Chapter 119: "Drawn into the water" by the old sailor

Relying on a penalty kick from Lopez in the first half, Sampdoria equalized the score. The old sailors were very arrogant at Juventus' home court.

In the remaining 10 minutes, Juventus launched a fierce attack.However, Sampdoria did a good job defending, and Juventus has never had a chance.

The final one-to-one score lasted until the end of the first half, and neither side could change the score.

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again. Amid the singing of Juventus fans, the whole Juventus team launched a fierce press in the frontcourt.Vidal moved forward, and once someone tried to organize a wave of offense, he immediately rushed to the ground to tackle the ball, not caring about getting a yellow card at all.

Even Marchisio, who usually likes to attack, also participated in the national defense, which made the Sampdoria sailors very uncomfortable, because once they got the ball, they would find Juventus players from all directions rushing to grab the ball .

The scene in the second half turned into a one-off situation. Of course, there was also a strange phenomenon.Li Zihan began to appear to be incompatible with his teammates on the field, because when all players, including striker Vucinic, participated in the tactics of total defense and total attack, he seemed redundant.

Because his rough defense and ineffective on-the-spot counter-robbery did not work at all, and he has not yet formed a tacit joint defense with his teammates.

The assistant coach frowned and said to Conte: "Lee still doesn't adapt to this tactic, he is a very good offensive player. His characteristics can play forward, winger, and attacking midfielder, but"

"I know, this kid's technical characteristics are too single. I still don't know much about modern European football, as if he has no defensive talent at all." Conte said.

After a little hesitation, Conte said: "It's almost time, call Sebastian to warm up. Lee was a bit wasted on the field, turning our 11 into ten. Let's strengthen his training in the future, anyway, he has stamina. Not good, let’s train his endurance by the way.”

Carrera smiled sinisterly, his intuition told him that there would be something to play in the future training.

Five minutes later, Li Zihan, who was sweating and at a loss, was replaced by Qiao Wenke.

"Lee was replaced. He performed very well in the first half and scored an assist. But when the team started the full-court press in the second half, he didn't improve at all. It seems that Lee has the way to go. There is still a long, long way to go, although he scored a lot of goals and assists, but a player who cannot adapt to the coach's tactics is not a good player."

Fortunately, Li Zihan didn't hear this sentence, otherwise he must have been furious and said: A coach who can't arrange tactics according to the characteristics of the players is not an excellent coach.

Of course, considering that the head coach is a very kind and friendly "weird" to him, for the sake of harmony, he would not say anything even if he heard it. As for his "weird" face or not to be "wearing small shoes", I don't know up.
In fact, Conte also believes that a head coach who cannot formulate tactics according to the characteristics of his players is not a top head coach.Just like a gambler, if you win a hand of top cards, that's not your skill.Give you a bad deck of cards and you can win, that's what you can do.

Undoubtedly, Conte belongs to the latter, as can be seen from the comparison of his performance before accepting Juventus to the past year and a half of coaching.Moreover, Bonucci, Vidal and others in the entire main lineup were discovered and brought by him. The key is that he did not spend much money.

So why, as a relatively good head coach, failed to arrange tactics for Li Zihan according to his characteristics?Still a reason. Young!

Li Zihan is too young, he is talented.Youth often means instability. If a young player has performed particularly well for a period of time, the head coach who pushes to rearrange his own tactics is either courageous or mentally problematic.

Therefore, Conte does not want to take risks. He believes that Li Zihan will become an excellent striker, but now...he still needs to learn and quietly improve his ability, rather than serving as the core or main force in a wealthy team.

Everyone knows what Juventus has been like in the past few years, and it can be described as miserable.The far-reaching impact of the Calciopoli incident has not yet been eliminated. Juventus is standing on the edge of a cliff. Although it overlooks the beautiful scenery, it will be smashed to pieces if it accidentally falls.

When Juventus fans and club executives were shouting revival slogans, a miraculous player suddenly appeared.Then everyone will put their hopes on him. If this young player's state fluctuates, then he is dead.

Such things have happened frequently in football fields over the past few decades. Whether Li Zihan will become the next "destroyed" genius who disappears from everyone, Conte doesn't know.All he can do is try not to let Li Zihan develop in that direction, so now no matter how good Li Zihan's statistics are, he is just a rotation player.

Conte has his own plans, he didn't tell others because he didn't think the time was right.However, as everyone knows, many times the plan cannot keep up with the changes.

