To be honest, although he is well aware of the team's current weaknesses and weaknesses, Lippi still has a glimmer of hope in his heart before the start of the final, praying that Mourinho can get carried away and not notice Lazio's physical reserves Insufficient, it is best to launch a fierce attack at the beginning of the game, so that they have the opportunity to launch a quick counterattack.

In Lippi's vision, as long as Lazio can seize the opportunity of Fiorentina's aggressive opening attack and make a quick counterattack when they are still physically fit, then the team can control the rhythm of the game in their own hands.

However, judging from the current situation, what Lippi was most worried about before the game happened unexpectedly.Mourinho, a guy who is extremely realistic, is a master who does not see rabbits and does not scatter eagles. He will never invest heavily in the offense unless he drags down Lazio first, and he does not underestimate the enemy. Opportunity to launch a counterattack.

Therefore, Silver Fox, who failed to gamble, had to use his brains to consider how to get the team out of the current predicament.After all, although it is indeed remarkable to lead the team to the Champions League final in the first season after taking up the Lazio coach, Lippi also knows that if the team loses too badly in this final, then the team will lose face Abramovich will definitely vent his anger on his head at that time.Therefore, even for the sake of his own job, Lippi must come up with some countermeasures as soon as possible, so that the team's situation on the court will not become so passive and ugly.

Being able to get the nickname Silver Fox itself shows that Lippi is a very resourceful and tactical head coach, so it didn't take long for him to come up with several countermeasures.After weighing the pros and cons, Lippi quickly made a decision-nearly 10 minutes have passed since the start of the game. If he does not make a decision, then Lazio, who has shown fatigue But it will really be cleaned up by Florence.

"Oh, let Drogba retreat to the midfield, and at the same time let Essien expand the defensive area to share the defensive tasks of Stankovic and Deco, so as to reduce the defensive pressure of the midfield? Lippi really made a move It’s a good move.” Mourinho first praised Lippi’s response, and then changed the topic, “However, it’s still useless to do so. Angelo (Di Livio), tell Andre (Pirlo), attack from the two wings more. I would like to see how Essien and Drogba can fill the hole where the other four are weak in defense!"

Unlike other Lazio players, Drogba and Essien have excellent physical fitness and physical fitness. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are a super BUG in the football world.This can be seen from the fact that the former is called "Warcraft" by the media and fans, while the latter has the physical fitness that claims to be able to play a Serie A game a day.Therefore, it is reasonable for Lippi to arrange for them to plug the defensive loopholes exposed by Stankovic, Deco and others.

However, Lippi obviously did not expect that Mourinho's on-the-spot adjustment speed was no slower than him.It was almost only 2 minutes after his side adjusted. Fiorentina changed their play style of infiltrating from the middle, and started to attack from the two sides, supplemented by a wide range of play to deal with Lazio. up!

Can you kid not change his tricks so quickly!Watching Fiorentina quickly change their offensive strategy, Lippi, who had just made some adjustments, thought helplessly.He now very much hopes that Mourinho can have a little of Ancelotti's genes and inherit Fatty An's unique talent in on-the-spot adjustments, so that Lazio can have a little room to breathe.

It's a pity that Mourinho has no plans to let Lazio take a breather. He beat this powerful enemy completely with a stick, and let Fiorentina win the big ear cup after three years of absence. What about the target?

Mourinho's adjustment really hurt Drogba and Essien.Although their physical fitness and physical vegetarianism can be regarded as the top existence among all professional players, and their game attitude is extremely correct, but in the end they are just two people.With Ronaldinho and Robben basically not participating in the defense, and Stankovic and Deco being powerless, Drogba and Essien can only run against Fiorentina's style of play.

Two fists are hard to beat four hands, Drogba and Essien finally realized the meaning of this sentence deeply today.

Of course, Lippi's adjustments cannot be said to have been useless.After receiving Drogba's support, Lazio's midfield defense was much more stable than it was in the first 10 minutes. Although Fiorentina's offensive on the wing was very active during this period, the continuous large-scale transfers in the offense also made Lazio Eagle was in a panic, but Zi Lily's threat in front of the door was much weaker than before.And this also made many Lazio fans breathe a sigh of relief-after witnessing the team being suppressed by the opponent for almost half an hour, they finally didn't have to watch their own team's game in fear up.

Although it seems that Lazio has passed the difficulty, Silver Fox himself knows very well that the crisis of Lazio has not been resolved in fact, and all the current adjustments are just him drinking poison to quench his thirst.To put it bluntly, when even Essien and Drogba can't run anymore, Lazio will face the real crisis moment of this game!

In this regard, Lippi can't think of any good way to solve this predicament that is destined to come. He can only hope that Essien and Drogba can persist for a longer time, and at the same time pray that the team can survive the exhaustion. Played a counterattack before trying his best and scored a goal, which made Fiorentina just a mouse.

However, Lippi's expectation was doomed to fail.In the second minute of game No.60, Stankovic suddenly slipped and fell on the court during a return pass, and everyone on the court was caught off guard.Especially Essien and Deco, who were about to step forward to respond. Facing this sudden situation, their brains had no time to make any reaction at all, and they just watched the ball roll past them!

Pirlo seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, rushed over to get the ball, and then immediately put the ball straight in front of Diego Milito, who faked a turn and attack and gave the ball to Vincent who cut in from the left side of the penalty area.After attracting the attention of Petr Cech and others, the Spanish winger picked the ball to the back of the goal. Ronaldo slapped him from the right and scored with a powerful shot!

In this way, after struggling for more than an hour, Lazio's goal finally fell!
