Chapter 146 Against Piacenza
Chapter 146: Fighting against Piacenza
Leonardo Galiley Stadium, Piacenza's home court, can accommodate up to 21,608 fans to enter the court to watch the game at the same time.
When Piacenza participated in the Serie A, the attendance rate of this stadium was very high and often burst. However, since the club was relegated from the tragedy of the first-tier league, the attendance rate of this stadium was that Wang Xiaoer had been in the New Year, and it was getting worse every year.
This season, due to the team's record being quite sluggish, the attendance rate of Galiley Stadium was even worse. When Piacenza was fighting at his doorstep, he usually only attracted about 3,000 fans to watch the game.
In the previous life, Piacenza played against Turin at home, and only a few 3,056 spectators came to the Galilee Stadium.
However, this time, due to the appearance of Chu Jiang, the stadium attracted more than 7,000 fans to flock in at the same time!
In today's Serie B League, Chu Jiang, who is only 17 years old, is the biggest star in the league. Countless fans are full of curiosity about this magical goalkeeper with superb free kick footwork, strong defensive skills and handsome appearance. With his appearance, he can attract a large number of spectators to watch both at home and away games.
This is the appeal of superstars!
Generally speaking, superstars with this appeal in the minds of fans are usually shooters. Those attacking players either score goals, have fancy skills, or have outstanding looks.
However, the emergence of Chu Jiang subverted this common sense of people.
Chu Jiang can do what those Sagittarius can do; however, Chu Jiang can do it, those Sagittarius can never do it in their lifetime!
In this game, Lyerda still ranks his usual 4231 formation. In this league, Lyerda has never changed his starting formation at the beginning.
Piacenza, who played at home, lined up 433 in an attack-oriented formation under the arrangement of their head coach Madonna.
In the 8th minute of the game, the Torino team, who played away, almost penetrated the goal guarded by the home team Cassano.
At that time, Chu Jiang used his pre-predictive command of defense, commanding his teammates in Torino, and forced the Piacenza shooter Graffiedi, who dribbled the ball into a dead end, to quickly choose a long shot.
For Grafie Eddie's long shot with a low power and a bad angle, Chu Jiang stood on the goal line, stretched out his arms, gently patted the football, and then easily carried it into his arms. After observing the running of his teammates on the field, Chu Jiang immediately launched a signature long pass fast attack.
After three passes and two passes, Lazarevic, who was inserted into the side, knocked the ball back to the middle. In the middle of the front of the penalty area, Torino midfielder Devize arrived and faced the ball without making any adjustments. He immediately shot with a strong shot!
The football roared past goalkeeper Casano's fingers like a cannonball, but hit the post.
The Piacenza escaped!
Then, the two teams attacked and defended each other, and they fought hard to distinguish on the field.
Led by the number one scorer Cassia, and amid the cheers of home fans, Piacenza organized several threatening offensives.
In the 13th minute, Piacenza broke through the defense of Turin left-back Garofalo on the right, and the right-back Andre Mei (mei) who came on loan from Inter Milan completed a cross on the wing.
In the middle of the penalty area, Cassia beat Dambrosio and headed the ball with a header. The quality of the shot was very high.
Facing the fast-flying football, Chu Jiang jumped on the spot, jumped, and held the football out of the beam with one hand.
If it were the past, Chu Jiang might have lost his header.
After all, footballs fly faster and have tricky angles, and Chu Jiang's ability to defend against high-altitude balls is not very strong.
However, after frequent rounds of special training, Chu Jiang had already been fully prepared for such attacks, and his air defense capabilities were also enhanced, so he naturally would not easily lose the goal.
In the 27th minute, Cassia's shot was still a test of Chu Jiang's defense again.
While defending his opponent, due to the slippery stadium, Turin midfielder De Feudis accidentally slid to the point. Piacenza's midfielder Catinali seized this fleeting opportunity and immediately passed a straight pass, hitting behind Turin's central defender Platali.
Cassia rushed to the space behind Puta Tari immediately and took the lead in controlling the football.
However, just as he was about to take a shot, a huge black shadow suddenly appeared in front of him.
After accurately predicting Katinari's straight pass, Chu Jiang decisively chose to attack as soon as possible. The moment Cassia received the ball, Chu Jiang had already hit the ball. He jumped without hesitation, snatched the ball away from Cassia's feet, and knocked Cassia alone and turned it over!
