Returning to Turin from Ukraine, Juventus temporarily focuses on the league.
In the weekend league, Yunsheng formed a substitute lineup to deal with it.
The team is facing a multi-front battle this season. It must start to adjust the players' physical fitness and condition from the beginning of the season. It will be too late to make adjustments when the three-line battle is in the second half.
In the fifth round of Serie A at the weekend, Juventus' opponent was Parma.
Last season, Parma relied on the outstanding performance of several veterans. They performed well in the first half of the league and seemed to have a chance to compete for a ticket to the European Cup. However, as veterans were injured and retired in the second half of the league, the team's final performance continued to decline, ranking 12th at the end of the season.
In this game, Yunsheng sent many young players, Marchisio, Bonucci, Vidal and other players all appeared. In addition, veterans such as Trezeguet, Guti, Riise also all appeared.
Last season Guti and Trezeguet were the absolute main players of the team, but this season under the strong competitive pressure, they became rotation players. However, even so, they still performed well when they appeared in the rotation and maintained At the top level of Serie A.
On the front line, Yun Sheng arranged for Yu Dabao to start in this game.
With Parma starting in an average state, Yun Sheng felt that Yu Dabao could still play against a team of this strength.
From the first minute of this game, Juventus occupied an absolute dominance.
Although there were occasionally two opportunities for Parma to counterattack, the young goalkeeper Costantino performed well and firmly saved all the opponent's shots.
Juventus's offense was extremely efficient, with several attempts on goal only missing a goal.
In the 21st minute of the game, Juventus finally scored. During an attack from the left, Guti shook off the defender and suddenly made a trademark long pass to find Trezeguet in the penalty area. France The veteran shot directly without stopping the ball, and the ball hit the far corner of the goal!
1 to 0! Juventus takes the lead!
In the 37th minute of the game, it was another long overhead pass from Guti. Yu Dabao, who was on the right side of the penalty area, quickly moved forward. After stopping the ball, he dunked inside and shot into the far corner!
2 to 0! Juventus expanded its lead!
When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, Juventus returned to the locker room with a two-goal advantage.
In the second half, the game changed sides and Juventus quickly scored another goal.
This time it was the cooperation between Marchisio and Pepe. The pair of Italian internationals had a tacit understanding of passing and running. In the end, Pepe succeeded with a volley from the near corner near the small penalty area!
3 to 0! Juventus has completely sealed the victory in this game!
Seeing that the team was sure to win, Yun Sheng also relaxed. The players continued to attack on the court and had no intention of relaxing. This kind of game spirit even made Yun Sheng happier than the three-goal lead.
Next, Yunsheng made substitution adjustments. He replaced Guti, the absolute core midfielder who contributed two assists in this game, and sent Grosso to play in the left midfield position.
Grosso was very excited after receiving Yunsheng's instructions!
Great, I can finally attack with all my strength!
He has always been interested in offense, and now Yunsheng has arranged for him to replace Guti in the midfield to lead the offense. Of course he is very happy.
At the same time as Grosso came on, Yun Sheng replaced central defender Decelli, asked Motta to play central defender, and then replaced Zhang Chengdong.
This adjustment is very meaningful. This season Yunsheng is trying different lineups, especially the faster Motta as a central defender.
At present, Juventus's several central defenders are all tall and powerful. They have strong defensive ability, but they will always suffer some disadvantages when encountering such dexterous forwards. They let Motta, who is faster and more dexterous, serve as central defender. , which can increase the flexibility of defense and allow more changes in the lineup.
And the young Chinese right back Zhang Chengdong is the right back that Yunsheng focuses on training.
To be fair, Zhang Chengdong is definitely not at the level of a Juventus player now. Even compared with substitute players, he is far behind. However, Yun Sheng always sends him out to learn and practice when the game is settled. In recent times, Zhang Chengdong has improved significantly. Soon, when facing some average offensive players from mid-to-lower Serie A teams, most of the time they were able to handle it with ease.
The most important thing is that because Zhang Chengdong has played in Portugal, he has the football ideas of European players in his mind. This kind of Chinese players who have played in Europe are obviously better aware than domestic players.
After the two came on the field, the already defeated Parma did not bring them much danger. Instead, in the 80th minute of the game, with Trezeguet's header, Juventus scored another goal to lock the final score. 4 to 0.
They won Parma 4-0 in the fifth round of the league, and a week later they easily won Siena in the sixth round of the league.
As a newly promoted team from Serie B this season, Siena has just played six rounds of the league and has already begun its journey to avoid relegation.
They have only picked up one point from their previous five games and their relegation situation is in jeopardy.
In this game, they wanted to hold on, get a point from Juventus, and hold on to a draw, which was enough.
Turns out they thought too much.
A crisp 4-0 made Siena's relegation situation even more serious...
