Caressa is right, you can't judge whether Lazio gave up this game based on their starting lineup.
For ordinary teams, this trick is applicable. Generally, teams will have two lineups, one is the strongest main lineup, and the other is the weaker substitute lineup.
Almost all teams have distinct main lineups and substitute lineups. Many people are thinking about going to the main lineup.
This is competition within the team.
But there is no such thing at Lazio.
Lazio implements a very thorough rotation, and since the more than 20 players in the first team are relatively close in strength, it is difficult to say who can play the main role and who can play as a substitute.
Chang Sheng’s lineup is not divided into strong and weak players. Some players who everyone thinks are very strong are not in this lineup, but other players who are also recognized as very strong are still there.
Therefore, we cannot simply judge and analyze whether Lazio takes this game seriously from the lineup.
For example, this game against Juventus.
Balzaretti and Azpilicueta did not start, and were replaced by Coentrao and Faraoni. In the midfield, Ballack and Modric also did not start, replaced by Meireles and El
Nanes and center Rocchi replaced Klose.
Five people have been rotated, but in the remaining positions Lazio still has David Silva, Gotze and Jose Passarella, Chiellini, and Ledesma, goalkeeper Handano
Veach also did not rotate.
Would anyone say that such a lineup is weak when used against Juventus?
Whether Lazio really gave up on this game depends on their performance in the game...
As a result, as soon as the game started, Lazio launched a fierce attack on Juventus' goal.
This is their home court, so there is certainly no reason to shrink their defense.
And Lazio's pace in attack is very fast.
This rhythm allows everyone to see at a glance - Lazio has absolutely no intention of giving up this game!
"Lazio plans to compete with Juventus in the league! Perhaps in their eyes, winning the league is more important than defending the Champions League title!" a commentator said.
"Chang must be crazy. Who is more important, the Champions League or the league? Anyone with a discerning eye can see it at a glance. I don't know why there is any hesitation and controversy..."
"Do you want to fight Juventus with all your strength and then lose to Manchester United in an away game?"
Everyone is incomprehensible to Lazio's arrangement.
"Of course, it is also possible. Chang is confident that his team can not only solve Juventus in the league, but also Manchester United in the Champions League semi-finals. But... is this possible? You must know that these two teams can both
It’s not a hard nut to crack... They all have the belief and reason to win. If they want to win both, it’s very likely that they won’t win either.”
This commentator's analysis is correct. To win, you must win both games.
However, he thinks that Lazio may be in vain, but that may not be the case...
※※※
Juventus started the game with the belief that they would fight Lazio to the death. During the game, their actions were quite rude and they made flying tackles many times, which attracted boos from the Lazio fans in the stands.
The referee also had to blow the whistle frequently to pause the game and warn Juventus players.
However, fifteen minutes of the game have passed and no Juventus player has received a yellow card for a foul.
Generally speaking, the referee today was gentle.
Of course, he himself is a gentle referee, and his performance rate in Serie A law enforcement is very low.
If he had been victorious in the past, he would have struggled with this during and after the game, and would have clung to it and made a fuss about it.
But now, when the referee did not issue a yellow card, Chang Sheng sat on the coach's chair and did not react at all.
It looked as if this person had nothing to do with him.
This is of course not because this matter has nothing to do with him, but because Chang Sheng knows that after defeating Juventus, this kind of thing is no longer a matter.
He is too lazy to quarrel with the opponent. As long as he can defeat Juventus, he is the winner. The winner does not need to care about the loser's mood.
Juventus acted harshly, thinking that they could contain Lazio's offense.
That's so naive!
Chang Sheng fully took this into consideration before the game, so the whole team made corresponding countermeasures.
Naturally, he would not let his players be overturned at will by the opponent.
To deal with Juventus' fouls, we need to keep the football at our feet as little as possible.
When the football is not under their feet, Juventus's fouls are meaningless, and fouls against players without the ball are very serious, so they cannot be solved with a verbal warning.
I believe Juventus players don’t dare to do this and will try their best to avoid it.
And if the upper hand does not result in a steal or a foul, it will instead bring danger to its own defense. Therefore, when Juventus finds that their upper hand speed cannot keep up with Lazio's passing speed, they may take action.
.
Therefore, as long as the speed increases, Juventus' foul tactics will lose their effect.
