Gao Zheng's goal awakened Juventus' dream of being first in the group.

Even if Juventus scored another goal, it would not be able to take the first place in the group from Atletico Madrid. And Gao Zheng also clearly warned Juventus with this ball-if you continue to attack like this, I can score again.

So despite some reluctance, Allegri adjusted his tactics and slowed down Juventus' offensive rhythm-they didn't show the attitude of "I don't believe it, you can attack if you have the ability", because they know very well Gao Zheng's ability.

As Gao Zheng said before the game, he is very familiar with this court and this opponent. On the other hand, Juventus must be very familiar with Gao Zheng, knowing what Gao Zheng is good at and what he can do.

If they continue to play according to the previous rhythm, Gao Zheng is absolutely capable of scoring them again.

If they lost, they would really be unable to qualify for the group stage.

In this case, it doesn't matter which group comes first.

It is still the most important thing for the group to qualify.

After Juventus slowed down the pace, it has already equalized the score. Naturally, Atletico Madrid, which has consolidated the first place in the group, does not need to fight Juventus desperately. The mentality of the players in this game is indeed different from the last time the two sides played against each other.

Simeone also did not urge the players to constantly attack the Juventus defense.

After Gao Zheng's goal, the game that was still boiling before suddenly seemed to be poured with cold water.

After rolling his eyes and making a loud noise, he calmed down.

There is no counterattack from Juventus, and no pursuit of victory by Atletico Madrid.

The 1:1 score can completely allow the two teams to qualify together, and Atletico Madrid can also get the first place in the group as they wish. They don't need to use more goals to force Juventus to fight them to the death. The group lost first.

And Juventus doesn't have to use a victory to ensure that they qualify, because they may die on the way to victory before they win.

In this way, the two sides of the competition formed a very delicate balance.

As the game time passed, the two sides played more and more conservatively, and the ball was passed more backwards.

Even if they attack occasionally, the threat is far less than before.

In stark contrast to them was another group match, where Olympiacos played against Malmö at home, and it was very lively.

Olympiacos took the lead in the 22nd minute. However, in the 59th minute of the second half, Malmö equalized the score.

Soon Olympiacos overtook the score again.

They are expecting Atletico Madrid to beat Juventus in the away game, so that they can qualify for the group stage.

But when the live broadcast of the match between Atletico Madrid and Juventus came here, there were huge boos in the stands.

Atlético Madrid and Juventus obviously don't want to fight for Olympiacos...

With ten minutes left in the game, the two sides simply turned their feet in a tacit understanding and used up the game time.

It's certainly ugly for neutral fans. But from the perspective of the two teams, there is nothing wrong with them doing this - they really don't need to fight here for the benefit of a third party. If a player is injured, can the benefiting third party compensate them? ?

The referee also saw that the two teams had no intention of fighting, so he blew the final whistle before the stoppage time was over.

From the end of the game to the end, the two teams did not change players once. This shows how much the two teams' desire to win has degenerated after Gao Zheng's goal.

You must know that since the restructuring of the Champions League in 1992, before them, there were only two games where no one was changed...

In the end, with this victory, Juventus overwhelmed Olympiacos by one point, won the right to qualify for the group, and was able to participate in the knockout stage.

Although Olympiacos finally defeated Malmö 4:2 at home, they still missed the Champions League knockout round and could only rank third in the group to participate in the Europa League in the second half of the season.

Atletico Madrid topped the group table with 13 points.

After the game, Allegri was satisfied with the result of the game in the press conference: "... The important thing is to qualify for the group. I am very happy that we can continue to participate in the Champions League this season. The situation like last season has not been repeated..."

A reporter asked him if he changed his tactics because of Gao Zheng's goal, focusing on stability.

He shook his head and denied: "Of course not. Gao's goal did make us aware of the danger. But it was not because of him that we changed our style of play. In fact, we made corresponding adjustments in the locker room at halftime. Be conservative. Because we know that even if we concede in the second half, a draw is enough to get us out of the group."

Of course he wouldn't tell the truth, wouldn't that be a slap in the face?

He didn't need to raise Zheng's prestige at the cost of damaging his reputation.

The reporters did not ask why Juventus played too conservatively in the end. For Italian reporters, Juventus's smooth advancement to the knockout round is already a victory for Italian football. After all, Juventus failed in the group stage last season. was eliminated.

Being able to reach the top 16 of the Champions League this season is a great improvement, making everything possible in the future.

As for Atlético de Madrid, they got the right to qualify for the group and ensured the first place in the group. There is nothing to say, this is a very satisfying result.

Atletico Madrid returned to China and then ushered in the league with Villarreal.

This game attracted the attention of the Chinese media, and it was also because after the game, Gao Zheng will return to China to train with the team and prepare for the Asian Cup.

Everyone's concern is not to see Gao Zheng score a goal, they are not very interested in this. Their concern is that Gao Zheng is injured. It doesn't matter whether they score in the last league game, as long as they are safe and healthy, they will be back.

They don't want to see Gao Zheng injured in this game, so he will directly miss the bloody drama of the Asian Cup.

Perhaps even the Atlético Madrid fans in Spain had little hope for the outcome of the match.

The team has just finished the Champions League and has not changed players. The physical fitness of the main lineup will definitely not be very good.

In addition, Gao Zheng is going back soon, so I'm afraid his mind is not on the league.

So what the result of this game will be, you can imagine it with your knees.

The "Aspen" newspaper is already popularizing knowledge about the Asian Cup for Atletico Madrid fans, telling those Atletico Madrid fans who usually don't pay attention to Asian football at all, that the Asian Cup is a level of competition with the European Cup and the America's Cup. Like the African Cup, it is held every winter and is the highest level event in Asia.

The current Asian Cup is held in Australia. As for why Australia, which is obviously a country in Oceania, can host the Asian Cup and even participate in the Asian Cup? The "Aspen" newspaper explained that this is because Australia has long joined the AFC, and participating in the World Cup qualifiers is also a qualifier in the Asian region, so it is eligible to participate in and host the Asian Cup.

After this popular science, it can be regarded as an answer to the doubts of some Atletico Madrid fans before.
