From the man behind the football king to the football king.

Chapter 188 The last battle in 2014

The long league is always full of ups and downs and uncertainties.

No team can have smooth sailing and will always encounter various problems, such as Juventus.

In the recent intensive schedule, the Old Lady not only suffered three consecutive draws in Serie A and the Champions League, but also paid a heavy price with the injury of main center back Barzagli. This is definitely a big loss for Juventus. .

Subsequently, Juventus continued to compete in the Champions League and Serie A, and the player consumption was too high.

In the 16th round of the league, Juventus defeated Cagliari 3:1 away from home. This victory seemed to show signs of a comprehensive recovery for Juventus, especially considering that in this game, in order to better prepare for the subsequent Italian Super Cup, Allegri also specially arranged for Pirlo to rest.

The victory did not come without a price, that is, the main midfielder Marchisio accumulated yellow cards and was suspended for one round.

But what happened was that it rained all night. On the eve of leaving for Qatar, central defender Chiellini suddenly had a high fever and was unable to go with the team to Qatar to play Udinese. This is undoubtedly adding insult to injury for Juventus.

Barzagli and Chiellini are absent, the two main central defenders are injured, and Marchisio is suspended...

Juventus has been having a tough time recently.

………………

The 2014 Italian Super Cup was not held in Italy, but in Doha, the capital of Qatar in the Middle East. This was decided in early October.

In an interview with reporters, Italian Professional League President Beretta said: "We are very happy to present our Italian Super Cup in an interesting and respected country like Qatar, and we are grateful to them for this opportunity."

The Italian Super Cup held in Qatar will be the seventh time this event has been held overseas. The Italian Super Cup was held overseas for the first time in 7, when it was held in Washington. Subsequently, the event was held in Tripoli, the capital of Libya, and New York, the United States. held. China BJ has hosted this event three times in 1993, 2009 and 2011.

而意大利超级杯在冬季举办也不是第一次，1989年第二届意大利超级杯就在当年的11月29日举行，当时国米凭借库奇和塞雷纳的进球2:0战胜了桑普多利亚捧杯。

In the history of the Italian Super Cup, Milan is the team that has won the most championships, with a total of 6 times. Inter Milan and Juventus have won 5 times together. If Juventus can defeat Naples and win the cup, it will tie Milan's championship record.

For Udinese, this is the first time in their history that they have participated in this tournament.

………………

Before the game started, Guidolin and Allegri shook hands gracefully on the sidelines and then said goodbye.

In today's game, Juventus will use unremitting attacks to defeat Udinese. Since Guidolin has decided to compete with Juventus for the Serie A championship, he has also given the team an order to attack and win.

Therefore, the game has always been a fierce confrontation from the first second.

In this game, Guidolin lined up Udinese’s strongest lineup.

For Juventus, Allegri also fielded the strongest lineup he could field.

The competition was very intense.

The fans enjoyed watching it very much. Unknowingly, the game had already started for fifteen minutes. The score on the field was still 0:0, but the two teams had taken 9 shots in total. Juventus shot 5 times and Uruguay shot 4 times. Dines shot times.

The number of fouls was 6 for Udinese and 5 for Juventus. This also shows the intensity of the game.

………………

Di Rita Leota showed an expression of surprise and said: "Oh, God, this is definitely the most exciting Super Cup game in recent years. In the half game, both sides contributed a total of 27 shots and 4 goals. It was very Wonderful."

"What surprised me was Udinese. I always thought that I knew Udinese and coach Guidolin very well, but until now I still can't believe it. In the battle with Juventus, Udinese did not fall behind at all, they performed very tough! Now I am very much looking forward to the performance of this newly promoted team in Serie A after the winter break."

While the commentators were talking about this, the first half of the game was over, and the electronic scoreboard in the stadium recorded the score at this time: 2:2!

In the 25th minute, Juventus scored, and it was Tevez who scored. Danilo and Maguire scrambled for a clearance, but the ball fell directly at Tevez's feet. The Argentine beast was unceremonious, dribbling the ball into the penalty area and then shot a low shot through Rafael's wicket, 1:0.

However, just a few minutes later, Udinese took advantage of a set piece opportunity and Tello scored with a header to equalize the score.

Then, Udinese went ahead ten minutes later, with Bruno assisting Guillerme, who scored a goal after passing Pirlo to take the lead.

During Udinese's goal, Pirlo looked embarrassed.

After all, Pirlo is old and seems a little powerless when facing the repeated attacks of young people like Guillerme.

