"Juventus are very strong, I believe everyone understands that, so I won't say more. In short, you have to remember that you are great Liverpool fighters who have come to Turin to play, to win, not to travel. Even if Juventus is strong, you are fearless. ”

Sitting in the locker room of the Turin Olympic Stadium, Lao Bei cheered for the Liverpool players in front of him.

"We are the strongest." As soon as Lao Bei's words were finished, Captain Hyypia was the first to stand up, holding his right hand tightly and shouting in the air.

With Hyypia's roar, the blood of the Liverpool players was completely boiling, and they all stood up and roared.

"Okay, boys, if you want to beat the mighty Juventus and advance to the next round, then now we have to start talking about how we are going to play the next game."

Seeing the fighting spirit of the players one by one, Lao Bei also nodded with satisfaction and said, Lao Bei knows very well that colliding with the powerful Juventus, only fighting spirit is not enough.

As soon as Lao Bei's words were finished, George and the others all gathered around, stood beside Lao Bei, and began to listen to Lao Bei's tactics.

"The biggest feature of Juventus is stability, whether the score is ahead or behind, Juventus will always play according to their own rhythm of the game without hurrying, you must pay attention to this, don't be disturbed by Juventus Our own rhythm of the game, how we usually play, how to continue to play this time."

Lao Bei first put forward the most important point, and repeatedly warned the players that they must pay attention when playing, and do not let Juventus disrupt their rhythm of the game.

George and the others all nodded their heads in understanding. Although players such as George have not studied Juventus in as much detail as coach Benitez, they still have a general understanding of Juventus's characteristics, that is, the consistency of Juventus' team is terrifying.

"Good. Now that everyone understands this, let's get to it, so let's talk about Juventus' backfield. ”

I saw that the players understood. Benitez nodded. He said as he took out the materials that had been prepared a long time ago.

"First of all, Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon. Buffon is Italian. It seems to have inherited Italy's talent for defence. Buffon made a very strong save. Even a lot of people can. Buffon is the first god of the world in the future. But I don't think so. I don't think Buffon's quality is as good as Bayern's Kahn. Buffon, on the contrary, is younger. Plus fame at a young age. Rich competition experience. It can be said that Buffon is stronger than Kahn. After all, Kahn is in great shape. But there is no denying that Karn is very old. ”

Said here. Lao Bei looked at the Liverpool players who were gathered around him, and listened quietly. Especially the team's attacking players. looked at George and the others, who didn't react expressionally. Lao Bei continued.

"Anyway, for you attacking players. My request is simple. Then bring out all the strength you have. Give me as close as possible to the Juventus penalty area. Give me close to Buffon. Complete the shot. But you have to pay attention. Buffon reacted quickly. The moment you shoot at the goal. Try not to procrastinate. If you do. It will only give Buffon more time to prepare. ”

Hear Benitez say that. George, Owen, and the others couldn't help but nod. For George. Definitely not to take Buffon lightly. George knew that. Gianluigi Buffon is the world's first god in the future. Best goalkeeper. It can even be said that it is already now. It's just that Karn has relied on his prestige for many years to occupy the title of the world's number one divine land. A goalkeeper like this can be said to be at the pinnacle level. George wanted to despise but didn't dare.

"Juventus have two centre-backs. One is the Croatian Tudor. Tudor reached a height of 1.92 meters. He is a typical centre-back. Tudor is characterized by its tall stature. Responsive. The technique at the foot is also good. You midfielders need to be careful. If it's a word from the middle. It was possible to avoid the Tudor defensive area. You must know that Tudor has the advantage of being on the ground by virtue of his height. For air defense balls can be handy. Play with a header in front of Tudor Di. Hard. If you run into Tudor. I ask you to go on the ground as much as possible. ”

"As for the other guy, Uruguayan defender Montero is only 1.79m tall, which is obviously too short for a centre-back. But don't underestimate Montero, who was able to sit in the position of Juventus' main central defender with a height of less than 1.8 meters, and Montero's defensive strength is very strong. Montero has the madness of a South American player and the skill of his feet, you have to pay attention to that, if you hit Tudor you attack me from the ground, and when you touch Montero, you attack me from the air. Montero's short stature makes Montero react quickly and be very flexible, and Montero's defense is very fierce and dangerous, making him a typical striker killer in Serie A. You have to pay attention to this, now the team needs you very much, you must not take Montero lightly, let alone get injured, it doesn't matter if you score or not, in short, you have to protect yourself first. ”

Obviously, Lao Bei's words were said to George and Owen, after all, the two are Liverpool's forwards, and they are responsible for Liverpool's attack and goal, which is destined for the two to face to face with Montero, a defender known as a striker killer.

