After a dreary defensive battle that ended the first leg of the Champions League semi-final with an away goal and a draw, the Fiorentina players did not immediately return to their home base and stayed in Milan - not because Heynckes suddenly short-circuited his mind to take a trip to Milan at his own expense, but because Fiorentina have to play AC Milan in three days' time!

For AC Milan, this clash with Fiorentina can be said to be a very good opportunity for revenge. You know, Fiorentina just played a real game with Inter Milan in the Champions Cup before, and the state of its main players is definitely not at its peak, and AC Milan, which has no European games and no main players injured this week, can play in the best condition, which is enough to erase the gap between the two teams. It can even be said that AC Milan, who have the advantage of being at home, have a bigger chance of winning this game than Fiorentina.

After all, Fiorentina can be arguably the most wanted opponent for AC Milan. Not to mention the grievances of the Sacchi era, the fact that they were knocked out of the top four in the league last season and forced them to play in the League Cup, which is much less profitable and well-known, is enough to keep the Rossoneri's players motivated.

Heynckes naturally knew that AC Milan had this kind of resentment towards them, so after the match with Inter Milan, the German coach immediately borrowed a training ground from Inter Milan through the channels of the club's senior management to allow the players to practice tactics and maintain their condition. Of course, Inter Milan FC is not a living Lei Feng who does not want to reciprocate the favor, and they have also made a corresponding request, that is, they can send someone to watch the Fiorentina players up close while they are training.

Inter Milan naturally made this request with their considerations. Although the Nerazzurri have former Fiorentina players such as Barty, Toldo and Materazzi, and have imitated many of the measures and systems of the Purple Lily in all aspects, Inter Milan obviously did not have enough information on the most core aspects of team training and physiotherapy. After all, Barty is not a traitor like Iuliano, his professionalism is trustworthy, and he will never do anything to betray the secrets of his former club.

Therefore, when the news of Fiorentina's request to rent the training venue this time was received, Inter Milan immediately realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime learning opportunity, so they agreed to the other party's request so readily. What's more, this is also a good opportunity to get a close look at the semi-final opponent, and it will also help a lot in the second leg of the match, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

In this way, the Fiorentina players spent three days at the Pinettina training base and on May 3 they welcomed the 31st round of Serie A.

With Inter Milan battling out a defensive battle in midweek, Heynckes made a major change to his starting line-up for this game. While Gianluigi Buffon is still in goal, the backline in front of him has changed dramatically, with Zivo and Sun Jihai appearing at the starting wing-backs, and Lucio and Gambellini partnering in central defence, a quartet that will be put to the test by the Ukrainian twins. Albertini and Deco teamed up to take on the team's playmaking, while Gattuso continued his promising role as a 'midfield mixer', with right winger Giuli tasked with making up for Sun Jihai's lack of assists and feeding Diego Milito and Inzaghi up front.

Looking at AC Milan's side, because the UEFA Cup they participated in is obviously several grades lower than the Champions Cup in terms of intensity, the physical consumption of the players, and their opponent in the semi-finals, Glasgow Celtic, is not a strong opponent, so Ancelotti sent the strongest lineup, Dida, Maldini, Glendoni, Rebrov and Shevchenko and other absolute main players all appeared, in order to get a victory on Fiorentina, in order to avenge the revenge that kept them out of the Champions Cup last season!

Once the game began, the AC Milan players relied on home advantage and more energy to quickly gain the upper hand, with Costa and Seedorf, two midfield greats with superb organisation and frequent threats to Fiorentina's goal with elusive passes; Although Fiorentina saved the trouble of going back and forth with the help of Inter Milan, it was difficult for them to recover their disadvantages on the pitch with a large number of substitutes and physical strength, so they could only shrink the defense and wait for the Rossoneri to counterattack.

In the 54th minute, Rui Costa seized the gap left by Lucio's scramble and played a classic through diagonal combination with Shevchenko to assist the Ukrainian nuclear warhead to score, and the two former Fiorentina players used their tacit cooperation to help AC Milan take the lead in the score!

Although Fiorentina suffered from the backlash of Rui Costa and Shevchenko, AC Milan did not last long. In the 81st minute of the game, Baronho was shown a yellow card by the referee for a reckless foul on Albertini 23 meters from the goal and awarded a direct free kick to Fiorentina.

According to the grapevine, when he saw Albertini's free kick flying into the goal of AC Milan, Berlusconi, who came to watch the game, suddenly turned black and walked away without waiting for the game to end. Obviously, the big boss of AC Milan must be full of resentment towards Albertini himself, as well as Ancelotti and others who advised him to sell Albertini.

After all, Berlusconi himself is quite good-looking. If Albertini had left AC Milan in a slump and the team's record had gone from strength to strength, he would have been gushing about his "wise decision"; But if there is a situation like the current situation of being slapped in the face by the player, then Lao Bei will definitely vent his anger on Galliani or Ancelotti, two natural candidates for the black pot. As AC Milan's most brilliant president ever, Silvio Berlusconi never thought he had made any mistakes.

Of course, no matter which hapless guy's anger is vented on the head of Berlusconi, the score will not change as a result.

In the end, relying on Albertini's direct free kick to score, Fiorentina, who rotated most of the main players, stubbornly drew with the Rossoneri at home, and left the San Siro Stadium with a point, which made AC Milan, who thought they could finally take revenge in this game, depressed.
