The Era of Emerald

Watching Fiorentina secure the league championship seven rounds ahead of schedule, and at the same time complete the feat of three consecutive league championships, Juventus is very unhappy about this, but no matter how unhappy they are, they can't change this situation. Tried to regain ground in the second round of the final.

However, what the Bianconeri have to face at this time is not only the second round of the Champions League semi-final against Fiorentina, they will now continue to work hard for their ranking in the league.After an unexpected loss to Udinese at home, Ancelotti's Parma surpassed Juventus in the standings and ranked No.2 in the standings with a slight advantage of one point!

Such a result completely panicked Juventus, because according to UEFA’s UEFA Champions League expansion plan for next season announced last month, although the Serie A, which ranks first in the European War in terms of total points, has an increased number of places to participate in the Champions League There are four teams, but only the top two in the league have the qualifications to directly advance to the Champions League next season. Both No.3 and No.4 have to start from the qualifying rounds.This is simply unacceptable for Juventus, which has always regarded itself as a giant in Serie A.

It's not that Fox Mo hasn't considered using the influence of the Agnelli family to influence referees for profit, but UEFA's recent referee rectification campaign has made almost all referees afraid to act rashly, for fear of being regarded as a typical example The case has been used as an example to others.

Therefore, Mo Laohu, who was unable to play tricks on the referee, had to tell the head coach Lippi to let him work hard to get back to the second place in the standings, otherwise he would have no way to persuade other senior executives of the club to keep Silver Fox's job.

……

After winning the league championship ahead of schedule, Fiorentina has only one event left to win the European Champions Cup this season.Although there are still two records in the league waiting for Fiorentina to break, but Capello doesn't really care about these things.

Whoever made the original records was created by himself. Whether he can break these records or not, his name will be written in the history of Serie A.

And Capello's relaxed attitude also unknowingly affected the Fiorentina players, allowing them to face the upcoming league with a relatively relaxed attitude.

On April 4, Fiorentina ushered in Roma, the red wolf who had just undergone a pre-match coaching change, at home.The old Sensi's choice is still so unexpected. After dismissing the Argentine coach Carlos Bianchi, who had great conflicts with Giannini and Totti, the two Roman princes, he actually hired him for the first half of the season. The Czech Zeman, who is still coaching with his rival in the same city, will be the head coach of the Roma team!

On the other hand, because the big boss Craniotti intervened in the team's transfer work without authorization last summer, the cards in his hand could not realize his tactical thinking, which led to a sharp decline in the team's record, and Zeman was kicked out of Lazio. , after receiving the invitation from old Sensi, he just hesitated for a while and signed his name on the contract.

The Czechs want to tell the former boss Craniotti with the facts under the eyes of Lazio that it was a complete mistake to drive him away!

After Zeman came to Rome, he immediately made some adjustments to the Red Wolves' lineup. The first to bear the brunt was Francisco Totti, who was not reused under Bianchi's account.

The Czechs identified Totti as the core of Roma's offense, allowing him to serve as the nine and a half on the field while also stuffing him into the South American striker that has been established for several years by Balbo and Fonseca, forming a set The brand-new trident, let him drive the attack of the Roman trident, and shoulder the important task of attacking Rome in the next game.

In the end, the Czech even handed over the captain's armband of the Roma team to the 20-year-old young man, which shows how much Zeman attaches importance to Totti.

And Totti, who was given high hopes by the Czechs, is also quite competitive. Wearing the captain's armband, with the support of Aldair, Zeman and Roma fans, he unified the team's locker room at the fastest speed and prepared to lead Roma. Get out of the league's four rounds of invincibility.

Facing the menacing Red Wolves, Capello calmly dispatched a mixed lineup of main players and substitutes.

On Fiorentina's starting list, the configuration of the goalkeeper and the defense is exactly the same as the previous game, and no changes have been made. On the one hand, it is because Roma's offensive speed is sharp enough, so Capello did not dare to let Stanley, who turned slowly. Tamm and Wiljo Ward played; on the other hand, because Fiorentina will have a Champions League match with Juventus three days later, sending too many main players will inevitably affect this crucial game.

The biggest change is in the midfield. The three local midfielders of Tomasi, Zanetti and Di Biagio have built a line of defense in front of the team's defenders.In order to disrupt the offensive rhythm of the Roma team, Capello sent the same young Tomasi to implement a 360-degree all-round defense against Totti. The reason why he did not send the stronger Davis was mainly because Capello I think that with Totti's current strength, it is enough to send Tomasi to deal with it. If Davis is played, it will affect his next arrangements, which is not worth the candle.In front of the three defensive midfielders, Rui Costa became the only playmaker on the Fiorentina field. Capello is actually bullying Roma without a top midfielder who can defend the Portuguese on the field, otherwise He prefers to play Effenberg and Redondo, who are in a deeper position.

As for the front line, Batty and Inzaghi became the starters, Cruz and Glenshire were on standby on the bench at any time, neither Ronaldo nor Vieri, whose status in the team has risen sharply this season, did not enter the squad for the game. Fabio Capello is obviously doing this to save energy for the Champions League game in the middle of the week.

There is nothing worth mentioning about the process of the game. Although it has been less than a week since he became the head coach of Rome, Zeman has begun to gradually imprint his coaching style on the Red Wolves.

The new trident composed of Totti, Fonseca and Balbo is indeed very strong offensively. Even Capello's formation of three defensive midfielders, which is extremely defensive, failed to stop the Romans from scoring. Footsteps: No. In the 17th minute, the gate guarded by Toldo was broken by Totti with a curved ball from the edge of the penalty area. Roma led Fiorentina [-]-[-] in the away game.

Although the offense has improved a lot, Zeman's team is still as bad as ever defensively, and Fiorentina's players proved this to Zeman not long after conceding the ball.

No.20 In the second minute, Costa got rid of the Roma player who was grabbing the ball, and then sent a through ball. The ball slipped past Aldair and came to the feet of Inzaghi, who successfully countered offside. Of course, Pipo would not waste this opportunity to score, and a clever shot helped Fiorentina equalize the score.

No. 703 minutes, the Roma players became a little impatient after being unable to attack for a long time, but Costa seized the opportunity again. He and Glenshire, who replaced Inzaghi, played a classic game. With a direct pass and an oblique thrust, the Dane who won the single-handed ball gave full play to his speed advantage. He sprinted all the way and "brought" the ball into the goal of the Roma team, rewriting the game to [-]-[-]!

In the end, with the goals of Inzaghi and Glenshire, Fiorentina successfully reversed Rome at home and won a victory!
