Mister Legend

Chapter 336 Continue to Rotate
Because we will face the challenge of the European League Athens AEK at home in the middle of the week, and we will face the powerful Red Wolves in the league next weekend, so the top center Belotti cannot play, Lars Diarra and Ranocchia, whose knees felt sore and swollen during Thursday's training, will also miss the next two games. Li Moody still has to consider sustainable development.So he carried out a certain degree of rotation again in the starting list announced on Sunday morning, hoping to use the strongest lineup in his hands to go to the capital team on the premise of ensuring these two victories.

In the 3-4-1-2 formation, the goalkeeper is Cassie, the three central defenders choose Diego Llorente, Moretti and Kanneman, and the wingbacks on both sides are Silvestri. And Bareca, the two central midfielders are Vukocevic and Baselli. Standing in front of the midfielder Benassi is Falk, who is more active on the two sides, and Zhengyin center Immobile.In the face of calls from the outside world for the young player Pellegri to start, the Turin coach still did not overdo it. He still hopes to give the young man playing time under the most reasonable circumstances so that he can grow without too much pressure .

The Turin team arrived in Crotone in southern Italy by plane at around 08:30 on Saturday night. They staged a comeback last season and succeeded in overtaking Empoli in the final stage to avoid relegation.However, they are still doing nothing in the transfer market this summer, and they are still considered by the outside world to be a team in the relegation circle, and the team's performance is indeed basically equivalent to these predictions.If it weren't for the good results of 1 win and 1 tie in the last two rounds, they would only be better than Benevento, who has not scored a point so far. With a three-point lead, they may be in danger at any time.

Facing the powerful Red Bulls at home this round, coach Nicola also knows that his team has little chance, but their own urgent situation still requires them to fight every game as the last game, so take advantage of the opponent's opportunity Naturally, when several core players are unable to play, they still have to fight with all their strength.Crotone still has the usual 4-4-2 formation, but there are really no well-known players in the starting lineup, except for the Albanian central defender Ayetti who joined the Turin team in the summer, if there is no FM system Help, Li Modi may not be able to pronounce a single name.The core of the team is the 20-year-old midfielder Mandragora on loan from Juventus. The two forwards are Simi from Nigeria and Trota on loan from Sassuolo. However, they only played in the first seven rounds. With the offensive ability of scoring four goals, the possibility of the Turin team conceding the ball is really not too great.

But as the saying goes: "Standing the flag indiscriminately will be beaten in the face." After resisting several waves of offensives from the visiting team at the beginning of the game, Crotone took the lead with its first shot in the game. No. In the 205th minute, taking advantage of the gap between the Turin team's slight adjustments after a burst of onslaught, the home team tried to push it out.Trota met the defense on the right and moved the ball to the left side of the penalty area. After receiving the ball, the Swedish full-back Roden suddenly chose to cut inside facing Silvestri's single marking, and made two steps inside the sideline of the penalty area. Directly from the position of the right foot low shot far corner of the goal.I don't know why Casillas's reaction was half a beat slow this time. In addition, the angle and speed of this attack were indeed excellent. He fell to the ground and failed to save. Into the gate of the Turin team. 1 to 0, the home team unexpectedly took the lead, and the entire Hida Stadium was boiling.

After losing the point, the visiting team began to counterattack with all their strength, but the more impatient they were, the worse the effect would be.At the end of the first half, they had a total of twelve chances to attack the goal, but only three shots were on target. Coupled with the good performance of the home team's goalkeeper Cordas, the score behind one goal still failed to change. .

Fortunately, after the adjustment at halftime, the Turin players stabilized their emotions after the rematch. Falk and Immobile scored in 59 and [-] minutes respectively, leading the score in one fell swoop.First, Benassi's forced breakthrough in the middle was destroyed by the opponent's defender. Falke, who followed up, met the ball three meters away from the top of the arc and sent a rubbing shot with his left foot. The ball drew a wonderful arc and rushed into the goal. In the lower left corner, the Crotone goalkeeper failed to respond the whole time, but watched the goal behind him fall.

