Volume 1 Chapter 49 C2 Champion
The beginning of the second half was Rodigian's world, Fiorentina also had the intention of attacking for ten minutes in the second half, but as an opponent of the same level, Rodigian could not let Fiorentina win every time, they started first, grabbed around Fiorentina, and beat Fiorentina to attack but did not attack, so they could only continue the first half of the steady counterattack tactics.
The last game, the last opportunity, often when it comes to the most backward, people's potential can be greatly exerted, the second half of the game to the 50th minute, has been playing on the side of the Rodigian suddenly in the strongest defense of the middle of the Fiorentina to do the article, after continuous lateral passing, Rodgiian's No. 10 suddenly accelerated the pace of the pass, their front-court iron triangle continued to pass, the most rearly inserted No. 10 heel knocked, penetrated all the defenders of Fiorentina, The No.9 striker, who had been running, fell to the ground and stabbed the ball into the Fiorentina goal.
With this series of non-stop cooperation, Fiorentina had five defenders in the middle, and none of them touched the ball before it flew into the net.
1:1
Rodigian tore through the Fiorentina defence with a brilliant team play to score the equaliser.
The on-site commentator was so shocked that he shouted, "This is a Serie A goal!" This combination is so beautiful! Fiorentina's players in the middle didn't even get a chance to foul. “
Kassinwa, who was standing on the sidelines, couldn't help but applaud his opponent, such a combination is indeed commendable, and it is more tactically valuable than the long-range shot from Gao Fei.
The 1-1 draw was still in Fiorentina's favour, and they were still champions at the worst of the scoreline, but Rodigian opened the gap in Fiorentina's tightest defence and morale was noticeably up.
In the next few minutes, Rodigian boldly played a short pass in the Fiorentina half, and the ball kept going back and forth in the middle and on the wing, mobilizing the Fiorentina defence, and once he found an opening, he suddenly accelerated to create a chance to shoot.
The pace of the game was controlled by the opponents, Fiorentina were led by the nose, the goal was threatened continuously, and although there were no goals, the situation became very dangerous.
Cassinwa is also an iron-fisted coach, and in this crisis, he decisively makes his players use foul tactics, not only on players with the ball, but also on players who run without the ball, interrupting their rhythm and killing their form.
In the 50th and 60th minutes, Fiorentina finally stopped the opponent's frenzied counterattack with five fouls and two yellow cards and stabilized the sinister situation.
The opponent's attack was contained, but the score was still not safe, Rodigian only needed to score one more goal, they could take away the title, Fiorentina could defend and counterattack in the first half, if the game was played to the last 15 minutes, Fiorentina could also defend to the end, but at this point in time, Fiorentina still has to seek to score.
Fiorentina's attack is simple because they seek to score goals on the basis of ensuring stability at the back, and the attack is mainly initiated at the back, using long passes or wingers to catch the ball.
This kind of attack lacks concealment, is easy to defend, and requires the attacking players to have strong individual ability, and the three attacking players in the front of Fiorentina are very strong, Ricano's body, Chen Yu's speed and skills, Di Livio's awareness and experience, are the top among these players on the field, and this kind of attack brings a lot of threat to Rodigian.
In the 65th minute of the game, Fiorentina finally found Rigano accurately with a continuous long pass, when Rigarno's header was ferried to Chen Yu, Chen Yu was kicked down by the defender in the back, and the referee whistled to punish the opponent for a foul.
The referee didn't say he had to listen to his whistle, which was a good chance to sneak up, but Rigano was a step too late and the ball was quickly disrupted by the opposition defenders.
There was a sigh in the stands, and there were not many such opportunities for Fiorentina, who played defensive counter-attacks.
Chen Yu was not discouraged, and when Rigano gave him an apologetic thumbs up, Chen Yu clenched his fist and waved at him, telling him to continue fighting.
