With the increase of age, baresi’s reaction speed inevitably slipped. This time, he was a beat slower. When baresi turned around, Ronaldo had accelerated from his side and rushed with the ball, and then immediately picked the ball into the penalty area with his right foot!
Follow up in the middle of the road. batistuta jumped high and forced desailly to throw his head and attack the goal. However, although desailly was suppressed by the Argentines, he continued to make small movements in Batty, which prevented batistuta from heading the ball with too much strength. Old Rossi jumped up and struggled to hold the ball out of the bottom line!
Less than ten minutes into the game, the two teams each got a good chance to score!
Chapter 26 Italian Cup Semifinal (3)
Then djorkaeff took the corner kick and effenberg won the first place. However, in desailly, the Germans didn’t have the top power. The ball was easily saved by Rossi.
After AC Milan scored a goal, Florence immediately fought back. They launched two consecutive charges at the home team gate. Although it was an away game, Florence’s excellent record and high winning rate against AC Milan and other strong teams for more than a year gave Viola players great confidence.
Only with enough confidence and confidence can Florence dare to play against Maimang at the San Siro home team. Although there are also some games in which the more goals are scored away from home, the more favorable it will be for Florence to advance to the Italian Cup final. However, looking at the whole Serie A, Florence also has the resources and strength to play against AC Milan at the San Siro Stadium.
Of course, unless Zeman leads Lazio, this team will not leave except attacking …
Capello, who looked aggressive and fearless, could not help but hesitate, but he quickly dispelled this doubt because he knew that even if the team turned to defense and faced Florence’s attack, AC Milan would never be able to hold on now.
What’s the point of defensive counter-attack tactics if you can’t defend the opponent’s attack?
With this in mind, Capello strengthened his confidence in playing against his opponent at home. He got up and walked to the edge of the stadium and made a gesture to the Milan players-continue to attack! Attack and let the opponent know who is the owner of this stadium!
After seeing Capello’s gesture, AC Milan players immediately attacked Florence at half-time. Recently, they are really in good shape. The five-game winning streak in the league has accumulated confidence and state so that they will not be suppressed by Florence so easily.
In the eleventh minute, savicevic created an Italian ball 24 meters away from the goal through his own breakthrough in the middle. Both players, Bo Ban and albertini, had good footwork. In front of the ball, albertini, who had better Italian ball skills, finally finished the shot. Unfortunately, he kicked the ball and it was a little higher. The ball rubbed the goal crossbar and flew out of the bottom line.
Florence is naturally not to be outdone. A minute later, djorkaeff took the ball in the middle of the road and gave it back to effenberg behind him. The Germans quickly distributed it to Lana on the left.
Lana took two steps forward and found that no one was defending himself. He looked up and observed the position of a goal and took a long shot directly from 30 meters away!
Although the competitive state has been quite slippery, Rossi still relies on his rich experience in the game to judge the flight route of the ball for the first time. This level of long-range shooting is not too difficult for Rossi, and it can be easily saved if he is in the right position.
However, just as the ball was about to fly into the penalty area, desailly lifted his foot and touched a ball, which suddenly changed the direction of the long shot and pointed to the left corner of the goal!
Rosie, who was in a good position, was surprised and rushed to the flight path of the ball and stretched her arms as far as possible. Fortunately, Rosie had a good wingspan and a height of 1.94 meters, which made her fail to respond first. He saved the ball from the bottom line with a quick side dive and also won Florence the second corner of the game.
However, this corner kick did not pose any threat to Milan’s goal. This time, the French penalty corner kick did not grasp the direction and flew directly behind the goal …
After a long-range shot from Lana on the left tested a Rossi nerve, Florence quickly launched an attack from the right and pulled it to the right. The aliens played ball continuously and swayed Donadoni and albertini, then rushed into the hinterland of AC Milan to face desailly and sent a ball to catch it. batistuta turned around and volleyed the ball slightly off the right column.
"Only fifteen minutes after the game, Florence has finished the four-legged shot. Although the home team AC Milan is slightly inferior in the number of shots, their chances of scoring several times are also very good. For example, Kluivert’s single-handedness in a three-minute game … If the game is kicked like this, I believe the fans can see a wonderful game." Italian ace commentator Rao still explained the game conscientiously
After several counter-attacks, the players of both sides finally showed a tug-of-war in the midfield. AC Milan played patiently in the attack. They kept scheduling their opponents’ defense lines back and forth, and Florence was not in a hurry. They showed crazy rush and defense in the midfield, forcing Milan players to make mistakes and then launched a wave of quick counterattacks.
