Chapter 363: Arrival in Turin (Daily Transition)

Turin is located in the north of Italy and is the third largest city in the Apennines.

Hundreds of years ago, it was an important political center in Europe.

Its nicknames are "Cradle of Freedom", "Capital of the Alps", "The Sweetest Place in the Apennines".

The city is home to two clubs: Torino and Juventus.

The former has an even better number of local fans.

'Juventus' means 'young man' in Latin, why is it called an old woman?

Legend has it that in the early days of the club, the conditions were very poor, and there was an old woman who often came to bring food to the players.

As for the nickname of the Bianconeri, there are many theories, among which the more authentic one is that the Juventus jersey was originally pink, and the supplier mistakenly sent the black and white striped jersey of Northshire to them, and the club thought that the black and white was also very good-looking, so they continued to use it.

As for the "phonegate" incident at the beginning of the XXI century? It's a long story.

Wednesday.

The Champions League semi-finals are coming.

After finishing the morning training, Li Kang and his teammates boarded a plane to Turin.

I didn't watch the Juventus video again, because Allegri is likely to do "experiments", like the Champions League final in the 14-15 season, against Habaib + MSN's Barcelona.

It's better to watch "Totti's Jokes".

Harry Maguire was nervous and felt like he was slowly approaching the pinnacle of his life, even if he didn't get a chance to start this game.

Welbeck is humbly asking Morata for advice: how to find a rich second-generation girlfriend with a strong body through online dating.

Cazorla closed her eyes.

Sanchez is scrappy.

Giroud said seriously: "Lee, I'll guard against that fat guy Higuain!" ”

Koscielny smiled: "Didn't you say it before you left? You don't need to retreat too deep in positional defense. ”

Arsene Wenger and his coaching staff continued to refine their pre-match tactics.

The professor is too old to keep up with the ever-changing tactical frenzy of the Premier League, but the tactical betting rate against the traditional European giants is still very high.

'Juventus have a very strong attack on both flanks and they have a good chance of pressing Bellerin's side frequently, and you can't ignore that.

"Boss, are you saying that Juventus will fight us?"

"No, it's misplaced suppression."

Turin Airport.

Li Kang and his teammates walked out of the pick-up port.

The club did not disclose the specific itinerary, resulting in not many fans coming to the scene.

By the time a few groups of supporters who had stayed up late waiting at the airport came to their senses, the entire Arsenal team was already on the bus.

The security guards felt relieved.

"John, have you heard? In order to avoid racial discrimination in this match, Juventus has carried out a number of public welfare activities during this time"

"What is that to do with UNESCO's children's activities? It didn't work at all. ”

"Let's see how many players in the Arsenal squad will be booed into monkeys!"

Juventus' extreme fan organization is very chaotic.

Quite a few people are still admirers of ***.

Security personnel often conduct raids, finding automatic rifles, pistols, armor-piercing rounds, and even surface-to-air missiles at their bases.

Many players and coaches have received death threats.

The blacklist of the Allianz Stadium in Turin is constantly being added with new names every year, which shows how well these extreme fan groups are absorbing new blood.

As for acts of racial discrimination, it is often the name of the newcomer.

'All your life is only black and white'.

The Arsenal bus made the way to the Allianz Stadium in Turin.

That's right.

Juventus' home stadium, which is also Germany's Allianz Insurance Group, won the title sponsorship.

There are countless Allianz arenas around the world.

Opened in 2011, the Allianz Arena in Turin is a young venue with a capacity of just over 40,000 spectators, but it has a high-tech exterior and infield, with state-of-the-art lighting, sound and special effects solutions.

No matter where you sit in the basin stands, you'll hear a clear and gentle sound of the announcement.

It is also the first stadium in Serie A to be wholly owned by a club.

Pre-match press conference.

Allegri and Wenger shook hands.

The relationship between the two is not as awkward as it seems from the outside world: the Arsenal hierarchy once approached the Juventus manager privately during the "fever frenzy" last season, but was rejected by the latter, an act that was considered disrespectful to Wenger by the media.

Didn't say hello for long.

The two managers soon began to give interviews to reporters.

Most of the problems were thrown to Arsene Wenger first.

"Juventus are a formidable opponent, not only as the Serie A giants, but also as one of the serious contenders for the Champions League title in recent years."

"Lee is in great form, he's got plenty of rest and I'm sure he'll show the power to change the game again."

Allegri was unhurried and soft-spoken.

'There are very good players on both sides and I'm looking forward to seeing what they do.'

The Juventus coach tried to restrain his expression, and the affectionate word "uncle" has spread across the ocean from the distant eastern country to every land in Turin.

Even if Italian fans don't know Chinese, they can think of Allegri's expression from this "囧" character.

Player tunnel.

Pjanic lightly slapped Li Kang's chest.

The two met when they first participated in the Champions League draw.

"You're doing well! Why are you so much taller than me? ”

"You won't be able to knock me over so easily this time."

After Pjanic came to Juventus, his combat power skyrocketed, and he was no longer the front core of the Roman period, but stood in the "Pirlo area".

He does not see himself as Pirlo's successor.

But in Allegri's system, he was raised like a "little Pirlo", with a lot of big brothers wiping his ass and doing dirty work in front of him and behind him, covering up his flaws to the greatest extent and magnifying his scheduling and organizational skills.

In the minds of Juventus fans, selling Pogba for 100 million and buying Pjanic for 32 million is simply worth it.

Buffon pushed aside the Zebra midfielder and briefly hugged Li Kang.

The hug of two generations in football.

Allianz Stadium in Turin.

The south stand was lit with red boat flares.

The flames exploded.

Smoke billowed out.

“CTV5! CTV5! Good evening, audience friends. ”

"Now you're broadcasting the 2016-17 Champions League semi-finals!"

"Juventus at home against Arsenal!"

"A battle that is the focus of global attention!"

"The team with the most goals in the Champions League this season has conceded the fewest goals."

"A battle of spear and shield!"

"Media from 76 regions around the world will be live!"

"Looking at the all-time head-to-head record between the two teams, Arsene Wenger has a huge advantage, and he led the Gunners to knock out the Old Lady twice!"

"Can the Bianconeri be ashamed tonight?"

"Let's wait and see!"

I'm not lazy, and the content behind me has to be saved up and sent together, so it's not tomorrow morning.
