I don’t know if Lazio is Juventus’ natural enemy, but what is certain is that Juventus almost swept the entire Serie A this season, but only lost to Lazio.
Lazio can only lag behind Juventus in Serie A because they are not as stable as Juventus against other Serie A opponents. But when they meet Juventus, they are the most effective.
.
Prandelli also saw it, Lazio was particularly good at beating Juventus.
Throughout the first half, Juventus' performance was abnormal.
At first they were eager for success, but later they became timid. This is not a good state.
He wanted to calm down the players, but there was no good way.
His yelling from the sidelines had no effect at all.
The head coach's on-the-spot command is mainly reflected in substitutions and adjustments during halftime, and it is definitely not about yelling on the sidelines.
Prandelli can only wait painfully for the end of the first half and hope not to concede any more goals before the end of the first half.
It's hard to play a game when you're behind by one goal, and it's even harder to play when you're behind by two goals...
With Juventus stagnating like this, Prandelli feels that this is the best choice out of helplessness.
At least it can prevent Lazio from attacking and conceding another goal.
Therefore, he did not make any adjustments or instructions regarding the current situation of the team.
Let’s just do this for now…
※※※
If Juventus doesn't come up, Lazio really can't come up either.
The two sides were in a stalemate.
Lazio's players didn't feel at all that they were delaying the game, nor did they feel there was anything embarrassing about it.
They passed the ball back and forth, just like they did in the locker room.
Time passed by minute by second, and the first half was over.
Lazio temporarily leads Juventus by one goal.
※※※
During the halftime break, Prandelli tried his best to calm down the players.
From the moment he entered the locker room, he could clearly feel the anger of the Juventus players - their anger could almost materialize...
When Lazio kept passing the ball from the back, Juventus' players were helpless, but they felt they were humiliated by the Lazio players.
They wanted to double this humiliation in the second half!
Prandelli wanted them to calm down, because being angry alone would not solve the problem.
The angrier you are when facing Lazio, the worse you will lose.
This must be a very painful transition process, and Prandelli may have to bear the surprised looks of the Juventus players. Because 45 minutes ago, it was Prandelli who asked them to beat Lazio head-on in the game.
It aroused their fighting spirit.
Now he wants them to turn off the flames, how can he convince them?
※※※
It's Prandelli's problem convincing Juventus' players.
In the Lazio dressing room, Chang Sheng praised his players.
The atmosphere is not warm, nor passionate, nor sensational.
Chang Winning requires the players to continue playing like this in the second half.
"...If they don't come up, we'll pass it back and forth. If they come up...you know what to do, right?"
The players' laughter rang out in the locker room.
Yes, they know too much.
In the first half, they could clearly feel the anger of Juventus, but there was nothing they could do.
This feeling is simply great.
※※※
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again, but Juventus' performance was much more normal than in the first half.
However, Lazio still passed the ball back and forth in the backcourt, but it just couldn't come up.
Facing such a shameless opponent, Juventus seemed a little helpless even after returning to normal.
The key is that they have already conceded a goal. If the score is still tied at this time, it will be okay.
Let Lazio take the lead, and they will do all kinds of unscrupulous and bottom-breaking things.
Having been his opponent for more than ten years, Prandelli knows this very well.
Because Chang Sheng is such a shameless and bottomless person!
The second half of this game was very boring, with Lazio showing little ambition and Juventus being very cautious.
In the end, Prandelli simply waved his hand and went completely defensive.
This game has lost its meaning.
In the end, Lazio defeated Juventus 1:0 after a very boring second half.
This score is not a big advantage, it is much weaker than the first score of 50.
But the important thing is that they won and the score is not important.
Because it was Juventus who were clamoring for revenge before the game.
And now?
Their revenge was not fulfilled, and new hatreds were added.
The pregame outrage seemed like a joke.
※※※
After the game, Prandelli refused to shake hands with Chang Sheng.
Then in the post-game press conference he lashed out at Chang Sheng for his series of little moves.
