The entire Juventus squad entered the break with low morale and doubts about the tactics of the coaching staff.

The whole first half was a nightmare for them.

Not to mention restricting Leon's play like the plan made before the game, but their own midfield core was eaten to death by Leon.

After 45 minutes of play, apart from a few long passes in the opening stages, did Pogba have any other eye-catching performances?

It's either losing the ball or the defense is out of position, not to mention that the offensive end has not played, it's all here, and I still refuse to lower my posture on the defensive end!

Everyone usually has a good relationship in private, but now they are playing in the Champions League final.

Everyone is doing their best for this championship, but you Pogba is still losing his temper and refuses to defend hard, do you really think you are already a superstar?

Many Juventus starters have opinions about Pogba in their hearts, and it is unlikely that they will tear their faces directly in front of them, but it will affect the atmosphere in the dressing room.

Allegri didn't think much of it, now that the team was two goals down at half-time, Juve had to do everything they could to strengthen their attack in the second half.

So it's impossible for him to replace Pogba at this time, at most it's a routine criticism.

Allegri then put all his energy into improving his tactics for the second half.

Juventus had already tried the 451 and 433 formations, but the control effect was not outstanding, and the attacking effect was not good.

Therefore, Allegri also decisively abandoned the tactical play in the first half, and planned to sacrifice a more "retro" but actually very suitable 442 formation in the second half.

If it really doesn't work, he still has a hand of 352 tactical hole cards, and he can always try out a formation that can play an effective role when he tries one by one!

Allegri, who was standing in the middle of the dressing room passionately explaining tactical adjustments, was trying his best to make a counterattack, but at the moment the main Juventus players around him had different faces.

The opposite is the atmosphere in the Chelsea dressing room at the moment!

It's not that unrestrained, after all, Lao Mu is still watching, but all the Chelsea starters are smiling heartily at the moment, and they all have a longing for the Champions League in their eyes.

Leon would look much more relaxed than his teammates.

After all, he is a big-hearted player who has experienced this kind of critical moment many times, knows how to control his emotions, and knows what to do at this time.

He drank a little energy drink, then quickly changed out of his soiled jersey and pants, took off his socks and sat on a chair in the locker room to feel some physical recovery.

Mourinho stood in the middle of the dressing room, reviewing some of the tactical mistakes his team made in the first half.

As he listened, Leon also considered the effect of restricting Pogba in the first half of the game.

If he thinks about it from another perspective, he feels that Pogba will definitely hide from himself in the second half, and Uncle Yu will definitely adopt a new tactical plan to help Pogba clear the siege.

In his opinion, the best way to deal with it is for Pogba to drag back and play for Marchisio to organise the ball.

Khedira always likes to get forward anyway, so instead of putting him at the back to add pressure to other defenders, it is better to just move him up front and let him be actively involved in the attack.

In this way, Pogba can at least give full play to his playmaking and long-pass ability.

If Leon then steps forward to the heart of Juve's defense to limit Pogba's play, Marchisio, who moves forward, can naturally take over the responsibility of organization.

His ability to pass the ball is not as good as Pogba's, but his ability to play the ball and score the ball steadily is always better than his face.

If Juventus were to change their players' positioning in this way, it would be a problem for Chelsea as well.

But now that Chelsea has a two-goal advantage in hand, they are really not afraid to put on a posture to attack!

Li Ang quickly thought of a response plan, just as Mourinho looked at it after reviewing the whole team's performance in the first half.

Seeing this, Li Ang directly gave his head coach a "you can rest assured" look, indicating that he was ready for the second half of the game.

Mourinho looked at it and felt the bottom of his mind, once again emphasizing to the whole team the importance of controlling the midfield and focusing on defense in the second half.

Chelsea don't need to make a tactical move first, their lead is big enough that Mourinho will have time to counter when Allegri changes his line-up.

Besides, with Leon on the field, Chelsea can also respond as soon as possible.

In this regard, Leon has repeatedly proven to the coaching staff that he is adaptable on the spot, and Mourinho believes in him absolutely.

The time of the halftime is not short, but it is not long, and the two teams have completed their final mobilization preparations and once again embarked on a brutal journey.

Chelsea's morale was high, and they were not flustered in the face of Juve's ferocious attack at the start of the second half, and soon built up a full three lines of defence in their own half!

The first line of defence was a pressing interference line consisting of Suarez and Eden Hazard.

They roam around the top of the centre circle and are mainly targeting the ball-winning playmakers in Juve's midfield.

