Pogba didn't understand why Leon, who usually communicated with him kindly, changed his face at this moment, as if he didn't know him.

was suddenly treated like this by his "idol", Pogba subconsciously felt aggrieved and aggrieved, he wanted to ask Li Ang for an explanation, but Li Ang had already turned away at this time.

If Pogba is a post-80s player, then he will definitely not be confused by Leon's behavior at this time, let alone feel any grievances.

After all, compared with their generation of unrestrained young players, the post-80s football predecessors still adhere to the game principle of "the stadium is like a battlefield".

No matter how good the personal relationship is with a certain player in the opponent's team, when you go on the pitch, you are 100% enemies.

Dare to laugh and greet your opponents before and during important matches?

Then wait for the head coach and the team's big brothers to blow the hair dryer at halftime!

Although Li Ang is a real post-90s player, he is only two years older than Pogba, but his views on the game and the concept of the game are completely different from Pogba's.

If he had to draw an analogy to himself, he felt that he was very similar to Keane or Vieira back then.

The style of play is smart and tough, willing to sacrifice for the team, and at the same time loves to play against tough opponents on the field.

Maybe he can be good friends with such opponents off the court, but when he is on the court, he will only do everything he can to defeat such opponents head-on.

From this point of view, Li Ang is indeed a "remnant party" of the old era.

Even Hazard, who is a few months older than Leon, sometimes can't help but complain that his style on the field is too old-fashioned.

So at this moment, it is very reasonable that Pogba and Leon's brainwaves do not match.

After snatching the ball back, Leon quickly threw himself into a new round of playmaking, and he could not care about Pogba's mood changes.

Juve's other midfielders also quickly shrunk their formation after the attack was frustrated, and settled quickly, without giving Chelsea too much opportunity to counterattack.

It can be seen that Allegri is also very afraid of Chelsea's counterattack after last year's defeat, and this year's tactical preparation is also quite sufficient.

However, Chelsea's attacking methods are not only quick counter-attacks, but also offensive penetration, Chelsea still have an advantage over Juventus.

Look at the offensive line and the technical characteristics of the playmaking players at a glance.

Chelsea's midfield can play all kinds of tactics, after all, the players themselves have enough technical support.

And Mourinho's ability to adjust the attack is also undoubted.

Although the individual ability of the player is more demanding, as long as his requirements are met, the offensive stars under his command can often perform exceptionally.

At present, every player in Chelsea's forward trident can satisfy Lao Mu, and his individual ability is also above the top of the team in football.

Juve's offensive line is naturally unique in Serie A, but whether it is Morata or Cuadrado, there are still many flaws in Mourinho's technical ability.

The delicate Dybala lacks in confrontation and fitness, and no matter how you compare, Juve's attacking line is far from Chelsea's.

As for the midfield playmaking, Chelsea have two midfield cores supporting the attacking and defensive system.

As long as one of Leon and Kroos can play well in today's game, Chelsea's attacking organisation will not have the slightest problem.

Juventus may be able to limit one of Chelsea's core points, but they can't afford to make both Leon and Kroos out of character.

On the other hand, Juventus itself, Marchisio and Pogba can play normally together to have the organizational effect of Pirlo last year.

Marchisio dragged back to comb the ball, Pogba forwarded to organize the ball, the two are indispensable, otherwise the Juventus midfielder will be directly lame.

After all, Pogba is sometimes too sticky to the ball, and he drags back to play in the back, and the team's playmaking rate will be reduced, and once the opponent completes the tackle, the pressure on the Juventus backline is very high.

Marchisio's ability to get away from the ball in front is insufficient, and he is expected to break through and then pass the ball to threaten the ball? That's simply not realistic.

As for the face brother Khedira, the midfielder that Mourinho once loved and hated is not the core of the organization at all.

He can charge forward, or drop back to assist his teammates in sweeping the defense, and he is an excellent midfield second when he is not sick, but he has nothing to do with the core of the organization.

In comparison, Chelsea's midfield is much-better than Juventus's.

The team with the absolute strength on the court will not necessarily have the last laugh, but the team with the leading strength will definitely play better than the opponent and be more stable in theory.

Jose Mourinho sees this very clearly, and Leon is also confident on the pitch to lead the team to suppress Juventus.

Because he believes in Kroos's consistency in play.

Even if he puts more effort into limiting Pogba and counter-attacking attacks, he believes Kroos alone will be able to sort out Chelsea's playmaking.

And after losing a normal Pogba, how much more can Juve's midfield provide to their strikers?

No matter how good the striker is, he also needs strong midfield support, no possession, no cannonballs, and he is as strong as Messi and Ronaldo can only return again and again in the offensive running position.

It's a pity that Pogba, who is a little emotionally upset at this time, doesn't understand this truth, or he actually does, but he cares more about recovering his lost "scene".

