Fame with a ball

After the 34th round of Serie A, I don’t know if it was inspired by Catania’s coach Montella. Juventus’ opponent Lazio in the 35th round of the league also played an iron barrel to deal with Juventus.

The football atmosphere in Italy determines that their team is characterized by defense, and none of the teams that can compete in the top league all year round has a poor defense. When Lazio puts on a defensive posture, no matter what kind of offensive Juventus launches , They just stayed behind. Lin Zhigao tried countless kicks but failed to get the ball into the Lazio goal. In the end, the game ended as Lazio coach Petkovic wished, and it ended 0:0.

Juventini began to miss the days when Iaquinta was there. If the 191 tall high center forward was still on the court and he assisted Lin Zhigao, Lazio would definitely not be able to defend the goal!

However, some people analyzed that Iaquinta is 35 years old this year and has been suspended due to injuries all year round. Several high center forwards are more reliable.Think about it, Verratti, Pirlo and other excellent midfielders are exquisitely guided, high center forwards dominate the air, and Lin Zhigao attacks on the ground. What an invincible combination!

What is more frustrating than Juventus fans is Catania's coach Montella. After learning the result of the match between Juventus and Lazio, he roared to the sky in annoyance: "We are just a little less lucky than Lazio. Ah! It’s just a little bit of luck!” Montella was still lamenting that if Catania striker Barrientos had had better luck in the last round of the league, if he had unleashed the pendulum to beat Lin Zhigao, maybe they would The score against Juventus can also be played 0:0.

But on the football field, how can there be any "ifs"?Good luck is actually part of strength.

Juventus only scored one goal in two consecutive games. This is a rare phenomenon that has never happened this season, and it also gave the Bianconeri a lot of inspiration for the remaining few league opponents-they can also use iron buckets. Let's get through the next few games!

At this time, some people may ask, "Why did these teams not expect to use defensive tactics against Juventus in the previous two seasons, but now they are coaxing?" Seems embarrassing too!"

Although most of the senior fans have the habit of wantonly commenting on the team's tactics and attacking the coaches as useless, the coaches of the Serie A team are certainly not parallel imports with broken brains. They will make such tactical arrangements. There is a reason - after the 35th round of the league, there are only 13 league games left until the end of the 14-3 season, but the closer to this time, the more intense the competition in the league standings, regardless of the league A draw can only increase one point more than losing a game, but it is often the difference of one point that makes countless teams feel distraught after the end of the season!

Sometimes it is precisely because of the difference of one point that many teams are ranked backward in the standings by the wrong place, losing the qualification to play in the Champions League or UEFA Cup, and also missing at least several million euros in TV next season The broadcast is accounted for, and what is even worse is those teams that have fallen into the relegation zone due to a small point difference. Next season, they will decisively say goodbye to Serie A and go to Serie B.

Juventus' opponents in the remaining three rounds of the league are Chievo, Parma and Naples. Unfortunately, Chievo and Parma are now hovering in the relegation zone, and they are likely to appear in Serie B next season, not to mention Naples , they have been fighting for the Champions League qualification this season, league points are very important to them at this moment, so these three teams will definitely use their best strength to deal with them in the remaining league. Juventus!

In addition to the league rankings, another important reason why Serie A teams now choose the iron barrel team to deal with Juventus is-they don't want to be nailed to the pillar of shame!

Lin Zhigao has scored 36 goals in the league, rewriting the league scoring record in a single season in Serie A. Since then, the whole world has focused on No. 10 of Juventus. How to rewrite history.It can be said that if any team is hit by Lin Zhigao in the game, the media will definitely write a report after the game, "In the just-concluded Juventus vs. XXX game, when XXX's defense line faced Lin Zhigao Vulnerable, let him score his XX goal in the league and rewrite history..."

For other Serie A teams, using their failure to add a lot of glory to the opponent's face, and it may be mentioned continuously in the next few years and decades, this is the real truth. What a shame!

