Chapter 265: If you don’t make a sound, you will be amazing!
The game continues.
Allegri looked sad.
He sent Di Maria on the field just after he recovered from injury. Although his attitude was positive, it seemed that he had not recovered to his best condition.
Cuadrado is also a year older and his ability to get forward has further declined.
Many Juventus fans blamed Vlahovic for scoring only 7 goals in half a season after he came to Juventus in the winter window last season, far less than his 17 goals in the first half of the season.
Allegri has a lot of pain in his heart but can't express it.
If he had two or three hundred million, or if he had better luck, he wouldn't be so strapped for cash in terms of staffing.
Pogba, Felix Correa, Bonucci, Arthur and Chiesa are all injured, and even Szczesny and Di Maria have returned to the team in a hurry.
We received such an "injury package" at the beginning of the season. We are already very lucky to have 1 win and 1 draw.
At this time, Pogba, who was sitting in the stands, suddenly lost interest in flirting with the beautiful female companion next to him.
Of course, he was not unhappy because Juventus was equalized.
As the winner of the European Golden Boy Award in 2013, he did not take Chen Xiaoliang seriously, even though the Reds had played against Manchester United once in the Europa League two seasons ago on behalf of Glasgow Rangers, and Pogba had also experienced Chen Xiaoliang's steals at that time.
But Pogba, who has a very high self-esteem, has always believed that Chen Xiaoliang is just an engineering player who can only sweep the midfield and backcourt.
Normally, he doesn't spend a lot of his spare time studying football like Chen Xiaoliang. When he is not playing games or training, his life is filled with entertainment, socializing and getting a haircut.
Especially that hairstyle, which has to be changed in every game.
So when he returned to Serie A and learned that Chen Xiaoliang was the best player of Serie A last season, he complained that the Italian Football Association always placed too much emphasis on defense.
In today's game, he even felt that the team's poor performance was not a bad thing. At least they could achieve a "strong rebound" after his comeback, which would also prove his own worth.
However, after watching 37 minutes of the game today, until he saw Chen Xiaoliang's shocking sideways volley just now, he couldn't believe what he saw and what the Red Country midfielder did on the court.
He always believed that as long as he returned to Serie A, he would be the best midfielder.
What Barrera is, he is just a rough guy;
What Brozovic, he is just physically stronger, he smokes and drinks every day, unlike me, who only perms his hair;
What Rabiot? When I was in the national team, didn’t he play as a substitute for me?
As for the others, Calhanoglu, Locatelli, and Milinkovic-Savic, they are all not worth mentioning.
When I helped Juventus win four consecutive Serie A titles, which one of them was worthy of carrying my shoes?
However, this red boy in front of me is a bit difficult to deal with.
After struggling for 10 minutes, Pogba turned his attention to the beautiful girls around him.
The first half ended with a stalemate between the two sides and ended in halftime.
What’s interesting is that all the Roma players on the field returned to the locker room, while the players on the bench were doing warm-up training on the field.
Of course, this also includes Kvaratskhelia.
Mourinho did not say anything much about tactics in the locker room. He just asked the players to have a good rest and then meditate on the very detailed tactics that the team had arranged before the game.
In his mind, the 45 minutes of the first half had proved to him that even if he ensured the defense and moved Chen Xiaoliang back, it would still be difficult to break through Juventus' heavy defense by relying solely on the cooperation between Cesco, Dybala and two other teammates.
Another reason for this is that Juventus players are too familiar with Dybala, and their targeted defense against him is much better than that of other teams.
It has been two months since Kvaratskhelia reported to the Trigoria base at the end of June.
The Champions League group draw has also been announced. According to reports from the media, scouts, and agents, Liverpool has no plans to purchase a new full-back.
The secret weapon that has been hidden for two months is finally ready to be used.
For Chen Xiaoliang, it was of course a very happy thing to score a wonderful goal in the first half and achieve three consecutive goals in the league.
But in the system, not only did the rival mission fail at the start, but even the superstar mission targeting Di Maria did not go smoothly. Throughout the first half, he failed to steal the ball from Di Maria's feet once.
It's not that he can't do it, but Di Maria doesn't give him the chance to get close. As long as the two get close, the Argentine winger will definitely transfer the ball immediately.
It’s not that he was so eager to complete the task, but he was full of curiosity about what kind of reward Di Maria’s superstar mission would give.
In a de-pressurized atmosphere, Roma players walked out of the locker room, but Matic and Zalewski changed into sports jackets.
The fourth official raised the card before the start of the game, No. 7 Pellegrini replaced No. 8 Matic, and No. 77 Kvaratskhelia replaced No. 59 Zalewski.
99% of Juventus fans have never heard of this Georgian's super long name.
Many people were even glad that Zalewski, who had performed hard in the first half, was substituted, believing that the right-side combination of De Sciglio and Cuadrado could exert more offensive power.
However, soon, these Turin people and even the whole of Italy will remember this unfamiliar name that has just arrived in Serie A.
“Beep!”
In the second half, Roma kicks off!
Cesco kicked the ball in the center circle to Pellegrini behind him, and Pellegrini passed it back to Chen Xiaoliang.