De Bruyne had withdrawn directly to central midfield at this time, forming a second interception line with Kroos, Leon and Nemanja Matic.

The four midfielders cover enough space to cover the hinterland in front of the Chelsea backline.

And the double-back combination of Lyunga Matic also withstood the offensive impact of Juventus in the middle at this time!

Juventus have been able to penetrate the Chelsea penalty area only a handful of times after being intercepted by two Chelsea defences.

Especially in the case of penetrating in the rib area, playing a frontal attack, whether it is Morata, or Dybala, it is not Maguire's opponent!

Maguire, who has now successfully grown into a first-class centre-back in football at Chelsea, has a very steady style, and he resolutely does not grab his feet if he can.

And his frontal blocking and interception and card position confrontation ability have reached the top level in football.

A hard-working opponent of Maguire, who is almost invincible, and Thiago Silva, who is extremely experienced in defending all around, such a center-back combination can be regarded as a top-three existence.

After ten minutes of the second half, the Juventus forwards, who failed to break through Chelsea's last line of defence, fully experienced the power of Chelsea's defensive system.

That is, Dybala is more intelligent, although he is not dominant in the confrontation, he is still very brave to take the ball and hit the Chelsea defence, and also created several set-piece opportunities for Juventus.

However, neither Alvaro Morata, who has excellent headers, nor Chiellini, who has an experienced set-piece experience, have been able to take advantage of Chelsea's top headers.

Just as set-pieces are often used to educate Kane in the Premier League, Maguire has also taught Morata many times today!

And his brave aerial performance has also made the commentators of Sky Sports England excited "climax" many times.

It can't be helped, who let the defensively Chelsea not play any threatening counter-attacking opportunities in the first fifteen minutes of the second half.

Maguire has had plenty of opportunities to perform on the defensive end, and his performance has been very impressive, and he has struck a wave of prestige under the watchful eyes of fans around the world.

For the Juventus team, it was a great thing that Leon was no longer targeting Pogba in the second half.

But they soon found that Leon, who was fully involved in the defense by retreating and kicking the back, seemed to be a bigger problem!

If they can't break through the interception line forged by Leon and Nemanja Matic, they will never be able to truly control the offensive initiative.

Don't look at the number of offensive rounds, but you can't get into the Chelsea penalty area, so what's the point of brushing up on these passing statistics?

Fifteen minutes of play wore off and the tentative attacking tactics were exhausted, and it proved not wise to force Chelsea in the middle of midfield.

But Juventus's wing attack is not very strong.

Dybala is actually not a speed advantage when he is put on the side, and the only person who can be regarded as a speed explosion in the Juventus team is Cuadrado.

In Serie A, Juventus has always been able to ensure the smooth operation of the attacking system by relying on a more luxurious offensive line than other teams.

The defensive ability of Milan and Napoli in the middle of the midfield is not necessarily very strong, and Juventus can play a role in penetrating and attacking.

But at this moment, facing Chelsea, which has the strongest defensive ability in Europe, it is very embarrassing for Juventus, who can't go through the middle and can't play the two wings to attack.

Seeing that there was only half an hour left in the game, Allegri could only look at the full-back Alex Sandro on the bench.

After all, there are no speed wingers in the Juventus team except Cuadrado, so at this time, Uncle Yu can only count on the two fullbacks to play an offensive effect.

So three minutes later, Alex Sandro, who was standing on the sidelines and ready, was substituted, and Patrice Evra, who was average today, went off.

Khedira was also off the pitch and replaced by veteran centre-back Barzagli.

Juventus changed their formation to three, four, three for the last time, and Allegri is also planning to fight for his life in advance!

After such a change, the interception intensity of the Juventus midfield will undoubtedly be greatly reduced, but the ability to push and break through on the wing has indeed been greatly strengthened.

The winger was not capable enough, so he pulled in the full-back to make up, Allegri played a few cards in his hand, but in Leon's opinion, this was somewhat helpless.

But if Juventus has recruited a little more in the past two seasons and is making a first-class left winger, Uncle Yu will not think of ways to strengthen the offensive ability of the wings.

Juventus, who switched to 343, do now have the ability to barely fly on both wings, but do Chelsea need to worry too much?

Of course not.

After all, Chelsea can cope with the super wing attack of Cristiano Ronaldo and Bale when playing Real Madrid before, let alone Juve's wing configuration.

Jose Mourinho also continued to sit firmly in the dugout, and he didn't even let a few defenders on the bench warm up first.

