Chapter 25: Stamford Bridge is starry tonight

More than 30,000 Chelsea fans were already 'performing' before the game even began, their feet tapping the floor, their hands beating to the beat, and rhythmically shouting in unison: 'Hey! Hey! Chelsea. Hey! Hey! Chelsea. ”

They seem to treat this ordinary group stage as a Champions League final, and they are venting their passion to the fullest. Nearly 10,000 Juventus fans from afar wanted to cheer for their team, but they were so powerless in front of Chelsea fans three times their size.

From a distance, the entire grandstand is surrounded by a blue sea, and the sound of the mountains and tsunami cheering is like a roaring sea. It contains infinite liliang, with the momentum of destroying everything.

In the visiting dressing room at Stamford Bridge, Conte complained to the players as he listened to the noise coming from the Chelsea fans outside: "Damn the Brits like to play this little trick, I bet their home team's dressing room is so well insulated that we're watching a rock band live from here." ”

The players grinned and their nerves eased somewhat, and although they were long-established giants, they were feeling the same pressure against Chelsea. One of them is that Chelsea won the Champions League last season, and then there is the passionate Chelsea who love the teams they support and completely hate everything that stands in their away dressing room.

This is the fans of the Premier League, they dare to love and hate. One of the countries with the most hooligans in the whole of European football is Turkey, which is known as the home of hell.

"Okay, let's forget the noise of the hell fans and let's plan the tactics. Chelsea play beautiful attacking football, and we have to show our Italian counter-attacking characteristics and take advantage of set-pieces. We need to pay attention to the mutual transfer between their teamwork. Their midfield possession and attacking power are threatening, especially Juan on the touchline? Mata, who has a strong ability to cross from the touchline, is comfortable receiving and passing. Frank Lampard in midfield is at the heart of their playmaking, he has a strong sense of the big picture and is one of only a handful of commanders in the entire Premier League who is as good as him, and Leonardo has to keep an eye on the guy and pay special attention to his long-range shots. Conte turned his head from the tactical board to look at Leonardo Bonucci.

After Bonucci nodded in understanding, Conte continued: "Gio, you have to pay attention to Hazard, don't look at him young, he is a good midfielder, a good midfielder, and he is also quite good at organising attacks, but more because his forward attacking ability is very threatening." Give him a few years to grow and he will not be any weaker than Lampard and our Arturo. Don't let him break through with the ball, block his passing and breakaways, and foul him if necessary. Anyway, the physical contact in the Premier League is the strongest in Europe. ”

"As for striker Demba Ba, don't let him into the box, don't let him get the ball when he gets into the box, prevent him from making a follow-up shot. Outside the box, he is not yet a threat to Demba Hazard and Frank Lampard.

Unlike Conte's tactics in the visitors' dressing room, Di Matteo's face was full of seriousness in the home Chelsea dressing room: "Juventus' defence is excellent, Italy's chain defense is more difficult than the Germans' impenetrable 'turtle formation'. We have to go through more passing cooperation between the frontcourt and the attack, Demba Ba and the little golden man (Oscar) you run more aggressively, tear their defense, pull out the gap. ”

'We can play long balls and play the gaps behind them, Eddie [Hazard] and Juan, you can get forward and don't dribble too much, pass too much, don't give them time to get back into lineup. Frank [Lampard] tried to shoot more from distance if he didn't have the right passing position, Ivan [Branislav] could also step up and deal with it, and John [Terry] found Frank and Eddie more after the ball was broken.

Antonio Conte and Roberto Di Matteo have a distinctly different set-up, with them making the most of their team's strengths, with Juventus' counter-attacking and Chelsea's passing in combination.

'Now the players from both sides are on the pitch, and the home team's Chelsea starting line-up is Branislav Ivanovic, John? Terry, Cahill, Ashley? Cole, Frank Lampard and Eden Hazard in midfield, Juan Mata and Ramires on the touchline, shadow striker Oscar and Demba Ba up front, Torres on the bench. Visitors Juventus started with Barzagli, Leonardo Bonucci, Chiellini and Liszsteiner in the back four, Pirlo, Vidal and Marchisio in midfield, Vucinic up front and Iaquinta and Quagliarella in attack. Oh, hell Conte didn't use his 352 formation in Serie A, but instead used his rare 4312, can Juventus' players adapt to the change in formation? The Sky TV commentator wondered.

In fact, his worries are not at all, because Juventus usually train these two formations together, and they have been training 4312 before this game, in order to make the players more proficient in this formation. Conte's goal is obvious, playing the Champions League with a solid 4312 and Serie A with a more attacking 352.

