Chapter 403 Challenger of the Overlord

Sampdoria, which led by two goals, played more easily, and this is their home court, so they played like a fish in water.

As for Juventus, they fell into anxiety.

At this time, they didn't care whether Gao Zheng would take advantage of the space in the back line. Anyway, they pressed forward when they had the opportunity, hoping to equalize the score early.

The balance has been completely broken.

If someone had just turned on the TV and didn't look at the score, but just watched the scene, they would definitely think that Juventus had the upper hand and took the lead in less than a minute.

But the actual situation is completely opposite to what he saw.

Sampdoria is united as one, even if it is suppressed and beaten by Juventus, it does not panic and behaves very calmly.

The forward line of Giovinco and Quagliarella failed again and again.

Conte then used the remaining two substitutions on offense, Tevez replaced Giovinco, and Llorente replaced Peluso.

Juventus changed to 343, constantly attacking Sampdoria's defense.

Their indiscriminate bombing really had some effect.

In the eighty-nine minutes of the game, Juventus finally blasted away Sampdoria's goal, pulled back a goal, and rewritten the score to 1:2, but they were still two away from eliminating Sampdoria. ball.

They would have to score another goal with the remaining time to send the game into overtime to have a chance of turning it around.

But this time Sampdoria did not give them any chance.

Four minutes into stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle to end the game.

"The game is over! Sampdoria defeated Juventus 2:1 at home! They reached the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia!"

Caresa's voice was drowned out by the huge cheers at the Marasi Stadium.

Reaching the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia is definitely a remarkable achievement for a team like Sampdoria.

Fighting on three fronts, and the current results of the three fronts are not bad!

Champions League broke into the last sixteen,

Ranked seventh in the league, far away from the relegation zone, the Coppa Italia has also reached the semi-finals...

The team's results made the Sampdoria fans ecstatic.

The Sampdoria players flooded the pitch to celebrate, while the Juventus players looked lost and miserable.

They didn't expect to be eliminated in the away game before the game.

Although they are not arrogant enough to think that the Coppa Italia is in their pocket, they don't think they will be eliminated by Sampdoria in the quarterfinals...

There was bewilderment in their eyes as they watched the Sampdoria players celebrate around them.

They forget that this team performed better than them in the Champions League.

At least they made it to the knockout round, and they can only participate in the Europa League in the second half of the season...

Of course, if you have to insist that Juventus still has a chance to win the Europa League in the Europa League, and Sampdoria can't win the Champions League anyway, then there is nothing to say...

But now at least Juventus has no hope of winning the Triple Crown.

"Of course Juventus is the hegemony of Italian football, but I am also very happy to see that in Italy, there are still teams that can shake the hegemony! If a league is strong and strong, other teams will have to bow their heads to the boss. Throw in the towel, that would be too boring... and more importantly it would make a league uncompetitive. I don't think it's a good thing for Juventus to dominate Serie A in a row... look at Juventus this season The performance in the Champions League, such a team has become the strongest in Serie A, it can only show that our league is declining..."

Caresa's remarks will definitely cause dissatisfaction among Juventus fans after the game. The team's elimination was enough to make them sad, but Caresa still sprinkled salt on their wounds... But Caresa I don't care, he is speaking the truth, but he thinks that the current situation in Serie A where Juventus dominates is not very good.

He is happy to see Sampdoria's sudden emergence.

But unfortunately, the sudden emergence of Sampdoria is difficult to maintain. With the departure of Gao Zheng and some other young players, this team will be beaten back to its original shape.

This is almost certain to happen.

It is impossible for Gao Zheng to stay in Sampdoria forever, and as the well-deserved backbone of this team, it is hard to say where this team will go after he leaves. Like Obonna, Kosticic, Berardi, Alberto Massi... These talented young people, what will Sampdoria use to keep them?

It is precisely because of this belief that Caresa cherishes the Sampdoria team in front of him.

They have challenged the traditional giants in Italy, and in European football, they are the only team that can defend the dignity of Italian football.

This team is so rare that it's hard to know what to look for when they're gone.

Now it's really a little less than a glance, let's do it and cherish it.

※※※

Sampdoria's elimination of Juventus was an upset, and the Italian media the next day were all reporting on it.

Most of the reported angles are on Juventus' side, criticizing Juventus' performance this season.

In addition to the fairly stable performance in the league, whether in the Champions League or the Italian Cup, Juventus has failed this season.

Such a performance is really unreasonable for a top giant like Juventus.

So the media is full of various criticisms of Juventus, as well as cynicism.

Not a lot of attention has been paid to Sampdoria.

On the one hand, it is because some media have enmity with Sampdoria and Gao Zheng. On the other hand, compared with Juventus, Sampdoria is still not topical enough.

But Totti's focus is curled up on Sampdoria's side.

In the dressing room in Rome, when other teammates were surprised or gloated at Juventus' failure, Totti thought of the conversation he had with Gao Zheng after losing to Sampdoria in the last round of the Coppa Italia .

——Because we want to win a championship.

——Yes, relatively speaking, this is the best one.

Maybe I will really see how this kid gradually turned the "crazy words" I said into reality.

After knocking out Juventus in the Coppa Italia quarter-finals, Sampdoria will face the winner of Napoli and Lazio in the semi-finals according to the results of the previous draw.

The first round of the semi-finals will be played on February 5th, and the second round will be on February 12th.

The first round of the UEFA Champions League quarter-final match between Sampdoria and Atletico Madrid was on the night of February 19th.

There was an interval of seven days in between, so it did not constitute any impact.

After playing the Coppa Italia match against Juventus, Sampdoria adopted a rotation in the next league game against Bologna, rotating most of the main players.

In the end, Sampdoria and Bologna had a draw and did not lose. The result was not bad.

Three days later, Sampdoria's opponents in the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia were revealed.

Naples defeated Lazio 1-0 at home and advanced to the semi-finals. They will become Sampdoria's opponents in the semi-finals.
