The Era of Emerald

() The moment he saw Baggio wading past Rossi, Baresi stopped chasing and closed his eyes in despair. He knew the truth that time is not forgiving, but he never thought it would come So fast, the golden line of defense that ruled Europe more than a year ago is now riddled with holes.

Today, the old comrade-in-arms Tassotti, who has been fighting together for more than ten years, has been replaced by the younger Panucci. Costacurta can no longer find his peak state after the US World Cup. No matter how stable he is, all kinds of low-level mistakes emerge in endlessly... Although he can still maintain the top defensive level in Serie A, how long can he last at the age of 35?One year, or two years?

While Baresi was quietly thinking about his future while standing on the court, Roberto Baggio, who expanded the score for Fiorentina, ran to the sidelines and celebrated his goal with many Fiorentina fans at the scene.

For Roberto Baggio, who returned to Emerald for close to $600 million plus two key rotation players, this return to Fiorentina is to prove to Lippi and everyone who thought he was not at his peak that he is still there. One of the top players in world football.

However, this time when he returned to Florence, he was surprised to find that the team was much stronger than when he left five years ago in terms of player ability and lineup thickness.Just talking about these players on the striker line, Baggio originally thought that with his own strength, he could form a super striker line that swept across Europe with Batistuta without any suspense, but it turned out that the newcomer named Ronaldo in the summer was a Brazilian striker. With a string of goals at the beginning of the season, he won a stable starting position for himself, while Baggio was reduced to a rotation player for the team due to injuries.

However, Baggio was not discouraged by this. After all, he suffered from Lippi's differential treatment at Juventus last season. position, now it is just that he has no chance to play because of his status, so Baggio is patiently waiting for his own opportunity.

Sure enough, Ronaldo first participated in the World Youth Championship on behalf of the Brazilian youth team and gave Baggio room to perform. Taking advantage of the great opportunity for the Brazilian to be far away in Qatar, Baggio scored three goals in two rounds of the league. Bajolian is old," critics shut their mouths.

Then Ronaldo's serious injury in training made Baggio see the hope of returning to the main force, but the injury found him again at an untimely time. Philip Inzaghi.

Baggio himself admires Inzaghi's elusive off-the-ball running and his unusually sensitive sense of smell when scoring opportunities appear. He thinks that even now he can't reach Inzaghi's level.

But Baggio also has an advantage that Inzaghi can't match, that is, he is the only player among the team's forwards who has the ability to dribble...except for Djorkaeff, after all, this Frenchman is the team's leader More in the front waist position.

However, Ranieri's attitude towards which of the two will start seems to be determined according to the opponent's situation and the team's tactical needs. If a counterattack is required, then in the case of Ronaldo's serious injury, Baggio is naturally the first choice. If there are more opponents The most important is the type that can't defend, so Inzaghi, who is good at seizing opportunities, will be the starter.

Under such a strong competitive pressure, Baggio seemed quite excited after scoring the goal to expand the score-this goal allowed him to tie with Inzaghi to become the second shooter in the team, and also for himself. A heavy weight has been added to the head coach's mind.

As the head coach of the team, Ranieri is naturally very aware of the fierce competition within the team, not only on the front line, but even tinkerers in the arrangement of midfielders are facing happiness troubles. There are too many good players, and any one picked at random is at least at the main level of a strong Serie A team...

However, Ranieri is very supportive of this kind of healthy competition. In his opinion, as long as the bowl can be equalized, this kind of competition between players can definitely bring more benefits to the team.

……

After Fiorentina led [-]-[-], Capello is still unwilling to announce that he will give up the game. You must know that in the past [-] rounds of the league, he is eight points behind the top team. For AC Milan, which has dominated Serie A for many years It's an absolutely unbearable thing.

Especially his big boss Mr. Berlusconi, the Italian media tycoon has been touted by the media as "Milan is the best in the world" in the past few years.At the same time, having successfully been elected Prime Minister of Italy once by virtue of football, he naturally hopes that AC Milan can continue to use its outstanding results to add weight to his future second election.If he hasn't brought the team a heavyweight championship for two consecutive years, even if he wins a league runner-up at the end of the season, he may not escape the fate of getting out of class.

Although Capello, who has become a famous European coach, will not worry about leaving home even if he is fired, but he still hopes to make more contributions to the club after his player era ended his career in Milan.

So, before the re-kick-off, Capello made some adjustments to the field lineup. He replaced the physically weak Savicevic with Marco Simeone, so that the position on the field was the second striker. The players served as the team's midfielder, and Boban, who replaced the veteran Donadoni, took over Savicevic's baton and became the new organization core.Capello's meaning is very clear, he wants to use the attack at all costs to gain a chance of winning.

After seeing Capello's substitutions, Ranieri also began to dispatch troops, Edgar Davis came on to replace Rui Costa, and the tinker planned to use the Dutch wild boar's crazy fight to seal Boban's passing route, as long as Milan's three strikers on the field cannot receive the pass from their teammates, then the so-called counterattack will be out of the question.

Although Boban has outstanding skills, his fiery personality has limited his development. In 90, he was suspended by the Yugoslav Football Federation for four months because of a field brawl. As a result, he missed the Italian World Cup in the summer. Although the growth temper has been slightly restrained, his old problems still have a tendency to relapse under Davis' stalking in this game.No, Boban, who just played for less than 5 minutes, swung his elbow at the Dutchman because he couldn't bear Davis' frequent harassment. The Dutch boar cleverly avoided it, but Boban's action was watched by the referee on duty. It was clear, and a yellow card was immediately given to the Croatian midfielder as a warning.

After seeing Boban got a yellow card for his defense, Davis worked harder in the following time, as if sticking to Boban, leaving the Croatian midfielder with no energy to go Organize the attack - Davis's idea is very simple, Milan's two forwards are dealt with by their own two central defenders, Di Biagio is more than enough to defend Simeone, and Kripa, who is everywhere, can guard against Albertini Just plug in and attack... Since AC Milan has only a few players with independent offensive capabilities on the field, it is no problem for me to put all my defensive energy on Boban!

The last ten minutes of the game were spent in chaos like this. AC Milan failed to recover the score through a strong attack, and regrettably lost to Fiorentina [-]-[-].

In this way, Fiorentina ended all their official games in 1995 with a wave of five consecutive league victories, and at the same time won the honorary title of winter champion!
