Among Juventus' front three today, Robin van Persie still struggled to score in the Champions League. Del Piero fell into the opponent's lethal defense. After that, Raul was in the best form.
Raul showed no fear in the face of Atletico Madrid's fierce tackles. In a physical confrontation with Miranda just now, he was hit hard in the lower abdomen by his opponent's arm and couldn't get up for a long time.
Although Miranda received a yellow card, Yun Sheng was quite worried about Raul's situation.
After the team doctor checked and determined that there was no problem, Raul ran to the court again, returned to Atletico Madrid's penalty area, and continued to wait for the opportunity to score.
The visiting team players watching the game in the stands continued to applaud, and some neutral fans wearing white jerseys also applauded and blessed Raul.
If it were other Atletico Madrid games, these fans wearing white jerseys would not come to watch the game, but today is different. Their prince returned to Madrid again. Although the jerseys on his body have added many black elements, but in the eyes of the fans In my heart, that is still the Bernabeu prince with fluttering white clothes.
Listening to the applause from the stands, Yun Sheng turned around and nodded with emotion: "In this city, Gonzalez's influence has already exceeded the limit of ordinary football players. He is the symbol and legend of this city. .”
Infected by Raul's fighting spirit, the momentum of the Juventus team also increased. The defensive triangle headed by Ballack, Metzelder and Barzagli teamed up to cut off two threatening attacks from Atletico Madrid. , neither Costa nor Tiger Falcao, who is in excellent form, can get a good chance near Juventus' penalty area.
The two full-backs on the left and right, Chiellini and Lichtsteiner, also fought fiercely.
Yun Sheng has already told the players that although Atletico Madrid's "mad dog tactics" are difficult to deal with, their weaknesses are equally obvious.
The limitation is that the Atletico Madrid team is not too fast. If the team can play Barcelona's fast passing and receiving coordination, the team can quickly tear apart Atletico Madrid's defense, but this method requires extremely high technical requirements. .
Secondly, Atletico Madrid's full-court press is very energy-consuming. When the game is about to end, Atletico Madrid's defensive pressure will be great, and Juventus' possibility of scoring will increase a lot. If you want to consume the physical strength of Atletico Madrid players as quickly as possible, you need to schedule more long passes, increase Atletico Madrid's running distance, control the rhythm, and consume the physical strength of Atletico Madrid players more and faster.
Therefore, Yunsheng had no intention of deciding the outcome quickly in the first half. He had to be patient in a war of attrition with Atletico Madrid.
When the referee blew the whistle to end the first half, neither team was able to score.
Back in the locker room, Yun Sheng once again made a request to the midfielder and frontcourt: "Ronaldo and Del Piero, although you are caught in the fierce attack of Atletico Madrid, you can use your personal skills to seek breakthroughs. If not, create more arbitrary The ball opportunities are also good, and now we have many free kick masters in the team. We used this method to overtake Porto in the last game."
After the start of the second half, Yunsheng's arrangement did have a good effect.
Ronaldinho continued to make wonderful passing moves on the wing, and Del Piero created opportunities through constant inward cuts. They got several free kicks from far or near positions, but they were unable to score.
I wonder if it was because in the last game against Porto, the team ran out of luck on free kicks...
The two teams remained in a stalemate until the 70th minute, with no change in the score.
Now not only the physical fitness of Atletico Madrid players has seriously declined, but many Juventus players are also panting.
Yunsheng replaced several veterans in advance. Raul and Ronaldinho took a rest, and Yu Dabao and Guti came on the bench.
Yu Dabao lurked behind Van Persie, and Yun Sheng hoped that his good luck would help the team score a goal.
Guti's appearance is also because of his relationship with Atletico Madrid. As a die-hard Real Madrid supporter, Guti is particularly enthusiastic every time he plays Atletico Madrid. After coming on as a substitute today, he fiercely tackled Koke during the midfield battle with Koke and received a yellow card.
Yun Sheng on the sidelines looked at Guti from a distance, feeling very depressed.
He received a yellow card less than a minute after playing. It will be difficult to play next.
In fact, the evaluation of Guti in international football has always been polarized.
Some people say that Guti is definitely a world-class star, but some people say that Guti is just a good player, second-rate at best, not top at all.
But a more objective comment is that Guti, who does not lose his temper, is a world-class top star, while Guti, who is hot-headed, directly reduces his dimension...
When he was at Real Madrid, Guti also often received red cards and was sent off because of his bad temper, or got into entanglements with opponents and forgot what he should have done.
Yunsheng also took this into consideration in this game and did not let Guti start. It would be okay if it was a league game, at least there would be room for error, but every game in the Champions League group stage is critical and there is no room for negligence.
After all, he is an unstable factor, and Yun Sheng does not dare to take risks.
Now that Guti is put on the stage, Yun Sheng also wants to see which Guti is today.
However, it turns out that Guti was probably not in the best condition today, and Yunsheng’s bet was lost...
In the 80th minute of the game, Yunsheng made another adjustment. He replaced Ballack and let younger midfielder Marchisio come on.
Marchisio and Pirlo often partner in the midfield in the national team. The two work well together, especially Marchisio's offensive and defensive balance, which is suitable for dealing with this situation.
Now the game is advancing minute by minute, and it is getting closer and closer to the end of the game.
Marchisio and Pirlo, who had just come on the field, passed each other around. Under Atletico Madrid's crazy pressing, it was difficult for them to get the ball out.
At this moment, Pirlo suddenly lifted the ball to the left!
Guti catches the ball and drives forward at high speed!
Everyone focused on the midfielder and ignored Guti, who had not performed well just now!
There are no defensive players around Guti!
Guti dribbled the ball forward quickly and passed the midfield line!
Atletico Madrid right back Juanfran rushed forward! Guti didn't ask for help and directly chose to cross the ball at a 45-degree angle!
Van Persie jumped high in the middle of the penalty area. He was near the penalty spot, which was a good position for a header!
Courtois fought hard to get the ball before Van Persie's header!
Central defender Godin is also struggling to stay in position, not giving Van Persie a chance to header!
The three of them collided and fell to the ground. No one touched the ball!
The ball continues to fly towards the back point...
In an instant, a figure rushed over like lightning, leaping to the top!
The ball went in! ! !
It's Yu Dabao! ! !
