454 Counterattack is also offensive

Just ten minutes into the game, one goal ahead.

It should be said to be a very good result. Everyone wants to see how Blackburn chooses, and even Lippi is curious. George is a person who publicly declares that he is a person who pursues results. And for the sake of the championship, I don't care about the ugly coach.

But after the restart, everyone found out.

Blackburn had no intention of recycling at all, and still took the initiative to attack. And it's under the pressure of Juventus, passing, short passing, long-range shooting. Anyway, there are all kinds of playing methods that can be used.

Blackburn's playing style is indeed rich and colorful.

Sometimes it is passed one by one by one by Pire, Miku and Kaka in the middle of the road, all the way to the vicinity of the other party's penalty area. Then relying on their cooperation and their personal skills, they can completely form a shooting opportunity.

Sometimes it is a high ball directly to let Klose and Drogba control the ball.

Although Montero and Le Rotalie are also famous players in Serie A, they are not the opponents of Drogba and Klose at all in controlling the high ball. As long as Drogba and Klose control the high ball, they can create opportunities for shooting.

Of course, when attacking and defending, Kaka's counterattack speed is a sharp weapon.

Under the offensive pressure of Blackburn, Juventus' attack can't be played at all.

Even the Italian commentators are very disappointed.

"This should not be a game played by Juventus. Juventus didn't feel like a strong team at all, and the offensive rhythm was completely led by Blackburn. Up to now, there is no threat to attack.

Yes, the Italian commentator was very disappointed.

Juventus fans are even more disappointed.

What they want to see is that Juventus defeated Blackburn, the hillbilly team. Teach George, an arrogant head coach, but now he finds that Juventus is firmly pressed by Blackburn.

However, "Silver Fox" Lippi, sitting in the bench, was still expressionless. You can't see from him at all whether he is nervous or not.

After attacking for almost 20 minutes, Blackburn's attack changed a lot.

Blackburn is no longer a way of advancing from the midfield, but has taken a simpler and more direct approach. George pushed Miku directly up and kept playing high balls in the backcourt. Of course, this will make Klose and Drogba a little tired.

However, Klose and Drogba have always been single forwards, and their physical strength is very good.

Throughout the first half, the game ended in Blackburn's attack and Juventus' defense.

George was quite dissatisfied with the inaction of not being able to expand the score in the first half. If there is bis 0 in the first half, it will be much easier to play in the future. But of course, George can't show dissatisfaction. After all, Blackburn led Juventus 1-0 in the first half.

So at halftime, George appreciated the players.

And George asked Blackburn to continue his attack at the beginning of the second half.

George didn't pay attention to it at all, and Juventus would also attack in the second half. So after the start of the second half, the Juventus players were surprised to find that Blackburn seemed to be crazy. In fact, in the locker room, Lippi has asked Juventus to step up the attack in the second half.

Ask Piero to step back and organize the attack. Then Nedvede increased his run in the midfield.

Under normal circumstances, Blackburn was already in the lead in the first half and should be the first defense at the beginning of the second half. Especially now that Juventus is behind, they must want to attack in the kickoff stage in the second half.

But Blackburn attacked in the second half, which disrupted Juventus' idea.

It made Juventus' attack impossible to fight at all.

George looked at the busy Juventus and smiled in his heart. In a close game, of course, it can't be like playing a weak team. There is no problem to defeat the opponent with a weak team and with dignified strength. But playing a strong team and hitting you unexpectedly in the game will definitely have a great effect.

This kind of surprise is not the right way, because it is the right way to win head-on with a dignified master. Because you can't take this kind of sudden play in all games. Because it won't confuse the opponent, but surrounds itself.

But this technique is quite useful in the cup.

Juventus was stunned by Blackburn's playing style after the start of the second half.

Their attack can't be attacked at all.

"Does Blackburn want to completely solve Juventus at home? If the fans who just turned on the TV now must think that Blackburn is the one behind, and Juventus is in the lead.

"The game has been going on for 60 minutes. Judging from the 60-minute game, George knows a lot about Juventus. The style of play adopted in this game is also very correct. George was a little arrogant before the game, but he did have the qualification to be arrogant.

So far, Juventus have not created a truly threatening goal opportunity. On the contrary, Blackburn's side, if it hadn't been for Buffon's excellent performance, he would not have led the opponent by 1-0.

Martin. Taylor looked at the dominant Blackburn and was very proud.

