Chapter 373 The Great Victory 2

No matter what the two teams are, the game seems to have nothing to do with Don Jack.

But in fact, before the game, there were still many media reporters who came to Liverpool to interview Don Jack. They were concerned about the problem between Don and Liverpool. After Don Jack refused to answer all the topics about this, the reporters talked about the game. They wanted to hear Don Jack's opinion.

Unexpectedly, Don Jack didn't think it was a big problem: "This is a very important game. Although for some reason I can't play and Steven can't play, I don't think it's a big problem for the team. Juventus is a strong team, but Liverpool is not weak. I know the team and Mr. Benitez. Mr. Benitez will always be surprised. His tactics will be overwhelming. I believe he will lead Liverpool to victory!"

"We will definitely advance!"

Don Jack's words surprised the English media. Everyone knows that this black-haired boy has a conflict with the Spaniard, but he said such a thing. Is this a sign of change of direction?

But his words also made Capello vigilant.

The last time he played against Liverpool was Benitez's surprising foul tactic. Juventus was in a mess. This time, Liverpool wanted to win. In theory, the winning rate was too slim. Liverpool needed to keep the door for 90 minutes, otherwise it would be basically eliminated.

Expect a team without Don Jack or Gerrard to break Juventus' defense!?

Delusional!

Everyone thinks so. Capello feels that he should pay attention to the opponent's tactics. Liverpool must want to advance. Benitez must also prove something with the victory without Liverpool's No. 10 boy. Capello understands this very well. He is an iron-fisted coach and knows the purpose of doing so. He became more vigilant.

What Capello is most afraid of is Liverpool's goal!

According to reason, the most important thing Liverpool should do in the Alpes Stadium is defense. If the Reds want to eliminate Juventus, they must ensure that they do not conceded the goal. This is the simplest way. Although they don't admit it, it is true. Gerrard said that the team will not strive for zero to zero, but that is the best way to eliminate Juventus. The road.

But Don Jack's words reminded Capello...

In the last game against Liverpool, Juventus lost at the beginning. Liverpool can be described as a surprise victory. Just at the beginning of the game, Juventus, who played the ugly game, was completely uncomfortable. So in this game, will the 'disgusting' Spaniard come out again? A strange victory'!!?

Capello is a little scared!!

Maybe Cannavaro didn't score that goal on the road. Maybe it's better, because Juventus may let go. The goal, which was regarded as "life-saving" at that time, became a heavy burden hanging behind the "old woman". Capello kept emphasizing before the game: "We can't be scored by the other side first." . "

To this end, Capello changed his formation and played three defenders to defend against Liverpool's counterattack.

When the game starts, Juventus' formation is a set of 352, and the main defense is a counterattack. Capello is afraid of Liverpool's goal, and he must ensure that Juventus will score if the opponent does not score.

Capello seems to have forgotten... The latter is the key.

Obviously, in the Alpes Stadium, there is no question about the defensive ability of Juventus' 352 formation. Liverpool's attack is like tickling, and the counterattack can't be fought at all. Juventus emphasizes defense, and Liverpool have no chance at all.

But Juventus seems to have ignored a little... Even if you defend your opponent in the backcourt, if you can't score in the front court, you will still be eliminated, as Piero said before the game: "In this case, a draw is equivalent to losing."

How conservative is Juventus!?

Many people will be interested in this. Capello's 'defense first and then attack' tactics may really have something to do with Don Jack's 'reminder' in front of reporters, but Don Jack is really unintentional. He just felt that Benitez's tactics in the last game surprised him, so he made such a voice and gave the team Encouragement.

But Capello insisted on being conservative!

Throughout the first half, Juventus only had two shots, while Liverpool had only one shot, saying that this was the ugliest half of the Champions League this season. Liverpool's full-line recovery is understandable, because they have a goal difference in hand, so what about Juventus!? Even if it doesn't have the indomitable momentum of Inter Milan and Bayern yesterday, should it at least make some efforts in the front court!? But Juventus didn't. They seemed to be practicing tactics. Juventus insisted on their 'old woman' style throughout the game. Their stable formation really has no loopholes, but the formation does not advance at all. Liverpool also attaches great importance to defense, and there seems to be no pressure to defend.

Benitez can't understand it... Why doesn't Juventus attack!?

If you don't look at the costumes of the two teams in the game, people may think that Juventus is from England, the origin of the "Long-ball" style. As many as 28 long-balls in the game have returned without success. Juventus regards long-handed as their main offensive means. But for Liverpool from England with a tall defender, this is by no means a problem. It should be said that Liverpool is best at defending long passes, and it is also an English team.

As a result, Juventus' 'only' offensive means did not work. They were playing more and more 'slow'. Compared with the two Milan teams, Juventus' technical content was lower. Liverpool did not shrink the penalty area to form an iron barrel formation, but tightened the formation in the midfield and took offside in the backcourt. Reduce the space for Juventus players to take the ball in the midfield. In the pass, Juventus players show a slightly rough footwork and lack of control. Once the opponent is pressed, they can only take a long pass. Sometimes, taking a long pass is actually a "forced defense" rather than an attack.

In contrast, Liverpool has some small-scale wonderful cooperation, not only in fighting spirit, but also in technology, Juventus has also fallen behind.

This is probably the most boring Champions League match!!!

Don Jack is drowsy watching at home. If he hadn't wanted to know the motivation to support him to watch the final result, he would have turned off the TV and gone shopping outside. This is not a wonderful Champions League game. On the contrary, it's like two teams are constantly playing tacitly playing the ball to time. Liverpool is not in a hurry. It's just one away game away. Juventus, who scored, is also not in a hurry... Don Jack felt that his words would come true: Liverpool easily eliminated Juventus to advance.

This is really a surprising result!

Similarly, this represents the success of Benitez. Although I don't quite understand why the Spaniards are so stubborn and insist on not letting themselves play, Don Jack can also think of something. For this result, he is really mixed. He is happy that his team has advanced to the semi-finals of the Champions League. What is worried about Benitez against His 'certain purposes' seem to have succeeded!?

At the end of the game, the fans watching the live broadcast all over Europe finally became energetic. Some of them were lost, excited, happy, sad, and of course, there were 90% of them.

"It's boring!" Most fans think of the game.

It's really boring. After 90 minutes of competition, the two teams got zero to zero. Liverpool eliminated Juventus and entered the quarterfinals of the Champions League with a goal difference at Anfield!
