Chapter 339: The Celts (3)

Conte expects his team to bring the rhythm into their own link, but today Celtic are clearly prepared, their range of runs is huge, the purpose is to stop Juventus's tandem, Juventus is a pass-and-control tactical style of play, but under Celtic's desperate pressing, the passing error rate is relatively high.

So the two teams are really close in possession, and even Celtic still have a faint advantage, but the fast-paced attack that Celtic expects can't be played, and Juventus is very well-organized defensively.

Neil Lennon does not think that every calculation will be as he thinks, he thinks that Juventus is a stronger team on paper than his own team, and should press the formation, but Conte's team did not do this, Juventus's three lines are relatively conservative, which is also Conte's consideration for the beginning of the game.

Celtic has no problem breaking the ball, but they can't form crosses quickly, Juventus's two wingbacks are not very high, this is also for the characteristics of Celtic, they are destined to play wide crosses, Conte is to limit their wings, not let them cross easily.

So Celtic's possession slowed down as soon as it arrived in the frontcourt, and the rhythm was slowed down by Juventus, and their players began to have a little patience to pass the ball back, but it was revealed in a few strokes, and the forced cross on the side, of course, such a ball had no effect, and they grabbed the point in the Juventus penalty area, Forrester alone, and the midfielders of Wanyama and Mulglu did not dare to rush into the penalty area, and the two wingers were the protagonists of the wing article, basically they could only take turns into the Juventus penalty area.

There are too few people competing for the top, Bonucci does not suffer against Forrester, and the rest of Juventus' central midfield team protects the second point better, Celtic have no good chances at all, and the limited shots are not of high quality.

After playing for more than 10 minutes, Juventus did not get any good opportunities, after Juventus controlled the ball, Celtic retreated quickly, at this time Juventus had a flaw that was magnified, except for Zhang Yuan, there was no breakthrough point in the frontcourt, Celtic contracted, there was no threat of explosion from other teammates, Zhang Yuan was easy to be surrounded by opponents alone, but Juventus's strategy is not impatient, there is no room to pass forward, and will pass the ball to the back, try to grasp the ball and attract Celtic to grab it.

Celtic is really powerful, Juventus wants to fully control the positional battle is a very rare thing, and the gap between Juventus and Barcelona players in terms of small skills is also a little.

Neil Lenon is happy with the current situation, he just watched the game quietly from the sidelines, although Celtic did not fully dominate, but whether it was shooting, possession or tackles a little higher than Juventus, Neil Lennon still has complete confidence in his team.

But there are people who are specifically here to break his confidence, and this person is Juventus' number one superstar Zhang Yuan.

In the 17th minute, Juventus broke the ball at the back and wanted to attack quickly, but after Matri got the ball, there was no passing point, and the whole attack turned into a positional battle.

Zhang Yuan has always been engaged in tandem in the midfield, Wan Yama is his personal follower, at this time it has become a positional battle, Zhang Yuan can't stay in the penalty area all the time, he can only come out to answer, Wan Yama naturally ran over and pasted him.

Zhang Yuan returned to the game after the injury, cursed and swore that he wanted Wan Yama to look good, but it was just a mouth, he had not clashed with Wan Yama head-on, but there were one or two passes, and it was Wan Yama who broke through.

Wan Yama knows how powerful Zhang Yuan is, the best way to deal with such a striker is to be close, he must be sticky to death, once he is shaken off, there is a chance to foul, if you are a little farther away, he knows that he can't catch Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan's flexibility has a deep impact on him.

This time, too, when he saw Zhang Yuan out of the penalty area, he immediately followed, and grabbed the jersey on Zhang Yuan's back involuntarily with one hand, which was a clear way to catch the ball without Zhang Yuan being comfortable.

Vidal saw that Zhang Yuan was looked at so deadly, and originally planned to pass the ball to Zhang Yuan, but he could only choose the direction of the pass again, and he returned it to Marchisio.

