Sometimes, people are like this, with a little fear of the chaos in the world.

I believe that all fans in the world are eager to see the game evolve into a Juventus attack, Ajax is not conservative, the ball is quickly converted, the attack and defense are frequently alternated, and both teams play very actively, such a game is delicious enough and good-looking. But for Lippi, this is a bitter word. Juventus, as a typical Serie A team, has a slow tempo, which is a typical style of Serie A, focusing on defense and meticulous tactical system, passion is not what they are pursuing, I believe that many Italian managers even wish they had 11 robots, who can execute their tactics flawlessly and without emotion.

is also because its own rhythm has always been slow, and it is stronger than attacking, so if it is a defensive counterattack, it is in the arms of Juventus, but now it is to let Juventus press out and counterattack, even regardless of the defense behind him, which is a bit difficult for a strong man, after all, Juventus is very uncomfortable to play in this kind of fast pace.

Ajax, on the other hand, has a fast pace, even faster than most Premier League teams, but their speed is not blindly fast, but targeted fast, especially after they find the direction of attack. At first glance, both teams are not conservative, but in fact, Ajax has shifted from the original high defense to more emphasis on mid-line interception, they put the interception area in the midfield in the middle line, and the defensive line is into their own 30-meter area, which has always advocated attack for Ajax, which has always focused on defense.

In addition, the Ajax players are very adaptable to this rhythm, they know very well how to cooperate in this rhythm, how to maintain the stability of the defense, and their tactics are also very simple, focusing on defense, especially the defense and interception of the 30-meter area from the middle line to their side, pull you out, induce you to make mistakes, as long as you make a mistake, I will seize the opportunity to counterattack.

Moreover, Ajax's counterattack investment is often just a few people, very fast, very sharp, with a certain amount of cooperation, but the number of troops invested is not much, more like fighting guerrilla warfare, if you have to fight, you can fight, if you don't have to fight, you run, anyway, I don't suffer.

If Lippi is used to describe it, Ye Qiu's tactics should be called bandit-style fighting.

"!" Seeing an attack by Juventus, after Piero was interfered with by Mascherano after taking the ball, he was quickly cleared by Lucio and defused an attack, and Lippi was so angry on the sidelines that he scolded his mother. But he didn't have a choice, because he wanted to win! In this kind of knockout game, there is no choice at all when you are behind, and the person who leads will always have the greatest initiative.

According to the current situation of Juventus, it is only a matter of time sooner or later, what Lippi can do is to decide the time sooner or later, but the problem is that you can schedule the attack to counterattack in the second half, but the more urgent the time, the greater the pressure on the players, and the greater the possibility of variables at that time.

In this kind of crucial knockout game, no one has enough confidence and confidence to score two goals in how much time the opponent can score, so Lippi wants to test the test first, try to counterattack, observe Ajax's response and changes, find the weakness of this team, and then make a decision.

In the final analysis, no matter what the silver fox does, it is still stable.

Ye Qiu is also standing on the sidelines, but he is not like Lippi, the Italian marshal always smokes, he specializes in smoking the kind of cigarillos from his hometown Tuscany region, while Ye Qiu never smokes.

Therefore, the two head coaches stood on the sidelines, Lippi was smoking a cigar there, with silver hair and that body, and he also had a sense of grace, while Ye Qiu was standing there with his hands in his pockets, and his temperament was not inferior, and even a little more reckless and straightforward of young people.

Because of this, the live TV camera specially gave a close-up of the two people, and then a distant shot to capture the two at the same time, as if to let the fans watching the game not only enjoy the duel on the football field, but also enjoy the open and secret battle between the two managers.

Ye Qiu didn't know that he was captured by the camera, but he would not be surprised, because in a Champions League game, this situation can occur anytime and anywhere, so he watched the game disapprovingly, analyzing the situation, and at the same time analyzing what Lippi was thinking now.

The knockout round is not only a test of the manager's targeted tactics and the strength of the players, but also a test of the coach's guessing skills.

"Let the players pay attention to the defense, keep the strength and not rush to counterattack." Ye Qiu explained to Roland. He had a hunch that Lippi was not thinking about a big counterattack now, because it wasn't time yet.

Lippi has always been trying to be stable, he won't take such a risk and fight back now, because there is still a second half, so the most likely thing for him to do now is to try, because he always has to find the main direction of attack when he counterattacks, right? He should now be examining which player's form is poorer, which link of Ajax is the weakness, and which direction can become the main point of attack for Juventus' counterattack.

Ye Qiu raised his head and looked at the time, 31 minutes, Juventus began to counterattack after conceding the goal, and it has been l4 minutes now, Ajax has a lot of counterattack opportunities, but because Ye Qiu asked the players to pay attention to defense, so the troops are not invested.

In Ye Qiu's opinion, a truly threatening counterattack was enough.

