Speaking of Anelka, the French striker who moved to Real Madrid for a sky-high fee last summer fell into the same predicament as his compatriot Henry.Like Henry, Anelka, who came to a new environment, did not integrate well into Real Madrid's tactical system. Instead, he fell into a scoring drought, which naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of Real Madrid fans.

Former Spanish national team coach Clemente even said bluntly in an interview: "The money used to buy Anelka is more valuable if it is used for charity."

However, unlike Henry, who is still somewhat shy and young, Anelka's personality is more withdrawn, and his ability to cause trouble outside the court is also stronger.Therefore, in the face of accusations and criticisms from all sides, Anelka did not respond to people's doubts with goals, but caused more troubles with practical actions, which further confirmed people's negative views on him !

Therefore, Bosque, as the acting head coach of Real Madrid, did not write Anelka's name in the starting list in this game, but put him on the bench-in Bosque's eyes, Anelka He has the ability, but his characteristic of fighting alone does not have any advantages when encountering players whose personal abilities are all top-notch in Europe. Letting this French striker start the game will not bring Real Madrid any benefits on the field. It will bring unnecessary confusion to the team.

Of course, if the opponent is replaced by Bayern Munich or Valencia who also play overall football, but the individual defensive ability is not outstanding, then Bosque will choose to put Abelka in the starting list to further strengthen the offense, instead of Send Savio as an assaulter to ensure that the wing attack will not be strangled by the opponent.

After talking about the home team Real Madrid, let's look at Fiorentina. Heynckes' starting list is obviously a bit lacking in the eyes of many people: Toldo, Zambrotta, Nesta, Stam, Carlos, Redondo, Makelele, Effenberg, Ljungberg, Vieri and Shevchenko, these are the starting 11 for Fiorentina in the Champions League semi-final first leg!

Although the fans are very familiar with this group of Fiorentina players, and even have aesthetic fatigue because of it, it is undeniable that Fiorentina's starting lineup is indeed the most powerful among European clubs today. One of the powerful starting 11!

Of course, if Ljungberg is replaced by Ronaldo who cannot play due to injury, then even one of these can be removed.

When the 22 players from Fiorentina and Real Madrid took their positions in their respective halfs, the referee of the game, the Swede Frisk, blew his whistle to announce the official start of the game!

After Frisk blew the opening whistle, Real Madrid, who won the kick-off right, quickly launched an offensive from both wings of the stadium to Fiorentina under the organization of Seedorf!

Facing Real Madrid's side attack, the Fiorentina players on the defensive side did not panic: Redondo and Makelele immediately built a barrier in front of the defense to guard against Savio Wait for the wide players to cut in and shoot, and Seedorf waits for the midfielder to insert a long shot.

Seeing that Fiorentina are so strict about their own internal cuts, Savio naturally has no interest in dribbling the ball into the crowd. Although he is very confident in his dribbling skills, the Brazilian winger is not a brainless young man. , He knows how unwise it is to challenge Redondo and Makelele's defense alone, as well as Effenberg's defense.

Therefore, Savio, who gave up the idea of ​​cutting in, suddenly changed direction, and then used two consecutive bicycle pedals. After using fake moves to force Zambrotta to dare not easily stick up to defend himself, he swung his left foot to A cross!

Zambrotta reacted immediately, desperately stretching his right foot to try to stop Savio's cross, but the Brazilian's kick timing was quite good, the ball just passed in front of Zambrotta After flying over and avoiding his defense, he went straight to Florence's penalty area!

At the same time, Morientes standing in the restricted area of ​​Fiorentina and tens of thousands of Real Madrid fans at the scene showed the tacit understanding between him and Raul.I saw that the young Spanish center forward lightly hit the flying ball with his head, and ferried Savio's cross to the feet of Raul who was hidden behind him and had no one to guard him!

After receiving a header from his striker partner and friend, the Golden Boy of Real Madrid glanced at Toldo, who was waiting in front of him, flicked the ball with his left foot to avoid a shooting angle, and prepared to push the far corner of the goal!

Raul believes that under such circumstances, even the famous Toldo cannot stop him from scoring goals!

Although Toldo was indeed powerless to stop Raul's close-range attack, it does not mean that others could not stop it—just when Raul bent his bow and was about to shoot the ball into the goal in front of him, A crisp whistle made the Real Madrid No. 7 stop his movements abruptly!

Raul, who didn't know what went wrong, looked suspiciously at the place where the whistle sounded, but his question was quickly answered - there, the linesman held a small flag in his hand expressionlessly, indicating that Morientes was offside first when receiving the ball, Real Madrid's attack was invalid!

It turned out that at the moment when Savio made a pass, the other three Fiorentina defenders took a step forward, throwing Raul and Morientes in the offside position at the same time!

In this way, the Fiorentina defenders used a successful offside to prevent Real Madrid's first round of attack after the start of the game!

At this time, the fans also saw the scene just happened through the slow-motion replay on the big screen of the stadium. Most of them were amazed by the tacit understanding of the Fiorentina defense line. After all, creating an offside is a very test of the defender's ability And the tacit defensive method, as long as one person fails to keep up with his teammates in time and fails to leave Morientes and Raul in the offside position in time, then Fiorentina will give the Real Madrid players a single-handed goal in vain. !

It is precisely because of this that when seeing Fiorentina's defenders make such a decisive and resolute offside move, people will be full of praise for it, because few teams dare to play in such a semi-final of the Champions League. On important occasions, this kind of win-or-win tactic is used!

However, although Fiorentina's offside tactics were very successful this time, Real Madrid fans obviously would not buy the visiting team's account. They booed in the stands one after another, putting pressure on Fiorentina players and referees!

After all, for the fans, they don't care whether the penalty is correct, as long as it is beneficial to the team they support.
