The Era of Emerald

Seeing that the referee was so determined, Sanchez had no choice but to give up arguing, and returned to the locker room step by step, leaving a lonely figure behind, which made countless Real Madrid supporters cry.

"Red card! It's actually a red card! Real Madrid is in big trouble now! Their captain and defensive backbone, Manuel Sanchez, was sent off by the referee Frisk!" Sanchez made a painful kill. The commentator of Sky TV did not expect such a thing to happen, "Although the nature of Sanchez's foul is quite bad, it is not enough to be shown a red card. This kind of foul outside the penalty area Tactical fouls of the nature of physical collisions are at most the level of a yellow card... It seems that today's post-match press conference was quite lively."

The main central defender on his side was sent off, and Heynckes naturally did not dare to let Real Madrid use a central defender to defend the attack of Florence's three forwards in the remaining time.After weighing the pros and cons, the German coach decided to replace Davor Suker and Mijatovic on the front line, and replaced two local players-center Morientes and defender Karanka. Raul partnered to the front line, and the latter was responsible for resisting the attack of the Fiorentina striker together with Hierro.

This is also Heynckes' helpless move. After Sanchez leaves the field, he must ensure the integrity of the defense line, and in this way, it is inevitable to make certain sacrifices in terms of offense.

In the case of fighting with one less man, it is naturally impossible for Real Madrid to organize an offense as before. Therefore, Morientes, who has a stronger impact and is younger, will have to compete with the young Davao Su Ke and Mijatovic are more suitable for the current situation.

At the same time, Capello also made substitution adjustments. Although the team doctor checked that Ronaldo's injuries were basically flawed, he can recover after a few days of rest without any sequelae.But just to be on the safe side, Capello still replaced the aliens and sent Rui Costa.

Capello's choice to replace Costa instead of a striker is mainly due to two factors: on the one hand, because Fiorentina lacks a good player to take the ball at close range, Rui's playing can just make up for it. One point; on the other hand, because after Ronaldo went off the field, Fiorentina with Vieri and Inzaghi was still guaranteed to score goals, but they lacked a player who could assist Effenberg for Inzaghi and Vieri. The hands of the people who transported the shells.Although Ze Roberto is also capable of completing this task, Capello still feels that the Portuguese with more experience and ability is more suitable.

After the two teams completed the substitutions, Fiorentina began to take the direct free kick scored by Ronaldo.

The candidate to take the free kick is undoubtedly Rui Costa, who just came off the bench. Effenberg and Redondo's set kicks are both average, so naturally they will not compete with the Portuguese for the right to take the free kick ; Although Roberto Carlos stepped into the hall of masters with the shocking free kick in the Four Nations Invitational Tournament, this kind of free kick at a closer distance is not suitable for his performance.

The Real Madrid players were on the move, while Effenberg and Vieri sneaked into the wall of Real Madrid players in an attempt.It was soon discovered that the abnormal Real Madrid players certainly could not allow these two "spies" to run into their own walls to make trouble, so a dispute broke out naturally.

Rui Costa stood quietly in front of the ball, waiting for Frisk to blow his whistle, while the Swedish referee was busy resolving the dispute caused by Effenberg and others, so he couldn't take care of it for a while The whistle is blowing.

In the end, under the mediation of the referee, Vieri and Effenberg were placed on the far side of the human wall. Although this position was still a bit dangerous for Ilgner, he could not express his objection anymore. I had to command my teammates to squeeze the space of Vieri and Effenberg as much as possible, so as to plug this loophole.

Frisk looked at the distance between the human wall and the ball, and after feeling that there was no problem, he blew the whistle in his mouth!

Rui Costa, who had been preparing for a long time, heard the whistle, and after a short run-up, he kicked the ball out with his right foot!

Seeing Costa took a free kick, Effenberg and Vieri immediately fell down on the spot in accordance with the original tactics!

Costa's free kick was controlled very precisely. The ball bypassed the wall of Real Madrid players and flew over the heads of Effenberg and Vieri. Running to the Real Madrid goal behind the wall!

Seeing this, Irgner immediately jumped up to save, trying to keep the ball out of the gate.But Costa's free kick not only has a large arc, but also is quite fast, and Ilgner's previous position was a little farther from the far post. These factors together will only lead to one result, That is……

"Goooooal! Goal scored! Five to three! The Fiorentina tenaciously tied the total score to six to six!" The commentator shouted, "Costa scored a beautiful direct free kick! He and The exquisite cooperation between the teammates made the wall that Real Madrid carefully built collapsed!"

"Not counting stoppage time, there are still 15 minutes before the end of the game! After a brief period of despair, Fiorentina finally regained hope of advancing to the Champions League final!"

"Although Real Madrid still has the advantage of scoring more away goals, it is still a big question mark whether Real Madrid's poor defensive quality can withstand the devastation of Fiorentina players when there is one less player in the game." A cautious commentator, Rijkaard is obviously more optimistic about Fiorentina, "Although Fiorentina conceded three goals in this game, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is not Fiorentina's real defensive strength at all, otherwise Real Madrid's counterattack would not be so easy. Break through Florence's defenses..."

"Well, Frank, you are right. If Real Madrid hadn't won [-]-[-] in the first round, given the state of Fiorentina's game, Real Madrid's loss is basically a certainty." The commentator also expressed Rijkaard's analysis. Agree, "You see, the Fiorentina players did not celebrate the goal on the sidelines, but quickly retreated to their own half to wait for the kick-off. Effenberg even ran to the Real Madrid gate to pick up the ball. It seemed that he wanted to Get the game back on as soon as possible..."

While Rijkaard was talking to the commentator, Effenberg, Vieri and others who ran back to the midfield with the football in their arms said: "Cheer up! The game isn't over yet! It's not time to relax yet! Fiorentina need goals! More goals!"
