Venice 2-3 Juventus

The injury to the defense almost became Juventus's sorrow. The four battles, which were originally without any suspense, were kicked out of a heart-wrenching feeling of life and death. According to the strength of the team Venice, they are completely unable to stop Juventus from entering the Champions League goal next season, but Juventus' poor defense line has given Venice a glimmer of hope.

pieced together the defense line and leaked everywhere less than 2 minutes into the game, Venice scored first with a simple cross. In this attack, Juventus' temporary set of central defenders was completely broken up. First of all, Kelly could not keep up with Yeboya, who could not move forward from the wing, and another central defender Savona did not interfere with Fella. So Venice quickly completed the ball change. After two unsuccessful breakout blocks, Juventus' defense was completely chaotic. When Fila finally entered the small penalty area to cover the ball, left wingback Cambiaso was returning to defend and fill up, which was enough to explain the problem.

The second goal was even more unacceptable. Venice simply gave Haps a chance to get the ball behind him. The distance between several Juventus central defenders was large and small, without any tacit understanding. Haps, who scored the goal, pushed the ball from the back point, but Feila also had room to kick the ball at the front point.

The three central defenders tonight are the first team-ups of the season, with Kelly on the left, Savona in the center and Alberto Costa on the right. Kelly is not a reliable candidate, and Costa is also a temporary guest appearance. The most fatal one is Savona. He is not the material in the center at all. He was caught by Tudor. As it turns out, it is a tough guy whether it is moving him to the left or the middle.

But Tudor had no choice. Gatti and Vega both had minor injuries, and there were long-term injuries on the hospital bed Bremer and Caval. As long as Tudor insisted on the three-center-back system, he would naturally face such a situation. Fortunately, he repented during the halftime break, which made Vega grit his teeth and persist in playing, replaced Costa, stabilized the defense to a certain extent, laying the foundation for subsequent victory.

If it weren't for the reckless red card before Yeldes, the suspense of the four-game would have ended long ago. Juventus has a better schedule compared to other competitors, against Bologna and Lazio. If Yeldez is there, Juventus will be able to win at least one of them, and there will be no highlights in the last round.

Yeldez stepped forward in this game and equalized the score for Juventus, hoping that this result can help him learn from his lesson. Venice's defense is more fragile than Juventus. Once Juventus quickly serves out of bounds, and once he makes a mistake in serving out of bounds, giving his opponent two goals. "Help" Juventus complete the reversal, former player Nicolusi Cavilia, who tripped Concesan in the penalty area in the 73rd minute and was awarded a penalty kick. "Undercover" can only stay at the joke level. In fact, if it weren't for his wonderful performance, Venice would have long lost hope of relegation, and even the outgoing Thiago Mota admitted that he was somewhat regretful to let him go.

Tudor, should you leave or stay?

The reason for so many details is that this game is largely a microcosm of the entire season. Don’t forget that Juventus broke Bremer and Kaval just started the season. If Kaval’s role can be replaced, then Bremer’s season reimbursement has an effect: both Mota and Tudor are constantly looking for a way to guarantee the bottom, but they all ended in failure. If Bremer is still there, he will not leave a chance to play the ball calmly. The Brazilian's injury has affected Juventus' trend throughout the season. After that, Juventus was still in a curse, and the defense personnel were constantly injured and took turns to enter the medical room. Kalulu was suspended in this game, and Tudor had no choice.

gave Tudor too little time. He was unable to develop a variety of plans when he took over temporarily. Therefore, the three central defenders and the system with Yeldetz as the core of the offensive will not withstand wavering and change. Tudor completed the basic task he had assigned him, but he did not win many votes of confidence. The temptation of Antonio Conte leading Napoli to win the league championship last season was too great. The management led by Jontoli easily gave up the route he chose, and after detours, he had to go back to the old path he had before.

Perhaps Tudor misjudged the situation and thought that selfless love could move Juventus senior management. Under the existing contract, Tudor leads the team to qualify for the Champions League and will automatically trigger the term of renewal for one year, but Juventus still has the right to pay 1 million euros to terminate the contract directly. In order to be able to coach, Tudor accepted such a minimum living security clause. Now he consciously has some say. After the game, he started to negotiate conditions, "I can say that there will be a result soon. Please be a little patient. We will make a decision before the start of the Club World Cup. I never ask for anything, nor do I ask for anything. This is what I have always thought, and it is very natural. If a person wants to die of the Club World Cup, but next year is not a coach, the players will ask: 'What are you doing?' So it is right for everyone to sit down and make a decision together."

This is exactly the opposite of what Jontoli said before the game. The head of Juventus's competitive athletics made it clear that he made a decision after the Club World Cup, that is, he wanted Tudor to take the Club World Cup, but the Croatian coach obviously wanted to make sure that he would participate in the Club World Cup in the future, otherwise it would be meaningless to lead the team to the United States like this. Tudor's bargaining chips are that this season's Juventus has seen the chaos in club management, failed signings and the players' low ability. Even if Conte takes over, he will also face many problems such as poor defense and poor offense in the middle. Jontoli may not have expected Tudor to show up directly after the game. The Club World Cup will open in more than half a month. During this period, Juventus needs to have detailed discussions with Conte and Tudor to quickly establish goals and plans. Anyway, there is not much time left for Jontoly.