However, Udinese's lead did not last until the end of the first half. In the 44th minute, Juventus successfully scored. Evra passed back, Pogba passed the ball from the edge of the penalty area, and Tevez received the ball and dunked it. Maguire hit the lower left corner of the goal.

<divclass="contentadv"> There was also a lot of discussion in the media box. Udinese's performance surprised everyone. Although Udinese is currently 4 points ahead of Juventus in the Serie A standings, many people are watching Come on, the strength of the two teams is not at the same level at all.

But in this Coppa Italia final, the score of 2:2 between the two sides in the first half of the game, and the shooting ratio of 12 to 15, explained everything: Udinese and Juventus did not fall behind in the attack? !

In addition, the performance of French midfielder N'Golo Kante, one of Udinese's double midfielders, also shocked many people. The 24-year-old French midfielder built a line in front of Udinese's penalty area. Barrier, so to speak, if it weren't for Kante's sweeping interception, Juventus would definitely have scored more than two goals.

………………

During the halftime break, Guidolin praised the performance of the players. Although they were scored two goals by Juventus in the first half, the team performed well in the offensive battle with Juventus. The momentum satisfied him.

After the start of the second half, Udinese still maintained a strong offensive momentum and fought against Juventus without any fear.

The offensive and defensive rhythms of the two sides are very fast, and the sparks of you come and go, and the fans are also very enjoyable to watch.

Udinese drove the game at a fast pace, with constant mistakes and fierce fighting.

This kind of game with many mistakes and a fast pace is obviously more suitable for Udinese than Juventus, because compared to the aging Juventus, Udinese players are generally much younger.

Udinese made a mistake. Udinese's young players, like calves, fought back and fought with the opponent, delaying Juventus' counterattack for the first time; but on the other hand, Juventus On Sri Lanka's side, once the ball is lost, although the players will fight back, it is more of a show-off.

In the 61st minute of the game, Guidolin made a substitution. He replaced the team captain Di Natale, who was somewhat unable to run, and replaced him with Muriel.

Guidolin stood on the sidelines and stared at the court. He was in high spirits now. This was a serious confrontation with Juventus. The result of this game would have a great impact on the morale of the Udinese team. .

The success of beating Juventus was nothing less than a baptism for Udinese's spirit and outlook.

At the same time, Guidolin is not without tension in his heart. Compared with Juventus' bench depth, Guidolin does not have many cards to play.

Muriel, who came on the bench, was very active, and the Colombian's speed made Pirlo unspeakable.

Yes, Guidolin caught Pirlo and attacked fiercely. The thirty-five-year-old Italian was shocked and embarrassed.

Guidolin's tactics are very straightforward: several young men with strong firepower take turns to attack the old gentleman. Who can bear this?

First, Muriel used his speed to directly eat Pirlo alive, and Pirlo was forced to use a pulling foul to stop his opponent.

Udinese got a chance to set the ball, and Bruno's free kick went over the crossbar.

………………

Then, Bruno dribbled the ball and suddenly pressed forward. He forced a breakthrough from the center. Pogba came up to intercept. Bruno sent a pass to Guillerme.

Guilherme dribbled the ball forward. He attracted Bonucci to grab the ball. He suddenly stopped, cut inside, and tried to shoot. Pirlo was attracted to intercept, but he suddenly spiked the ball and poked the toe of his left foot. Football came from Italy. The veteran rolled over, and Guilherme twisted his waist and accelerated from the other side.

"The ball passed!"

"Pirlo was in a very awkward situation!"

This time, Pirlo didn't even have the chance to foul. He wanted to pull Guilherme, but Guilherme had already dribbled the ball away from him. Pirlo could only watch as Guilherme led the ball horizontally. After getting rid of the pursuit of two Juventus players, he suddenly knocked the ball with his heel and rolled back from the side of the pursuing Vidal.

"Pretty!"

Then, people saw a figure in a blue jersey rushing up.

"Bruno Fernandez!"

Bruno didn't stop the ball and volleyed directly.

Pogba, who was originally tracking Bruno, didn't expect that Bruno would intervene so resolutely this time, nor did he expect that Guillerme would knock the ball with his heel after getting rid of people continuously.

Buffon is worthy of being one of the best goalkeepers in today's football. He reacted very quickly and successfully saved the ball. However, Bruno's shot was extremely powerful. The ball was slowed down by Buffon's left palm, but it did not It stopped, but continued flying after a deflection, and then flew into the net close to the right post of the goal.