The so-called martial arts in the world are all about speed. As long as you are fast, you are almost invincible.
From the beginning of the game, Lazio was speeding up and accelerating.
Juventus players did use foul tactics to block Lazio's advance at the beginning.
But they soon discovered that they had a problem.
※※※
When the football was passed to Ledesma, he did not stop the ball or turn around, but directly knocked the football back to Meireles.
Seeing the football being passed around by Ledesma, Juventus player Marchisio, who had originally planned to come up to press him, immediately changed his mind and did not step forward, but retreated to his position.
What he is afraid of is that if he comes up to press, but fails to grab the football, instead creating a space behind him, Lazio will catch it... You must know that Lazio's ability to seize opportunities is quite strong.
Their head coach Del Neri repeatedly emphasized to them before this game that Lazio would never be given the opportunity to do this.
If you want to beat Lazio, you must first ensure not to concede the ball first in the game.
Once the ball is lost first, everything is over.
If we don't concede a goal, even if we don't score a goal, this game can still be a draw.
Once you lose the ball, you lose!
Anyway, other teammates are responsible for the ball passed back by Lazio.
When he saw the football being passed towards Meireles, sure enough, another Juventus player rushed forward, intending to steal the ball or interfere with Meireles.
Judging from his speed, he can almost reach Meireles' side with the football, so as long as Meireles stops the ball or makes a slight adjustment, he will be stuck by the opponent. At that time, whether he wants to get away or
Passing the ball will become difficult.
So Meireles cannot stop the ball.
Meireles didn't stop the ball, he still kicked the ball!
※※※
Just like this, Lazio played one ball after another.
The football was spinning rapidly at their feet.
As for Juventus, they did not give up their tactical strategies because of this. They still pressed Lazio's players.
Whenever possible, they never give up.
In fact, Del Neri somewhat guessed that Lazio would do this.
Because they have used one move to deal with other teams that pressed them before.
Since everyone is studying Lazio now, it is natural to study it thoroughly. This past experience has been ruined by everyone.
Delneri could not have known this.
He also asked Juventus to press like this because such a press could force Lazio to continue this kind of quick pass.
He analyzed Lazio's game videos and found that the success rate of Lazio's quick kick delivery was not high.
After all, it is too difficult to do so.
As long as you can always put pressure on Lazio, then Lazio will make mistakes in this continuous long-term fast pass.
Once a mistake occurs, it will be caught by Juventus.
Then the opportunity for Juventus presented itself!
Delneri did think well. Lazio's players could not maintain this rapid one-kick passing rhythm for a long time.
So they also made a lot of mistakes during the game.
And these mistakes were indeed taken advantage of by Juventus.
There were also several threats to the goal guarded by Handanovic.
But Lazio didn't try to slow down the pace.
With Juventus's pressing method, the chance of dying is higher if you slow down the pace.
Therefore, Chang Sheng would rather endure such mistakes and keep his speed at a high state.
※※※
One side presses the defense, but it is not guaranteed to stop Lazio's attack.
The other team's continuous passes were pleasing to the eye, but there were also many mistakes, which increased the risk for the goal.
In this game, the two sides were tit for tat, attacking and defending each other, and the fight was very fierce.
As a neutral fan, this game was very enjoyable to watch.
Because the game is not one-sided, there are opportunities for both sides.
Moreover, the pace of the game is very fast, both Lazio and Juventus are fast.
Not to mention Lazio's quick pass, Juventus chose a quick counterattack in their offense. As long as they could intercept Lazio's ball, they would immediately launch a quick counterattack.
Both sides go back and forth, and the transition between offense and defense is very fast.
So neutral fans will enjoy watching it.
But this is not a good thing for Lazio fans.
Originally, Lazio had a huge advantage in the league, and they rarely encountered such a close match.
So Lazio fans have adapted to Lazio pressing the opponent and winning the game easily.
Now such a game makes them feel the "tension" that they have not seen for a long time, and they don't like this feeling at all.
But they also know that the current situation is not very favorable for Lazio, so it is normal for such a situation to occur.
Juventus seems to be well-prepared and aggressive, and their physical fitness seems to be very good, with no signs of exhaustion at all...
Many Lazio fans frowned in the stands.
They are worried about Lazio.
Can Lazio break through the blockade formed by Juventus and Manchester United this time? (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