"Don't worry, coach, we'll be careful." In response to Lao Bei's reminder, George nodded gratefully to indicate that he knew what to do.

"Coach Ni rest assured, you must know that those defenders in our English League, every action is relatively big and dangerous, we have long been used to how to protect ourselves from the ferocity of the opposing defenders."

Owen also said that indeed, unlike others, Owen is not very strong, and he has been injured a lot in the past two years. So after hearing Owen's words, Lao Bei didn't have the slightest suspicion, because Lao Bei also knew that for Owen, he must have just returned from injury and wanted to play more games. I will definitely do my best to protect myself.

During this time, Owen returned from injury, and Owen's swing was not very good after a few games, and Lao Bei also saw it. Owen has been a lot of the time trying to protect himself before he thinks about shooting. Owen has scored a lot fewer goals during this period and it is for this reason.

For Owen's feeling of not doing his best, and even a little cowardly from another level, Lao Bei didn't blame Owen at all. Because Lao Bei was also a player before, he naturally knew that after an injury. When the players returned to the playing field, they couldn't fully let go of themselves for a while.

"Juventus have two full-backs, one is the Frenchman Thuram and the other is the Italian Zambrotta. I'm sure everyone is familiar with these two guys, the world's top full-backs. So I don't ask for a lot either. I just can't get these two guys to run for me, especially Zambrotta, this guy's forward assist, even sharper than the forwards. ”

"Understood!" Listening to the words of the elders, the Liverpool players roared loudly. There really doesn't need to be said too much, I'm afraid that as long as you play football in this world, there is really no one who doesn't know Thuram and Zambrotta, after all, both are first-class stars and players who have been famous for a long time.

"Everyone in the backcourt understands. So let's talk about Juventus' midfield now, obviously. Juventus' midfield is a two-man midfielder and a two-striker formation. Tacinadi and Bayoko make up Juventus' midfield, while Nedved and Camoranesi make up Juventus' midfield. ”

Speaking of which. Old Beck stopped and glanced at the Liverpool player. He took a deep breath and said.

"Juventus have a strong midfield, at least better than us at Liverpool. The double midfielder Taccinadi is tall. can be responsible for grabbing points, and Bayoko on the side, although not very tall, is better than being physically fit, acting as a blender next to Tacinadi. The double back of two people is really a headache, so if you don't have to, don't fight with these two, you must know that one of our Liverpool games is fast attacking, and if we are dead with these two, we will not be able to achieve the effect of fast attack. So if you have another chance, you will break through the opponent directly from the side. ”

"As for Nedved and Camoranesi, I'm sure you know that very well, so I'll just talk about it briefly. Although Nedved is not the captain and leader of Juventus, Nedved has a steely will and an inexhaustible physicality, and Nedved is more sharp than Nedved's passing and playmaking. You have to watch this guy Nedved die, but don't defend closely, this guy's physical fitness is really a statement, if you defend him closely, I guarantee that he will play with your physical energy after the game is over, and send you off. As for Camoranesi, although this guy is not very tall, his physical fitness is also good, and he is very fast, and Camoranesi grew up in Argentina, with outstanding foot skills and very sharp assists. ”

"Understand, coach Ni can rest assured, I will not let him pass and break through easily." Hearing Lao Bei remind himself, Reese returned without thinking.

"As for Juventus' forward line, it is Juventus captain Piero and Trezeguet who are a double striker. As for these two people, I believe you are also very familiar with them. Anyway, I want to remind everyone to be careful of Trezeguet's header and the so-called Piero area. ”

After saying this, Lao Bei couldn't help but sigh deeply, I don't know how to do it, even Lao Bei himself felt that he didn't think how powerful Juventus was at first, but now after introducing the situation of Juventus players to the players, Juventus was suddenly very strong, what is the reason.

