PS1: This is the update on Saturday, a little late. I hope that all book friends don’t care too much about the update time. I’ll guarantee that I won’t stop updating...

PS2: Let me talk about the book friends group here. The group numbers are three, seven, zero, five, four, nine, nine, one, nine, and the verification answer is NTR Knight, well, that's it.

PS3: Here I would like to thank the book friends "Fengyue Zheng", "Xiao Li Fei's Talk", "Shura Xu Zhengyang", and "Tianyuan Hanqi" for their rewards.

PS4: Belgium, the second-place in the world, was eliminated by Wales in the quarterfinals, and head coach Wilmotz is definitely to blame for this result. Even as he said, there is no problem with tactical arrangement, it is indeed difficult for a coach who cannot even manage the locker room to play out all the strength of Belgium. I hope the Belgian Football Association can learn from this lesson this time, and ask a head coach who can calm these players and don’t repeat the mistakes of his predecessors…

As one of the brain and midfield dual cores of Fiorentina tonight (the other is Barack), Pirlo naturally needs to have the ability to watch and listen to all directions. And Pirlo can also see that Ribery, who came on the bench, could hardly pose enough threat to Juventus' defense under Pesotto's targeted defense. Several forced crosses were easily cleared by the Juventus defenders who were guarding the penalty area. Therefore, after seeing Mourinho's gesture, Pirlo immediately began to implement another plan that he had already made a draft.

However, in order to confuse the opponent, in the next few attacks, Pirlo still chose to pass the ball to Ribery, preparing to transfer Juventus' defensive power to one side as much as possible, and then launch a sudden attack on the right guarded by Grosso!

Of course, part of the reason why Pirlo chose this is because he wanted to give Ribery a few more opportunities to perform, and did not want to give up his teammate so early. After all, Ribery's ability is obvious to all Fiorentine players. The gap between him and Vincent is only in his reading and experience of the game.

As for whether Ribery can seize it, it is not something Pirlo can manage. Anyway, he has given the opportunity, Vincent can seize and end Zebina (although the Spaniard himself left due to injury), creating a favorable situation for Fiorentina to play more and less on the court. If Ribery does not have the ability to settle Pesotto, even if he is deprived of the power of the main attack by Pirlo, the French will have nothing to complain about at that time.

Although he chose to give Ribery a few more opportunities, the result of the subsequent two attacks still disappointed Pirlo. Although the French also realized the problem and knew that they needed to give convincing performances, they would probably lose the right to attack independently, but facing the experienced Pesotto, Ribery could not escape the opponent's palm. The Frenchman first used his speed to force the breakthrough and directly used a physical cover to get the ball out of the bottom line, and then was intercepted by Pesotto in advance when he tried to cooperate with his teammates, and almost made a textbook-like quick counterattack!

Trezege, who received a long pass from his teammate in the backcourt, immediately turned around and tried to launch a counterattack, but Lucio and Nesta, who were prepared, immediately attacked him. The former held Trezege with his body, making it impossible for the French to speed up as soon as possible, while the latter took the opportunity to break the ball, killing Juventus' counterattack in the bud!

At this time, the negative impact of Juventus's one-man battle began to gradually emerge. Although Pesotto's appearance kept Juventus' defense line intact, and with his rich experience and a complete set of defensive systems, it was difficult to make up for the reduced frontcourt force. This made it difficult for the Zebras to make a threatening quick counterattack even if they successfully defended.

Seeing that a counterattack opportunity was gone, Trapatoni looked helplessly at Ibrahimovic, who was sitting on the bench watching the game with dissatisfaction. The old coach knew in his heart that if Ibrahimovic was still on the court, then Lucio and Nesta would never be able to double-team the defense of Trezege as they are now. The Swedes' excellent footwork skills and top-level physical fitness are enough to attract the defensive attention of Lucio or Nesta, and thus create a one-on-one attack opportunity for Trezege, so as to save the French from the fate of being double-teamed.

But there is no way to replace Ibrahimovic. Who made Zebina be sent off by a red card at the beginning of the game, causing a huge vacuum in Juventus' defense on the right. If Trapatoni turned a blind eye to this, then Fiorentina would definitely make a big fuss on this point in the future and use Juventus' defensive vacuum on the right to score more goals.

The two evils are less serious. Faced with this situation, Trapatoni had to choose to sacrifice offensive ability in exchange for the team's stability on the defensive end.

So, the reason why Juventus fell into the current situation in this game was that Rezebina, a pitfall! After Trezege was intercepted by Nesta, Trapatoni thought hatefully.

Although Juventus' midfield has strong running and scoring ability after the back-shot, when Trezeguet, the arrowhead figure in the counterattack tactic was stared by Lucio and Nesta, and even making goals for teammates became quite difficult, the Zebras' advantages in these two aspects will naturally be difficult to play.

After the steal, Nesta did not give Trezeguet a chance to counterattack on the spot, and immediately passed the ball to Marklele in front. The latter rushed to Nedved's interception and handed the ball safely to Pirlo's feet!

Under Pirlo's command, Fiorentina once again launched an attack from the left. Ribery pulled the side and received a pass from Pirlo. Zivo quickly inserted from the rear, and Barack moved to the left side of the midfield quietly, forming a triangle position with Ribery and Zivo!

Juventus players also reacted very quickly. Pesotto, Camoranesi and Braci immediately followed their respective defensive targets, and did not allow Fiorentina to have a local situation of more and less playing. However, in this way, Juventus' defensive power in the middle will inevitably become empty.

If Lucio did not have the offensive desire of Lucio, who had no less than any forward, then Juventus's man-to-man + regional defense strategy would not have many problems. However, when Lucio also invested in the offense and received Barack's cross pass, Juventus' mid-lane defense immediately became extremely weak!

"I'll just let me tell you, is this guy a central defender or a forward?" Emerson, who had been paying close attention to Pirlo's movements, couldn't help but complain about his national teammate in his heart after seeing this scene. Faced with this two-on-one situation, even this Brazilian midfielder, known as the iron broom, felt quite difficult. After all, no matter which one Emerson defended, he had to quit the other. The most important thing is that these two guys have good long-range shot skills. If they quit them at this distance, then their own door would be dangerous...

Lucio's advancement was very fast. In the few seconds Emerson was hesitating, Lucio had already dribbled the ball and rushed to the area 30 meters away from Juventus' goal. This distance was within the range Mourinho allowed him to shoot long shots!
