Chapter Sixty-Eight: The Nemesis of the Natural Enemy
The Juventus players have a fire burning in their hearts, and they feel that this fire can melt the ice and snow.
Just Lazio, why bother?
This time you must slash the enemy!
Finish them off with your own hands!
Even if you have some chills, it doesn't matter, it's normal to run!
But when the game actually started, Juventus found that the situation was not as simple as they thought.
Juventus' first attack, because everyone's body was stiff, and there was no decent offensive at all. Halfway through the attack, the ball was cut off by Lazio's players, and even Lazio's goalkeeper Ter Stegen was not seen.
Lazio, who broke the ball, did not rush to a reactionary attack, but passed the ball back and forth in the midfield.
There was not much snow on the turf where the snow had just started, so it didn't affect Lazio's ground passing tactics very much.
Winning often gives Lazio's tactics one word - "slow"!
Juventus are in a hurry, they are in a hurry to get revenge, they are in a hurry to slap him in the face.
This anger of theirs can burn everything out.
If you hook up their fire and follow their rhythm, Lazio will definitely die.
But what if their fire is hooked and they are not satisfied? If they want to be fast, then Lazio will be slow.
So what?
There is nowhere to vent the excess anger, and it is all held in his heart. It's like an explosion in a confined space.
That's a complete explosion!
That's what you need to be successful.
It makes Juventus anxious, but there is nowhere to vent.
In the end they did not burn the enemy, but themselves.
※※※
Juventus, after failing to attack at first, quickly retreated, organized their defense, and waited for Lazio to attack.
But no, Lazio's players passed the ball back and forth in central midfield. I just don't come up!
The Juventus players were stunned at first.
Then they reacted and rushed up to grab the ball.
Lazio was waiting for this moment, Juventus came up to grab the ball, they accelerated the pace of the pass, but they still didn't move forward, just passed back and forth.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the passing power of Lazio players is the best in football today.
Although the field was a little slippery, it didn't affect their passing accuracy too much.
The Juventus players ran out of breath and were unable to break the ball.
But the fire in their hearts made them unstoppable, and they got into a relationship with Lazio. The thought of Lazio actually made them wait for ten minutes in the cold wind. They were very unhappy.
They have to snatch the football up front and then launch a counter-attack! Don't you like to show off your passing footwork in front of us?
Okay, then we're going to snatch your passes!
Juventus' ball-grabbing was even more frenzied.
Their overall formation unconsciously pressed forward collectively.
in their backfield. set up a vacancy in Pingchuan.
Of course, this scene was noticed by the Lazio players.
When the football fell to Casemiro's feet, Casemiro passed the football to Wu Lei, who retreated to answer.
After Wu Lei received the ball, he did not pass the football back like he had done before, but suddenly turned around. Follow up with the big ball and pass it forward!
The ball drew a parabola in the air and fell directly into the empty space of Juventus' backfield!
Because the ground was slippery and muddy, the ball didn't bounce very far after hitting the ground, and after a few weak bounces, it stopped on the turf.
Immediately after, one foot pushed it away. Go ahead!
"Messi!"
In the shouts of the commentators, Messi stirred up a snowstorm and caught up with the football. And to bring the football to the goal of Juventus!
Many people's conditioned reflex is that Messi is offside!
However, neither the referee nor the linesman said anything.
The Juventus defenders did not stop to raise their hands either.
They're all desperately chasing back!
Messi is getting older, and his speed is not as good as before.
So he was quickly overtaken.
However, Messi did not entangle with the opposing central defender, but quickly divided the football into the ribs of the penalty area.
This time it's Mario. In which position Gotze appeared, it was still not offside.
Mario. Gotze didn't stop the ball and didn't continue to dribble. He ran to the back of the soccer ball and adjusted his pace. As he got closest to football, he picked up his right leg and fired a powerful volley!
The football flew like a cannonball into the Juventus goal!
In the air, the ball pierced through the wind and snow, and almost in the blink of an eye, it was in front of Perrin.
Juventus goalkeeper Perrin waved his arm to lift the ball over the crossbar. However, his speed is obviously not as fast as a football flying through the air.
The ball grazed the underside of the crossbar and hit the net before his arm could be swung up!
※※※
“1:0!!! Mario. Gotze!! ”
The Alpi Stadium, which had been noisy before, suddenly fell silent, and only the wind could be heard most clearly.
Juventus fans wondered how their team could have conceded the first goal just four minutes into the game.
