Chapter 403 The Challenger of the Overlord

Sampdoria, who was leading two goals, played more easily, and this was their home court, so she played like a fish in water.

And Juventus was in a state of anxiety.

At this time, they didn't care whether the gap on the defense line would be used again by Gao Zheng. Anyway, they would press forward if they had the opportunity, hoping to equalize the score as soon as possible.

The balance has been completely broken.

If someone just turned on the TV, didn't watch the scores, but only looked at the scene, he would definitely think that Juventus had the advantage and took the lead in the minute.

But the actual situation is completely opposite to what he saw.

Sampdoria was united as one, and even if he was suppressed by Juventus, he was not panicked and performed very calmly.

The forward line composed of Jovenco and Qualiarera returned in vain again and again.

Conte then used the remaining two substitutions to attack, Tevez replaced Jovenco, and Lorent replaced Peruso.

Juventus changed to 343, constantly attacking Sampdoria's defense.

Their bombardment has really had some effect.

In the 89th minute of the game, Juventus finally broke Sampdoria's goal and scored a goal, rewriting the score to 1:2, but there were two goals left before eliminating Sampdoria.

They have to score another goal for the rest of the time and drag the game into overtime to have a chance to reverse.

But this time Sampdoria did not give them any more chances.

Four minutes after injury time, the referee blew the whistle to the end of the game.

"The game ends! Sampdoria beat Juventus 2-1 at home! They reached the semi-finals of the Italian Cup!"

Caresa's voice was drowned out by the huge cheers of the Malasi Stadium.

It was an absolutely amazing achievement for Sampdoria's team to reach the semi-finals of the Italian Cup.

The three-line battles, and the current results of the three fronts are pretty good!

The Champions League reached the quarterfinals, ranked seventh in the league, far away from the relegation zone, and the Italian Cup also reached the semi-finals...

The team's performance made Sampdoria's fans ecstatic.

Sampdoria players flocked to the stadium to celebrate the victory, while Juventus players seemed disappointed and painful.

They never expected to be eliminated away before the game.

Although they are not so arrogant that they think the Italian Cup is their possession, they don’t think they will be eliminated by Sampdoria in the quarterfinals…

When they watched the Sampdoria players celebrate by their side, their eyes showed confusion.

They forgot that this team performed better than them in the Champions League.

At least they have entered the knockout round, and they can only participate in the Europa League in the second half of the season...

Of course, if you have to say that Juventus still has hope of competing for the UEFA Champions League, and Sampdoria will not be able to win the UEFA Champions League championship anyway, there is nothing to say...

But now at least Juventus has lost hope of winning the triple crown.

"Juventus is of course the overlord of Italian football, but I am also very happy to see that in Italy, there are still teams that can shake the overlord position! If the strong in a league is always strong, and other teams can only bow down and admit defeat against the boss, that would be too boring... and more importantly, this will make a league lose its competitiveness. I don't think it's a good thing to let Juventus dominate Serie A for a row... Look at Juventus' performance in the Champions League this season. Such a team has become the strongest in the Serie A league, which only means that our league is declining..."

Carresa's words will definitely arouse dissatisfaction among Juventus fans after the game. The team was eliminated to make them sad, but Carresa still spread salt on their wounds... But Carresa doesn't care. He is telling the truth, but he thinks that the situation in Serie A is not good for Juventus to dominate the side.

He would love to see Sampdoria's rise.

But unfortunately, Sampdoria's sudden emergence is difficult to maintain. With the departure of Gao Zheng and some other young players, the team will be defeated back to its original form.

This is almost certain to happen.

Gao Zheng couldn't stay in Sampdoria all the time. As the well-deserved backbone of this team, it is hard to say where the team will go after he leaves. For example, Obonna, Costic, Berardi, Alberto Masi... What will Sampdoria keep these talented young people?

It is precisely because he believes in this that Caresa cherishes the Sampdoria in front of him.

They challenged traditional giants in Italy, and in European football, they were the only team that could defend the dignity of Italian football.

This team is so rare that they don't know where to place their hopes after they disappear.

Now I really take a look at it less, so cherish it as much as possible.

※※※

Sampdoria's elimination of Juventus was a little unpopular one. The Italian media reported on the next day.

Most of the reports are based on Juventus' side and criticized Juventus' performance this season.

In addition to his stable performance in the league, Juventus has failed this season, both in the Champions League and the Italian Cup.

Such a performance is really unreasonable as a top giant like Juventus.

So the media is filled with various criticisms and sarcasm towards Juventus.

There is not much attention to Sampdoria.

On the one hand, it is because some media have a grudge against Sampdoria and Gao Zheng. On the other hand, compared with Juventus, Sampdoria's topic is still not strong enough.

But Totti's focus was curled up on Sampdoria's side.

In the locker room in Rome, when other teammates were surprised or gloating about Juventus' failure, Totti thought of his conversation with Gao Zheng after losing to Sampdoria in the last round of the Italian Cup.

Because we want to win a championship.

Yes, relatively speaking, this is the best one to get.

Maybe I will really see how this kid has turned the "crazy words" he has said into reality step by step.

After Sampdoria eliminated Juventus in the Italian Cup quarterfinals, they will face the winners of Napoli and Lazio in the semi-finals based on the previous draw.

The first leg of the semi-final will be held on February 5th, and the second leg will be held on February 12th.

Sampdoria's first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals at home was on the night of February 19.

There were seven days left in the middle, so it did not have any impact.

After playing against Juventus in the Italian Cup, Sampdoria took a rotation in the next league against Bologna, rotating most of the main players.

In the end, Sampdoria and Bologna played a draw, but did not lose, and the result was pretty good.

Three days later, Sampdoria's opponent in the Italian Cup semi-finals was released.
