Chapter 162 The Powerful Juventus

"GOOOOOOOAAALLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!"

"What an incredible goal!" Lineker yelled in disbelief, "What the fuck, what did we see, Buffon took a shot that didn't pose much of a threat, with an unconventional move, Well, it's like a slam dunk, smashing the football into the net! Is this still the goalkeeper Buffon who is known for his stable performance in our impression?"

Lineker shook his head while talking, and finally said: "1:0! Manchester United was lucky to take the lead, and the total score became 4:1. Juventus is in trouble."

BBC's John Mortensen watched the replay of the goal and gave an interpretation and analysis from the perspective of details, saying: "Buffon made a mistake in his judgment of the football's landing point at the first time, and then he realized something was wrong, and took two steps back. It was originally intended to jump up and pick the football off, but for some reason, Buffon, who has good jumping ability, was obviously not enough to take off this time, he chose to hit the football hastily, but in the end he scored a beautiful own goal!"

……

………………

The broadcast footage gave several close-ups of the relevant personnel.

After seeing the football into the net, Yin Jun, who finished the shot, was stunned first, and then began to raise his arms in celebration. The teammates around him also reacted, and ran over excitedly, surrounding Yin Jun to celebrate the goal.

The Juventus players were stunned, while Buffon, who made a low-level mistake, stood there with his head in his hands, as if he had lost his soul.

Suddenly, Buffon rushed to the referee Maier very excitedly. He complained to the referee that Van Nistelrooy was offside just now, which interfered with his judgment.

The Swiss referee ignored Buffon's protests, which led to an outburst of Buffon's anger and eventually, the referee calmed down the Juventus goalkeeper with a yellow card.

The slow motion shows that when Yin Jun shot, Van Nistelrooy was in the same position as Montero who was defending him, and he was not offside. There is no problem.

"Buffon is complaining. He seems to think Ruud van Nistelrooy is offside, but the Dutchman is not offside!" Sky Sports commentator Lineker said.

"I am more willing to understand this as Buffon making an excuse for his low-level mistakes!" John Mortensen of the BBC pointed out the truth to the point.

........................

On the sidelines, the head coach of Juventus, Lippi, the famous Italian coach nicknamed "Silver Fox", opened his mouth wide when he saw such a conceded goal. He even rubbed his eyes, and then Saw the football in the net and confirmed it was correct.

Afterwards, the head coach, who was praised by the Italian media as a gentleman, broke out. He waved and yelled angrily, obviously very dissatisfied with his goalkeeper making such a low-level mistake.

Losing 1:3 in the away game is extremely unfavorable to Juventus, and now conceding a goal at home, it is really too difficult for Juventus to reach the final!
The biggest reaction to this conceded goal was the Juventus fans at the Alps Stadium. There was no sound in the stands, and then huge boos broke out. The Juventus fans couldn't believe their eyes.

The Juventus fans, who had applauded Buffon's yawn shortly before the goal, were surprised by Buffon's smash.

CCTV also broadcast the game. He Wei, who was in charge of the commentary, stammered and asked his partner Huang Qiangqiang, "Is this... this goal, Yin Jun's goal, or... Buffon's own goal?"

"Yin Jun's goal." Huang Qiangqiang said. To be precise, the goal should have been saved by the goalkeeper, so it can't be considered an own goal.

Of course, Huang Jianqiang hopes that this goal will be counted in Yin Jun's name, so that Yin Jun's goals will reach 11, which is only 1 goal away from Ruud van Nistelrooy, the top scorer in the Champions League.

If, after Manchester United reached the Champions League final, Yin Jun scored another goal, then it is possible to share the Champions League Golden Boot with Ruud van Nistelrooy.

It is definitely a great honor for a Chinese player to win the Champions League Golden Boot!

However, the goal information was quickly displayed on the big screen of the Alps Stadium. The official counted the goal on Buffon. This was an own goal by the Juventus goalkeeper, and Yin Jun missed one goal.

However, presumably Buffon would rather the official count the ball in Yin Jun's account, so that he can slightly reduce the self-blame in his heart.

………………

Such a conceded goal will indeed hurt the Juventus players. This kind of low-level mistake is very damaging to morale.

But Juventus, as a world-class giant, is indeed powerful.Coupled with the home game, in the subsequent games, Juventus showed a strong aggressiveness on the offensive end.

Their offensive efforts finally paid off in the 43rd minute of the game.Scholes made a direct pass in the counterattack, and the Juventus defender made a big-footed clearance directly. Del Piero stopped the ball on the left side of the penalty area. Facing Hierro's block, he swayed three times in a row. Hierro's center of gravity was deceived, and Piero With a right foot volley from 3 meters in front of the goal, the ball passed through the gap between Hierro and Salgado into the near corner, and Juventus tied the score at 11:1.

"Piero! The captain of Juventus scored a goal! Beautiful goal! 1:1! Juventus equalized the score before the end of the first half!" The commentator on Italian TV applauded the goal.

When Del Piero scored, Lippi jumped up, and he waved his fist vigorously, expressing his emotions to the fullest.Act as excited as if you won the whole game.

In the stands, the Juventus fans also cheered excitedly, cheering for the captain's goal. The score was equalized, and the Juventus fans were in a good mood.

They believe that the previous goal loss was only due to their own goalkeeper's mistake. This was just an accident, and nothing can prevent Juventus from winning today.

There is still half of the game, and Juventus' strong offensive ability will continue to poke holes in Manchester United. The fans have already begun to discuss happily. How many goals can Juventus win today?

For this goal, Ferguson did not show anger.Juventus is also a top giants team that is not inferior to Manchester United in strength. Coupled with home games, it is unavoidable for Manchester United to lose goals, and even losing is not uncommon.

It is impossible to play Juventus 3:0 in the away game like in the second stage of the group stage every time they are away at the Alps Stadium.

就算是比赛最终以1:1的比分结束，甚至是1:2的比分输掉，他和曼联也是可以接受的。因为首回合在主场3:1的比分，依然可以保证曼联闯进决赛。
