Volume 3 The Myth of the Gunslinger Chapter 286 Promotion, Defection, and Dismissal

Ranieri was born in 1951 in Rome's Santa Saba region. QuAnBeN。 At the age of 16, he entered the Roma youth system. He spent most of his time wandering. In 2009, when Spalletti was dismissive, Rosella decided to invite Ranieri to take over, and the latter chose to take over without thinking. "Rome has a lot of characteristics, and Wendit's lyrics are a good example of that. In conclusion, Rome is a fantastic city. I couldn't turn down an offer from Rome to coach. I left Rome 36 years ago. At that time, I was just a young man chasing my dreams, and I didn't know if football was the future. After receiving the call, I made the decision to go home. I want to lead the team in my heart to compete for glory.

Ranieri has never hidden his love and pride in his home city. "I believe that everyone will be proud of their hometown. I think the Romans probably had a little more pride because of our own character. In my opinion, the difference in this comes mainly from our ancestors. For example, if the English always say the proverb when talking about a difficult job, 'Rome was not built in a day', this sentence is a good illustration of the characteristics of Rome, if you look at Italy, if you look at Europe, Rome is Rome. ”

Ranieri understands that the city of Rome was not built in a day, and he is full of hope to make his hometown team return to its former glory, but his time is running out, these two Champions League knockout games are his last chance, if he can't eliminate Arsenal, or can't get out of the tournament beautifully, only the fate of the class awaits him, the 60-year-old tinker is tired of wandering, he must now make a final effort to win, although the knockout rounds are two, but Ranieri knows very well what it means to go to the Emirates Stadium.

The tinkerer shouted from the sidelines, pointing fingers and trying to give each player his own instructions.

Journalists understand Ranieri's current situation, and every few minutes the camera is focused on the manager sitting in the crater, who understands that after this game, the manager could be one of the post-match focuses.

Players on the pitch such as Totti, Doni and Ranieri have been at odds, but they are all in the same trench at the moment, because according to Italian media, Unicredit has agreed to sell 61% of the shares of AS Roma to the United consortium for 110 million euros, and it is not surprising that the club will change hands before March. American businessman Di Benedetto, the most promising new owner of Roma, plans to spend €40 million in the transfer market this summer, doubling to €80 million if the team can reach next season's Champions League. The arrival of the new owner is bound to make his mark on the team, and every player who performs poorly will be the target of purge, and now it is not only manager Ranieri who is worried about his fate, but also the players of Roma who have to think more about their fate.

The Roma team launched a counterattack, they are like a pack of wolves, the already somewhat old Roman prince Totti lifted his spirits, played the role of the head wolf, constantly shouted at his teammates and encouraged them to cheer up and win the game, in fact, from the beginning to the present, although Arsenal has the upper hand, the threat of attack is not enough, and did not show an overwhelming momentum, and their previous BUG-level performance that swept all the ghosts and snakes is very different, which is why the Roma team still has the confidence to win.

However, Arsenal also began to show their strong strength under the high pressure of their opponents.

In the 36th minute of the game, Li Huan crossed after attracting the opponent's defense on the side, Van Persie, who was not good at heading, rubbed the ball back to the front of the penalty area, Nasri chest stopped his teammates behind him, and Wilshere, who was inserted in the back row, suddenly raised his foot and shot from a distance of about 25 meters from the goal without adjustment.

The ball was fast and floating, with a little arc. Brazilian goalkeeper Doni was caught off guard and was stunned by Arsenal's successive transfers, he didn't keep up with Arsenal's rhythm at all, and Wilshere shot straight at goal before he could even see who was the last to touch the ball.

Dhoni's hand touched the air and Wilshere's shot flew past his hand and into the net.

2:1.

The Stadio Olimpico fell silent, the Roma fans were like they had been beaten and couldn't make a sound, and the Arsenal fans who traveled with the team were boiling again, jumping up and shouting to celebrate the team's victory.

"Beautiful match for the beautiful goalWilshere's shot is like a jewel in the crown, like a dessert on the cake, making Arsenal's attack unusually perfect in the quarter-finals beckoning to Arsenal Roma are behind at home, two away goals, the Roma have reached the most dangerous time, even if they can equalize, the probability of them advancing will definitely not exceed 10 percent, for Roma, Roma fans and Ranieri, this is not good news......"

