Chapter 576 Chapter [010] - Right and wrong after the game - [Today's first update]

After the match between the Italian team and the Paraguay team, this place became the place that the reporters yearned for the most. They were all looking forward to the post-match press conference, because there were too many news points for today's game! !

In the post-match press conference, Lippi's formation was questioned, especially in the use of Cannavaro. However, Lippi avoided talking about it in the post-match press conference. When answering reporters' questions, he said: "This game is really a pity, because we should have won. Paraguay scored the first goal close to the goal, but we responded immediately. We played great. This is a game that we should have won, and we should also improve our attack power.

Lippi did not give too high a rating to the opponent who tied him, "Paraguay will only hide in the backcourt and defend without any creativity."

This is definitely Lippi's way of retaliating against the Paraguayan coach Martino, because the Paraguayan coach Martino said before the game that the Italian team lacked creativity.His original words are as follows: "Everyone knows that Italy's most effective weapon is their defense. Although they are world champions, they are all sappers on the field and execute tactics meticulously. But we may be stronger physically and more aggressive tactically, taking advantage of Italy's physical disadvantages."

In the eyes of Paraguayans, Italy is not always a strong team. It can even be said that in Martino's mind, Paraguayan players are more creative than Italian players.

This is indeed the case. Except for Xu Zhou's occasional flashes, the entire Italian team has no creativity, and it doesn't even create any threat to Paraguay's goal wall.

At the press conference, reporters mentioned the issue of Cannavaro many times, but Lippi did not talk about Cannavaro from the beginning to the end. Although he avoided talking about it, there will definitely be media reports after the game.After the game, an Italian media reported such a report: "The Italian team bet on Cannavaro; a fatal mistake questioned the employment of coach Lippi!"

They wrote in their article: Cannavaro, who is about to turn 37, was selected for the Italian team, which was originally a controversial decision.Unexpectedly, Lippi not only handed the captain's armband to Cannavaro, but also put him in the starting lineup in the first game of the Italian team.However, Cannavaro disappointed the fans.

In the match between Italy and Paraguay, Cannavaro entered the starting list and wore the captain's armband.Although he is 37 years old, Cannavaro has a feeling that he is still young in the first few grabs.However, Cannavaro accidentally made a big mistake in the 39th minute due to his aging status.Paraguay had few chances in the first half as they lost control of their midfield.In the 39th minute, Chiellini made a defensive foul in the backcourt, and Paraguay got a rare offensive opportunity.Barreto sent a precise long pass from the midfielder, and Paraguayan striker Santa Cruz successfully reversed offside and scored a single-handed goal.

It is the Italian captain Cannavaro who is responsible for man-marking Santa Cruz.The moment Barreto passed the ball, Cannavaro, as a central defender, was stuck in front of Santa Cruz, but he did not subconsciously destroy or turn around, missing the best defensive opportunity.Chiellini, who was in Santa Cruz, chased quickly, but the distance was too far.When Santa Cruz received the pass from Renato and shook his head to attack the goal, Cannavaro could only turn his head and watch the ball enter the net.When the Italian team's defense needed him the most, Cannavaro chose to stay put.After conceding the ball, Buffon was very angry.

Cannavaro, who is about to turn 37, is the most experienced player in Italy, but also a controversial player.As an excellent central defender, Cannavaro led the Italian team to successfully win the World Cup trophy in Berlin in 2006. However, due to the decline in physical fitness due to age, his competitive state is obviously not as good as before.Last summer, Real Madrid gave up Cannavaro.This summer, Juventus made the same choice.Judging from the choices of the two giants Real Madrid and Juventus, Cannavaro is no longer suitable for the top European league level.

Before the opening of the World Cup, Cannavaro made his choice: because he likes Dubai, he decided to go to the Middle East to seek gold.This is shocking news.What shocked people was not Cannavaro, but Lippi.The Italian team, famous for its chain defense, has never lacked excellent central defenders, but Lippi stubbornly chose a former balloon star who has withdrawn from the core of football as the leader of Italy's World Cup in South Africa. This is a decision that requires courage.

Of course, the report on Cannavaro is more than this one, and a German media also published a report related to Cannavaro after the game. Their title is: "Cannavaro's mistakes are dangerous and the team's 37-year-old veteran can have a 'good death'?"

In the article, they wrote: In a World Cup group match last night, the Italian team drew 1-1 with Paraguay. It was precisely because of a fatal mistake made by captain Cannavaro in defense that led to a goal by Paraguay, which almost made the defending champion fall into a doomed situation.

