Chapter 591: Substitution Adjustment
Chapter 591: Substitution Adjustment
When Li Zihan scored twice, the game became very difficult for Juventus. The centre-back duo of Merdessat and Hevedes, combined with Lars Bender at the back, was enough to put pressure on Juventus' attack.
Juventus, like Arsenal, Chelsea and other teams, was the top scorer in the team that season was Vidal from the midfield. Later, Li Zihan was born, scoring more than 30 goals and 20 assists in all seasons in one season.
Everyone knows the story later, last season, Juventus's two major strikers, Tevez and Llorente, combined to score fewer goals than Li Zihan alone
Therefore, Juventus's seemingly formidable and threatening attacking line may not be able to open Arsenal's defense.
"Juventus once again used the facts to prove that the three-five-two formation is not suitable for playing against Premier League teams, so Van Gaal may want to consider changing the formation, such as Manchester United's legendary four-four-two parallel position"
Some people say that when you are poor, you think about change, and Allegri is backward and begins to think about change.
In the fiftieth minute, Allegri used up his second substitution, the first being Barzagli replaced by Cáceres, and the Italian centre-back went off injured, which was a passive substitution.
And this time Allegri decided to take the initiative.
He replaced the poor Basque Llorente with the youth player Morata who was brought in from Real Madrid this summer, and Fernando Llorente tore his face with his old club Athletic Bilbao before and insisted on leaving on a free transfer, so in the end, Athletic Bilbao did not let him play an official game in the last six months of Llorente's contract.
At one point, he was relegated to the reserve team, only to be brought up when there was a shortage of injuries in the first team, and even then he was only a bench player.
So the impact of that half-year "waste" Yan zhòng on Llorente's form, a season schedule that came to Juventus last season was not as good as when he was at Athletic Bilbao.
So this season, Juventus poached Morata, a young player who couldn't play at the Bernabeu, and the Spanish youngster is also very competitive, and this season has a good table including league and warm-up matches.
If it weren't for the central defensive combination of Arsenal's Medsartre and Hwedes, perhaps Allegri would have started him.
After Morata came on the pitch, Juventus's attack began to improve, and the Spanish youngster was very active in the front, and he was somewhat similar to Li Zihan, but he was very flexible.
This gives Tevez more space, and when Morata is "in the spot" everywhere, Arsenal must pay more attention to him, and naturally Tevez has ignored him a little.
In the 55th minute, Tevez took advantage of Alvaro Morata's run and fired a furious shot straight towards Arsenal's goal. Fortunately, Colombian goalkeeper Ospina, who started today, did not play soy sauce and held the football in his arms with a very beautiful side pounce.
In the 58th minute, Vidal's sudden forward cut caught the attention of the Arsenal defenders. For the attacking midfielder, who was once the team's top scorer before Li Zihan, Russ Bender still did his homework, and he followed the opponent to run.
Andrea Pirlo, the midfield commander, linked up with Marchisio and Asamoah from the flank, and played the ball to the edge of the box.
"Juventus' tactical system is a bit similar to Arsenal's, with the ball in possession and crossing. The difference is that Juventus rely heavily on their midfield brain, Andrea Pirlo, who does 70 per cent of the playmaking and ball playing."
Pirlo saw Marchisio pass the ball to him, but he didn't catch it, and he saw his team-mate on the side.
So instead of catching the ball when the ball rolled over, he crossed his legs and the ball slid between his legs.
"Beautiful!! Leaky ball!! ”
Asamoah easily received the missed ball, and then took advantage of Arsenal's lack of attention to this position and rushed directly with the ball.
At this time, Chambers on the defensive end reacted and pressed up.
It was just a little late, and before Chambers could come up, Asamoah passed the ball out.
Tevez used his "beast's" muscles to card Medsat and then picked up the ball in front of the box. The Argentine centre-forward did not force himself to come, but stuck his position and gave the football to his teammate Alvaro Morata in a better position.
Alvaro Morata shoots first!
"Morata!!"
Ospina made another save, another side pounce, this time without a touch of the ball. But his palm touched the football, causing the ball that was flying towards the goal to change its line and hit the goalpost and fly out of the bottom line.
"Ospina !!"
"Very beautiful saves, the Colombian made Juventus' two strikers cry without tears!"
"When I saw Ospina make these two great saves in a short period of time, I think I understood why Arsene Wenger started the Colombian goalkeeper in this game, but it was the number one goalkeeper Szczesny"
Medesart and Ospina high-fived each other, signaling that the other party had done a good job!
