Chapter 122: Intermission

Piero stood quietly in front of the ball, patiently waiting for the Liverpool players to line up in the wall, Piero cherished the free kick opportunity at this time, because Piero also knew that since he could not score in the sports battle, then positioning is undoubtedly the best opportunity, and a free kick like this 18 meters away from the goal is probably the best opportunity of this game.

Piero is very confident in his free kick skills, because in the Serie A league, Piero has also used free kicks to break the opponent's goal many times, and it can be said that in the Juventus team, Piero is a well-deserved first penalty taker of free kicks.

Liverpool ruled out the five-man wall and it was clear that Liverpool were still very afraid of Piero's free-kicks.

"A little bit of the past, George, a little bit of the past." Dudek was also standing in front of the goal at this time, nervously directing the human wall. Hearing Dudek's shouting, George looked back at Dudek, and now when Dudek signaled himself to go to the right, he suddenly began to remind his teammates and shifted a little to the right.

Finally, the grinding Liverpool human wall, under the intervention of the referee, the human wall finally stood up, and now wait for the referee to blow the whistle to signal the game has begun.

"Actually, it's useless for you to delay time." Seeing that the Liverpool human wall was finally standing, Piero couldn't help but sneer. At this time, the referee also blew the whistle in his mouth, Piero suddenly moved, relying on the two-step group to run, Piero picked up his right foot and rubbed the bottom of the ball hard.

That's right, it's not a kick but a rub, a typical Piero free-kick shot, the ball suddenly flew over the wall of people that George struggled to jump on, and flew towards the top left corner of the goal.

Piero's free-kick shot is not known for its power, on the contrary, Piero's free-kick shot. It's not very fast, but the angle of the shot is definitely tricky. Under normal circumstances, Piero's free-kick shot is either off the goal and out of the bottom line, then it is a dead corner.

This time, Piero's shot was not wide of the goal, and the ball was straight in front of Dudek's block. Drilled into the junction between the beam and the goalpost. A dead end in the absolute sense of the word. El Piero, a great free-kick shot into the top left corner of the goal, a dead corner in the absolute sense of the word. Dudek could do nothing about Piero's shot and could only watch the ball drill into the goal

At the moment when Piero scored a free kick, all the Juventus players immediately looked at Piero with excitement and tightly surrounded Piero. Crazy celebrations.

"Great, Del, I knew you could!" It's not just Juventus players. Juventus coach Lippi also jumped up excitedly at the moment of Piero's goal and waved his hand fiercely.

It is well known that Lippi was fond of Piero. Piero was under Lippidi. Even if there is no state. But Lippi also insisted on putting Piero there. The shot can't find a feeling. Never mind. Lippi was stunned to get all the penalty kicks that Juventus had on the ground. All to Piero. Let Piero find the feeling of a goal.

It can be said that Piero was able to achieve what he is today. This is inseparable from the trust of the head coach Lippi.

To know since the start of the game. Liverpool have caused Juventus a lot of problems. Especially the extremely fast counter-attack. It puts a lot of pressure on Juventus.

Lippi couldn't have imagined it. A strong team like Liverpool. In my own eyes, it is not an opponent's team. It was able to cause such a big problem for Juventus. But now everything is fine. At least Juventus equalised. Again took the lead on aggregate. And also scored a valuable away goal.

The score is equalised. This boosted Juventus' morale. Get a head start. So Juventus is no longer what it was just now. Began to attack frequently. Look for opportunities to break down. Juventus, which is known for its slowness and steadiness. In the case of re-leading. The players are more relaxed. This allowed Juventus to start possession again. Pass. Don't give Liverpool a chance to get the ball.

A one-goal lead is not reassuring for Juventus. Because Juventus also understands. Against a strong team like Liverpool. It is possible to be equalized by the opponent at any time. It is even possible to overtake the ground. So at the same time on the ball ground. Juventus are also looking for opportunities. Look for opportunities to break down. Hopefully, we can extend our lead once again.

However, Liverpool's defense is not easy to bully, and if Juventus hadn't got a free kick opportunity just now, I'm afraid Liverpool would still be ahead of Juventus at this time. Juventus attacked several times, but was blocked by Liverpool, on the contrary, Liverpool counterattacked quickly several times, and each time the Juventus team broke out in a cold sweat.

Finally, as the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, the two sides temporarily ended the first half with a score of 1:1 and an aggregate score of 3:2, and Juventus is currently temporarily leading Liverpool.

