Today’s starting lineups for both sides are as follows:
Home team Juventus, head coach Allegri, formation 352
Goalkeeper Szczesny
Three central defenders from left to right Sandro, Bonucci and Rugani
The five midfielders from left to right are Spinazzola, Bernardeschi, Emre Can, Bentancur and De Sciglio

Courtois
Three central defenders from left to right Romagnoli, Dias and Akanji
Midfield four from left to right Alphonso Davies, Joan Armene, Goretzka and Reece James
Single attacking midfielder Brandt
Double forward Haaland and Lautaro
Seeing this starting list, Tong Yi smiled slightly. Juventus did have reservations in this game. Their main center Ronaldo was not included in the starting list today, or even the big list, but was sitting on the bench.
In the stands!
Moreover, the main players such as Chiellini, Matuidi and Cancelo all sat on the bench.
This shows what?
Juventus still pays more attention to the UEFA Champions League match with Ajax next week. They want to go further in the UEFA Champions League and win the league championship!
And they feel that even if the worst outcome occurs, they will just lose to AC Milan. Even if they lose this game, they are still 6 points ahead of AC Milan. As long as they go all out in the following games, they will not be able to give AC Milan a loss.
Milan's chance to overtake them.
Therefore, Allegri had reservations about this game.
Moreover, Allegri also speculated that AC Milan should have reservations about this game. Because AC Milan will not be idle next week, they also have a very important game to play. That is the 2018-2019 Europa League.
In the quarter-finals of the Cup, AC Milan faces their old rival Naples this season at home!
In this game, AC Milan's opponent is very strong. It can be said that their strength is equal to AC Milan.
AC Milan is now ranked second in Serie A, while Napoli is ranked third. AC Milan is 6 points ahead of Naples. Therefore, the strength gap between the two teams is comparable to that between Juventus and Ajax.
The gap is much smaller. In order to ensure victory in the next game, Allegri feels that Tong Yi will also hide some of the main players in this game to prepare for the next game.
But obviously, he guessed wrong!
In this game, Tong Yi did not hide any main players, but all main players were at home.
Seeing such a thing, Allegri was also stunned. He was a little surprised. Did Tong Yi really give up the Europa League to compete for the Serie A championship? But this is not cost-effective, after all, now
It seems that AC Milan's chances of winning the Europa League are higher than the chances of winning the Serie A!
After all, they are far behind Juventus in Serie A.
Well, the main thing is that if Juventus doesn't make mistakes, even if AC Milan wins a complete victory, they will not be able to win the league championship! On the contrary, as long as AC Milan works hard in the following games to ensure that they can continue to perform so well, they
The chances of winning the Europa League are still very high.
Therefore, if Allegri were the head coach of AC Milan, at this time, he would focus mainly on the Europa League and compete for the Europa League championship.
Therefore, Tong Yi's choice was beyond his expectation!
He even felt a little baffled, thinking that Tong Yi didn't think that AC Milan really had a chance to win the Serie A championship this season, right? This is really overthinking, crazy!
Even though Juventus did not field their full lineup in this game, Allegri was still confident.
Without Ronaldo, Juventus can still win this game!
The Juventus fans at the scene also thought so. They immediately shouted loudly, signaling Juventus to strengthen their attack and strive to break through AC Milan's goal as soon as possible, so that the damn AC Milan fans could recognize the reality and let him know who he knew.
Is he the big and small king?
The Juventus players really started attacking like crazy from the moment they started, looking very confident!
But at this moment, AC Milan's sudden high pressure made them feel the pressure instantly!
Haaland and Lautaro rushed towards the Juventus ball-carrying player like two beasts. Bentancur was a little affected, and he immediately passed the ball. It was a pity that the passing footwork was
There was a slight mistake and the football rolled directly to the feet of Brandt who was pressing up!
Brandt intercepted the football before Delevingne on the wing!
When Bentancur saw the ball lost, he instantly became upset, then rushed forward and directly tackled Brandt with a fierce sliding shovel!
Unexpectedly, Brandt had expected it. When Bentancur was about to tackle him, he quickly spiked the ball in a lightning "Z" direction, directly avoiding Bentancur's sliding tackle, and then
Holding the ball at high speed and heading towards the Juventus penalty area!
The Juventus fans at the scene frowned and felt the danger.
The ball was thrown too easily, and he felt that Bentancur's handling was too rough!
The young Rugani, the right center back in the penalty area, immediately came up and intercepted Brandt holding the ball. He was not reckless and did not try to steal the ball as soon as he came up. Instead, he put his body across Brandt holding the ball.
On the way forward, it blocked Brandt's inward route.
While he blocked Brandt from continuing to advance with the ball, he also gave Delevingne time to return to defense.
Brandt, who was holding the ball, naturally knew what the young Rugani was thinking. He immediately stepped on his bicycle quickly, and then immediately changed direction to the side to prepare for a pass. Rugani was shocked and immediately turned sideways, facing the side.