"In a few minutes, it should be almost!" Ye Qiu said a little to himself.

Every game of any team is going back and forth between fast and slow, switching between offense and defense, offense and defense, no team can maintain a fast pace for a long time, because the physical fitness can't keep up, and it is impossible to maintain a slow pace for a long time, because slow can't win at all, and the same is true for offense and defense.

Juventus can't spend all their energy in the first half, the second half is the time for Lippi to focus on the counterattack, the first half is just brewing and warm-up, so he will stop after attacking for a while, and the investigation is almost done. It should be around 35 minutes to 40 minutes. According to the different physical conditions of each team, Ye Qiu could not clearly predict the opponent's situation, he could only give a rough idea, but he could determine his judgment according to the situation of the game at that time.

But he knows very well that Lippi's brewing and warm-up cannot be maintained for a long time, and now what is in front of Ye Qiu is an opportunity, as long as Juventus retreats, Ajax will immediately give a counterattack, launch a round of attack, and attack directly to the end of the first half, not giving Juventus a chance to slow down the rhythm. Regardless of whether you score or not, there are at least two benefits. The first is to go into halftime with the morale that overpowers the opponent, and the second is to consume more physical energy of the opponent and get a more comfortable environment for the second half.

Thinking of this, Ye Qiu turned his head sideways, looked at the linpi who was smoking a cigar, and smiled, "It must make you angry!"

Antonio Conte will soon be 35 years old.

Unknowingly, he has been playing in Serie A at Juventus for more than ten years, and he can be said to have experienced the most glorious years of Juventus, from reaching the Champions League final for three consecutive years to winning the cup, to the re-emergence after a slight decline in the new century, Conte has accompanied the ups and downs of the Bianconeri and experienced countless storms and waves.

In Italy, the south has always hated the north, and the same is true in football, so at the turn of the century, the rise of the two southern teams of Roma and Lazio sparked a counterattack in the north with Juventus, AC Milan and Inter Milan, all of which came from the long-standing confrontation between the north and the south.

But for Conte, who comes from the south, he has integrated into the life of Turin in the north, as well as into Juventus, where he has lived for more than ten years, and he is willing to fight for the Bianconeri anytime and anywhere, and he will do his best in every battle.

But he is old, although he can work hard to maintain his condition, but his physical fitness is not to say that he can maintain it if he wants to, and his 35-year-old body cannot be compared with a young man in his twenties, so in the past two years, he has begun to focus more on substitutes, and the main midfielder is Davis.

The Dutch midfielder is definitely one of the best midfielders in the world today, and no one knows his team-mate better than Antonio Conte, but he is unlucky that he is at odds with Lippi, but even if Lippi tries Tudor and Tacchinadi, he has never been able to replace Davies's role in this team. This game is on Conte! Conte felt very depressed after conceding the goal not long after the opening, and then launched a fast-paced pounce with the team on Ajax, because he was in the midfield, Lippi's requirements for Conte were also able to go up and down, so Conte ran a lot of fast and physical consumption in this fast-paced swoop time.

Fortunately, when he was a little overwhelmed, Lippi asked the team to take a proper break.

This made Conte feel relieved, not that he wanted to slack off and not want an equaliser, but that his body really couldn't keep up.

Football is different from other sports, running back and forth on the football field is more physically demanding, especially in the fast-paced attack and defense, fast back and forth running is simply a kind of torture for people with slightly less physical fitness, and it will not take you a few minutes to completely rest the food.

As soon as he rested, Conte gasped for air, his feet were as if they had been filled with lead, very heavy, and he always felt that his muscles were sore, these were all symptoms of excessive physical exertion, and Conte was used to it.

Raising his head and looking at Nedved who was still running in front of him, Conte couldn't help but flash a look of admiration, now the whole team is probably the only one who can still run like this, he seems to have inexhaustible physical energy.

Oh, there's also a Davis, this guy is known as a wild boar, and his physical fitness is also quite good, and what's even more rare is that he is very good at cooperating with his teammates, but not just a defender and destroyer in the impression of fans, I really don't understand why Lippi doesn't need him, let him sit on the bench and enjoy the cool.

But Nedved was lonely in the end, and when Juventus began to consciously want to slow down the tempo, Nedved couldn't afford to storm the storm in front of him alone, and soon fell into the trap of Mascherano and Arteta.

Conte was the first to realise this and immediately ran a few steps forward, obviously slower than when he was in good shape, but Nedved saw him and immediately knocked the ball back.

Stopping the ball, Conte also wanted to watch the situation, but then Sneijder was very quick to get close, running over to press, and there was an Ibrahimovic behind him between the two central defenders and Conte.

Conte realized that Sneijder was not good, he knew very well that he was not fit enough, and then swept his right side with the corner of his eye, Camoranesi had no one to defend, so he passed the ball to the right as soon as possible, but as soon as the ball was out of his control, Conte was shocked.

