The Era of Emerald

ps: First, I would like to ask everyone for a recommendation ticket here...

Just a few days after Italy easily defeated Norway and advanced to the quarter-finals, the top eight list of this World Cup was freshly released under the anticipation of thousands of fans.

Brazil beat Chile, its old neighbor from South America, four to one, but Salas scored his fourth goal in this World Cup in the game, leaving his own glorious stroke; Zidane's French team relied on a golden goal from central defender Blanc in the 113th minute to kill the tenacious Paraguay instantly; the old German chariot; Davis, who was expelled by Hiddink in the European Cup two years ago Once with a long-range shot before the end of the game against Yugoslavia; between Croatia and Romania

Although the above seven games have no shortage of exciting clips and gimmicks to attract fans, the highlight is the confrontation between England and Argentina.

Although there is such an unexpected factor as Zhuang Mingge in this world, the war between Britain and Afghanistan is still as passionate as it has been in history: Irving scored the classic goal that made him famous overnight in this game, and Ayala and other famous players were there. Instantly the backdrop for the 18-year-old chaste boy; Batistuta caught up to Vieri with a penalty to take his tally to five goals in the World Cup ; Veron and Zanetti's wonderful free-kick in the frontcourt combined to break the goal made everyone who saw this goal feel refreshed.

Similarly, as in history, the young and energetic Beckham was irritated by the veteran Diego Simeone with continuous small actions and received a red card. Regarded as England's eternal sinner eliminated by the sworn enemy...

After the World Cup round of 7 is over, next, Italy will welcome their opponents in the World Cup quarter-finals at 3:04 pm on July 30rd, and they are also the hosts of this World Cup. The French national team led by three Juventus players, Didier Deschamps and Blanc.

For this game, Zhuang Mingge is naturally very concerned, because he knows in his heart that the Italian team in history fell at the feet of the French team in this quarter-final, and watched the Italian team defeat himself through a penalty shootout. The opponent finally reached the top and won the Hercules Cup that everyone dreamed of.

This time, with Zhuang Mingge, a little butterfly spoiling the situation, will the match between Italy and France produce a different result?

By the way, before the big war between Italy and France, the door of summer transfers in Italy has been slowly opened at 7:1 on July [-]st. Serie A teams have made moves one after another, bringing in targets that have already been booked or just picked up , Florence is no exception.

Hyypia, Makelele, Ljungberg... Except for the three who had already confirmed their transfer to Fiorentina before the opening of the World Cup, the remaining few players who did not have the task of the World Cup were under the operation of Antonioni and others They were also dug into the capital of the Renaissance.

Swiss midfielder Vogel was transferred from Zurich Grasshopper. His worth is only 150 million US dollars. Zurich's distressed financial situation and the player's eagerness to join the giants are the key reasons for such a low transfer fee.

Anderson Deco was sold to Viola by Benfica for a very low price of 800 million US dollars.It stands to reason that the Brazilian performed quite well in Benfica last season. Together with a group of teammates, he brought back the league championship that had been lost for many years for Benfica. It should only sell for a few million dollars.

However, due to the relationship between his own style of play and personal image, Deco's personal data is not very good, so he is just an ordinary midfielder in the eyes of this Portuguese super giant, and he is not worth much at all, so Benfica executives did not set a high threshold for Deco's transfer fee at all; coupled with his Brazilian nationality, he could not enter the talented Selecao. Branch worth.

Deco himself is also very excited about the opportunity to join Fiorentina. Although he knows that if he goes to Viola, he can only serve as a substitute for midfield superstars such as Redondo and Effenberg, but Ze Roberto is an example. Now, Deco thinks that if he also joins a top giant, he might be able to knock on the door of the Brazilian national team like Ze Roberto did!

Therefore, when the top management of Benfica didn't realize what kind of stupid thing they had done, Deco, who looked like a farmer, arrived in Florence in a low-key manner, signed his name on a six-year work contract, and joined The top club in Europe. (Note: It was only in 2001 that the European Commission stipulated that the contract period of professional players should be up to five years, so a six-year contract in 98 was not illegal)

Madavikia and Sun Jihai also announced their joining on this day. These two transfers made it the first time that Asian players appeared in the Fiorentina team. (Note: Although there were Japanese players who came to Florence for training before, they all trained with the youth team. They are trial players and cannot be counted as Florence's own people)

The transfer of Sun Jihai also made Fiorentina the most popular team in China overnight, and the sales of peripheral products and jerseys with Fiorentina also increased sharply because of this transfer; at the same time, after Sun Jihai confirmed the transfer After Fiorentina, the club received hundreds of sponsorship contracts from Chinese companies in just one week.

Although Kenyon did not sign all of these sponsorship contracts, but only selectively ate part of them, but these sponsorship fees alone were enough to offset Sun Jihai's transfer fee and salary, making Florence a lot of money.

Apart from these signings, Materazzi, who originally planned to leave the team, agreed to continue to play for Fiorentina for another season under the persuasion of Antonioni to help the team overcome the current difficulties-although he is an out-and-out villain on the court , but Materazzi is not ruthless off the field, because he still clearly remembers that when he was accused by the whole of Europe for inducing Mateus to leave the field, it was the club and his own boss who made him come forward. I gradually escaped this catastrophe.

Therefore, when Florence was in trouble, I should help out. Anyway, it's only been a year, and I should repay the help that year.When agreeing to Antonioni to stay in the team, Materazzi thought so.

In this way, when the World Cup was only in the quarter-finals, Fiorentina had basically completed all the signings, laying a good foundation for the upcoming new season!