Andrea Pirlo drove Juventus' first corner of the second half so far, only for Merdessat to beat Leonardo Bonucci for the ball and then headed it clear.
"There were no goals, but Juventus' attack changed very quickly, and Alvaro Morata's presence activated almost the entire attacking line, and I think after this game, Llorente will really have to worry about his main position. You must know that Morata left Real Madrid for playing time and opportunity, and the ambitious youngster is not willing to sit on the bench"
"Arsenal can't be careless now, there is still plenty of time, and for a European giant like Juventus, although they have not achieved good results in European competition over the years, they dare not be careless at all."
"Chambers is not a good player, he has already given the other side several chances, if it weren't for Arsenal's midfield trio of German duo and Ospina who played extraordinarily, maybe Juventus would have scored one or two goals"
Wenger also saw that Chambers's appearance was not good, and Wenger was supposed to lead by two goals, and Wenger also planned to let the young player hone more.
As a result, Morata's shot made his heart burst out, and if the huge advantage of leading by two goals still allowed the opponent to catch up or even overtake, then it would be a joke of a cheat.
And, if it were Chambers' responsibility, Wenger could have seen that Chambers had lost himself in the face of the criticism of England's unscrupulous journalists
It's not about honing a young player anymore, it's going to ruin this player.
Arsene Wenger intends to warm up with Spain international Monreal, and although the Spanish defender is a left wing-back, it is not a big problem to make occasional cameos at centre-back and right wing-back. With a two-goal lead in this game, Arsene Wenger doesn't want his players to open up and just hold on.
But Arsene Wenger saw the academy youngster Bellerin next to Monreal again!
Bellerin's appearance during this period was good, faintly overpowering Chambers's appearance. Anyway, if you give Chambers a chance, it's better to give "your own family" a chance, even if the media criticizes it, Bellerin and Chambers can still share some firepower for each other.
This is also a kind of honing, young players need to be blamed and criticized from the outside world, but this amount must be mastered. If you grasp it well, it means that for young players, this piece of good steel is tempered by thousands of hammers to produce 'King Kong' (steel), and if you don't grasp it well, it will be a hammer into a paste.
Arsene Wenger then asked Bellerin to get up and warm up, along with Wilshere, Monreal, Ramsey, Oxlade-Chamberlain and Nkurou.
In the 60th minute, Arsene Wenger made a substitution in the regular period.
He first replaced Chambers with Bellerin, who was not good, and everyone was not surprised by this substitution, because Chambers's table was seen by everyone, and he had nothing to say when he was replaced, and it was more surprising that Wenger actually endured him for 60 minutes before replacing him
Arsene Wenger made a second substitution as he replaced Mesut Ozil with Aaron Ramsey.
Everyone was surprised by this substitution, although Ozil did not have a bright table in this game, but it was also decent.
But considering that it was Ramsey who was replaced, everyone understands that Wenger is strengthening the interception ability and defensive ability of the midfield.
After all, Ozil is very average defensively, much worse than Ramsey. With a two-goal lead, replacing Mesut Ozil on Aaron Ramsey is undoubtedly a safe measure.
And after Ramsey is on, Pogba will be more activated, and the two of them can take turns in the midfield, and they will not worry that after they are inserted, the midfielder's interception and defensive ability will decline.
Sure enough, after Ramsey, Arsenal's midfield was even stronger. Juventus wanted to push on the ground and it became very difficult, Pogba, Ramsey, Russ Bender, Hevedes, Merdesart, such a middle made Allegri want to cry.
Although Asamoah and Lissteiner are playing on the wing, at the end of the attack, the football always has to be passed to the middle, and it is impossible to hit the goal directly on the wing
So Juventus' attack was thwarted again!
In the 72nd minute, Arsene Wenger used up his last substitution.
He replaced Harry Kane, a young English centre-forward who had a good table in this game, with Wilshere, the team's No. 3 captain!
This substitution completely ended Juventus' 'unrealistic' illusions, and although Wilshere went to the midfield position, he still had a certain interception ability in midfield.
Such a midfield combination once again embarrassed Allegri
Juventus' most powerful weapon used to be the midfield, but now Arsenal have used the midfield to completely suppress the opponent. Defeated in his strongest field, Allegri was a little unwilling.
And Juventus fans saw Li Zihan and Pogba, who are now wearing Arsenal shirts, and their eyes were very complicated
