Chapter 449: I am the only one who can be arrogant in my territory

Leiden Oriental, who won the championship four rounds ahead of schedule, sent all the substitutes in the next league game, and most of the main players stayed in London to rest. Xiao Ming only brought sixteen players to Manchester. In the end, Leiden Oriental tied with Manchester City 1-1 away, continuing his unbeaten record in the league.

Only eighteen teams have much looser schedules in Serie A than in the Premier League. Juventus defeated Roma 2-1 at home in the 29th round, and continued to maintain his six-point advantage over Inter Milan in the league, and came to London to prepare for the second leg of the quarter-finals that will begin.

Of course, Leighton Oriental's main left-back Ashley Cole was unable to play due to suspension. At the same time, Gerrard broke his thigh in the first round and did not play in the next three league rounds. He is likely to miss the game due to injury. However, Juventus has no good news. Trezeguet's injury is even more serious than expected. It was originally expected to be able to catch up with the second round, but now it seems that he cannot catch up with the game. Lippi still has only Piero, Salayeta and Divayo three forwards can be used.

However, compared with Ashley Cole and Gerrard of Leiden East who were unable to play and had lost Jin Clarze, Juventus' staffing is still complete. But Lippi was a little confused. Is Gerrard really seriously injured and unable to play, or is it the smoke bombs released by Xiao Ming...

Xiao Ming knew in his heart that it was not a smoke bomb. After Gerald injured his thigh, he thought it was not a major injury at first. However, after careful examination, Levin told Xiao Ming that Gerald often injured his thighs in the past or two seasons, which has become an old problem. It is best to let him rest for a while, otherwise it will easily become a habitual strain. At that time, the strong Gerald may become very fragile...

In this regard, Xiao Ming immediately flashed through his mind. Brazilian midfielder Mota, who performed well in Inter Milan after debuting in Barcelona. This guy also often strains. After that, every time he gets injured, he is a muscle strain. He can only play half of the game intermittently in a season. If Gerald becomes this bird, he will still be furious.

Levine proposed to give Gerald a thorough rest for one month to recover from physical therapy, which means that Gerald will not only miss this game, but if Leiden Oriental enters the semi-finals of the Champions League, he will also miss the first leg of the game...

It is actually easy to deal with Gerald's absence. After all, Pirlo is there. Although he does not have Gerald's ability to run the whole game, his organization and dispatch ability can perform well on the court with Marklele's support. He performed extremely well after he came on the bench in the last away game against Juventus. However, Ashley Cole was absent. Should he let Garney play or Sun Jihai go...

Can Sun Jihai withstand the impact of Camoranesi and even Nedved? Garney is older and this season is his last season at Leiden East. Can he still perform well in such a high-intensity game? Although he performed well after appearing in the first two league games, how can the three newly promoted teams in the Premier League be compared with giants like Juventus...

So in fact, Xiao Ming faced even greater trouble than Lippi's...

In this case, the time soon reached April 23, and Leiden Oriental played against Juventus at home.

After careful consideration, Xiao Ming still sent Garney as the main left-back and used his experience to deal with the opponent's impact. Garney has not played many games this season, and there is no physical problem. Pirlo replaced Garard, and he is still in the four or four. At his home court, Xiao Ming will not choose to be conservative.

Lippi, who had to score a goal, was not conservative. He sent a formation of 4312, with Divayo and Piero partnering with the forward line, behind them was Nedved, and behind Nedved were Camoranesi, Tachinadi and Davis, and Tudor sat on the bench - he was more suitable to play as a central defender.

Amid the shouts of the fans of the audience, players from both sides appeared!

It was raining in London today. As the raindrops drifted, players from both sides were scattered on the court. Melodious whistles sounded from the center of the court, and tide-like shouts surged into the court, and the game officially began!

"The game has begun! The first one to kick off was Leiden East, who played at home. They launched a fierce attack like a tide from the beginning of the game! Juventus defended in the midfield. Juventus performed well in the Champions League this season, but they only won one game in the away game in the Champions League this season, which was defeated Dynamo Kiev away in the first stage of the Champions League... In the second stage of the group stage, they even lost to Basel, who was at the bottom of the group. If it weren't for the excellent results at home, they would have lost away to Basel, who was at the bottom of the group.

They didn't even have the chance to enter the quarterfinals of the Champions League. They did perform well in their previous home games, but they were tied one-to-one by Leiden Oriental. Before the game, most people were not optimistic about Juventus being able to escape on Brisbane Road. Some people were wondering if Leiden Oriental would be able to qualify because they only needed a zero-to-zero draw. However, judging from their momentum after the opening, they did not seem to have planned to qualify through defense... OK! Figo broke through Zambrota on the right, and Leiden Oriental had a very threatening attack from the beginning!”