And the facts soon proved that his calmness naturally justified.

Chelsea, who were supposed to be the focus of Juventus' attack, were rock solid on the right flank.

Azpilicueta, who has strong single defense ability, and Li Ang, who can respond to the defense at any time, are stunned to let Cuadrado and Alex Sandro return repeatedly in vain!

Neither can count on it, and on the other flank, Dybala and Lichtsteiner, who are mainly passers, will have a harder time tearing apart Chelsea's defence.

When the game time passed the seventieth minute of the second half, Allegri, who was standing on the sidelines, also felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

His preparation for this final is definitely no worse than Mourinho's.

With only these tactical cards in his hand, and the hard power of the team he coaches is also far from Chelsea, he has already completed four changes in this game!

Who can say that his on-the-spot adjustment is not good?

But it's hard for a good woman to cook without rice!

He has a plan for adjustment, but the players under his command are not capable enough.

Being able to take this Juventus team all the way to the Champions League final has proved his ability to lead the team and the ceiling of this Juventus' combat effectiveness.

Now it seems that if you want to suppress your opponent in the Champions League final and win, it will be difficult to do it with Juve's current starting line-up.

If you count it, they have been missing a first-class midfielder since they let Vidal go in the summer window last year.

This is a stiff injury in the lineup, and the follow-up introduction of Khedira seems to be playing well, but his role on the defensive end is still too far behind Vidal.

The waist is not stiff enough, and the wing configuration is also lame, with these two fatal flaws, perhaps Juventus are destined to be led by the nose by Chelsea before the start of this final.

Allegri naturally understands the shortcomings of his own team, and he is a little unwilling, after all, they have come this far, and in the end they still fall short.

But in the end he was relieved because he had done everything he could to get Juventus to the Champions League final.

If he and Mourinho switch positions today, then it should be Mourinho who should be standing on the sidelines and sighing helplessly......

Uncle Yu shook his head, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was full of bitterness.

After a long period of inactivity, Juve's attacking players in the front field began to play more and more anxiously.

But the more anxious they were, the more steady and composed Chelsea's defenders became.

In the seventy-eighth minute of the second half, Leon faced Cuadrado, who had finally passed Azpilicueta, and decisively tackled closely!

His tackle action this time was a little bigger, and he directly shoveled Cuadrado out of the sideline with the ball!

The referee on duty couldn't help but let him go, and finally showed him a yellow card more decisively.

But Li Ang, who received the yellow card warning, didn't care at all, but after taking the card, he raised his arms and shouted to the Chelsea and Milan fans in the stands!

The San Siro scene was restless again, and as time went on, the Chelsea fans in the scene became more and more excited and happy!

Leon's tough defensive response also turned on the bloody switch for Chelsea's players at the back.

In the next seven or eight minutes of play, Chelsea's backfield can be described as a back-to-back horse, and after Leon, Nemanja Matic and De Bruyne also received yellow cards one after another.

Mourinho didn't opt for a substitution until this point.

Kalas and Van Ginkel came on to replace Nemanja Matic and Kevin De Bruyne, who received yellow cards.

But their appearance was not a reminder to the rest of the Chelsea players to calm their heads.

Three minutes later, Van Ginkel decisively brought down Morata at the back and received another yellow card!

Many neutral fans in front of the TV laughed when they saw this scene, this style is really too "Mourinho"!

As stoppage time went, possession once again flew around on both halves.

Juventus, who had no more attacking options, could only try to play long balls, but Chelsea knew this well and did not give Juve the slightest chance to steal it.

Holland, who was more anxious, made a watch to the referee with Mourinho on the sidelines.

And Li Ang, who was on the field, didn't think about when the game time would come to an end at all.

He was still defending with all his might, until the last time he assisted Maguire to contain Alvaro Morata and destroy Juve's attacking possession, he faintly heard three crisp whistles in his ears!

"It's over! Top dog! We won the championship!! ”

Before Leon could react, he was hugged tightly by the excited Maguire!

The deafening cheers rang out in his ears, and Li Ang turned his head to look, and his eyes were the figures and excited faces of his teammates.

In the next moment, the dazzling starry sky in his eyes seemed to rotate as well.

It was Maguire who was holding him and turning in a circle excitedly, and the fatigue in his body seemed to be swept away, and he patted Maguire's head back with a smile.

The season is over.

It's been a great season for him and for all the Chelsea players.

A grand celebration awaited them.

And this offseason is also destined not to be peaceful......
