Chapter 18: Incredible
When Icardi scored, Tsuneki, who had been sitting in the dugout, burst out, along with other coaches and substitutes.
Lazio's bench suddenly became a sea of joy.
Everyone was celebrating the goal.
They were in stark contrast to the lifeless Juventus bench and coach's bench over there.
They said before winning the game that they must beat Juventus, and they were still a little worried, after all, football is not what you say you want to do.
They have their own rules and don't change with your own wishes.
But now it seems that maybe football is still very popular.
This game, they have a play!
※※※
When the game resumed, the Juventus players were still a little uncomposed.
Lazio, on the other hand, took advantage of the victory to chase after Juventus, who killed Juventus, who was very embarrassed on the pitch.
For a while, they could only be tired of parrying, and they had no power to fight back at all.
As for what beat Lazio, no one thinks about it now, they just think that it would be good for Juventus not to lose this game......
A draw is the best result.
Anyway, even if it was a draw, Lazio didn't win against them, in that case, Lazio would not have won at Juventus' home stadium for four consecutive seasons......
It's natural to be a little unambitious to think so, but Juventus can't care about that much now.
Even so, Juventus were unable to prevent them from conceding a second goal.
In the seventh minute after they conceded their first goal, Lazio went on a furious attack for seven minutes to finally bring Juventus to collapse in the final moments.
The second goal was conceded precisely because Juventus made a mistake at the back, their defenders made a mistake at the end and did not kick far at the end, and the ball fell right at the feet of Icardi. Icardi was unequivocal and kept his senses high enough when something unexpected happened.
In the face of this big pie falling from the sky, Icardi did not go directly away by himself, nor did he try to break through with the ball.
Both are the wrong approach.
The most correct thing to do is to pass the ball!
Juventus' backline has found a mistake and they are rushing to fix it, so naturally they can't care about anything at this time, but they are bent on plugging the holes in Icardi's side.
Then they don't care about the loopholes elsewhere.
At this time, Icardi himself has a lot of defensive pressure to face, but this is not necessarily the case for other Lazio players.
So Icardi's first choice was to pass!
He targeted holes in the Juventus backline. Standing still and passing the ball over.
Mario. Gotze appeared in that space like lightning, and then he received the ball!
"Götze! Mario. Gotze! ”
As the commentators exclaimed, there was a huge shout throughout the Alpi Stadium.
Because they all know it's a great opportunity for Lazio!
Then in turn it is a very dangerous time for Juventus!
Juventus' centre-backs were quick to fill in.
Gotze didn't give him a chance to stick himself up, put the football inside, and then decisively shè goal!
Perrin seals the near corner. The soccer ball hit a far corner!
The ball passed by Perrin, who was moving towards the near corner, and Perrin tried to change direction and center of gravity to save the ball, but he was a beat slow and couldn't reach anything.
The ball scurried past the tips of his fingers and into the back corner.
All Perrin could do was watch the ball fly past and crash into the inside of the far post. Bounced into the goal again!

“2:0!! Unbelievable! 2:0! Lazio have a two-goal lead over Juventus in just ten minutes away from home! Is this really at Juventus' home turf! ”
The commentator asked such a question, and it was also a question from many people who watched the game.
Is this really Juventus' home stadium?
You have to know that at home, Juventus are playing very well.
They are now twenty games unbeaten at home in a row!
Last season, they beat their biggest rivals, Lazio, at home.
Such a home performance will naturally give the media and fans a lot of confidence in Juventus.
That's why many people think that Lazio will lose to Juventus again away from home.
Unexpectedly, this game has only started for less than ten minutes. Lazio are already two goals ahead......
Is this really Juventus' home stadium?
There were reporters in the media gallery who grabbed their hair and looked a little crazy - they were the same reporters who had been singing about Lazio before, and ten minutes before they had beaten Lazio at home to Juventus. There is no doubt at all.
But now, they're just like they're doing now. It's all crazy, and they scratch their hair.
Because Lazio, who they thought was hopeless, scored two goals in less than ten minutes!
Such a start, too, is too good!
Will Juventus be able to pull it back?
Quite a few people are skeptical about this.

