What is a destructive midfielder?

Chapter 368 Wenger is the nemesis of the Serie A team? (daily transition)

The home dressing room at the Allianz Stadium in Turin is decorated in a very avant-garde style.

The players seem to be back in a space capsule.

Regardless of the score, Alves relaxes at half-time with music and samba dancing.

Haven't shaken yet.

The music stopped abruptly.

Bonucci turned off the stereo and said, "We're falling behind."

"You don't need to remind me, I won three big ear cups in Barcelona!"

Alves was a little angry, it was too uncomfortable to be stopped when he was in a relaxed state.

Seeing that the conflict was about to intensify, Chiellini and Buffon quickly pulled the two away.

clap clap clap!
Allegri clapped his palms and tapped the tactical board.

He will not be too close to the players, let alone how the conflicts are caused.

As if nothing happened, he started the tactical adjustment in the second half.

Arsenal dressing room.

After Boulder reviewed the tactical details of the first half, he immediately filled the players with chicken soup.

"We have gone through hardships all the way to the stage of the semi-finals."

"Never let up!"

"Arsenal is on the road to the championship, and there are still glory and dreams waiting for us!"

Welbeck, Xhaka, Sanchez and others were full of excitement.

Cech carefully wrapped the special finger bandages, which is also one of the basic elements of the famous stunt of "receiving heavy artillery with one hand".

in the corner.

Wenger straightened Li Kang's collar and said patiently: "No matter what kind of tactical changes Allegri makes, he can't break away from the traditional framework of Italian football. His tactical support still relies on the backcourt."

"For the Italian tradition, no matter how they change, we don't need to study how to break the game, we just need to play our own content well."

Li Kang nodded seriously.

The referee team led the players from both sides back to the pitch.

At the Allianz Stadium in Turin, fans on both sides quickly entered the state of watching the game.

There was a lot of noise.

"Good evening, audience friends, welcome back."

"Now the semi-final of the UEFA Champions League is live for you. Juventus is playing against Arsenal at home. The temporary score is 0:1!"

"Both sides have not made substitution adjustments for the time being."

"What changes will happen in the second half? Let us wait and see!"

beep!
Accompanied by a whistle.

The second half of the game officially started.

Arsenal ball.

Giroud kicks off and passes back to Li Kang.

The midfield and frontcourts of the formations of the two sides gradually overlapped.

Mandzukic has a strong desire to win and lose. He actively presses and presses on the field and runs wildly.

Higuain looks a lot fatter.

He has a strong learning ability. He debuted as a winger, changed to a winger after landing in La Liga, and then transformed into a point-grabbing forward, and gradually developed into an all-around center forward.

It's a pity that he suffered serious injuries in the 2010-11 season, which caused the sequelae of the lumbar disc, and his ability to play the ball plummeted, so he had to gain weight and transform.

During the Naples period, he was fed cakes by the three little madmen of death, and fed a record-breaking Serie A Golden Boot, a super shooter.

After coming to Juventus, he worked diligently, no longer pursued personal data, and took on the important task of tactical fulcrum without complaint.

time flies.

Arsenal did not push forward forcefully, Li Kang and Cazorla and the retreating Morata formed a triangle transmission hub.

The three teammates of the Spanish national team have a tacit understanding and can resolve Juventus' midfield strangulation most of the time.

There are also times when it cannot be resolved.

The 55th minute of the game.

"Morata is too comprehensive, very flexible on his feet, he retreats from the front line, is it?"

"The ball is lost!"

Chiellini rushed from the backcourt, switched to the "false midfielder" form again, and assisted Khedira to complete the steal!

The football was handed to Mandzukic in the frontcourt in an instant.

at the same time.

Arsenal's midfield defense quickly moved back.

"The Bianconeri's counterattack!"

"coming!"

"."

"Unfortunately, the speed is too slow!"

"There is no impact."

"The ball is going to be lost."