After all, Juventus is an Italian giant and a European giant. If you can beat Juventus so much in the whole game, how many clubs can there be in Europe?

However, when it reached about 65 minutes, George made the first substitution.

George replaced Klose with Essien.

Is George trying to defend?

After all, it is an obvious signal to use the defensive back and change the striker. Everyone will think so.

Indeed, after Essien went on, Blackburn's formation did shrink back. Seeing Blackburn shrink back, Juventus players finally breathed a sigh of relief. From the beginning to now, Blackburn's attack has been too fierce.

Unexpectedly, Juventus players who have experienced a lot of battles feel great pressure.

Now the pressure is suddenly relieved, and the Juventus players remember that they are still lagging behind. So I suddenly remembered that I need to attack now.

This is a subconscious reaction. If you withdraw, of course I will attack. There is no need for Lippi to remind you at all, or Lippi needs to be arranged. Juventus players began to attack themselves.

Juventus' attack is not very delicate.

Including Nedvede, who has just won the European Footballer of the Year, is not a player with delicate feet. The delicate player at the foot of the front court in Juventus is Piero alone, so of course, it is impossible for their attack to cooperate delicately.

Juventus' attack, in addition to taking the side road of Camoranesi, is at the feet of Piero. Let Piero organize the attack.

Juventus, if it is a defensive counterattack, then there is a lot of threat.

But a position battle? Juventus can't play Manchester United's open and closed attacks, and they can't play the delicate attacks of Real Madrid and Arsenal. There are still a lot of problems.

Juventus have just launched an attack, and they are very fierce. Or they want to equalize the score eagerly, especially when Blackburn finally retracted back, which seems to them to be a great opportunity.

In the 72nd minute of the game, Camoranesi ran on the right side, and then there was a cross.

It was pushed out by Lucio in the middle.

The moment Alonso got the ball, it was a long pass.

Facing the high ball, Drogba directly headed the ball back to the following Kaka. When Kaka saw the ball coming, he went straight forward and triped the ball nearly ten meters away. Then there was an acceleration and ran forward.

At this time, the midfielders of Juventus basically came forward. Drogba is surrounded by Juventus defenders.

Therefore, when Kaka went to the ball, he faced Juventus' defender.

In fact, when Kaka received Drogba's header, he was still three or four meters away from these Juventus defenders. But when Kaka ran and finally got the ball, he had already shaken away the opponent's defender by three or four meters.

"Kaka, Kaka! Does this ball have technical content? No. This is completely insoluble, that is, using speed!"

Yes, Kaka doesn't have any technical content.

It's just a trip ball, and then run past the defender. Just use speed, you know you can't do anything about it.

"Lerotale and Montero, they have no choice. Kaka has completely broken through the Juventus defender, and there is only Buffon left in front of Kaka. Kaka, Buffon has already abandoned the door.

Kaka faced Buffon, but he was not afraid at all because the other party was the world's first goalkeeper.

Speed players, when single-knife, it is actually very easy to pass the goalkeeper.

As long as the ball goes aside and then accelerates, the goalkeeper basically has no way. The same is true of Kaka. Facing Buffon, he turned the ball to the right. As soon as he accelerated, Buffon was already thrown away by Kaka.

Then face the empty door, and the next action is much simpler.

"Kaka, he passed Buffon... There is a big empty door in front of Kaka!"

Kaka just pushed gently, and the ball had slowly rolled into the goal.

"Two to zero, two to zero. We are already two goals ahead. Kaka, Kaka, a perfect long-distance attack!"

"Kaka, our prince!"

Seeing Kaka's goal, the commentator shouted like crazy.

I'm really excited. Two to zero, Blackburn entered the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League with one foot.

George looked at the cheering players on the court with a smile. Blackburn suppressed Juventus for 60 minutes and had just retracted slightly. Of course, Juventus was eager to attack. This is a very normal thinking.

Unfortunately, Juventus forgot.

Blackburn retreat is definitely not just for defense. Blackburn has been fighting a defensive counterattack in the past two years. These players are deep into the bone marrow and play more beautifully than suppressing Juventus.

Defensive counterattack is not only defensive, but also followed by counterattack.

Who said that a counterattack is not an attack?

When it comes to defensive counterattacks, many people think that it is the defense of the iron barrel array, plus one or two counterattack opportunities. In fact, this is a misunderstanding of defensive counterattack. Look at the team coached by Mourinho. Although it is a defensive counterattack, there are a lot of goals.

Counterattack is actually an attack.