"Lazio have a two-goal lead over Juventus away from home! It's unexpected! What's even more incredible is that this game has only started for less than ten minutes! ”
Amid the cheers of the commentators, Gotze, who scored the goal, ran all the way with open arms, killed Lazio's i-oh-orian, and then hugged Chang Sheng!
He dedicated this goal to the boss, and he also dedicates the victory of this game to the boss.
He has never left the team since he was brought to Lazio from Borussia Dortmund by Victorious at the age of sixteen. It's been thirteen years now.
In addition to Handanovic and Jose. Passarella, he is the longest-serving player in Lazio.
At the age of twenty-nine, he is now Lazio's second captain.
In the span of thirteen years, he has experienced consecutive victories with Lazio, as well as the trough of not having won a title for two years in a row.
But no matter what, he's a top-three player in the world. Relying on Lazio's mature tactical system, Mario. Gotze has always been at the forefront of his European contemporaries, and his technical stats reflect this.
In the meantime. He's been tempted a lot, after all, it's incredible for a player like him to be unbelievable if no other team is interested in him.
There have been many rumours about his transfer, but he has never left Lazio.
In other words, he never left his boss Chang Sheng.
He was willing to come to Lazio because he admired Chang Sheng, even if there was no professional contract to sign, he didn't care. As long as the boss is still in Lazio for a day. He won't leave Lazio.
It's just that next season, Chang Sheng will leave Lazio, Mario. It will also be interesting to see where Götze, a player in his playing years, will go from here.
Gotze used this celebratory gesture to express his feelings for the boss.
Some media are already speculating. Whichever team will win next season, Götze is likely to be on that team.
Although Lazio may not be willing to let go of their front core, the twisted melon is not sweet, and if Götze must go, I believe Lazio will not be embarrassed, not to mention that they can also earn a lot of money for it.
After seeing this scene, a commentator sighed: "The Lazio team really relies on the personal charm of one person who often wins, and it has not fallen apart for so many years." Otherwise, when Lazio's foundation is not yet solid, they would have been carved up by other teams...... But this heartwarming scene will not be seen next season, and Lazio is also facing the fate of being dismembered......"
There are many players in Lazio who are not paid a high salary in Lazio because of their charisma. Willing to stay. Once Chang Sheng leaves, as long as the Lazio club does not offer a high salary that satisfies them, then it is normal to leave.
Lazio now has the lowest average salary among the giants in Europe.
This guarantees the financial health of the Lazio club. But it's also unfair to those players.
If it weren't for the perennial winning team, these players would have rebelled long ago.
After the departure of the winning team next season. Lazio's future is indeed very worrying......

In the crowd, Chang Sheng grabbed Götze's hair and rubbed it, and said in his ear, "Well done, Mario, well done!" ”
For Götze, being able to get the boss's personal praise is more important than anything else.
So he was smiling so happily.
Then Chang Sheng patted him on the head: "Don't be too happy, Mario." You know I'm not going to be satisfied! ”
Gotze immediately said, "Yes, I know, boss! How many goals can be scored, how many goals can be scored! No mercy! ”
Chang Sheng smiled: "That's right, what is softness?" We don't know! ”

Juventus are also a big team, and as the most successful team in Italy, their players are not incompetent.
After conceding a goal, they were beaten with a smack.
But when the second goal was conceded, they were back to normal.
Anyway, they're two goals down now, so there's nothing left to lose.
They don't have to suffer any more gains and losses, just give it a go!
So when the game started again, Juventus returned to normalcy and launched a fierce attack on Lazio's half, hoping to equalise as soon as possible.
Everyone has a clear goal and knows what they should do, so it will be good to behave.
Juventus fans saw that their team was performing normally, so they rekindled the flame of hope in their hearts and cheered desperately for their team from the stands in the hope that they could help them beat Lazio at home.
For a moment, the Alpi Stadium resounded with the cheers of Juventus fans.
The stadium was a bit dormant after two goals from Lazio and is now feeling like Juventus' home again.
