Chapter 344: Tang Wu who can't be shaken
As time went on, Capello became agitated on the sidelines.
In the last round of the league against Fiorentina, Juve, who did not admit defeat, were led three times and equalized, showing great resilience.
But what happened to this game?
Why can't you score a single goal?
Is it because the players are too tired?
Why did Nedved perform the same way as Bayern's Mackay?
What about our offense?
What about our shots?
What about our goals?
So far, Capello has only asked Camoranesi and Oliveira to swap places, and has not made any other changes. For the old Italian, the team has yet to score and seems to be just luck.
As long as you work harder, harder, maybe...
On the Alp Pitch, the red kicked more and more smoothly, but the Bianconeri played more and more impatiently.
Not to mention the repeated unsuccessful attacks, Liverpool almost seized the opportunity and counterattacked.
In the 52nd minute, Alonso made a long diagonal pass from the right side of the midfield, and Baros passed Montero at the edge of the penalty area, and with the interference of Thuram behind him, he pushed a left-footed shot from 12 meters in front of the goal
Looking at the ball rolling against the far post, a depressed Baros roared into the sky.
"No, it can't go on like this!" A Juventus fan in the stands shouted first.
Immediately afterwards, the other Juventus fans also stood up and shouted after the others.
With a honeyed trust in the starters on the field, Capello made the first and most fatal mistake of the game.
In the limited time he played, he put the victory of the game in infinite prayers.
Juventus' attack was weak, while Liverpool's counter-attack was threatening.
In the 57th minute of the game, Capello, who was under heavy pressure, finally played the first substitution card, replacing Oliveira with Salayeta and switching to a front three.
However, the increase in the number of strikers did not bring new attacking energy to Juventus. Conversely, as Salayeta has not yet adapted to Liverpool's rhythm, Juve have been offside more often.
In the 63rd minute, in order to receive Emerson's through stopper, Ibrahimovic struggled to get rid of Hyypia next to him, and chased the ball with two long legs.
However, when he stepped on the ball in front of the baseline, he found that the linesman had already raised the flag in his hand.
"Offside? Fake, how is it offside again! ”
The Swedish striker is in a hurry, so he has to step forward and reason with the referee.
"Are you blind? Didn't see that it was a good ball? ”
"If you're short-sighted, please go with a set of contact lenses and then be a referee!"
Seeing Ibrahimovic and the linesman arguing, the referee hurriedly blew the whistle and ran over to understand the situation.
As a result, there is no doubt that the Swedes were issued a Topaz card.
'Coach, we need a more flexible striker. Watching this farce, the assistant coach whispered beside Capello.
Indeed, it was just an offside position, and even if it was a miscalculation, there was no need to argue with the linesman, let alone a yellow card.
At this time, Capello was not annoyed by Ibrahimovic's lack of calmness, and the Italian coach turned his head to look at the bench after thinking for a while, biting his lower lip and thinking for a moment, he still shook his head.
The teaching assistant on the side wanted to speak and stopped, he was just a suggestion, and he had no decision-making power.
What's more, even if he was left to decide, he didn't want that person to play.
Order was restored on the field, Tang Wu took a free kick and handed the ball directly to Traore on the other side.
Capello kept his eyes on the situation, hoping that a player would have a flash of inspiration and stand up like a savior to save the team and save himself.
In the 70th minute, Juve attacked again to the front of the Liverpool penalty area.
Nedved struck a cross and handed the ball to Ibrahimovic, who ran back to his side from the front line.
Seeing Ibrahimovic take the ball, two Reds immediately approached.
The 1.96m Ibrahimovic lowered his center of gravity and swung his legs, as if trying to return the ball to Nedved.
But just as the two of them were scrambling, the Swedish striker suddenly slammed the ball to his left foot.
Seeing this, Finnan on the side also hurriedly stretched out his foot, but Ibrahimovic's left foot was faster, wiped the ball, and kicked it between Finnan's legs.
Coupled with Ibrahimovic's escape, the tall Juventus centre-forward even squeezed through the gaps between Finnan and Riser with the ball.
The Liverpool players were stunned, no one thought that such a tall center forward could work so delicately at his feet.
Finnan immediately turned back to chase after him, and Alonso stepped forward to block Ibrahimovic's path.
"Here, here!" Piero shouted on the other side. Although the Zebra Prince also has defenders around him, he is relatively safer than Ibrahim, who is caught in the front and back.
Piero shouted a few words, and his voice lowered. He found that his team-mate had deftly dunked past Alonso.
Ibrahimovic's tall body squeezed the Liverpool players behind him, and he flicked the ball with his right foot and burst into the penalty area little by little.
No one was shouting for Ibrahimovic to pass the ball because he was already present in Liverpool's entire defence with the ball.
Seeing that Ibrahimovic was a little too big when he passed, Carragher immediately ran over to make a steal. Ibrahimovic's long legs were faster than anyone else's, and he pushed the ball back a little and conceded it past Carragher.
By this time, the Swedish striker had already dribbled to the top right corner of Liverpool's small penalty area, and there was only Hyypia in front of him.
Ma Dan, isn't it always judged that Lao Tzu is offside?
This time, Lao Tzu broke through with the ball by himself, see how you judge!
Eevee glanced up and saw where Hyypia and Tang Wu were standing.
That damn Chinese goalkeeper actually stood in a straight line with the defender? Isn't this a godsend?
The Swedish striker once again swung his right leg, a position that is very dangerous even from a tight angle.
Ibrahimovic's leg swing is so deceptive that to outsiders it may seem like a shot at every swing, and it is only when his foot touches the surface of the ball that one knows whether he shoots or not.
In this way, Ibu watched Hypia fall to the right because of his weakness, and even Tang Wu behind him seemed to shift his weight to the right.
"Ibrahimovic, shoot!"
This time, Ibrahimovic did not lift his foot, but at a speed half a beat faster than usual, he directly used his calf to help push his left foot.
At such a close distance, you don't need much effort, just faster pace than usual and precise pushing.
"Got it?!"
The fans around the world watched the match, along with Capello, watch as the foot goes straight to the far corner.
But in the next second, it was the same black shadow that followed me like a shadow, and it appeared ghostly on the path of the ball again.
The ball bounced with a visible amplitude, and there was a noticeable change of direction before rolling past Tang Wu's fingertips.
In this way, the rolling ball rolled out of the bottom line against the goalpost in this "sudden collision".
In the sigh of a black and white fan, Capello said helplessly: "Let Adrian warm up, we can't help but need a flexible striker, and we really need a striker who understands the TO." ”
