Chapter 274 Half Championship (Happy New Year’s Day!)

After taking a one-goal lead, Bruno was obviously not satisfied yet. He knows very well that 1:0 is not a safe score, and Udinese has enough ability to continue scoring goals.

Facts have proved that when the goal breaks the deadlock, it is difficult for Atlanta to focus on defense.

After the game restarted, Atlanta began to strengthen its offense, but had no chance and was forced to pass back and reorganize.

When the football returned to the midfield, Di Natale immediately pressed forward and actively participated in the press. The first one to bear the brunt was Cigarini.

Just after receiving the ball from the central defender, Cigarini was immediately pressured by Di Natale before he could stop. After turning around to protect the ball, he passed it lightly to his teammate Dutchman De Jongen who was raising his hand for the ball.

De Jongen faced the direction of the ball and did not notice Bruno approaching quietly behind him. By the time the Atlanta players realized the danger and issued a warning, Bruno had already taken the lead.

The Dutch midfielder is 1.85 meters tall. Although he is about the same height as Bruno, his flexibility is far inferior. He originally wanted to stop the ball and face the attacking direction directly, but he did not expect Bruno to directly stop the ball when he stopped it. Steal the ball with your foot. The football hit Bruno's left foot and bounced behind the Atlanta midfielder, resulting in a frontcourt steal.

"Atlanta's central defender rushed forward, but Bruno still didn't slow down. The man and the ball passed..."

"Beautiful! Bruno rushed into the penalty area with the ball, faced the goalkeeper directly...crossed the ball!"

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!!!"

"Only two minutes have passed since the last goal, and Udinese has scored another victory!"

"Goal from Taylor. But the credit for this goal must be recorded in Bruno's name. After successfully intercepting the ball near the center line, he took the ball all the way for forty meters, broke through Atlanta's defense, and faced With the goal in hand, he chose to pass the ball across to Taylor who was in a better position!"

"Under the circumstances, most players would choose to shoot by themselves, but Bruno selflessly passed the ball to his teammates!"

"In injury time in the first half, Udinese scored another goal from a corner kick!"

"3:0! Udinese further expanded the score."

"We can clearly feel the change in the mental outlook of Udinese players, they look more positive."

"Atalanta made too many mistakes in passing and receiving. Facing Udinese's pressing pressure in the midfield and frontcourt, it was indeed very passive."

"Di Natale ran to Bruno and picked him up. He should really thank his teammates."

"This is the Udinese captain's 8th league goal this season. He has scored 236 goals in Serie A in his career, only 9 goals less than Totti. With Di Natale's scoring efficiency, he is very It is possible to catch up with Totti this season. The Roma captain has rarely appeared this season.

………………

Three days later, Udinese visited newly promoted Carpi.

卡尔皮目前排名倒数第二位，18轮的战绩仅为2胜3平13负，11个积分仅比副班长维罗纳多了3分，保级形势岌岌可危。

With Udinese's strength, it should have been easy to win the game, but Udinese encountered a tough battle in the away game.

In the 26th minute, Bianco made a cross to create a murderous opportunity. Pascudi grabbed a header and hit the lower left corner. Carpi led Udinese 1:0.

3: 2!

Udinese beat their opponent!

Participating in all the team's goals in two consecutive games, Bruno continued his outstanding performance in 2016.

………………

One day later, the 19th round of Serie A ended.

Udinese undoubtedly won the half-time championship. They achieved a record of 19 wins and 17 losses in 2 games and topped the standings with 51 points.

However, the team ranked second in the standings after half-time was beyond everyone's surprise, but it can also be said that it was within everyone's expectations.

The second ranked team is none other than the Bianconeri Juventus.

Yes, you read that right, it was the Juventus team that created the worst start in team history!

It is also the Juventus team that only achieved 1 win, 2 draws and 3 losses in the first six rounds, only scored 5 points, ranked 15th in the standings, and almost fell into the relegation zone!

In the first six rounds, Uncle Jon's team only defeated the weak Genoa, and the remaining games were either draws or losses.

At that time, many people questioned that Uncle Jon could only play superstar football, and his tactical style was aging and lacked flexibility. They ridiculed that he could only stir-fry one dish and could not cook if the ingredients were changed.

However, starting from the 3:1 victory over Bologna at home in the seventh round, Uncle Juventus's lineup basically took shape and began to show its great strength. In the eighth round, it drew 0:0 with Inter Milan at San Siro. In the ninth round, In the second round, they defeated Atlanta 2-0 at home.

In the tenth round, Juventus lost 0:1 to Sassuolo in an away game. However, since then, Juventus has never lost points. Turin, Empoli, AC Milan, Palermo, Lazio, Fiorentina, Carpi, Verona and Sampdoria were all defeated by the old lady. The Bianconeri won nine consecutive victories and their points soared to 39 points. The league ranking also went all the way and rose to second place in the standings!

Even since the seventh round of the league, Juventus has been the team with the most points in Serie A. In thirteen rounds, they have scored 34 points, one point more than Udinese, which scored 33 points.

However, due to poor performance in the first six rounds, the point gap between Juventus and Udinese in the standings is still a bit wide, reaching 12 points.

However, considering Juventus' strong overall strength, they are undoubtedly Udinese's biggest league title rival.

………………

Not only did Udinese feel a strong challenge from Juventus in the Serie A standings, Bruno was also challenged in the Serie A scorer list.

Naples' Argentinian striker, Higuain, nicknamed the Little Smoking Gun, scored twice in Naples' away game against Frosinoni in the 19th round of Serie A. His league goals rose to 18, only less than top-ranked Bruno. Just 3 goals.

The famous Italian media "Corriere dello Sport" believes that the Argentinian striker who loves poaching corners in love has also begun to poach Bruno's corners in the Serie A scorer list.

Yes, according to Italian media reports, the Argentine striker has the same hobby as Cao Mengde, a celebrity in Chinese history. Gago’s girlfriend Luciana and Parma goalkeeper Mirante’s girlfriend Chiara have all been hooked up by Higuain. , Mirante and Higuain almost had a fight in the game. And just a year ago, he seduced Belén, known as the godmother of Serie A, causing this charming goddess to divorce.
