Legend of Fengshen

Chapter 686
Catania equalized the score, did not relax, and continued to attack!Carrera scolded from the sidelines, and captain Buffon's reminders and curses finally woke up the Juventus players.

With the possession of the ball and the interception, the situation on the field quickly stabilized. Catania still played the same way, but it was difficult to get any bargain. The ball is still behind Juventus.

Of course, Juventus can't be in a hurry to attack now. The rhythm has been very fast since the start, so it should be let go.

Gradually, Catania fell down, and Zhang Yuan became active again. Catania has made sufficient preparations for him today, and someone will stick to him at any time, but this guy is really flexible if he can't stand it. The team is so stupid that they put all their energy into Zhang Yuan because he still has teammates.

This is actually the reason why Zhang Yuan has performed well in the club, but he can't give full play to his energy in the national team. It is undoubtedly unrealistic to expect Zhang Yuan to do magic tricks every game.

Zhang Yuan started to get some shooting opportunities, but unfortunately he was almost lucky to score.

Malan is afraid of this kind of Juventus, which is soft and tough to you. Their ball control has a different concept from Barcelona's ball control. Juventus' ball control tends to control and drive defense. Barcelona also has this aspect purpose, but obviously they pay more attention to offense and focus more on offensive small-scale running.

To put it bluntly, Juventus is holding the ball with a defensive label, and Barcelona is holding the ball with an offensive style. Both have the same effect. Juventus can also use rhythm changes and personal abilities to tear apart Notch in Catania.

Malan kept reminding his players to pay attention to defense, especially not to lose the wind in the confrontation. According to his idea, the game will follow this rhythm. Juventus, who are physically weak in the second half, will definitely reduce their control of the ball. At that time, it will be Kata Niah's chance, now the primary purpose is to hold on.

Catania's formation reclaimed and formed a dam for interception in the midfield. The front of the penalty area did not dare to foul too much. Juventus has a free kick player Pirlo, but he did not dare to be careless.

The referee blew the whistle, the first half ended, the two teams played 0:0, Malan breathed a sigh of relief, Carrera was worried, Juventus did not achieve the desired result, and he still had his own problems. It is very clear that after 70 minutes in the second half, Juventus may not be able to take the initiative.

Barrientos seemed to be still worried about the unwarranted goal. When he was walking towards the player tunnel, he caught up with Zhang Yuan and said, "Your goal must have been offside! Still not admitting it?!"

"Brother, I really don't know if I'm offside! Do you know if it's you?! It's so strange, he is the one who made the penalty, why don't you go to him?!" Zhang Yuan looked back at the referee and said helplessly.

Barrientos still wanted to grab Zhang Yuan's arm to speak, but Zhang Yuan threw him away and left the court at a faster pace.

Zhang Yuan’s head is full of depression, I didn’t score the goal, I didn’t make the penalty, what’s the matter with you always explaining to me, but Barrientos thinks the offside person is Zhang Yuan, not Borg bar.

By the way, do you see clearly? !Zhang Yuan couldn't stop complaining, Barrientos' position is not a good position, he is following Pogba, why did he say he was offside so arbitrarily? !
Not to mention this small episode, the two teams went back to the locker room. It was time to cheer up and adjust tactics. 15 minutes passed quickly, and everyone changed sides to fight again!

Juventus regained some physical fitness and began to attack again at the beginning. This was Conte's idea again. For him, the team was very difficult, but these three points were necessary. Reality forced him to open and fight as soon as possible. The points gap of the following teams is devoted to the Champions League. The situation in Group E is still confusing and unpredictable. Juventus must deal with it with the spirit of twelve points.

In the attack in the first half, although Zhang Yuan was offside, the goal was scored after all. To sum it up, the attack at the beginning of the first half was actually pretty good, which can be regarded as achieving the satisfactory effect of Conte.

Catania stopped attacking in the second half, but took the initiative to retreat. It seemed that Malan was determined to consume Juventus's energy.

The united Catania defended very well, and Juventus found it difficult to find any good chances to score. Zhang Yuan looked anxious, and once he was a little closer to Pogba, he reminded Pogba.

"Paul, don't be afraid to pass the threatening ball, sometimes you have to take risks!"

At the beginning of the first half of Juventus, Pogba let go and dared to pass some threatening balls, but in the second half, for some reason, he became less courageous. Maybe a few defensive mistakes in the later stage made him a little guilty, you know The ball that Catania equalized was that he lost his position in the middle, and Asamoah came to make up for it, allowing Catania to seize the opportunity.

Pogba is very aura, but there must be one thing, the teammates around must work hard to move actively, whether they want to get it or not, they must move to get it first.

After Zhang Yuan encouraged Pogba, he has been looking for a suitable gap. As soon as Pogba got the ball, he raised his vigilance and stepped on the accelerator. To be honest, he did a lot of useless work. It is still a little tender to grasp.

In the 59th minute, Zhang Yuan finally seized the opportunity. Pogba and Qiao Wenke made an exquisite two-for-one cooperation in the middle, and suddenly kicked up a pass. Zhang Yuan's running position was not in vain this time, he got rid of the Lerotale, ahead of Andujar who was attacking, lightly pushed the football, and the ball hit the Catania gate from the head of Andujar who was flailing his claws.

Juventus once again took the lead, Zhang Yuan ran to the sidelines and knelt to celebrate and hugged Pogba later.

"That's right! Don't be afraid of losing the pass, there is no chance to take a chance!" Zhang Yuan praised Pogba.

The fans booed again. Lerota raised his hand to signal Zhang Yuan to be offside, but the linesman ignored him. The referee also blew the whistle for a goal. The Catania players once again surrounded the referee. Indicates that the ball is invalid.

But this time they really missed again, Zhang Yuan was not offside!
The impatient Barrientos received a topaz card this time, and he was rude to the referee. The referee watched the replay around halftime, and he was merciful to him.

As for their president, Pulvellenti, who was furious in the stands, it goes without saying that the damn thief is about to steal the victory.

Malan had no choice but to replace Barrientos with Castro. Castro and Barrientos have similar positions. Barrientos can play midfielder or midfielder, while Castro can play. Can play as a midfielder or as a winger.

This is basically a match-up substitution. Now that time is running out, Ma Lan doesn't want to change his formation and attack.

After Zhang Yuan scored the second goal, Juventus began to work hard under Carrera's order. Ma Lan made a decisive decision and immediately moved Catania's formation forward. Juventus's counterattack quality is high? !What are you afraid of!He has to bet now that Juventus made it clear that they want the game to return to the track of control, but Malan could not let them do so, but took a high position to press down, disrupting Juventus' ball possession rhythm again, and making Juventus move. Get up and use up your energy.

Being a head coach is such a grueling job. You have to judge the situation on the sidelines, and Malan is doing a good job.

Juventus did not panic, but the rhythm of the game failed to enter their track as expected. The competition between the two sides in the midfield was fierce, and Catania's scrambling moves became more and more serious. Who made them feel wronged? gas!

The referee showed yellow cards one after another to warn Catania's players, but there were still players going forward, anyway, it just couldn't make it easier for Juventus.

In the 73rd minute, Marchese accumulated two yellow cards and was sent off by the referee. This is not a problem in itself, but in view of the public opinion caused by the previous penalty issue, the Catania fans booed hugely and lasted A long time.

Malan was quite remorseful, he felt that he should have replaced Marchese earlier, and even he himself felt that there was nothing wrong with the red card.
