The Era of Emerald

It wasn't until a sharp whistle sounded that Moji and Zhuang Mingge, who had been circling on Baggio's transfer issue, realized that the match had already started. Both sides unanimously put aside the topic just now and brought the topic of the conversation to the match.

"Manager Moggi, your head coach is so courageous, he dared to put Baggio on the bench and let that young man named Del Piero take his place. Is he looking down on us Fiorentina? "

"Hehe, of course it's not what you think, Chairman Corleone. You must know that we can't play all our cards in the first place against a strong opponent like Florence. That way, there will be no room for counterattack... On this point, I agree with the coach Lippi... Do you know how much pressure Fiorentina have put on us this season, preparing for one of our most important games of the season, but I am exhausted... Huh, after this game, no matter what the result is, I can sleep well."

Pack!You continue to pretend!Zhuang Mingge gritted his teeth with hatred, but there was nothing he could do with this old fox.

Moji's "cunning" made Zhuang Mingge even more convinced that this guy is really suitable for playing football. Among other things, between black and white football, he can call black as white and white as black , this is a "black and white" take-all skill!

Zhuang Mingge's "offensive" was once again easily resolved by Mo Laohu.At this time, the on-site commentator began to introduce the list of players from both sides, and what Zhuang Minge heard was more cheers from the fans - the decisive battle on the field has already begun!

"Welcome to the Alpi Stadium! This is the 94-95 season, the No. 12 round of Serie A, Juventus vs. Fiorentina at home!"

"Now let me introduce the lineups of both sides for this game...Juventus are in a good situation. The team's injured midfielder Paulo Sousa returned to the line of fire in this game. Their coach Lippi sent A [-] lineup, the goalkeeper Peruzzi, the four defenders from right to left are Torricelli, Correll, Juliano and Pesotto; in the midfield, the new captain of the French national team Didier Deschamps With Paulo Sousa in the middle, Antonio Conte as the right midfielder, Di Livio as the left midfielder, Vialli and the teenager Del Piero as the striker...It seems that Coach Lippi is still very afraid of the offensive ability that Florence has shown this season , he put Baggio, who was in poor form recently, on the bench, and activated the [-] formation to strengthen the team's defense..."

Zhuang Mingge, who was sitting in the VIP box, had to admit that this was indeed a lineup full of vigor and balance of offense and defense. Needless to say, this must be the masterpiece of "Silver Fox" Lippi-a set that is very suitable for the overall combat thinking. line-up.

"Fiorentina still use their most commonly used four-four-two formation. This lineup is not much different from what we expected before the game. The goalkeeper is Toldo, and the four defenders are from right to left. Lara, Felicano and Lanna; in midfield, Di Biagio served as a single midfielder, in front of him were Effenberg and Kripa, and Djorkaeff served as a midfielder; forward Partners are Batistuta and youngster Filippo Inzaghi."

While the commentator was introducing the situation of the two sides, the players on the court had already started a real battle. The "Silver Fox" Lipi sitting on the coaching bench of the home team was expressionless, with a cigar in his mouth— — This is his habit, but now Serie A prohibits anyone from smoking in the competition venue, and Lippi can only seek a little spiritual comfort by smoking this cigar.

……

The game kicked off in the mid-court battle between the two sides.

Fiorentina's midfield is the strongest part of the entire team. The combination of Effenberg and Djorkaeff is far more effective than one plus one equals two. Kripa, who is a full-time defensive midfielder, is followed by Di Biagio, who is on the rise. It is because of this midfielder that Fiorentina have the confidence to challenge other teams.

And what about Juventus?Their midfield is also very strong. The defensive ability of the Juventus midfield led by Didier Deschamps is enough to suffocate any team. Although Antonio Conte is a right midfielder, he is more active in the middle of the midfield. Use your undying physical ability and the spirit of fighting for every ball to add thickness to Juventus' midfield defense. Although Di Livio's talent on the left is average, his back and forth sprints on the side have indeed added a lot to Juventus Tactical changes, and Paulo Sosa is another Redondo or Albertini when he is not troubled by injuries. Juventus's midfield combination is not inferior to the midfield of any strong European team.

What does the intense scrambling in midfield mean?It often means not being brilliant, but constant fouls-this game is no exception. In just 5 minutes, both sides of the game received two fouls each. Didier Deschamps just brought down Djorkaeff , Di Biagio overthrew Paulo Sosa here, Juventus's midfielder had the upper hand in running ability, while Fiorentina's midfielder overwhelmed the opponent in terms of technology and creativity.

The first shot of the game came late in the 7th minute. Effenberg, who suddenly inserted an assist from the midfielder, took a long shot from outside the penalty area and was blocked by his former teammate Juliano with his body.

Juventus's offense is more concentrated on the left. In addition to Di Livio, the teenager Del Piero often pulls to this side to attack, and Pesotto, who often inserts assists, gives Fiorentina the right. Billindley brought great pressure.

However, this player than Lindley is not very good, but he is very active in running, and at the same time has the advantages of a traditional Italian defender-good personal defensive skills.Whenever he can't resist the opponent's attack, he will decisively use foul tactics, and he is very smart, and his foul moves are not enough to catch cards.

Therefore, in just a few minutes, Bilindelli fouled Di Livio and Piero successively. Although he was warned by the referee, it effectively slowed down Juventus' offensive momentum.

Juventus did not complete the first shot until the 10th minute. After Del Piero was brought down by Billindelli, Di Livio, who got the ball, directly shot the goal from the outside of the penalty area. Toldo flung himself into his arms easily.

Soon, Fiorentina completed the attack again. After Djorkaeff broke through Juliano, he distributed the ball to Batistuta. Batistuta slammed the ball vigorously without stopping the ball.

"Judging from the current situation, Fiorentina, who are playing away from home, seems to have an advantage... They are not at all inferior to Juventus at home, and Inzaghi's dexterity has given Juventus' two tall central defenders a headache."

"It's a pity that because Lanna and Bilindelli dare not move lightly, Fiorentina lacks wide crosses. Otherwise, Batty's ability should make Juventus swallow the bitter fruit."

"However, Juventus' defense is still very good. Although Fiorentina scored twice, they haven't forced Peruzzi to make a save. It's really hard to say who will win this game if they play like this. .”

During the discussion of the commentators, the competition on the field became more and more intense. In the next 5 minutes, the ball did not even leave the midfield, and neither side could smoothly pass the ball to their own offensive players.

In this stalemate, set-pieces often become opportunities to break the deadlock of the game.

When the game progressed to No. 20 minutes, Djorkaeff cut in from the left, Torricelli was forced to foul him, and then the Frenchman took advantage of this free kick to shoot directly.

Juventus goalkeeper Peruzzi's goalkeeping skills are very good, but his shortcomings are also obvious, that is, he is 1 meters tall and weighs 81 kilograms, which makes him look very bulky when saving. Remember that the free kick that went straight to the far corner of the goal took advantage of Peruzzi's shortcoming to the greatest extent!

Djorkaeff's free kick flew into Juventus' gate before Peruzzi arrived!

Fiorentina lead the home team [-]-[-] at the Alpi Stadium!
