According to the data, in the past 8 Europa League finals, 4 times have entered extra time.

So, people are not at all surprised by the results so far.

In the 13/14 season, Villa were the best defensive team in the Premier League, while Juventus were the best defensive team in Serie A.

When two teams with the best defence come together, a draw becomes the most likely

Extra-time had just begun, and Conte had finally started making substitutions.

Giovinco came off the bench and Llorente was substituted.

Tevez was a bit physically exhausted, but Conte chose to keep him on the pitch considering a possible penalty shoot-out.

In extra time, the tempo of both sides slowed down significantly.

At this moment, it is the wisest choice to keep the goal intact.

In the 97th minute, Pogba tried a long-range shot from outside the box.

Jose blocks the ball with one hand.

Jose could feel that Pogba's shot was a little less powerful than it had been in the opening period.

Paul Lambert then made another substitution.

Lowton came off the bench to replace Ahmadi, and Bakuna moved forward to take Ahmadi's place.

In the 99th minute, Juventus still couldn't break through Villa's defense.

Andrea Pirlo volleys hard with his left foot from outside the box.

The ball flew past the Villa backline towards goal.

Then smashed on the grass.

Is Pirlo off the mark?

Not really.

José could see it at a glance.

Pirlo's shot was definitely a rebound ball.

Sure enough, the ball hit the grass and then bounced off and flew towards the goal.

While it was impossible to predict the direction of the rebound, Jose was prepared.

The moment the ball bounced up, he immediately pounced in the direction of the ball's bounce.

In the flash of lightning, Jose used his body to block Pirlo's rebounding shot.

"it." Pirlo roared reluctantly.

"Hey, hey." José looked at Pirlo's unwilling expression and smiled slightly.

Jose knew he was getting closer to what he wanted.

The game continues.

In the 100th minute, Juve attacked again.

In front of the penalty area, Pogba Pogba dribbles the ball.

Bakuna brought him down and was booked.

Juventus get a free-kick opportunity.

The penalty spot is around 25 yards from the goal, an excellent shot distance.

Jose hurriedly arranged for a wall of people to block it.

This time, the person who took the free-kick was replaced by Tevez.

Tevez still opted to shoot straight at goal.

The ball arced beautifully in the air, first over the wall and then towards the top right corner of the goal.

Jose leaped forward and blocked the shot again.

Juventus' free-kick opportunity was still ineffective.

A minute later, Villa had their chance.

Bakuna instigates a counter-attack after breaking the ball.

Benteke made a long run and burst into the right side of the opposition penalty area.

From 12 yards in front of goal, Benteke pushed a shot to the far side.

Buffon just glanced at it, and then didn't make any save.

It turned out that he had already seen that Bentekeke's shot had gone wide.

Top goalkeeper, terrifying.

The extra time half was gone in a blink of an eye, and the two sides changed sides and fought again.

In the 109th minute, Vidal passed straight to the right side of the penalty area from the backfield.

Substitute Giovinco shoots from a tight angle.

José pounced.

It turned out that Giovinco's shot hit the side-netting.

Although Jose can't tell at a glance whether the opponent's shot is off the target like Buffon did, Jose's tireless saves did a good job of preventing accidents from happening.

Conte then made another substitution.

Marchisio came off the bench and was replaced by Lichtsteiner.

Conte is starting to prepare for the penalty shoot-out.

In the end, the two sides still exchanged blanks in extra time.

What follows will be a brutal penalty shoot-out.

"I'm so nervous, who do you think will win?"

"Juve, Buffon is in charge, Villa has a few goalscorers, and they really can't shoot."

"People who say Juventus won, I'm afraid they don't know the success rate of Jose's penalty kick, right?"

"Uh, I really don't know this, is it amazing?"

"According to incomplete statistics, Jose's success rate in saving penalties has reached 90 percent."

"It's impossible, Yashin was only sixty percent alive."

On the sidelines, Jose surrounded Paul Lambert with his teammates.

"Which of you was the first to come?" Lambert asked.

In fact, he could have specified it directly, but considering the psychological pressure of the players, he still asked the players for their opinions.

"I'll do it." Bentek spoke.

As the team's first penalty taker, he has an obligation to share the pressure with his team-mates.

"I'm second." Bakuna raised his hand and said.

"I'm the third." Weimann continued.

The third player who comes out is usually a match point and is under no less pressure than the others.

"I'm fourth." Delph said.

"In that case, Jose you're fifth." Paul Lambert said:

In this way, the order of appearance was arranged.

After five rounds, Westwood was placed in sixth place.

As a result of the draw, Juventus got the first chance.

The first to start was Paul Pogba.