As the core and captain of the Italian team's defense, Cannavaro is heavily relied on by coach Lippi.Although he is 37 years old and is about to leave Serie A to go to West Asia to seek gold, Lippi still voted for the veteran.However, today's game sounded the alarm for the veteran.

At the age of 37, Cannavaro, who has played in the World Cup four times, can still "die well"?At least in today's game, Cannavaro did not deliver a completely satisfactory answer.

In this game played in the rain, there were not many highlights in the first half.However, Paraguay's offensive style of play is really eye-catching, but they are very aggressive, but they are not very threatening. The Italian national team's Italian defense is quite effective.However, in the [-]th minute of the first half, Paraguay's midfielder suddenly exerted strength, and Renato passed through the entire defense line of the Italian team. Santa Cruz successfully reversed offside and scored a single goal.

There is a lot of responsibility for this goal on Cannavaro.It was this conceded goal that made the Italian team very passive. If it weren't for Xu Zhou's flash of inspiration in the second half, the defending champion would likely be "opened."

Judging from the broadcast of the game, goalkeeper Buffon was also very dissatisfied with the defender's mistake.It is said that the Italian national team even had a quarrel with Cannavaro during the midfield, and the biggest reason seems to be Cannavaro's mistake this time!

Of course, when it comes to this game, one of the characters that has to be mentioned is Xu Zhou. This can be regarded as Xu Zhou's first international competition on behalf of the Italian national team.As soon as it came up, it was a big competition like the World Cup. I don't know if it was Xu Zhou's luck?Still unlucky?

If it is Xu Zhou's luck, it means that Xu Zhou was able to represent the Italian national team in the World Cup for the first time in an international competition, and he was also a starter. This is definitely a kind of luck.It's unfortunate that Xu Zhou didn't represent the national team in any international competitions before, so he must be lacking in competition experience!

However, under such a premise, Xu Zhou's performance in this game is indeed very eye-catching. Although it is not perfect, it is still enough to make Xu fans excited for a while. Can he score a goal in his World Cup debut?

After the game, the major media also praised Xu Zhou's performance, although his performance did not reach the state and role he should have played in the club.However, considering that this is Xu Zhou's first World Cup, the first time he represented the national team to participate in a big competition, and at the same time he rarely enters the national team and hardly trains with these big guys of the national team. To be able to achieve such results, this already shows Xu Zhou's strength! !

After the game, the three major Italian news agencies reported on the game one after another, and all of them praised Xu Zhou's performance in this game!

With Xu Zhou's goal, defending champion Italy drew 1-1 with South American team Paraguay in the first match of the group stage.While praising Xu Zhou's outstanding performance, the Italian media and the three major news agencies also regretted Italy's draw.

'The Azzurri's debut ended 1-1 and got off to a good start, but before half-time, Santa Cruz managed a solo goal against offside to score against the Italian goal.This once caused Italian international goalkeeper Buffon and team captain Cannavaro to have a quarrel in the locker room.Paraguayan goalkeeper Bilal blocked Pepe's shot. In the [-]th minute of the second half, Xu Zhou scored. Italy took advantage of the field in the ensuing game, but failed to score. '"Gazzetta dello Sport" commented on the first game of the Italian national team in the World Cup.

Although the opening of the tie cast a shadow on Italy's defending road, it was Xu Zhou's flash of inspiration at halftime that prevented the defending champion from being humiliated: "In the first match of the World Cup, Lippi's team drew with Paraguay 1-1.The South American team took the lead first, and Super Xu equalized the score.Buffon Cannavaro quarreled and the latter made a fatal mistake. 'Italian newspaper La Repubblica reported.

"Corriere dello Sport" commented very succinctly: "The Azzurri were defeated by Santa Cruz in the first half, and Super Xu equalized the score in the second half..." The newspapers in the capital believed that Xu Zhou saved Italy.At the same time, the "Courier" also attributed the 'victory' of the tie to Xu Zhou.

As the largest Italian media association, ANSA believes that although Italy was first scored by Paraguay in this game, Italy's performance is still good, and the biggest regret is the result of this game.

The Agence France-Presse of the three major news agencies believes that the first battle of Italy's defending tour is not smooth. Like ANSA, it regrets the result of the game and also believes that the result is not conducive to Italy.Reuters believed that Italy appeared to be very weak in this game, and a 1-1 draw with Paraguay was regarded as a narrow escape.The Associated Press commented flatly: Italy drew with Paraguay 1-1 to start the World Cup tour.