And just 6 minutes after the two sides returned to the same starting line, there was finally a mistake in the home team's defense. Baselli's long-distance through pass formed a fatal assist. Erdas, calmly used fake moves to shake out the chance of the empty goal, so he succeeded easily.

But just when everyone thought that Crotone would lose the possibility of scoring points, an accident happened. Veteran Moretti accidentally hit West with his raised right elbow in the process of fighting for a header. Mi's head, while causing the opponent to leave the field due to injury, also turned two yellows and one red and was sent off the field. It was No. 60 two minutes into the second half.Torino, who played one player less, immediately fell into a passive state. The disadvantages of physical fitness and away games forced them to choose to retreat. However, the home team quickly took advantage of this golden opportunity to score another goal, making the score a second time.

No. In the 608th minute, Crotone played a tacit cooperation among the three on his own walk. After the left back Martela passed the substitute Fabas, he knocked the ball across to the midfielder Barber who was responding in the middle. Reese, the latter passed to the substitute striker Nalini who was already standing on the line of the penalty area before the defensive players came to siege.The latter carried Diego Llorente with his back to the goal and protected the ball for two seconds. After Martela, who advanced at high speed, entered the penalty area, he used the outer instep of his right foot to push the ball into the path of his teammates. superior.Martela caught up with two steps, first he stretched out his left foot to stop the ball, and then immediately made a stab shot.Although the Turin goalkeeper reacted quickly and fell to the ground to save with one palm, but because the distance was too close, his left hand could not fully hit the target, and the ball still hit the net after changing direction.

Counting the stoppage time, with about 25 minutes left before the end of the game, Crotone not only equalized the score, but also had the huge advantage of one more player. Maybe their second victory of the new season would be Will be very lucky to come.

Fortunately, after more than a season of training, the Torino team has greatly improved their will and quality, and there is no sign of collapse in the face of such a difficult situation.After all the players worked together to withstand the opponent's crazy attack, Li Moody played the last card in his hand at No. 805 minutes. He even replaced Falk with striker Pellegri. Not only did he not stick to the end Instead, the two wingbacks began to pass frequently, using this new force to create chaos in front of the home team's goal, and then took the opportunity to find opportunities to score.

And this bold adjustment also paid off the determination and tenacity of the Turin people at the last moment of the game. In the No.901 minute, Bareca's 45-degree cross from the left gave Pellegri a header attempt. Although the ball failed to hit an angle, it was powerful enough. The goalkeeper of the home team, Kordas, did not dare to be careless. He lifted the crossbar and gave the opponent a corner kick.Benassi drove the ball straight into the penalty area, and Silvestri, who had four defenders around him, grabbed the spot and headed the ball into the far corner with a flick of the head.This scene stunned all the fans and the home team. Even the commentators of the two countries were shouting incredible, and the fans in China even gave the Turin coach a good blow on the Internet. He was almost named the current number one coach.

2 to 3, relying on this lore before the finale, Li Mudi led the team to a thrilling victory in the away game under the unfavorable conditions of playing one player less, and gained the hard-won three points.

At this time, the other five games that finished at the same time also had results. Fiorentina beat Udinese 2-1 at home, Bologna won Spal with the same score, and Sampdoria won more With one goal, they defeated Atlanta 3-1 at home and continued to maintain a good momentum in the new season.Genoa narrowly beat Cagliari 3-2 in an away game and finally won their first win of the season, while Sassuolo was forced to 0-0 by Chievo.

On Sunday night, the final two kick-offs also took place.In the direct confrontation between the two newly promoted horses, Verona beat Benevento by one goal at home. While winning the first league victory, it also gave the latter a miserable eight-game losing streak at the beginning.

