Football giants

Chapter 880 This is a disaster!
"Friends in the audience, we are now at the Meazza Stadium in Milan, and we are broadcasting the No.15 round of Serie A live for you. Because there was a problem with the live broadcast signal just now, the game has already started."

"We saw Lazio... oh my god, Lazio are one goal behind!"

"What kind of situation is it?"

"The signal was replayed for us and we saw that it was Aubameyang who dropped back to get the ball and set up Felipe Anderson for a goal."

"This goal happened just over a minute after the opening, Inter Milan's first attack scored!"

"It's incredible!"

"Now, Pioli should think carefully about how the team can turn defeat into victory after falling behind by one goal at the start!"

……

"Lazio is currently investing a lot of troops in offense, but it has failed to obtain an effective threat. This is very dangerous."

"Especially facing a team like Inter Milan that switches offense and defense so quickly, they must be careful!"

"Hey, steal the ball, give it to De Vrij, a long pass, Aubameyang!"

"His speed is really too fast, single-handedly, the goal is scored, two to zero!"

"We just said that Aubameyang did not perform well in the last game against Udinese. He should perform well in this game. Unexpectedly, he scored a goal immediately!"

"Lazio, the defense is too high. Don't you know that Aubameyang is the fastest killer in Serie A? The defense is so high, it's like hitting your head on the gun of Inter Milan!"

……

"Khedira was injured before, so Klopp adjusted the midfield in this game. Inter Milan's youth training midfielder Benassi and Nainggolan partnered to escort De Bruyne."

"Such a midfield combination, although stable without Khedira, is also quite good, suppressing Lazio very well."

"After the last game, our reporter interviewed the head coach of Udinese, Stella Marcioni, and asked him to comment on Klopp's Inter Milan. Stella Marcioni said that the biggest change in Inter Milan lies in three points."

"One is that Klopp has injected a wild passion into this declining giants. They are full of hunger and desire for attacking and scoring goals all the time."

"The second is that Klopp's running and pressing system is a good match for the current group of Inter Milan players. This set of advanced tactical concepts has not lost to Juventus in Serie A, and even surpassed the Bianconeri."

"The third factor is that after selling Icardi and Palacio, the frontcourt attack combination headed by De Bruyne and Aubameyang was re-established, and with the assistance of players such as Dybala, Felipe Anderson, Pellet and Morata, Inter Milan's offense is better than any previous season."

"In Stella Maggioni's view, Inter Milan's offensive ability this season has even surpassed that of Inter Milan in Ibrahimovic's time, because now Inter Milan has more offensive routines and richer methods, making opponents hard to defend against!"

"And we can also see that in this game against Lazio, Pioli has made sufficient preparations in defense, but he conceded the ball less than 2 minutes after the opening, forcing Lazio to press up and play."

"When Lazio came out to play, Inter Milan made a long pass from the backcourt and hit Lazio with a counterattack."

"Two to zero!"

…………

…………

While Inter took on Lazio at Milan's San Siro, Juventus took a [-]-[-] first-half lead over Sampdoria at the Nuova Alpi in Turin thanks to a goal from left-back Evra.

When Allegri turned around and walked into the locker room amidst the cheers of the fans with a satisfied expression on his face, assistant coach Marco Randucci greeted him.

"Hey, Marco!" Allegri beckoned, "How is it? What's the score on Milan's side?"

Although he asked about Milan, everyone knows that Allegri is most concerned about Inter Milan.

Because after losing to Inter Milan at home in Rome, in the last round, Roma unexpectedly drew with Sassuolo at home.

In this way, Inter Milan surpassed Roma by one point by defeating Udinese, ranking second in the league.

Also in the No.14 round of the league, Juventus drew [-]-[-] away with Fiorentina, shortening the original seven-point lead to five points.

Facing the menacing Inter Milan, Allegri also had to pay attention.

In the next round, Juventus will sit at home and face Klopp's Inter Milan, but Allegri dare not be careless at all.

First is the schedule.

Although Inter Milan is playing away, the Nerazzurri have already qualified in advance in the Europa League group stage. In the previous fifth round of the group stage, Klopp arranged all the substitutes to play.

In the name of the name, it is to train troops, but in fact, it is to give the main lineup a rest.

After this round, the final round of the Europa League group stage in the middle of the week. If there is no accident, Klopp will still play with a full substitute lineup and concentrate on preparing for the weekend game against Juventus.

But what about Juventus?

In the group stage, I met the damn Atletico Madrid, Malmo and Olympiacos.

As a result, when Juventus won Malmo [-]-[-] at home in the first game of the group, they missed consecutively in the second and third rounds. First, they lost to Atletico Madrid in an away game. After being taught by Simeone, they lost to Olympiacos in an away game.

Although after returning to the home court, Juventus reversed Olympiacos and defeated Malmo, but Olympiacos' performance was also not bad.

