Chapter 381 Deportation for the first time

Sampdoria's state this season is their best in the past three years. They currently have 37 points, 5 points behind the previous Roma team, and temporarily rank seventh in the standings.Since the two teams most likely to reach the final of the Coppa Italia are the Turin duo, and both of them are basically locked in the European seats, so League No.6 will get a place to participate in the Europa League play-offs next season. For the old sailors who have not appeared in the European arena for seven or eight seasons, the attraction is still great.

Coupled with the fact that the opponents in this game are the Red Bulls who have a hostile relationship with them, Giampaolo and his players naturally hope to reap a victory. Can make today's opponent end the winning streak.

Therefore, without the interference of double matches in a week and few injuries in the first team, the home team naturally sent all their main players to participate in the battle. The 4-3-1-2 position is the most commonly used formation of the team coach Giampaolo. Even before facing the powerful Juventus, they have not changed their routines, and they even won the victory. Their strength is indeed not to be underestimated. watch for.

Compared with the first confrontation between the two teams in mid-September last year, Sampdoria made a lot of adjustments to the starting lineup today, and five players have changed.Except for the return of Italian goalkeeper Viviano who was unable to play due to injury at the time, most of the other players were promoted to the main force because they won the trust of the head coach during the interruption of the season.However, in the midfield, only the Polish international Linetti replaced the Belgian Platt, and the rest of the players have not changed. The double striker combination still includes the striker veteran Quagliarella who has been in excellent form before. With the Colombian Zapata.

Compared with the home team's full attack, the Turin side affected by the mid-week cup can only send a large number of rotation players. Li Moody also resorted to a 4-3-1-2 formation today, which is in the same mold as the opponent's position engraved.The goalkeeper is Iker Casillas, the back four are Dickman, Moretti, Gordaniga and DiMarco, the three deep midfielders are Fabas, Toulalang and Musis, and the attacking midfielder is Gourcuff, double striker Belotti and Pellegri.

Although the Turin team has never used this tactic before, it is equivalent to a deformation of 4-4-2. When playing in a parallel position, the team used four central players because they did not have a full-time full-time midfielder. In addition, there were key drills two days ago, so today's sudden change of tactics did not bring too much discomfort to everyone.

Li Mudi's formation of troops like this is mainly to stabilize his defense, because the absence of a large number of main players makes the team's strength not enough to fight against the opponent.Moreover, it is an away game, which will be interfered by off-field factors, so it is more conservative to use three midfielders to protect the dangerous area at the front of the penalty area.The home team's offensive style prefers to focus on breakthroughs and short passes in the middle, supplemented by long-range shots from the outside. Strengthen the defense of this area.Fortunately, on the offensive end, there is an experienced Gourcuff in charge of the overall situation. The impact of Belotti and Pellegri still has a chance to cause trouble for the opponent's goal.

But no one thought that the plan made by the visiting team before the game was destroyed in less than 5 minutes.In the process of scrambling for a header, Pellegri and the home team's Argentine veteran Silvestre pretended to be full, and his brow bone opened a big hole, and blood kept gushing out.After emergency treatment by the team doctor on the sidelines, the situation is still not ideal, and only stitches can be performed.In order to prevent the young man from being too painful, the Turin coach decided to replace him with Falk, otherwise Pellegri, who is under 17 years old, may not be able to survive eight stitches without the use of anesthesia.

The mutual trial phase between the two sides has not yet ended, and the visiting team lost a substitution quota, which is simply a black hole for the Red Bulls who need to keep a backup.But today's bad luck is obviously not over yet. In the 10th minute, Sampdoria pierced the goal guarded by Cassie with the first goal of the game, and took a one-goal lead. The [-] spectators erupted into loud cheers.

Falk's personal breakthrough failed to pass the home team's left-back Mulu. The latter directly launched a counterattack after stealing the ball. After a simple and fast pass, the ball arrived about four or five meters away from the top of the Torino penalty area.Seeing that the situation was not good, Fabas decisively stole the ball on the ground, and finally ended the opponent's counterattack by bringing down the dribbler, but gave the home team an excellent opportunity to set the ball.

Lucas Torreira, who just got up from the ground, stood behind the penalty spot after discussing with his teammates.Hearing the whistle to allow a free throw, he immediately completed his run-up and kicked a powerful low shot with his right foot.For Sampdoria's information on free kicks and penalties, the coaching staff of the Turin team naturally has a lot of research. At this distance, the opponent will usually let Ramirez or Quagliare Pulled to take the penalty, but this time it happened to be changed.And Cassie just remembered that in the information provided by the coaching staff, it was mentioned that Torreira likes to use the inside curve ball to attack the goal, coupled with his own on-the-spot judgment, he made the behavior of moving to the right in advance.