The game played another 5 minutes, and the time entered 70 minutes, Rodigian played a little anxious, and the original very good shortcomings penetrated more mistakes due to impatience, giving Fiorentina more opportunities to counterattack.
In the 71st minute of the game, Chen Yu pedaled a bicycle on the side and passed Roditian's No. 2 fullback, No. 2 did not dare to let Chen Yu pass, pulled someone behind him to foul, and received a yellow card.
The foul was worth it, avoiding a counterattack from Fiorentina, and the threat of a free kick on the side was not very great, but two minutes later, Chen Yu received a pass from the backfield, turned his back to the No. 2 defender and shared the ball, No. 2 committed a second foul, seemed to forget that he had just received a yellow card, stretched out his foot to hook Chen Yu, and was sent off the field by the referee showing a second yellow card.
This red card is of decisive significance, the two teams were at the same level, the performance was similar, and the score reflected the situation on the field, but the No. 2 defender was annoyed and embarrassed by Chen Yu's breakthrough, and he ate two yellow cards in three minutes and was sent off, which changed the strength of the two sides.
Cassinwa stood on the sidelines, a smile on his lips, one less man, and he had to continue to attack, he was eager to see how Rodigian coach Murray, who was not far away, made a move.
Murray is also a good man, and at this time he did not replace the substitute full-back, but replaced a striker, and let the No. 6 midfielder play full-back to continue to strengthen the attack.
There is a saying that the brave wins when they meet in a narrow way, but this sentence must only apply when the strength of the two sides is not too different, and now Roditzian, who has only 10 men, is a step worse than Fiorentina, and they have to attack at this time, which is almost like hitting a stone with an egg.
Murray also made such an arrangement, there is not much time left, he has to gamble to see if he can score one, if he scores a goal, he will replace the remaining two substitutions with defensive players, defend to the death, if he can't score, then sit back and wait, anyway, there is a chance to play the play-offs.
Murray's gamble didn't work out, as Fiorentina have been excellent defensively, with a back three running and very capable of running around, and unless Rodigian can play the same brilliant combination as he did when he scored the first goal, it will be difficult to break down Fiorentina's defence.
After three minutes of Rodigian's sleepy beast fighting, Longo stepped up and drove straight with the ball, and immediately hit Rodigian's vital point, lacking interceptors in the middle, and Longo, who was inserted in the back, directly faced Rodigian's central defender. The front court formed a 4-on-4 chance.
Longo shook the opponent's central defender, did not shake off, and passed the ball to Chen Yu on the side, now it is 4 to 4, as long as there is a breakthrough at one point, Rodigian's back line will collapse in an instant.
When Chen Yu received the ball, he was worried that the opponent would commit a foul and waste an opportunity to attack, so he took the ball to the middle, wanting to avoid the opponent and make a fuss in the middle of the penalty area.
The No. 6 midfielder, who played as a cameo full-back, had to follow Chen Yu to move to the middle, because if he didn't go, Chen Yu could form a three-on-two situation in the middle.
Chen Yu saw the front of the penalty area, and immediately made a sharp stop, wanting to shake off the opponent, but he was not fast with the ball, so he didn't shake it off this time.
Chen Yu quickly started to move forward, watched the opponent move sideways, and then smashed the ball to the penalty area.
Chen Yu's actions were done quickly, after all, the defenders were passive, and they were half a beat late, Chen Yu broke through his defense and surpassed him by half a position.
No. 6 didn't dare to steal easily, for fear of being overcome, so he could only squeeze Chen Yu with his body, wanting to destroy Chen Yu's center of gravity and then steal.
After a season of exercise, Chen Yu's quality in all aspects has been greatly improved, his original strength is only 40 points, balance 50 points, the 20th round, Chen Yu's strength and balance has been improved by 10 points, before the last round of the game, Chen Yu tested his body, strength and balance has been improved to 60 points and 70 points, this value has reached the level of the top league, if it is not for Chen Yu's other aspects are not up to standard, now Chen Yu can be bound to professional intermediate players.