He began to stubbornly raise his hand to ask for the ball, and constantly challenged Leon offensively and defensively, but the final result could only push Juventus further into an embarrassing situation of imbalance.

He couldn't get past Leon, at least in one-on-one, he didn't succeed in a single dribbling breakaway.

The Juventus backfield players managed to get back the ball were ceded by Pogba again.

There was no attacking threat, and Juventus' forwards didn't even get a few touches of the ball, so they could only watch helplessly as Chelsea launched a new counter-attack attempt.

With the counter-attacking of Leon and Nemanja Matic on Chelsea's side, and Kroos' playmaking at ease, all three strikers were able to get a steady stream of attacking opportunities.

The balance of the two teams testing each other at the start of the game quickly disappeared, and was replaced by a one-sided situation in which Chelsea continued to attack the Juventus defence after taking the initiative in midfield!

Allegri was also a little angry, and unceremoniously rushed to the sidelines to yell at Pogba, who was still making mistakes!

Pogba's emotions went up quickly, and he went down quickly.

He actually regretted it a little after seeing the situation get out of control, and Allegri's roar at this time gave him a step down.

Pogba, who has returned to normal, no longer takes the initiative to take the ball to force Leon, he has a high ball quotient, and he is also trying to re-establish a stable passing channel with several attacking players.

But he didn't take the initiative to make trouble, but Li Ang was anti-guest-oriented, and began to take the initiative to squeeze his activity space and interfere with his retreat to get the ball!

Many neutral fans who saw this scene immediately recalled the famous scene of Li Ang locking up the opponent's core players again and again in important Champions League games in the past!

Even if he is as strong as Messi, he will feel anxious and uncomfortable in the face of Li Ang's kraft candy defense at the peak of his personal ability.

Not to mention Pogba, whose mentality and temper have not yet reached the point of maturity.

When he found that even if he retreated to get the ball, he would be targeted by Leon's tough defense and suffocating confrontation, he inevitably felt nervous and irritable.

Seeing this, Marchisio could only give more of the ball to Khedira and let him go forward to lead the attack.

But at the moment, with Kroos's targeting, Khedira used up the three-board axe on the offensive end, and could only choose to return the pass repeatedly.

Juventus' attacking organisation came to a standstill, and in the end it was up to Dybala to drop back to catch the ball and dribble.

This completely disrupts Allegri's attacking tactics before the game!

Dybala's fitness is invaluable, and Allegri would prefer his protégé to be close to Chelsea's goal in the limited number of attacking opportunities to threaten.

Instead of spending all of your physical energy on retreating to get the ball and then trying to push forward like now!

However, seeing that Pogba has been locked up one-on-one by Leon, Allegri knows that he can't count on him for the time being.

After thinking for a moment, Allegri waved Cuadrado to drop back to help Dybala share the pressure on the ball.

Pogba is really panicked at this time, the ball does not go away from him, and the effect of his playing without the ball is far less brilliant than when he plays with the ball.

Li Ang was able to put down the useless "coffee position" and devote himself to defense with all his might, sacrificing himself for the team.

But Pogba really can't do it!

Allegri usually asks him to pay more attention to the defense, but he doesn't pay much attention to it, how can he accept the situation of no longer being the focus of the team and Leon blowing himself up one-on-one at this time?

Pogba finally started to run aggressively in his own half.

But his active running at the moment is not to contribute to the team's defense, but to regain the ball that belongs to him.

Leon was still staring at his "prey".

When the other Juventus midfielders don't give Pogba the ball, he doesn't rush forward to press.

And as long as Marchisio shows signs of giving Pogba the ball, he will press up and squeeze Pogba's dribbling space as soon as possible!

It was not easy to get the ball back from his teammates, but after turning his head and being tackled by Leon from his side, Pogba's mentality was a little blown up by the momentum and was brought down on the turf!

He spread his hands and looked at the referee with hopeful eyes.

But when the referee signaled that Li Ang had not committed a foul and asked him to get up quickly, an angry expression soon appeared on his face, and he slapped the turf hard to express his dissatisfaction!

Pogba at this moment is like a spoiled child.

A relatively smooth career along the way not only affected his personality, but also greatly reduced his ability to withstand pressure.

Maybe usually the coaching staff at Juventus will spoil him, and his teammates will protect him and humble him.

But the referee at the moment is not so easy to talk to.

Pogba's negativity was clearly in the wrong place, and the referee gave him a stern verbal warning directly after telling him to stand up in a serious tone!

Pogba looked very unconvinced, and wanted to defend himself, but fortunately, Marchisio saw that the situation was not good, and directly persuaded him to leave.

Leon just smiled at the scene, but the Chelsea fans in front of the TV didn't have that many concerns and started to applaud!

Pogba, who is mentally unbalanced, has a lot of problems in playing, and the scene of Juve's lame midfield has finally appeared.

