The Era of Emerald

ps: First ask for a recommendation ticket here, thank you everyone...

At the same time that Fiorentina won the first game, another group match in Group B of the Champions League has already sounded the whistle of the end of the game-Athletic Bilbao played at home with visiting Dutch giants Eindhoven in 10 and [-] minutes It was a two-to-two tie in time, and four players, Echeberia, Ursais, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Oyer each scored a goal in the game, allowing the two teams to end in a draw.starter

In this way, after only one round of the group stage, Fiorentina took the lead and ranked at the top of the Group B standings with three points!

Four days after the end of the first round of the Champions League, Fiorentina ushered in the second round of Serie A.

Speaking of which, the second opponent Fiorentina players face in the league is still their old acquaintances, that is, the Vicenza team that they have just played against them twice in the European Super Cup and the Italian Super Cup not long ago.

Regarding the result of this game, the vast majority of fans and the media are overwhelmingly optimistic about Fiorentina's away win. After all, in the two matches more than half a month ago, Fiorentina had the upper hand with one win and one tie, which will naturally attract more favor.

However, many people are confused by these appearances and have not noticed a very crucial element, that is, the Fiorentina players who just returned from the cold Norway to the warm Italy did not get enough rest time.

As soon as they return to China, they will go to another away game to continue the game. This is a very difficult test for many Fiorentina players, especially in terms of physical fitness and mental state.Moreover, even those Fiorentina players who just watched with the team and did not participate in the battle with Rosenborg also experienced varying degrees of fatigue due to the climate difference between Norway and Italy and the exhaustion of the journey.

Naturally, Vicenza will not let go of this great opportunity. Little Zhuge Guidolin made full use of the fatigue period of the Fiorentina side due to continuous traveling around, and took the lead in the game. Luca Toni and Larson In the No.12 and No.18 minutes of the game, the home team established a two-goal lead early on!

Although Vieri and Pirlo each used a goal in the following time to bring the two teams back to the same starting line, the goal of Vicenza, who played with the main force, was to win a victory at home. Clearly unwilling to be satisfied with the result of a draw.

Therefore, after being equalized by Fiorentina, the Vicenza players took advantage of their physical strength and continued to attack the goal guarded by Toldo.And their efforts, when the game entered the stoppage time period, were favored by the goddess of luck.

"Goal! Ambrosini! Massimo Ambrosini! Wonderful header!" This is the passionate roar of the commentator in the third minute of stoppage time in the second half, " Three to two! Vicenza took advantage of a front corner kick at the last moment of the game, and Ambrosini beat Fiorentina!"

Accompanied by the hoarse roar of the commentator, Fiorentina suffered their first defeat in the league this season at the Romeo Monti Stadium.

As soon as the news of this defeat came out, many quick-thinking teams immediately realized that although Fiorentina had introduced powerful players like Makelele and Gattuso in the past summer, it seemed that their overall strength had not been affected. Too much weakening, but in fact, the current Viola team can no longer deal with multi-line combat as calmly and easily as in the past few seasons.

This discovery naturally gave many head coaches the confidence to overthrow Fiorentina's dominance. They all believed that as long as they could seize the opportunity, they would definitely be able to kill Fiorentina, who was already strong in the outside world like Vicenza!

It's just that these people who are in a state of extreme excitement have obviously forgotten a very important point, that is, the reason why Fiorentina lost to Vicenza, on the one hand, is because the players that Fiorentina used to rotate were not as vigorous and sturdy as in previous years Yes, on the other hand, they had a smack against Rosenborg in Norway four days ago, and they were not in their best form at all.Under the combined effect of these two factors, Fiorentina lost to Vicenza in the away game.

It was precisely because of this defeat that after an unexpected away loss to Vicenza, Capello, who realized the root cause of the team's loss, quickly led the team back to Florence overnight.After returning to his home base camp, Capello first asked the players to disband and take a good rest for two days. After recovering almost, he went to concentrate on preparing for the third round of the league on the weekend.

According to the schedule made by the Italian Football Association, Fiorentina still have to play away games in this league.This time, Viola's opponent is AC Milan coached by the attacking lunatic Zaccheroni.

Due to the poor record of the Rossoneri last season, it was removed from the g14 organization, and this Serie A giant will usher in its centenary next year, so Berlusconi finally opened his wallet this summer. The team has sufficient financial support, and only one request is made, that is, at the end of this season, Zaccheroni must lead the team to win a championship trophy to celebrate the club's birthday!

So, after discussing signings with Zaccheroni, Galliani embarked on a long journey with a thick checkbook in his arms.Under the offensive of this kind of money shells, many teams have cleanly announced their disarm and surrender, exchanging their main players and even core players for a lot of dollars.

The arrival of Bierhoff and Herwig at high prices from Udinese has effectively made up for AC Milan's lack of striker and right back; Galliani opposed the actions of Ambrosini and Koko, but Galliani dug Federico Jonti, who had played briefly in Fiorentina, and strengthened the depth of the defensive midfielder's bench; Coupled with the purchase of the Argentine national team's main central defender Robert Ayala from Naples, which was unfortunately relegated last season, it has greatly strengthened the safety factor of Costacurta's defense line full of holes after a long-term downturn. Well, at least on paper It seems so.

At the same time, Galliani's shot also kept Mainey and French defender Desailly who should have left before the start of the season, so that Zaccheroni can have more good cards to call during the season.

Of course, Galliani also made some puzzling transactions. For example, he brought in Dida, Ahmedabad and Aaron at the goalkeeper position before the meritorious veteran Rossi left the team. The three players of Biati and Lehmann put AC Milan in an embarrassing situation of overcrowding in the goalkeeper position!

Objectively speaking, although there are some flaws in some transfers, on the whole AC Milan's signings this summer are quite successful. While cleaning up a lot of redundant staff, they injected enough fresh blood to complete the renewal of the team replacement.

As for how much combat effectiveness this new AC Milan team can exert, this time the match against Fiorentina is a big test for Zaccheroni and his team!