Li Zihan didn't know Conte's plan. He was very upset now, but it wasn't that he was unhappy about being replaced.Instead, he was unhappy with his performance on the court, he felt that he was inferior!
No one can understand better than himself the feeling of being a spectator when everyone except the goalkeeper defends and attacks.

I thought I was very strong, but I didn't expect that I was so small
Li Zihan sat on the bench, took the towel handed over by the staff and applied it directly to his face, leaning his neck in a helpless expression.

Little did he know that this scene of his was caught by an unscrupulous reporter.

The last nine and 10 minutes of the game were over, and Juventus replaced Pogba and Caceres successively.

The final score was one to two, and Juventus lost the first game at home in the new year.

The tenacious old sailor beat Juventus in the last 3 minutes of stoppage time, and Maresca cut in from the sideline.Pass the ball with a feint, but knock the ball directly to the goal.

Buffon's save was one step too late and the ball slipped into the net!

At that moment, all the Juventus supporters lost their voices collectively.

On the contrary, the old sailor fans who came from afar
"We fight together,
Always me and you.
At that time, the first time since the team.
for this team,

as my parents,

The world of fans and football is always boundless..
Hey you, plans you're throwing away,
and me, who tried to leave football,

and you, who sing little by little
You're not wrapped in colors you never knew
The South is a hero,
You can change the world just by singing us.
Ultimate Doria, Sampdoria,
Every game will be a carnival..
Ultimate Doria, Sampdoria,
city ​​at every corner
it takes time,
But we're still going on,
Shout our hero's name.
But look at this,

How many jerseys are there in this small city

bluecerchiate who continues the great magic
Oh no, the dream in which you're about to give up,
My boy, besides dribbling football,
The songs you sing now are always worthy of us,
Know the color the South is a hero,

You can change the world just by singing us.
Ultimate Doria, Sampdoria,
Every game will be a carnival..
Ultimate Doria, Sampdoria,
city ​​at every corner
Every game will be a carnival.
Doria, Sampdoria,

city ​​at every corner
Doria, Sampdoria,

Every game will be a party.
Ultimate Doria, Sampdoria,
Every corner of the city”

The supporters of the "Old Sailor" sang all the way down the stands, watching the Juventus fans staring at them.Seeing that arrogance, I really wanted to go up and beat them up, anyway, fans in northern and southern Italy did a lot of fights.

But considering that not long ago, a group of cheating fans "helped" Juventus was fined by UEFA and the players were suspended and are being watched by UEFA
They "offended" UEFA just now. When they thought about it, they couldn't also offend the Italian Football Association, right?So I had to hold back the heads of the fan groups who came forward to restrain the people in their groups.

This made the Sampdoria fans even happier.

Damn, there's nothing more satisfying than beating Juventus. There's nothing more comfortable than winning the ball at the opponent's home court and the opponent still scolding.
It is conceivable that throughout the week, Sampdoria fans are in a good mood.

"Damn it, the tiger was bullied by the dogs when the sun was setting. Look at the way those dogs are showing off their power. If you don't know, you think they won the league championship that they haven't touched for many years." One Juventus fans complained.

As can be seen from his half-baked Chinese idioms, he is a fan of Li Zihan.
After the game, Conte could not avoid being "interrogated" by the media.

When asked about Li Zihan's poor performance in the back, Conte said unceremoniously: "What is poor performance? What is not active? In my opinion, Li's performance is very good, and he is also very active on the field. For For a tactic that he is not used to and is not familiar with, he can work hard to complete his tasks on the court. This is hard work, and there is one assist in the whole game. Does this mean that he performed well?"

"What? Cavani opened the distance on the league scorer list, and was caught up by Di Natale and Shalawi? It doesn't matter, Li is still young, and now he has more time left. I believe he can dominate in the future." Keep the top scorer list, besides, this season is not over yet, there are still [-] rounds, who laughed and said that the end is not certain."

"Al Shalawi is also a young player? So what? He has been in Serie A for more than two seasons and is completely familiar with the rhythm of Serie A, while Li has only been here for half a year. What's more, as an Italian, Shalawi is playing against Italian football. In terms of understanding, it is easier for Li from China to come."

"As I said, Lee is still young. We are not in a hurry, nor is he. He has a lot of time to perfect himself, and we also have a lot of good strikers to score goals for us. Our lineup is very strong, and there is no rotation. In other words, everyone is the main force!"

In the end, Conte gave full play to his own characteristics and uttered nonsense, causing many reporters to temporarily forget what questions they wanted to ask.

At the press conference, I followed Conte’s rhythm completely, and I only remembered it when I walked out of the hall at the end. It seems that I haven’t asked my question yet.