Then the players in the midfield and frontcourt began to slowly advance the formation.
After receiving the ball, Chen Xiaoliang did not wait and directly made a low pass of 35 meters to the front left.
Kwa was already there waiting to catch the ball.
Cesco, who was running forward and looking back, was delighted: Damn, you two are serious!
Enzo also showed an expectant look.
During their extra training, looking at the three players who have already shined in the new season, even Enzo, who was a newcomer with him, has gradually become the team's starting main force. Despite Mourinho's promise, Kva couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
While constantly encouraging Kwa, Chen Xiaoliang also joked with him, saying that when he started in a strong match, he would pass the ball to him at the beginning, and then told him "must" pass all the players on the wing and rush into the penalty area to shoot and score.
Cesco and Enzo thought that this was just a joke by Chen Xiaoliang to cheer up Kva, but they didn't expect that Chen Xiaoliang really passed the ball. After the ball was kicked, he waved his left hand forward, signaling Kva to rush up.
Coincidentally, not only did Chen Xiaoliang not take this as a joke, but Kwa himself did not take it as a joke either.
So when he received the ball and saw Cuadrado slowly running towards him near the center line, he immediately entered combat mode.
Kva dribbled the ball to Cuadrado, pushed the ball to his right foot with his left foot, and suddenly tilted his body to the right, as if he was going to cut inside. Cuadrado immediately took the bait and went to Kva's inside route to try to block his advance.
Unexpectedly, the ball rolled to his right foot and bounced back to his left foot. Kova pushed the ground with his right foot and rushed forward directly, passing Cuadrado in an instant and also completed the start.
Cuadrado subconsciously chased for two steps and then stopped, because he saw De Sciglio and Rabiot were near the ribs of the penalty area, so there was no need for him to chase them all the way back.
However, he was totally wrong.
Seeing Kva advancing at high speed, Rabiot did not go up to defend immediately, but handed it to the right-back De Sciglio who was facing him head-on.
Although De Sciglio didn't know what was going on with Kva, he was still on high alert when defending against her and didn't dare to be careless.
Kva came in front of him, slowed down and began to dribble with small steps. De Sciglio also stepped back sideways, gradually shortening the distance between himself and Kva until he was able to get into the range of the steal.
Suddenly, just like when he passed Cuadrado just now, Kva made another move to cut inside. De Sciglio did not take the bait completely and only moved slightly inside. Unexpectedly, Kva went straight in.
Rabiot saw something was wrong and immediately rushed over to fill the position. De Sciglio also quickly sped up to chase him, but as soon as he caught up, Kva suddenly stopped, knocked the ball to the left with his right heel, changed direction in an instant and rushed towards the baseline again.
De Sciglio changed direction for the third time and chased after Kva, but Kva, who was already inside the penalty area, no longer intended to avoid physical confrontation. He leaned on De Sciglio's body and forced the ball inside.
Sure enough, after entering the penalty area, Desilia knew that it would be difficult to attack Kva.
In the middle, Pellegrini was in position on the right side , while Sesco continued to fight with Bremer on the left side.
But the scene in front of him was too familiar to Cesco. Kva broke through the baseline, and they had practiced the tactics of flanking the middle and attacking. They had practiced them for two whole months in extra training!
Not only did he call all the defenders of the first team to serve as sparring partners and abuse them, but when the defenders of the first team refused to come, he even called the young players from the reserve team and youth team to abuse them.
As if his body had reacted naturally, Cesco suddenly stepped back and prepared to receive Kva's inverted triangle pass!
Bremer refused to give in and immediately chased after him.
At the moment when Bremer's center of gravity started and his body leaned forward, Cesco immediately ran back and moved forward towards the goal again, catching Bremer off guard!
When people arrive, the ball arrives; when the ball arrives, people arrive!
Kva fell back and pushed the ball towards the small penalty area line with the toe of his right foot!
Szczesny was stuck at the near post, and the ball was suddenly passed to him, so he had no time to fall to the ground to intercept it!
Zhan Jun: "Middle! Cesco shoots!"
“This ball goes in!!!”
"In the first attack at the beginning of the second half, Roma's new player this season, Kvaratskhelia, known as the Georgian Messi, broke through the three-man defense on the wing and rushed into the penalty area. He provided an assist as soon as he came on the field in the official game! He helped Cesco score from the middle!"
"Juventus lost 1-2 to Roma at home!"
Zhang Lu: "This player is amazing! Although he is not very fast, his change of rhythm and grasp of the timing of passing are very good."
Zhan Jun: "Kva, whose transfer fee was only 10 million euros, was forced to leave the Russian Premier League half a year ago because of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. He asked his agent to help him find a team in Europe, but he couldn't find a team to take him in. He had to return to his home country Georgia and temporarily join Batumi Dynamo to avoid the embarrassment of having no ball to play!"
"Who would have thought that it was Riise again! This former Norwegian cannon, the cannon defender, is actually a man of great talent. After Cesco, he recommended Kova to Roma. It looks like this will become another story of a good horse breeder and a good horse!"
After scoring the goal, Cesco did not celebrate himself, but rushed towards Kva!
