The Era of Emerald

Chapter 307 Before the Finals

The 1995-96 season of Serie A has come to an end, and for the Fiorentina fans, this season is not over for them-at least not yet.

Because ten days later at the Olympic Stadium in Rome, there will be a game that fans all over Europe and even the world will pay attention to!That is the European Champions Cup final of this season!

The Olympic Stadium in Rome could have accommodated 10.5 spectators, but 2.5 of them belonged to standing stands. Due to several stadium tragedies that occurred in the 80s (Heysel tragedy and Healdsburg tragedy), UEFA banned them from playing in European games. Standing tickets are sold during the event, so the Olympic Stadium has only 7.2 seats left after some renovations.

For this European Champions Cup final, the organizers provided 2 tickets for Fiorentina and Ajax fans respectively, and then deducted some seats reserved for reporters and sponsors, and the remaining nearly [-] tickets All belong to neutral fans.For Florence fans, a mere [-] tickets is obviously not enough to satisfy their appetite. After all, the Frankie Stadium in Florence, which can accommodate [-] spectators, is often full this season, with more than [-] tickets. In the eyes of the fans, the tickets are not enough for them to squeeze their teeth.

For Fiorentina fans, it is unforgivable to miss watching the team's Champions League final live. God knows when Fiorentina will enter the Champions League final next time-don't you see that Barcelona and Real Madrid have dominated La Liga for the past ten years , but the total number of times to enter the Champions League finals is only two times, and one of them was defeated by AC Milan [-]-[-]...

It is precisely because of this that on the day when tickets for the UEFA Champions League final were sold at the ticket window in Florence, there was already a long queue at the ticket window. Many fans came to line up in the middle of the night, hoping to get a precious ticket. .

Compared with the fans, the relatives and friends of the Fiorentina players are much happier. Zhuang Mingge specially arranged for Kenyon to leave one hundred tickets, and each first-team player got two tickets. Some of the youth teams performed well The players also got a ticket, and the rest were handed over to Antonioni, who was asked to reward the club staff with the best work-such benefits and human touch are also a way to enhance the cohesion of the club.

As for Zhuang Mingge himself, he had already obtained a VIP box rented by the Sensi family at the Olympic Stadium for a long time through Rosella Sensi's relationship, and naturally Karin, Rebecca and Alisa were traveling with him. Three beautiful girls.

What?You ask where did the uncle Antonioni go?Of course he was taken to the next box by Zhuang Mingge.

If you disturb other people's love, you will be kicked to death by the horse. 【laugh】

Four days before the Champions League final, the Fiorentina team took a bus to Rome, the capital of Italy, and checked into a five-star hotel.On the way to Rome, Ranieri also specially emphasized team discipline. For example, it is not allowed to go out of the hotel to play without permission. If you want to rest, you can stay in the hotel. Anyway, no matter what entertainment facilities are in a five-star hotel, There are gyms, wine, and places to have fun.

The Fiorentina players still understand this quite well. They know what time it is now. If they want to relax, they can relax however they want after the Champions League final is over. Now go out to nightclubs?Are you kidding me...

In the next few days, in addition to going to the Olympic Stadium once a day for training to adapt to the venue, the Fiorentina players will conduct secret tactical training in the training base provided by the Roma Club for free in the rest of the time.

The Ajax players who came to Rome almost at the same time as Fiorentina did not have such a favorable treatment. Not only were they repeatedly made things difficult by the management of the Olympic Stadium when they applied for adaptation training, they had to move the training time from the planned afternoon to close In the evening, and when they were just beginning to adapt to the venue, the lighting facilities of the stadium failed due to some "accidental factors", which directly led to the complete failure of Ajax's first day's training plan.

When the Ajax club was about to contact Lazio, another team in Rome, to rent their training base, they were rejected by the Lazio, which led to the Ajax players having to coordinate with UEFA. A training ground with backward facilities is doing tactical training.

Although Ajax's coach Van Gaal was very angry about these things, he was helpless. Who made it happen that an Italian team entered the Champions League final this time, and the final venue happened to be in Italy.

It can be said that without anyone's coordination, almost all Italians united to deal with the "outsider" Ajax and create as much home court advantage as possible for the national team Fiorentina.

Time passed day by day, and the atmosphere of the Champions League final became more and more intense. UEFA flags were hung on both sides of most streets in the urban area of ​​Rome, as well as the flags of the Fiorentina club and the Italian flag. More, as for the Ajax team flag and the Dutch national flag, it is hard to find.

According to the words of the Romans, why should they hang the flag of their opponents at the door of their own house...

UEFA has nothing to do with this attitude of the Roman people. After all, this is Europe, and the people have absolute autonomy within the scope of the law. Even UEFA can only go door-to-door in a good manner. Coordination rather than domineering verbal orders must hang the flag of the Netherlands.

During the period before the start of the final, various people also began to predict this final, and finally came to the conclusion that Fiorentina, with this half home court advantage, should have an advantage in the Champions League final, not only because of them This season's excellent record in the league, and they almost broke into the final of the Champions League. First they eliminated Real Madrid in the group stage, and then they eliminated the Bundesliga champion Dortmund in the knockout stage. and Ligue [-] champions Monaco.The Legia and Panathinaikos that Ajax faced in the knockout round were not strong teams.Such a comparison makes people more optimistic about Fiorentina's prospects of winning the championship.

And the vast majority of Italian fans also said in interviews with reporters that they are more optimistic about the "New Champions League" Fiorentina, which has just completed two consecutive league titles, than Ajax. When reporters asked why, these fans were quite proud How could Fiorentina, the Serie A champion, be unable to deal with a semi-disabled Ajax?Not to mention that there are three absolute main players in their team who were loaned to Ajax because they couldn't stay in the Fiorentina first team.

The Dutch side was naturally unhappy when they heard it, so they fought again...

But these have nothing to do with the Fiorentina players for the time being. Their task now is to adjust their state well to meet the most important game of the season!