Ranieri was a little dazed at the moment of Wilshere's shot, his brain was blank, and he didn't expect Wilshere to shoot, in this position, this young man who is less than 18 years old has the right to fire at will, which can only be said that Wilshere played too excitedly, and forgot all about it at all, and Doni and Roma's goal, as well as him Ranieri became a victim.

The knockout round is 180 minutes, but everyone on earth knows that Roma's chances are only 90 minutes, and if they can't get an ideal score in this game, they don't have to think about anything anymore, they can only wash and sleep.

After Arsenal scored the second goal, the Roma team's counterattack was more ferocious, as if there were some styles when they won the championship, Taddai, Perrotta, Totti, Menes, and Vucinic ran and tackled one by one, and then attacked, and the big-name stars in Serie A on weekdays all gave up, and everyone besieged Arsenal like blue-collar workers.

Arsenal saw that Roma's momentum was very fierce and his movements were not small, so he was unwilling to fight them hard, so he contracted the formation a little and pushed Walket and Li Huan upwards, intending to hit Roma's counterattack.

Roma also saw Arsenal's intentions, but they had no choice, at the moment they had to attack and attack again.

The Roma team's attack only lasted six minutes, Arsenal launched a quick counterattack by Li Huan in the defense, Li Huan took the ball from the side to shake off the opponent's defense, and drove straight into the cross near the bottom line of the Roman team, the defender of the Roman team Reese returned to the defense in time, he wanted to kick the ball out of the bottom line, but Li Huan's passing footwork was weird, his foot just touched the ball, and the ball spun rapidly, so that Reese lost control of the ball, and the ball that should have flown to the bottom line flew to the net by magic.

Donei could not have imagined that his teammate was an undercover agent for Arsenal, and the ball flew into the net not far from his feet, and he didn't even have time to make a move, he could only watch the ball pass by him.

3:1.

Li Huan was stunned for a moment, not expecting the opponent's defender to help him hit the ball into the goal, he laughed happily and ran to the front of the stands with his hands raised.

At this time, the fans of the Roma team were completely enraged by the poor performance of their defenders, and they stood up to cheer for Li Huan and this own goal, and the fans of Roma shouted loudly "Rieser is good" and "Ranieri is out of class"

The commentator was stunned by this sudden scene, "What's the matter, the Rome Olympic Stadium turned into the Emirates Stadium in an instant, Li Huan enjoyed the applause of the audience, Ranieri and Reese were applauded God, this change is really too big." However, Arsenal played really well, Roma finished their Champions League can draw an end, Ranieri is also finished, his coaching career in Rome is over, after this game, Roma will enter the Montella era, the tinkerer is just a tinker after all, he has no luck to become a legend in the same team as Wenger and Ferguson, although he did not do badly, whether in Chelsea or Juventus......"

The subsequent game time is torment for the Roma team, Roma fans continue to cheer for Arsenal, constantly drink Rome's inverted color, almost every player's mistake will be named and cheered by the fans, under the defection of their own fans, no team can play calmly, and it is impossible to play well, although then Arsenal did not strengthen the offensive, but in front of the opponent's porous defense, they have countless opportunities, and finally Li Huan and Fabregas, Van Persie each scored a goal, Arsenal beat Roma 6-1 away to secure a place in the quarter-finals.

After the game, Ranieri highly praised Arsenal and Arsene Wenger, he said that Arsenal is a great team, their current performance is fantastic, more artistic than Barcelona, more aggressive, and said that Li Huan deserves to win the FIFA Ballon d'Or, and there is no one better than him on the planet for the time being.

After summing up the game, the Italian coach announced his resignation in a surprise and straightforward manner: "I'm always thinking about what's best for Roma. I'm a man on the pitch and so will I am, so I'm not going to sit back and wait for the club to fire me and then get a compensation because I'm Roma. After today's game, I think it's necessary to give an account to the Red Wolves fans. After the final whistle, I went back to the dressing room to thank the players and I made the decision to resign. I hope that my decision will inspire Rome to get out of this predicament. ”