"Conceding the goal at the beginning! It's the opening goal again! When the two sides met for the first time this season, Juventus also conceded a goal at the beginning! Once, it can be said that their luck is really bad, but this is twice, twice in a row, can it be said that their luck is terrible?! ”
"Before the game, Juventus' morale was high and everyone was expecting their revenge at home...... But now what...... The goal of revenge is still a little difficult to ......."
After the goal, Gotze turned and ran back and pulled Messi, who was squeezed to the ground by the Juventus defender, and then hugged him.
Other Lazio players also rushed up and surrounded them.
Once again, the Lazios are wild on Juventus turf!
This embarrassed many Juventus fans.
But what can they say in the face of this conceded goal?
※※※
Seeing Gotze smash the ball into Perrin's goal, Chang Sheng leaped from the sideline and swung his fist hard.
That's the effect!
After taking the lead, Lazio has more capital to fight fast with slow!
Now that Lazio have an away goal in their hands, it will be easier for them to pass the time back and forth in the upcoming games.
slowed down the pace of the game and made Juventus full of enthusiasm and did not start. In the end, it collapsed and destroyed the Great Wall.
When a team loses its cool, that's what ends up for them.
Looking at the stunned Juventus players on the pitch who were hit by this sudden loss of the goal, some people already understood why Chang Sheng took the initiative to provoke Juventus before the game.
Because how can they lose their cool if they are not sufficiently provoked?
Let them be blown by the cold wind for more than ten minutes in the players' tunnel, which further angered them, and poured a barrel of oil on the fire.
The anger of the Juventus players could no longer be contained, and there was an explosion in their minds, and before they could burn the enemy, they burned their brains first.
Winning is really a good calculation!
From the moment he took the initiative to provoke Juventus. He's got it that far!
※※※
When Lazio took the lead, everything went as they had hoped, and Lazio kept the football firmly at their feet. Slowly pour your feet back and forth.
This time, however, the Juventus players did not dare to come up and force it again - they were scared by the goal they had just played.
It's just that if you don't come up to grab the ball, will you just watch Lazio back and forth in the backfield to stall for time?
If football is always at the feet of the opposing side, how can Juventus likely to equalize? It is impossible to expect an opposition defender to kick the ball back to the goalkeeper and then goalkeeper Ter Stegen slips in front of the goal. Soccer ball ends up rolling into the goal, right?
I didn't dare to go up, and I couldn't equalize when I shrank behind.
The Juventus players are now not to mention how aggrieved they are.
But the fire of hatred in their hearts did not go out because of this, on the contrary, it burned more and more.
The more Lazio can't do it, the more unhappy they are.
Because they think Lazio is simply a vile and shameless villain.
First counted them once in the players' tunnel, and now they are shamelessly delaying time on the pitch. After scoring a goal by chance, don't you have the guts to come up again?
What is the difference between this approach and a cowardly coward!
The rage burned so much that the Juventus players completely lost their minds.
The pace of the game fell completely into the hands of Lazio.
Juventus could only run back and forth following Lazio's passes. From left to right, from right to middle, from front to back, back to front......
It's a toss anyway.
After tossing for a long time, my body was hot. The soccer ball didn't take down a few times.
Most of the time, it was still under Lazio's firm control.
Lazio is also very cunning. As soon as you see that you can't keep the football, you immediately kick it outward with your big kick cleanly, or kick it forward.
Then set up a position in front of his penalty area and wait for Juventus to attack.
Juventus, who finally got possession of the ball, will lose their minds, be blinded by hatred, and behave quite abnormally in attack, without any decent cooperation, basically fighting alone.
How could this possibly pose a threat to Lazio?
Lazio are easy to defend and easy to attack.
This Coppa Italia semi-final, played at Juventus' home stadium, was on a trajectory in Lazio's favour from the start.
Looking at the Juventus players who have been doing useless work on the pitch again and again, the commentator also had to sigh: "Prandelli has been under constant pressure for so many years, for a reason...... I always make the most of all the factors that can be used! Weather, psychology, small movements...... It can only be said that being constantly targeted is a very sad thing for Juventus...... I wish them the best of luck. ”
Juventus fans can also see that their team is in a deep quagmire and cannot extricate themselves.
The boos and cheers over the Alpi Stadium were much quieter.
No one likes to watch a game with no hope of winning.
Could it be that Lazio is Juventus' nemesis?
