You can’t let Capello vent his anger on yourself! This was the consensus of all Florence players at that time.
Therefore, just when Manchester United players saw a glimmer of victory because of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s goal, Ronaldo scored twice in the game and scored Florence’s fourth goal in the 73rd minute.
Ferguson sighed when he saw the aliens start from the middle circle of the stadium and pass Giggs, Keane, Irwin, Parrister and goalkeeper Schmeichel in succession to send the ball into the goal.
The stubborn Scottish red-nosed old man had a premonition when he saw Ronaldo at the back of the goal. I’m afraid Manchester United is at the end of this Champions League …
Chapter 432 Chaos Blue Eagle
Although there are some ominous premonitions, Ferguson obviously won’t give up the pursuit of victory because of these illusory things. After Ronaldo scored a hat trick, Ferguson made a substitution adjustment. He changed nicky butt to Scholes and planned to strengthen the midfield defense, while liberating winger Giggs and Beckham to support strikers cantona and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
On the other hand, Capello didn’t sit on the coach’s bench because he was ahead of the score. He also made corresponding substitutions for Ferguson’s adjustment.
Glenshire field strengthens Florence’s right-wing offensive power, and he is a perfect Ronaldo; Then he scored a goal in the game, and Inzaghi was also replaced. The substitute was his good friend vieri.
In this way, Florence and Manchester United have turned their own style of play into two wings. Qi Fei and the two sides are very happy to fight on two wings. Roberto Carlos has never lost his style against Beckham and Gary Weill. Renshire has shown a breakthrough level that is not inferior to Giggs. He and Zambrotta have joined forces to suppress Manchester United’s left offensive.
In the end, Florence beat Premier League champion Manchester United 4-2 at Old Trafford with a hat-trick from Ronaldo, and won the first leg of the quarter-finals away from home, which has already passed the threshold of the semi-finals of the Champions League.
At the same time, in another game, Juventus held a handshake with Atletico Madrid, the bedsheet army, at Calderon Stadium, and also got a slight chance to advance to the semi-finals of the Champions League.
After winning the first leg against Manchester United, the Fiorentina players immediately went to Rome to prepare for the 22nd Serie A match against Lazio.
Because Zeman’s performance in leading the team in the first half of the season was extremely poor, and at the same time, he complained in public about the big boss cragnotti’s interference in the team’s affairs. Therefore, after the arrival of the winter break, the Czech coach unexpectedly received a paper of dismissal notice from the top management of the Blue Eagle and left Lazio with a cancellation fee.
The temporary coach who replaced Zeman as Lazio was an assistant coach of the first team. When Zhuang Ge found that he had no impression of this guy at all, he immediately determined that this fellow was actually playing soy sauce.
Zhuang Ge thought it was right that the temporary Lazio coach was told by the club boss cragnotti when he re-signed the contract with Lazio that he only wanted to ensure that Lazio could guarantee a place in Europe at the end of the season.
Cragnotti, the coach candidate of Lazio last season, has repeatedly stated that he has found a very good coach for the team after Zeman’s departure. This coach can completely replace Zeman’s departure and lead the Biancocelesti to continue to climb the peak.
However, cragnotti can change the fact that Lazio will be led by a "temporary worker" for the rest of this season, even if he talks about the flowers.
Zhuang Ge felt that cragnotti must have had a short circuit when he was calming the fans’ emotions. He even announced in public that the team had found a new coach, which made the temporary coach who led the team to play the game feel embarrassed.
Generally speaking, whether a head coach is a temporary worker is going to be dismissed from the team, then he must not stay in this club any longer. This is the rule of football circle. No head coach wants to see himself working in the team before.
Since no matter whether the grades are good or bad, it is the result of leaving, how binding can cragnotti’s request be?
In this game, Capello sent many substitutes Stam, fortunato, angloma and other substitutes or main players to get the starting opportunity. Rui Costa and djorkaeff were responsible for controlling the rhythm of the game. vieri and Batty formed the twin towers in front. Obviously, Capello intends to use the impact and strength of two centers to kill Lazio in the simplest and rudest way.
On the other hand, in the home game against Lazio, it is obvious that the temporary coach, the Biancocelesti, is not fully aware of the team’s control and understanding. Although Protti, a parallel striker who is not in line with signori, was taken from the main lineup and changed the aggressive 433 in Zeman’s era into the offensive and defensive balance 442, it is really difficult for players who are used to storming Lazio to adapt to a different set of tactics in less than two months.
The front line is composed of signori and pierluigi casiraghi, Devid, Fossey, Marcolin and Australian national team captain Okun. However, the defense line changes little from left to right, followed by Favali, Grandoni, Cha Mote and Gro. The goalkeeper is still a veteran Mache giani. Lazio coach obviously hopes to have a tacit understanding of defenders to stabilize the team’s defense.
However, after playing offensive football in Zeman Banner for two and a half years, do Lazio people still remember what Italian chain defense is like?
On March 2 nd, Florence came to the Olympic Stadium in Rome with a great victory in the Champions League, and Lazio, which has home court advantage, is still in a painful period of transformation. The result of the game is naturally imaginable
Although Lazio players struggled to defend Batty and vieri in the penalty area every game, they were pulled out by cragnotti, and they finally seized the opportunity by Florence.
In the 70th minute of the game, djorkaeff made an unexpected ball on the left side of the court, and the ball flew to the center of the restricted area. vieri jumped high from the crowd and pushed the ball into the gate guarded by Mache giani!
Florence also beat Lazio one-to-one with vieri’s goal, continuing its unbeaten record since Serie A last season.
Because the next week was a contest between four teams in the second half of the Champions League, the Fiorentina players finally got a day off from Capello to relieve the fatigue caused by continuous battles.
On March 9th, Florence took a seat at Frankie Stadium to face Bologna, a team that had no special features except center Kent Anderson. Capello sent a mix of some main players and substitutes to easily get rid of his opponent.
Two goals each from Inzaghi and vieri helped Florence score three points at home.
Chapter 433 Fight Manchester United again ()
After the match against Bologna, the Fiorentina players didn’t get a chance to have a rest this time because they were going to have a very painful schedule.
On March 12th, the second leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-final Florence will face the menacing Manchester United at home, and both sides will have a Champions League semi-final seat and have a fierce fight.
After the match with Manchester United, it was a headache for Florence to receive three league opponents in a row-in the 24th round, she challenged her enemy Sacchi to coach AC Milan, in the 25th round, she played against talented goalkeeper Buffon Palma at home, and in the 26th round, Florence will face another team from Milan City, that is, Hodgson led the Nerazzurri Inter Milan.
And if Florence beat Manchester United to advance to the Champions League semi-final, then Florence will play the first leg of the Champions League semi-final against Juventus and Atletico Madrid in the week after the end of the 26th round …
In less than a month, it’s really lucky to face five strong rivals Florence in a row.
However, complaining is obviously helpful to solve these problems, and Capello is only talking about this situation verbally. More often, he still spends his time on team training and studying opponents.
