Another reason for the situation of the police being a big enemy was that during a press conference held in the hotel where the Lazio team arrived in Gijón, their head coach Domenech Cassel made no secret of his arrogance about the victory: "The competition in Serie A is getting tougher, so we want to be able to qualify from the group as soon as possible and concentrate on the league ......"

When a Spanish reporter asked Cassel if this sentence meant that Lazio was bound to win this game. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Yes, neither I nor the team need to hide our confidence and desire to win, that's normal, who wouldn't want to win?" Cassel replied.

Then, from the Italian side, there was another revelation that Lazio's 34-year-old goalkeeper Peruzzi was asked about his impression of Sporting Gijón in an interview with Roma Sport, and the old goalkeeper said Albertini's name, and then he couldn't remember the names of any other Sporting Gijón players.

Italian teams generally do not pay attention to the League Cup, in addition, perhaps really as Lazio coach Cassel said, Lazio should concentrate on the league, this is because currently in the Serie A, Lazio in nine rounds of league games, only three wins, three draws and three losses, ranking eleventh in the league, so, there is a possibility that Lazio is more or less absent-minded about this game, and Peruzzi's words may not be deliberately provocative, he may indeed only know that Albertini, an old rival, plays for Sporting Gijón.

But, in any case, the nonchalant attitude of the Lazio manager and their players, and Cassel's confidence in victory, in fact, gave the impression that Lazio thought they would win the game with ease, which made Sporting Gijón angry.

Gijón's media criticised Lazio for their arrogance, citing Sporting Gijon's recent 4-0 win at Real Madrid as an example to warn the Italians to beware of the cries of defeat.

"Teach the Italians a hard lesson!" - this is the title of "The Voice of Gijón", which can be called the pre-war text of the game.

The Italians' arrogant attitude also infuriated the Gijón fans, so even though the game was a midweek match, the Estadio El Molinon was almost full.

"Give me a hard lesson, Lazio!" Leon almost shouted as he made the final battle mobilization in the locker room, "Use your feet to show your arrogant opponents that we have the ability to beat them up!"

***********

As soon as the focus of Group C of the UEFA Cup group stage began, Sporting Gijón showed the momentum of the home team, without any testing in midfield, and Sporting Gijón hit the Lazio goal with their first attack.

In this game, Leon sent the best and strongest eleven men he could send.

Goalkeeper Valencia, central defenders Hierro and Pepe. The left and right wing-backs are Fabio Grosso and Branislav Ivanovic respectively.

The four players in midfield are Juan Carlos and Albertini. Left wing-back Franck Ribery, right wing-back Luka Modric.

Two strikers, Antonio Di Natale and Diego Milito.

Luka Modric started in place of Juan Mata who missed the game with an injury, while Branislav Ivanovic continued to win the favor of Leon with his excellent substitute performance against Real Madrid, snatching the starting XI from Alegre Alegre.

Excluding the injured Mata and Dorado, it can be said that the eleven players on this game now, this is the most capable lineup of Sporting Gijón at present, with the vigor of young people and the calm of veterans, which can be regarded as a more reasonable configuration.

On Lazio's side, Lazio at this time is far less than in its heyday, but, after all, it is a skinny camel bigger than a horse, and their starting eleven, Li Ang still all 'recognizes', basically all of them are 'old faces' in Serie A.

Their goalkeeper is 34-year-old Peruzzi, the centre-back duo is a partnership between 31-year-old Sivilla and 32-year-old veteran Negro, left-back is 26-year-old Zauri and right-back is 28-year-old Massimo Odo.

The midfield pairing was Gianni Keda, Manfredini and Liverani and veteran Dino Baggio.

Up front are veterans Di Canio and Inzaghi Jr.

Lazio's Inzaghi - Simeone Inzaghi is the younger brother of Philippe Inzaghi, who plays for AC Milan, and people are used to calling the former Inzaghi Jr.

The Inzaghi brothers have similar technical characteristics, that is, they have an excellent sense of position in front of goal, but the elder brother Pippo is too good in this regard, far surpassing his younger brother.

Inzaghi is characterized by his keen judgment of the ball, his agile posture, his off-ball running and his goal-grabbing kicks, which is the most typical opportunist.

The younger brother Inzaghi Jr. can be said to have more comprehensive skills than his older brother, because he has a strong body, and may be better than Inzaghi Jr. in terms of ball control and confrontation ability.

However, if Leon were to compare the Inzaghi brothers, he would give Inzaghi Jr. a very matching comment: except for his goalscoring ability, Inzaghi Jr. is better than his brother!

***********

Leon got Lazio's starting line-up and saw the configuration of their backline, and he had a plan in his heart. Lazio's centre-back duo is on the older side, and most notably, their two full-backs, Odd and Zauri, are both players who like to assist......

Leon's favourite thing is that the opposing full-backs are the type of players who are good at inserting assists, which means that Sporting Gijón's counter-attacks can make the opponent uncomfortable as long as they are sharp enough.

“…… Diego Milito!beautiful shot!Peruzzi made a brilliant save, and the former Italian goalkeeper was amazed by his performance, as if he had seen a young Peruzzi. ”

In addition, it is extremely important that Lazio's starting lineup, from goalkeeper to defender to midfielder and striker, the age of the players is generally older, which makes Leon happy, and in the face of such a team, Sporting Gijon's attacking youth storm definitely has a chance to show his talents.

Less than five minutes into the game, Leon took advantage of a dead ball opportunity to give a special explanation to Ribery, telling the French youth that this game was a stage for him to show his speed and technique!

And it was clear that the Lazios, who were not mentally prepared for the difficulty of this match, were caught off guard by the offensive of Sporting Gijón.

***********

Milito's powerful shot kicked off a frenzy of Sporting Gijón's attack, and wave after wave hit Lazio's goal, cheering on the cheers of the Sporting Gijón fans.

After receiving a header from Diego Milito in front of the court, Di Natale chested the ball, controlled the ball at his feet, and then spun in a circle, leaving his defender Gianni Keda a little dizzy, and suddenly crossed diagonally to the left.

Then people saw that after Ribery used his speed to make a trip to Negro, he suddenly cut inside, and when he was about to shoot from a distance, he knocked his heel, and Modric who followed up was a long-range shot, and the football was slightly higher than the crossbar!

"Sporting Gijón shot in succession, Lazio seemed to be clearly ill-prepared for this, he didn't expect his opponent to attack so hard!"

“…… Sporting Gijón played very aggressively on their home turf and the speed with which they got into the game was amazing!"

Of course, Leon's pre-match tactics were to strike first, and he was going to crush the proud Lazios with his attack.

What could be more suitable than a fallen Serie A giant, more suitable to test the offensive ability of Sporting Gijon at this time?!

The answer is no!

Leon used Lazio as a testing ground for Sporting Gijón's attacking skills!