Mourinho sat more and more firmly in the dugout.

Li Ang was not in a hurry at all, even if Pogba didn't seem to be able to return to his normal state of mind for a while, he still stared at Pogba to make defensive restrictions.

And the Chelsea frontcourt players, who have been doing offensive testing step by step, finally ushered in the first threat opportunity of the game in the 21st minute of the first half!

This time, it was Kroos who launched a long ball from the back after receiving Kieran Trippier's lateral ball.

Precise long-pass guidance gave Eden Hazard, who started on the wing, a one-on-one chance with Lichtsteiner!

Without any fancy dribbling, Hazard shifted direction with a heavy shoulder, and then buckled past Lichtsteiner, whose center of gravity was out of balance, and galloped all the way along the touchline!

He was so fast with the ball that Lichtsteiner could only watch himself and Hazard pull further and further away even when he was chasing back without the ball!

Fortunately, this time Khedira returned to the defense in time, which made Lichtsteiner's heart settle down a little.

"Maybe Sami can slow Hazard's bottom move!"

Lichtsteiner had just comforted himself in his heart, but when he looked up, he saw Khedira confidently approaching Hazard to intercept it, and the next moment he was divided by Hazard......

The Juventus fans at the scene counted one by one, and they all subconsciously burst into foul language in their hearts at this moment!

Leon glanced at Khedira in surprise on the field.

Sure enough, it's you, Brother Face!

When everyone thinks he's going to make a mistake, he can surprise you and make you look forward to him again.

But just after everyone has undue expectations for him, he will resolutely make a mistake and give the fans a big surprise on the offensive or defensive end!

At this moment, this surprise is that Hazard successfully broke into the Juventus penalty area, directly tearing apart Juve's defensive system!

Uncle Yu almost lost his breath when he watched it from the sidelines!

Fortunately, Chiellini was also the first to pull the edge and block the space for Hazard to continue to cut inside.

But the crisis in the Juventus backline has not been resolved, as Hazard sent a round-the-back cross directly after the outburst!

As it turns out, Leonardo Bonucci is a long way from the top of the game defensively.

After blocking Hazard on Chiellini's side, he didn't stand in the defensive position in the middle of the penalty area for the first time, but was squeezed in Suarez with a passive defense!

Therefore, when Hazard sent a cross, Suarez took the first step to jump, and Bonucci could only take the lead and interfere with Suarez's aerial duel as much as possible.

Fortunately, his height is an absolute advantage, Suarez, who is in his early eights, finally hit him together, neither of them could make the right effort to correct the football part, and the football finally flew to the back of the goal.

De Bruyne, who was actively running, rushed to the ball spot before Patrice Evra, but at this time his shooting space was already very small, and Buffon quickly adjusted his pace to block it, so he simply gave up his intention to shoot.

Almost instantly, he caught a glimpse of a figure with his arms raised outside the Juventus penalty area, and without much thought, De Bruyne "toggled" the ball.

Li Ang, who was inserted in front of him, had just stepped on the line of Juve's big penalty area with one foot at this time, and there was almost no room for adjustment, he directly swung his right leg slightly against the flying football, making a posture of wanting to volley!

Buffon's eyes were solemn, and the moment Leon hit the volley, he confidently pounced on the top of the far corner of the goal!

This is also the tricky angle that Li Ang likes to play most in the penalty area.

Gianluigi Buffon had done a good job of studying Leon before the game.

He thought that his save would be foolproof, but seeing that the football drawn by Li Ang this time went straight to the middle of the goal, his high confidence also sank all the way to the bottom!

"He predicted the angle of his shot, I predicted it?"

At the moment of falling off the turf, such a question flashed through Buffon's mind.

But no one will answer his question at the moment.

The football unmistakably crosses the line and hits the net!

The huge cheers that erupted in the San Siro stadium seemed to tear apart the night sky above the stadium!

In the "vibrating" court, Li Ang had already spread his arms and ran wildly to the corner flag area, and then happily completed a long-distance kneeling to celebrate!

On the stage of the Champions League final, Leon once again scored a key goal!

The commentators of various countries no longer know what words to use to praise this king of tough battles at this moment!

Since his debut, Li Ang has obtained personal data in the four Champions League finals he has participated in!

Even at Real Madrid, where he is not at the heart of the midfield, his performance will always shine in the final game.

Such a player with a big heart is really rare in the world!

In front of Chelsea's boiling bench, Jose Mourinho also struggled to contain his excitement.

Leon didn't let him down!

Once again, his most proud disciple fulfilled his tactical promise and opened the door to victory for him!

Football tactics are evolving with each passing day, and every well-known coach has his own tactical understanding and tactical pursuits.

But everything is the same, whether it is the pursuit of offense or the pursuit of defense, the midfielder can win the world!

This is the supreme truth in the world of football!
