Chapter 743 Juve's Disadvantage

In the last round at the Allianz Stadium, Gu Lin, who was studying abroad, also went to the Allianz Stadium to watch the game. This time in Turin, Gu Lin still ran over, but this time he did not tell Zhang Yuan in advance, but with a few Chinese students Come and watch the game together.

When they arrived at the Juventus Arena, the Juventus Arena was already full of spectators and the game was about to start.

"The stadium of Juventus is really beautiful!" Hearing this, I knew it must be the first time I came to the Juventus Arena.

"Needless to say, many stadiums in Europe are professional. The Juventus stadium has a very good sense. You will know after listening to the cheers from the audience!" Gu Lin said.

At this moment, Zhang Yuan and his teammates are making final preparations in the locker room. Zhang Yuan has already put on his jersey and is sitting under the closet bouncing the ball.

"Come on, buddy!" Pogba shouted, Zhang Yuan bounced the ball to him, and Pogba stood up while bouncing, and started playing tricks.

Buffon clapped his hands and said: "Okay, brothers! We are about to play! Pay attention to maintain concentration and focus! Victory belongs to us!"

"Forza!" Everyone clapped their hands and howled like wolves.

Bayern players appeared in the player tunnel earlier today. Maybe they were in a hurry. Zhang Yuan saw Neuer in the player tunnel. Boateng was still a substitute today, but when he passed by Zhang Yuan, he fought with Zhang Yuan. After a greeting, the two exchanged greetings.

Boateng is actually quite depressed. He has played more games in the league, but in the knockout stage of the Champions League, Heynckes has become more and more convinced of the veteran's experience. Van Buyten always ranks ahead of Boateng. Boateng sat on the bench in the last round, and is on the bench again today.

Boateng really wants to play against Zhang Yuan again!
Heynckes played almost the same lineup as the previous game, except that Kroos was reimbursed for the season, Muller replaced him as a midfielder, and Robben played as a right winger, and Gustavo in the middle was suspended. Javi Martinez replaced.

Harvey Martinez is not very old, only two years older than Zhang Yuan, but last summer to Bayern Munich cost Bayern a record transfer fee, of course the highest transfer fee record in the Bundesliga, a full 4000 million euros.

Bayern has always been known for their shrewdness. A player who is willing to let Bayern spend 4000 million euros is definitely quite capable. Harvey Martinez has such abilities.

Skilled, conscious, strong sense of position, excellent in confrontation, etc. Gustavo has a speed advantage compared to Harvey Martinez, but he is inferior to Martinez in terms of confrontation and interception. The most important thing is Martinez. Ness' tactical discipline is relatively strong, which is much better than that of Gustavo.

It can be said that Gustavo played badly in the last game, but he occasionally lost his mind while kicking, forgot the tactical discipline, and advanced frequently, which caused Bayern to have problems in defense.

However, Martinez also has shortcomings. He is relatively tall and slow. If he makes a slight mistake in his position, facing a forward of Zhang Yuan's level, it will be fatal.

Juventus has made several adjustments here. The goalkeeper position is still checked by captain Buffon. The three-person team at the back line remains unchanged, but the changes are in the midfield. Pogba replaced Vidal in the midfield. Isla replaced Lichtsteiner and Asamoah replaced Peruso.

Compared with the previous game, the two wing backs have improved in attack ability. This is what Conte means. Although he has the advantage of away goals at home, he still doesn't want to be too conservative.

Matri was regrettably removed from the striker line. After all, Conte was disappointed in the last game. He simply played two technical forwards in this game. One is Zhang Yuan and the other is Vucinic. It cannot be summed up in terms of technology, he can also go to the penalty area to compete for the top and grab points.

Today's law enforcement referee team is from Spain. The referee is Velasco. Velasco has not law enforcement in Juventus games before, and he has only law enforcement for Bayern. Marseille was eliminated in the middle, and Bayern won 2:0 at that time, but Velasco gave Bayern a full five yellow cards.