Chievo, Parma, Napoli, Juventus' Coppa Italia semi-final opponent Palermo, and even the Inter Milan and Roma managers that the Bianconeri are likely to meet once they reach the final, all spoke to reporters. , Mentioned: "Of course I tend to use conservative tactics to deal with Juventus. Their current momentum is too strong, and it is the worst strategy to face the attack head-on. No, I don't think such tactics are ugly at all. It's just boring and as long as we win there is no beautiful or ugly football and the fans will forgive us."

The Serie A teams regard Juventus as the most threatening enemy, as if as long as they win or even draw with Juventus, they will win. The reporters can't wait to know what Juventus will do. How to respond, facing the ensuing iron barrels one by one, does Capello have any good ways to deal with it?

The reporters immediately rushed to interview Capello. After listening to the question, the iron-blooded coach did not deliberately keep it secret as usual. He nodded and said: "The team has indeed made some changes now to deal with the situation in the next few days. The iron barrel array that will be encountered frequently in a game."

I knew Juventus would definitely not sit still!The reporter immediately became excited: "What kind of change? Is it tactical or player cooperation? Can you reveal something?"

"There are only a few effective moves against the iron barrel formation, and we naturally find out what we are good at." Capello is stingy, and refuses to say: "As for what it is, you will know when the game is over. .”

This, what is the difference between saying this and not saying it?The reporter was depressed, and he continued to question Capello, but the iron-blooded coach didn't give him any face, and left with a straight face.

What is the most frustrating thing for a reporter?Of course, half of the news is gone!

The unreconciled reporters waited outside the Juventus training base, hoping to find some reliable news. Finally, after the training ended one day, Lin Zhigao's car appeared outside the base gate!

The eyes of countless reporters lit up instantly - Lin Zhigao's car!They usually wait for the news outside the club, and they can see other players several times a day, but this is the most elusive player who can't be found. They actually waited for them this time?If the target is this person, any random interview can greatly increase the sales of the newspaper. I am so lucky today!

Many reporters immediately ran over and piled up in front of Lin Zhigao's car, blocking his way home, and then shouted with their cameras: "Lin, accept our interview!" "Lin, roll down the window." , let's leave after asking questions!"

Lin Zhigao really didn't want to accept their interview, but he couldn't accept it this time, because the reporters blocked the driveway, so he couldn't be so determined to step on the gas pedal and cause a car accident, right?In desperation, Lin Zhigao could only open the car door and walk out, leaning on the front of his car and spreading his hands, he asked, "What do you want to ask? Tell me."

Surprisingly, the reporters fell silent.

"Hey, no one wants to ask questions?" Lin Zhigao widened his eyes in doubt and scratched his head, "If you don't ask me, I'll go home."

Unexpectedly, as soon as Lin Zhigao opened his eyes, a reporter gasped and broke the quiet atmosphere and asked in surprise, "Lin, why are your eyes blue?"

It turns out that Lin Zhigao's skin from the brow bone to his forehead now has a tennis-ball-sized bruise. Although it has not broken the skin and bleeds, it looks particularly terrifying against the white, delicate to transparent skin of the rest of his face, especially When Lin Zhigao opened his eyes wide or smiled and winked, he looked as if he had been... domestically abused.

Someone started, and the scene immediately became lively, and everyone asked, "Yes, you were fine last time I saw you, why did you suddenly hurt around your eyes?" "There are bruises on your forehead too!" On the wall?" "Lin, did you fight with someone?" "It can't be that there is a discord within the team..." Someone asked, and took out a camera to shoot Lin Zhigao's forehead with a "click click" some.

Seeing that the reporters' associations had become more and more abundant, Lin Zhigao quickly waved his hands and said, "Stop, stop! I didn't fight with anyone, and I didn't get into a fight with my teammates. I accidentally ran into it during training."

Someone asked in a low voice: "Could it be that Lin you hit the doorpost again?"

Lin Zhigao touched his nose in embarrassment: "Not really, it's because of other reasons... Cough, what questions do you want to ask?"

Only then did the reporters remember their business, and they asked questions one after another: "Capello said that Juventus is now actively training to deal with the iron barrel formation. Has there been any new tactics? What do you think about the next few rounds of the league? Will confidence score again?"

Lin Zhigao said with a smile: "Of course I have the confidence to score goals! But it's not a new tactic, it just increases the team's air superiority."