'Well, boys, the first half was a great performance and as for the Juventus goal, I can only say it was an accident, Steven, you don't have to be upset about the Juventus free-kick.

As soon as he returned to the locker room, Lao Bei said. Hearing Lao Bei's words, Gerald, who was still a little guilty, suddenly felt much better.

"Okay, boys, now we have 45 minutes left to give us, 45 minutes later, our Liverpool's Champions League road, whether it is over or promoted, it depends on the last 45 minutes of the game is also very clear about the current state of Liverpool, Liverpool want to eliminate the strong Bianconeri, successfully advance to the next round of the game, there are only 45 minutes left.

"John, in the second half of the game, you gave me a bold forward assist at the right time, and the team needs your offense at the moment, and of course, while attacking, you also have to pay attention to the retreat defense. Hyypia and Carragher, both of you, also pay attention, make up for the hole exposed by Reese's front insertion, and don't give Juventus a chance. ”

Reese, Hyypia and Carragher all nodded at the same time to show that they understood, and seeing that the three of them understood what they meant, Lao Bei didn't say anything, just looked at Harman and Gerald on the side and said.

"Steven, Dietmar. Now George and Michael are caught up in the siege of Juventus. It's hard to find a chance to score, so at the moment we need both of you to step up and use your long-range shots to score for the team, and I'm going to let George and Michael try to get the attention of the opposition defenders as much as possible and create chances for you, there's a problem

The first half of the game, due to tactical needs. Old Beck has always asked Hamann and Gerrard not to get forward as much as possible, focus on defense, and give Juventus a look I won't attack. Will only defend the landscape with all its might

But now the situation is different, Juventus are taking the lead again, and there is not much time left for Liverpool, and Lao Beck can only give it a go now. Strengthen the team's attacking strength.

After all, now Liverpool has been pushed to the edge of the cliff by Juventus, and Liverpool wants to eliminate the mighty Bianconeri. If you make it to the next round, you will need to play in the second half. Don't let Juventus score again, and they need to score two more goals.

"Colwell. In the second half of the game, you run for me, and the team needs you to run and bring the left side of the team alive. Regardless of Thuram, what claims to be able to defend Ronaldo one-on-one, it's just an exaggeration in the media, you have to believe in yourself, you can break through Thuram, pass the ball and cut inside to the heart's content. ”

When he saw that Harman and Gerrard had no opinions, the elder Berton turned his target to Colwill, the first half of the game, I don't know what the reason is, in short, Colwill looked very shy in the face of Thuram, and did not dare to compete with Thuram head-on, let alone break through.

Although I don't know what the reason is, Lao Bei doesn't have the heart to think too much, he can only encourage Cowell and let Cowell boldly break through.

"Don't worry, coach, I won't let you down in the second half." Colwill also knows that Liverpool has been pushed to the edge of the cliff at this time, and if he doesn't give it a go, he will only be eliminated. Thinking of this, Cowell couldn't think too much, so he could only start playing with his life.

"Michael, you need to run a little bit more in the second half, you need to switch places with George for a while, but you have to be careful, Montero is not a good guy, don't get hurt. Remember not to fight the opponent, your advantage lies in your speed, use your speed to tear apart Montero's defense to shoot, it's as simple as that. ”

Owen nodded and didn't say anything, although Lao Bei said it very contemptuously, but Owen himself understood that if he really wanted to do this, it would definitely not be an easy task, otherwise, Montero would not have become the main central defender of a giant team like Juventus with a height of less than one meter eight.

"George, you also switched places with Michael from time to time in the second half of the game, I believe that with your strong body, even if Montero wants to play any small tricks, there is no chance. You don't care about anything, just use your strong body to smash Montero to death, I don't believe it, he Montero can really withstand your impact. ”

When Lao Bei's words were just finished, everyone couldn't help laughing, it was obvious that no Liverpool player who knew George's impact very well, no one would think that the thin Montero would be able to withstand George's constant impact. You must know that even the captain Hyypia can't stop George's constant onslaught, and at most it will take ten minutes at most, and he will be powerless.

"Of course, Tudor's height is destined for his advantage in heading, and since that's the case, then we don't have to play high-altitude balls, play ground attacks as much as possible, give the ball to George, and let him take a breakthrough, I don't believe that he Tudor is the size of Tudor and can react quickly. At the same time, George, you can also retreat to the outside of the box to receive the ball, if Tudor doesn't follow, George you can just give me a long shot. If Tudor comes out, then it will give you more space to attack, and then George will give me a breakthrough and kill Tudor to complete the shot. ”

"Coach, don't worry, I know what to do." Hearing the arrangement of head coach Lao Bei, George nodded and replied.

