This is the midfield master!

Chapter 348 The glory of the past, the glory of the past!The battle between the strongest offense and defense!

Allegri is right.

Juventus did win consecutive titles in Serie A!
Since the 2002/2003 season, they have not slowed down and never won the championship again.

Until, the 2011/2012 season won again.

Winning the championship this time started Juventus' journey to regain dominance in Serie A.

Up to the 2016/17 season, they have basically locked the championship seat this season.

It means that they are about to achieve six consecutive championships!
So Allegri's words are not nonsense.

However, this is not quite right, because Serie A is really not as strong as the Premier League!
It can only be said that the times are different.

The previous Premier League was indeed beaten by Serie A in all directions, but after the new century, the times have changed!
The glory of Serie A was in the 90s in the last world.

Serie A is known as the "Little World Cup", which is enough to prove the gold content of Serie A.

However, not to mention the new fans who have only recently fallen in love with football, it is some old fans.

It may not be clear why, the Serie A in the 20s could be called a small World Cup?
Simply put, there are three reasons:
The first reason is that the Serie A league at that time was full of stars and a hundred flowers bloomed.

The Serie A league during the Little World Cup had the famous "Seven Sisters of Serie A":
AC Milan, famous players: Van Basten, Gullit, Rijkaard, Maldini, Baresi, Weah, Shevchenko, etc.

Inter Milan - Ronaldo, Vieri, Matthaus, Klinsmann, Bremer, etc.

Juventus - Baggio, Del Piero, Inzaghi, Zidane, etc.

Fiorentina - Batistuta, Rui Costa, Edmondo, etc.

Rome one by one Totti, Aldair, Montella and so on.

Lazio - Mancini, Nedved, Nesta, Salas, Gascoigne, etc.

Parma-Crespo, Buffon, Cannavaro, Thuram, etc.

In fact, in addition to the seven Serie A sisters, there are the following Serie A powerhouses, such as: Naples, representative star: Maradona.

Sampdoria - Vialli.

Brescia - Haji and more.

Almost the best stars in the 20s, they all played in the Serie A league at that time.

So the Little World Cup really deserves its name.

The second reason is that the Serie A had the best European results at that time.

From 1989 to 1996, a total of 8 seasons of the UEFA Champions League.

Serie A teams won a total of 4 Champions League titles!
Among them: AC Milan 3, Juventus 1.

During the same period, La Liga won 1 Champions League, 1 Eredivisie, 1 Ligue 1, and [-] former Yugoslav League.

In other words, the number of Champions League titles won by Serie A is equal to the sum of the number of Champions League titles won by the other four leagues.

This situation was not ended by La Liga giants Real Madrid and Premier League giants Manchester United until 1997, 1998 and 1999.

In terms of the UEFA Cup, during the 1989 years from 1999 to 11, Serie A teams won a total of 8 UEFA Cup championships.

Among them: Inter Milan 3, Juventus 2, Parma 2, Naples 1.

You must know that before 1992, the Champions League only allowed the championship teams of each league to participate.

Therefore, in the UEFA Cup, there are a large number of strong European teams, and the gold content must be higher than the current UEFA Cup.

Serie A not only dominated the Champions League in the 20s, but also the Europa League in the 90s.

In addition, during the period from 1987 to 2000, there were a total of 14 Ballon d'Ors, and Serie A won 9 of them.

From 1991 to 2000, there were a total of 10 World Footballer of the Year, and Serie A won 7 of them.

At this stage, Serie A can be said to be a double harvest of team honor and personal honor.

The third reason is related to the heavy blow to the English league.

On May 1985, 5, the famous Heythel tragedy occurred, and the English league suffered a serious blow.

All English league teams were banned from participating in the European war for 5 years, and Liverpool was banned from participating in the European war for 7 years.

The weakening of the English league has led to a large number of stars coming to Serie A, further consolidating the foundation of the Serie A Small World Cup.

Of course.

All of the above are past events.

Since 2001, Serie A, known as the Little World Cup, has also entered a period of decline.

French star Michel Platini opened the prelude to the Serie A Mini World Cup.

Zidane, who is also a French star, gradually brought the curtain of the small World Cup to a close.

In 2001, Zidane left Serie A and he moved from Juventus to Real Madrid.

In 2002, Ronaldinho also left Serie A. He moved from Inter Milan to Real Madrid. Ronaldinho's departure made up for Serie A again.

