Chapter 252 collapsed

Juventus retreated!

From the very beginning of this game, Juventus thought about attacking and pressed to attack!

Because they didn't expect Luton to press and create two goals in such an extreme way.

And now the morale of Luton, who have scored two goals, is about to explode, and now the Juventus players also know that if they continue to press up........ The consequence is likely to be to concede more balls!

Now they have to drop back to defend and then expect Luton to be out of fitness in the second half.

If Luton do play like this, even if Gao Bo has a fitness card, the players may not be able to support it.

Of course, Gao Bo knew this, so when Juventus retreated, Gao Bo walked to the sidelines.

"Slow down! Let's take a break!! ”

Gao Bo called Kevin Keane over.

"Give the ball to Antony more, now Juventus is back and let him break through with more balls at the edge of the penalty area!!"

Kevin Keane nodded, and immediately returned to the court.

This scene is not missed by the camera either.

"After Ferrara's adjustment, Coach Gao Bo also made an adjustment immediately!"

"Very timely!! This may also be the reason why he was able to lead the team all the way forward, in terms of on-the-spot command, Gao Bo's reaction was very fast!! ”

Lightkinson also noticed the scene.

Gobo really didn't plan to maintain such a high-pressure rhythm for the whole game - he wasn't crazy enough to do so, and his players weren't robots.

In fact, Gao Bo is already satisfied with the current result.

However, since Juventus took the initiative to retreat to defend, Gao Bo naturally pushed the boat along the way, and at the same time he also thought about giving Juventus a fatal blow!

He immediately switched cards, and now that Juventus is back on the bus, there is no way for Luton to continue pressing and pressing high - Juve have taken the initiative to give up possession.

Adam's fitness card was replaced, and Adam equipped Griezmann with a long-range card.

[Match Card (Green): Increase the success rate of long-range shots by 15%, use by designated player Antoine Griezmann!] 】

Juve shrink their defense, so Luton will have room to shoot from the perimeter! Griezmann's long-range shooting ability is good, and with the improvement of the cards, his long-range shooting is also world-class.

And his success rate of dribbling is also very high, allowing Griezmann to shoot more in this area at the edge of the penalty area will also make Juventus's defense a dilemma - because Griezmann can pass and shoot, such a player can be very powerful when hitting the opponent's iron formation!

Now the situation on the pitch has calmed down, and Luton Town has taken the opportunity to rest for a while.

However, there are many dangers in front of the Juventus goal.

In the 28th minute of the game, Griezmann received a pass at the edge of the penalty area and then took the ball and turned around and volleyed directly!

The ball was blocked by Buffon in the box, and then Vardy rushed to make up the shot, but under the interference of Cannavaro, although Vardy kicked the ball in the end, it was still wide of the line.

The goal scared Juventus supporters.

'Even with the dense defence in the box, Luton still created a threat! The Juventus players have to be in good spirits! The Italian commentator said.

"It's not the end of the world to be 2-0 down, as long as they can level the scoreline, it will be Juventus who will advance to the quarter-finals! With just over 60 minutes left in the game, the task of scoring two goals is not something absolutely impossible for Juventus! ”

Juventus' players thought the same thing, but their recyclable defence also allowed Luton's attacking momentum to be curbed.

In fact, having Luton play in a positional battle is not something Luton are good at.

However, at this time, it seems that Juventus is being suppressed by Luton.

"It's hard to imagine that the Italian giants Juventus have encountered such a big difficulty in this away game, they have now scored two goals, and they are afraid of Luton's attack, Juventus was actually suppressed by Luton! It's absolutely hard to believe that Luton Town are really a team from the third tier? ”

In China, the commentators of X-TV are also lamenting.

"That's amazing!!"

"It feels so unreal for the third tier team to suppress Juventus..."

"Are England's teams that strong?"

Fans are also talking.

.......

Juventus took the initiative to take back the defense, during which they saw that Luton did not have the intention of pressing up and attacking, thinking that their opportunity had come, so they began to move again.

However, just as they were about to press and attack, Luton immediately reverted to their previous frantic pressing posture and pressed Juventus back again.

Now Juventus is facing a dilemma.

If they retract, there is no attacking pressure, and Luton Town can slow down the tempo and save energy.

And if Juventus press up, their defense could be breached by a counter-attack at any time.

Such a dilemma made Ferrara's head blow up.

Until almost 40 minutes into the first half, Ferrara didn't think about what to do.

Fortunately, we didn't concede any more goals in the first half.

However, just as Ferrara was thinking about it, the whistle blew on the pitch.

Antoine Griezmann tripped Malquesio after winning the ball down the middle to break past Melo.

The referee's whistle blew and Luton Town was awarded a free-kick from the edge of the box.

Ferrara already sensed a hint of something bad when he saw Griezmann set the ball up.

Griezmann set the ball in earnest, aiming the center of the air valve at the fill of the ball he was about to hit.

He measured his steps on his back legs and then stood five metres away from the ball and waited for the referee's whistle.

The location of this free kick is about a meter or so at the top of the arc of the penalty area, which is very suitable for a direct shot, and the football is facing the goal, judging by Griezmann's posture, he is also going to shoot directly!

Gao Bo came to the sidelines, and the free kick shot was also a long shot, Griezmann's original shooting footwork was good, and with the cards, the success rate of this shot was still very high.

That's why he asked Griezmanndo to break through, in addition to disrupting Juventus' defense, and more importantly, to create opportunities for set-pieces!

The referee's whistle blows.

Antoine Griezmann starts running!

Bang, brief contact between toe and football, a powerful volley!

Football soars to the sky!

Is it high?

Ferrara was overjoyed, but his face immediately changed!

When the soccer ball reaches its highest point, it starts to fall rapidly.

By the time Buffon saw the incoming ball, the ball had already flown to the end!

From his point of view, the football is even a little fluttering in the air!

"Elevator Ball !!!!!"

Gao Bo was surprised!

Antoine Griezmann kicks a lift ball!

The term lift ball was first coined at Euro 2012 by the Milan Sport newspaper.

The newspaper Sport called Pirlo's free-kick an "elevator free-kick", which "quickly ascended to the sixth floor and then dropped sharply to the first floor".

At this time, there was no specific word to describe this way of playing, but in fact there are many players who can play this kind of ball.

Pirlo, Cristiano Ronaldo, Júnior and many more.

It takes a lot of power to kick a ball like this, and the time it takes to touch the ball is very short, and even then, it takes a bit of luck to get the ball up the elevator.

Griezmann's luck was good, the football was like an elevator, falling rapidly, and at the same time drifting from side to side, making it difficult for Buffon to judge the distance!

Buffon made the save, but just as the tips of his fingers were about to touch the ball, the ball shifted to the other side!

Direct free kick, once again broke the goal of Juventus!

Three to zero!!

Luton Town knocked Juventus down in the first half!!