"Alright, boys, the game is about to begin, let the Turineites see how good our Red Army is, out." As Lao Bei yelled, the Liverpool players also yelled, walking towards the players' tunnel, ready to enter the game.

In fact, as early as when he learned that his next Champions League opponent was Juventus, Lao Bei grabbed all the Liverpool players in the conference room to watch the Juventus game, and at the same time explained the characteristics of the Juventus game to the Liverpool players while watching the Juventus game.

So even if Lao Bei doesn't say anything to George and others, George and others are very clear about what kind of team the current Juventus is and the characteristics of Juventus players.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Stadio Olimpico in Turin, where the highlight of this year's Champions League will be staged. That's Liverpool vs. Juventus. Clearly, for both teams, a premature collision will be a test for both sides. The other strong teams met against other teams this time, and all of them were teams with slightly inferior strength. But this time, Liverpool and Juventus met together. I suspect that neither Liverpool nor Juventus will want to meet a strong opponent so soon. ”

As the commentator continued to explain the history of the two teams, the highlight of the game, in the cheers of the fans, Liverpool and Juventus, two pairs of ground players, walked into the stadium with their chests held high. Start preparing for the premature do-or-die battle in the Champions League.

There is no way, whether it is Liverpool or Juventus, only by eliminating the opponent can they advance to the quarterfinals, and they have to play with an unknown. But it is certain that a strong opponent will meet, continue to work hard, and only after victory can he enter the semi-finals and even the finals.

In short, as people often say, there are no weak teams that can participate in the Champions League, and the teams that can enter the knockout stage of the Champions League are the giants of their respective leagues, which can be said to represent the highest level of football in their respective leagues.

"Damn, this Juventus is really an old woman. If the game continues to play like this, it is not a big deal for Juventus to get used to it. But I'm not used to it, I'm almost going crazy. ”

The game has been going on for more than ten minutes. During these ten minutes, Juventus continued to be unflustered. Not fast or slow, I played the game at my own pace.

This may not be much for the Juventus players. After all, Juventus have long been accustomed to this style of play. But for the Liverpool players, it is very unaccustomed.

has encountered countless opponents, Liverpool are all attacking and attacking against opponents, even if the opponent is defending or Liverpool is defending, it will only be staged at the end of the game.

But this time Liverpool met Juventus, known as the old woman, and look at the game on the field, which had been going on for about 15 minutes and only three shots on goal from both sides.

Only three shots were completed in a full ten minutes, which is an incredible thing for Liverpool who focus on fast attack, you must know that according to Liverpool's performance in the English league, fifteen minutes is enough for Liverpool to complete more than five shots on goal.

In fact, it is not that Liverpool wants to play slow attack with Juventus like this, on the contrary, Liverpool's every attack is very fast, and the slowest one of the three shots completed is only a little more than a point, and the other two are basically completed within a minute.

This meant that Liverpool's three attacks lasted less than five minutes, and the other 10 minutes were all Juventus controlling the ball, unhurried and patiently looking for opportunities.

For Juventus's slow game, Liverpool is obviously not used to it, so seeing Juventus's slow games one by one, Liverpool also began to press all over the field.

But in the end, the effect was not at all, because Juventus is not a weak team, and the players on the inside are not garbage players. On the contrary, Juventus is one of the top clubs in the world, and the players are all world-class stars, and all of them have impeccable mental quality, game experience, and skill at their feet.

In the face of such a strong opponent, although Liverpool pressed all over the field, it did not play any role at all except for the faster consumption of their physical energy.

"Forget it, it's not just you, I'm afraid everyone in our whole team is uncomfortable, damn this Juventus is too energy-consuming, no way, it seems that the two of us should retreat, at least this will allow us to catch the ball better."

Hearing Owen complaining on the side, George also said helplessly. In fact, not to mention Owen, even George was somewhat unbearable at this time and the game between Juventus and Juventus felt really bad, as if the whole person was locked in a narrow cage and could not spread his hands and feet to show himself.
