"Hello, audience friends, welcome to Italian Football Sports [-], I am the host Di Livio."
"Hi everyone, I'm your old friend Vieri."
"Today is Sunday, October 10, and we are about to usher in the last game of the sixth round of Serie A - Juventus away to Cesena."
In the live broadcast room, Di Livio and Vieri chatted about today's game.
Vieri said with a smile: "If you are a fan who hasn't watched the game for a long time, you may have such an understanding of this game-this must be a showdown with clear strengths and weaknesses. After all, Juventus is an old and strong team."
"But if you pay attention to the Serie A league recently, you won't draw such a conclusion. Because of the two opponents in this game, he is all ranked near the relegation zone! The newly promoted Cesena is ranked 14th in the standings, and the Serie A overlord Juventus is still behind Cesena, ranking 15th! Don't you think it's weird?"
Looking at Vieri's schadenfreude, Di Livio said angrily: "Now the league has just started a few games, and nothing can be seen at all."
Vieri: "Anyway, I can see that Juventus are more than ten points behind the capital."
Di Livio: "...Let's talk about the starting lists of the two teams today..."
"Juventus finally ushered in good news in this game. Their main goalkeeper Buffon finally returned from injury! In the previous few games, the performance of the substitute goalkeeper Manninger was not satisfactory. Juventus also conceded goals in recent rounds, ranking at the forefront of Serie A. But now that Buffon is back, everything will come back."
"Metzelder is also coming back from injury. With him and Buffon starting the game, I believe that Juventus' defense will be solid in this game!"
Vieri: "But when the two of them were not injured before, Juventus still didn't win?"
Di Livio: "...let's talk about the starting lineup for the game..."
"Today Juventus formed a 4-3-2-1 formation: goalkeeper Buffon, defenders from left to right Chiellini, Barzagli, Metzelder and Mota, three midfielders from left to right Diego, Ballack and Guti, two shadow forwards Piero and Raul, center Trezeguet."
"Today, Yunsheng finally came up with his ideal starting lineup. It was not easy. Apart from Buffon and Metzelder, Sali Hamikic, who was injured before the season, has also returned from injury. In the last game, he also had the opportunity to come off the bench for 20 minutes. His performance was good, and the depth of Juventus' bench has also been strengthened."
"Especially their two shadow strikers Piero and Raul. In the previous two games, the two alternately staged hat-tricks, and they are in a brave state. I believe that Juventus is very likely to usher in their first victory of the season in this game."
After Di Livio introduced Juventus' lineup, Vieri also briefly talked about Cesena's situation.
"The strength of Cesena's main lineup today is not weak. At least compared to other newly promoted or relegated teams, they still have many outstanding players in the team."
"For example, Giacherini, the core midfielder, his organization and passing are the most important parts of this Cesena team."
"There is also the young striker Ighalo, his finishing ability is also very good."
"Veteran midfielder Appiah, who used to be a member of the Juventus team, will play against his former club at home this year."
"The 25-year-old midfielder Parolo has excellent offense and defense, and he also has a good long shot."
Vieri introduced the players in this Cesena team. He introduced the technical characteristics of almost every player very seriously. When he mentioned a right back, he focused on the introduction: "The 24-year-old Japanese player Nagatomo Yuto joined Cesena from FC Tokyo this summer. Ability is the key to his foothold in Serie A."
"Compared to Nagatomo Yuto, who started consecutively, the two Chinese nationals who transferred to Juventus this summer are basically commercial activities. Apart from Zheng Zhi unlocking the Serie A appearance record, Yu Dabao even played in the youth team. Yunsheng had the preference to promote Chinese players in Cottbus and Monaco before, but it is not so easy for Chinese players to gain a foothold in the Juventus team. Even Chen Tao and Yu Hai, who are playing well in the Premier League now, may not be able to get a starting position in this Juventus team. , not to mention players who have not proven themselves in the European arena?"
Vieri's comments were very sharp. Although Di Livio wanted to refute, he couldn't open his mouth. In the end, he reluctantly expressed his approval: "Zheng Zhi and Yu Dabao are indeed far behind in Serie A. Yu Dabao is still young, needless to say, and Zheng Zhi is 30 years old. Even if he was the captain of the Huaguo national team before, even if he was once a top player in Asia, he still needs to prove his strength in Serie A. Originally, I wanted to call this game an 'Asian Derby'. I still think forget it, after all, whether Zheng Zhi will be able to appear in this match is still in suspense."
The two hosts were chatting. At this time, the players had finished their pre-match preparations and ran onto the court.
Amid the cheers of the home fans, the Cesena players showed high spirits.
The entire Juventus team looked serious, and no one was smiling. They stared at each other's half, silent and quiet.
I don't know if it's low morale, or is it ready to go?
Will there be a stormy attack in a short while, or a catastrophic defeat?
At this time, even the Juventus players sitting on the bench frowned, staring at the direction of the court with good eyes.
On the bench, Zheng Zhi sat there steadily.
He thought back to what Yun Sheng had said to him a few minutes ago when he was left alone at the end.
"If the first half of the game goes well today, I will let you play in the second half and give you a certain amount of offensive dominance. You are ready."
"Thank you sir! I will definitely take the game seriously and not let you down!"
"Taishi, in addition to the requirements as the head coach of the team, I also have a personal request for you - your performance on the court today must not be inferior to the Japanese on the opposite side!"
"Don't worry sir, I will definitely do it!"
Recalling what Yun Sheng said just now, Zheng Zhi turned his attention to Cesena's half-court. At the left back position, Nagatomo Yudu jumped continuously on the spot, making the final warm-up preparations before the game.
Boy, although I have no personal enmity with you, in the eyes of Chinese people, this game represents the football glory of our two countries.
As long as I have the opportunity to come off the bench, I will not embarrass Hua Guo fans!
