Football’s First Defender

Chapter 596: Carragher's ridicule

   The 1415 UEFA Champions League final was held at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, Germany.

   On the second day after the elimination of Barcelona, ​​the whole Liverpool team watched another Champions League knockout match and confirmed their opponents in the Champions League final.

   Serie A overlord-Juventus!

   Juventus has returned to Serie A after being relegated by telephone. After several years of dormancy, using its own heritage, Juventus has recovered to become the strongest team in Serie A in recent years.

   After the team completed the monopoly on the Serie A championship in Serie A, they have also begun to focus on their investment in the Champions League in recent years.

   It’s just that, although it was once known as a small World Cup, Italy’s sluggish economy still affected the investment of all Serie A teams.

   Nowadays, the financial resources of Serie A teams have dropped drastically, making even Juventus, its team worth and investment ability, among the giants in Europe, it is no longer the kind of local team in the actual sense.

Take a look at Juventus’ starting lineup. Except for their own youth training players, Italian local players, and other foreign players, they are basically "abandoned players" eliminated by other top giants. These players have not played their worth in other top giants. The players who could not get the main guarantee were "taken over" by Juventus at a low price, and then formed a champion team that swept Serie A.

   This year Juventus broke into the Champions League final is actually somewhat surprising.

   After the semi-final draw, most media and fans predicted that Real Madrid and Barcelona could qualify.

   Especially in the matchup between Real Madrid and Juventus, many people think that Real Madrid got a "big gift package."

   As a result, it turns out that the Spanish national derby in the favorite UEFA Champions League final was not staged again.

   Liverpool reversed Barcelona at home and successfully represented the Premier League in the final.

   And Real Madrid, on the way to the first defending champion after the reform of the Champions League, was once again killed by the old general.

Morata and his predecessor Morientes did the same, in the Champions League semi-finals, breaking through the old main gate, letting Real Madrid's efforts for a season vanished, and completely shattered Ancelotti, the galactic warship. .

  Many Chinese netizens say that Real Madrid and the old generals surnamed "Mo" guilty, in the future Modric will definitely end Real Madrid, or send out to Europe, and Modric must not be allowed to kill the old master...

   The two "Western Super League" teams once again all fell into the sand in the semi-finals, but Liverpool and Juventus will join the UEFA Champions League final.

   In order to represent the Champions League champion of the Premier League, Liverpool went to Berlin to prepare for the match one week before the start.

   and rented the training field in Hertha Berlin to adapt to the weather and climate in Germany.

   After the UEFA Champions League match is confirmed, the media is more optimistic about Liverpool.

   However, Liverpool will not be touted by this media and affect their preparations.

   For many Liverpool players, this is the first time to participate in a major event like the Champions League final.

The veteran who participated in the Istanbul night, so far, Liverpool has only left the Jie team. According to Jie’s statement in the team, "It's only the Champions League final. Just let go of the game. Don't worry about falling behind, as long as you don’t fall behind. With four balls, we still have a chance..."

  Of course, Yang Feng, and Chelsea once won the Champions League trophy, but such a "flat and stable" final, far less than the final that Gerrard participated in, it is worth "bragged"!

   Unlike Juventus’s solemn atmosphere, the Liverpool side was very relaxed in the training before the start of the Champions League.

   This may be the difference in football culture. The style of Italian football is perfectly embodied in this Juventus team, and Liverpool more like to represent the spirit of "happy football" in England.

   "It's a pity, I knew I would be on the bench for another year!"

   Carragher, as a famous Liverpool star, is naturally the best choice for Sky Sports commentators in such a major game involving Liverpool.

"At this time last year, I felt like I was earning blood. I had planned to retire, and then I was persuaded by Gerrard and Yang Feng to stay for another year. Although I only played a dozen games as a substitute, I personally won the coveted Premier League championship. , Raised the championship trophy, thinking that life should be fulfilled like this."

   "But when I look at it now, Gerald and Yang Feng didn't persuade me to stay for another year. It's really a'heinous crime'"

   "The defending champion of the Premier League, a champion of the English League Cup, and the upcoming Champions League champion."

   "The honour of the Triple Crown, and the supreme honour of a Champions League champion, this is not a blood loss..."

   Carragher's complaint is also the best compliment to this group of Liverpool players.

   No one thought that at the beginning of the season, when Suarez left the team, Liverpool had achieved such a dazzling record after a short run-in.

   The double crown has been won, can the third crown be far behind?

   "We have got the starting list of both sides."

   "Juventus, the starting goalkeeper of this game is still Italy goalkeeper Buffon."

   "The back line, from left to right are Evra, Barzagli, Bonucci, and Lichsteiner. Chiellini’s absence due to injury is definitely a huge loss to Juventus’ defense."

   "In midfield, Vidal, Pogba, Marchisio and Pirlo are the four starting midfielders for Juventus today."

   "The striker is the'beast' Tevez who is glowing with the second spring ~lightnovelpub.net~ and Morata, who switched from Real Madrid to Juventus this season."

"Juventus's 442 lineup, as always, is both offensive and defensive. If there are any hidden dangers, it may be Chiellini’s inability to play, which will cause a certain amount of openness in Juventus’s defense. I don’t know the Italian-style chain defense. Whether to contain Liverpool’s offensive impact in today’s game."

   "Liverpool is still the team's most familiar 433 lineup."

   "The entire back line has not changed, and it is still the most familiar group of five."

   "Goalkeepers Mignole, Moreno, Yang Feng, Scotter and Flanagan lined up from left to right."

   "In terms of the choice of three midfielders, Henderson has always been the main force that can't be beaten. In the combination of the other two midfielders, Rogers chose Lallana, who has performed well recently, and Lucas, who has the strongest defensive ability."

   "Gerard is still on the bench. Whether it is a Premier League game or the Champions League, Gerrard has adapted to the role of a super substitute, and has repeatedly contributed key goals or assists 30 minutes after the game."

   "There is no surprise in the configuration of the three forwards."

   "Coutinho, Sturridge, and Sterling."

"For Juventus's tall defense, this game may not be afraid of Liverpool's set-kick tactics, but how to limit the defensive end such as extremely flexible, extremely fast Coutinho and Sterling? People will be the biggest test for Juventus..."