After having 11 points of attack attribute, Chu Jiang was no longer satisfied with what he used to be, staying honestly and obediently on the goal line, passively waiting for his opponent's attack. Now his control range is getting bigger and bigger, and as soon as he has the chance, he will immediately choose to take the initiative.
After Chu Jiang's defensive range expanded, the defense pressure of Turin was significantly reduced, while Piacenza's offensive pressure increased greatly. As long as the Piacenza player's last pass was not in place, or was close to the goal, the football would enter Chu Jiang's control range.
On the football field, the Piacenza was stubborn, but the Turin team was in a big way.
With super goalkeepers like Chu Jiang guarding the back defense for them, the players of the Turin team have no worries when attacking.
The two full-backs of Torino were unambiguous when pressing the assists, and did not care about the gaps behind them. They knew that with Chu Jiang's timely command, there would definitely be teammates to make up for them. Of course, if they were not active enough in the team's defense, they would definitely encounter Chu Jiang's loud roar.
The open offensive style of the Turin team put a lot of pressure on Piacenza's defense. However, due to Bianchi's injury and absence, the Turin team's attack power was limited in the frontcourt, and their luck was poor, so although the Turin team's offense was very lively, it never achieved results.
As the first half approached the end of the first half, Ogbonna took advantage of a set piece in the frontcourt to head the ball and scored a goal from Piacenza.
However, the referee called out that Ogbonner had additional movements in his hand when he was fighting for the header, which interfered with the opponent's defense.
So, that goal was invalid.
In the end, after forty-five minutes of fierce battle, neither teams in the battle made any achievements and had no choice but to temporarily accept the 0:0 draw.
After a short break, the two teams changed sides and fought again in the second half.
Turin coach Lerda did not make any adjustments during the halftime break, and the players on the field in the next game were still the eleven starting players of this game.
Piacenza's head coach Madona replaced the 36-year-old veteran Sergio Volpi with the poor performance in the first half tommaso bianchi.
Volpi was an Italian international, played for Sampdoria for most of his career, and had a brilliant career experience. However, Volpi is now in the late stages of his career.
Piacenza's head coach Madona replaced Volpi at this time, and he definitely hoped that the veteran would use his experience to help the team organize offense and defense better. At the same time, it was also because Volpi's current physical fitness can only support half-court balls.
After Volpi came on the court, he soon played a significant role in Piacenza's offensive and defensive organization. Although this veteran's physical strength is not as good as before, his experience in playing football is more experienced and he has a clear view of the situation on the court.
With his help, Piacenza's defense became more stable. In terms of offense, his hiddenness in passing also made Chu Jiang feel a little headache.
When watching the game on the bench, Volpi had already discovered that the core of the defense of the Turin team was their goalkeeper Chu Jiang. Chu Jiang's command during defense determined the deployment of Turin team's troops on the court and the intensity of the defense. His accurate prediction in advance was an important reason why Piacenza's offense was repeatedly blocked.
Therefore, when playing the game, Volpi immediately took targeted arrangements. When passing the ball, he pursued a quick shot or a more concealed pass, making it difficult for Chu Jiang to accurately judge his way of shooting in advance.
Not long after, his transformation created a good opportunity for Piacenza.
In the 66th minute, after Volpi got the ball, he immediately passed the ball to his teammate and rushed forward at high speed. When his teammate handed the ball back to him, he made a very sudden pass and directly sent the ball behind the two central defenders of Torino.
On his passing route, Cassia appeared in time again.
As an excellent shooter, Cassia can always find a chance to shoot at the first time. This time, he found a chance to shoot with his shooting talent.
Cassia pk Chujiang!
Looking up at Chu Jiang's position, Cassia dribbled the ball into the penalty area of Turin.
This time, Chu Jiang chose to attack quickly without hesitation. With enough attack attributes, Chu Jiang was obviously more confident than before.
In previous games, Chu Jiang rarely chose to attack. Cassia noticed this particularly when studying the characteristics of the goalkeeper of Turin before the game. However, this time, Chu Jiang actually attacked so decisively, which made Cassia somewhat unexpected.
However, Cassia quickly adjusted her mentality.
When the goalkeeper attacks, the shooter must quickly choose the offensive method. Once hesitates, the goalkeeper may block the shooting route, thereby wasting the opportunity to score.
After taking a quick glance at Chu Jiang's running route, Cassia immediately chose a shooting route.
Swing your legs!
Cassia made a shot!