In the last round of the group stage, Olympiacos played against Malmo at home, and it can almost be said that they have scored three points.

But Juventus is playing against Atletico Madrid. If it is a draw, it will be better, at least they can get the second place in the group.

But if they lose, then qualifying for the group stage will be...

The goal Juventus set for Allegri in the European war this season is the top sixteen, so in the last group match, he had to slam Atletico Madrid.

I just hope that Simeone's sheet army can be merciful when they have already qualified ahead of schedule.

In order to play Atletico Madrid, Allegri even kept a hand in the game against Sampdoria, and did not send out the main players to play. Fortunately, he temporarily led [-]-[-] in the first half.

Against Atletico Madrid in the middle of the week and Inter Milan on the weekend, Juventus's schedule is also quite terrifying.

Therefore, in Allegri's thoughts, it is best for Inter Milan to lose early and lose points.

In this case, the pressure on Juventus will be much less.

Therefore, as soon as he saw Marco Landucci, he immediately asked about the result of the Inter Milan game.

Marco Randucci is Allegri's chief assistant coach. He has been cooperating with AC Milan since the time of AC Milan. How can he not know what Allegri is thinking, but he has to let out a long sigh.

"What's going on?" A hint of ominous premonition flashed in Allegri's heart.

"Inter scored in less than two minutes, Felipe Anderson opened the scoring, then Lazio pressed too high and got hit on a counter-attack, Aubameyang scored the second."

"F...!" Allegri couldn't help swearing. Is there any worse news than this?
"What does Pioli do? Doesn't he know how strong Inter Milan's offensive ability is?"

"AC Milan, Roma, Udinese, these three teams have died so badly, why doesn't he learn from experience?"

In the face of Allegri's complaints, Marco Landucci sighed helplessly: "There is no other way. When he took office, he promised that the team would play more advanced and better-looking football. He would insist on playing offensive football, so..."

"Shit!" Allegri couldn't help but curse again.

The original promises were all stinky ****!

If all the head coaches keep their promises to do things, how can they cope with the ever-changing game situation?
"The current situation is a bit tricky for us!" Marco Landucci said worriedly.

Now the point gap between Juventus and Inter Milan is only five points, and they have to deal with Atletico Madrid in the middle of the week and Inter Milan on the weekend. If there is a mistake, the points will be shortened to two points immediately.

This is a disaster for Juventus!

What needs to be considered in particular is that after the next round, Serie A will usher in a winter break.

This is quite detrimental to Juventus' morale!
It’s not enough if you don’t fight for the Champions League, because the Juventus management attaches great importance to the results of the Champions League. After Conte resigned, they chose Allegri because of his achievements in the Champions League.
and so……

…………

…………

While Allegri and Marco Randucci were whispering in the player tunnel, struggling with how to deal with the current situation, in the dressing room of the visiting team at the Alpi Stadium, Sampdoria coach Mihajlovic also received news from Milan's San Siro.

"Inter Milan leads by two goals?" Mikhailovich's eyes lit up when he heard that.

Sampdoria is currently ranked fifth in Serie A, but is very close to fourth in the league.

Under such circumstances, it is very difficult to win against Juventus in an away game, but if they can draw and score one point, that would be quite good.

Thinking of this, Mikhailovich couldn't help but laughed.

"Inter Milan's recent momentum is really strong!"

"Yes!" The assistant coach on the side also nodded, with a look of admiration on his face, "Klopp is a famous European coach after all, and his tactics are very advanced. In addition, Inter Milan's players are excellent and strong. It is not surprising to have such a result."

Mihajlovic nodded, "Speaking of which, Inter Milan's scouts are really good, especially after the full cooperation with Southampton, the players brought in are better than one, Dybala, Felipe Anderson, De Bruyne, Aubameyang, Pellet...their signing ability is too strong."

The assistant coach nodded, "Then what shall we do next?"

Mikhailovich thought for a while, then chuckled, "What should I do? Of course it's going to turn defeat into victory!"

As a professional player, Mikhailovich knows very well that leading Sampdoria to the fifth place in the league and even reaching the Champions League will make him famous, but if he wants to go further, he must go to coach the giants.

And if he wants to coach a giant, he must show his ability to fight tough battles.

Juventus is undoubtedly a very good touchstone. If they win, the top four in the league is expected, and they can go further.

What's more, he also felt that Allegri was keeping his strength for the midweek Champions League game.

Let me ask, if you don't fight Juventus at this time, when will you have to wait?
Thinking of this, Mikhailovich immediately waved to the assistant coach, "Go, tell Gabbiadini that he will come on in the second half and replace Kosticic."

"What?" The assistant coach was taken aback.

"From the first minute of the second half, we must strengthen our offense and attack desperately!"

Having said that, Mikhailovich's eyes flickered with frenzy.

"We're going to be here, beat Juventus, get the three points and get into the top four!"
