Chapter 110 The First Game of the 18 Finals

Mejia and Wenger, these two confidantes and opponents, really have exactly the same ideas.

The reason why the two stopped and did not harm each other this time was that they did not want to affect the UEFA Champions League 4/1 finals 8 days later, so the two did not discuss it, and the tacit understanding naturally brought the matter to a smooth end.

Manchester City's first game in the Champions League was an away game in Italy, so as soon as the game was over, Messia drove everyone back and let everyone have a good rest.

Flying to Italy on his own plane the next day, Mesia wanted to go early to let everyone have a rest first, and then start to familiarize themselves with the venue and other things.

It has been raining non-stop today, Juventus' home stadium Del Alpi, the audience has been full early.

Today is Manchester City's first game against Juventus, and it is Manchester City's away game. What worries Messia most is the referee problem, but he can only think about it for himself.

There is no evidence at this time, and it is impossible to entangle, so we can only wait, and Juventus really has the ability to influence the referees of the Champions League?
The game started and Juventus kicked off.

Mecia's opponent this time is the famous coach Ancelotti, who also took over from the famous coach Lippi.

Both sides played cautiously and slowly at the beginning of the game today. The reason is the light rain. The players must spend a lot of time to adapt and adjust, otherwise this kind of weather is the most likely to cause injuries.

Juventus list:

Goalkeeper Peruzzi Substitute: Lampla Defender Pesoto Torricelli Montero Ferrara Substitute: Iuliano Midfielder Conte Davies Deschanel Zidane Substitute: Di Livio Tacchinardi Forward Piero Inzaghi substitute: Amoru

It's a pity that Del Piero was injured, and now he can only rely on Inzaghi alone. In addition, Ancelotti is a monk halfway through the game, so under normal circumstances Messia thinks it is very possible to win the game.

Juventus played 352 today, and this is the first time Messia has encountered this formation. Messia's evaluation of this formation is that there must be a world-class defender, otherwise it is a formation looking for death.

Don't others know that by removing a defender and adding a midfielder, the center will become a railroad?But if you look at the formation, not to mention all, it is basically a configuration of 4 defenders, which fully explains the problem.

If Manchester City wants to make a difference today, they can't fight against Juventus in the middle, because Juventus has too much advantage, so today they change the core of Manchester City and become Ronaldinho, and they don't restrict Ronaldinho's position on the field. He has free rein.

This is why Messia dares to play so much, because he knows Ronaldinho and has more confidence than Ronaldinho himself, but others don't understand, because although Ronaldinho has performed well in all aspects, he has only played for a year after all. It's just a game, so it's not reassuring.

But they all complied with Messia's arrangements, no one asked why, and no one was unhappy. This is the current Manchester City, united and obedient.

After 15 minutes of adjustment, both Manchester City and Juventus have adapted to the environment, so they began to strengthen their offense. Juventus relied on the large number of people in the middle, frequently launching attacks in the middle, coupled with the rainy and slippery weather, inevitable mistakes and other things happened frequently.

Whether it is Manchester City or Juventus, facing the power of nature, there is nothing they can do. The scene was anxious for a while, and there is no aesthetic feeling at all. It can be said that the rain makes the players' movements somewhat deformed. Fortunately, the rain is not too heavy for the time being.