"Air superiority? Isn't Iaquinta, the only high center forward in the Juventus team, suspended due to injury? Could it be that Capello recruited some players from the youth team to the first team?"

Lin Zhigao asked back: "Why do you think that when you mention headers, you must have high center forwards to score, and other forwards can't?"

The reporters all laughed and said, "Is there anyone in the Juventus first team who has header potential? Who? Quagliarella? Vucinic? Could it be Lin yourself?"

The reporters laughed out loud, thinking that they had told a very interesting joke, but someone caught a glimpse of Lin Zhigao's face suddenly becoming very depressed, after thinking for a while, he said in surprise, "Lin, are you practicing heading recently? "

Lin Zhigao nodded.

"Then the bruising around your eyes..."

"I hit it while practicing header!" Lin Zhigao stretched out his hand, rubbed his eyes cautiously, and said, "Maybe it's because I practiced too much these days, and my head kept hitting the ball, so I got bruised."

After the reporters looked at each other, they said, "There is a specialization in the art industry. Although Lin, your jumping ability has always been very good, it seems that heading has never been your strong point, right? Shouldn't this kind of thing be handed over to someone who is better at it?" Is it?"

"Vincenzo is not here, the team's ability to grab points with headers is a bit weak, and the results of the transfer from the youth team are too slow, so I want to make up for it through more training." After being surprised, Lin Zhigao asked in confusion: "Why do you have such expressions? Is what I said strange?"

In fact, it's not very strange, it's too strange-the reporters simply don't believe that Lin Zhigao will improve his heading skills after a period of training.The long-standing concept made reporters preconceived that heading the ball has always been the strength of high center forwards, and if you want to become a high center forward, 190 is too short. Although Lin Zhigao is not short, he can add sneakers without 185. Well... They even thought that Capello's going to the youth team to select a high center forward to the first team was more reliable than letting Lin Zhigao play in person.

Seeing the obvious doubts in the eyes of the reporters, Lin Zhigao felt very hurt. He stopped accepting interviews from anyone, opened the car door silently and drove away from the scene.After the reporters went back, they also sorted out the interviews and published them in the newspapers. "Turin Sports News" wrote an article "Lin worked hard to practice his header skills and vowed to be an all-round striker?" Directly "don't buy a high center forward, Juventus wants to use Lin's header skills to break the iron barrel formation", the words in these reports are very... intriguing, and after publication, they have also guided a considerable part of the public opinion.

It is normal to think that Juventus is rushing to the doctor in a hurry. Lin Zhigao has always performed outstandingly, and Capello really used him as a panacea. After the next round of the league, Capello and Lin Zhigao must They will pay for their recklessness.Or Lin Zhigao has the intention of being an all-round forward, but he let the media know that it is obviously not true, but just to create some psychological pressure on the opponent.

There are also those conspiracy theorists who suspect that Juventus must have transferred people from the youth team to the first team as a secret weapon long ago, but they just don't want others to know before the game, so they are using Lin Zhigao as a smoke bomb!

These off-topic reports and public opinion made many Juventus players burst into laughter—someone actually suspected that the injury on Lin Zhigao's forehead was not a training injury, and he was putting gold on his face?This is really... As teammates who train with Lin Zhigao every day, no one knows better than them what kind of madman Lin Zhigao will be when he devotes himself to training!The bruises on his forehead were really watched by his teammates, from light to heavy bit by bit. Of course, the speed of Lin Zhigao's header technique is also obvious to all.

……

The new prince of the Bianconeri has recently once again led the trend of public opinion. His league goals, his Champions League results, and his friendship with superstars have always been topics of discussion. Recently, his header Technology is back in the spotlight.The reason is that the young Juventus core said "I want to use my header to help the team break the opponent's defensive tactics". Such a simple sentence has been interpreted by different people with different meanings. Watching him continue to create miracles, some people want to see his jokes...

No need to wait until the start of the next round of the league, the second round of the Coppa Italia semi-final will start soon, and people are just in this game to observe whether Juventus's tactics have been adjusted, because they don't know if they have been affected. Affected by the recent atmosphere, Palermo coach Del Rio Rossi did not expect everyone in the game, and put on a defensive posture.