At the same time, in the dressing room not far from the Liverpool dressing room, Lippi also continued to inspire the Juventus players.

'In the first half, I didn't have anything to say. All in all, you did a great job and I'm very proud of you. Although Liverpool is a very strong team, for us at Juventus, Liverpool is not our opponent, we are our goal, and all the Juventus players can't help but stand up and shout.

"It's not a one-point lead. It's not going to make it to the finals. After all, Liverpool's strength is still very strong, especially the quality of the quick counter-attack, and you must pay attention to the second half of the game. ”

As soon as Lippi's words were finished, Juventus' defensive teammates couldn't help but nod their heads to indicate that they knew. Obviously, in the first half of the game, Liverpool's quick counter-attack left a deep impression on the Juventus players.

"Believe in the second half of the game. Liverpool will definitely attack, after all, they are also hoping to qualify for the next round. Since that's the case, let's play defensive counterattacks. In making sure Liverpool don't score, looking for opportunities to attack. ”

Lippi said excitedly that Liverpool's strength is indeed very strong, at least it has brought a lot of pressure to Lippi. In the following time, Lippi was stunned to make a detailed deployment. In order to attack Liverpool at any chance in the second half.

The fifteen-minute half-time break passed in the blink of an eye, cheering on tens of thousands of Liverpool fans. The two sides stepped onto the pitch again to begin preparations for the second half of the game.

11th minute of the second half. Colwill lost several battles with Thuram, but a few encounters made Colwill more and more confident, and in the fourth meeting between the two, Colwill finally broke through Thuram's defense, fought a bloody way, and rushed towards the bottom line.

As he was about to get close to the baseline, Colwill finally passed the ball and the ball flew towards the penalty area.

At this time, both George and Hamann who rushed into the penalty area were the focus of attention of the Juventus defenders, but this time the Juventus defenders were wrong, and Colwill's pass was very smart, and it was not passed to George and Hamann, but to Owen in the far corner.

At this time, Owen has already shaken off Montero's defense, because Montero has put all his attention on Hamann on the side at this time, and it can be said that as long as the ball is really passed, in the case of no guard, Owen will definitely score this goal.

Just as all the Liverpool fans were about to cheer, a pair of fists shattered all Liverpool's dreams. Buffon, who attacked in time, did not give Owen and Liverpool a chance, and directly knocked the ball out of the penalty area with both fists.

"Aufeng's timely attack killed a great chance for Liverpool, and if it weren't for Buffon's attack, Liverpool would have scored this time." Seeing Liverpool's such a good opportunity ruined by Buffon, all Liverpool fans couldn't help but sigh with great regret.

However, the ball was not hit far by Buffon, the ball fell directly at the feet of Gerrard outside the penalty area, and even Gerrard did not expect that the ball would fly to his feet, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

However, Gerrard's reaction was not slow, and after reacting, Gerrard immediately picked up the ball and passed it to George in the penalty area.

"Fuck it!" Seeing the ball flying towards him, George couldn't help but curse, and George quickly judged that when the ball flew over, it would definitely hit his head. Thinking of this, George began to exert all his strength, hoping that he could step back a little and let the ball smash into his chest so that he could easily get the ball.

However, Tudor is not easy to bully, his strong body naturally has great strength, and when he saw that George, a short man, was stronger than himself, Tudor couldn't help but sneer, and began to use all his strength to push George towards the outside of the forbidden area. Tudor is going to tell George in his own way, boy, that you are far from being an opponent than strength.

Tudor exerted his strength, and George suddenly felt a huge historical one coming from behind him, and he actually let his body involuntarily move towards the forbidden area. Thinking of this, George couldn't help frowning, seeing that the ball was about to fly over, there was no time, thinking of this, George couldn't help but roar, exerted all his strength, and pushed Tudor behind him fiercely.

Tudor only felt that there was a huge force suddenly coming from George's body, and the strength was so great that he couldn't stand firmly, thinking of this, Tudor couldn't help but be surprised, but immediately after, Tudor's body fell to the side, and his height gave Tudor excellent heading ability, and at the same time, Tudor's heart was very high. Is this George still human, how can there be such great power, at the moment of falling, Tudor couldn't help but look at George in shock.
