Trapani's air defense has always been a weakness, if there are experienced players, experience can make up for the height gap, but the problem is that Trapani's backline has never had the kind of very experienced players, Barzagli, Victor which is not mixed up with Trapani from the lower leagues, they still seem to be quite difficult against the top center forwards.

In the past, it was better to have a Natali, but then Natali went to Udinese, and Rinaudo was tall, not only lacking strength but also lacking experience, and Trapani no longer had a central defender who was more than 190 tall.

The arrival of Delas was recognized by Deschamps, and he also took a fancy to Delas's air defense capabilities.

At this point, Trapani's transfer operation has been basically completed, and Trapani still has money to operate, but the key is to look at the right place, there is still the possibility of reinforcement in the midfield, and Sailly is actively operating, wanting to bring in a player who has significantly improved the strength of the team's midfield.

Ahead of the away game against Sporting Lisbon, Hugo made a big commitment to the team, promising a €10 million bonus if the team can reach the Champions League.

Hugo's own opinion is that it is more difficult to play in the Champions League play-offs this season than last season, one of which is that the team's lineup has changed a little, and Deschamps has made a lot of tactical adjustments; The two opponents are not the same, this time against Sporting Lisbon, Portugal's traditional powerhouse, they are especially good at attacking, Trapani's weak point also happens to be in defense, Deschamps has not been in charge of the team for long, Hugo cannot guarantee a qualitative change in the team's defense.

Hugo followed the team to Portugal, where he was warmly welcomed by Sporting Lisbon president Daginha, and the two clubs have worked together in the past, but there has been less interaction over the years, and Trapani is now much more cautious about bringing in players from abroad.

The hierarchy is friendly, but the condition of the pitch is not very friendly, Sporting Lisbon missed out on the UEFA Cup at home last season, they are looking to make a comeback in the new season, to prove themselves in the Champions League, and the home game against them looks imposing, Trapani's starting midfielders are Essien and Pizarro, and Trapani's parallel position is completely unable to contain Sporting Lisbon's possession.

The main reason is that the team's tactical understanding of Deschamps is not thorough enough, and Deschamps's idea has not been realized by Trapani's players.

So Trapani was in a passive situation, Deschamps couldn't make temporary tactical adjustments, shrunk the formation, and relied on tenacious defense to draw with Sporting Lisbon in the first half.

In the second half, Deschamps made a tactical change, letting the veteran Miku come on the field, the starting center Vieri went off the field, changed the formation to 433, Klose played a single arrow, the situation on the field improved a lot, Trapani clearly dominated in the second half, and finally relied on Ribery's assist, Miku's inserted header scored, 1:0 victory over Sporting Lisbon.

After a good start to the new season, this away result is ideal, back at home, a clearer understanding of the whole Sporting Lisbon Trapani team, Deschamps should be able to adjust the team's form.

At the same time as Trapani played in Europe, the Italian football world was chaotic again, the Italian football world has always been relatively dirty and chaotic, Hugo is naturally not afraid of the rules of the game in a rich game, but he can't stand the Italian football leagues at all levels Many teams are not abiding, match-fixing, gambling happens from time to time, well, Hugo also faked, but he was lucky to escape.

Some teams are not so lucky, next year is the World Cup year, it stands to reason that the league should start early, Serie A is the league that started relatively late in several major leagues, originally scheduled to open the new season in mid-August, but now it has encountered problems.

According to the judgment handed down last week by the Lazio Regional Court, Genoa and Torino were punished for demotion. In particular, the Disciplinary Committee of the Football Association has recently rejected the appeal of the Genoa club, deciding that they will be promoted to the first division next season and will be deducted three points from the beginning.

Unlike Genoa, who were punished for their alleged involvement in match-fixing, Torino and second division clubs Perugia and Salernitana failed to pass the registration required by the Football Association due to financial problems. Historically, such bankrupt clubs have been relegated to the second division, as Fiorentina did in 2002. However, this time the Football Association said that it could be extrajudicial and only punish these clubs to be relegated to the second division, namely Torino to the second division and Perugia and Salernitana to the third division, but in the meantime, the players of these clubs will be allowed to transfer freely.

Due to a series of surprises, the Football Association postponed the announcement of the new season schedule to August 19, which obviously had a big impact on the preparation of the teams. On the other hand, two places in Serie A have been vacated due to the fact that Torino and Genoa, two promoted teams, have been stripped of their first division qualifications, and the Football Association wants to give them to Bologna and Reggina.

As long as the good guys are optimistic about Carraro and others, how can Hugo be less troubled, returning to Italy from Lisbon, and instructing his cousin Morek to tell reporters in an interview: "In my opinion, this is not fair to the other two teams, we should give the Serie B team more chances!" ”

Hugo said this is not untargeted, not his head is pumping, he has to offend Bologna and Reggina, but because the current time has started immediately after the league, Serie B can be on Serie A according to the ranking is Treviso and Ascoli, first of all, their strength is not strong, and secondly, they are really on Serie A, there is not much transfer time left for them, and it is almost impossible to make a big difference.

In this way, they are completely rookies in Serie A, and Trapani's current situation certainly hopes that there will be more rookies in the league, and Trapani is also a strong team, this mentality is normal.

Now that Trapani has spoken, many Serie A teams have also spoken, okay, okay, it's the two of them, and the relegation places for next season will be determined at once, which is so good, it must be better than Bologna and Reggina staying in Serie A.

Hugo did it very unwisely this time, because the controversy within the Football Association was also very loud, Hugo didn't know what Galliani and Moggie were trying to do, not only did they oppose the expansion of the army, but they also favored Treviso and Ascoli in this incident, but they were not as high-profile as Hugo, and now Hugo did what he offended, and they also rarely echoed Hugo.

Now with the deterioration of the Italian football environment, the glory of the small World Cup has long been over, the accumulation of many problems has led to the current market is very poor, almost every team is facing business problems, unable to balance income and expenditure, the attendance rate of Serie A is getting worse and worse, bankruptcy is not uncommon, Haoqiang is shrinking the silver root, not to mention the non-giant team, Trapani fans have to be glad that they have a good owner, wholeheartedly invest money, this summer Trapani has become the focus of the entire Serie A, buy and sell, Even the small boss Victor was sent away, and all kinds of media gathered in Trapani, which brought Trapani a lot of extra income.

The Football Association finally echoed the public's request, allowing Treviso and Ascoli to come on as substitutes, and then also announced the schedule of the new season, the first round of the new season will start on August 28, Trapani also had the second leg against Sporting Lisbon, before the second leg, Trapani brought in the second goalkeeper Fontana, the goalkeeper position, to complete the last piece of the puzzle, Trapani's president Morek announced in an interview that the team's transfer has ended, and that is the end of it.

In the 05-06 season, Trapani's first team had a total of 24 players.

Goalkeepers: Kameni, Fontana, Gilini

Defenders: Maggio, McConn, Barzagli, Samuel, Dellas, Peruso, Evra, Jankulovski

Midfielders: Mascherano, Padoin, Zabaleta, Miku, Li Tie, Essien, Franck Ribery, Messi.

Forwards: Toney, Vieri, Klose, Pelle, Borriello

The first team has been reduced to a certain extent compared to last year, after Zabaleta's return from loan, Trapani kept him, and in terms of full-backs, because Trapani's full-backs are all full-backs, Trapani has never been supplemented, it is really not enough, and Trapani can choose from the youth team.