This illustrates a problem. Under the training of Heynckes in the past two years, Bayern has been the main offensive team. Their style of play is doomed to be resolute in midfield interception. Fouls are indispensable. There were a lot of fouls in the match against Juventus in one round, but Clattenburg didn't play many cards. After all, he came from the Premier League, but in this game, it can be guessed that Velasco, who was born in Spain, might whistle a little more severely.

As soon as the players on both sides entered the field, the Juventus fans began to create a warm atmosphere, booing the Bayern players hugely, without saying anything, everyone came and went.

"Dear viewers, welcome to the second round of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals in the 12-13 season. Today I bring you a highlight. Juventus played at home against Bayern Munich! The last round was played at Allianz The stadium battle became 2:2, Juventus scored two away goals and had a slight advantage, and today the two teams will have a second round of competition to see who can appear on the stage of the semi-finals!" Sports Tai Hewei introduced the game to everyone.

"Juventus' home strength should not be underestimated. They have been unbeaten for many games, but they also have to be vigilant. The last time they lost at home was given to them by Bayern Munich. At that time, in the 09-10 season, there were two teams in the group stage. When the two teams met, it was Bayern Munich who sent Juventus a 4:1 at Juventus’ home court, knocking Juventus out of the game! In this game, Bayern is fighting with their backs, and it’s really hard to say who will advance to the semi-finals!” Guest commentator Zhang has no obvious bias. He really thinks this game is difficult to guess.

Bayern Munich beat Frankfurt 1-0 last weekend and won the league championship 6 rounds ahead of schedule. Their morale is high. Although Juventus has not won the championship ahead of schedule, it is not too far behind.

Velasco blew the whistle, and the game officially started. Gu Lin, who was wearing Zhang Yuan's No. [-] jersey, and a few Chinese students in the stands showed Zhang Yuan's posters. You must know that no player in China has won the Champions League trophy, and everyone in Korea has them.

The cameras at the scene knew the style very well, and they gave close-ups of these people before the start of the match, but Gu Lin and the others didn't know it at all.

Of course, Heynckes' Bayern has nothing to say. They went straight to the field and started a high-position press, focusing on attacking the two wings. This is their routine. Damn, he can guess what Bayern will do.

He hopes that Juventus will play their own rhythm. If you want to attack, I will defend for the time being. Stand on your heels and slow down your speed. This is no different from kicking the Celtics.

When Bayern attacked the hinterland of Juventus, the speed dropped dramatically. Juventus's two wingbacks, Isla and Asamoah, are not very close to the position now, but focus on defense. Bayern's delivery speed began to slow down.

Soon the ball at Bayern's feet ended in a cross, and Mandzukic failed to get a chance to attack the goal on Chiellini's marking.

Juventus has no high point in the frontcourt, and Conte rarely asks Zhang Yuan to compete with the opponent's defender for a header. Generally speaking, Buffon seldom opened his feet when he played the ball, and started to pass under his feet.

But today it can't work, Bayern is desperate, pressing high, just not letting Buffon play the ball, forcing Buffon to kick.

Buffon has no choice but to wave his hand to signal, I can only use big feet, Zhang Yuan must get the top, forget about Vucinic, he is about the same height as Zhang Yuan, but his confrontation ability and header skills are actually not as good as Zhang Yuan .

Zhang Yuan leaned against Van Buyten, the two were about to confront each other head-on, Zhang Yuan raised his hand to ask for the ball from Buffon in front of the goal.

If he wants it, Buffon has to give it to him. Take a good look at Juventus's frontcourt. Apart from Pogba, Zhang Yuan is the tallest. Pogba has to protect the backcourt, so the ball can only be passed in this direction up.

Buffon passed the ball, and it was really in the direction of Zhang Yuan. There is no suspense. Zhang Yuan failed in the top fight. This kind of pass is really good for Bayern's defense. Martinez and Van Buyten cooperated tacitly. , one competed with Zhang Yuan for the top, and the other swam around to protect him. Zhang Yuan didn't hit the ball, but was pushed back by Van Buyten.