In the commentary room of CCTV, Liu Jianhong and Zhang Lu were chatting. After looking at the starting lineups of both teams, Liu Jianhong said: "Juventus' starting lineup has not been adjusted, and Capello has not changed from outside as speculated. The youth team selected players to be transferred to the first team. It seems that the rumors copied by the Italian media a while ago are actually nonsense. However, Palermo has put forward intensive defensive tactics... Recently, Serie A What happened to the coaches? The sun in the Apennine Peninsula is too hot, and they are so lazy that they just want to stay in the half court without moving."

Zhang Lu smiled: "Who made our Lin Zhigao so good? The historical records of Italian football have been smashed by a Chinese. It is estimated that many head coaches are suffocating. To be honest, the last two Juventus games Although Tusi played very frustrated, I feel very proud in my heart, because how difficult Lin Zhigao will face in the game, it means how much his enemies value him."

The referee blew his whistle, and the semi-final of the Coppa Italia, the second round match between Juventus and Palermo officially started.

Liu Jianhong and Zhang Lu also stopped talking and focused all their attention on the game.

Palermo kicked off the ball first, Miccoli received the pass from his teammate, and passed the ball to the side to avoid Marchisio's tackle.Palermo player Pisano broke through with the ball from the side, met Chiellini and Pepe's double sniper, and when he was about to pass the ball back, Pepe broke the ball with a sliding tackle!

After Pepe took the ball, he made a cross immediately. Verratti took the ball forward and made a through pass near the center line. The ball jumped to Lin Zhigao's feet.

Lin Zhigao hesitated for a moment, but continued to run forward with the ball. When he was 27 meters away from the goal, four Palermo central defenders outflanked him. Lin Zhigao observed that the situation was wrong and had to shoot. !

The football didn't even reach the goal before it was blocked by the hustle and bustle of the wall in the Palermo penalty area.

"Human sea tactics are the most invincible." Liu Jianhong said with emotion.

In other countries, as soon as Lin Zhigao lost the ball, many impatient commentators jumped out and commented: "Looking at the situation at the beginning of the game, Juventus may still want to use long-range shots to solve the problem." Intensive defense, but I have to say that the first shot Lin tried was really bad, I don't think Juventus can break through Palermo's goal in a short time."

Just when the voices of these commentators fell, Palermo failed to counterattack. Pirlo took the ball and suddenly made a long pass in the midfield. The football flew high in the air and rushed towards the Palermo penalty area. At the front of the restricted area in Palermo, a man in a black and white swordsman shirt has already bounced off the turf!

"It's Lin Zhigao! When did he run into the restricted area of ​​Palermo?"

"What is he going to do? Head the ball to the top?"

That's right!While the defenders of Palermo were all focusing on the midfield, Lin Zhigao held his breath, tightened his waist and abdomen muscles, jumped from the ground, and when he rose into the air, it happened to be at the same height as Pirlo's pass , he aimed the side of his forehead at the middle of the football, and shook his head towards the goal!

Like a cannonball, the football tore through Palermo's defense in an instant. After flying past several central defenders, it hit the crossbar hard!

Palermo goalkeeper Viviano was immediately relieved.

The fans and reporters were surprised-the header came right away?Lin Zhigao's efficiency was a bit too fast just after leaving the training ground and on the field, even though he didn't score the goal...

"Oh! What a pity! This ball is just a little short!"

"Lin Zhigao's head-shaking posture is really chic and beautiful. It's not 01:30 better than his previous header! It seems that Lin Zhigao has really worked hard to improve his heading skills recently."

Seeing that the ball missed, Lin Zhigao immediately turned around to assist in returning to defense.

He was a little disappointed that the goal was missed, but not that disappointed.Although he has scored eight of ten header shots in training, he also knows that it is only in training, and it is different from the situation on the field, and there are more than 80 minutes left in the game. He has plenty of time, doesn't he?

After running among the teammates, Peipei and others looked at Lin Zhigao with surprise on their faces: "The training results came out so quickly! You guys can do it!"

"Shall we keep passing the lob?"

"I change the long-range header, you can pass it as you want." Lin Zhigao smiled very ambitiously: "It's okay to shoot at me as much as you want!"