Prepare to actively follow Brandt. But at this moment, Brandt suddenly cuts in with the heel of his left foot and quickly cuts inward and changes direction, directly from Rugani's side to the middle of the penalty area.
Rugani was shocked and immediately reached out to pull, but he didn't touch Brandt's body at all.
The Juventus fans at the scene also exclaimed and expressed disbelief.
How could Brandt get past Rugani so easily? Although Rugani is young, he is older than Brandt, right? How could he be deceived so easily?
Danger!
Before the Juventus fans could figure it out, someone started roaring at the scene.
It is indeed very dangerous. Brandt is already on the line of the penalty area. From this position, he can take the ball and shoot. It is very dangerous. Bonucci in the middle of the penalty area immediately pushed out to prevent Brandt from shooting.
In an instant, he swung his legs and shot, leaving no room for Brandt to shoot.
Unexpectedly, the moment he rushed out, Brandt quickly changed to the bottom, rushed directly past Bonucci, and rushed to the bottom line in the penalty area!
At this time, Brandt rushed into the Juventus penalty area. Bonucci really didn't dare to make too many defensive moves. So he was still a little scrupulous, so he didn't hit Brandt's body.
He immediately turned around and quickly followed Brandt's pace, blocking the inside line and not giving Brandt a chance to directly threaten the goal.
But at this moment, Brandt, who had just caught up with the football, suddenly kicked his heel and knocked the football directly behind his body near the penalty spot!
Danger, all the Juventus fans at the scene screamed in horror.
Because Haaland rushed up quickly, and there were almost no defensive players. Juventus midfielder James was far behind, and Haaland was going to face the goalkeeper directly.
!
This is very dangerous, after all, Haaland is a very powerful center!
Although he is very young now, he has scored 20 goals and provided 7 assists in Serie A so far. He has also scored 33 goals and provided 11 assists in all competitions. This data is really impressive.
Everyone expressed disbelief. Is this guy really a young man? This performance is really too fierce!
Moreover, Haaland's partnership with the young Lautaro is also very scary. He has currently scored 20 goals and provided 3 assists in Serie A. He has scored 29 goals and provided 8 assists in all competitions.
These two are now the hottest young forwards in Serie A, attracting the attention of many wealthy clubs. Among them, Juventus is interested in Haaland. They are preparing to bring the Norwegian to Juventus in the summer.
He went to Sri Lanka. And Inter Milan has taken a fancy to Lautaro and is now chasing him crazily!
These two people really make many wealthy families jealous!
Now seeing Haaland rushing towards the football, the Juventus players and fans became nervous and looked very frightened!
Szczesny in front of the goal instantly lowered his center of gravity and stared at the football near the penalty spot!
Haaland, who rushed up, almost didn't stop the ball, and directly swung his leg and kicked the football hard!
Sandro from the side quickly slid over and threw his entire body out, using his body to block Haaland's explosive shot that was close at hand!
Only after the shovel came out did he realize that he had been fooled. Harland had no intention of shooting immediately. Harland's rapid swing of his leg was just a fake move. After deceiving him into sliding out, Harland's swing was round
With his right leg, he quickly dunked the football to the right, directly past Sandro who was sliding over!
Haaland instantly opened the space for shooting, which made the faces of Juventus fans change drastically!
And Szczesny in front of the goal quickly moved sideways, preparing to pounce to the right side of Zhou's goal. Because he judged that Haaland's next shot would be from this angle!
With a bang, Haaland, who had just dunked Sandro, did not adjust at all. He rushed to the football and directly swung his legs, hit the football hard with one kick, and fired a explosive shot.
The football shot out quickly, flying towards the upper and lower right corners of the goal like lightning!
The speed of the ball was very fast, and Szczesny in front of the goal immediately flew sideways, stretching his hands straight to seal the upper right corner.
It's a pity that he tried his best and still didn't touch the football. The football flew directly over his palm and flew quickly into the Juventus goal!
One to zero, less than three minutes into the game, AC Milan scored in the away game!
This was beyond everyone's expectations. All the Juventus fans at the scene were stunned and couldn't believe their eyes! Many guys even immediately raised their hands, rubbed their eyes frantically, and then looked again
Looking into the stadium, they still saw the football bouncing in their goal!
Juventus fans instantly turned pale!
How could it be? How could this happen?
Why is it our Juventus team that concedes the goal first? This is completely wrong! Our Juventus team is much better than AC Milan, and this is our home court, so why is it that we, Juventus, are not in the lead?
Why?
The Juventus fans at the scene were really puzzled and their faces were very ugly.
Especially when he saw AC Milan fans celebrating wantonly at their home stadium, his face became even more ugly, his mood became even worse, and he became even more angry. It was like they had been slapped hard in the face.
The same makes them feel disgraced, jealous and aggrieved!
The media reporters in the stands also expressed disbelief, and Romano didn't believe his eyes.
How can this be?
This is the home court of Juventus. Juventus is the top team in Serie A, 9 points ahead of AC Milan. How come they conceded the goal at the start? How is this possible?
