I just wanted to play football, but I became a Hollywood god

Chapter 628: Goal difference advantage in away games! The pressure is on Southampton!

The ball went in!
After a long and anxious battle of offense and defense, Gu Ran took the lead with an extremely domineering kick from the Heavenly Flying Immortal!
The score on the big screen at the Turin Stadium was immediately rewritten as Juventus 0:1 Southampton, and the total score was Juventus 2:4 Southampton!

Southampton has a two-goal advantage, and Juventus is now very passive.

Now, Juventus must give up their defense and switch to all-out offense in order to hope to equalize or even overtake the score in the next time.

Head coach Conte stood in the technical area on the sidelines, waving his arms and roaring crazily like an angry orangutan.

Southampton, on the other hand, took the opportunity to strengthen its defense.

In a game of this level, whether it looks good or not is secondary. Winning and advancing to the finals is the most important thing.

Especially in the away game, facing the once world-class giant Juventus, it is even more difficult to rely on it.

The game continues.

The confrontation between the two sides is still stalemate.

Although this is the home court of Juventus, and although Juventus has "Little Ibrahimovic" Iaquinta and the zebra prince Piero, Iaquinta's state has never been good enough, and Piero Also old, Juventus's forward threat, just like the "Old Lady" as their club is nicknamed, is faltering.

If it weren't for Pirlo, the midfielder's brain, who could pass threatening balls from time to time, Juventus' offense would be really miserable.

This is still the case with Del Piero. When Del Piero retires next season, Juventus will really enter the twilight period.

In the 37th minute of the game, Pirlo made a direct pass from the backcourt. Del Piero, who was in front of the ball, made a beautiful stop and turned around, getting rid of Van Dijk's defense and directly dribbling the ball to Del Piero on the left side of the penalty area. Area, kick the ball and hit the door.

Rudiger rushed up to block it in time and blocked it with his body.

But, unfortunately, the football hit Rudiger on the arm!
The referee knew exactly what was going on and immediately showed Rudiger a yellow card and awarded a penalty kick!
The Bianconeri fans at the scene suddenly cheered excitedly.

Del Piero's attack is really crucial!
Rudiger looked depressed.

Del Piero stood confidently on the penalty spot.

Davis stepped up to prepare for the save.

Del Piero took a run-up and fired a powerful volley!
Davis judged the path of the ball correctly, but was half a beat too slow and couldn't even touch the ball with his fingers.

Football shot into the net!

The Bianconeri fans at the scene were completely excited!
The score on the big screen at the Turin Stadium was immediately rewritten to Juventus 1:1 Southampton, and the total score was also rewritten to 3:4!

Juventus stubbornly narrowed the gap between the two rounds to 1 goal!
The suspense of the game is still there!
Before the end of the first half, Southampton missed an excellent opportunity to open the game. Gu Ran made a sudden pass on the right, broke through most of Juventus's chain defense, and sent the ball When he reached the space in the small penalty area, it was a pity that Salah, who was following in the back row, was slightly slower by half a beat, and was beaten by goalkeeper Buffon and suppressed the ball under him.

Juventus also missed an excellent opportunity to equalize before the end of the first half. After taking the ball, Iaquinta used his toe to shoot from the front of the penalty area, but Davis saved it. Iaquinta got the second. This attack opportunity, the rebounded football was even better than the first shot in terms of position and angle, but Iaquinta did not grasp it well. Facing a half-empty goal, Iaquinta was less than eight meters away. A big kick, jerk off.

The Juventus fans at the scene yelled and cursed.

As the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, Juventus and Southampton shook hands at a 1:1 draw. The players from both sides returned to their respective locker rooms for 15 minutes of rest and adjustment.

After the 15-minute break, players from both sides appeared again and the game changed sides again.

The situation in the second half was quite similar to the situation in the first half.

Although Juventus sped up the tempo and showed obvious offensive intentions, Pirlo was helplessly restricted by Gu Ran and Mikel in the midfield, making it difficult to pass a truly threatening organizational ball. This also requires Iaquinta and Del Piero to run a lot to seek opportunities.

This kind of physical exertion is what the Southampton team is most willing to see.

In the 69th minute of the game, Gu Ranmiao passed the ball to Lallana. Lallana faced the rushing Buffon and scored with a skillful shot.

However, the linesman raised his flag and when Gu Ran passed the ball to Lallana, Lallana was already in an offside position.

Southampton's goal was immediately disallowed.

Gu Ran and Lallana gathered around the referee and assistant linesman to appeal.

The big screen also played the scene of Gu Ran passing the ball. Through the slow-motion replay, it can be seen that the ball is indeed not offside. If it is offside, it can only be regarded as a hair-level offside.

The linesman's penalty has an obvious bias.

However, the referee insisted on the penalty.

Southampton appealed to no avail and had no choice but to continue playing.

Juventus can be considered as escaping, otherwise if this goal is scored, then the suspense of this game will be almost gone.

In the 85th minute of the game, Juventus got a corner kick through Del Piero's fast break.

Pirlo took a corner kick to the midpoint. The tall and powerful Iaquinta knocked away Rudiger who was defending him. Facing the flying football, he made a powerful header like a dominator, which bounced towards the goal at the touch of the ball.

Davis didn't catch the ball in the first shot!

The ball went in!
The score on the big screen was immediately rewritten as Juventus 2:1 Southampton!
After denying a Southampton goal, Juventus relied on set-piece attacks to overtake the score!

In this way, the total score between the two sides also became Juventus 4:4 Southampton!
If the two sides end the game with this score, then according to the Europa League format, if the total score of the two rounds is tied, the away goals will be compared first. If the away goals are also the same, then overtime will be played.

If it ends with this score, Juventus will have 2 away goals, while Southampton will only have 1 away goal.

This also means that if Southampton cannot score a goal before the game, then Southampton will be sent home by Juventus with an away goal difference.

The pressure was instantly placed on the Southampton team.

The Southampton team immediately gave up its balanced defense and switched to an all-out attack.

In the 88th minute, Southampton made continuous passes in the midfield, but Juventus was very experienced and their chain defense was almost watertight.

Henderson passed the ball to Gu Ran, who immediately dribbled the ball through Juventus' chain defense.

At least five players from Juventus are involved in Gu Ran.

However, the five Juventus players together could not intercept the ball at Gu Ran's feet!
