From the man behind the football king to the football king

After a good start in the Champions League, Udinese continues to walk on the road to victory.

On the afternoon of September 21st, in the third round of Serie A, Udinese faced Naples at home. In the 70th minute of the game, Bruno took a free kick in the frontcourt and chose to pass the ball into the penalty area. Defender Danilo scored from close range. Udinese beat Napoli 1:0.

Three days later, on the evening of September 24, Serie A ushered in the fourth round of a double-match week. Udinese visited Rome to challenge Lazio at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.

The consecutive double matches in a week forced Guidolin to make extensive rotations, but Bruno still started.

In the 22nd minute, Lazio goalkeeper Marchese collided with Muriel. The young Colombian forward reacted quickly and quickly got up and pushed the empty goal with his left foot. However, Novareti, who was rushed by the horse, made a clearance on the goal line.

In the 26th minute, Bruno passed the ball to the right, Vidmont made a low ball and passed the ball. Taylor shot with his left foot in the penalty area and broke the net. Udinese led 1:0 in the away game.

Lazio had a ball possession rate of 71% throughout the game and took 22 shots, but in the end they were unable to break through Udinese's iron barrel formation.

The encirclement between him and Elneny was a layered defense. Elneny made a sneak attack from the front, causing Bruno to panic. He had a second attack from behind!

This is double insurance defense!

Bruno chose to shoot directly. The football did not pass the wall and was blocked by the wall.

The timing of the attack was well grasped!

"pretty!"

Bruno is naturally no stranger to the Basel midfielder who later joined Arsenal.

In the 45th minute, Bruno passed the ball and Di Natale scored twice to help Udinese take the lead.

The game started at the whistle of Slovenian referee Skomina.

However, Safaree seems to know the characteristics of Widmont very well and has already taken steps to intercept in advance.

Bruno controlled the football at his feet and prepared to challenge Safari.

Kanter came over to receive the ball. He didn't let the football stay at his feet and passed it directly to Bruno.

Elneny's kick swept away, and he himself rushed over because he threw too hard, staggering and almost falling.

After the game started, Basel launched a fierce attack on Udinese's goal amid almost crazy cheers from the home fans.

It turned out that when Safaree was about to steal the ball, Bruno tried to stop the ball with his left foot out of sight, but instead knocked the football, and the football reached his right foot.

Alan got the ball and faced the pressing of the Basel players. He immediately passed the football back. Guillerme got the ball and continued to pass the ball back. In this way, he passed the ball back all the way, slowly attracting the Basel defense line.

Safaree smiled, and Elneny was also slightly excited. He stole the ball from the feet of the European golden boy. The feeling was just different.

Bruno caught a glimpse of Elneny sneaking over from the corner of his eye. He used his knees to figure out what he was going to do, but he pretended not to notice the other party's intention.

"Foul!!!" shouted BBC commentator John Mortensen.

Bruno took the ball with his back, and behind him was Safaree, who after finishing defending Widmon, turned to defend him.

Falling behind at the start, Basel quickly adjusted their tactics and began to closely mark Bruno. Wherever he went, a Basel defender immediately followed him.

He took advantage of Bruno to put all his attention on Scheer and stretched out his foot to sweep the ball!

This time, Bruno dunked beautifully past Fabian Frei and then swept the ball wide.

As soon as Widmund took the ball, he was pressed by Basel left-back Safaree. The Swiss chose to pull the football back, and then suddenly pulled the ball and turned around, trying to bypass the opponent.

Basel's football market has always been good, and Basel's fans have always been rated as one of the most loyal fans in Europe. Usually the attendance rate of this stadium is at least about 70%, which is already a very good attendance rate.

Bruno has successfully turned around, and Safaree is now blocked behind him, but he cannot start because the latter is holding on to his jersey.

On October 1, Udinese rushed to Basel, Switzerland, to challenge Swiss Super League hegemon Basel as a guest in the second round of the Champions League group stage.

………………

Safaree was first surprised, then overjoyed, because he saw an opportunity to steal the ball.

However, their offense did not knock on Udinese's goal, but instead gave Udinese a chance.

On the last weekend of September, the fifth round of Serie A started one after another.

In the 84th minute, Bruno sent a precise through ball, and Cancelo hit the goal with his right foot. He not only scored the first goal in Serie A, but also helped Udinese lock the score at 4:2.

Udinese got off to a fantastic start in the 2nd minute of the game. Kante intercepted Basel's pass in his own half. Udinese launched a quick counterattack. Bruno made consecutive passes and cleverly passed behind Basel's defense. Di Natale successfully countered offside and scored the ball easily.

………………

The stadium, which can accommodate 42,500 people, was packed. Basel fans took the most direct actions to support their team in this life-and-death battle.

