The Era of Emerald

PS1: This is an update on Thursday, a little bit late, I hope readers don’t 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.

PS3: Here I would like to thank the book friend "Tianyuan Hanqi" for the reward.

Since you have taken so many benefits and are not greedy enough, and are always short-sighted and trying to break the existing rules under the banner of defending your own rights, then don't blame me for being cruel.Seeing Berlusconi leaving the box with an unhappy face, Zhuang Mingge thought so.

You know, the Serie A league, which implements packaged sales of TV broadcast rights, sold the league's TV broadcast rights for the next three years in the summer of 2004, but sold them at a sky-high price of 20 billion euros.The signing of this huge broadcast contract has greatly improved the financial situation of all Serie A clubs, allowing Serie A clubs to climb out of the crisis of the economic bubble burst at the turn of the century. Rupture into severe financial crisis (such as Rome, Lazio, Parma, etc.), or even bankruptcy (such as Florence) scenarios.

In addition, under the joint promotion of the Prodi government and the Italian Football Association, all Serie A clubs have now obtained all the right to use and transform their home stadiums (clubs that share a stadium, such as the Milan duo and the Rome duo, share these rights equally) , Further improved the economic foundation of the Serie A clubs, so that these clubs still have enough financial resources to reinforce the team lineup despite the depression of the entire European transfer market.

If there is no package sale of league broadcasting rights, but the clubs are allowed to negotiate with the TV stations independently, then the top three teams in the North, as well as Fiorentina and Lazio, may be able to get a piece of fat from broadcasters that far exceeds their current income. However, other Serie A clubs may be severely suppressed by broadcasters due to lack of stars or popularity, and have to sign their broadcast contracts at a figure lower than the normal market price.

That's why Zhuang Mingge was extremely angry at these white-eyed wolves crossing the river and demolishing bridges—it's okay for Berlusconi to make a fuss, after all, the current broadcast fee allocation plan is to some extent at the expense of some of AC Milan's interests. He could be forgiven for expressing dissatisfaction with this.But the old Sensi and Garone (Sampdoria chairman) who have reaped so many benefits from this distribution plan, what qualifications do you two have to jump out and make irresponsible remarks on this matter? !

Zhuang Mingge's attitude towards these guys who only want to profit for themselves and don't care about other people's lives is very clear.That is, as long as they dare to stretch out their hands, he dares to chop off all the claws of these people and throw them back!

While Zhuang Mingge waited patiently for someone who couldn't bear to take the initiative to jump out and die, so that he would have a chance to make an example of others, Fiorentina had also ended their two-round battle with Arsenal, with a total score of four to one. The Gunners were eliminated and advanced to the semi-finals of the Champions League with their heads held high!

Although Wenger had to sell the team captain Vieira to Juventus last summer under the financial pressure brought about by the construction of the new stadium in exchange for the necessary funds to maintain the normal operation of the club, the strength of the team has been seriously affected. However, due to the fact that other key members of the 03-04 undefeated championship season are still there, coupled with the growth of young players such as Fabregas, Van Persie, and Eboue, and the fact that the Gunners have shifted the focus of the game this season In the Champions League, so Arsenal's strength should not be underestimated by Fiorentina.

"Ice Prince" Bergkamp is old and strong, and "King of Highbury" Henry, with the support of Pires, Van Persie, Ljungberg and other teammates, played a highlight performance not inferior to the peak season of 03-04, leading the Gunners all the way. , successfully reached the quarterfinals of the Champions League.

However, unfortunately, Arsenal encountered Fiorentina, a strong enemy, on the way to the semi-finals.Although Wenger and Arsenal players said in interviews before the game that they are not afraid of Fiorentina with rich championship experience and have enough confidence to beat the Viola to advance to the semi-finals, but in fact, not many people think that the Gunners will be eliminated Viola's hope, at most, is to cause some trouble for the other party.

After all, Fiorentina can be said to be quite experienced in dealing with a team with strong offense and weak defense like Arsenal.In particular, the Gunners' current defense is far less stable than it was two years ago. The older and older Campbell and Lehmann have fallen from their peaks, and Ashley Cole is also entangled with Arsenal on the issue of contract renewal. Everything made Arsenal's defense, which was one of the best in the Premier League, become vulnerable.

To make matters worse, Mourinho, like his previous life, discovered the key to Wenger's tactical system, which is that Arsenal lacks a strong commanding height in the penalty area.Therefore, in the two rounds of the match against Arsenal, the Portuguese decisively resorted to the method of defensive counterattack, concentrated all the defensive forces in the middle, resolutely refused to infiltrate Arsenal's middle, and tried their best to compress the Gunners' pass and cut space!

The result of Mourinho's choice to block the center and sideline is that Arsenal, lacking a strong center, cannot pose much threat to Fiorentina's goal.Facing Florence's steel defense line like a moving Great Wall, Henry and others, who are accustomed to solving battles through wide-ranging interspersed running, cross-positioning, and pass-and-cut coordination, find it difficult to launch an offensive in a small space for movement. Most of the crosses were also easily cleared by the Fiorentina players who were guarding in the penalty area.

In this way, in the face of Fiorentina's highly targeted tactical arrangement, Arsenal, which was trying to make a breakthrough in the European competition, once again failed in the Champions League. "Ice Prince" Bergkamp's last trip to the Champions League in his playing career also ended in regret, and he failed to use a big ear cup as his farewell gift.

Of course, in order to defeat Arsenal, Fiorentina also paid a corresponding price.Due to the distraction from the European competition, Fiorentina was tied by Rome in the No.30 second round of the league. As a result, Viola was successfully overtaken by Juventus, who won this round, and fell to the No.2 position in the standings!

In this regard, the Juventus fans who have been waiting for most of the season are naturally excited.Although the Bianconeri are currently only two points ahead of Fiorentina, being able to complete the overtake with only six rounds left in the league is enough to make them happy for a long time.

However, Juventus fans were not able to rejoice for too long.Because in the No.30 three-round match, Fiorentina, who was a guest at the Alpi Stadium, once again beheaded Juventus. In the No.707 minute of the game, a top fall gave Milito a chance to score a one-handed goal, and the latter also seized this rare opportunity. He pushed the far corner of the goal with his left foot and scored two teams in this game. The only goal!

So, after the 33rd round of the league, Fiorentina, who once lost the leader's throne, returned to the top position again, leading the standings with a slight advantage of one point!
