Although the wind was strong in the Port of Naples in March, it had warmed up and made people feel good.
After arriving in Naples, Chen Long thought he would be attacked like a flood. Unexpectedly, the team bus drove quietly to the hotel, and there was no abnormal situation from beginning to end.
I think Maradona's role played a role, otherwise Chenlong Juventus would not have arrived here safely so easily.
This was surprising enough, but after Chenlong checked into the hotel.
The Naples Football Association called and invited Chenlong to attend a youth football match ceremony.
Although he had hatred against the Neapolitans, as a representative of Italian football, he still accepted the invitation generously.
That night, Chenlong appeared at the VIP table as promised.
Before taking the stage, Chen Long had already been recognized by many people.
This youth competition in Naples was just an ordinary folk event, but it was held in full swing and was very lively.
After Chen Long came on stage, the atmosphere exploded in the audience, no less than the atmosphere in his school yesterday.
Of course, he was already familiar with the lines.
It was just that I had no experience on stage for the first time, but naturally I was able to do it the second time.
Such an activity temporarily eased the emotions between Naples and Chen Long. After all, football is also a language and can also be turned into friendship.
But this atmosphere was only limited to that night.
the next day.
Juventus people still saw the home atmosphere of Naples.
If playing away games is the same as fighting, then Chen Long will definitely bring his youth army to fight. The stadium is almost full of Naples fans, and there is no black and white color at all.
Juventus fans, where are you? Marchisio shouted from the bench with a band-aid on his face.
According to a survey conducted by online media on fans' willingness to watch away games, although Juventus has the honor of having the largest fan base in Italy, it is also the club with the fewest away fans...
This data embarrasses the Juventus senior management, which seems to be contradictory.
But upon closer analysis, it makes sense.
Juventus has always been a wealthy club with strong strength. Even if they go to an away game, Juventus will still win the game. Therefore, Juventus fans have become accustomed to such results over time and are too lazy to go to the away game to cheer for the team. At home, Juventus fans have the lowest attendance. Of course, this was only the year before last.
Since last year, Juventus has been very popular at home after moving into the new stadium Turin Municipal Stadium.
Now, after Agnelli sells home tickets to fans of away teams, Juventus is almost unable to get tickets during game weeks. Some fans even have to buy tickets from away team fans or scalpers. Buy it at a high price there... ..
Marchisio was looking forward to seeing what happened, but of course he couldn't find any fans to come out, so he sat back on the bench in disappointment.
It is said that this guy recovered the fastest after being beaten last time.
It's just that he suffered multiple injuries on his face. After a few days of treatment, he is now clamoring to be a substitute even with band-aids on.
Although he was accidentally slapped on the face by his teammates while fighting for the ball in yesterday's training, he still endured the pain and persisted until the end.
Conte saw that Marchisio was so brave and eager to fight, so he put him on the substitute list.
Vidal was not so lucky. He was still lying in bed and could not recover in time, but even so, Juventus still had enough player options to deal with Naples.
This is also a game that cannot be lost.
A draw is slightly more acceptable.
Today Conte made a bold adjustment, which was to put the alien on the bench, and his replacement was Jordan.
Conte squeezed out a 4,32,2 formation, and the new Jordan played the same attacking midfielder position as Ronaldinho. With an old man and a young man teaming up, there may be speed and passion.
After all, Naples' powerful attacking formation is no joke.
Before the players took the field, Conte specifically told the team's two central defenders, Chiellini and Barzagli, not to let Cavani easily take the ball and turn around.
In the hands of Vidal, Caceres got the chance to play and stood in the defensive midfielder position to partner with Pirlo.
For the midfielder, Conte also chose the new Ghanaian foreign aid, Asamoah, who is only 20 years old, as the left midfielder.
Ronaldinho and Jordan partnered as an attacking midfielder, and Matri took the lead on the forward line.
Although such a lineup is not very impactful, it is better because of its solid defense and strong midfield control.
After the game started, Napoli was like a madman, madly attacking the hinterland of Juventus.
It's only two minutes into the game.
Conte asked the two central defenders to pay attention to Cavani, who found an excellent opportunity in the middle.
His body is there, stronger than Barzagli and the others. Although Juventus's two central defenders are good in height, they are still slightly lacking in body. Cavani just squeezed forward and squeezed out a chance. .