After a beautiful flash of Zanbrota, Figo continued his good form in the first round, observing the situation in the penalty area while moving forward, and then making a cross before Zanbrota returns to defense!

The ball bypassed the front point and flew straight to the back point in the middle of the penalty area. Ronaldo, who was inserted at high speed, headed the ball towards the goal. The ball was above the crossbar, and there was a sigh in the stands.

Ronaldo, who landed, staggered for a moment, then touched his head. The ball slipped when it rained, and he was not a striker who was good at heading the ball. It's a pity that Figo made a beautiful cross this time.

Juventus, who was defiant at the beginning of the game, immediately launched a counterattack. Compared with Leiden Oriental, they were even more reluctant to accept a zero-to-zero draw. In this game, they had to score a goal, at least one goal, to have the opportunity to appear on the list of participating teams in the semi-finals.

Davis made a long pass from the top in the midfield, and Divayo inserted at high speed and almost formed a single shot. Fortunately, Giarni returned to defense very quickly. Divayo hesitated and was chased by him and then stretched out his foot to stab Divayo's ball under his feet. Jasklenen attacked and cleared the ball with big feet.

Tachinadi headed the ball down, Juventus launched an attack again, and Camoranesi broke through along the right side to force the breakthrough of Giarni's defense. Giarni immediately fouled and pulled Camoranesi down with his backhand, blocking the opponent's attack.

"It seems that these guys want to focus on our left side." Xiao Ming said to himself.

"Robert has a lot of experience, and the foul just now was very timely." said McDonald.

Xiao Ming nodded without saying anything. There will be no problem in a short period of time. However, if a defender often needs to use fouls to stop the opponent's attack, then it may not be far from being beaten up - how long can Garney support it? Lippi will definitely not let go of this more obvious flaw in this game...

Camoranesi took the penalty for Juventus' free kick. With the players from both sides concentrating in the penalty area, he did not directly hang the ball into the penalty area, but instead sent a low ball directly to the front of the penalty area!

Nedved, who was inserted in the back row, received the ball at the front of the penalty area, and immediately shot from a distance twenty-seven meters away from the goal!

The ball passed through the dense crowd, and the Juventus fans in the stands almost cheered. However, Jasqueline showed excellent reaction quality. Although the vision was blocked by the defensive players in front of him, he still responded immediately when the ball came out of the crowd, and rushed sideways and almost pushed the ball out of the crossbar with one hand!

"Beautiful job! Eussi!" Hypia ran up and hugged his national teammates. This save was really exciting.

Juventus' corner kick did not pose any threat. After Leiden East took the ball, it began to organize the attack. Pirlo dribbled the ball from the middle and made a two-way match with Figo and Ronaldo in succession, and then broke into the 30-meter area, and then passed it straight to Van Nie in front. After Fanny took the ball, he turned around and shot. The ball flew straight to the dead corner. Buffon also made a wonderful save and blocked the ball to the sideline with one hand. Zambrota made a mistake under Figo's press. After grabbing the ball, Figo passed back to Daniel who was inserted to assist. Daniel made another cross. Buffon, who attacked, hit the ball out of the penalty area with both fists, and Tachinadi cleared the ball with big feet.

Divayo dropped the ball to Piero in his chest. Piero passed the ball to Nedved on the left. Nedved broke through along the side, forcibly dodged the ball and then passed the penalty area diagonally. Divayo took the ball before Campbell, Jasquelenin attacked, Divayo passed the ball to the back point in time, Piero inserted it at high speed, and stretched his foot in front of Hypia and stabbed the ball into the empty goal!

The entire Brisbane Road stadium immediately became quiet, and Juventus unexpectedly took the lead!

Now is the 16th minute of the game! Juventus broke through Leiden East's goal with a quick counterattack!

"Beautiful! A typical Italian-style defensive counterattack! The cooperation between the three people tear apart the defense line of Leiden East! Now Leiden East is in danger!"

Piero roared and ran around the stadium. This type of goal just now was not what he was good at, but he still beat Hepia in a short sprint. The Zebra Prince was in great form!

"Damn it! Keep attacking, I see how long their counterattack can last!" Xiao Ming roared on the sidelines.

Obviously, Juventus' counterattack was extremely humiliating for Leiden Oriental. In the next game, Leiden Oriental launched a tide-like counterattack like an injured lion!

Although crazy, Pirlo remained calm. He kept passing the ball in the midfield, helping Rophy Figo on both wings and Ronaldo and Fanny ahead to create opportunities. The defense line of Juventus, who had just taken the lead, became precarious.

Buffon had just saved Figo's long shot from the wing, and then immediately faced Ronaldo's shot in the penalty area. No matter how good his reaction was, he began to become a little busy.

Leiden Oriental was completely crazy. They were in good shape, excellent physical fitness, and the excitement of being behind at home. With this tone, they suppressed Juventus tightly at home. For fifteen minutes, the ball never went out to Juventus' halftime.