Juventus' offensive group in the frontcourt does not have a fast horse.

There is no way to break through the area between the two lines of Arsenal in the first place.

The high defensive line built by Maguire, Mertesacker, and Koscielny easily overlapped with the midfield teammates, successfully compressing Juventus's central counterattack space.

Mandzukic had to play the ball wide.
In the end, it was intercepted by Xhaka and Maguire together.

Fans of the Bianconeri couldn't help sighing.

In the commentary seat, Piero frowns.

He suddenly remembered when he was young: Wenger is simply a nightmare for Serie A teams. Since Arsenal lost to Fiorentina in the 99-00 season, Arsenal have eliminated Lazio, Inter Milan, AC Milan, and Rome in the Champions League for many years. .

Juventus?

Worse.

Eliminated twice by the Armory.

"Wenger's adjustment in the second half is obvious. With a one-goal lead, he controlled the ball in our half! The back line did not press the center circle! The area between the two lines was deliberately left."

"Juventus has no efficient counter-attackers on the field. If they fall into Arsenal's trap, the player's physical strength will be exhausted. The most difficult enemy in Italian football, Wenger!"

"Allegri must hurry up and make adjustments!"

Why is Serie A not rich in wingers at all, but has become the cradle of No. [-] and a half?

The existence of Maradona and Platini gives a development direction.

In the late 80s and early 90s, Baggio's reputation gradually rose.

Subsequently, Signori, Chiesa Sr., Totti, Divaio, Miccoli, Del Piero and other younger generations followed suit.

They put all the attribute points into pass, control, and shooting, and added three skill points.

The main reason is the tactical soil.

There is a saying: No. [-] and a half is a position forced out by the Italian defense line.

The times are developing.

Capello raised the banner of "anti-nine and a half".

When he coached the Milan youth team, he transformed Albertini, the first "defender waist".

Then came Ancelotti.

The young Fatty An believes: "Football in the future does not need a number nine and a half."

When coaching Parma, he drove away Zola and then rejected Baggio.

In the early days of becoming the coach of Milan, he regretted: "My ideas are beyond this era."

The 68th minute of the game.

Arsenal took the fight to the 30-metre zone in the Juventus half.

The phantom of blue-black No. 10 in Li Kang's vision became clearer.

"Cazorla's large-scale transfer."

"Monreal caught the ball near the bottom line on the left and couldn't pass Barzagli, so he had to pass the ball quickly."

"Hey?"

"Pay attention. At this time, Li Kang is in the area between the two lines of Juventus' 4-4 formation structure. He is out of touch with the midfielder and is behind Giroud and Morata."

Monreal had no choice but to pass the ball back.

Xhaka stepped forward to respond, after a little observation, he gave up the idea of ​​​​a long-range shot, and knocked the ball horizontally to the middle before Alves went up to grab it.

Cazorla suddenly accelerated forward and touched the ball with one foot.

The football penetrated the midfield barrier formed by Pjanic and Khedira like a scalpel.

"Danger!"

Li Kang was at the front of the penalty area at this time, and Bonucci quickly posted over.

The phantom of the blue and black Baggio raised his left foot.

The actions of one person and one shadow coincide.

The ball stuck to the instep of the Arsenal number 10 as if attracted by a magnet.

at the same time.

Giroud and Morata started crossing positions, holding down the remaining strength of Juventus' defense.

Bonucci's reaction was quick.

Although most of the skill points are added to passing, his defensive interception ability has also reached the first-class level in Europe.

Stretch your feet instantly.

The football seemed to have been given life and passed through his crotch.

Li Kang also completed his turn.

"grace!"

"Flowing clouds and flowing water!"

"It's natural!"

"It seems that there are no defensive players around him, and every action step seems to be completed without interference!"

"It's over!"

"Face Buffon!"

"The angle of the shot is very small, Chiellini's block is very timely!"

Snapped!
The phantom of the blue-black Baggio dissipated.

