The Era of Emerald

Seeing that the ball was pushed out by Blanc, the Fiorentina fans in the stands let out a sound of disappointment, and then gave warm applause to Vieri, who was fighting for the header, and Redondo, who sent this wonderful long pass!

However, the applause soon turned into exclamations from Fiorentina fans, as well as cheers from Juventus fans!

Because after defending Florence's sudden attack, Juventus immediately launched a counterattack!

Although Lippi's tactics before the game are defensive counterattacks, and in extreme cases it can even be said to be an iron barrel formation, but when the ball is already at their own feet, the Bianconeri players can still try to attack.

However, they should not invest too much force in the attack, lest the opponent seize the opportunity to counterattack, and the loss outweighs the gain.

The ball that Blank pushed out was caught by Montero ahead of Ronaldo as soon as it flew out of the penalty area. In terms of physical fitness alone, this Uruguayan central defender known for his fierce defense is much stronger than the alien.Montero opened his hands in between, stopped Ronaldo behind him, and then quickly passed the ball to Deschamps in front.

When Deschamps stopped the ball, Effenberg quietly appeared behind the French midfielder, stretched out his right foot and stabbed towards the ball!

And Deschamps is not a fledgling rookie. He has long been on guard against Effenberg's move and directly distributed the ball to the wing.Torricelli, who plugged in, received the ball smoothly, and then began to accelerate the breakthrough along the right!

Although Torricelli's breakthrough is quite decisive, and his dribbling speed is not slow, but Roberto Carlos is obviously better in speed.The Brazilian, who quickly returned to defense, entangled with Torricelli, and then both fell to the ground in the fight.

The referee Cragg rushed to the scene of the accident, sentenced Carlos for a foul, and at the same time gave Juventus a free kick in the front court near the sideline.

Seeing this, Montero and Blanc rushed into Fiorentina's penalty area-obviously, although Lippi did intend to use defense to deal with Fiorentina, this does not mean that Silver Fox completely gave up attacking, just like a quick counterattack. Field set kicks are also one of the important scoring methods for the Bianconeri in this game.

Therefore, when Zidane, who was in charge of taking the free kick, adjusted the ball, in the penalty area of ​​Fiorentina, players from both sides huddled together. Time seemed quite chaotic.The referee Cragg had to rush over to stop the fight between the players on both sides and ordered them not to make any more unnecessary moves.

Zidane took this opportunity to observe the situation in Fiorentina's penalty area, and then after the referee blew his whistle, he raised his foot and passed the ball to the center of the crowd!

Zidane is worthy of being a midfield master. The arc and speed of his free kick are very well controlled, which makes it very difficult for the defensive Fiorentina players, because the flight path of the ball is inward.If the judgment is not good, it is easy to cause a top fall.

The Fiorentina players were worried about falling out of position, but the Juventus players who were on the offensive side didn't have these thoughts. Blanc, who is 1.9 meters tall, saw the ball flying towards him, and immediately accelerated to take off, ready to make a direct throw Head attack!

Seeing this situation, Toldo did not hesitate at all, and decisively abandoned the goal and rushed out of the small penalty area. Taking advantage of his height and long arms, he punched the ball before Blank was about to attack. To hit the restricted area!

However, Florence's crisis did not end there. The ball hit by Toldo fell to the feet of Pierrot who was wandering outside the penalty area.

Facing the dark crowd in front of him, the zebra prince, who was worried that his shot line would be blocked by the crowd, chose to shoot directly!

Just when the ball was about to fly into the unguarded goal of Fiorentina, Nesta appeared on the goal line in time and kicked the ball far away with a big kick!

Due to the urgency of the situation at the time, Nesta's clearance naturally used a lot of strength, so the ball flew a very long distance this time, and the landing point pointed directly at Juventus' half-court!

Pessoto and Torricelli, who stayed in the backcourt to defend, found that the ball was flying towards their own half.

"Damn it!" x2

If the set-piece just now was an opportunity for Juventus, then after Nesta's unexpected clearance, it was Fiorentina's opportunity-due to the fact that Juventus players stepped forward to participate in the attack, at this time the Bianconeri The defense line is not as tight as before. The three central defenders ran to the front to participate in the attack. Only the two full-backs, Pesotto and Torricelli, and the Frenchman Deschamps were left in the backcourt!

And what they have to face now is the joint impact of Vieri and Ronaldo!

Vieri looked at the ball falling from the sky, constantly moving his position, ready to unload the ball steadily.But Deschamps obviously won't make Vieri what he wants, and immediately clings to him, taking a close defense against Vieri.Torricelli watched from the sidelines, ready to rush up and flank Deschamps the moment Vieri unloaded the ball!

As for Ronaldo on the other side, Deschamps and Torricelli handed him over to Pessoto to mark.After all, aliens are not good at headers, so in their view, as long as they can steal the ball from Vieri in time, then Ronaldo will have no problems.

However, Deschamps and Torricelli still underestimated Vieri's ability after all.Just imagine, when faced with Vieri, who can rely on strength to break through the frontal defense of two first-class central defenders, Sanchez and Hierro, is it not so safe to rely on Deschamps alone to intercept from the front?

Therefore, Vieri directly ignored Deschamps' defense, stretched out his arms and used his extraordinary strength to block the Frenchman behind him, then raised his left foot and firmly stopped the ball under his feet !

Deschamps, who was blocked by Vieri, realized that he had misjudged the Italian center's strength. He wanted to make up for it, and he was trying his best to resist Vieri, preventing him from turning around when he got the ball. Face your own goal.

Seeing that Deschamps, who was in charge of defending Vieri, seemed extremely struggling, Torricelli rushed over and stretched his feet to steal, but Vieri did not let the opponent's plot succeed.After testing Deschamps' strength backwards, Vieri gave up his plan to head-to-head with the French iron waist.

I saw Vieri took a step forward with his right foot, blocked Torricelli who was grabbing him sideways, and then pushed the ball sideways with the arch of his left foot!

Ronaldo, who was responding behind Vieri, immediately got rid of Pesoto when he saw this, and rushed towards the ball!

Now, it's Florence's counterattack!
