After the home victory over Piacenza, the Fiorentina team flew to Germany to prepare for the second round of the upcoming Champions League quarter-finals.

For this game, although Fiorentina has paid enough attention to the Dortmund team, in general, the players' mentality is relatively relaxed.After all, when the total score is already [-]-[-], the probability of the Germans wanting to complete a comeback in the second round can be said to be infinitely close to zero.

Therefore, for this second round of the game, Capello did not send the strongest lineup to fight, but made a substantial rotation of the starting lineup to ensure that the players have sufficient physical fitness to cope with the subsequent games.

De Sanctis, Fortunato, Materazzi, Ferrara, Angloma, Tomasi, Di Biagio, Zanetti, Ze Roberto, Effenberg, Ronaldo and Batistuta, this is Fiorentina's starting lineup for this game.

Looking at the home team, the [-]-[-] defeat in the first leg put the Dortmund team under great pressure. Andres Muller, who has always been displeased with the head coach, began to make waves in the team , Try every means to drive Scala away, let him be the boss of the team.

Under such heavy pressure from all sides, the head coach Scala, who had been playing the role of the irritated daughter-in-law in the team, finally broke out, and directly used a quick knife to cut through the mess. Muller was thrown into limbo, and the talented teenager Lars Ricken was strengthened as the team's main attacking midfielder; some players were promoted from the youth training echelon and the bench to replace Summer and Paul Sorre, who were reimbursed for the entire season. Sa's position has finally established his own prestige within the team.

Compared with the luxurious team under Hitzfeld last season, which had Sammer, Riddell, Ann Muller, Koller and many other good players, the Dortmund team built by Scala seems a bit bleak, but it is precisely This slightly civilian team played a wonderful game in the second round against Fiorentina!

Chapuisat used his alert running position and precise shooting skills to score two consecutive cities in the No.18 and No.306 minutes, leading the home team to establish a two-goal lead at the end of the first half; At the same time, when Fiorentina launched a counterattack in the second half and Ronaldo and Batistuta tied the score at [-]-[-], it was the Swiss star who stepped forward again and assisted Riken to score from the front of the penalty area.

Had it not been for Philip Inzaghi, who came off the bench, to catch a pass from Ze Roberto in stoppage time, I am afraid Dortmund could have won a victory at the Westfalenstadion.

In the end, when the whole game ended, Fiorentina, who played in the away game, tenaciously tied the score to [-]-[-] even after being two goals behind, and eliminated last season's Champions League runner-up Dortmund with a total score of [-]-[-]. , Advance to the quarter-finals of the Champions League with your head held high!

The Fiorentina players who returned from the Champions League did not get much rest time. After two days of rest in Fiorentina, Capello led the players to the south of Italy non-stop, preparing for the match with Pepper Lecce. No.20 five league rounds.

Although Lecce, which has performed poorly in Serie A this season, is currently ranked third from the bottom of the standings, only higher than Naples and Empoli, which have been fighting for the bottom position, while Fiorentina is the leader of the league. Sheep, the disparity in strength between the two sides makes the result of this game seem to be without any suspense.

But the result of the game was that Fiorentina, who was the leader, was pissed on the tongue by this little pepper-because Florence had not returned to Italy for a few days, and also played an extremely fierce game against Dortmund in Germany Therefore, in the game on the afternoon of March [-]th, the Fiorentina players who played away were not very excited, and were a little listless due to the warm and humid climate of the Mediterranean Sea.

This performance of Fiorentina naturally gave the Lecce players the hope of scoring points at home.

When the game progressed to No. 18 minutes, Lecce midfielder Maspero took advantage of a set kick in the frontcourt to help Pepper, who was fighting at home, take a one-goal lead!

Stimulated by being behind zero to one, the Fiorentina players finally came to their senses under the warm sunshine, remembering that they are still playing the game.

At the same time, Capello's cold eyes caused all the Fiorentina players on the field to shiver unconsciously-they knew that whenever the head coach put on this expression, it meant that some of them were going to be unlucky; And if you only look at the performance of the ten minutes just now, it is estimated that they will all be unlucky this time!

Recalling the horror that Capello once brought them, these Fiorentina players would never want to go through the special high-intensity training package jointly made by Capello, Fiorentina coaching staff, and sports medicine experts from the physiotherapy center!

Therefore, the Fiorentina players launched a fierce counterattack in the following time, pushing Lecce, who was playing at home, back into their own half, and started a half-court offensive and defensive drill!

It seems that it is only a matter of time before Fiorentina overtakes the score and completes the reversal, but things like scoring goals sometimes really depend on luck.

When luck is good, goals can be said to come easily, no matter how you play; if you are unlucky, even if the players face an empty goal, there is a possibility that they will hit the plane directly.

The Fiorentina players were not very lucky in this game. Whether it was Vieri's header bombing, Costa's free kick, or Davis and Carlos' long-range shots, there was no way to blast Lecce away. The goal guarded by goalkeeper Lorieri, even Inzaghi's shot from three meters in front of the goal in the No. 603 minute all hit the goal post and popped out of the bottom line... Fiorentina this afternoon The difference in luck can be seen from this.

In desperation, Capello had no choice but to send a super substitute Julio Cruz, let him and Vieri partner to form a striker twin towers, with Inzaghi in the two, to see if he can reverse this situation against Fiorentina. An extremely unfortunate situation.

And Cruz did not live up to Capello's expectations, or it can be said that this afternoon, only his luck in the Fiorentina team can still be maintained at a normal level: the Argentine center received Rui Rui in No. 903 minutes. Costa scored with a header from a corner kick, turning the home team's imminent three points into a point, and also allowed Fiorentina to avoid the fate of a defeat at the last moment.

In the end, Fiorentina drew with Lecce [-]-[-] at the Del Mare Stadium and scored a point.
