Chapter 843 Juventus' Small Action
Louison was tall and burly, so he was caught off guard by the ball. The ball quickly passed under his crotch, and Dotul's position this time made it too late for him, so he could only watch the ball go to the far corner.

Tevez charged at the far end, slowed down when he expected the ball to go in, and watched the ball go in.

Zhang Yuan stared at the ball after shooting. It was ideal. The trajectory of the ball developed exactly as he expected, and it went into the goal smoothly.

Zhang Yuan opened his arms and rushed to the sidelines in front of the visiting team's stand. He slid and knelt down. There were very few Juventus fans who came to watch the away game today, but they were already ignited by Zhang Yuan's goal. Coming over, they cheered Zhang Yuan's name vigorously.

This is his personal victory. Once again, Zhang Yuan staged a solo breakthrough on the court, and once again saved the disadvantaged Juventus.

Conte also became excited because of this goal. It is too difficult to score a goal. The current time point is very good for Juventus. Jesus just completed the substitution and plans to strengthen the defense. If it takes longer, with The physical fitness of Juventus players has declined, and it can be foreseen that it will be more difficult to score goals. Now, although it is currently a draw, Juventus has an away goal, which is a good advantage.

Jesus can only secretly scold Almeida's pass skills in his heart, no one is pressing you, you make a mistake like this, if this game ends like this, Jesus will definitely regret replacing Almeida.

Of course, he would also blame the collective absence of the Benfica players, how many people in a row? !Can this kind of drama be staged? !It happened when the defensive formation was relatively complete. This is of course because Zhang Yuan is indeed super capable, but this is also the reason why the Benfica players are collectively distracted and hesitant!
After the re-kick-off, Conte directed the players to slow down. For Juventus, it is good to get a draw now. They must not make too many offensive mistakes to avoid giving Benfica a chance to counterattack.

Benfica is much more active, but Jesus did not dare to let his team completely give it a go. If Juventus scored a second away goal and won a victory, it would be even more important. Misfortune for Benfica.

Each had their own reservations, but the confrontation seemed a little fierce. Benfica's midfielder Perez was particularly active. In the 75th minute, Juventus got a chance to set the ball in the frontcourt. Pirlo passed the ball to the penalty area. Chiellini, who was fighting for the top of the field, received a malicious elbow from Perez.

Originally, this foul was certain, but the point is that the referee didn't notice it, so although Chiellini expressed his dissatisfaction, Perez still escaped the punishment of the red card.

Immediately afterwards, Juventus did not dare to show weakness, and Markovic, who was not in good shape, was shoveled viciously by Asamoah on the side.

The two sides fought again, the referee showed a yellow card to Asamoah, and Jesus yelled at his players. He expressed his dissatisfaction. The object of his dissatisfaction was why his players chatted endlessly. Time is running out, no need to get into a fight over a card, time to score!

Under his command, the Benfica players stabilized their minds. In the last 10 minutes, they boldly used the strategy of pressing high in the frontcourt. Conte replaced Tevez and then let Llorente play. Lent went to play the center position, but let Llorente continue to play Tevez's position, giving Llorente some orders, let him go back to the defense and press.

Llorente's defensive skills are of course not very good, but fortunately, he has plenty of physical fitness, long feet and long hands, which can be used, and it still plays a good role in the defense of the midfield.

As for Zhang Yuan, he stayed in the frontcourt to seize opportunities to counterattack, but it is a pity that Jesus is very concerned about his marking, and the back line will never be too high. Watch Zhang Yuan.

In the end, under the referee's whistle, the game ended, and Jesus' Benfica had no choice but to get a draw at home. This result is not very good, but it is not completely without a chance of advancement.

At the press conference after the game, Jesus said: "This result is definitely not what we want, but we still have a second round. Although Juventus will become stronger at home, we still have confidence in the promotion." confidence!"

Talking about this game, Jesus believed that the team lost quite unjustly, "We played well in general! But it is really inappropriate to let Zhang Yuan dribble the ball at will. Our players need to be on the court every time. You must keep your focus at all times, otherwise you will definitely suffer. Today is a good example. I hope we will not make such mistakes in the next round. In short, it is a bit unfair to lose today!"

Both teams performed well in the middle and backcourt. In fact, today everyone’s shots were equally divided. Benfica only scored 9 times, while Juventus only scored [-] times. It can be seen that everyone is very cautious in such a battle. How to prevent the other party from putting more effort.

Benfica also did not play the offensive method they are good at.

Conte called it a fluke in his post-match evaluation, "Of course a game of this level is very difficult! And today's game is a good illustration of this point. I said before the game that it will be a difficult game." The game! They are worthy of respect, they have done a good job on both ends of the offense and defense. We may have more opportunities to threaten the ball in this game, but we are also lucky to get a draw! Anyway, the result is okay for us Accepted, the next round will be decisive!"

Zhang Yuan also accepted the reporter's interview after the race, the focus of course was his solo ride through the barrier.

"Is this ball beautiful?! I think it's okay!"

"I didn't think about anything else, I just wanted to take it down. I was lucky to score the ball! A draw is also very important to us!"

On the day of the game, the Juventus team did not return to Turin, but continued to stay in Lisbon for one night, and returned to Turin by plane the next morning.

The story about this game is not over. Chiellini said after the game that the elbow hit, Perez is the main midfielder of Benfica, Juventus began to think of ways to beat the opponent at this time, they reported to UEFA Filed a complaint, submitted relevant materials, proved that Perez was a malicious foul, and requested UEFA to intervene in the investigation.

The on-duty referee of the game actually did not mention this matter in the game report, and UEFA needs time to confirm and inquire.

It was not until the day before the second round that UEFA asked Benfica to investigate Perez's elbow. Said, angry at UEFA, "UEFA wants Juventus to enter the final and win the championship, especially considering the commercial interests, there is no doubt about it. They want to see a traditional giants in Cardiff. To participate in the UEFA Super Cup, but Benfica is also a giant. In the UEFA standings, Benfica ranks 6th, which can prove it. If you only consider the factors on the field, then football is a wonderful sport. However, if football is If it is influenced by off-field interests, then the so-called charm of football is not worth mentioning."

This speech is quite decent, and it makes people think about it. It is said that the current chairman of UEFA is Michel Platini. He is a famous player of Juventus. Benfica survey.

Juventus met Sassuolo on Sunday night. This is an away game. Sassuolo is currently in the bottom three position. The situation is critical and they will be relegated. Their only consolation now is that Chievo and Bologna in front The points are similar to theirs. Among them, Bologna and Sassuolo have the same points, and Chievo is only two points higher than them.

There are still four rounds left in the league, and they still have a chance. Zhang Yuan did not play in this game. It was not Conte who arranged for him to rest, but because his daughter had a fever and was admitted to the hospital the day before the game. He must take care of his daughter. Asked for leave from the team and did not travel with the team.

However, his absence did not have much impact. Both Tevez and Llorente were in good form. They scored a goal each to help Juventus win Sassuolo 3:1 in the away game.
