Chapter 279 Never give up
Chapter 279 Never give up
Juventus, who was leading by a big score, firmly controlled the situation, but in the 41st minute, Udinese still lost the fourth goal of the game.
Dybala distributed the ball from the center, Alex Sandro cut in from the left, and curled the ball 15 meters in front of the goal into the far corner, rewriting the score to 0:4.
Dybala has participated in 18 goals in Serie A this season, accounting for 49% of Juventus' total goals.
During the halftime break, Guidolin intentionally replaced Bruno. After all, judging from the current situation, Udinese has no chance of a comeback today. It is better to replace Bruno to save energy for the next game.
After all, Serie A has only played 20 rounds, with almost half of the schedule left, and Udinese needs to prepare for a long-term plan.
What's more, even if Udinese loses the game today, they are still 9 points ahead of Juventus.
However, Bruno rejected Guidolin's suggestion.
………………
When Hedi came over with a tackle, Bruno was already alert. He directly picked up the football and then jumped up, just in time to avoid the flying tackle. After landing, Bruno staggered slightly, but quickly stabilized his center of gravity and quickly chased the football.
"Kedira! The second one!"
Bruno has passed Lichtsteiner, and now he faces three other defenders and a midfielder from Juventus. Is he going to single-handedly challenge the entire Juventus defense?
Bruno's tendency to dribble the ball shows that he wants to cut inside and dribble the ball into the penalty area.
The first person to encounter Bruno was Juventus midfielder Khedira who was chasing after him.
Viewed from the air, three blue figures surrounded the black and white figures in three directions.
By the time Lichtsteiner successfully turned around to look, Bruno was already four or five meters ahead of him. If he tried to catch up at this time, it would be impossible for him to catch up.
When the game reached the 77th minute, Juventus was attacking with the ball on the court.
And what about Juventus' other defensive players? They were all attracted by the movements of Di Natale, Immobile and Itura.
Sometimes, there is really no way to fight and you can only keep running.
If the ball tackled a player, Bruno would have to stay in bed for at least a month or two.
This made other Juventus defensive players anxious. They didn't care about Udinese players such as Di Natale and Immobile, and pounced on Bruno.
"An exciting scene has appeared, Bruno! The new Mr. Golden Ball now faces the entire Juventus defense!"
Bruno looked up and could see Juventus' goal directly, with no obstruction in front of him.
Such a scene makes people forget to even breathe!
And if this counterattack succeeds, then Juventus will beat Udinese 5:0.
Dybala got the ball in the frontcourt, and Badu and Ed Nelson immediately rushed up from two different directions to defend Dybala.
From the beginning of the second half, the Bianconeri have deliberately slowed down the pace. Because they will play in the quarter-finals of the Italian Cup next week, and their opponent is Lazio, who is not a weakling.
So this picture appeared on the court: Bruno was running from the wing to the center with the ball, and Juventus players surrounded him from several directions; Rugani went to cover the wing to prevent Bruno Suddenly, Bonucci stood ready in the middle, waiting for interception; Khedira, who was chasing after him, rushed forward first; Caceres deployed his defense at the top of the arc; while Marchisio, who desperately returned to defense, returned to In the penalty area, he went to mark Di Natale.
Until Lichtsteiner was broken through, Juventus still preferred to think that Udinese's tactics were crosses from the wing.
Bruno caught the ball, moved the football forward, and then started to accelerate.
This was the right choice, a tactical foul to prevent the opponent from a threatening counterattack: Lichtsteiner knew that there was an open space behind him, and it would be dangerous if this kid passed by.
………………
However, Lichtsteiner underestimated Bruno's speed and almost just missed him. When he reached out to grab him, he didn't even touch a hair on the opponent's body.
Lichtsteiner stepped forward to meet him. His wishful thinking is that if he can steal the ball from Bruno's feet, he can take advantage of the situation and hit Udinese's first counterattack.
Seeing that the two sides are about to encounter a battle.
He felt like he was back at the Boavista youth training camp. He felt like a headless fly, running around on the court, rushing everywhere, and waiting for opportunities.
"Be careful of their counterattack!" Allegri stood up and walked to the sidelines and shouted.
Then, before the two people were about to come into contact, Bruno poked the football, and he twisted his waist and accelerated from the other side.
As his first game after winning the Ballon d'Or, this game can be called his personal celebration. If it ends like this, he will definitely become a laughing stock.
He deeply realized the gap in strength between the two sides.
