Chapter 312: Chain Defense

The official formation of Manchester United is 433, in fact, Silva is at the back, almost on par with Fletcher, and it feels like 44

Kay Sa and Rooney were at the front, shouldering the heavy responsibility of charging into battle.

At the start of the game, Juventus kicked off first.

They were steady, not fast, but effective, and soon got to the edge of the penalty area.

Mascherano and Fletcher defended the backline and did not lose their position, Piero was taken care of, and after holding the ball, there was no chance to turn around, so he had to return the ball to Nedved.

The Czech Ironman moved from Lazio to Juventus in 2001 for a fee of €41.5 million and won the Ballon d'Or in 2003. Even if Juventus is relegated, they still stick to it and are very popular with fans.

He is 36 years old this year, but his blonde hair is still there, his style of play is still tough, and his style is still tenacious.

After he got the ball, he was not afraid of Mascherano's snatch, and directly used his body to collide, and finally fought his way out.

Split sides, simple and capable movements, without any fancy technical movements, heavy sword without edge, win with force.

The ball fell to Iaquinta, who circled Neville, cut into the box, had no chance, and spun around again to give Nedved.

Nedved had no other idea, and from outside the box was a burst of shots and the ball whirred.

Vidic was shrewd enough to anticipate the kick and immediately kicked out to stop the ball, which Van der Sar grabbed and threw to the ground.

Giving United a kick-off from the start, Nedved, like Gianluigi Buffon, is the man who wants to win the most.

To borrow a quote from Liang Ximing: "No one can make people understand at a glance better than Nedved that football is a man's sport." ”

Van der Sar got up and didn't kick the ball wide, but passed the ball to Rio Ferdinand, who took a few steps to split Silva.

Silva dribbled beautifully, cooperated with Kaisa, and his small-area pass was quite sharp, and he instantly entered the vicinity of Juventus' penalty area.

But the next development is difficult. Juventus have concentrated a large number of people in this position.

Silva dribbled the ball, followed by Marchioni and Paulsen, they didn't give Silva a one-on-one chance, Silva moved a little bit, they moved with him, and everyone else moved.

In desperation, Silva gave the ball to Kaisa's feet. There are a lot of people around Kaisa!

Thiago was close to Kaisa and flanked by a deep-retreating Iaquinta, again without a one-on-one chance.

Chiellini and Lerotaree, the two centre-backs, moved forward accordingly and harassed them incessantly. Manchester United played Juventus' right flank, and Juventus' formation quickly moved to the left.

After the players in the middle moved to the left, Nedved and Melberg on the right also followed in the middle to protect the defence. Rooney's location was almost empty.

Kaisa saw Rooney's space and Patrice Evra came up, but the ball was not easy to pass, he had to pass through four or five defenders, and no one could pass it.

He opted to pass back to Carrick, who was pressing. Carrick had a beautiful long ball and received a pass from Kaisa, who was only harassed by Piero.

Carrick took a step, smoothed the ball and immediately moved wide to the feet of Patrice Evra.

Patrice Evra didn't stop the ball and went down quickly, Juventus' right side was empty, and it was Evra's chance.

But he was wrong, Juventus moved at a very fast pace, especially laterally. Melberg quickly returned to position and followed Patrice Evra closely. Nedved also moved to the right and appeared near Wayne Rooney.

And the middle of the two of them, which was evacuated, was quickly filled by Paulsen and Thiago, and there were no gaps. There are still people following closely around Kaisa, and there is not enough space.

"Chain defense, pretty good." Phelan muttered, "We are invincible in the world in front defense, but in terms of defensive ability, Italy's top team is the number one in the world." ”

Looking down from Old Trafford, Juventus' players completed their defensive rotation in a matter of seconds, and the heavily guarded left side was instantly withdrawn.

The right side has become a hub for personnel, full of players. Patrice Evra can only pass back, to Rooney. Rooney was followed by Nedved, and the pressure was not small, and he quickly transferred to Carrick.

Carrick followed Kaisa's meaning, took a few steps forward, attracted the defense, and handed the ball to Kaisa.

Kaisa suddenly dribbled forward with the ball and entered the penalty area. Silva responded and squeezed into the box as well, helping Kaisa take Molinaro.

The moment Kaisa dribbled the ball, Chiellini posted it, "Don't think about it." ”

Muscle to muscle, thump. Kaisa was not weak physically, but he still made room and chose to shoot directly.

Sou! The ball was still touched by Chiellini's long legs, and Buffon was quite accurate in his positioning, holding the ball and not giving Kaisa a chance to make up for it.

"It's such a powerful force, no wonder this guy can become a Golden Globe winner." Buffon was uneasy, "If we give him another chance, can we still prevent it?" ”

Claudio Ranieri stood on the sidelines, sweating profusely, their defence flawless, but Kaisa was unable to defend with his individual ability to tear open space.

Scholes sat next to Van Persie, and the two men clenched their fists thoughtfully. Van Persie thought more, "If I were to face Chiellini, would I have been so easy? ”

Kaisa didn't shoot and patted Chiellini on the shoulder, "The bus is in a good position. ”

"Go, we're defending in chains, not swinging buses." Chiellini is not angry, isn't Kaisa deliberately causing trouble?

Italy's so-called chain defense, which is the quintessence of helping to defend and stacking personnel, and the counterattack is also quite sharp, okay? There is a fundamental difference with Mourinho's buses.

Fans of the Italian team, in particular, don't think that the chain defense is just a big bus. Kaisa couldn't understand the difference between the two sides.

Probably, the difference between the two is like the difference between Shira-Ishigo-Sayuri and Hok-Jo-Ma-Concubine.

As the game continued, Juventus launched a counter-attack, and Nedved went straight up, twisted the ball, and quickly pushed forward. Mascherano met his opponent and couldn't stop the robotic Nedved, allowing him to flick the ball to Piero's feet.

Piero was quite powerful, a counter-run, and cooperated with Iaquinta, and he succeeded. In the face of Vidic's up-and-go.

Nemanja Vidic was eaten and played by Torres, suspended in the Premier League, and the Champions League cannot be disgraced. He saw the moment and got down and cleanly cut off the ball at Piero's feet.

"Wipe it!" Piero yelled, the man passed, and the ball was lost.

Vidic snatched the ball and immediately flicked it for Carrick, and Nedved made a save and the counter-attack was ineffective. Carrick played a coquettish long ball and the ball fell to Kaisa's feet.

Kaisa started extremely quickly, did not give Juventus' players a chance to get close, broke through with the ball, and disrupted Juventus's defensive arrangement.

Silva and Rooney have already crept down,
