Although the welcome ceremony was warm, it did not last long. Yun Sheng did not want to delay the players' warm-up time, so he exited to the side of the court as soon as possible.
Except for several new players in the past two seasons, the entire Monaco team is very familiar with Yunsheng. At the side of the court, they hugged and shook hands with Yun Sheng as he walked off the court, without any sense of tension in the game.
While the two teams were warming up, all the major media and TV stations invariably played the classic scenes of Yunsheng during his coaching career at Monaco and Juventus before the live broadcast, including goals and championships, although the game was still far away. It lasted half an hour, but the fans did not feel anxious, but watched with gusto.
The players from both sides entered the locker room to make final preparations. In the live broadcast room of Italian Football Sports 3, Di Livio and Vieri analyzed the situation of the game.
"Today Juventus arranged a 4-3-2-1 formation: goalkeeper Buffon, defenders from left to right are Riise, Barzagli, Metzelder and Lichtsteiner, and the three midfielders are from left to right. From left to right are Ronaldinho, Pirlo and Ballack, the two shadow forwards are Del Piero and Raul, and the center Van Persie. On the bench are Trezeguet, Diego, Yu Dabao, Vidal and other stars .”
"Juventus' lineup today is almost unchanged from before. In Yunsheng's starting lineup, except Ronaldinho and Diego, who will adjust according to the opponent's technical characteristics, the main candidates have been locked in other positions early. And the main left Defender Chiellini was slightly injured and was unable to come to Monaco with the team for this game, so Yunsheng sent former Monaco star Riise to take his place."
"Monaco's formation today is a 4-3-3 formation: goalkeeper Hildebrand, defenders from left to right are Li Xuepeng, Senderos, Ujfalusi and Zhang Linpeng, and the three midfielders are Mendy and Foley. Ramini and Ljungberg, the three forwards are Saviola, Gudjohnsen and Sun Ke. On the bench sit Germain, Zeng Cheng, Gakpe and other young players, ready to go."
"It is worth mentioning that among Monaco's starting players today, except for Sun Ke and Li Xuepeng, the other nine players are all players from the Yunsheng era. Yunsheng is very familiar with them, and the two young Chinese players Sun Ke Yunsheng also knows Li Xuepeng very well, and it was Yunsheng who helped them join Monaco."
"What's even more interesting is that in today's game, not only is Yun Sheng very familiar with his opponent, but the players from the two teams are also very familiar with each other. Especially the offensive players on both sides. They were rivals in La Liga a few years ago, but now they have switched sides. , left his old club."
"Juventus and Monaco each have a former Real Madrid and Barcelona player. Monaco has Barcelona forward Gudjohnsen and Real Madrid forward Saviola. Although Saviola also played for Barcelona, since he moved to Real Madrid, Barcelona fans will never want to see him again."
"In Juventus, they have the former Barcelona star Ronaldinho and the former Bernabeu prince Raul. This combination is even more shining. The main offensive players of both teams were once opponents in La Liga, and now they are Becoming teammates, becoming rivals with former teammates... Oh my god, this commentary is so difficult to describe..."
In the live broadcast room, the commentator is analyzing the game, and in the locker room, the head coaches of both sides are also making final tactical arrangements.
Yun Sheng looked around and looked at each player seriously: "Guys, I don't think I need to say more about Monaco's strength. They have a world-class goalkeeper, and they have won the FIFA Best Eleven of the Year for two consecutive years. Everyone has their defenders, and the offensive players in the midfield and frontcourt are also very strong. You must not take this game lightly!"
"But I have great confidence in you, because we know Monaco well enough! In the past few days, I have often told you about the opponent's playing habits. They are my former players. I know them very well. You just need to know them correctly. With your own kicking style, you will definitely be able to defeat them!"
At this time in the home team's locker room, Makelele's expression was much more serious: "Guys, although we are at home in this game, we still have many disadvantages, such as the opponent's coach and players knowing us too well. But despite this, we cannot deliberately give up the familiar tactics just to prevent them from figuring it out. This is completely a waste of time!"
"So I ask you not to think too much about this game! As long as you maximize your technical characteristics, there will be no problem in this game! Having said that, let alone Juventus, which of our opponents doesn't understand us? But then again Who is sure to kill us? I have full confidence in you. We will definitely win this game and get enough goal difference!"
The players from both sides walked out of the locker room and ran onto the court. The referee's whistle sounded and the game began!
"Monaco took the lead in this game! Their offensive trident was so powerful! They stormed towards Juventus' backcourt at the beginning!"
"The continuous passes between Ljungberg and Gudjohnsen, Gudjohnsen shook off Ballack! His dribble was so beautiful! These two players, both 34 years old and also playing for Chelsea, played in the Champions League today We met on the field, and the Icelanders won for the first time!”
"Gudjohnsen's shot! Buffon held the ball firmly! He didn't pause and quickly threw the ball!"
"Ronaldo on the left received the ball, and he dribbled the ball forward! Flamini and Mendy stepped forward! Ronaldinho deftly pulled the ball past people! He shook off Monaco's two defensive midfielders! This It’s so important to excel!”
"Pass the ball to Raul on the right side of the penalty area. Raul kicks and volleys! The angle is very tricky!"
"Hildebrand picked up the ball with a relaxed body and made a flawless save!"
"Within two minutes, the midfielders and frontcourts of the two teams each contributed a wonderful offensive cooperation, and the goalkeepers of both sides also showed world-class strength! These two goalkeepers who are rivals at the national team level and have a good personal relationship, today they The performance of both teams is the key to whether the two teams can maintain a solid defense.”
Just five minutes into the game, the two teams each had a wonderful shot, threatening the other side's goal.
Then, the offensive of both sides continued, and Monaco, which was relatively unpopular before the game, took the initiative in this game.
"Monaco's offense is back! Flamini just tackled Van Persie fiercely. These two former Arsenal teammates showed no mercy on the court today!"
"Flamini passed the ball to another former Arsenal teammate, Ljungberg, who passed the ball straight to Gudjohnsen! Will the Icelandic shoot again?"
"Gudjohnsen didn't shoot, he knocked the ball across to Saviola! The Argentine used his speed to get rid of Metzelder, and he faced goalkeeper Buffon alone!"
"Volley to the near corner! Buffon blocked the shot with his chest! The Italian goalkeeper has done a great job!"