If the game hadn't just started and Cavani's state hadn't entered so quickly, Juventus' goal would have been lost.
But Juventus was not a vegetarian and immediately fought back.
Jordan, who made his second start this season, received a pass from Cáceres, and after a continuous one-two with Ronaldinho, he easily reached the Naples goal.
This was a very good two-on-two opportunity, but Ronaldinho failed to follow up.
But there was Matri standing in front of him.
Jordan wanted to put the ball at Matri's feet.
Unfortunately, Matri's running position was really bad. He didn't move forward diagonally. He just stood there, waiting for Jordan to hit the ball...
Football IQ is very particular. Some people just can't understand the true meaning of football. Matri obviously belongs to one of them.
He thinks that his header is very good, and then fighting for the header in the crowd is definitely the best way to shoot.
But Jordan disagrees. Like many senior masters, real masters will not immediately think of using a header to complete a shot. Scoring with their feet is always their favorite way.
Obviously, Matri is not one of them.
There was no way. Jordan had no intention of passing the high ball, so after hesitating for a moment, he chose to dunk lightly to the left, get out of the way, and shoot directly.
It's a pity that the shot was not powerful enough, otherwise the goalkeeper would have been beyond his reach and would not have been able to save it.
At the beginning of the game, the players couldn't let go, but their energy must be very strong, so the offensive rhythm of both sides was very fast. The difference was that the entire Naples team participated in the attack, and Juventus Si just invested about four and a half troops in the frontcourt...
Neither side took advantage, but Naples pressed forward with full force. The defense was relatively empty, and they had to be careful of Ronaldinho and Jordan's sneak attacks.
What would happen if there was a Ronaldo on the field
At this time, Ronaldo was on the bench, being massaged by a physical therapist. This was Conte's instruction. Ronaldo must be ready at any time, even if he has to go up and play for ten minutes.
It’s hard enough for this old man, who is already thirty-six years old and still has to fight hard. People who don’t know think that Ronaldo has no money and has to go back to work to earn some living expenses and pension funds... Of course, If everyone knew that his goal was the lofty 2014 World Cup, everyone would give him a thumbs up.
Chenlong played with his cell phone casually and was texting Swift to talk about romance and love.
Swift has been here for two days. Apart from walking with her around the school, eating, and making out with her at night, Chenlong didn't spend much time with her at other times, let alone shopping, which is the most terrifying thing in a man's heart.
At this time, I took advantage of the time and started making out with her, even though it was only through the phone...
The game was in full swing and it reached the eleventh minute.
There was still a loophole in Juventus's defense. Bonucci was passed by Lavezzi. It was still a particularly shameful way. He didn't even make a fake move or even change the line. Lavezzi The strange thing is to directly accelerate and cross in a straight line... ,
Poor Bonucci staggered and fell down without even turning around, without even a chance to catch up.
Of course, I don’t know if he did this on purpose. He knew he couldn’t catch up, so he might as well pretend to be down and not accept the insult again.
After breaking through Bonucci's defense, there was an empty grass field in front of Juventus, with only Buffon left.
Of course, Lavezzi's angle is already very small.
Chiellini and Barzagli didn't dare to separate one person to block him because they had to take special care of Cavani. Instead, Cáceres, who was returning to defense, had the instinct of a defender and kept chasing him. In front of the small penalty area, Lavezzi's passing route was finally blocked.
At a small angle, most players will choose to pass the ball, and it is usually a low ball.
A powerful kick into the small penalty area may be able to fish in troubled waters. Whether it is your own teammate or an opponent's player, it is possible to send the ball into the goal.
The Juventus players thought the same way, and their feet were ready to kick the ball out.
And Buffon also concentrated on the dense crowd in the small penalty area.
What I didn't expect was that Lavezzi directly chose to shoot towards the goal at almost zero angle.
The shot caught no one by surprise.
Although the speed of the ball was not very fast, it finally penetrated into the net from Buffon's right side and in front of the goal post...
Got fooled.
Lavezzi was so brave that he chose to shoot.
In the twelfth minute, the Naples people took the lead at home. There was a roar of carnival and the ground shook, as if the entire stadium was about to collapse.