"Our players waited in the cold wind for more than ten minutes before the game started! For this reason, our players were almost unconscious from the cold. How can they be in good condition! This is obviously Chang's conspiracy——
He always likes to finish these things! Also when they take the lead, they start passing the ball in the backcourt, which I think is also a very unsportsmanlike way of playing!"
Chang Sheng later responded to Prandelli's criticism.
"Sportsmanship? I made reasonable use of game tactics. Is there anything to criticize? Do I have to send the whole team up, and then Juventus intercepted the ball and counterattacked several goals before it can be regarded as sportsmanship?
Mentally? I think Mr. Prandelli is seriously ill, and he should see a psychiatrist. If he can't find a good psychiatrist, we have the best psychiatrist in Serie A at Lazio, and I can lend him one for free.
Chang Sheng said sarcastically.
If Prandelli heard this, he would probably be very angry.
But this is the winning style...
A more winning style is yet to come.
"When Pace made the Dutch wait in the stadium for several minutes before arriving late, everyone said it was a victory of strategy. I don't think it is a big deal. Yes, I admit, I deliberately let the team do this.
The purpose was to calm down the Juventus players who were so excited that their brains were burned out - I was afraid that they would kick my player's knee at the beginning of the game. And the final result looked pretty good."
Having said this, Chang Sheng paused for a moment, then leaned back in his chair very relaxedly, crossed his arms and looked at the reporters below, especially those who supported Juventus.
Then he slowed down and said: "If what I did made many people feel uncomfortable, I deeply apologize for it... If you have the ability, you can win it back!"
※※※
Chang Sheng's last words quickly became the focus of media reports and quickly spread on the Internet.
A reporter directly updated the live press conference in his personal community. He said: "Chang once again showed his unruly side in front of us. After openly provoking Juventus, he led Lazio to defeat Juventus.
I think he does have crazy capital..."
"Come on, come on! We have been waiting for ten minutes just for his words! He is so handsome! Chang once again provoked Juventus at the post-match press conference! What I did made many people feel uncomfortable
Yes, I'm deeply sorry for this... If you have the ability, you can win it back! #超碰的故事!"
"Chang is actually right. If you have any dissatisfaction, win it back on the court. No matter how much war of words you have off the court, it is meaningless. Prandelli's complaint seems a bit petty and will give people the impression that Juventus is losing.
It’s a shameful feeling…”
Now that the Internet world is so developed, people no longer need to wait for the next day's newspaper to be published to know what happened.
News in today's era presents a fragmented image. Many news are finished in one sentence or a short paragraph. Through many such fragments, a complete news report is finally pieced together.
The information sent by reporters on the front line through the Internet often attracts more attention and will be sought after by many people in the online world.
This is now the mainstream reporting method.
Orthodox media, such as print media, rely more on strong professional analysis and commentary articles to compete with the Internet.
※※※
Some people admire Chang Sheng, and naturally some people support Juventus.
"I think Chang is extremely arrogant. Is there anything wrong with Prandelli's accusation? Lazio has the ability to defeat Juventus in an upright and upright manner on the court. Every time, they use these despicable means. They are all unfair.
How can he be so embarrassed to celebrate such a victory?"
"I think UEFA should punish Lazio because they played passively. Yes, they played passively for most of the game. They were back and forth in the midfield and backcourt. This is really a step backwards in football!"
"I feel sad that a person like Chang can become the most successful coach in today's football by relying on such dirty methods. This shows that modern football has fallen into a very vulgar situation! Such a person can succeed because of this
The tragedy of the times!”
Chang Sheng turned a deaf ear to such criticism, and they couldn't hurt him even a hair.
There are still two games against Juventus, and preparation is more important than arguing with the media.
He managed to irritate Juventus in the first game and capitalize on their anger to win.
Then Juventus will definitely take precautions. They are not fools. They will be defeated by the same move in such a short period of time...
Normally Juventus is very scary, which can be seen from their performance this season.
But... Chang Sheng is confident.
Because Lazio, who performs normally, is just as scary. This can also be seen from this season's Champions League.
Didn't someone say that they had the ability to prevent Lazio from playing these tricks and defeat Juventus in an upright manner?
OK, as you wish!
When the time comes, don’t say goodbye to Ye Gong and the dragon!
