Volume 1 Chapter 377 Reaching the Group Stage (II)
“…… We still have a chance to look like two goals, in fact, as long as we score two goals, we can knock out Fiorentina with two goals in 45 minutes, which is by no means impossible, think about last season's Champions League final, although we are not Liverpool, but Fiorentina is not AC Milan, nothing is impossible, nothing cannot be done, as long as we have enough confidence and enthusiasm to ......"
In the dressing room, Sporting Lisbon coach Pesiero gave an impassioned speech to the players, calling on the players to fight for the club and their own honor, and under the encouragement of the coach, the players returned to the pitch with enthusiasm and confidence to win.
However, at the start of the second half, Sporting Lisbon's players were under fire from Fiorentina before they could get into the game.
Pesello is right, Sporting Lisbon is not Liverpool, Fiorentina is not AC Milan, this is a fact, not false at all, but Pecero forgot one thing, that is, AC Milan did not please Fiorentina under Fiorentina last season, one win and one draw made Fiorentina unbeaten against AC Milan.
What made Pesero and Sporting Lisbon's players even more unexpected was that Chen Yu broke through in the last game and became a superstar-level star.
In the second half, it was Fiorentina who kicked off first, the ball passed between Chen Yu and Di Natale, and returned to the midfield, this pass was decent, there was no abnormality, Chen Yu and Di Natale quickly stepped forward, and it was also step-by-step, there was nothing to doubt.
Sporting Lisbon's players were not alert, they were enthusiastic and bent on fighting Fiorentina to the death, the whole formation moved forward quickly, and the forward line and central midfielders pressed Fiorentina's ball-handler violently to prevent Fiorentina's ball from passing through the midfield.
Just when the overall formation of Sporting Lisbon was pushed forward by almost ten meters, Fiorentina's midfielder Fiore suddenly made a big kick, from the situation, it seems that under the pressure of the Sporting Lisbon striker, Fiore made a helpless move, but in fact, Maggio has a passing line, and has enough time to deal with the ball, this ball is an active long pass attack.
However, what the Sporting Lisbon players saw at the back was that their striker finally succeeded in forcing the opponent to kick wide, and they quickly judged the speed, height and landing point of the ball, and prepared to grab the ball, and at this time, they found that the ball found their striker Di Natale very accurately.
"Dangerous"
Goalkeeper Carini shouted.
At this time, the midfielders of Sporting Lisbon finally realized the danger, and the midfielders and defenders began to act, some went to grab the landing point, and some strengthened the marking of Chen Yu.
Chen Yu?
When they realized the danger, the two central defenders, Pinto and Beto, once again found that Chen Yu was not by their side.
The stadium is not big, and you can find that Chen Yu is in the gap between the two central defenders and full-backs, but if you want to catch up with Chen Yu, you can't do it in one step or two.
The ball was coming in a blink of an eye, but the players of Sporting Lisbon had just arrived at Di Natale's side, and they could not grab the landing point with Di Natale at all, they could only hope that Di Natale would not pass the ball, but carry the ball himself.
But Di Natale, who jumped in the air, was obviously not so stupid, and when he landed for the opponent to surround and steal, he swung his header in the air, and the ball flew accurately to the corner of the big penalty area, where Chen Yu was.
Even with his weird running position, Chen Yu didn't get much time to deal with the ball, he is Sporting Lisbon's number one enemy, and every player in Sporting Lisbon has the priority to defend, Chen Yu dodged the sight of the two central defenders, but the fullback Tyro saw it clearly, he quickly ran over to this side to defend, if Chen Yu wanted to stop the ball and shoot again, I'm afraid that Taylor would have a chance to intercept, or foul.
Chen Yu decided to hit a volley, and after binding Inzaghi's consciousness, Chen Yu was fully capable of completing such a shot.
The ball passed through Di Natale's ferry, the speed was not as fast as before, Chen Yu adjusted his body, facing the ball flying over, completely ignoring Taylor who was chasing from behind, and also ignoring Beto who ran from the front, his eyes stared at the flying ball without blinking, raised his legs high, and half-turned around with the supporting feet as the axis, driving the thighs, calves and feet to whip the falling ball like a whip, when the instep was in contact with the ball, Chen Yu roared, the muscles of the thighs and calves tightened at the same time, and the ball was like being hit by a giant tree, whistling and flying to the left side of the goal.
Without a doubt, it was a beautiful shot, scored or not. The fans in the stands couldn't help but shout hello the moment Chen Yu shot the goal.
Portugal international Carini is by no means mediocre, he is not consistent compared to Buffon, Kahn and Carillas, but he reacts quickly, moves quickly, has great courage and is decisive in attack.
Chen Yu's volley action was actually very fast, and a series of actions were extremely fast, but Carini still accurately judged the angle and direction of Chen Yu's shot, he flew up and jumped up, stretched out his arms in the air like an ape, and pounced on the ball.