In 2005, the Premier League giants Liverpool staged the miracle of Istanbul in the Champions League final.

This is also the source of the famous "champagne at halftime".

Liverpool was 3 goals behind AC Milan in the first half, and chased 3 goals in the second half, and in the penalty shootout, they reversed AC Milan 3-2 and won the cup.

Serie A has been hit hard again in the Champions League.

On May 2006, 5, the famous Calciopoli incident occurred, and the already declining Serie A suffered a fatal blow.

Serie A's small World Cup title was completely lost.

Until today, it was originally the Premier League and La Liga that took turns.

But Su Chen's joining.

Let the Premier League suppress La Liga for two consecutive seasons and become the top five leagues!
The Serie A during the Little World Cup can only become a good memory for fans.

But for Allegri's words.

Manchester City fans naturally disagree. Basically, the first sentence is, "Serie A is better than the Premier League. How many years ago?"

Then he said things like see you on the field.

In fact, Manchester City fans, under the strong leadership of Su Chen, have become more and more Buddhist.

Whatever you say.

You can't beat me anyway.

And Manchester City fans, like other fans, are waiting for the national team that will be officially announced after Su Chen's Champions League game is over.

This is what they look forward to more.

When Guardiola was interviewed, he was also asked about his views on this game.

Guardiola smiled, "It's just a game, that's it for us. We just need to play our tactics and try our best to win this game!"

When a reporter asked whether Su Chen had fully recovered from his injury.

Guardiola answered in the affirmative: "Yes, Su Chen told me that he is feeling great at the moment, and the team doctor also found that his injury is recovering well after examination. He will start the game."

All of this has been disseminated by the media to a disturbed world.

Many fans are waiting for this game.

This is also the game that everyone is most looking forward to in this round of the Champions League.

soon.

Time flies.

It's January 4st.

Allianz Stadium, home of Juventus, Turin, Italy.

One hour before the official start of the game.

It's already crowded here!
Countless fans came here!
Most of them are of course Juventus fans, wearing traditional black and white striped jerseys.

Cheer for "Old Lady"!
They were waving flags too!
This game is the year they once again launched an impact on the Champions League!
Die-hard Juventus fans singing their team anthem!
"Juve, storia.di.un.grande.amore: Juve, you are great love"

"The Juventus Warriors all have a black and white heart!"

"You brought us to the arena you long to conquer!"

"Where you go, there is our common story!"

"Only the run proves that you belong to this team!"

"Juve, you are great love!"

"White embraces black!"

"People get up and stand and sincerely cheer for you!"

"Wherever you take us, we are all a festive landscape!"

"A hug is not enough! You know, every new page, there will be our common story!"

"Only by running can you prove yourself!"

"People stand up and genuinely cheer for you, just for you!"

"Juven, you are my story!"

"When the whistle blows! When the game starts, you're my dream!"

……

in the singing.

Players on both sides have all warmed up!

They're standing in the tunnel, waiting to get in!
At this time, the faces of the players on both sides were serious, this is the Champions League, the cruel Champions League!
Only the winner can advance to the next round.

They must go all out!
at this time.

He Wei in China is introducing the starting lineups of both sides!
"The UEFA Champions League game at [-]:[-] a.m. Chinese time tonight will be the focus of this round! Juventus, who sit at home, have a very good record recently. They almost won the championship in advance in the league. The same is true for Manchester City ! It can be said that this game is not only a contest between the two sides, but also a contest between the Premier League and Serie A! A match between two league champions!"

"For Juventus, Allegri chose a four-two-three-one formation for the team! This is also Allegri's most commonly used lineup. In terms of personnel use, the top one is the transfer of this season. To Juve's number nine striker, Higuain!"

"Behind him are Cuadrado, Dybala, and Mandzukic. In the midfielder position, Pjanic, who also came to Juventus this season, partnered with Khedira. On the defensive line, Juventus' lineup It is more luxurious. From left to right, they are Alex Sandro, Chiellini, Bonucci and Alves!"

"Alves also came to Juventus from Barcelona this season without a visa. In the goalkeeper position, he is still the pinnacle of Juventus and the Italian national team, Buffon! This configuration can be said to be quite luxurious. And in Juventus There are Lemina, Rincon, Barzagli and other players who can use Tucci's bench."