Because at the moment when he just passed the ball, he saw Robben quickly pass past Camoranesi, intercept the ball in advance, and vigorously go forward, and the person also chased after him at a very fast speed, and directly counterattacked on the spot.

Conte was so frightened that he didn't even think about it, and wanted to rush over to intercept Robben, but his legs couldn't move away, and his speed couldn't be fast at all, and when he felt that he had caught up with Robben, he found that the ball was no longer at Robben's feet, and his teammate Thuram turned around and looked behind him in a daze.

"Damn Ajax !!" Conte scolded a little broken.

It turned out that after Robben intercepted and counterattacked on the spot, everyone in Juventus was taken aback, and the Dutchman advanced very fast with the ball, and rushed to the front of the defense line at once, Thuram immediately went up without hesitation, but Robben made a diagonal pass to hit Montero's back.

Van der Vaart was like a gust of wind, unceremonious to his good friend's courtesy, rushed past Montero, and after winning the ball, he faked Buffon and scored with his left foot, 2:0111

The entire Arena was a sea of celebration, and everyone knew exactly what this goal meant for Juventus, meaning that they had already trailed Ajax by three goals on aggregate, and they had to chase three goals in a row to beat Ajax in the remaining time.

What a shocking super-reversal that had to be?

In the face of this group of Ajax, who are counterattacking so quickly and so sharply, can it be done?

Even Conte, who is well-informed and experienced, can't help but cover his face when he sees Van der Vaart excitedly raise his arms and rush in front of him, because this goal came from his passing error, although he didn't mean it, no one will care what he misses.

The poor veteran was a little afraid to face his team-mates, as he knew exactly what would await Juventus next.

If the first goal made Lippi angry, then the second goal, Lippi was more remorseful.

Many people may think that this is Conte's fault, but Lippi is clear that Conte is nothing more than his scapegoat.

If it weren't for Conte, but Davies, such a scene would not have happened, and the Dutchman is more physical than Conte.

After the acquisition of Davies, Juventus's midfield has always had such and such problems, perhaps to paraphrase the old saying, there are some players, when he is there you don't realize how useful he is, and you don't feel how irreplaceable he is, but once you lose him, you will realize how useful he is.

Of course, Lippi continues to stubbornly refrain from admitting his mistakes, as Juventus have a clear advantage in Serie A.

Perhaps it should be said that taking Davies is more for his own authority and for the overall situation, but if Davies is allowed to go, maybe Juventus can perform better and better in some key games, but it is a weakening of Lippi's prestige.

The feud dates back to when Lippi returned to Juventus, when the first thing Lippi did was to change the team's tactics to 442, and considering the midfield arrangement of J442, he decided to take Davies, which made the Dutchman furious.

Subsequently, although Lippi changed the formation and played 4231 and 4312, there was never a place for Davies in his team, and it was revealed by the media at the beginning of this season that Davies almost beat Lippi in the locker room, and Lippi and general manager Moggie also declared that they must abolish the Dutchman to set an example.

It can be said that now everyone knows that Edgar Davies is leaving, and there is no shortage of teams interested in Dutch wild boars, and Italian teams such as Roma and Inter Milan want to get him, but Juventus has never let up on this issue, so Davies did not end up in the winter break. It's hard to say who's right and who's wrong in this kind of thing, Lippi wants to establish prestige, Davis wants the main position, both of them are from their own interests and perspectives, and they can't say wrong, they can only say that the two met a little offended.

Because of this series of grievances, Lippi's remorse was only a flash, and he didn't think that Davis could turn the situation around for the team, so remorse became a completely unnecessary move.

For the current Juventus, there is no way back, Lippi and the team have only one choice, attack in the second half!

But Ye Qiu obviously also grasped Juventus's idea very accurately, he did not consider retreating at all after the team scored, but continued to adopt a strong attack strategy against Juventus, on the one hand, to further hit Juventus's morale, on the other hand, in order to wear down the opponent's physical strength, and at the same time establish his own advantage.

For Ye Qiu's calculation, Lippi did not give-for-tat, he chose to temporarily retreat, so Juventus began to consciously shrink the defense, allowing Ajax to attack, and the Bianconeri obviously intended to drag the score of 0:2 to the end of halftime.

But Lippi also knows very well that the second half is very, very difficult for Juventus, because they not only have to break through Ajax's goal and score 3 goals, but also have to watch out for Ajax's counterattack, Ye Qiu will definitely make targeted arrangements for Juventus' counterattack.

It's very simple, the whole world knows that Juventus can only counterattack, if he doesn't know how to make targeted arrangements, then he is a fool.

In this unfavourable situation, the chances of Juventus reversing are slim to none.

However, now everyone in the team is supported by Lippi's breath, and they can't be killed or killed!
