Chapter 79 Who is more experienced?

After Gao Zheng's goal, Juventus tried to counterattack, but in front of Atletico Madrid's close bunt tactics, they played very uncomfortable, and they were still unable to stop their more effective offensive. The way of playing aroused anger and lost patience.

It's not like they have no chance at all. The best chance to tie the score came in the 80th minute. Garcia made a tackle from the front point to make a clearance, but the football rolled out of the baseline against the near post.

Almost an own goal!

The Atlético de Madrid fans in the stands were quite frightened—Gao Zheng managed to help the team take the lead, and they couldn't bear it if they gave up the victory because of an own goal in the end.

Raul Garcia was also terrified after getting up.

But this is the closest Juventus has come to scoring.

Most of the time, they couldn't even threaten Atletico Madrid's goal and were completely restrained by Atletico Madrid's tactics.

As the end of the game approached, the Juventus players became more and more impatient. In the 85th minute, Atletico Madrid full-back Ansaldi protected the ball in the corner flag area, and Juventus player Lichtsteiner fouled , received a yellow card.

Seeing that the Juventus players were getting bigger and bigger, Simeone also quickly made adjustments. He replaced Gao Zheng, who scored the only goal for the team, with Mario Suarez.

Now that there is not much time left before the end of the game, replacing Gao Zheng will not have much impact.

When Gao Zheng left the field, all Atletico Madrid fans stood up and applauded and cheered for him.

He Ping was very emotional when he saw this scene: "In a foreign country, what should I do if I want to win the respect of others? Express politeness, humility and friendliness to them? These are all fine, but in the final analysis, we still have to use our personal strength to speak. Nothing. There is no doubt that Gao Zheng has conquered this stadium and won the love of these fans. This kind of respect is won by him one ball at a time!"

Caresa was a little emotional: "I think back then, when he was at the Marasi Stadium, it was like this every time. This Chinese guy who loves to laugh can always win the love of the fans as quickly as possible, no matter where he goes. Where, I think this is his 'super power' too?"

Borata in front of the TV nodded vigorously: "Yes, superpowers! He is a superhero!"

Jose Maria said: "Gao was replaced by Simeone, listen to the cheers and applause! I said before that this Chinese player may become the pride of Calderon in the future. But I was wrong , I think he is becoming the pride of Calderon!"

In the stands, Daniel Herrera was surrounded by fellow fans who were applauding and cheering for Gao Zheng. He turned to look at them, did not speak, and did not give a standing ovation.

He is expressing his protest in this way. It's just that there are fewer and fewer resisters like him in the stands of this stadium, so few that they are almost ignored.

His companions stopped persuading him to support Gao Zheng and applauded Gao Zheng, because they no longer cared about his opinion.

Whether Gao Zheng is worthy of their support and love, Daniel's words have no influence.

After Gao Zheng left the field, judging from the development of the game, Simeone was right to replace Gao Zheng.

Juventus center Morata, who had just been replaced, kicked Arda Turan down during the game and was shown a yellow card. Juventus received two yellow cards in just two minutes.

In stoppage time, Pogba fouled Miranda and was also given a yellow card.

At the last moment, Juventus forward Giovinco also received a yellow card for deliberate handball.

In general, the final stage of the game was basically spent in crazy fouls and cards by Juventus players. Oh, and there was a storm of boos from the Atlético Madrid fans - all boos, of course, for a foul Juventus.

Despite the desperate fouls by the Juventus players, they were unable to equalize.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, Jose Maria sneered: "Congratulations to Juventus, for the first defeat of the season! But this defeat should have been without suspense..."

He ridiculed Blüsch for missing Juventus' two handballs in the penalty area during the game.

Caresa did not hide that the two handballs were not judged: "It must be said that this defeat is not too unexpected for Juventus. Judging from this game, they almost The game was suppressed by Atletico Madrid, and there was no good chance-the fact that there was no shot on goal in the whole game is proof. And if it weren't for the referee's high hand, the score of this game may not be just 0. :1... Buffon played very well, but he met Gao who played better. Unexpectedly, after leaving Sampdoria, the competition between Buffon and Gao continued..."

"I want to wait until tomorrow. The media will be full of discussions about this game, and Gao Zheng will definitely become the focus. But this is no longer something worthy of discussion and attention. We are used to Gao Zheng playing After every game, he was on the headlines of the major European media, and was hotly discussed on the Internet. I am used to his scoring videos being played repeatedly, and he is used to being the most dazzling star... And this I think this kind of 'habit' is a sign of our increased confidence, we won't worry that Gao Zheng is just a flash in the pan, and we won't worry that Gao Zheng will be scolded if he doesn't perform well..." He Ping said.

Xu Yang added from the side: "And this kind of 'habit' was something that I didn't even dare to think about three years ago!"

"Yes. Now this scene really looks like something out of a science fiction novel."

The two looked at each other and laughed.

After the game, Juventus coach Allegri believed at the press conference that the reason why the team lost was because of Atletico Madrid's close-knit and fast-playing foul tactics, which made his players very uncomfortable and unable to perform normally.

"...everyone told us that Atlético Madrid is a team that is good at doing this, that their games are always full of controversy. I didn't understand what was going on before, but today I have experienced it firsthand. I Think they're right. They played rough, they've had experience with it, they know how to deal with referees..."

And Simeone, who appeared later, laughed after hearing the words of Allegri relayed by the reporters: "I don't know what qualifications Juventus has to say this. I only know the foul in this game Than us 21, Juventus 28, more than us. Uncle Zhang, we got two yellow cards, Juventus got six, more than us. And they still have two restricted areas Inside handball, still more than us. I think Juventus are obviously more experienced than us in terms of what Allegri was talking about."

The game is over, but the smell of gunpowder between the two teams is still strong...