Enzo, Chen Xiaoliang, and other teammates all rushed over!
Gold will always shine!
They knew Kwa's strength better than anyone else, and all he needed to wait for was an opportunity!
Forti on the sidelines was also very excited. Although he was once a professional player, with his talent and ability, he would not be able to play football like Chen Xiaoliang, Cesco and Kva even if he practiced for 30 years.
He couldn't believe that the team actually had a new genius!
And the fact that he could become Mourinho's assistant coach and help him coach these geniuses was far beyond his expectations when he came to Rome!
How lucky I am! What more could I ask for?
He excitedly said to Mourinho: "Jose! With such a wing, we will definitely be able to beat all the teams in Serie A! And the Champions League! The Champions League is no exception!"
Mourinho was also very happy, but he smiled and shook his head slightly: "Although I hope so, it is impossible. Even Messi can't dribble past several people in every game, let alone this kid."
"If Allegri doesn't want to lose everything, he will definitely strengthen the defense on Kvart's side."
"And today's performance of this kid will be immediately displayed on the computer desktops of the game scouts and analysts of various teams, who will conduct a detailed analysis of him in depth. So after a few rounds, when he is no longer so fresh, he will immediately face an endless stream of targeted defenses."
But this day will come. He can't sit on the bench forever. His quality is there and he has the ability to become the best winger in Serie A."
Forti: "Jose, Liverpool's right side is not easy to deal with either, they have Arnold and..."
Mourinho smiled contemptuously: "Arnold? Do you know why I put him on today?"
Forti: "Isn't it because you want to wait for the Champions League group to come out?"
Mourinho: "I'm afraid it's too early for him and Klopp will be in a hurry to buy a right back, hahahaha!"
"Arnold? You should watch the recent Premier League games and the England national team's games this summer. Just look at his performance. Wait and see what Kwa can do with the current Arnold."
On the court, Chen Xiaoliang excitedly hugged Kwa to celebrate!
Finally, it was done! Although Cesco scored the goal, his one-on-one pass from the wing made everyone understand that it was time for Kvaratskhelia, this unfamiliar name, to become famous!
Tomorrow, fans all over Italy and even the world will remember this name!
The conservative Allegri could no longer sit still, and he asked Kostic, McKennie and Zakaria to start warming up.
“Beep!”
Vlahovic kicks off from the center circle and the game continues!
What makes Mourinho very satisfied and Allegri very headache is that Kva is not only a great threat in offense, but also retreats as much as he can on defense, and cooperates very well with Enzo who is responsible for the left half of the defense. One is the main defender and the other is the assisting defender, and they have a tacit understanding.
In the 54th minute, Juventus launched a strong attack on the right, but Cuadrado, despite the help of Rabiot and Mireti, was unable to break through the double defense of Kva and Enzo, not to mention that there was Malaysia behind them who was ready to steal the ball at any time.
Cuadrado cut inside the middle and advanced diagonally towards Enzo.
In addition to Rabiot, Locatelli also pressed forward to create a numerical advantage in the middle.
Chen Xiaoliang moved inward to the middle and took position in advance.
Cuadrado immediately passed the ball to Di Maria on the left side, and the Argentine shot directly from 30 meters outside the penalty area. Patricio did not dare to receive the ball directly in the face of the extremely fast ball, but punched it out of the penalty area with both fists.
In the middle, Chen Xiaoliang faced his own goal, watched the ball flying from the sky and falling near his area, and took small steps back to prepare to catch the ball.
Rabiot, who had just joined the attack behind him, also rushed over and prepared to head the ball.
Although Chen Xiaoliang did not see anyone coming from behind, he vaguely felt that something was wrong. He jumped up and headed the ball instead, as he was originally preparing to use his chest to block the ball.
As a result, because he jumped later than Rabiot, when he jumped, Rabiot had already flown over his head.
Chen Xiaoliang's jump directly hit Rabiot, causing him to lose his balance and fall heavily to the ground.
There was another exclamation from the whole audience. Rabiot did not move, but just raised his left hand and waved. The referee Orsato immediately asked the Juventus team doctor to enter the field.
Allegri just made a substitution.
Zakaria replaced Rabiot, McKennie replaced Cuadrado, Kostic replaced Di Maria, and finally Moses Keane replaced Mireti, who was almost invisible after 15 minutes.
After the game resumed, Juventus' formation became a parallel 4-4-2 formation. McKennie came on the court to protect the wing and defend Kva with De Sciglio, while Kostic, the new Serbian player who had just joined from the last Europa League champion Frankfurt, served as a surprise soldier on the wing and attacked Celik's defense.
Juventus continued to make moves on the right side of Roma. As Kostic rushed forward with the cooperation of Moses Keane, Locatelli and Sandro, and Celik retreated further and further, Chen Xiaoliang used up his physical recovery card for this game.
Stamina recovery card 7→6
In this game, he played as a defensive midfielder and was responsible for the right half of the field. Normally, during offense, he would often attack from the right side.
Now Juventus is actually playing with the main players here.
Chen Xiaoliang, with full health and strength, is ready to let his opponents get to know himself again after a summer.
