Chapter 242: Old Dang Yizhuang Piero (One Hundred and Two/One Hundred and Seventy-Two) Part 2
The two hundred and fortieth chapters are old and strong Piero
The second half of the game was lively.
Gao Bo's expected flank suppression was ineffective, which instead made the pace of the game quicker.
"Do you need to let Adam and the others come back to defend?" John saw that the team was threatened by the opponent's cross several times, and he was a little worried at this time.
However, Gao Bo's point of view is different from that of John. He is looking at the offensive end.
The English media likes to regard Gao Bo as a utilitarian coach and think Gao Bo is a defensive-oriented coach.
But Gao Bo felt very wronged, and he believed that he still attached great importance to offense.
There is a saying in football circles that offense wins fans and defense wins championships.
Gao Bo has never agreed with this sentence much. In his opinion, only scoring goals can win the championship.
Can score goals and concede less.
This is what wins the championship!
What Gao Bo sees is that Luton's side attack is actually very threatening, and, in such a rhythm of frequent reentry, Juventus' overall age weakness may be exposed in the second half of the game!
With such frequent sprints as Grosso, how long can his physical fitness last?
It's not easy for a veteran in his thirties. Gao Bo has no intention to change the rhythm of the game. Even if Luton can't score a goal, if he can turn the game into a return run where players from both sides compete for physical fitness, then in the last fifteen minutes of the game, Luton can definitely dominate the scene!
Juventus can't run for long!
Juventus is also very clear that their physical fitness is not as good as that of the young Luton, so they need to score goals as soon as possible, and try to overtake the score as much as possible!
Ferrara also knew that Grosso would not be able to rush for long, but he was also prepared.
Once Grosso can't keep up, he's ready to make a substitution.
At this time, Molinaro was also warming up. From the second half, Ferrara made the Italian full-back ready to warm up at any time to replace Grosso, who may be out of shape.
Ferrara is betting,
Bet on his team to score first!
This is because Ferrara still has great trust in Juventus' forwards. Del Piero's personal ability is very strong, and Amauri is also an experienced high center. Brazilian midfielder Diego can also be at the top of the penalty area. Do some articles.
These three players with strong offensive ability can always create surprises at certain moments!
This is Ferrara's strength.
In the 67th minute of the game, Diego hit Jeffrey with a long shot from the perimeter, and was then cleared by Sol Campbell.
Juventus' flanks are still very empty, and Griezmann dribbles the ball forward after taking it down easily.
Adam simply came from the left to the right, actively seeking cooperation with Griezmann, but Juventus' defense was very close, Adam ran from the left, and then slanted to the right.
After running a cross with Griezmann, it finally messed up Juventus' defensive belt a bit.
Griezmann took the opportunity to dribble inside!
Melo was passed by Griezmann, and then Chiellini made up!
Vardy pulled away to the left, leaving a gap in the middle.
Griezmann didn't hesitate, he shot with his left foot!
The football drilled through this gap!
At this moment, Cannavaro blocked, and the football bounced to the left after hitting him.
At this time Vardy rushed over, and he rushed to the football with him, and Buffon was attentive! !
"Valdi!!!"
Letkinson exclaimed!
The Juventus fans in the stands were also shocked into a cold sweat!
Vardy is racing against Buffon! Had he got the ball first, Juventus' goal would have been empty!
Vardy gritted his teeth and increased the speed to the fastest!
However, the ball that popped out was still moving forward under the action of rotation, so in the end, Buffon came out first and hugged the ball directly! !
And Vardy could only jump up and jumped over Buffon's head. After all, his speed was still a little slower, and the ball was taken by Buffon first!
Juventus fans breathed a sigh of relief and then cheered for Buffon's performance!
"Buffon's key save in the penalty area!! Vardy almost got the ball!"
"It's really thrilling, Juventus' defense needs to be more careful!! Griezmann is too easy to cut recently!!!"
The Italian commentator was terrified.
The TV screen was still replaying the attack from Luton just now, and then the deafening cheers were heard.
The screen immediately switched back to the scene, and it turned out that Juventus' counterattack was also here! !
Grosso is dashing at high speed!
Grosso, who had run for more than 20 minutes, still had some physical fitness, but he didn't hold back, because his substitute was ready to play on the sidelines!
Although it is more than 30 years old, Grosso's speed is still very fast, and he quickly brought the ball to the frontcourt!
With Kevin Keane and Mitchell Piran standing in front of him, Luton's defense was fast, and the midfielder didn't actually rush forward, so Luton's defense system is still very complete now.
Grosso first made a fake cross, and when Mitchell Piran just stretched out his foot to block, Grosso pushed the ball past his feet, and Piero had already pulled over to receive the ball. .
"Piero catches the ball in the penalty area!!"
The Italian commentator was excited, and the fans in the stands cheered for this scene!
Piero had flowers under his feet, and his continuous fake movements and upper body shaking made him quickly turn the ball around.
The commentators rarely mentioned Del Piero's name during this time, but as long as the player is on the court, his presence can never be ignored!
After completing the turn, Piero dribbled the ball into the penalty area.
His dribbling level is very high. In the face of Sol Campbell's defense, Del Piero first went to the inside line, and then after Sol Campbell moved his center of gravity, the Zebra Prince pulled the ball back!
The thirty-six-year-old Zebra Prince has recovered a lot of physical fitness after a period of rest.
But he also knew that his chance was probably only this time.
Continuous dribbling is actually very energy-intensive!
When Piero pulled the ball back, he already felt that his feet seemed a little out of order.
Compared with the younger ones, the muscle strength of his legs has dropped a lot. Such an emergency stop connection change of direction can be easily completed when he was young, but now Piero needs to complete such an action. Use all your strength.
But he finally did it!
The staggering Piero caught up with the football! !
"Piero!!!!!!"
In the Italian commentator's long voice, Piero pushed with his right foot, and the football flew towards the goal with a strong spin against the turf!
Schmeichel fell to the ground and made a save, the football passed around his fingertips, and then, under the action of rotation, the football turned a corner on the ground and hit the post from the rear...
The football bounced off the post and into the goal!
"Alessandro......Del Piero!!!!!!!!!"
The commentator on the commentary stand roared in a long voice.
Juventus fans in the stands were boiling, they jumped up from their seats! !
After the goal, the veteran Piero pulled his jersey and roared towards the corner flag area! ! The Juventus players also rushed out. Before the game started, they never thought that this game would be so difficult!
The Zebra Prince is running wild in this stadium!
After that, Piero was quickly pushed to the ground by other Juventus players, and Juventus' celebration was very crazy!
Buffon also clenched his fists on the goal line and waved to the sky! With his mouth open and roaring, Buffon's neck burst out! It shows the excitement in this veteran's heart!
Ferrara on the sidelines and his assistants are in a mess! !
"Piero!! Piero helped Juventus to tie the game!! Prince Zebra's amazing performance in the penalty area, scored a goal, and now the score has become one-to-one!" Letkinson said a little said regretfully.
With veteran Del Piero's personal performance in the penalty area, Juventus equalized the score! The score on the field... 1 to 1! ! ( )
