On February 22, 2006, the sky was clear.

Turin, Italy, the bustling Estadio del Alp.

As the home of Serie A giants Juventus, the stadium, which can accommodate more than 70,000 spectators, has a modest history.

In the early days, it was built by the Municipality of Turin for the 1990 World Cup in Italy and belonged to the Italian government. Four years ago, the stadium was bought by the Agnelli family, the Italian royal family, and it is the only stadium in Italy that is now controlled by a "private".

However, none of this has anything to do with the fans, even in February it is still a bit cold in Italy, with an average temperature of only 4 degrees, and the atmosphere of the fans is very hot.

It's a Champions League knockout round!

Before the game began, the spectator hall was already filled with more than 70,000 fans, who waved various flags and photos, and the atmosphere was very lively.

In the corner of the audience, the staff of the TV station set up the light camera, and the two yellow-skinned hosts stood in front of the camera with microphones in their hands.

"Hehe, welcome all the audience and fans to our CCTV5 live broadcast room, I am Zhang Lu, sitting next to me is your old friend He Wei, today's 2005-2006 Champions League quarterfinals game commentary will be brought to you by us!"

"Hello audience friends, I'm He Wei. Eh, Director Zhang, I really didn't expect to be able to come directly to the live broadcast this time, tsk tsk, the atmosphere of watching the game on the spot is really completely different from being in the studio! ”

"Hahaha, of course, to be honest, Taili has also invested heavily this time, you must know that tickets for this kind of Champions League knockout match are difficult to buy.

But, eh~! As long as we can make the fans happy and let more children in China get closer to football and like football, our mission will be achieved. ”

"Indeed, the youth are the future of the country."

"When you talk about this teenager, then I have to mention Chen Mo, one of the protagonists of this game. I remember six years ago, when he was still in junior high school, and I was commenting on one of his games.

At that time, I said to Lao Li, eh, you don't know me, I was a partner at that time. At that time, I told him that this kid has a spirit in football, don't look at his thin physique, but he feels completely different from everyone else on the field, and he will definitely achieve success in the future. It's just a pity that such a good seedling finally returned to Argentina. ”

Zhang Lu's expression was very regretful, as his fame grew, all kinds of problems that Chen Mo encountered in China at the beginning, such as what coach asked for red envelopes, and things like fake matches were also turned out.

Some big bosses want to suppress it, but they can't suppress it at all, Chen Mo is so famous abroad, and Argentina has regarded him as the greatest hope for football revival.

Argentine fans know how crazy they are, and death threats are not empty words.

Not to mention blocking or making shady moves, the big boss came to Chen Mo to ask for peace, and Chen Mo didn't bother with him.

However, since Chen Fei wanted to develop youth training in the Dragon Kingdom, he couldn't live without the nod of these big bosses, and in exchange, Chen Mo also promised that the other party would not take the initiative to shoot at them, and the big bosses also successfully got out after launching some substitute ghosts.

Now [Chen Mo's past events] is no longer a taboo topic.

He Wei obviously knew these twists and turns, and nodded: "Mr. Chen Mo is a child who grew up in Argentina, and he must have a greater sense of belonging to Argentina, but his father, Mr. Chen Fei, is now devoting himself to the youth training career in China.

Like Chen Tao, young talents like Wu Lei have gone to Argentina to play, hoping to use the Argentine league as a springboard to land in the five major leagues and get in touch with the world's most cutting-edge football. If this situation continues, it is believed that our country's football will definitely develop better and better in the future. ”

"yes, all right, let's get back to this game now. As everyone knows, Arsenal experienced a team dismantling turmoil last summer, and the most important transfer news was of course Vieira being sold to Juventus, I believe Mr. Wenger must be very troubled now, he probably never expected Arsenal to meet Juventus in the quarterfinals, haha. ”

Indeed, Patrick Vieira is arguably one of the best and strongest midfielders in the game today. With his joining, Juventus started this season with ten consecutive wins, which has a very obvious effect on the team! ”

"That's right, and he has to face his former little brother Chen Mo in this game, which is definitely one of the biggest highlights of this game."

"Haha, speaking of which, I watched a news yesterday, saying that Vieira was on their foreign Mmc social media Aite Chen Mo, saying that he wanted to give Chen Mo a good look."

"Oh, and that else? Haha, how did Chen Mo react? ”

"He posted a photo on social media of holding the World Footballer of the Year trophy with Thierry Henry and Ronaldo, haha."

