The Era of Emerald

PS1: The update on Saturday was delivered a little late. I hope that readers will not pay too much attention to the update time, and I promise not to stop updating...

PS2: Let me talk about the book friend group here. The group numbers are three, seven, zero, five, four, nine, nine, one, nine. The verified answer is NTR Knight, um, that's it.

After defeating Sampdoria with two goals without bloodshed at home, Fiorentina's main players, who got a week's rest, ushered in their last Serie A game in 12 on December 21.Their opponent is Udinese, who is working hard to qualify for the European War.

As a club that relies on reselling players to earn transfer price difference and obtain operating funds from it, Udinese's starting path can be said to be a model for all small and medium clubs.But at the same time, it is precisely because of their way of operating that it is difficult for Udinese to guarantee the stability of their performance, and they will often sell the players they have trained at a high price after one or two seasons of amazing performance , in exchange for the liquidity that allows them to continue to grow.

However, this season's Udinese is obviously not in the stage of renewal.Under the leadership of head coach Cosmi, Wuji, with two young players, Pingqi and Di Michele, is currently ranked No.8 in the standings, just hovering on the edge of the European theater.

Although due to Zhuang Mingge's relationship, Udinese in this life did not get the two generals Di Natale and De Sanctis, but for Wuji, who is good at discovering and cultivating talents, this is obviously not a problem. .Under the leadership of Manuel Gerolin, Paolo Marino, Carnevale and Barbardieu, Udinese has dug a group of good seedlings from all over the world, and through this The careful cultivation of several seasons has allowed them to grow up.Now, Marino and the others just wait for these players to become famous as soon as possible, and then they can sit in the office and count their money happily.

Therefore, although the current Udinese team is not well-known or star-studded, it can be regarded as an upper-middle level in Serie A in terms of strength.With the state that Florence has shown in the recent period, it will take a lot of effort to successfully win this opponent at home.

This is also the case. Facing such a difficult opponent, the Fiorentina players, who obviously lacked rest time, were not very excited during the game, and their physical fitness and performance also became worse and worse with the passage of time and the deepening of the game. .

After all, even though the main players such as Pirlo, Vieri, and Nesta have had a whole week of rest before this, it is obviously just a drop in the bucket for them who have been traveling around the world for the previous month. recovery is rather limited.

Although for professional players, a week of rest is enough to restore their physical fitness to a higher level, but the mental exhaustion caused by continuous combat is not so easy to recover.Therefore, in this game, Florence's performance generally showed a trend of driving high and low.

This is why Fiorentina took the lead with Vieri's powerful volley only 6 minutes into the game, but they have been unable to further expand this advantage.Because the players will lose their strength the more they kick, and many tactical routines are difficult to display in this situation. Therefore, Udinese, who was extremely passive at the beginning of the game, was not beaten to death by Florence. It was enough time to adjust, and in the following time, he used his physical advantage to launch a fierce counterattack!

In the end, when the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the score on the big screen was fixed at [-]-[-]. Udinese relied on Di Michele to pick up a goal in the penalty area, and from Florence's eyelids A point was snatched from the bottom.

As a result, Fiorentina had to end their last game in 2003 with a draw.

Although they were tied by Udinese at home and failed to get the expected three points, the Fiorentina players did not show much annoyance and unwillingness because of this.In other words, after a month-long week of double matches, they don't have the energy and strength to think about these things now.Now they just want to go home and get a good night's sleep to relieve their physical and mental fatigue.

After the game, the Fiorentina team disbanded on the spot, and many players returned home as quickly as possible, preparing to have a wonderful Christmas holiday with their families or girlfriends.However, not everyone can enjoy such treatment, such as Vieri and Inzaghi who are about to participate in the first Serie A All-Star Game.

"Really, if I knew this would happen, I would tell the fans not to vote for me." Seeing Makelele and other teammates go to enjoy the holiday, but he has to prepare for the All-Star Game here, Vieri feels very Stomach pain, "I had already agreed with Canalis to go to Bali for vacation together this Christmas. Now it's good, because of this damn All-Star game, we must spend Christmas in Italy."

"Haha, Bobo, you'd better calm down." As Vieri's best friend, Da Inzaghi smiled and comforted him, "Although you can't go to Bali with Kanna for Christmas, but It’s nice to be able to earn a lot of extra money. And, having an All-Star Game MVP as a Christmas gift should be a very wonderful thing, right?”

To add here, in order to improve the enthusiasm of the players, the Italian Football Association announced that it will give corresponding bonuses to all players selected for the All-Star Game.As for the specific amount of the bonus, it must be finalized in accordance with the relevant regulations formulated by the Football Association.

Take Vieri as an example, if the Italian All-Star team wins the game and he wins the All-Star MVP after the game, then as a starter, he will get a huge bonus of about 100 million US dollars!Although this is only the theoretical maximum reward, even if he loses in the end, Vieri can get at least 30 US dollars.Such a huge sum of money is undoubtedly a huge temptation for Vieri.

"Well, Pipo, what you said is indeed very reasonable." For this friend's opinion, Vieri still valued it very much, "If I can get the best player in the All-Star Game, then the bonus alone will not be enough. It is enough to cover my expenses for this vacation. If everything goes well, maybe Canalis can agree to my marriage proposal during this vacation!"

"Ha, haha..." Seeing that Vieri actually had such expectations under his own comfort, Inzaghi could only smile dryly, swallowing the second half of the words he hadn't said yet. Time to blow your friend's confidence.

You know, in this All-Star Game, there is another Robert Baggio on their team who is about to retire...