In particular, a group of Udinese direct descendants led by Di Natale, Badu and Erto who came on as a substitute in the second half began to cooperate with Bruno and pressed Juventus at the same time, launching a counterattack as soon as they had the opportunity. .
Caceres is the main left back of the South American powerhouse Uruguay, but in the current Juventus team, he can only be a substitute. Every position in Juventus is filled with international players from major football powers.
After getting rid of Khedira, Bruno caught up with the football and drove the ball directly into the penalty area.
………………
………………
"Bruno! Be careful!" the local commentator in Udine exclaimed.
With Immobile and Di Natale, two masters of grabbing points, on the court, this is the best beacon to attract attention.
The black and white figure was very fast, as fast as lightning.
Bruno knows that there is no team in the world that cannot lose, but he really doesn't want the team to lose like this.
Juventus is pressing forward, and if the ball is intercepted at this time, it is a great opportunity to counterattack.
This is also a deterrent to the opponent: either you dodge and the ball stays; or you stay and then limp off the field, or even be carried off on a stretcher.
Loud boos erupted from the stands.
"What a beast! After running for more than 70 minutes, he can still run so fast!" Lichtsteiner was shocked.
"Bruno! Beautiful pass! Beautiful! Beautiful! Beautiful!" the commentator of the local TV station in Udine shouted excitedly.
Lichtsteiner was broken through, and now Bruno was facing a large open space.
"Beautiful! Bruno! Beautiful!"
Everyone saw that when Bruno caught up with the football, his legs seemed to be equipped with small motors and he was even faster.
Lichtsteiner was stunned for a moment, but as a defender, his subconscious reaction was correct. He immediately stretched out his hand to grab Bruno.
This is the sound of war drums.
Today, even if he loses, even if Udinese is beaten into a dog, he must persist until the end of the game.
The other Juventus defensive players are some distance away from Bruno. They are now chasing desperately and trying to encircle him, but with the speed Bruno showed just now, by the time they get close to Bruno, he can already enter the penalty area.
Badu immediately passed the football and he went directly to Bruno.
Badu does not have very good passing ability, so his pass is sent directly to Bruno's feet instead of sending it ahead of time so that Bruno can take advantage of his speed.
Although the results of 4:0 and 5:0 are the same, Juventus can only score 3 points, but being able to defeat Udinese with a larger score will still cause a greater blow to Udinese!
This is a must-have lesson for a fierce midfielder, who dares to hit hard at critical moments!
At the same time, Di Natale and Immobile were both plugging in at high speed.
With victory already guaranteed, they did not need to continue to fight Udinese. Therefore, Allegri quickly replaced Chiellini with Cáceres, changing from 352 to 442 to strengthen the defensive strength. .
The exclamations in the stands instantly turned into cheers.
Lichtsteiner was still very happy at this time. The reason why he was happy was that he had suppressed his inner desire to assist and did not pounce too hard. Otherwise, the right side of Juventus where he is now is already an open space.
Dybala passed the football before the circle was closed, but the ball was intercepted by Badu, who had predicted it in advance.
But even though Juventus was almost certain to win, Bruno still didn't give up. He ran vigorously in the frontcourt, kept going up and down, and worked hard for every opportunity.
While Guidolin applauded, he also let out a long sigh of relief. If Bruno had been injured by Khedira just now, he would have wanted to kill someone.
Just when Lichtsteiner thought he could steal the ball and help Juventus launch another counterattack, Lichtsteiner was stunned, because just when he pounced on Bruno, instead of slowing down, he accelerated .
I would rather die standing than live on my knees!
………………
As Juventus' midfield defensive barrier, Khedira has his own fierceness. Facing Bruno, he did not hesitate to make a direct sideways tackle.
"Well done!" Guidolin shouted from the sidelines.
One person fights a line of defense!
How is the result?
In the stands, the team flags were waving and the cheers were loud.
"He's actually faster again!"
When they saw Khedira flying directly to tackle Bruno without hesitation, many Udinese fans in the stands of the Friuli Stadium screamed in surprise.
The entire game was so suppressed by the opponent that they could not even make a decent attack. If they really lost like this, what a painful blow it would be to Udinese?
Perhaps it was due to Bruno's infection, or perhaps every player was holding back their anger, but Udinese's players gradually rekindled their fighting spirit.
As soon as he entered the penalty area, Caceres came up to him.
Bruno made a direct move to take a shot.