"Hahaha, this is also in line with his character, after all, not everyone can do it when he sleeps at the Golden Globe Awards. However, it can be seen that the relationship between the two of them should not be affected too much. ”

"It's true that Chen Mo is notoriously easy to get along with, but it's one thing off the field, and it's another thing on the field. Eh, okay, the starting list for the game is out, let's see. Juventus' side is still in a 442 formation, and the personnel are similar to what we guessed, with Zebina at right-back, Thuram and Cannavaro at centre-back, and Zambrotta at left-back. ”

"It's a very strong defence, and it's not much worse than AC Milan's one in terms of immediate strength. Thuram was the main central defender of the 98 France World Cup winner, Zambrotta was the world's top five full-back, not to mention Cannavaro, he should be one of the strongest central defenders in football at this stage, and he was the only one who could defend against Ronaldo in previous years. ”

"Indeed, let's look at the midfield, hoa! It's really a starry day. Nedved, Vieira, Emerson, Mauro Camoranesi.

Needless to say, Nedved, Mr. Ballon d'Or '03, the number one Czech star, is also one of the strongest midfielders in football today, while Mauro was the player who provided the most assists in the full-back position in Serie A last season.

This midfield lineup can be said to be both offensive and defensive, almost a perfect lineup. ”

"That's right, you must know that Serie A has the reputation of [Little World Cup], and Juventus can start with ten consecutive wins with this team, which has proved how terrifying their strength is!"

"It's scary, and it doesn't stop there, there's Trezeguet and Ibrahimovic up front! The former is the winner of the World Cup in '98, the European champion in 2000, and the Serie A Golden Boot!

Ibrahimovic, the Swedish tower, is the brightest star of the new generation of center forwards in recent years, and to be honest, I like Arsenal very much, but I personally feel that in front of Juventus' lineup, Arsenal's backline is still under too much pressure. ”

"I think it's the same as you, but I think the key point is whether Chen Mo can break through the midfield defense of Vieira and Emerson.

As you said, Arsenal's backline is likely to be unable to defend against Juventus, so Arsenal must score if they want to win, and Arsenal's attacking core is undoubtedly Chen Mo, he must beat Vieira and Emerson, otherwise Arsenal's attack is difficult to play. ”

"That's true, okay, the players on both sides have tossed the coin, Arsenal in red and white jerseys have the right to kick off, attack from left to right, and then let's return the camera to the scene!"

.

The weather was sunny and cold winds gusted.

"It's cold."

The outdoor temperature in Italy in February was only about five degrees, exhaling a breath of white air, standing near the middle circle, Chen Mo pulled his arms, looked at the opposite side, and gave Vieira and Ibrahim a crooked and provocative smile, which caused the two to roll their eyes frequently.

Moments later, as the referee's whistle blew, Giroud knocked the ball back in the centre circle.

"Don't try to take the ball lightly!"

As soon as the ball rolled to his feet, Ibrahimovic rushed to the front of him, the opponent was 1.95 meters tall, and he was a rare tall man with strong strength, but his flexibility was not bad, Chen Mo did not hesitate, and passed the ball to Modric as soon as possible, and at the same time looked up to observe Juventus's formation while running.

Gianluigi Buffon

Zambrotta, Thuram, Cannavaro, Zebina.

Nedved, Emerson, Vieira, Mauro.

Trezeguet, Ibrahimovic.

"That's a lot of confidence."

Through the bird's-eye view from above, Chen Mo immediately understood that Juventus was using a 442 parallel position.

In the Premier League, no team dares to use this formation against Arsenal, and it is clear that the opposing manager Fabio Capello has a lot of trust in the midfield defensive ability of Vieira and Emerson, and not only Vieira and Emerson, but the tall Ibrahimovic is also more involved in pressing his Chen Mo.

"You want to push me to the front?"

When he received a pass from Modric again, and the next second, his back was fiercely resisted by Ibrahimovic and he could not give him room to turn, and he could only pass the ball diagonally to the side, Chen Mo frowned.

Ibrahimovic doesn't have much advantage in terms of speed, for a big center like him, the closer he gets to the goal, the more lethal he is, and in this game Ibrahimovic retreats very frequently, not only him, but Trezeguet also often retreats to defend, looking like he doesn't attack and doesn't let you get the ball.

The intention is also obvious, not to let him Chen Mo control the ball in the midfield, to force him to the midfield to fight Vieira and Emerson hand-to-hand!

