Chapter 630 Misjudgment

ps: First ask for a recommendation ticket here...

"According to UEFA's Champions League rules for this season, when the game enters overtime, the golden ball system, which is the sudden death method, will be used to determine the winner. This also means that both sides Players need to be more cautious in the next half an hour of the game, after all, in this situation, any mistake may cause a fatal blow to the team!"

After the commentary came to an end, Baggio began to express his own views: "In fact, personally, I am very opposed to the implementation of the golden ball system, although this kind of sudden death is indeed very attractive to the fans. However, this also makes most teams pay more attention to defense during the overtime period, which leads to the fact that the intensity of the overtime scene is not as intense as when the golden ball system did not appear.”

"That's right, in order to avoid being won by the opponent's golden goal, the head coaches tend to pay more attention to defense in the overtime period instead of breaking the opponent's goal. Therefore, the implementation of the golden goal system has indeed produced a lot of fun for football games. Not a small adverse effect." The commentator also expressed his agreement with Baggio's views.

However, dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, and the two of them can only live their mouths in the live broadcast room. Whether to cancel the golden ball system, they can't say.

At this time, on the court, players from both sides returned to the court after a short break, waiting for the start of overtime.

Before the start of overtime, the coaches of both sides made some adjustments to the team's lineup.

For Juventus, Lippi replaced Otero, who scored a goal in the game, with Antonio Conte, and then replaced Iuliano, who was already unable to fight, with Tacchinardi.Silver Fox's purpose is very clear, that is to strengthen the team's defensive strength, survive this half hour, and drag the game into a penalty shootout!

Looking at Fiorentina again, Capello finally used up the two useless substitutions that had been held in his hands according to the physical consumption of the players. Zambrotta, who was already a little immobile, was replaced by the French veteran Gloma came off and Vieri, who had been battling Juventus defenders throughout the game, was replaced by Portuguese midfield maestro Rui Costa.

"Replacing a powerful center with an organizational midfielder. Although Fiorentina's strength in the forward line has weakened, Costa's play has allowed Fiorentina to raise another level in the control of the midfield. It seems that Ka Coach Perot didn't think of a penalty shootout to decide the winner." After getting the list of players in the overtime match, the commentator began to do his own work.

After the start of overtime, the Fiorentina players firmly controlled the ball at their feet with Redondo, Effenberg, and Rui Costa in the three midfielders. Pass the ball to tear the defense of the Juventus players, looking for opportunities that can kill with one blow.

The joint performance of the three midfield masters has further improved Fiorentina's ball possession rate in the overtime period, reaching about [-]% and close to [-]%!Far beyond the opponent's possession time and the continuous support from the midfielder, Ronaldo and Inzaghi in Juventus' penalty area still got a lot of shooting opportunities even though they were surrounded.

Faced with this passive situation, the Juventus players did not choose to launch a counterattack to make Fiorentina scruples. Instead, they behaved more conservatively on the court. , Piero and others even gave up on the counterattack. After intercepting Fiorentina's offense, they simply ignored it and directly drove the ball towards Fiorentina's half with a big foot, or Zidane, who has the best ball-handling skills, Time was stalled on the court in order to smoothly drag overtime into a penalty shootout.

In the No.12 minute of the first half of extra time, Effenberg, Redondo and Rui Costa played consecutive two-to-one cooperation in the frontcourt, stirring up the defense line that Juventus players painstakingly managed Afterwards, Costa sent a through ball, Ronaldo jumped out from Blanc's side, and drove the ball into the Juventus goal before Peruzzi made a pounce!

"The goal is scored! Fiorentina scored a goal! The goal is... wait!" The commentator was about to cheer for Ronaldo's goal, but found that the referee Cragg did not indicate that the goal was valid, but announced that Ronaldo Offside first, "The referee signaled that the goal is invalid! How is this possible! Is Cragg blind? This is obviously a textbook anti-offside goal!"

"Damn it! Which eye of yours saw me offside?" Seeing that the goal was blown off by the referee, the furious Ronaldo immediately wanted to rush over to argue with the referee, but the alien was about to make a move , he was stopped by his teammates, and with a gentle reassurance, Ronaldo finally calmed down.

Lippi heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the referee calling the goal invalid. He was really taken aback by Ronaldo's goal just now.

On the other side, Capello was angrily denouncing referee Cragg's call to the fourth official at this time.Seeing the embarrassing expression on the referee Cragg's face, and the fact that the German did not order Capello to return to the Fiorentina bench at all, it is obvious that the referee also realized what kind of mistake he made just now.

"Cragg made an extremely serious mistake in this penalty. He blew off an undisputed goal in Fiorentina, and this penalty is likely to have a huge impact on the outcome of the entire final." In the live broadcast room, The commentator is complaining for Fiorentina, "Cragg's performance in this game can be said to be quite good. He controlled the atmosphere on the field while ensuring the smoothness of the game, but this misjudgment is a huge stain. If Fiorentina lose the game in the end, Cragg will definitely be the most hated person in Fiorentina fans after the game."

After the game restarted, the Fiorentina player who was blown off a good ball obviously couldn't recover from this misjudgment, and many of them made low-level mistakes in the next game.

But fortunately, Juventus did not intend to take the initiative to attack, so these mistakes were quickly covered up, the game entered a stalemate, and the originally lively scene began to fall silent, making people drowsy.

In this way, in this slightly dull atmosphere, Fiorentina finally failed to break through Juventus again in overtime.At the same time, as the referee Craig blew the whistle announcing the end of overtime, the Champions League final finally entered the moment that made everyone fearful, that is, the cruel penalty shootout!

"The 120-minute game is over! Both sides failed to score in the entire overtime game! Next, the game will enter an exciting penalty shootout! Which team can win after the game? Take the big ear cup, let us wait and see!"