Before kick-off, the camera routinely glanced at the benches of both sides, and Huang Zixiang of the Central Sports Channel saw the yellow face and black eyes: "We saw Li Zihan on the Juventus bench, he is in Conte's squad, he is now chatting with Matri, with a shy smile on his face, and he is still a child's age." However, it can also be seen that he has a good relationship in the team, Matri is in the same position as him, and his rivals in the team have a relationship with him who talk and laugh. ”

More and more people are paying attention to Li Zihan in China, and Li Zihan is now pinning on the football dream of 1.3 billion people in the country, after all, there are no Chinese who play football in Europe anymore, and they don't want to be like in the eighties of the last century. On the contrary, neighboring countries Japan and South Korea are getting better and better in Europe.

No Chinese player has been trained by a big coach before, and they are looking forward to Li Zihan creating a world abroad. And now the domestic league has begun to show a trend of nirvana rebirth, it seems that the football desert of China has been slowly awakening, although many places still need to continue to change, many places are still suspicious, but in general, Chinese fans have begun to slowly restore confidence.

The British Sky TV commentator regretted it: "Frenchman Anelka, who once played for Chelsea and is now at Juventus, did not come to London with the team, perhaps he is not ready to face his old boss, you must know that the most glorious moment of his life was at Stamford Bridge." ”

At the whistle of Dutch referee Van Khaiyin, the match officially began.

Juventus, who were the first to get the kick-off, had a very clear purpose from the beginning, Yaquinta, who received the ball from Quagliarella, sent the ball directly to the feet of Vidal behind him, Vidal did not take the ball to follow the pace of the two strikers, he just turned around and passed the ball to Bonucci, and after a few passes, Juventus's formation quickly swung away.

Chelsea's Oscar and Demba Ba only symbolically came up to press, and the two sides just tested each other's situation at the beginning of the game.

Chelsea, who were the first to hold back, sounded the horn of attack at home to the cheers of more than 30,000 Blues fans.

Frank Lampard stole Marchisio's pass and played it straight to Juan Mata on the wing, and the Spain international's ability to thread the needle up front was unquestionable. After receiving the ball, Juan Mata quickly pulled the side to break through, and Barzagli stepped forward to intercept it. Just before Barzagli made a tackle, Juan Mata crossed the ball to the middle and dodged Barzagli's flying tackle.

Eden Hazard received the ball, and the Belgian teenager stepped on three bikes in a row in the face of Bonucci, and just when Bonucci, who had not been deceived by the bike, thought he was going to accelerate to break through, but Hazard flicked his right foot and passed the ball horizontally.

Oops! Unthinkable Bonucci left Hazard and ran towards the ball, knowing there was an open space, and just as he was not far from the pre-landing point, Frank Lampard, who had come in from behind, raised his right foot to meet the ball in mid-air and did not unload it, but swept it away.

'Frank Lampard cut in and didn't stop the ball. Volley from outside the box!! Unfortunately, the ball flew over the crossbar. It was the most threatening attack from both sides in the opening stages. ”

Frank Lampard shook his head, knowing that his hasty volley would not go in, and he wanted to unload the ball to make adjustments or burst into the box. As a result, I didn't expect Bonucci to return to defense so quickly, if he stopped the ball, he would definitely be chased by Bonucci to clear the siege, so he had no choice but to volley to try his luck.

Buffon, who was scared out of a cold sweat, yelled at his teammates: "What's the matter? How do you make it easy for others to approach the forbidden area? This is Stamford Bridge, so focus and don't be careless! ”

Hearing the captain's words, the Juventus players had to pick themselves up and take their attention away from the tsunami of the Chelsea stands.

Chelsea came back in the twelfth minute when Ramirez broke through on the right touchline, and Marchisio didn't hesitate to get down to grab the ball. Prepared, Ramirez flicked the ball to the left to avoid Marchisio's foot, and then moved his body to the left to receive the ball, and he was about to continue to break through when he saw Vidal behind Marchisio. Ramirez, who was not in a good way, crossed the ball directly into the cross.

Instead of dribbling the ball, Frank Lampard struck a high ball through the pitch and found Oscar in front of him with a pinpoint pass. The Brazilian unloaded the ball and rushed straight towards Bonucci in front, and just when Bonucci thought the opponent was about to break through, Oscar unexpectedly flicked the ball to the feet of Mata on the wing.

Juan Mata dribbled down the ball and then slotted it into the middle of the box before Barzagli got close to him. Demba Ba, who was waiting in the penalty area, jumped up to the ball and slammed into the goal with a header.
