As the champion of La Liga last season, Real Madrid was eliminated in the group stage. The result is obviously unacceptable to many Spanish media and Real Madrid celebrities, but these people obviously did not attribute the fault to Real Madrid itself, but pointed the finger together For Florence, who lost to the Rangers, the voices condemning Viola kept coming and going.

The ugliest scene in Champions League history! "This is the headline of "Aspen" the next day. This sports newspaper, which acts as the mouthpiece of Real Madrid, uses two full pages to describe the despicable Fiorentina who deliberately lost to the Glasgow Rangers in the last group match. Madrid was out early and angrily denounced Fiorentina's behavior as "unsportsmanlike and a sign of football's regression."

"Marca" stated that Fiorentina used this intentional losing method to force the La Liga champions out of the group stage entirely because they were afraid of meeting Real Madrid again in the knockout round, saying that UEFA should severely punish Fiorentina for this. This kind of match-fixing behavior should at least give this Italian team a penalty of being banned from participating in any European competitions for one year, so as to avoid public outrage.

Regarding the accusations from the pro-Real Madrid media, Italy is naturally not to be outdone. After all, Fiorentina is going to the European Champions Cup as the Serie A champion, which represents Italian football. Come here to slap Italian football naked in the face of the public!

As a result, many Italian sports media headed by Gazzetta dello Sport launched a vigorous counterattack. The Italian editors used a lot of facts to prove how absurd the Spaniard's remarks are. How Florence plays football is their own business. Before the game, there was absolutely no secret manipulation, let alone "match-fixing". The accusations made by the Spanish media can be regarded as groundless slander!

At the same time, they also pointed out that the most unsportsmanlike is obviously Real Madrid itself. In order to win, he injured Batistuta in the game. So far, no one in the Real Madrid Club has made a public apology for this incident. Madrid media, we Italians are ashamed to communicate with them etc...

The Italian media's counterattack made Madrid furious, but they had nothing to refute. After all, the examples cited by the other party are all facts. It is also true that Real Madrid has not apologized for Batty's incident. In this case, it is counting on Florence. It is a luxury to be able to help Real Madrid.

So in the next few days, the sports media in Madrid could only make a fuss about Fiorentina's intentional loss, and never mentioned any sportsmanship issues, because in this regard, it is obvious that their side is even more wrong...

Real Madrid is not the only well-known team that failed to qualify for the European Champions Cup this time. The Premier League champion Blackburn was also killed by Legia from Poland and Spartak Moscow from Russia. first trip to the Champions League.

……

After finishing the European competition, Fiorentina only have three league games left before the winter break. Their next opponents are Udinese, Atlanta and AC Milan. The most familiar team, counting the upcoming league this weekend, the two sides have played a total of three games in less than a month, it is difficult to know if they are not familiar.

The third match against Udinese can be said to be uneventful. The first two matchups made the Fiorentina players already aware of the tactics and characteristics of the Udinese team. Ranieri did not let the main players play in the UEFA Champions League game. Therefore, in this game, the Viola players who had recharged their batteries for a week once again tore Udinese into pieces. Batistuta scored twice. Djokovic Kraft scored a goal, and Fiorentina beat Wuji [-]-[-].

A week later, in the No.14 round of Serie A, Fiorentina went to Bergamo Stadium to face Atlanta.

Atalanta Club is a well-known production base for new stars in Italian football. Donadoni, the main winger in Milan's "Three Musketeers Era" (he served as the head coach of the Italian national team in the 08 European Cup), and Tacina who was dug into Florence by Zhuang Mingge Didu grew up in Atlanta.

In Zhuang Mingge's original world, Atlanta in the 95-96 season had Vieri who had just emerged, but under the influence of Zhuang Mingge's "butterfly", Vieri, who had already become a member of Fiorentina, naturally missed Atlanta.

However, Atlanta's youth training system and scouting system are really not covered. Although there is no Vieri, they have discovered the attacking midfielder Cristiano Doni many years earlier than in history, and the scoring desire is abnormal. Strong, he added the original young midfielder Morfeo in the team, and Cristiano Lucarelli, who came from the Atlanta youth training camp like Morfeo, was at the front to pull the ball for the two (this gentleman later He won a Serie A golden boot when he played for Livorno, and he was also an Italian player), and there is also Uruguay central defender Paul Montero on the defense line. It can be said that although the Atlanta players are still not well-known At the same time, they are lacking in experience and ability, but over time, they are all masters who can occupy a place in the top league.

So, in the face of this Atlanta youth team, Ranieri cunningly dispatched a set of experienced starting lineup. His intention is quite obvious, that is, to take advantage of the opponent's youthful vigor and his old players' experience Winning the game: Verjoward and Ferrara form a centre-back partnership, with Batistuta, Baggio and Djorkaeff running the frontcourt, with Kerry behind them Par, Effenberg and Di Biagio.

Under Ranieri's meticulous design, although Atlanta showed its fans a bright future of its own and Dhoni took the lead in the No. 11 minute of the game, but the experienced Fiorentina quickly So he calmed down and lured the opponent to continue to attack. The young and vigorous Morfeo and others did not know what to do to lead the team to press forward. As a result, in the second half, the weak Atlanta man was easily overturned by the seasoned Fiorentina. Baggio and Felicano, who replaced Ferrara, scored a goal each to help the visiting team successfully reverse.

In this way, after being unexpectedly drawn by Juventus, the Viola, who had won a wave of four consecutive league victories, will usher in their last game in [-] a week later. AC Milan's decisive battle!