As for how strong Bruno's ability is, many teams, including Real Madrid, have used their failures to provide the best explanation.

In the 22nd minute, the visiting team took the lead to score. The young player Mauri, who played for Parma for the second time in his career, received Cassano's through ball and hit the goal with his right foot. Udinese fell behind 0:1.

Basel center Strehler near the center circle was overjoyed. He could already imagine that Bruno had the ball stolen. He raised his hand in front, indicating that after stealing the ball, he immediately counterattacked and passed the football to him.

This is the opportunity!

Immediately, Bruno spiked the ball again and pulled the football over, barely avoiding Safaree's steal from behind!

Safari was excited. He was already thinking about stealing the ball, quickly passing the football out, and launching a counterattack, but the next moment he found that the ball was missing!

However, due to Juventus' 3-0 victory over Cesena in this round, with the same record of 3 wins and 1 draw, they surpassed Udinese and rose to second place in the standings with a goal difference advantage. Udinese retreated. Ranked third.

At this time, Bruno raised his left foot and tried to stop the football again.

But just 6 minutes later, Di Natale received a header from Badu and hit the goalkeeper with his right foot to equalize the score.

Then, Udinese reorganized their attack.

………………

In this game, Guidolin chose to continue to believe in the old captain Di Natale, and this time Di Natale did not disappoint Guidolin again. Within two minutes of the opening, he scored a goal to help Uruguay. Dines takes the lead.

If the second goal was conceded so quickly, Basel's game would be over.

Seeing that the breakthrough was unsuccessful, Widmon had no choice but to pass the football back.

During this match, a special fan appeared in the stands of St. Jacobs Park, and that was the tennis king Roger Federer. The tennis king who was born in Basel has always been a die-hard supporter of Basel.

………………

Double-teaming Bruno all the time, this is the way the Basel coach rearranged to defend Bruno.

St Jacob's Park Stadium.

In the 58th minute, Bruno broke the net with his right foot after receiving a pass from Widmund, and Udinese took the lead again 3:2.

As he will travel to Switzerland in the middle of next week for a crucial qualifying battle with Basel, Guidolin continues to implement the rotation strategy. But at home, Udinese, who had won consecutive victories, once again won a big victory.

Then, everyone saw that when Elneny swept his foot over, Bruno leaned back, held Safaree on his back, pulled the football towards the inside of his body with his right foot, and then lightly lifted the football with his toes. Jumped slightly.

At this time, Elneny sneaked over from the side to help Safari defend Bruno.

Eight minutes into the game, Bruno received a pass from Alan. He stopped the ball with his chest and was about to turn around. He was fiercely hit diagonally by Basel's center back Fabian Scheer, knocking him to the ground. .

When Bruno is disturbed by Elneny, he will take action immediately!

Safaree wrapped one hand around Bruno's arm and put the other hand on Bruno's back. At the same time, he stretched out a leg from Bruno's back, intending to poke the football away when Bruno stopped the ball.

The whole action was done in one go, as if he had already known that Safaree would steal the ball from behind!

Immediately afterwards, Bruno held Safaree behind him with one hand, pulled the ball with the inside of his right foot, and his body quickly turned in the direction of the football!

Safari was shocked!

He didn't expect Bruno to avoid his stolen ball with such dexterity under such circumstances, and even wanted to complete the turn after pulling the ball!

He must not be allowed to turn around successfully!

In desperation, Safaree directly grabbed Bruno's jersey.

In the 3rd minute of stoppage time in the first half, Mauri was brought down by Vidmon in the penalty area. The referee showed the latter a yellow card and awarded a penalty kick. Cassano stood in front of the penalty spot and hit a spoon with his right foot. The ball brought the score back to a tie again.

Therefore, Saafari knew very well that Bruno must not be allowed to get rid of it, otherwise Basel's goal would be in danger.

You know, Udinese is pressing heavily at this time, and the backcourt is very empty. Once the ball is stolen, it is a good opportunity to counterattack!

………………

In the eyes of Basel, Real Madrid, the strongest team in this group, has undoubtedly occupied a qualifying spot. If they want to advance to the knockout rounds, the two-leg match against Udinese will be very crucial, so they are in a strong position in this game. must.

In the 77th minute, Muriel, who had just come on as a substitute for Di Natale, was flagrantly fouled by Acqua in the backcourt. The referee directly sent off the latter with a red card.

Udinese's free kick in the frontcourt.

Bruno leaned forward suddenly, exerting force on his waist and abdomen, trying to get rid of Safaree's pull.

In this case, Safaree's pulling was very obvious, and the referee Skomina had already put the whistle in his mouth and was about to blow the foul whistle.