As for the remaining game, it is naturally the much-anticipated Milan Derby.Under the situation that the opponent turned away and dominated the audience, Spalletti showed the world why he is considered a first-class head coach. With the disadvantage of only [-]% of the ball possession, Inter Milan's counterattack But he played very sharply and took the lead twice.However, AC Milan also broke out extremely strong fighting power in the contest with the rivals in the same city. Suso and Bonaventura (who made Handanovic's own goal) successively helped the team equalize the score.

At the last moment, Si Shuai replaced the midfielder Valero with Edel, and launched a desperate fight very similar to Li Mudi before.As a result, it was the Italian international who made a key corner kick in the No.808 minute. Although Inter Milan failed to take advantage of this opportunity to score directly, D’Ambrosio was caught by the Swiss Rica when he was fighting for the spot. Do Rodriguez hugged and fell to the ground, and the referee decisively awarded a penalty kick.Icardi then took the penalty, and after deceiving Donnarumma, he pushed the ball into the lower right corner of the goal and helped Inter Milan seal the victory with a hat-trick.And this is also the second player to score a hat-trick in the Serie A Milan derby since Diego Milito in 57 in 2012 years.

Although this result is somewhat cruel to the fans of the Rossoneri, judging from the state and results of both sides after the start of the new season, Inter Milan is undoubtedly the stronger team.Considering the investment gap between the two in the transfer market, Montella's life is indeed a bit sad. There have been rumors that "Brother Li" seems to have moved the idea of ​​​​changing coaches, but in the eyes of most professionals, AC Milan's problem is still in terms of signings planning and running-in. Whoever changes the coach may not necessarily have a big improvement.

After the end of this round of Serie A, Naples and Benevento are still sticking to their winning and losing streak records at both ends of the standings, while Juventus were both overtaken by Inter Milan and Torino after losing, and fell to No. [-] four position.At the end of the list, as many as five teams with five points and two slightly better teams with six points together form a huge relegation circle. It can be said that everyone is in danger. As a result, the fate of many clubs may be determined. At least three or four coaches have shown signs of instability.

On Monday morning when the team was on holiday, Li Moody welcomed a rare guest. Nadal returned to Europe to rest after finishing the Asian games. He squeezed out two days to visit his friends. It can be regarded as a door-to-door debt collection.

After winning the ten crowns at the French Open, Rafa continued to catch up with Federer's 18 Grand Slam titles. Unfortunately, at Wimbledon in early July, he lost to Luxembourg's Muller in the fourth round.After missing the chance to return to No. 1142 in the world, he also watched the Swiss King win his eighth Wimbledon title, widening the gap between the two again.Fortunately, Natto regained his strength in the US Open at the end of August. First, he returned to the world's number one throne after [-] days, and after being lucky enough to avoid many players, he won three consecutive matches in the final. A complete victory over South African Cannon Anderson, the third time to rule the roost in Flushing.And this year's four Grand Slams were divided up by the two old football kings "Fena", which also shows the lack of success of the younger generation of players.

However, when the U.S. Open entered the semi-finals and finals, Moody Lee was unable to take time to go to the scene to cheer for his friends because of the team's game. To make up for this missed appointment, he invited the king of clay to Italy in his free time. , By the way, invite the other party to have a big meal.

At the beginning of October, Nadal felt the heaven non-stop. First, he won the China Open championship after 12 years, and then lost to his old rival Federer in the final of the Modu Tennis Masters and finished second.With these good results, Rafa and his girlfriend Siska came to Turin as a guest, in order to relax the tension in the year-end finals.

The world's most famous tennis player is obviously here, which will naturally attract the attention of Turin and even the entire Italian sports circle and media, but none of the reporters got the chance to interview Nadal.The Turin coach and his friends came out together only once during the day. Under the protection of many security personnel, they browsed at the foot of the Alps for less than an hour, and then went to the most famous western restaurant in the city for dinner.In the afternoon of the next day, Natto and his girlfriend flew back to Spain, and there was no possibility for the media to get close.

After sending off his friends, the Turin coach put all his energy into the mid-week European game. In order to prepare for the ensuing league, the team will still adopt a rotation strategy, and some young players have also won as a result. Great opportunity to perform.
