Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Fisherman's Profit
When Fiorentina narrowed the gap to one goal, Lippi finally made the first substitution of the game, replacing the star-studded Piero with Baggio, who had just recovered from injury, and then replacing the physically exerted Vialli with "Pulsatilla" Lavanelli.
Here, Ranieri also replaced Billindelli and Lanna on the field with two veterans of Franceni and Parry, and the two full-backs were hit hard enough by Juve's wide play in this game, and collapsed directly on the bench after the game, allowing the team's trainers to give them a massage to recover from fatigue.
After Baggio came on, Juventus played a decisive defensive counter-attack, unlike Piero, the 94-year-old Baggio was a good counter-attacker, and Ravanelli could also replace Vialli to a certain extent.
And Batistuta, who was already red-eyed, was dismissive of this.
Just one goal ahead and trying to hold on to that advantage? Then I will use the attack to let you know that in the face of Florence, you can't defend it, you can only die!
Batistuta's movement up front began to become more active, and in this game, he put a lot of pressure on the Juventus backline, and both German centre-back Coral and Iuliano struggled to keep up with Barty in his prime.
Barty was also hoping he could help his side equalise with a single goal, and he started the season at the top of his game, even breaking the record for consecutive goals scored in Serie A for more than three decades. Of course, he hopes to bring Fiorentina a league trophy through his outstanding performances, and this match against Juventus is the first real problem for Fiorentina!
In the 80th minute, Effenberg passed diagonally to Djokaev on the left, who then passed the ball to Batistuta who moved outside the penalty area, and the god of war did not give the Juventus players a chance to rush over to defend themselves, and immediately turned and volleyed vigorously, the ball was slightly off the post;
In the 83rd minute, Paulo Sousa's through ball to Baggio was intercepted by Di Biagio, and Fiorentina took advantage of the attack, Effenberg and Kripa played a clever one-two to beat Deschamps, and the Juventus centre-back ran to block the shot in the middle of the pitch.
Because the tiger's shot was too big, Peruzzi pounced on the ball, and Batistuta ran over to make up for it, but the angle was too positive, and the ball flew directly into Peruzzi's arms.
"Oh, Batistuta is really unlucky!" The commentator's words were full of regret, "Peruzzi's previous save has already revealed most of the Argentine striker's empty net, and Barty only needs a light push to help his team equalise...... As a result, the Argentine kicked the ball back to Peruzzi with an incredible shot. ”
Batistuta, who missed a good chance to score, was also full of frustration, holding his head in his hands and looking at the goal in disbelief, as if he couldn't believe that he would waste this great opportunity.
However, the resolute Barty was not discouraged, and in the following time, he was still trying to find opportunities to score, as the saying goes: God rewards hard work, and Barty's hard work is destined not to return empty-handed in this game.
Barty's desire to score became even stronger when the fourth official held up the electronic card for four minutes of stoppage time on the sidelines.
Long-range shots, headers, penalty grabbing...... In this match, Batistuta used all his skills as a top centre-forward.
Vieri, who was sitting on the bench and watching Barty's game, had a gleam in his eyes.
I still have a long way to go to become a top center......
Vieri made up his mind that from today onwards, he would definitely go to Baibati as a teacher.
By this time, the game was already in the 94th minute, and Batistuta, who had been running diligently in the Juventus half, finally found another chance to score in the box: Djokaef cleverly slotted past the scrambling Torricelli on the left and sent the ball over his head with a beautiful cross.
Barty stopped Coral behind him, jumped high, saw the flight path of the ball, and slammed the ball into the far corner of the goal......
After Barty scored the equaliser, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game.
"Three to three! Fiorentina miraculously equalised from two goals down! The commentator shouted excitedly, "In the Zuihou minute of the game, Batty's goal allowed Fiorentina to successfully get a valuable point from Juventus' home stadium!" ”
And the Juventus fans who had been cheering and celebrating in the stands just now were dumbfounded, they did not expect that the Bianconeri, who have always been calm and steady, would be forced to draw by their opponents at Zuihou moment on their home turf!
It's been years since Juve scored three goals at the Alp Stadium by another team! This is something that even AC Milan in their prime!
Nearly 10,000 Fiorentina in the stadium were celebrating with high spirits.
Leading, equalizing, overtaking, zuihou moments magically equalize...... All the elements that excite the Fiorentina fans are present in this match, and nothing is missing!
Inzaghi's face, Effenberg's frantically swung fist, Batistuta's roar after the goal...... Coupled with Ranieri with his hands raised on the sidelines, at this moment, Fiorentina seemed to have returned from hell to heaven!
Although for Lippi and Ranieri, a 3-3 draw was definitely not a satisfactory result for them......
Lippi desperately needs the win to finish ahead of Fiorentina in the table, while Ranieri also needs the three points to cement his side's lead.
Ranieri's expression was a little more relaxed, though, as his side equalised after trailing by a full half time and picked up a point, which was much better than losing and then not having a point. Lippi, on the other hand, will need to work harder, as a draw will not help Juventus much at the moment, but may be widened by other rivals, after all, this season's Serie A has changed to a three-point system.
……
"Three to three! Juventus ended up drawing with Fiorentina at home, and it was a great game! ”
At this time, Zhuang Mingge and Moji, who were sitting in the box, did not have a very good look on their faces at this time, because they had just received a piece of news: in another match played at the same time, Parma swept Brescia 4-0 at the Tardini Stadium! With one point, Fiorentina, who scored only one point in two rounds, jumped to the top spot!
This is a typical sandpiper and clam fighting, and the fisherman profits!