No. 6 wanted to carry Chen Yu, but as soon as Chen Yu exerted his strength, he carried No. 6 to the side and lost his center of gravity.
Chen Yu took the opportunity to go forward and entered the penalty area, entering the penalty area is equivalent to more insurance, the opponent did not dare to foul, Chen Yu made a feint to raise his foot to shoot, and when his foot fell, he deducted the ball from the heel of his supporting foot.
Chen Yu's judgment was accurate, when he pretended to shoot, No. 6 tried his best to make a flying tackle, and if he exerted his strength, the ball was intercepted.
The goalkeeper who had played bravely before also pounced viciously at this time.
Chen Yu's situation at the moment is similar to that of Rigano when he faced the goalkeeper single-handedly, but Chen Yu's kick is faster than Ricano's, and the awareness of the South American players he binds, the shooting is also more tricky, and when the goalkeeper pounces, Chen Yu rubs the ball, and the ball flies over the goalkeeper's head and into the net.
2:1
Chen Yu rewrote the score.
“GOALGOALGOAL……“
"Chen Chen Chen ......"
The entire stadium was set on fire by the goal, and nearly 40,000 fans in the stands let out a tsunami-like cry.
"We won!"
"We've won!"
"We're in the cut!"
At this moment, this thought is in everyone's minds, 75 minutes, one more person, one goal ahead, there is no suspense in the game. Chen Yu killed the game.
Rodigian's coach Murray saw Chen Yu's goal, sighed, and knew that the game was basically over here, but he couldn't admit defeat, and symbolically replaced a striker and a defender in a row, and continued to strengthen the attack.
At this time, Rodigian replaced two attacking players desperately, it can not be called desperate, can only be called death, three minutes later, the veteran Di Livio sent an assist, and Rigano scored with a header, rewriting the score to 3:1. The rest of the game was completely garbage time.
At this time, Casingwa replaced Di Livio with Quagliarella and asked him to accept the applause of the fans.
Di Livio took off the captain's armband when he left the field, put it on Chen Yu himself, and then walked to the bench.
There was thunderous applause again in the stands, which was a tribute to the old captain and at the same time a tribute to the new captain.
The commentator of Fiorentina TV said: "Cassinwa replaced the cheerleader Di Livio at this time with deep meaning, Di Livio is 37 years old, and it is difficult to say whether he can play the main force in the more fierce C1 next season, and the handover of the captain's armband this time is to show fans that Chen Yu is likely to become the new captain of Fiorentina." “
Chen Yu, who wore the captain's armband for the first time, was very excited, and in garbage time, he was still actively looking for opportunities to shoot, and his teammates were happy to fulfill his wish to score. In the case that the victory was decided, in order to congratulate Chen Yu on being the captain for the first time, they all stepped forward one after another.
In the 88th minute, Fiorentina's full-back assisted to the bottom line cross, and Rigano crossed the header to Chen Yu in the middle when he could head the goal.
Chen Yu pushed the ball on the corner of the penalty area, led it to the edge of the penalty area, avoided the defense, and shot angrily without waiting for the ball to land, and the ball flew into the back corner of the goal against the post, locking the score at 4:1.
"Team Chen! Team Chen! GOALGOALGOAL……”
The 40,000 fans in the stands applauded Chen Yu frantically and shouted the new term "Chen Team".
Cassinwa on the sidelines also showed a satisfied smile, judging from the last ten minutes, Chen Yu has the ability to act as an opponent, and his teammates also trust and love him very much.
With just one minute of stoppage time, the referee blew the final whistle as Fiorentina beat Rodigian 4-1 at home to win the C2 title and qualify for C1 without having to play in the play-offs......
The C2 title has no appeal to an established powerhouse like Fiorentina, but promotion to C1 means they are one step closer to Serie A, and Fiorentina celebrated the promotion after the game, and then announced that the team would be on holiday and return to the team for training in early July to prepare for the C1 League.
