From 2001-02 to 2007-08, Lyon created an unprecedented seven consecutive Liga championships, which seemed to people at that time to be an insurmountable obstacle in the five leagues, but just more than a decade later, the "unprecedented" prefix was frequently used. Juventus' new Serie A record and Bayern Munich's new Bundesliga record have become the retention programs of every season, perhaps late, but not absent.

It the Bundesliga, Bayern was once in trouble, ranking only seventh in the league, and finally made the salad plate in the bag again with a complete victory in the rematch.

On the Serie A side, Juve forced Lazio into a desperate situation, which also opened the gap after the epidemic, allowing the Bianconeri to hold the throne of Apenning.

No matter how unconvinced the competitors are, they always return to the familiar track.

In fact, it has been an extremely difficult season for Juve.

Team coach Surrey has been questioned from the moment he took office because of his identity as a "former Naples coach", and his "Surrey" offensive football style is incompatible with Juve's traditional solid defensive tone. Coupled with the fact that the team is full of stars, both the team style and management style are very different from those when Naples was in charge, and a tone of discord runs through all the time.

In the sacred derby in November last year, Cristiano Ronaldo went straight into the dressing room because he was replaced early, which once ignited talk in the media about discord between generals and generals. Coupled with the fact that the team has always failed to find a stable way to play, the voice of pessimism surged one after another. after a series of advance and retreat, Surrey finally began to choose to compromise.

Idealistic attacking football is no longer his stubborn pursuit, the result of victory is the ultimate goal.

As a result, in people's eyes, Surrey's Juve have become "no tactics", but often rely on the personal ability of the stars to solve problems.

In November last year, Dibala was the hero of Juve's two-line advance. Cristiano Ronaldo began to take over the position of key man in December, equaling the record of 11 consecutive Serie A goals and setting new scoring records. by the time of winning the championship, the president had scored 31 goals, just one step away from Juventus' top scorer of the Serie A season.

When Cristiano Ronaldo and Dibala are in good shape, Juve have no problem winning the game, and when the two are in trouble, the Bianconeri are often able to escape with a strong whole, but the dominance of the team has greatly declined-this season, they conceded 16 points in the lead and 38 goals were the lowest since Wang Chaozhu-eight goals more than the "bad defense" of 30 goals last season.

As a result, this season has also become the most difficult season for Juve to monopolize Serie A. before the league shutdown, Lazio were unbeaten in 21 rounds and grabbed Juve by one point.

Without the impact of the epidemic, it is difficult to determine the ownership of the Serie A champion, because after the rematch, Juve's disadvantage of multi-front combat no longer exists, and the five substitutions greatly enhance the advantage of their bench depth, when everyone is affected by the intensive schedule. The Bianconeri, which are less affected than their competitors, have the advantage of turning things around.

This kind of Serie A title competition looks more like a large-scale comity match. If Juve lose three rounds, Lazio will be able to win four rounds, and Inter will also pull hip frequently, which makes the championship struggle completely different from that of the first half of the season. it has become a playful conversation among fans of other leagues after dinner.

However, people can not ignore that this is a special period. Serie An is also the hardest hit area of the COVID-19 epidemic. It is not easy to survive the difficulties and laugh at the end of the day.

Of course, there are problems with Juve. Surrey has not been able to find a suitable style of play all season and the team needs a new round of changes on all three fronts.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Di Barra are both old, the BBC combination in the backcourt is no longer stable after the disintegration, and the midfield configuration does not match the ambitions of a top club, even more than the situation faced in the summer of 2015, when Allegri stabilized the monarchy with excellent adjustment ability, and this time Sally will face a bigger test.

Yes, for Juve, the Serie A title has become standard in recent years, the loss of the Italian Cup and the Super Cup is a real wake-up call, coupled with the adverse situation faced in the knockout stages of the Champions League, the Serie An overlord should plan ahead.

However, at the moment, the Bianconeri can enjoy the joy of winning the championship. after all, when Roghani and Dibala all suffered from COVID-19, no one could have expected that the Serie A title would bring hope again.

After a season, the plot of the story remains the same, Juve is still the king of Serie A, but a revolution is brewing in Apenning Peninsula. Are you ready for the Bianconeri in the tide of the times?