Li Kang rubbed his left foot.

The football rose from the ground, pulled out a wonderful parabola, and headed towards the Juventus goal.

Buffon felt that all this was too familiar, as if he was back in his youth, facing the magician with braids!

Leaping up, the blue glove barely touched the football.

Accompanied by overwhelming exclamation.

The football flew off the baseline.

"oops."

"What a pity!"

"If Li Kang scores this goal, it will put Juventus in a desperate situation!"

"Great save by Buffon."

"Arsenal corner chance."

Buffon patted Li Kang's shoulder with lingering fear.

so similar.

My 17-year-old Serie A fame battle was to seal the red and black Baggio and Weah.

Fortunately.

Baggio in the Inter Milan era could only threaten himself with world waves and ground cuts.

Still all too familiar.

Buffon can guess the several ways of Baggio's close-range shots with his eyes closed.

sidelines.

Wenger and Boulder applaud loudly.

The other side.

Allegri clasped Cuadrado's shoulder and kept whispering.

Commentary seat.

Piero looked at the playback on the large LED screen in mid-air, and his thoughts were pulled away.
"Juventus made the first substitution adjustment."

"Cuadrado replaced Mandzukic!"

"The nickname of this Colombian star is Baoqiang."

"Judging from the appearance, they are somewhat similar."

Mandzukic didn't walk slowly to the center circle to shake hands and hug his replacement. After all, the team was one goal behind at this time, and he went straight out of bounds.

There was a burst of warm applause from the stands all around.

Most Juventus fans are nice.

They are very patient with their players. For example, Morata, who arrived in Turin at the beginning of the year, has repeatedly wasted excellent opportunities and will not be criticized.

The game resumed.

Cazorla takes the corner.

The football fell straight into the penalty area.

Morata and Giroud took off at the same time, but they were no match for Buffon's blue gloves.

"Juventus' line of defense and the goalkeeper run in too well."

"Especially the high-altitude ball defense, the division of labor is clear! There is no chance for Arsenal's double ghosts to hit the goal."

"Wenger made a gesture at this time, it should be to consider the impact of Bao Quadrado in the counterattack stage."

"Cuadrado's straight-line speed is not as good as the 37-year-old Barzagli, but he is still very fast with the ball. Arsenal should be careful!"

Pjanic was a little helpless.

When he received a pass from Buffon, he saw Arsenal's entire army fall back and put on a low defensive posture.
So what's the point of removing Mandzukic?
The arsenal is too good at playing tailwinds, right?

What about beautiful football!

Juventus quickly resumed the offensive suppression of the first half.

The football is passed to the left again.

Cuadrado started to speed up after receiving the ball.

His technique is very delicate, and his movement is elegant.When playing for Fiorentina, he liked to dive.

It is simply the nemesis of central defenders like Maguire.

But at this time Maguire is no longer on the left!He switched positions with Koscielny to mark the fat Higuain.

After a while.

The Allianz Stadium in Turin gradually became quiet.

Cuadrado did not take advantage of Koscielny.

It is difficult to even get the chance to kick a cross.

Pure style restraint.

Time passed minute by minute.

Juventus had no choice but to face Arsenal, who insisted on low defense.

Higuain is 16 centimeters shorter than Mertesacker and 10 centimeters shorter than Maguire, so he doesn't have any advantage in the high-altitude competition.

Li Kang was cruising in front of the defense line, repeatedly destroying the Bianconeri's artillery delivery.

Pjanic and Khedira swung two long-range shots, either flying towards the stands, or being easily put into Cech's arms.

The end of the game.

The Juventus defense team also rushed to the frontcourt.

Especially Bonucci, whose nickname is "Bo forward".

Still can't change the score.

Wenger will always give up the concept of "beautiful football" when facing Serie A teams.

finally.

Beep!beep beep~
The referee blew the whistle to end the game.

Juventus 0:1 Arsenal.