On the sidelines, seeing Chen Mo being guarded by Ibrahimovic and Trezeguet, Juventus coach Capello put his hands in his pockets and a smile on the corner of his mouth.

The reason why he would rather sacrifice some of his offensive firepower to make Ibrahimovic and Trezeguet retreat and press is simple.

Vieira and Emerson's scramble will inevitably increase the distance between Juventus in the midfield and the backfield, and this space will give Chen Mo enough sprint distance!

So his intention is also very simple, using the pressing of the two frontline players to drive Chen Mo to the midfield to fight hand-to-hand!

As long as the close hand-to-hand combat, and the two lines in the middle and back court are relatively disguised, Chen Mo's strongest breakthrough ability will not be able to play!

There is nothing wrong with Capello's conception, under everyone's gaze, in the face of Trezeguet and Ibrahimovic's frequent pressing, Chen Mo did have a hard time holding the ball in the midfield and began to move his position forward.

"It seems that Juventus's targeted arrangement has worked, and Arsenal will not play well in the next game."

"Yes, Vieira and Emerson are both defensive gates, Chen Mo moves to the area close to the two of them, the defensive pressure on the opposite side will definitely be greater, and everyone knows that Chen Mo's ability to dodge and move in a small area is not outstanding.

I guess he won't stay in midfield all the time, but will probably still look for opportunities to drop back to get the ball and break through, and in this time, Arsenal's passing organization should be handed over to Modric. ”

"That's how it should be, but Luka Modric has too little experience in the tournament, I think. Eh, what's the situation, Modric didn't take over the organization, he passed the ball to Chen Mo? ”

Zhang Lu was puzzled, under the gaze of everyone, he saw Vieira standing behind Chen Mo, and Emerson next to him, Modric still passed the ball vigorously to Chen Mo!

"Don't look down on people too much, you guy!"

Vieira's black face darkened, and he immediately pushed behind Chen Mo, but the center of gravity was not all pressed forward on Chen Mo's back, but left room to turn around and chase back at any time!

"Do you think I want to divide the ball?"

Supporting Vieira's chest with his left hand, standing sideways and stretching out his right foot to catch the ball, Chen Mo hooked a smile at the corner of his mouth, and at this moment, Emerson who was assisting in the defense on the left side had also rushed over!

"Emerson is going to break the ball!"

"Chen Mo should run two steps against the ball! This catches the ball on the spot, even if you get the ball, you will be wrapped! ”

The commentator exclaimed, and in the next second, facing the ball rolling on the right side, Emerson who was running from the left, and Chen Mo, who was fighting against Vieira, touched the ball with his right foot.

In Emerson's shocked eyes, the fast-moving topspin ball seemed to turn into a ball of mud thrown on the wall after touching Chen Mo's right foot, except for Chen Mo's right foot trembling lightly for a moment, the ball was directly stuck to Chen Mo's foot, without a trace of rebound!

"What kind of ball sensation is this?!"

"It's too late!"

Emerson, who predicted that Chen Mo was running from the position of stopping the ball, was stunned, and did not hesitate to directly change the running trajectory and fall to the ground to put the tackle!

The turf rubbed his hips, and in the next second, in Emerson's sluggish gaze, Chen Mo's right foot was adducted, rubbing his right foot with the sliding shovel outstretched, and "pushing" the ball inward back in front of him like a snowball!

The ball was pulled from the right front to the front of the left foot, Chen Mo vigorously pressed Vieira's chest, and stepped on the ball with his left foot to complete the turn!

In an instant, you went from having your back to Vieira to facing Vieira!

"I'm going to. Oh my God! He's too flexible! ”

"It's so delicate! Well-coordinated movements!! ”

The commentary exclaimed, and the Arsenal fans instantly stood up and hugged their heads, and under everyone's gaze, in the blink of an eye, Chen Mo pulled the ball with his right foot past Emerson and turned around with his very coordinated left foot!

Without any hesitation, at the moment of turning, the left foot of the ball slid down the left side of the ball, and then the arch of the left foot was attached to the bottom half of the ball, and pushed hard to the right front!

Squander!

Spin down!

The ball was fast but didn't fly and didn't roll too far!

"Wardfa?!"

"This kind of ball can spin ?!!!"

watched the ball rush towards the outside of his left leg, and because of the violent downspin, he spun in place within two meters of pushing it out!

Seeing this scene, Vieira's scalp was numb for a while, and at this time, Chen Mo had already rushed to his left shoulder!
