Chapter 240 Change and Unchanging

"At the end of the first half, with Griezmann\'s goal in the 40th minute of the first half, Luton temporarily took the lead with a score of one to zero, and now enters the intermission! After 15 minutes, the game will be Continue to start at the Torino Olympic Stadium!!!"

Letkinson\'s voice came from the TV.

Fans all over Luton also took the time to fill their glasses with beer.

"On the whole, the first half of the game was actually beyond most people\'s expectations. Before the game, many media predicted that Gao Bo would abandon this game. After all, the investment in the Europa League is important for the Luton League. The impact of Luton is still very large. Now they are ranked second in the league after Charlton. However, because they have to take into account the Europa League, Luton has already paid a lot of money in the league. A few points lost after the Europa League or between two Europa League matches! The European competition is indeed quite stressful for a small team like Luton!"

"But for this game alone, Luton\'s performance is good. Gao Bo is very good at exploiting opponents\' weaknesses. Juventus\'s weakness is nothing more than that they are not used to fast-paced games. Old players like Cannavaro When the pace is too fast, their speed and stamina can’t keep up with such consumption. The advantage of Luton is that they are a very young team and they are also very good at pulling the pace very fast. !" Redknapp added.

Players from both sides entered the player channel one after another. Juventus’s players looked dignified, while Luton’s players were much more relaxed. It can be seen from the looks of both sides that the two teams had their own differences in the first half. How does it perform.

"Unexpectedly, Luton seems to be planning to continue to play in the Europa League!"

An English reporter sighed in the media booth, and his words aroused discussion from the English reporter.

"Gao Bo looks quite adventurous!"

"Is he not afraid of the Europa League dragging down the league?"

"Speaking of which, to be able to push Juventus like this on the road, where is Luton\'s strength?"

"Ha, let me say this is because the strength of Serie A has dropped too severely"

"The glory of the Italians has long passed, and now the Premier League is the first league!"

"It was a pity last season, three Premier League teams entered the Champions League semi-finals, and Barcelona won the Champions League!"

"Huh, Catalans are lucky"

Last season the three Premier League teams entered the Champions League semi-finals, Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, and Lu Bu in the three Premier League games, but Barcelona won the final. The Englishman must be quite unconvinced.

It is no longer the era of the Serie A Little World Cup. With the economic downturn in Italy, especially after the financial crisis, the Serie A has gradually declined. The world\'s first league that year is now behind the Premier League and La Liga in many aspects.

The faces of Italian media reporters are quite embarrassed.

The English people have a very loud voice, and the Italian reporters also heard what the British people are saying.

They want to refute, but they can\'t give up any confidence, after all, it is now the Serie A giants lagging behind England\'s third-level small team.

So they can only rely on Juventus\'s performance in the second half.

"Pretty! Come on, Luton!! Eliminate Juventus!!!"

"Kill Juventus!! Inter Milan fans stay!!!"

"Luton advances! Gobo, come on!!"

"Go into the second half again and enter the quarterfinals steadily!!!"

In domestic online forums, fans took advantage of the halftime break.

Serie A is still very basic in China, and veteran giants Juventus also have a considerable fan base in China.

But on the Internet, the fans support Luton on one side.

This is because most Juventus fans have an older age structure, and most of them like to watch football on the Internet. With the rise of the Premier League in recent years, La Liga’s Galacticos and Barcelona have gathered stars. These teams are more attractive than Serie A, which lacks fresh stars, to young people.

Juventus fans have a small amount of voice on the Internet, and most Chinese fans who stay up late to watch football come to support Gao Bo-after all, he is his compatriot, and Gao Bo can lead the third-level league team to Europe. The top 16 of the League Cup, in the eyes of many fans, this is a great thing for Chinese football. In addition, most people like to watch this kind of counterattack drama.

The national sentiment, coupled with the dramatic elements of Luton\'s team itself, has attracted the attention of a large number of fans.

The Torino Olympic Stadium gradually became quieter after the whistle was sounded at the end of the first half. Some fans in the stands took advantage of the intermission to solve their physiological problems, and some sat in the stands to take a rest. After all, the fans were a little tired after shouting at halftime.

