Chapter 649 Backward
The celebration banquet was held, but this is not the end of Juventus' season. On the evening of May 5th, Juventus will also play the final of the Coppa Italia with Naples at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.

It has come to this point, Juventus has to want to win this trophy, and Naples has never won any trophy since Maradona, and they have more expectations for this trophy than Juventus more enthusiastically.

However, this season Mazari seems to have come to an end in Naples. This season, Naples was out of the Champions League and failed to qualify for the Champions League again in the league. Undoubtedly, this made Delarentis very dissatisfied.

Now this Coppa Italia can be said to be Mazzarri's life-saving straw. If he fails, his dismissal is almost certain.

After the celebration banquet, Juventus only rested for one day and then devoted themselves to intense preparations. To be honest, everyone seems to have not shaken off the joy of the championship. Is it related to the slackness of the queen players themselves?

Conte never dared to relax, and repeatedly poured cold water on everyone on the training ground. These days, the tone of preparation seems to be higher and the requirements are stricter.

It made the players privately feel that coach Conte, who won the league championship, is relying more and more on building his own higher prestige.

"Do you think the coach is crazy?!" Matri teased Conte quietly with a smile.

"I don't think he's crazy, it's you who are crazy! How dare you criticize him, be careful that he makes you wear out the bench!" Zhang Yuan also answered Matri with a smile. He didn't care about Conte's strictness. Discomfort, but Zhang Yuan doesn't pay much attention to the Coppa Italia now.

In his opinion, Naples is nothing to be afraid of. Juventus has not yet taken shape in away games this season, but it still broke the curse that Juventus must lose when they are away at the San Paolo Stadium in the past two years. The way of playing has become more and more mature, and Naples has been beaten black and blue, so Zhang Yuan doesn't value Naples.

This kind of mentality is not unique to him. Many people in the team think this way, thinking that their strength can beat Naples.

On the evening of May 5th, the match between Juventus and Naples was held as scheduled. The Olympic Stadium in Rome was clearly divided, with black and white on one side and sky blue on the other. This was the effect created by the fans of the two teams.

The two teams now know the basics. Mazari is also very familiar with Conte, and Conte is also not willing to give up. As a coach, they have made the best preparations.

The starting lineup for Juventus is:

Goalkeeper: Storari

Defender: Barzali Bonucci Caceres
Midfielder: Lichtsteiner, Vidal, Pirlo, Marchisio, Estigarivia
Forward: Del Piero Zhang Yuan
Storari's first start is a kind of reward. In fact, Storari's strength is beyond doubt, but he is also willing to come to Juventus as a substitute. Everyone knows that whoever goes to Juventus at this stage is given Buffon is a substitute, but the advantage of moving to Juventus is that this is a giant, not only a glorious scene in his career, but also has the honor of winning the championship at the end of his career.

Del Piero is a serious farewell game. In the last round of the league, Conte arranged for him to bid farewell to the Serie A battle, and today he was arranged to enter the starting lineup.

Needless to say, the other striker must be Zhang Yuan!

The starting lineup for Napoli is:

Goalkeeper: De Sanctis
Defender: Campagnaro, Cannavaro, Aronica

Midfielder: Macho Zema, Ilyin, Le Hamsik, Zuniga
Forward: Lavic Cavani

Their lineup has not changed, the only thing is that the Titan Gargano is suspended, and Mazari replaced him with Zema Yili.

Del Piero told Zhang Yuan in training a few days ago that he hoped to win the trophy and end the season perfectly. At that time, Zhang Yuan told him to rest assured that your wish will definitely come true.

But Naples will definitely sing the opposite. Their captain Cannavaro Jr. said in an interview: "Italian football should thank Del Piero, but we don't want him to celebrate the victory in Juventus' last game!"

It's a pity that today's opponent is not Del Piero but Zhang Yuan. Cannavaro Jr. has strength but is far behind his brother. He does a good job of man-marking, but sometimes he feels a little edgy .

Naples' defense itself is not a very strong defense. This season, they have conceded 46 goals in the league, which is more than twice that of Juventus. It is difficult to say that he is good with such a defense, which is why Zhang Yuan is not very worried about Naples.

However, Conte is not as optimistic as his players. Naples played 352 with an obvious attacking tendency and strong offensive ability. Cavani is physically strong and has an excellent ability to grab points. Players with good breakthrough ability, of course, you can't ignore their other advantages. For example, Cavani also has the ability to fight alone, and Lavezzi was also one of Naples' main scoring points before Cavani arrived. one.

At the beginning of today's game, Naples aggressively pressed Juventus. Today they adopted a high-position pressing tactic. Their main goal of the siege has changed. It is not to force Pirlo to play the ball quickly, but to concentrate on forcing Juventus. The back line gets the ball out as quickly as possible.

This trick made Juventus a little uncomfortable at the beginning. After all, Naples was the role that was beaten in the second half of the last game.

This situation also made Juventus a bit dangerous in front of the goal, but Naples couldn't really welcome the goal.

Conte is in a hurry on the sidelines. This is not good. He is constantly greeting his disciples on the sidelines, paying attention to concentration. According to his idea, Naples has played for ten minutes. If the effect is not seen, it is impossible to continue playing like this. , Playing like this is very energy-intensive. Do you still play in the second half? !
The idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel. In the 13th minute of the first half, Juventus suffered a blow. Lavezzi got rid of Caceres' cross in front of the goal. Cavani grabbed a point and took the lead for Naples. break the ice.

Naples led 1:0. Mazzari happily hugged the assistant coach beside him. He is not what Conte guessed today. He will not let his team consider the distribution of physical fitness. What is the situation of joking? !What he needs now is for Naples to maximize their offensive strengths and win this game.

The reason why he didn't choose to trade with Juventus in the midfield is that one of the reasons is that Naples does not have Gargano. Gargano is very short, but his defensive ability is still quite outstanding. Zema Yili and Gargano Compared with the defensive midfielder, it is not as good as the defensive midfielder. Secondly, the last game has taught him a profound lesson. It is not a good choice to give up some of his offensive characteristics in the midfield against Juventus.

So he told the players before the game today that what he didn't say today was to attack them and kick them hard!

Speaking of Juventus at the end of the season, they were in good form at that time, and Naples' offense may not be able to open Buffon's door, but today the Juventus players seem to be in poor condition, and there are more passing mistakes. many.

This made Mazari the right medicine!
Zhang Yuan is at the top and can't get the ball at all. He does nothing. This is the disadvantage of him being on the court with Piero. Zhang Yuan is good at, but now he can only play as a center forward.

Conte looked very annoyed, Juventus' state is really not good today, he can see it clearly, ball control needs good passing to support, but today Juventus' passing success rate is far lower than in the season Average, that's the main thing.

Conte was thinking about countermeasures, and now he needs to make some changes, so he changed his strategy. Since the overall state is not very good, Conte simply resorted to playing with a traditional center forward. Play directly behind the Naples defense, or let center Zhang Yuan fight for the top.