Even Lippi, who had experienced many storms and waves, was frightened on the sidelines. Once Leiden Oriental's offense opened fire with all its strength, the pressure created was indeed too great. At any location and angle, all offensive players in the frontcourt had the power to change the game process alone. In addition, the confidence accumulated after outstanding performance in the league and the Champions League this season, although Juventus strengthened the interception of the midfield, they were broken by Leiden Oriental again and again, and all the players had to return to defend to resist Leiden Oriental's tide attack.

Ronaldo dribbled the ball from the side and forcibly broke through Toram's defense. Although the Frenchman was tightly attached to Ronaldo, his strength did not seem to have caused much trouble to Ronaldo. After blocking Toram, Ronaldo continued to dribble the ball into the penalty area. Then, after attracting enough attention from the opponent, he suddenly distributed the ball to Pirlo who was inserted outside the penalty area. Pirlo stopped the ball at his feet, and then suddenly shot from the far corner!

Buffon, who was slightly forward, took a few steps backwards in a row, and then pushed the ball out of the crossbar with one hand in a little embarrassed manner.

After making this save, Buffon also breathed a sigh of relief. Leiden East's oppressive attack also put him under tremendous pressure. It seemed that he had to strengthen the counterattack, otherwise he would have been pressed and beaten like this. Even Buffon didn't know if he would make a mistake.

Figo's corner kick was taken directly by Buffon. After running a few steps in the penalty area, Buffon threw the ball out with force: "Pavel, counterattack!"

Buffon chose to pass the ball to Nedved who was more trustworthy. Nedved removed the ball during the run and immediately dribbled forward. Garney came forward. Facing this veteran who had already broken through twice in the game, Nedved chose to make a breakthrough directly!

However, the ball was unable to pass - Garney bravely and decisively fell to the ground and shoveled the ball. Just when Nedved was about to continue grabbing the ball, Garney, who was lying on the ground, swept the ball to Ronaldo in front, and Leiden East counterattacked again!

Ronaldo received the ball, turned around, and forced himself to break through Toulam! The back and forth pendulum style and the oxtail was thrown!

Thuram, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, did not expect that Nedved's attack would be cut off so quickly. A negligence was flashed behind Ronaldo with a series of dazzling fake moves.

However, swaying past Toram does not mean that Ronaldo can move forward quickly. Camoranesi did not push forward since he got up. He had blocked from the side, and Toram who was swung past did not give up, but chased after him from behind.

When he was attacked by two Juventus players, Ronaldo calmly did not forcefully drive the ball and break through. He had already learned a lesson in the last game. When facing this level of defense, his skills and fake moves could not be too good.

After dribbing the ball, he stepped forward a few steps and saw that the opponent was about to form a surround. Many defensive players were also paying attention to themselves. With a push of the arch, Ronaldo distributed the ball from the two opponents to Pirlo who was inserted in the middle. Pirlo did not hesitate for a second, and he directly sent a beautiful pass without stopping the ball!

Pirlo passes the ball, Ronaldo inserts it!

Pirlo's straight pass was behind Ferrara, and Ronaldo also inserted into the penalty area from that place! The scalpel was as sharp as a straight pass!

Sometimes it is so simple to form a single-kill ball - a moving position and passing ball like a heart-to-heart, the ball will come to the person!

If a fan blinked at this time, maybe he would find that the ball that was rolling in the midfield just now has reached Juventus' penalty area, and Ronaldo is the one who controls the ball!

Ronaldo took a step sideways, and did not waste a second of time, and shot with his right foot!

When he raised his foot, Buffon judged that this was a shot to the far corner, but when Buffon started moving, the ball had already flew to the near corner of the goal as fast as possible!

Now even if Buffon has great skills, he cannot save this shot with excellent speed, angle and strength.

As the ball exploded into the net with a snow-white wave, huge cheers burst out in the entire court!

"goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo - Ronaldo again! His goal at the Alpes Stadium allowed Leiden East to take away a draw, and now it was his goal that helped Leiden East equalize the score! After transferring to Leiden East, perhaps Ronaldo's performance was not as eye-catching as Fanny Figo and others in most games, but in such a critical game, Ronaldo showed his top striker's level! One to one, the total score was 2 to two! Both sides completely returned to the starting line, and it is now the 38th minute of the first half!"

Ronaldo flew in the Brisbane Road Stadium with his arms spreading out! Just as a flying dragon spread its wings and roared in anger at the sky!

"So what about Juventus! So what about the best goalkeeper in the world and the best defense line in the world! On Brisbane Road, the two-legged flying dragon is the master here!"

In the stands, a fan from Leiden Oriental opened his arms and shouted these words with a ferocious face. Although this sentence was hidden in the tide of cheers, it was the voice of all Leiden people!
Chapter completed!