However, to the surprise of most people, the Uruguay international played a trick this time. The low shot he used happened to pass through the gap in the wall and went straight to Cassie's left corner. .Although the Turin goalkeeper pulled back his body in time and made a lunge to the left, it was a pity that he was a beat late, and the ball almost brushed his fingertips into the net behind him.Seeing the players of the home team celebrating wildly, the old goalkeeper, who has been in excellent form this season and has made frequent saves against the sky, couldn't help shaking his head, feeling dissatisfied with his mistakes.

The score fell behind, and Li Moody had to overturn all the arrangements before the game and instruct the players to strengthen their offense.The forward pressure of the visiting team's middle and backcourt players, although it has gained something on the offensive end, it also gave the opponent more opportunities to counterattack.Especially after Giampaolo was unwilling to adopt passive defensive tactics, both teams chose to fight hard in the midfield and control the ball. The two sides immediately fell into a fight, and the number of fouls also increased significantly.In the next less than 15 minutes, the referee showed two yellow cards to each of the two teams to remind the players to remain calm.

Due to Pellegri's injury, the Turin team only left Belotti as an outflank point in the opponent's penalty area, making it difficult for the wing cross tactics to cause trouble for the home team.And the main road is forced to advance. Even when the opponent also has three central midfielders protecting the front of the penalty area, it is still unable to open the situation. In addition, the strength of the rotation players is already a little behind Benassi and other main players. It is the first time to represent the team. Tulalang has not yet found enough tacit understanding with his teammates, so the Red Bull's offensive often looks very imposing, but the actual effect is not ideal.

However, Li Mudi's luck has never been bad, and the rumor that he was favored by the goddess of luck is also a little famous in the European continent.No, when a player was injured right after the opening game, an unexpected refraction helped his team tie the score. Giampaolo, who had gradually gained the psychological advantage, shook his head again and again, lamenting that the opponent can always It's shit luck.

No. In 205 minutes, the Red Bulls' offense in the middle was strictly guarded. The continuous passing of Gourcuff and Fabas always seemed stumbling under the interference of the opponent, and the ball was almost intercepted several times.And it was these performances that caused Samp's defensive players to have the illusion that more people participating in the press would completely destroy the attack of the visiting team, so the left back Mulu involuntarily took two steps back to the center.

Gourcuff was keenly aware of the space on this side, and with a big foot transfer, he passed the ball to Falk who advanced on the right. After getting the ball, the latter immediately chose to cut inside and enter the penalty area. Before Ferrari is in place, the inverted triangle returns to the middle.Belotti, who secretly retreated from the penalty area, kept the ball on the top line of the arc, and directly hit the ball with an angry shot. The ball hit the left leg of Linetti, who was standing near the penalty spot and was about to intercept it. There was a change of direction on the top, just in time to shake the home team goalkeeper Viviano who had already made a save, and flew into the near corner of the goal from under his fallen left foot. 1 to 1, relying on the lucky refraction ball of Hong Beibei, the Turin team tenaciously equalized the score in a very unfavorable situation.

After bringing the situation back to a balance of power, Li Moody came to the sidelines again and issued an order to continue to focus on defensive counterattacks. The players of the visiting team immediately returned to the tactics arranged before the game, giving up the ball they had fought so hard for before, and after stealing the ball in the backcourt The middle and long-distance passes of the team have also increased significantly.Belotti's header and Falk's side attack made the Samp players dare not press with all their strength. The two sides formed a stalemate confrontation. Neither of them could create a threatening attack before halftime. After attacking the goal, they returned to their respective locker rooms with a score of 1 to 1.

During the 15-minute short break, neither team made personnel adjustments, and even the tactics adopted did not change much.The home team still frequently used the usual multiplayer in the middle, but occasionally made two crosses from the side by surprise when there was space on the side, but they still failed to get the second hit within the range of the goal frame. Door.Their finishing performance today was very poor. When the game lasted for an hour, they only scored 6 of 1 shots. The prospect of scoring again is not very optimistic.In order to improve the quality of offense, Giampaolo replaced Polish center Kaunacki and local player Caprari one after another, but he still failed to see signs of improvement.

And Li Mudi, who has no pressure in his heart because Inter Milan failed to win the day before, can accept the result of a draw. He is also contented to get a point.Therefore, when the situation on the court did not appear to be obviously unfavorable to our side, we put on a look of sitting on the Diaoyutai, but when the opponent resorted to a three-forward attacking formation, Immobile replaced Belotti. Speed ​​is more suitable for counterattack tactics, and after recovering in the past few days, there is no problem with the current physical fitness to cope with the last 25 minutes.

