Chapter 372 Allegri’s Summer

Author: Ant who loves watching football

Pan Yi and Allegri are doing a py deal, but the game between them has already made the headlines of major sports media newspapers around the world.

After all, this is a Champions League quarter-final knockout match, with a big score of 3-0!

Chelsea defeated Juventus in this game. Whether it is from the score or the game process, it can be said that Chelsea was under control from beginning to end. Chelsea's performance can also be said to be impeccable.

The British "Guardian" commented:

"In addition to this score, if we dig deeper, we will find that there are many very interesting details hidden in the game."

"According to the data we obtained after the game, Chelsea's ball possession rate in this game reached 61%. Although due to the influence of rainy weather, the passing success rate was only 75%, it still resulted in 17 shots!"

"Of those seventeen shots, eight were on target, resulting in three goals."

"As for Juventus, the passing success rate is as low as just over 60%, and there are only five shots in the game, and one shot on target!"

"On the one hand, this is because Juventus' midfielder is suppressed by Chelsea, and most of their shots can only be completed through long-range shots from outside the penalty area. Of course, the efficiency is even lower;"

"On the other hand, it also reflects the relatively impatient mentality of Juventus players in this game. When their offense finally pushed forward, they were eager to shoot and did not organize it well."

"Chelsea's advantage can also be seen from another data. Their steal data is astonishing, reaching 25 times! But Juventus only has 10 times. Such a disparity in data is also reflected on the field. Juventus' midfielder is basically

I was just knocked to pieces by the impact.”

"Chelsea's ball possession rate is much higher than Juventus', and there is also a big gap between the two in terms of quality of ball control. Juventus is often forced to play in the midfield when it comes to possession of the ball, but Chelsea is

Able to use the passing game to open up defenses."

"Obviously, Chelsea far surpassed their opponents in both viewing and practicality. In this Champions League quarter-final match, Chelsea showed a very comprehensive and rich offensive and defensive routine, which did not fade even in the heavy rain.

too much!"

Compared with the Guardian's analysis of the two teams' data, Italy's Turin newspaper attributed Juventus's defeat to the poor performance of the players, especially the midfield players.

"It is well known that Pirlo's defensive ability is weak. However, Pogba and Vidal blindly moved forward. In the end, the team's brains could only defend in many cases, and the midfield organization was messed up. This

What a disaster for two B2B players!"

"Torino" also pointed the finger at Juventus' two wing-backs.

They believe that when the midfield loses momentum, if the team can open a gap through the two wings, it can also activate the offense, thereby achieving "encirclement Wei and rescue Zhao" in the midfield.

But the problem is that the two wing-backs contribute too little to the offense.

Both Lichtsteiner and Evra are like two old cars that have been in disrepair and cannot drive on the road at all.

Especially compared with Marcos Alonso and Azpilicueta who were running back and forth on the opposite side, the gap was even more obvious.

"We all play as wing-backs, so why is there such a huge gap in performance!"

Of course, the newspaper criticized the team's head coach Massimiliano Allegri in the end, believing that he mainly made mistakes in hiring people, including signings.

"It's understandable that Allegri doesn't want to use Asamoah. After all, the Ghanaian's ability is indeed limited. But if you bought Evra from Manchester United who is in the later stages of his career, it is not necessarily better than him. Otherwise, how could you just

Worth 2 million?”

"Including Lichtsteiner, he is 31 years old this year and already feels a little powerless on the court."

"To be honest, our journey in the Champions League this season is over. And if we fail to make the right signings in these two key positions next season, we will not be able to make a breakthrough in the Champions League!"

"Serie A championship? This is really nothing. In Serie A, which team has a stronger lineup than us now? Milan? Inter Milan? In fact, the only one competing with us this season is Roma, and that's not the case.

We have been left behind..."

Of course, in addition to the Italian media that will reflect on Juventus's disastrous defeat, media from other parts of the world are overwhelmingly praising Chelsea.

The Chelsea management was also generous in their praise. They spoke highly of Pan Yi's coaching ability and the performance of the players.

Club chairman Bruce Buck was interviewed by the media after the game. He said: "This is a wonderful victory! Pan Yi has brought us an incredible gift. I sincerely hope that he can coach at Chelsea forever."

But for the team to advance to the semifinals in advance and even have a chance to enter the finals, Bruce Buck showed a mature and prudent side.

"It's too early for us to talk about promotion now, because we all know that a score of three to zero can only give us a certain advantage, but the game is two rounds, and we must remain optimistic and cautious."

"Moreover, this is only the quarterfinals. If we want to enter the semifinals or even the finals, we need to do more."

"But I believe that as long as the players can maintain their excellent performance in this game, then we are fully capable of winning the Champions League, and we will have a bright future!"

While the whole world was marveling at Chelsea's 3-0 victory over Juventus, the other three games in the Champions League quarter-finals were also decided.

