Chapter 135 Italian Super Cup, Indigo Hunting Knife Boots(1/3)
On August 28, the Imperial Capital Bird's Nest Stadium.
"Hello everyone, everyone in front of the TV, yv5 Sports Channel, is playing the Italian Super Cup that is about to begin for you. I am your good friend, Huang Jianjun! Sitting on my left is the famous football commentator of "Super Football", Luo Cheng."
"Hello everyone, I'm Luo Cheng, I'm very happy to explain this game to you."
"Teacher Luo, what do you think about this game? Juventus and San Remo, who do you prefer?" Huang Jianjun asked.
Luo Cheng smiled and took out a San Remo support card and said, "I am the first San Remo fan in China for twenty years. Of course, I support San Remo."
"Of course, don't think I'm irrational. My support is actually well-founded."
"On Juventus, the team's first striker, the Zebra Prince Ancarelli, has not recovered yet. The team's top star, Italian goalkeeper Gianluigi Audi, suffered an injury during Juventus' U13 training camp, and broke his arm, so he rushed to the hospital and could not appear at the Bird's Nest Stadium."
"In addition, this summer, Juventus' former captain and defensive meritorious player Bernoulini transferred to San Remo. Their defensive lost the commander. I think San Remo will definitely score in this game!"
Luo Cheng is reasonable and has a profound understanding of the enemy. It is better to be an old Juventus fan for twenty years than an old San Remo.
Huang Jianjun has a different view on this: "You can't compare this way. To talk about personnel changes, San Remo's personnel changes have become more numerous this summer. They have introduced so many players, and they can't all be combined in a short while."
"Although Juventus has lost three superstars, their center is also strong. The Croatian striker Manju Jovic is definitely one of the most underrated players in Serie A! Looking at the world football world, he is one of the top ten most underrated stars!"
"He has the ability to destroy any defense with his own strength!"
"Also, don't forget that Juventus is a Serie A championship team, and San Remo has just been promoted to Serie B this year. What exactly they are still unknown."
Luo Cheng immediately retorted: "It is true that Juventus is the Serie A champion, but in this game they are more testing the abilities of new players and the team's new style of play. For them, the nature of warm-up is greater than the nature of the game."
"But for San Remo, this is an honor they are extremely eager for. The spiritual investment of both sides is extremely uneven, and I am more optimistic about San Remo, a group of players who are hungry for honor."
Both sides are back and forth, and no one is allowed to let each other, and the effect is very effective.
And the fans also discussed this.
This game is very popular and it can be said that it has caused a football storm throughout Asia.
The Korean and Japanese fans next to them are envious of domestic fans.
With the rise of the domestic economy, the importance of football matches, the star operation market, game time, broadcaster supply, etc., the domestic market has received preferential treatment from more large clubs and leagues.
This situation is all because of a small Serie B player Lu Yang.
Are players now so influential?
For a time, the Football Associations of these two countries contacted their players who played overseas and asked them to bring some games in their respective leagues to their own countries.
But the responses I received were basically "What are you thinking about?", "Are you crazy?", "I'm just a small substitute", "I'm a human, not a god!", "Is this something that a player can intervene?", "Even the chairman of my club doesn't have this ability."
After asking, everyone realized that, let alone Serie B players, even the main players of the five major league teams and even the core of the strong teams, they never had the right to senate in such matters.
Then why can Lu Yang?
After this research, some senior fans felt Brother Lu’s energy.
Playing football is not scary.
What's scary is that they also had benign and equal communication with bigwigs in their respective circles, such as Sotu, Maniro, Maldivney, Artsas, and Hans.
Discussion here, the competition has begun there.
In today's game, Juventus' formation is still their regular formation 4231.
However, the players of the game have changed a lot, with four new players, two substitutes and one youth training.
It can be said that Juventus played this game as a mock exam, and they wanted to find the team's problems and then make up for it. This season, their goal is to win the fourth consecutive championship in the league and compete for the Champions League!
So for an Italian Super Cup, they really disdain.
There are too many such trophys in Juventus' trophy showroom and they can't even put it down.
Similarly, San Remo on the other side also lined up a new and bold lineup.
It is the 352, or 3232 that were rumored before!
Double strikers Soger and Fernandez.
The midfielders are left back Lu Yang, front midfielder Moric and right back Kanyes.
Latuidi, Lam, Lam.