I have to say that Ranieri’s tactical arrangement is still quite damaged. You know, AC Milan has been chasing Florence’s footsteps. In recent months, the main players who have played hard to win have hardly got enough rest due to long-term continuous battles.
This rhythm of the game can be maintained if it is a young and strong player like Kluiwitt or albertini, but we must know that there are still veterans over 30 like Donadoni and baresi in Milan’s main lineup who are rapidly consuming their few physical preparations.
Therefore, Ranieri’s purpose in playing this tactic is very true, that is, fierce grabbing and a large number of running positions consume Milan players’ physical strength and send three strikers, which is also the reason.
If the plan goes well, AC Milan will survive this game, but in the next week’s double match, the Rossoneri will collapse because of physical exhaustion. After all, they will not be easy to take on their opponents
So when Milan players are no longer physically strong enough to support the whole game, it is an excellent opportunity for Florence to expand its lead!
This tactic seems simple, but it is also the most human-cracking tactic! In order to crack this tactic, there must be enough and powerful substitute players to enter the rotation ranks. Now AC Milan is obviously far from meeting this requirement …
The next game is also developing in the direction that Ranieri hoped. When the Fiorentina players violently forced savicevic and other veterans to slip, and the lack of physical fitness made Milan weaken at both ends of the attack and defense, this situation became more and more serious after 7 minutes.
Although Capello has replaced Stefano Eranio and Marco Simone, it is obviously not enough to rejuvenate the team.
At this moment, Ranieri changed players such as Rui Costa and vieri in succession to strengthen the attack. Finally, in injury time, after vieri received Ronaldo’s direct ball in the penalty area, he made two strides to stop himself. baresi scored a goal with a furious shot, and the score of the game was fixed at one!
Chapter 27 Expand your advantages!
After winning the first leg of the Italian Cup with AC Milan, it is naturally unnecessary for Florence to continue to borrow the Pitina base. As soon as the press conference after the game is over, the team bus will immediately return to Florence.
Although the main goal of the game is to bring down AC Milan, which is already a spent force, it is obvious that Florence is also having a hard time sitting on the bus. The players also showed a little tired look after this big war. After all, after half a year of fighting, they were almost ready for this time last summer, but they are younger than Milan, and their physical recovery speed is much faster. This is the real advantage of Florence.
Although the fierce battle with Milan has consumed a lot of physical strength of Florence players, Ranieri is not particularly worried because he has already done a good job of replacing all the players except the goalkeeper in the next league match. After all, among Seven Sisters in Serie A, the fighting capacity of Florence bench array is the most terrible. Other teams, even AC Milan, are not as thick as Florence’s rotation array. If you pull out one casually, you can bear the main force of the rotation of strong teams in Serie A …
Therefore, in the 29th round of Serie A on April 6th, Ranieri said that he had made a big rotation of the starting lineup. As a result, except for the choice of the starting goalkeeper, ten starting players were replaced by him. vieri and filippo inzaghi partnered with striker Costa to replace effenberg as the core of the organization. crippa and Di Biagio protected Roberto Baggio’s starting appearance behind the Portuguese, which played a role in connecting the center and frontcourt. The four players in the back line are fortunato, Verjoward, Filicano and Zambrotta Verjoward. Although he is no longer in the team and is semi-retired, his competitive state is still quite good. He is willing to take the bench and never make trouble. It should be no problem for him to deal with the bottom team like Padua with experience.
In the face of relegation, Padua didn’t play well in Florence, but they still got three points. In the first minute, Roberto Baggio dribbled the ball in the middle and passed two Padua players in a row. After the latter received the ball, he shoveled and scored the only goal in the game. When Florence came, it was obvious that it was better than the opponent. The technical level firmly controlled the whole game trend, and the visiting team did not give too many opportunities. At the same time, from time to time, Padua players could not resist attacking opportunities and made a quick counterattack, forcing the visiting players to be careful not to easily put most of their troops into it.
Finally, when the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, Florence struggled to win the opponent.
Fiorentina players are very excited to win a three-point victory at home. After all, every three-point victory for them will take them one step further from their dream of defending the league. It is only a matter of time before they continue to win the league title!
An hour after the match against Padua in Florence, they declared defeat in a game. AC Milan ushered in an opponent who was very headache for them-Biancocelesti Lazio.