Bayern Munich, who had drawn the "big gift package" Porto, was shocked when they went to the Dragon Stadium to play. This was actually a "dynamite package"!

With Quaresma's brace and Jackson Martinez's goal, they actually defeated the powerful Bayern 3:1 at home!

Bayern just relied on Thiago's goal to barely get an away goal.

But to be honest, Porto's lineup is quite good this season.

In addition to the "King of Outer Instep" Quaresma and "Evergrande Famous" Jack Ma, they also have Danilo, Alex Sandro, Ruben Neves, Elneny

Waiting for a good hand.

There is even Aboubakar, the Cameroon international, a man who will pose a threat to Ronaldo's position in the Saudi League Riyadh Victory team in the future!

In short, their ability to reach the quarterfinals this season was definitely not due to luck, and their 3:1 victory over Bayern also illustrates this point.

The other two games were uneventful.

Barcelona defeated Monaco 3:1 away from home, with Messi, Neymar, and Suarez MSN each scoring one goal.

The derby between Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid ended in a 0:0 draw, and the two will have to compete again in the second round at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.

After this round, since neither Bayern nor Real Madrid won, Chelsea, due to its excellent performance in the first round, became the top favorite to win the Champions League this season, tied with Barcelona.

Is it Chelsea's explosive attack in Belgium or Barcelona's MSN that is more agile?

This has also become a topic of discussion among fans around the world.

Moreover, Chelsea's three-goal victory over Juventus was certainly more shocking than Barcelona's victory over Monaco.

This has also brought Chelsea to the forefront of the media and fans, and head coach Pan Yi has once again become the focus of reports and attention from major media around the world.

Everyone is curious to know whether Pan Yi will eventually lead Chelsea to win the Champions League again as those fans imagined.

And will the curse of being hot and certain to die happen to Chelsea?

Before the second round of the Champions League, Chelsea "took time" to play a London derby.

It was April 19, when Chelsea challenged Tottenham Hotspur away from home in the 32nd round of the Premier League.

Of course, Pan Yi couldn't devote 100% to this game, which was sandwiched between two Champions League knockout rounds.

Moreover, Chelsea has already won the league championship, and the remaining games are actually more about training - of course it would be better if they can break some records along the way.

He finally sent out a young rotation lineup to deal with Tottenham.

Tottenham, on the other hand, were still fighting for a Champions League spot, so they started to attack from the start.

This game ended up with a high score and lots of wonderful goals!

In the 18th minute, Chelsea had a corner kick opportunity. Christensen's header hit Vertonghen's arm after a header. The referee awarded a penalty kick. Lingard took the penalty kick and won it instantly. Tottenham 0:1 Chelsea!

In the 24th minute, Tottenham goalkeeper Lloris took a goal kick. Ake intercepted it in the midfield, but Tottenham midfielder Eriksen got it. He shot directly from a long distance and hit the frame, and Harry Kane made the header.

Successful shot, Tottenham 1:1 Chelsea!

In the 46th minute, Eriksen took a corner kick and Vertonghen's header slid past the center post. Shazli blocked the ball into the net and helped the home team overtake the score! Tottenham 2:1 Chelsea!

In the 48th minute, Gnabry knocked back from the left, and Chik shot low from the front of the penalty area and equalized the score. Tottenham 2:2 Chelsea!

In the 53rd minute, Chelsea's corner kick opportunity, Ivanovic's header was passed, Bamford's header was blocked by Lori, and then he volleyed and scored. Chelsea took the lead again. Tottenham 2:3 Chelsea!

In the 56th minute, Walker passed the ball diagonally at a 45-degree angle. Harry Kane's shot was saved by Martin. Harry Kane made another shot into the net. Tottenham 3:3 Chelsea!

In the 77th minute, Tottenham got a good chance for a free kick at the front of the penalty area. Eriksen kicked a curve ball and scored. Tottenham 4:3 Chelsea!

In the 91st minute, Lingard cut inside and passed a cross. Ramirez shot a long shot from the top of the penalty area into the blind corner. Tottenham 4:4 Chelsea!

Finally, thanks to Ramirez's last-minute goal, Chelsea tied Tottenham in an away game!

The 4:4 score also tied the most goals scored in a single Premier League game this season - the other one was also created by Chelsea, when they defeated Manchester United 8:0 in the 20th round...

Then, Chelsea immediately faced Juventus in the second round at Stamford Bridge.

——

Pan Yi stood in front of the home team's coaching bench, tilting his head and looking to the other side.

On the visiting team's side, Allegri was tugging on his suit and yelling at the court.

Although they lost 0:3 in the first round, which made all Juventus supporters feel like they were going back to their old ways, Allegri still wanted to save face.

This week he was scolded badly by the Italian media!

Therefore, he came to Stamford Bridge today just to get a victory!

Well, a draw will do!
