very familiar with it, and the court has to rely on these people to cover it.
On the afternoon of September 18, Juventus challenged Siena away, Zhang Yuan was called up to the 18-man squad by Conte, but he did not tell Zhang Yuan whether he could play in this game, Zhang Yuan seemed to be a lot more patient this season, just wait, he believed that he could always meet Conte's requirements.
Siena and Juventus had an unusual relationship in the past, nicknamed the "Little Zebra", and the two teams worked closely together, Juventus often loaned players to Siena, Siena used it to avoid relegation, and Juventus also used it to train their young players.
They even had a period of time when the same Fiat Group was sponsoring, and the boss was not Fiat but the sponsorship was Fiat, and the relationship was intriguing, so it is not surprising that Siena is the official boy of Juventus.
But with the outbreak of the phonegate, some things have changed, and now Siena is no longer the younger brother of Juventus, but the relationship is not bad, Conte is their old acquaintance, and the promotion of Siena last season was led by Conte, and they have a very deep relationship with each other.
Many of the Siena players are old disciples of Conte, and striker Kaleo said in an interview: "We all know how Conte commands the team, and that's our strength. So, maybe we'll give him some problems when we meet in the third week. On the surface, Juventus are stronger than us because they have great qualities. But if we work hard, then we can play a great game. We'll probably let Conte down because you never know what's going to happen in this game. ”
When Conte appeared at the Stadio Franquia, the fans in attendance responded with warm applause, and there was no way that Conte's credit was great, and the Siena fans were very grateful to him, and he took over for a year to bring the team back to the ranks of the first division.
The game of Serie B is not easy to play, and the current team to put it bluntly depends on who is willing to invest, Napoli is so miserable, with Delarentis, it is not back in the ranks of the first division, and Serie B has a few more rounds, the more games are actually uncertain, plus there are more uncertainties in the play-offs, Siena has no money and no one, and the coach changed again and again in the season when they were relegated and still couldn't keep the position of the first division.
Conte overcame these difficult conditions to lead the team to second place in the First Division, which is a big contribution.
Conte smiled and applauded the crowd, while Siena boss Sarnino did not have such preferential treatment, he was nothing, the league was only one round, and he did not achieve any proof.
Because of such a scene, Sanino is even more determined, Nima's, today has to give Juventus a little color to see, at least not to let Juventus easily score points.
In fact, no matter whether he makes up his mind or not, at least with Siena's weak midfield, he will undoubtedly die a miserable death if he wants to fight with Juventus, and the league will only be played, but anyone who knows a little bit about Pirlo should know that there is this person in Juventus's midfield control can go up to a higher level.
Andrea Pirlo is a bit of a chicken rib for AC Milan now, Allegri is a muscular defensive midfielder at AC Milan, and he wants to pursue a little rhythm, and Pirlo is not very suitable for him.
Some people may ask why?!Because AC Milan's midfield defense is not good, this is not his family's problem, Juventus has the same situation, Gattuso is old, there are many injuries, Allegri needs to be younger and need to increase the hardness of the midfield.
On the other hand, Juventus is different, Juventus has always adhered to the word "stable", they are a mind to slow down the rhythm, Pirlo's arrival is just right, the outside world thought that Conte would adopt the 424 formation, but in fact Juventus is not like this, 424 is like an illusion, Conte puts his main energy on defense, and pursues stability and ball control in order to reduce the pressure on defense.
It's normal for two managers to have different ideas, resulting in the usefulness of the players.
Sarnino, who has studied the current situation at Juventus, certainly can't imagine being as bold as any other team, and at the Stade Franquie, Sanino has already made up his mind to defend solidly and wait for an opportunity to sneak attack.
Juventus' squad did not make any major changes from the previous game, with De Celle suspended, the great left-back Grosso taking his place, and Vucinic replacing Piero.
Juventus quickly dominated possession and incorporated the tempo into their own rhythm after the opening kick-off.
Due to the rain in Siena before this game, there is still some water on the field, the conditions are not very good, Juventus is more cautious after the start, there are many unknown factors under this condition, too much pressure, once you lose the ball, the consequences are difficult to guess, not good for Siena but also not good for Juventus.
It wasn't until the eighth minute that Juventus had their first shot on goal, with Matri scrambling wide of the post.
Zhang Yuan watched two games and found that Matri has indeed improved a lot now, he has always been a point-grabbing striker, and he has improved a lot in grabbing points.
Zhang Yuan thinks so, but Conte has another opinion, Matri needs to improve both running and shooting, but Matri is now 26 years old and has average talent, and Conte doesn't think he has much room for improvement.
It's too hard to find a good striker in Serie A, and now it's very difficult to find a striker like Inzaghi, Trezeguet, Vieri, etc., who can score 20 goals every season, and Serie A is not attractive enough, big names are running out, who wants to stay here?!
Pirlo then faced a heavily defended Siena and unleashed two long-range shots from the perimeter, both of which were on target.
Juventus managed just five attempts in style in the first half, with the only threat coming from Giorgio Chiellini who took advantage of an inverted golden hook from a corner kick opportunity and grazed the post wide of the goal.
Conte is not satisfied with the state of the attack, Juventus have always lacked a figure who can break through in front and create a lethal pass, Pepe and Giaccherini are very active and hardworking, but their passing is not excellent, and the breakthrough ability is relatively average.
The reason Conte values them is not because of their attacking ability, but because they are willing to work hard, which is important for Juventus at the moment.
At half-time, Juventus had no way to take the younger brother, Conte frowned, Juventus not only needs to be able to defend, but also needs to score, how can he win without attack, he has two choices, one is to choose Piero, although Piero is old, but the passing is very good, the older the better. One is Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan is young and energetic, can break through, and can still pass the ball into the room.