Zhang Yuan stretched out his hand and put it down, originally he wanted Vidal to pass the ball to him, he had already snuggled up to Wan Yama, ready to take the ball with his back, control the ball, and attract the opponent's defensive firepower, but now Vidal transferred the ball away, and he put his hand down.

At the same time, Wan Yama also put down his guilty hand, he relaxed, he saw that the Juventus player did not pass the ball to Zhang Yuan, who asked for the ball, and his heart was unconsciously relaxed.

But at this time, Marchisio actually didn't stop the ball and directly came to a through ball, which was passed directly to Zhang Yuan, Marchisio was actually mistaken, and when he saw that Zhang Yuan asked for the ball again, he immediately passed it after receiving Vidal's pass.

Marchisio also ran forward into the gap, and he wanted to cooperate with Zhang Yuanlai in a wall-to-wall match.

But Zhang Yuan didn't pass the ball to him, Zhang Yuan was not very well prepared in the face of the incoming ball, but fortunately, he reacted quickly, and immediately thought of a countermeasure.

Wan Yama reacted very quickly, but he was a little relaxed psychologically at first, and then when the ball arrived, he reflexively reacted in the direction of the ball's movement, and this turn was slower than Zhang Yuan, who was prepared.

Zhang Yuan looked like this, and passed Wan Yama lightly, caught up with the ball, didn't raise his head, and directly volleyed with his right foot, at least 26 meters away from the goal, fortunately, the position was better, just a little left in the middle.

Zhang Yuan also had an idea, and planned to give Foster a little test, Juventus couldn't beat the positional battle, and now just when there was an opportunity to shoot, Zhang Yuan chose a long shot.

He deliberately used the outside instep of his right foot to draw the outer arc, with the feeling of a fallen leaf.

Foster didn't react, he still reacted at such a distance, and he flew to the right side.

Zhang Yuan's shot was of high quality, the two central defenders near the penalty area line, Wilson and Ambrosse, did not react at all, the ball was a fluttering arc, Foster tried his best to touch the ball, according to his position he expected the ball to go out of the bottom line, but the ball bypassed him and went directly into the upper right corner of the goal.

"This ball... This goal is so beautiful! It's so beautiful! Zhang Yuanwei interprets the aesthetics of violence for us, and this long-range shot and the strength arc are very outstanding! In the seventeenth minute of the first half, Juventus broke the deadlock on the field with Zhang Yuan's long-range shot! Juventus temporarily led Celtic 1:0 away!" He Wei stuttered a little at the beginning.

"The whole action is done in one go, it is very smooth! Zhang Yuan's shot can be selected as the best goal in this round of Champions League matches!" Director Zhang commented with a smile.

"The Celtics took care of Zhang Yuan's defense today, several people surrounded and suppressed, foul tactics, only three minutes into the opening game, Zhang Yuan was almost injured! This goal should be said to be a very good response!" He Wei was upset for Zhang Yuan, and Zhang Yuan fell to the ground a little more times today.

"Well," Director Zhang nodded, "A player like Zhang Yuan is not so easy to see to death, once you let him get a chance, it will be very fatal, just now Wan Yama was inattentive, and he was actually given away by Zhang Yuan so easily!"

"Wan Yama's performance in the half is still good, once Zhang Yuan retreats today, it is Wan Yama who is responsible for guarding him, and overall it still causes some trouble to Zhang Yuan!" Although He Wei is a little unhappy for Zhang Yuan, but on the whole, the Celtics must do this, and in fact, they are doing well.

The two continued to talk about the goal, Zhang Yuan on the field stared at the ball into the net, immediately raised his arms and shouted, ran to the stands of Juventus fans, and celebrated the goal with the fans!

Will you have a premonition of scoring, Zhang Yuan didn't have it this time, he wasn't quite sure about the location of the goal, he knew the quality, but he wasn't sure in the direction, fortunately he entered!

In an event like the Champions League, it goes without saying how precious the away goal is, the Juventus players ran to Zhang Yuan like crazy, everyone hugged Zhang Yuan, and Vidal jumped on Zhang Yuan's back with a lunge and gave Zhang Yuan a kiss.
