After winning the first round against Atlanta, Fiorentina is one step closer to the dream of the Triple Crown. As long as the team can guarantee normal performance, winning the Coppa Italia should not be a problem.

Although the Atlanta players were very disappointed with losing the first round, they soon regained their spirits-since Fiorentina has already secured the league championship this season, Viola must participate in next season's competition. In the European Champions Cup, if this is the case, at least they will be able to qualify for the European Cup Winners' Cup next season after securing the runner-up in the Coppa Italia.

While Fiorentina forged ahead domestically, the other semi-final clash of the European Cup this season finally came to a close, with Ajax first in a two-legged clash with Greek powerhouse Panathinaikos. In the first round of the contest, Inzaghi succeeded in a sneak attack at the beginning, and finally drew the opponent [-]-[-] in the away game; in the second round of the game, Van Gaal gave full play to the home court advantage and the technical characteristics of his players. With a tide-like attack, the five big and three thick Greeks were defeated.

Three to zero!With a total score of four to one, Ajax, which was poached by the giants last summer and lost a lot of blood, surprisingly reached the final of the Champions League final!

After losing half of the team's main force last summer, Ajax, who still bravely reached the Champions League final, shocked the critics' jaws. These self-proclaimed experts never thought that it would be such a finalist. A semi-disabled Dutch team.

Ajax has been able to enter the Champions League final for two consecutive years. There are some luck factors. For example, La Liga champions Real Madrid and Premier League champions Blackburn were eliminated in the group stage. The half area where Fiorentina is drawn is precisely because of this, Ajax, whose strength has been greatly weakened, was lucky enough to enter the finals.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Ajax's ability to enter the final was entirely due to luck. Coach Van Gaal's strategizing and the efforts of Ajax players also played a big role.

Many European giants who tasted the sweetness of the Bosman Act last summer once again put their greedy eyes on Ajax. Seeing such a powerful performance from Ajax, they have already begun to plan to stage it this summer." The plot of the second season of Carve up Ajax...

Litmanning, Edwin van der Sar, the De Boer brothers...these are immeasurable wealth and mouth-watering high-quality star resources!

Not to mention the respective calculations of these giants, let's take a look at the penultimate round of Serie A on May 5, when Fiorentina played against Rome at their home stadium, the Frankie Stadium.

Since Fiorentina had already won the league title two rounds ahead of schedule, and there was a second leg of the Coppa Italia final in a few days, Ranieri sent a large number of substitutes when drawing up the starting list with Roma. Vieri , Tomasi, Wiljoward, Guadalben and other players were all selected.

Roma's current situation is very delicate. According to the previous agreement between the g14 alliance and UEFA, next season's Serie A will get two European Champions Cups and three UEFA Cup places. Therefore, all Serie A teams are trying to squeeze into the league. top five positions.And Roma is now ranked sixth in the league standings, and Parma in fifth is exactly three points more than them.

The three points are more or less, but it is these three points that have become the natural moat for the Roma team to get a place in the European competition next season!

If Fiorentina can beat Ajax to win the European Champions Cup, then Roma, currently ranked sixth, will not have to be so nervous now.Because according to the current European Champions Cup rules, the defending champion can get an extra place to participate in the Champions League next season, so that Rome can get a UEFA Cup place according to the recursive rules.

However, the Roma club dare not bet on this possibility. After all, it is a very unsafe thing to entrust the fate of the team to other people.

Therefore, the old coach Mazzoni sent all the main players in this game. Fonseca, Balbo and Totti formed the front trident, and the Brazilian central defender Aldair was responsible for directing the team's defensive position.

At the beginning of the game, Roma, who were playing in an away game, launched a fierce attack towards the gate of Florence, and the "Fiorentina Second Team" composed of substitute players was obviously not mentally prepared for this. Just 13 minutes after the opening whistle sounded, Florence was on the verge of attacking. Conceded two goals in a row at his home court and temporarily fell behind [-]-[-].

After being hit by Balbo and Totti twice in a row, the Fiorentina players gradually found their game state, and began to launch a counterattack under the organization of Roberto Baggio and Rui Costa.

Although the Roma players began to shrink their formation and prepare to play a defensive counterattack under the instruction of coach Mazzoni after gaining a two-goal lead, they faced Vieri, Baggio, Costa, Inzaghi and others. The attack line formed is still quite difficult to defend.

No.307 minutes, Costa went straight in the middle, and Roberto Baggio, who received the ball at the front of the penalty area, did not choose to stop the ball. With his back to the goal, he lightly tapped the ball with the heel of his right foot and sent the ball to the goal. At the foot of Inzaghi, who succeeded in anti-offside!

Inzaghi, who has formed a single-handed trend, naturally will not waste this good opportunity to score. He looked up and observed the position of the Roman goalkeeper, and found that the opponent only defended the near corner of the goal.So Inzaghi decisively pushed the far corner of the goal with the arch of his right foot and succeeded, rewriting the score on the field to one to two, and Fiorentina regained a victory!

As the two sides entered a stalemate, Roma's trident fell silent under the meticulous care of Fiorentina's defensive players after scoring two goals in a row at the beginning of the game.Especially Totti, who is the most active among the tridents. This young player seems to be struggling under the close defense of the midfielder Kripa. After all, Totti is not as technical as Zidane, and there is no way to deal with such Man to man defense.

Although Rome's offense was suppressed, Florence's offense did not move much.After a goal was pulled back by Fiorentina, the Roma team retreated across the board and planned to hold on to the fruits of victory. After shrinking the defense, the small space and the dense crowd in the penalty area seriously hindered Fiorentina's pace of equalizing the score.

No matter at any time, cracking the iron barrel array is a worldwide problem.

At the end of the game, Costa's long shot hit Aldair's body and popped out of the bottom line. Fiorentina got a corner kick.

Since this is the last minute of stoppage time, this is also Florence's last chance to attack in this game!

After observing the position of his teammates in the penalty area, Costa took a deep breath and kicked the ball into the middle of the penalty area!

"Oh! Vieri jumped! He jumped so high... incredible! He pinned Aldair in the air! Hit the ball! Head shot!"

"Gooooal! Goal! In the last minute of stoppage time, Fiorentina equalized the score with Vieri's header! Fiorentina had previously maintained a record of 1 consecutive league games unbeaten. Vieri's goal The goal successfully allowed Fiorentina to continue their unbeaten golden stature!"
