Chapter 241 The Sidewalk Explosion

When players from both sides appeared on the field again, the atmosphere in the stands of the Olympic Stadium in Turin became lively again!

"The second half of the game is about to start! Juventus, who are one goal behind, need to cheer up!!"

In the commentary seats of the stands, the Italian commentators were shouting for Juventus.

"There are 45 minutes left in the second half! It's just one goal behind, Juventus can even the score and even overtake it!!"

"In such a two-round match, it is best for Juventus to win as much as possible at home and get enough goal difference, so that in the second round of the away game, Juventus will be more relaxed."

While the commentators were talking, the referee also blew the whistle to start the second half.

Neither side made substitutions in the second half, and Juventus quickly passed the ball to the front of Luton's penalty area!

Grosso is coming!

This is a signal!
Gao Bo frowned and stood on the sidelines. The distance between Juventus' three midfielders and the back line was very close. There was no space between them in the first half. Luton's offensive players had to pass between the three Juventus midfielders if they wanted to pass Cannavaro's defense zone.

But at this time, Juventus' offense started from the side!
In the 407th minute of the game, Grosso played from the side. In the past two seasons, as Grosso grew older, he stayed in the backcourt most of the time. This is also a change that had to be made due to age. However, Grosso's side assist ability is very strong. His footwork is outstanding, and the placement of the cross is very accurate!
Just like this time!
Diego got the ball on the left of midfield before he tucked it in for a running Grosso.

Facing Grosso was Luton right-back Mitchell Piran, who followed closely behind Grosso.

In this game, Mitchell has not yet encountered the test of the opponent's wing. Piero often pulls the side, but every time Piero comes out, Luton's midfielders or central defenders will follow, so that the Zebra Prince is always surrounded by many people.

Gao Bo's defense against Del Piero has been emphasized a lot.

But Grosso is different. He is not Luton's key defensive player. After all, the Italian defender hasn't played his offensive ability for a long time.

Grosso took the ball and slowed down a little. He looked at the situation in the penalty area, then suddenly accelerated down the bottom, and then passed the ball with his left foot!
The football jumped high and flew into the penalty area!
Del Piero in the previous point is just a cover, Grosso's real goal is Amauli in the penalty area!

Amauri is tall and has good header skills.

Jeffrey still struggled to face such a big center. After all, he is only 19 years old this year. Facing the experienced Amaury, he once again fell into a disadvantage!

But Jeffrey also followed suit, finally interfering with Amaury's performance.

Amaury's header went wide!
"Beautiful cross from Grosso! It's been a long time since Grosso attacked from such a deep position, and now Juventus attack from the side! That's right, Luton's central defense is very active, Del Piero is caught in the defensive jungle, and it is not easy to break through the center to open the gap!"

The Italian commentator stood up in the commentary booth.

"That's it! Give Grosso a few chances to cross, and Amaury will always score a goal! Luton's brat Jeffrey is no match for Amaury!!!"

Gao Bo also noticed that Amauli really had a great advantage against Jeffrey. Whether it was running or physical confrontation, Jeffrey was at a disadvantage in all respects!
In this case, Gao Bo can only let the left back Sandro shrink into the penalty area and let him help Jeffrey defend Amaury.

But in this way, Juventus got space again on the right.

Cáceres came in from the right and both Juventus full-backs passed half-time, more like two wingers at this point.

In the minute of the game, Caceres broke through from the side all the way. Drinkwater defended very hard on this side. He followed all the way to the bottom line, but Caceres still completed a cross!
This time it was Amaury who hit the ball at the front point, and he ferried the ball to the middle!

Del Piero went forward and prepared to hit the volley directly.

But Sol Campbell risked an own goal, stretched his long legs, and blocked the ball out of the baseline!
Juventus continued to use crosses to create an offensive!
Gao Bo understood that Juventus are not playing in the middle, but playing on both sides, and their numbers are not too many. However, Amauli, the high center forward, is really easy to use. Several headers almost made Luton's defense fall!

Juventus's offensive twice was very fierce. What countermeasures can Luton come up with?

Gao Bo thought for a while on the sidelines, and immediately asked the team to make adjustments!
He also asked Adam and Griezmann to pull the side. Since Juventus's wing attack is fierce, Luton also creates some pressure on Juventus on the wing, so that their full-backs cannot easily press up!
Juventus is now playing in a 4312 formation. This formation originally had no wingers, and the wing attack was all based on the insertion of two full backs. In this way, Juventus's wing attack is actually quite weak.

In the 3 minutes of the game, after Kanter and Kevin Keane jointly intercepted Diego's ball, Luton also launched a counterattack from the wing!

Grosso was already pressing, but when Kevin Keane passed the ball to Griezmann, Grosso had to come back from the front!
Griezmann pushed along the flanks, and it was not so easy for Griezmann to form a connection with Vardy or Adam now compared to the first half.

Although he retreated quickly on the wing with the ball, none of the three Juventus midfielders went up, so Marchisio quickly made up for it, and then the other two midfielders were also stuck in key positions, blocking the connection between Luton's three forwards.

Griezmann can't find a point to pass the ball for the time being, and Grosso is about to come back at this time. When the two opposing players attack, Griezmann is not sure that he can protect the ball.

At this time, Luton's three midfielders did not actually press up. Gao Bo was still very cautious in this game.

Kevin Keane and Drinkwater are very restrained in offense. They need to be in front of the defense to protect their central defenders. They serve as the first barrier of defense.

Griezmann made a decision quickly, he just came by himself!
Marchisio was a little dizzy in the face of Griezmann's flexible feet, and then he was passed by Griezmann!

However, Juventus's defense is an Italian-style defense. With enough personnel, it does not make much sense to pass one of their players alone.

Melo filled the vacant space, and Marchisio did not chase back, but immediately filled the original Melo's position.

Such a defense is full of elasticity and flexibility.

Griezmann wasn't surprised either. He didn't expect to have any immediate effect after passing Marchisio. He was so narrow that he continued to break through to the outside. In terms of pure speed competition, Melo didn't keep up with Griezmann's rhythm. However, after Griezmann's breakthrough this time, football is almost beyond the bottom line!

He swept the ball into the box with his right foot before losing his balance.

In the case of protection, Cannavaro's experience is reflected. He got stuck in Griezmann's passing line early, broke the ball, and then passed the ball directly to the left!
Grosso dribbled the ball forward to launch a counterattack, but at this time Luton's defense was still intact. Grosso dribbled the ball past the midfield, and then cooperated with Diego and made a cross from the left side of the penalty area!

The sharp and fast arc flew into Luton's penalty area.

Amaury's header near the penalty spot failed to exert power, and Schmeichel won the Football Cup!
Gao Bo wants to attack from the side to suppress the opponent, but Juventus is not a soft persimmon.

Instead, the two sides launched a mode of mutual explosion on the side.

Here Amaury's header was scored by Schmeichel, and then Luton quickly launched a counterattack from the left.

Adam also got a lot of space on the wing, and Juventus' defense was also concentrated on the wing!

Adam took the ball to the frontcourt this time and chose to cut in and shoot, but under the interference of Sissoko, the ball was too high.

Looking back, Caceres also made a cross and after being cleared, Brazilian midfielder Diego also made a long shot from the outside!
Both teams are making a big fuss on the wing!

The side defenses of both sides looked a little weak, and the key defensive forces were concentrated in the middle.

You come and go, but the two sides fought quite lively on the wing.

　The monthly pass is over [-], and one more chapter is owed.

　　Watching the match between Arsenal and Manchester City, Guardiola's system is indeed quite mature, and Amelie still has a long way to go to complete the transformation of Arsenal.