"On Manchester City's side, Guardiola is using a brand new formation! This is the first time Manchester City has used such a formation! Three one two one three! It is equivalent to a diamond-shaped midfielder. The front three attack They are Ronaldo, Arrow, and Sterling, and behind them is Su Chen. The two behind are Kanter and Yaya Toure. The one behind is Fernandinho."

"The three central defenders are Kompany, Stones, Otamendi! Goalkeeper Caballero. This is not a regular formation of Manchester City, but the specific effect, we can wait until the game starts to see how it is. Effect If it is not good, Guardiola also has plenty of room for adjustment."

"On the Manchester City bench, there are Jesus, De Bruyne, David Silva and others. Alright! Players from both sides have begun to enter the field. Let us follow the camera lens and go to Allianz in Turin, Italy Stadium, watch this Champions League focus game!"

Players enter.

The Juventus players walked towards the stadium, cheers from all around came like a tsunami.

Allianz Stadium in Turin.

Can accommodate more than 4 fans!
In fact, this stadium also has a very historical background.

The Allianz Stadium in Turin was built on the site of Juventus' previous home stadium, the Stadio del Alpi.

After 6 years of arduous negotiations, in December 2002, the Turin City Council adopted the Juventus club's plan to transform the Alpi Stadium.This also wrote a new page in the history of Italian football: before this, a public stadium had never been bought by a private institution.

According to the agreement reached between Juventus and the City of Turin.

尤文图斯将以2400万欧元取得阿尔皮球场99年的使用权，租用协议在2003年1月31日签署。尤文图斯准备投资1.1亿欧元，对球场进行全面改建。现在的都灵安联球场，就是一座现代化的球场。

The voices of the fans can be well assembled!
When Su Chen walked out.

The sound waves coming to his face instantly brought his state to the court!
This is the power of fans!
There are fans shouting all around, and an empty game is completely different.

This is why, in the next few years, when Europe is full of infectious diseases, fans will not be allowed to enter the stadium.

Eventually the game got a little boring.

It is because the most important piece of the puzzle of the game is missing-the fans.

After the players from both sides performed pre-match ceremonies and other activities.

Standing in their respective places in the middle circle, waiting for the official start of the competition!
Guardiola and Allegri also shook hands before the game, but behind the warm smile is the heart of competition!
beep!
The referee Maciniak from Poland looked at his watch and rang the whistle to start the game immediately after the time was up!!
Juventus possession.

Bang!
Higuain passed the ball back to Dybala.

But Juventus did not take the lead in attacking.

They habitually wait for their opponent to make a move, make a mistake, and attack!
尤文图斯小组赛6场比赛中取得4胜2平的战绩，打进11个球的同时只丢了2个球!
In the 1/8 finals, the Bianconeri eliminated Porto from Portugal with a total score of 3-0.

It can be said that Juventus' defense is extremely solid!
Adhering to the Italian defensive essence.

And Manchester City's offensive efficiency is extremely high!
In the past Champions League games, he averaged three goals per game!
The offensive efficiency is the first in Europe!
This game is the contest between the strongest spear and the strongest shield!
It is also difficult for Manchester City to break through Juventus' defense. Naturally, they don't want to go forward and press a lot, worrying about the opponent's counterattack.

At the beginning of the game, both sides were tempted!
Manchester City firmly controlled the defense line in the midfield. With Su Chen in, Juventus' pass came to the back of the midfield.

There are only two options.

Either pass the ball to the wing, or pass it back.

It's hard to say that you can directly penetrate Manchester City's defense from the middle!
Totally impossible!
When Dybala faced Su Chen, he had already tried it!
He suffered.

As the core organizer of this Juventus attack, Dybala has a great effect on Juventus!
When he is in the middle, he can't open the situation.

Juve's offense is naturally out of the question.

Had to assign the football to the wing.

Juve's wingers Cuadrado and Mandzukic are both explosive players with a certain ability to break through.

So after the football came to Cuadrado's feet, he took advantage of the trend to move forward!
He was directly facing Kante's defense. After several failed attempts, Cuadrado had to pass the football back.

Juventus has not found a good way to break through Manchester City's midfield for the time being.

That's the benefit of having a top midfielder!
If there is no hardness in the midfield and no defense, then the defense will be attacked again and again.

There will always be mistakes.

But after the midfield defense is strengthened, the first line of defense can be formed!
Time passed slowly.

Both sides seemed a bit conservative on the scene.

Suddenly, after Dybala took the ball, he saw Higuain's running position!
this is a good chance!
Bang!
Then, Dybala kicked the ball hard!
