Juventus show why they hired Sarri in beating Inter. PLUS: A
Sarri and Juve simply too good for Inter
So this is why Maurizio Sarri was brought in. Why Juventus embarked on that cultural and tactical 180-degree turn w88 mobile ios . Why Max Allegri was effectively shown the door after five years of success. Everything came together on Sunday night as Juve won away to Inter.
Sarri made some big calls -- Paulo Dybala ahead of Gonzalo Higuain, Federico Bernardeschi in the attacking midfield hole, Emre Can and Rodrigo Bentancur coming on to safeguard the three points -- and gave his Juve side the right tactical impetus. (Witness the 24-pass build-up to Higuain's game-winning goal.) The rest was about setting great players free to make their quality count, with Miralem Pjanic's metronomic point guard play, Dybala's run and strike and the two Ronaldo efforts: the first, crashing against the bar with raw violence, the other disallowed (correctly) after a give-and-go with Dybala.
When your opponents are more talented and well-coached, there's only so much you can do. Antonio Conte did it, which is why one Italian TV pundit was probably correct when he said "Sarri won this game, but Conte didn't lose it." You need fight and desire, creativity and individuals to turn the tide in those circumstances. Conte's Inter has plenty of the first two but the latter two are pretty much trapped in the same man, Stefano Sensi, and he went off after 30 minutes due to injury. That's when the creative light went out and it left Inter relying on willpower alone. Not enough w88 line .

It remains remarkable how Dybala and Higuain, two guys who weren't even supposed to be here, should prove to be so important to Juve. And equally, that a guy like Sarri -- a tactical nerd supposedly not exactly well-versed in man-management -- is getting production out of both of them and even rotating them. In fact, speaking of guys who were not supposed to stick around, you can make the same point about Blaise Matuidi and Sami Khedira, both of whom are proving to be invaluable in Sarri's set-up. At the back, penalty aside, Matthijs de Ligt continues his journey: it remains a bumpy ride but it certainly helps to grow on a winning team rather than one in turmoil.
As for Inter, their last two games pitted them against superior opponents stacked with superstars (Barcelona and Juventus). It's a process for them too and it's also a discovery of their squad. Romelu Lukaku still hasn't found his feet, not for lack of trying either. It's the sort of thing Conte can fix on the training ground. Diego Godin in the back three, especially as a wide center-back, isn't convincing. And for a team that plays two up front, they probably could have used a serviceable fourth striker rather than forcing Matteo Politano (nice player, but more of a winger) to adapt. Still, there's plenty to go. And these are the sort of games that tell you a lot about yourself.
How Wolves cracked the code to stifling Man CityThe FC guys break down how Wolves shut down a potent Manchester City attack in their 2-0 upset at the Etihad.
It had been flagged up by plenty, including yours truly. For Manchester City, letting Vincent Kompany leave without replacing him would most likely be fine unless something bad happened. Well, that happened with the injuries to Aymeric Laporte and John Stones. And now chickens are coming home to roost because there is no insurance policy w88 ดีไหม .
Both Fernandinho and Nicolas Otamendi started each of the past five games that matter (i.e. Champions League and Premier League). They played every minute, except for the last half-hour against Watford, when Otamendi came off because they were up 7-0. It's not just their limitations -- Fernandinho is 34 and not a central defender, Otamendi is 31, not the second coming of Walter Samuel and started only 14 league games last year -- it's also about how Pep Guardiola tried to mask them. It's not gone well.
You knew what was going to happen when Wolves came to visit because we've seen it before from Nuno Espirito Santo on the road against Big Six sides. He'd sit tight, create human density in front of Rui Patricio and try to hit on the counter: the inclusion of Adama Traore was as obvious a "tell" as you're going to get. Wolves did it brilliantly. In the first half alone, they had four dangerous counterattacks, each of which could (should?) have led to a goal.