Shoot beautifully, keep it even more beautifully
Chen Yu shot beautifully, Carini saved very magically, such a volley, and the angle was so big, it was really not easy to touch the ball, but Carini did it.
But there was no applause at the scene, not even the fans of Sporting Lisbon did not applaud, it was not that Sporting Lisbon did not want to applaud, but time did not allow, and at the moment when Carini saved the ball, there was already a jersey wearing a purple jersey rushing towards the saved ball.
It's Di Natale.
After the ball was saved by Carini, it bounced off the ground and bounced, and just as it bounced, Di Natale arrived.
What to do with the bouncing ball becomes the most important thing, if you stop, or wait for it to bounce and then land, this opportunity is lost, even if it is only for a second or two, the players of Sporting Lisbon will arrive, so that Di Natale will not have a chance to shoot.
Like Chen, Di Natale was forced to the point where he had to shoot straight at goal.
Di Natale was also a skilled player, and in a very short period of time, he chose the most correct shot, a two-kick action similar to the Chinese martial arts, and kicked the bouncing ball towards the goal.
Seeing that the second point was snatched by Di Natale, Carini got up from the ground and pounced again, trying to block Di Natale's shot.
Carini had done his best to save Chen Yu's shot, and where could he save Di Natale's equally delicate shot, but as soon as he got up, the ball flew over his head and into the net.
∶0
Di Natale once again broke through the door for Sporting Lisbon with a stoppage shot.
After the goal, Di Natale excitedly opened his arms, made a flying pose, and ran quickly to the stands, in front of the stands, he clenched his fists and made a fist at the fans, as if to say, "Look, I crushed the opponent"
"Good"
Cheers and applause rang out from all directions.
The fans in the stands were ready to cheer for a long time, but Chen Yu was actually pounced by Carini that time, so that this breath was still in his throat, and now Di Natale finally scored the ball, and the fans finally shouted out happily.
The substitutes, Prandley and the assistant coaches all rushed out in ecstasy, shouting and applauding loudly on the pitch.
As soon as this goal is scored, there is basically no doubt that Fiorentina will advance, and the rest of the time is almost garbage time.
Sporting Lisbon's head coach Pesero was stunned, he didn't expect that just after the start of the second half, the opponent launched such a deadly fast attack and scored a goal, the aggregate score was 3-0, which means that Sporting Lisbon's Champions League road is over.
De La Valle and Lucasey, who were in the VIP box, stood up excitedly, applauded the court, and then the two looked at each other and high-fived in celebration.
De La Valle looked up to the sky and sighed, "Champions League, here we come." “
Lu Casey followed: "It's us who are back, and we want to let the European powers know that the purple lily is back." “
In the north stand of the Frankie Stadium, Zhang Shubin is also high-fived with his son Zhang Han, this game, Zhang Shubin is more nervous than everyone else, because for others, Fiorentina is to lose millions of euros, they have no chance to watch Fiorentina's Champions League game, but for Zhang Shubin, if Chen Yu can't play the Champions League group stage this season, the loss will be big, because Chen Yu has proven his ability in Serie A, and now, he needs a bigger stage to show his strength, Chen Yu is already old, He must prove himself as soon as possible, so that he can become a world-class giant, once Chen Yu reaches the age of the year, it will go downhill, for Zhang Shubin, now Chen Yu every season is very precious, all determine the level of Chen Yu's future achievements.
Of course, this is Zhang Shubin who doesn't know that Chen Yu has a mysterious USB drive, age is no longer the biggest obstacle to Chen Yu, he is still constantly improving himself, and the future is limitless.
In the stands of Fiorentina, Toni was also watching the game, seeing Chen Yu and Di Natale so brave, Toni fell into deep thought after applauding, he was suddenly full of anxiety about his future, and he was not sure that he could put Di Natale on the bench now.
After the celebration, the game continued, now Fiorentina led by 3 goals, they were full of confidence, completely controlled the rhythm of the game, Sporting Lisbon was demoralized, can no longer organize a threatening attack, in the 70th minute of the game, Jorgensen scored from a distance, the score was rewritten to 3:0 The aggregate score is 4:0 lead, the victory is irrevocable, at this time Prandelli replaced Chen Yu and Di Natale, let his ace rest, but also let Bodinov and Pacini exercise, Then he replaced the veteran Pancaro and let the youngster left-back Pasquier work out.
In the last ten minutes, due to too many substitutions in Fiorentina, the mentality was also a little loose, and Sporting Lisbon pulled a goal back, but this was to no avail, and finally Sporting Lisbon was beaten by Fiorentina in L:3 away, missing the Champions League, and Fiorentina returned to the Champions League stage after five years.