In the player channel, all the players have entered the locker room, and Buffon and Cannavaro stood at the door of the home team\'s locker room.

"You are still the best central defender in the world, Fabio"

Buffon patted Cannavaro on the shoulder, they are old teammates, whether in Parma, or in the Italian national team, and now in Juventus.

Cannavaro laughed.

"Jian, you don\'t have to comfort me!" Cannavaro reached out and held the door handle of the locker room.

"I\'m not a top central defender for a long time." Cannavaro opened the door. "Have you ever seen a top defender with such slow speed and response?"

Buffon stared at Cannavaro as he pushed the door into the dressing room.

Age is cruel to professional players. No matter how good a player they were before, they will always be defeated in the face of age.

The thirty-two-year-old Buffon seemed to see his future.

I don\'t know who will take this pair of gloves from him?

Buffon thought for a while, then smiled.

No matter who it is, if you want to grab his place, just show off your strength!

There are also some Italian media, especially those in the South and Milan, who are "worried" about who will succeed Buffon.

I was only thirty-two years old!

Just show up if you want to take over!

The position is grabbed, not let out!

Cannavaro pushed in and the Juventus players looked up and looked at the veteran.

Cannavaro patted his chest, "It is my responsibility to lose the ball in the first half!!"

Cannavaro was very frank about this, he knew that it was because he was blown up on this point, which caused the team to be passive at every step, and even the goal he lost passed through his own defense zone!

In fact, Cannavaro’s state has declined since his last two periods at Real Madrid. Last season’s Cannavaro’s fatigue was evident. He was facing Rio Messi and Fernando Torres. Obviously incapable of being a type of player. While Real Madrid suffered a disastrous defeat in their home games against Barcelona and away against Liverpool, the defense led by Fabio Cannavaro became a target of public criticism.

Cannavaro today has long lost his courage.

If Messi and Torres are the best strikers on the planet right now, the old Cannavaro was forgiven for being bullied when facing them, but now he is just a forward of a third-level team. Luton\'s three strikers all made Cannavaro quite embarrassed!

This result made Cannavaro extremely painful and suffering with a strong self-esteem.

Maybe it\'s time to leave!

Cannavaro made up his mind, after the end of this season, he will retire!

Gao Bo didn\'t know, because Luton\'s three unknown men had repeatedly humiliated Cannavaro, so that the former Italian captain made an early decision to retire.

"The responsibility is not entirely on Fabio!" Ferrara walked in.

"It is my responsibility to fall behind in the first half of the game. It is not what we are good at at all to control the ball on offense. The back line loses protection and the defender directly faces the strike of the forward, which leads to the loss of the ball!" Ferrara said.

"In the second half ~www.novelhall.com~Don\'t press down on the three midfielders! We play the way we are good at it!" Ferrara pointed to the tactical board.

"In the second half of the game, two full-backs joined the attack! Fabio!!"

Ferrara looked at another Fabio, Fabio Grosso!

Grosso looked up.

"You have to go up and assist more in the second half, you haven\'t forgotten how to cross?!"

"Of course not, sir!"

Although Grosso rarely presses to attack now, this does not mean that Grosso has lost his offensive ability. When necessary, Grosso can still dedicate his offensive ability!

"We started offensive from the side in the second half!!" Ferrara stood up by the table and made a decision.

The players looked solemn, and only after they settled down did the Juventus players really pay attention to this opponent.

In the face of Ferrara\'s adjustment, they have nothing to say.

Strengthen the defense of the center and launch an offensive from the side. On the one hand to contain Luton’s counterattack threat, on the other hand Juventus also needs to launch an offensive!

In the other locker room, Gao Bo was very satisfied with the team\'s performance in the first half. He loudly praised the players\' performance in the first half.

Especially the three attackers in the frontcourt. Their tacit offense in the first half made Gao Bo very satisfied. This kind of tacit cooperation can not only appear in the counterattack, even in the offensive battle, continuous and rapid passes. The power is equally great.

"We need to pay attention to Juventus\'s counterattack in the second half. The defense in the center should be especially dense!" Gao Bo said.

He did not know the adjustment Ferrara made, so he did not ask the team to make changes.

The winning team generally does not actively seek change.

The one-to-zero lead gives Luton more freedom of tactical choice.
