Chapter 40 Stalemate

Although Juventus' overall and defense are good, their lineup is not impeccable. Their two full-backs, Decheriel and Grigra, are slightly weak. Decheriel is a strong and defensive full-back. He often assists and can't come back. Originally, this type of full-back is the mainstream in today's football, but In a team that values overall defense, Juventus, his characteristic is even a weakness; while Griguera is over 33 years old, and his physical condition has fallen sharply this season. Although his experience is still there, he is really unable to do it in the fierce game. In addition, Juventus does not have a suitable substitute for the full-back position. If a full-back has an accident and can't play, Ferrara can only let Marchisio drive the duck on the shelves, make a guest appearance as a full-back, or use Chiellini to play the full-back.

After Melo came to the right side and strengthened Juventus' right defense, Ivanovic of Gosho suddenly moved his position forward. He was a midfielder with strong running ability and fast speed. His forward movement immediately made Marchisio feel a lot of pressure again. Ivanovic can play all the positions in the middle of the midfield, and now he will not be uncomfortable at all when he comes to the front waist position. His running position is very flexible, his ability to get rid of the ball is also very strong, and his ability to pass the ball is even more able to beat Jovinco. This makes Marchisio with a yellow card on his body very uncomfortable. Because he was afraid to play cards again, Marchisio's defense inevitably shrank, which suddenly made Ivanovic pass a few threatening passes.

Ferrara frowned. It seems that Lin Fenglei, the head coach of Gosho, knows Juventus very well. Every adjustment hits Juventus' weaknesses, and Gosho's formation is too flexible. This unknown Ivanovic can hit the front waist when attacking and back when defending. And they all play well. Why haven't such a comprehensive player heard of it before?

Most of the videos of Gosau watched by Ferrara were from the Champions League. In the Champions League, the main front midfielder of the Gosau team was Lima. Ivanovic did not play many times, so Ferrara did not focus on him. I didn't expect that he could perform so well now.

Ferrara stood up. He asked left forward Turan to move a little closer to the middle and help Marchisio. Turan immediately followed his instructions and approached the middle. Unexpectedly, Ivanovic's performance had just been suppressed by them. Gosho's right winger Avanzini immediately became active again. His consecutive breakthroughs made Juventus' left-back Decheri be in a hurry again.

Marchisio is depressed. He is a midfielder of Juventus. He is both offensive and defensive and majestic in Serie A this season. He didn't expect to be constrained everywhere in this game. He is simply a burden to the team. When did he suffer like this? But now that I'm carrying a yellow card, I'd better keep a low profile and get through this difficult period.

Ferrara's face is very solemn. Now Juventus' midfielder is obviously restrained and completely passive. He is simply being led by the Gosho team. Looking at Qiao Wenke, who was at a loss in the front court, he sighed. Qiao Wenke did not play his expected role at all. He seemed to disappear on the court, but now that the game has only started for more than 20 minutes, it is impossible to replace him now. Fortunately, Juventus' two central defenders and goalkeeper Buffon played well. It's all remarkable. It's not possible for the Gosho team to score for the time being, so Ferrara has no idea of making personnel adjustments for the time being. Anyway, the Italian team doesn't care about the ugly scene.

In the 25th minute, Avazzini got Antunović's backfield transfer ball and rushed in on the right side. Decheri came forward to defend Avanzini. After doing a few fake moves, Arvanzini easily shook Decherie and suddenly cut in. At this time, Turan's position was closer to the middle. Juventus' ribs are a blank area. If Avazzini is allowed to break through, it will be very dangerous. Decheri knocked down Avazzini from behind in a hurry, and his action also made the referee show him a yellow card.

In the 28th minute, Avanzini broke through with the ball from the right side again. This time, Turan was ready. He greeted Avanzini, but without waiting for him to approach, he passed the ball to Ivanovic in the middle. Ivanovic took the ball and took the position from the right side of Marchisio, who defended him. Breakthrough, but when Marchisio's center of gravity moved, Ivanovic and his left foot hit the ball from behind to his right side, and then his right foot protruded from the left side of Marchisio. Ivanovic's movements were not very fast. Several movements were not done slowly, but his fake movements were very realistic, and his movements were very coherent, so Marchisio was also deceived by him to move his center of gravity early. After realizing that he had been fooled, his left hand subconsciously grabbed Ivanovich. The jersey pulled him to the ground.

The referee blew the whistle and then ran to the place of the accident. Marchisio's heart suddenly tightened. He quickly explained to the referee that he did not intentionally foul. He hoped that the referee would show mercy and not give himself a yellow card. Melo and Turan, who were close to the place of the accident, also came up to plead for the referee. Perhaps considering the balance and excitement of the game, referee Weiner did not show a yellow card to Marchisio. He just verbally warned Marchisio to pay attention to his defensive movements, and then awarded Gosho a free kick about 35 meters away from the goal.

Lin Fenglei jumped up excitedly when the referee blew the whistle. This foul has a good chance of getting a yellow card. If the referee really sent off Marchisio, the Gosho team will have a great advantage. Ferrara stared at the court nervously, and he was probably praying to God in his heart. Don't be sent off. Where is Erkisio? When the referee made a penalty, Lin Fenglei sat back in the coach's seat with some disappointment, and Ferrara took a breath.

Ribeiro came forward to take the free kick. When the referee blew the whistle to indicate that he could take the penalty, he took a deep breath, and then ran and shot. This time the ball he shot was blocked by the bottom line by Juventus' wall. He continued to take the corner kick without any threat. The ball was directly removed by Buffon in the air.

Buffon took off the ball and threw the ball directly and launched a counterattack. Since several big men in the backcourt of the Gosho team, including Antunović, went to the penalty area to fight for the header, Qiao Wenke was temporarily liberated. After receiving a long pass from right-back Grigra, he took the ball to the top of the arc of the penalty area and made a long shot. This shot was very good. With quality, he went straight to the upper left corner of the goal, but he was very focused and held out the crossbar. This was just Juventus' first shot within the goal frame in the first half of the game.

Wright also held his breath in his heart in this game. He is a goalkeeper with mediocre physical condition, and he is silent. He rarely communicates with the coach. He doesn't know how to communicate with the coach. He only knows how to practice hard, so his progress has not been fast, and he doesn't know how. His teammates on the back defense line cooperate with him, so his performance in high-level games has always been very average, and he has lost almost a ball in the field.

In the second half of this season, he obviously felt that coach Lin Fenglei had lost trust in himself. Now the domestic games in Switzerland are all started by Chekaleri. Although Lin Fenglei said it was a normal rotation, the position of the front goalkeeper is basically not rotated. He doesn't blame Lin Fenglei. After all, he has given himself a lot of opportunities, and he can't blame others for not making progress for a long time. He is also a person with no ambition. Looking at the speed of Chekareli's progress, you can know that the team's main goalkeeper next season must be him, so let's be a reassuring substitute. After all, he hadn't thought of playing the Champions League final when challenging the group league, and he was also satisfied. However, he must exert all his strength in this Champions League final, because this may be the first and last time he has started in the Champions League final, so his attention has never been focused in this game.
