At 20:00 on August 6, 2011, at the National Stadium in the Imperial Capital of China, the Italian Super Cup officially started.
The two sides in the game are last season's league and cup double champions Juventus, and cup runner-up AC Milan.
In this game, both teams sent their absolute main players to the stage, and the two sides ushered in a big battle.
AC Milan sent out its main players, Ibrahimovic, Cassano, Gattuso, Nesta, Robinho...all the stars appeared on the stage.
On Juventus' side, they also sent out a luxurious main lineup.
However, compared with last season, the lineup has changed slightly. Guti, who was slightly injured before the game, was not included in the squad. His starting position was replaced by new aid Pirlo. Last season he was the core midfielder of rival AC Milan, and now he has changed into the Bianconeri jersey.
On the defense line, Motta, who had a cold before the game, sat on the bench, and new summer aid Lichtsteiner got the chance to start.
The starting players at other positions are generally the same as last season.
From the first minute of this game, the two teams went back and forth and played very openly.
I don’t know if it’s because the players of the two teams are more excited, or because the coaches of the two teams are trying to please the Chinese fans, so they make the game more positive and enjoyable.
In the 12th minute of the game, Juventus' offensive trident provided a wonderful cooperation.
Piero played a one-two with Raul on the left and found Trezeguet with a cross. The French center jumped high and headed the ball into the net.
1 to 0! Juventus takes the lead!
In the 19th minute, the AC Milan star also performed a magical performance.
The Swedish god Tayib received an opportunity that was not a chance. It was a 45-degree pass outside the penalty area. Cassano's pass was slightly backward. The ball was some distance away from Ibrahimovic, but Ibrahimovic suddenly retreated. Before Metzelder grabbed the ball and before the ball hit the ground, he unexpectedly half-turned and fired a volley, and the ball blasted away the goal guarded by Buffon!
1 to 1! The two teams are back on the same starting line!
Less than 20 minutes into the game, both teams scored a goal each. The game was so exciting!
Juventus fans accounted for the majority in the stands, but there were also many AC Milan fans. Many people turned to support Juventus because of Yunsheng, but countless loyal Milan fans were still full of red and black blood.
In everyone's opinion, this game will definitely be an offensive battle, and the number of goals in this game will definitely be indispensable.
Unexpectedly, what happened next was beyond everyone's expectations.
Only three minutes after AC Milan equalized the game, Juventus took the lead again.
This time it was Raul who took the ball with his back. He passed the ball back to Pirlo who was inserted in the back row, and then quickly turned and moved forward.
Pirlo made a light pass without stopping the ball, and Raul made a light volley. The ball bypassed the hands of goalkeeper Abbiati and fell into the net.
2 to 1! Raul easily overtakes the score!
At this time, in the live broadcast room of China Sports Five, the commentator kept praising this goal.
"This immediately shows the difference between a star and a player. Although this action seems casual, it is very difficult to do."
Five minutes later, another long-distance pass from Pirlo penetrated AC Milan's defense. The young Abate fell to the ground to tackle the ball without touching the ball. The ball landed accurately at the feet of Del Piero. .
Piero suddenly cut inside and shot in the "Piero" area that everyone is very familiar with, and the ball hit the net!
3 to 1! The Juventus captain's goal hit an absolute blind spot!
The celebrating Piero ran past, and the young Abate got up from the ground dejectedly.
When the team needed to equalize the game, he conceded another goal due to a mistake.
At this time, in the live broadcast room of China Sports Five, the commentator sighed repeatedly.
"As a young player, it's okay if you make him the icing on the cake, but if you ask him to help him when it's time, it'll be a bit difficult for him."
After Juventus took the lead, AC Milan's offense became more fierce. In a collision, Trezeguet was knocked to the ground by Gattuso and could not get up for a long time.
Yunsheng quickly asked Van Persie to come on as a substitute and replaced Trezeguet. After diagnosis by the team doctor, Trezeguet's injury should not be serious and he will be fine after a week of rest.
After Trezeguet left the field, Juventus' offense not only did not weaken, but became more intense and more threatening.
Van Persie, who came on as a substitute in the 35th minute of the game, became the protagonist of the next ten minutes.
Within ten minutes, he received two passes from Pirlo and used long shots and headers to penetrate AC Milan's goal twice, helping the team continue to expand its lead!
5 to 1! Robin van Persie scored twice, Juventus is far ahead!
When the final whistle blew in the first half, the AC Milan fans in the stands were stunned.
It only took 45 minutes for the team to fall behind by four goals?
what is happening?
But what they didn't expect was that the painful thing was not over yet.
Just at the beginning of the second half, Ibrahimovic took a powerful long-range shot from outside the penalty area and hit the anti-aircraft gun.
At this time, in the live broadcast room of China Sports Five, the commentator shook his head repeatedly.
"Ibrahimovic, Ibrahimovic, it won't work if he scores one goal."
In fact, it's not that Ibrahimovic didn't perform well, but that Juventus' defense performed too well today.
Not to mention Ibrahimovic, even offensive players such as Robinho, Seedorf and Boateng did not get any chance.
But they didn't expect that Ibrahimovic's shot turned out to be AC Milan's only shot in the second half!
Because the team was far ahead in the first half, Yunsheng made substitution adjustments during the halftime break and played the last two cards in one go.
Zheng Zhi replaced Raul and became one of the team's two shadow forwards; Ronaldinho replaced Diego and played left midfielder.
After the two came on the court, the team's offense continued to strengthen.
In the next 20 minutes, Juventus scored three goals in a row and continued to expand their lead.
It is worth mentioning that these three goals were all assisted by Ronaldinho and scored by Zheng Zhi!
In his first game after joining the team, Ronaldinho scored a hat-trick of assists in just 20 minutes!
In front of his hometown elders, Zheng Zhi, Juventus' fourth captain and captain of the Chinese national team, scored three goals in a row and performed a hat trick!
The game only lasted less than 70 minutes, and Juventus was far ahead!
8 to 1! Juventus went crazy in this game!
The Juventus fans in the stands cheered wildly. They saw a game that would last a lifetime!
AC Milan on the side were dumbfounded. When they saw Zheng Zhi scoring three goals in a row, they didn't know whether they should applaud Zheng Zhi or mourn for AC Milan...
Now all the fans in the audience have the same idea in their minds.
Is this match the Italian Super Cup?
Or, a friendly match?