Third central defenders Bernoulini, Palacios, and Mattias.
In this lineup, Fernandez's starting lineup was not surprising.
San Remo plays multiple fronts this season, with Fernandez and Bajzami taking turns to play in various games.
Compared to Bajzami's impact, Fernandez is more suitable for team-style games, and he can perfectly cooperate with midfielders.
His appearance means that he will not become a burst point, but will be an auxiliary.
But similarly, Sogel's fulcrum forward kicking style makes him not suitable to be a complete explosive point, and he also plays support.
Then...San Remo's attack will undoubtedly tilt more towards the midfield.
Their main offensive player is the midfielder!
Ram's appearance in the back midfielder unexpectedly.
Everyone thought that San Remo bought a central defender, but they wanted a midfielder?
Whether this transformation can be successful is still a question mark.
As for the centre-back, San Remo's former right-back Mattias came to the right center back position.
This is not good news for him.
On the one hand, when the team changes its formation, he has to leave his comfort zone to adapt to a new position.
On the other hand, in the original 433 formation, his playing pick may also be behind Kanyes.
Therefore, he started in this game, but he was actually far from being safe as Najib who was on the bench in this game.
Najib is about 1.9 meters tall and is a big central defender, but because he is young, his speed and turn speed are not particularly slow, and he is also competent for the right central defender.
The real reason why Najib sat on the bench in this game is probably because Sotu hopes that he can learn more from Palacios.
In the three-back lineup, the central defender's goal is particularly important.
A central defender who can pass the ball is not that easy to find, because passing the ball not only means your passing ability and footwork, but also requires you to have a broad vision, an understanding of offense and defense positions, a big heart and a certain passing imagination.
Many central defenders have good footwork, but they always have many problems when they let him play. This is because they have problems with their vision, or their imagination is too rich, and they make a rash mistake.
Centre-backs who take off the ball sometimes often struggle between "creating offensive opportunities" and "making fatal defensive mistakes". One inattention may lead to concealing the ball.
It can be said that things that require them to judge are sometimes even more difficult and more critical than a forward judging how to shoot.
Having said so much, I just want to emphasize the rareness and rareness of touching centre-backs.
But the strange thing is that there are at least two such central defenders in San Remo!
When Palacios was in Serie B, he served as the team's central defender, with excellent ball-taking ability and defensive command ability. When he cooperated with Najib, he dragged him back as the commander and also had strong secondary air defense capabilities.
When Najib is not on the court, Palacios can be the one who competes for the top and grabs, and he has a strong defense ability in the front. The responsibility of commander and dragging will fall on Bernoulini.
And Bernoulini... may be one of Italy's best goal-taking center backs, and is only stronger than Palacios!
This is the key to why Sotu dared to play the three-back formation after Bernoulini arrived.
Because there is!
Beep!
Less than ten minutes into the game, the referee blew a whistle and pointed at the center circle.
The goal is valid!
Fans of the Black and White Legion cheered instantly.
Juventus scored a goal!
In this goal, Juventus center Manju Jovic demonstrated the strength of an all-around center.
He made a series of contacts near the midfield and collided with the team's midfielders to continuously hit the wall to cooperate with the team's midfielders to bring the football outside the penalty area.
Then he made a fake pass and pivoted the ball and turned into the penalty area.
In the defense of this ball, Ram and Palacios were inconsistent, and the two pressed Manjujovic at the same time.
And flowers were grown under Manju Jovic's feet, and a fried croquette was picked out from the middle of the two.
Then when Bernoulini's flying tackle arrived, he shot through Areora's ten fingers.
The whole process is understated, without rigid contact and collision.
The old woman Juventus played the style of a Serie A championship.
Old Tom held his head on the side of the court: "How could this happen? This is obviously our strongest defensive lineup! Even if you lose the ball, you should lose it from the side. How could you lose the ball from the middle!"
Suotu shook his head and said, "It's not a problem of configuration. Our thinking is not wrong. This is caused by insufficient tacit understanding."
Old Tom said: "You mean Ram and Palacios?"
Sotu said: "No! The problem with this ball lies in the midfield. Ratuidi and Ram made a mistake in cooperation. Ram has not adapted to his identity as a destructor in the backcourt. He is still unfamiliar with the position of the midfielder and he has not been completely liberated."
Even if they are both destroyers, there is still a big difference between the midfielder and the central defender.
