Legend of Fengshen

Chapter 801 The road to comeback is long

At the Vinovo training base, Juventus players are sweating profusely for training. In the gym, there is also a young player sweating profusely.

This hard-working young man is Zhang Yuan, who has been out for more than two months due to injury. He is currently undergoing recovery training in the gym. Players will degenerate their physical skills after a long period of time without normal training. Physical fitness, strength , speed, etc. will all decline to varying degrees. Because of insurance, Zhang Yuan did not train in advance, but rested for a few more days.

"Take a break!" Coratti, the physical trainer, handed Zhang Yuan a bottle of water.

Zhang Yuan, who was out of breath, started to drink immediately. Today's training volume is not heavy, so he started to resume training. This is a gradual process, so it is not that he has to play now that his injury is healed. Get adjusted.

Even though the amount of training is not too large, he is exhausted and out of breath after two months of no training.

"When will I be able to train with the team?" Zhang Yuan asked Coratti.

"Haha, don't worry, take your time! You need a process, you haven't been absent for a long time, I don't think the recovery period will be too long, maybe a week, maybe two weeks is enough!" Coratti I can understand Zhang Yuan's eagerness to play.

Juventus is far from bad on the domestic front in the absence of Zhang Yuan. It is now December 12. Serie A has gone through 3 rounds. Juventus has achieved a record of 14 wins, 12 draw and 1 loss, with 1 points. Points, ranking first, the performance is extremely strong.

This record surprised many outside media. Everyone thought that the absence of Zhang Yuan would greatly affect Juventus' offensive efficiency, and there would be a decline on the third line, but they did not expect that the summer transfer market would not be too big. The big Juventus still maintained a strong position in the league by virtue of Tevez's high-level performance. The record after 14 rounds is the best result in Juventus history.

Ranked second is the Roma team. Roma's performance this season is also extremely strong. After Zeman dismissed get out of class in the Roma team last season, the Roma team has been looking for a capable coach and invited Blanco and Bielsa. , Mancini and other famous coaches, but none of them succeeded. In the end, they chose Rudy Garcia as the new coach.

Rudy Garcia's life is not simple. He is the head coach who led Lille to win the Ligue 2010 double in the 2011-[-] season, and that was also his highlight moment.

After becoming the head coach of the Roma team, he led the Roma team to ten consecutive victories this season. This is not only the best start in the history of Serie A, but also ranks first in the European League. This kind of Roma has given Juventus a lot However, under such heavy pressure, Juventus was also stimulated to its potential and performed very well.

After the ten-game winning streak, the Roma team drew four consecutive games, allowing Juventus to overtake the score. Currently, Roma is ranked second with a difference of 3 points.

Although Juventus dare not relax, at least they still have advantages.

This is the situation in the league, but in the European competition, Juventus played very poorly. After tying Copenhagen in the first round, Juventus accidentally lost to Jingzhou at home in the second round and failed to beat Galla. Tassaray only got one draw, and then they had one draw and one loss against Real Madrid, the strongest team in the group, and finally won Copenhagen at home in the fifth round.

At present, in Group B, Real Madrid has 4 wins and 1 draw, and scored 13 points to secure the first place in the group ahead of time. Juventus scored 6 points and ranked second. Galatasaray scored 4 points and ranked third in the group. Copenhagen ranked fourth in the group. Accumulated 4 points.

In the last round of the group, Juventus will go to Galatasaray's home court. This is a life-and-death battle. If Juventus is tied, they will definitely qualify. If they lose, they will be eliminated.

Although Copenhagen has accumulated 4 points, even if they beat Real Madrid at home, whether it is Juventus or Galatasaray, they have few away goals, so they are definitely unable to enter the knockout round of the Champions League, but For them, there is still qualification for the Europa League knockout round.

Therefore, Zhang Yuan is eager to resume normal training, mainly because he wants to catch up with the game against Galatasaray in time, but now it seems hopeless, because the game against Galatasaray will be held on December 12, the time There is only one week left.

"Don't think about things on the court!" Coratti comforted Zhang Yuan, "Trust your teammates! Your physical function is not particularly good, and taking risks will not be good for you!"

Zhang Yuan still understands this truth. If he takes the risk of increasing the amount of training, he is likely to be injured again, but the gain outweighs the loss.

Before welcoming Galatasaray, Juventus first played an away game against Bologna. In order to prepare for the final round of the Champions League in the middle of next week, Conte took great pains and carried out a series of rotations. Days, the main thing is that Tevez provoked the mainstay of the striker, Llorente also played very well, two people are very important to the current Juventus.

Neither of the two strikers were present in this game. Conte used Giovinco and Quagliarella to partner the striker.

Juventus has won 6 leagues in the league before, and I have to say that Juventus is getting better now. The result of the Champions League match against Real Madrid is not surprising, but the performance in the first two rounds is too bad.

Bologna has performed poorly this season, with only 12 points, and they are only one step away from falling into the relegation zone. Before that, they had lost five rounds. What trouble did Juventus cause? In the end, Juventus beat Bologna 2:0 in the away game, won 7 consecutive league victories, and temporarily led Rome by 7 points in the next game.

Conte is very concerned about Zhang Yuan's resumption of training during this time. His current lineup is relatively fixed. Tevez and Llorente are regular partners on the front line, but he still hopes that Zhang Yuan can come back in time to catch up with the team. Latasere game.

Compared with Tevez and Llorente, Conte's trust in Zhang Yuan comes from many previous games. In many cases, Juventus can't start the game. In good condition, a flash can solve the problem. This is a person who, like Messi and Ronaldo, can rely on one person to change the situation of the game.

How could Conte not expect Zhang Yuan to return to normal training in time for the crucial game, but Coratti told him the very bad news that Zhang Yuan's thigh muscles showed signs of fatigue.

The reason is that Zhang Yuan insisted on increasing the amount of training in the past few days. After training this day, he felt discomfort in his thigh muscles. Coratti judged that it was probably because he did not train according to the original plan and his leg muscles were tired.

In such a situation, if you force yourself to play again, you will probably face the risk of muscle strain, and Conte has nothing to do. It seems that Zhang Yuan can't count on it.

Not only can't be counted on, but Conte, as the head coach, also specifically talked to Zhang Yuan.

"Don't rush for success. Our current situation is not that bad. After all, we are in a favorable position. As long as we don't lose to them, we can qualify! Your task now is to rest well. I promise you, this season's Champions League The league is very difficult, but we will definitely qualify!" Conte made another promise, he is indeed confident, but this kind of promise is more to persuade Zhang Yuan to recover with peace of mind and not to rush for success.

Due to muscle fatigue, Zhang Yuan's training was interrupted and he was unable to participate in the game, but for this game, he still followed the team to Turkey.

Istanbul is a super metropolis straddling the Eurasian continent. The city is a famous sports city and has many professional football clubs. Galatasaray, Besiktas and Fenerbahce are the most famous three professional football club.

These three clubs are the absolute kings of Turkey's top league. The domestic championships are basically won by these three clubs, and they are also frequent visitors in the European competition.

Galatasaray is the best club among these three clubs. They have won 19 league titles in the domestic arena, and they are also the first Turkish club to win an intercontinental championship.