Jose observed and learned that Pogba, a young French midfielder, has a wild and uninhibited personality in addition to his lazy appearance, and when he is serious, he is definitely one of the world's first-class midfielders.

With the referee signaling that the penalty kick could begin.

Pogba actually walked slowly towards the ball with small steps in full view.

"Psychological warfare?" Jose scoffed.

If it had been before, Pogba's move would have been very effective.

Because the longer it drags on, the more pressure the goalkeeper will have.

But since José fused the heart of a sage, everything in the outside world has hardly affected his state of mind.

Pogba walked slowly to the penalty spot with small steps, and Jose was equally surprising.

I saw Jose bend slightly, staring intently at Pogba's every move, and then his figure stood still on the goal line.

Generally, when the goalkeeper faces the penalty taker, he will shake his body from side to side in order to deceive the opponent.

But a goalkeeper like Jose, who stands motionless in front of the goal and responds to all changes in the same way, is too rare.

Pogba walked more than 20 steps before he got to the ball.

Volley straight into the bottom left corner.

Just as Pogba shot the ball, Jose finally moved.

It's just that in the whole world, only Jose himself can move.

One second was enough for Jose to see where Pogba's shot was and make a save.

Pogba's shot was cleanly saved by Jose.

Don't worry about the opponent's follow-up shot, Jose cheered and ran to his teammates when he confirmed that the ball was rolling towards the penalty area.

Juventus missed the lead.

It was Benteke's turn.

Against Buffon, the pressure on Benteke is undoubtedly enormous.

Benteke can afford it, though.

Usually training, although he doesn't like to train against Jose, but he knows in his heart that training with Jose is of great benefit.

Benteke's shot didn't have much of a fancy touch, he simply volleyed the ball towards the top right of the goal.

It's not a dead end, but it's enough.

Buffon was right, but could only watch as the ball flew into the net.

Villa took a one-goal lead and took the lead in the penalty shootout.

The second round of penalties continued.

Jose walked towards the goal with a relaxed expression.

No one knows, at this time, Jose also has 10 cheats.

Jose prepared 14 plug-ins for this match, but he only used 3 of the 120 minutes of play.

The reason for this situation has to do with Juventus being too cautious.

The second to take a penalty for Juventus was Marchisio.

As a midfielder, Marchisio is definitely a hexagonal warrior.

It is precisely because he is a hexagonal warrior that he does not have particularly outstanding abilities.

Marchisio's penalty was awarded in one go.

He opted to volley directly and hard into the centre of the goal.

Marchisio's choice was similar to a spoon penalty.

Generally, when the goalkeeper can't tell which side the penalty taker is shooting, he will randomly choose a direction to pounce.

Marchisio apparently thinks so, too.

It's just that Jose is not your average goalkeeper.

When it comes to penalty kicks, Jose always waits for the opponent to shoot a penalty before making a save.

In the face of Marchisio's powerful shot, José brought his feet together and then made a stop in the path of the ball, directly blocking the opponent's shot.

"Damn, is the Villa goalkeeper too lucky, or has he already caught the direction of the opponent's shot?"

"I think it's guessing the direction of the opponent's shot, who is going to have the goalkeeper not moving at all?"

"It's fun now, Sanba lost two penalties in a row, and if Villa scores one more, Sanba will say goodbye."

"Not necessarily, Pirlo and Tevez haven't gotten on yet."

While the fans were buzzing, Bakuna stood in front of 12 yards.

Unfortunately, Bacuna's shot was saved by Buffon.

The score between the two sides is still 1-0 for Villa.

Penalties for the third round continued.

This time, José finally felt a little pressure.

This time, it was Tevez who represented Juventus.

Jose is no stranger to Tevez.

After all, in the match against Manchester City last season, Tevez was also one of Manchester City's strikers.

Standing in the penalty area, Tevez took a deep breath.

Unlike ordinary players who run directly to the penalty spot, Tevez's run-up turned out to be an arc line.

Obviously, Tevez thinks it will be difficult to deceive Jose from a goal perspective.

So his choice was to hit the goal as hard as he could.

Everyone could tell that Tevez chose to bombard the bottom right corner of the goal.

José is certainly no exception.

It's just that people don't know, with the speed of Tevez's blast, can Jose have time to save?

Tevez blasted the ball at a speed of more than 150 mph, leaving Jose with only about 0.3 seconds to react.

No one thought Jose would have time to make a save.

Unless Jose hangs.

That's right, Jose got hung up.

With an extra second, Jose had just enough time to pounce into the bottom right corner of the goal.

He moved half a step to the right side of the goal, then leaped forward to block Tevez's powerful volley under the incredulous gaze of the people.

The score was still 0-1.