However, another unexpected event disrupted his confident state and brought the trend of the game into an unpredictable situation. No. 70 minutes, Fabas was half a beat slow in a steal, and stepped on Caprari's feet after the opponent's player poked the ball away. The latter fell to the ground in pain and made a Tumbling and yelling behavior.The referee Gianluca Rocchi couldn't help but trot to the Turin midfielder who was apologizing to the victim, and showed him the second yellow card of the game, and then sent him off after two yellow cards turned into one red.

Turin players who thought the sentencing was too heavy naturally gathered around hoping the referee would show mercy. Li Moody also came to the fourth official and questioned the necessity of showing him a yellow card. Doubtful, but he didn't mean to.Afterwards, he quickly apologized, and his attitude was very sincere. Considering that he already had a yellow card, should the referee minimize the abnormal impact on the result of the game while maintaining the fairness of the game?

However, none of these actions could change the unfavorable situation that the Turin team will play one less player in the remaining 20 minutes. On the way to be pulled back to the coaching bench by the assistant coach, the two quickly completed the exchange.After the first dead ball in the resumption of the game, Vukocevic replaced Falk, who came off the bench in the first half, and the team's formation changed to 4-3-1-1, leaving only Immobile in front No one can contain the home team's defense, and the rest of the team must devote themselves to the defense.

Facing the god-given opportunity of eleven against ten, Giampaolo would not allow his team to waste it easily. With a wave of his hand, the home team launched a crazy attack, and also used a local midfielder in the No.709 minute Wei Lei replaced the exhausted Paraguayan veteran Barreto, and wanted to score another goal in the last ten minutes and get three points.The use of the third substitution quota also forced Quagliarella, who was suspected of having his nose broken 3 minutes later, to continue on the court, which more or less affected the performance of the strikers.

The Turin team's defensive ability has also been greatly improved this season. Even a defense line composed of multiple rotation players has tenaciously withstood waves of opponents' offensives with the help of teammates. A lore opportunity was created towards the end of the regular time of the game. No. In the 809th minute, Goldaniga cleared the ball out of the penalty area. Gourcuff seemingly blindly kicked the ball straight to the left side of the frontcourt. Defender Silvestre's scramble for high points created mutual interference, allowing the ball to slip past their heads, just in time for Immobile, who had been cruising the frontcourt.

At this time, there are only three players left in Sampdoria's half besides the previous two. In addition to Turin No. 10 who dribbled all the way forward, there is another central defender Ferrari. And central midfielder Linetti.Faced with Immobile's desperate breakthrough, the two defensive players quickly found a tacit understanding. Linetti stepped forward to press and mark the man, and Ferrari kept a distance of about two meters to protect. The three kept walking along the The route to the left of the middle road came to the vicinity of the restricted area line.

Immobile, who knew that he was in a very unfavorable situation with one against two, saw that he was still unable to get rid of the entanglement of the opponent's defensive players, so he stopped making too many attempts. After all, the 30-meter sprint allowed Zhou Zhong to play the whole game He no longer has the physical ability to make complicated movements.He volleyed the ball with the outside instep of his right foot cleanly, trying to make use of the sudden change of line to swing the ball at a small angle to let the ball pass between the two defenders.But unexpectedly, the ball hit Linetti's left arm, which was not close to the body. The flight trajectory seriously deviated from the direction of the goal, and the home team's midfielder was already inside the penalty area.

penalty!This was the subconscious reaction of all those who saw what happened, but the referee's whistle did not sound as expected.Immobile turned around and looked at Rocky, who was standing less than ten meters in front of him, but found that the latter made a gesture to continue the game, and immediately became angry.He ran to the referee who had followed the football towards the Turin team with a look of incredulity, trying to get a reasonable explanation for the opponent not awarding a penalty kick, but Rocky ignored him at all and just speeded up blindly. Because another wave of offensive by the home team has started again.

Ferrari, who was the first to react, rushed to the landing point, and a long-distance pass was passed to the retreating Torreira. After a few quick passes with his teammates, the latter brought the ball to the front of the visiting team's penalty area. The Samp players obviously hope to take advantage of the psychological fluctuations that the opponent has just produced to create a lore.

And just when Immobile seemed about to lose control of himself and was about to make a move to block the referee's body, Rocky suddenly stopped and stopped the game with a series of hasty whistles.When the players on the field looked over in a daze, he showed excellent physical fitness, walked quickly to the sidelines, and greeted Li Mudi who had been forcibly pulled away from the fourth official by several Turin coaches. A red card was shown and the Turin coach was sent directly to the stands.Accompanied by the boos and curses of the audience, Li Mudi had to leave the coaching area under the "escort" of Samfield and Zheng Xiaoyang. This was the first time in his coaching career that he received a big gift of a red gemstone card.
