Part-time Soccer

Chapter 63: Yesterday reappears

Views:

At the pre-match press conference, Mazzarri claimed that he did not expect that the youth team game would be like that. He did not expect that the youth team members would be so shameless. He expressed that he was sad and regretful.

I still remember that at the last press conference, Mazzarri spoke very highly of Chenlong. If Mazzarri didn't instruct the young players to do this, it must have been other coaches who paid bad attention.

Such unsportsmanlike behavior is reviled by everyone.

In this competition, when will Chen Long appear on the court? Mazzarri is really worried about this. What kind of cards will Conte play

Fortunately, Conte has been sent to the stands and cannot direct the game on the spot. This is huge good news for Mazzarri.

Today was Conte's first time directing a game from the stands, so he was very cautious. When deploying troops, he chose a defensive-oriented formation, so there were as many as three defensive midfielders on the field.

At the Devil's home court in Naples, Juventus wants to take advantage and score goals, which is a very difficult task. It would have been difficult to beat Naples at home, but now on the road, if you don't act carefully, the results will be very dangerous.

As a shrewd old fox, Conte will never have a big confrontation with Naples on the road. Defense is the foundation. To force a draw is the best result.

Mazzarri is just the opposite. Taking advantage of the home court, he is thinking about avenging the last defeat. If he does not give the fans a wonderful victory at home, then his position as head coach will be different. The storm is about to fall.

Naturally, Chen Long would not be sent on the field by Conte from the beginning. As far as he knew, after the last game, Chen Long actually lay on his bed for an hour before recovering. This time, he really didn't have the guts to use Chen Long randomly again. Dragon.

This game is very important. If he loses, Conte's position may be completely gone. It is impossible for Juventus to want a head coach who cannot direct the game. The overall interests are placed there. Juventus will not do it for Conte also received an ultimatum from the club before the game to abandon one person's friendship and give up the interests of the entire team.

But even so, Conte still appeared in the first row of the audience in a suit and leather tie, very close to the coaching bench. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is for the convenience of directing the game.

The game finally started. Juventus took a defensive stance from the beginning, while Naples went crazy into attacking the moment the whistle blew.

At this time, half of the Juventus players on the field are Conte's favorites and best friends, and they are "comrades" wearing the same pants. Don't forget that they have an unknown secret in private, that is, absolute Don't lose the game easily.

Facing Naples, who were like wolves and tigers seeking revenge, they seemed very calm. When two tigers fight, one of them will lose, but they firmly believe that they will definitely not be the losers!

Compared with last season, Juventus has a top killer in the lineup, which is unmatched by other forwards. As a world-class striker, Higuain puts a lot of pressure on Naples. Higuain is a player who is used to defensive counterattacks. This person has received personal guidance from Mourinho during his years at Real Madrid and will never do anything on the court.

In terms of defense, the Italian team will definitely not be worse than any team in the world, even the team under Mourinho's personal command. What's more, this Juventus midfielder and backfield are almost the entire defense line of the Italian national team? As long as Juventus doesn't press forward and hide in the backcourt, Napoli really can't take advantage of you, and you have to be careful of sudden counterattacks...

Conte had already figured out this wishful thinking a few days before the game. It was necessary not to lose, and he also had to keep his coaching position!

So Naples once again fell into a state of fruitless offense.

The calm Conte sat leisurely in the stands, watching the game like an ordinary Juventus fan. The opponent's head coach Mazzarri was not so calm. With so many offensive players in his hands, he was unable to open the opponent's goal. The entire first half passed in a chaotic and uneventful commotion. Countless passes were made, and as soon as the ball flew over Juventus, it was either resolved by Buffon or pushed out by those tall and powerful Italian defenders.

Such a result would be discouraging. Isn't there any way to break down Juventus' defense

At the end of the half, Mazzarri finally adjusted his offensive routine and said he would no longer hit over-the-top crosses. This move had no effect on Juventus.

Conte, who could only be in the stands, had no right to enter the locker room. Now he didn't even have an assistant coach, so he couldn't arrange any other tactics. He made a gesture to the tactical coach on the coaching bench, meaning It's just the second half as usual.

For a draw, Juventus can still do well. So when these players on the field had been shrinking and defending, Mazzarri waved his hand and sent all the offensive players to continue playing, seemingly starting an even more crazy attack.

In the confrontation between spear and shield, no one took advantage. The game continued to be anxious. No one could afford to lose, but only Naples wanted to win, and Juventus just wanted to keep a tie.

Except for the two central defenders who were clinging to Higuain, Naples' players all pressed up, attacking and attacking again. Naples changed their style of play and switched to a ground attack. It will be even more difficult to defend on the ground. Mazzarri has no shortage of breakthrough players. The tall Cavani is actually quite abnormal with his feet. He is a top-notch center.

Naples switched to a ground attack, making Juventus's front door full of turmoil and danger.

Juventus has no other solution except defense and clearance. In this way, the defending champion last season did not have any advantage in front of Naples, but the situation was in danger. But every member of Juventus is resolutely carrying out Conte's orders, and no one is lazy or fails to do their best.

A united team is formidable and has no weaknesses. So they finally insisted on Chen Long playing!

Conte had no tactics to speak of. He returned to the old routine again. According to his settings, Chenlong would come on the field in the last few minutes of the game. All the previous settings and preparations were for those last few minutes. Conte is a very bold gambler. He bet on his full defense for the first 85 minutes, and then bet on letting Chen Long play in the last few minutes.

Such a contradictory approach made the game take a turn for the worse.

Although Mazari liked Chen Long, when he saw Chen Long's appearance, he hated it in his heart. The pain from the last time has not been fully digested yet. Could it be that yesterday will happen again today

Is that boy who is slowly walking onto the field going to humiliate himself again
