Ranieri's answer can be described as a naked slap in the face to Real Madrid, which clearly means that Sanchis is purely to blame, first deliberately injured Fiorentina captain Batistuta at the beginning of the second half, and then tried to blackmail Vieri, but he suffered the consequences and was knocked out by the Italian striker.

After hearing Ranieri's answer, Baldano's already unsightly face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and the Argentines got up and left the press conference venue without any grace, leaving only Ranieri with an indifferent face and a large group of reporters present.

After all the fourth round of Group C of the Champions Cup, Fiorentina are top of the group with three wins and one draw in four games, Glasgow Rangers are second behind the purple lily, and Real Madrid, who lost to Fiorentina in this round, are third in the group with only four points, while Romanian champions Bucharest are at the bottom of the group with zero points.

In other words, Fiorentina, which is already six points ahead of third-place Real Madrid and has an advantage in terms of records between them, has already qualified for the quarterfinals of the Champions League in advance, and has qualified two rounds in advance from this group C, which was regarded as the group of death by countless media before the start of the tournament!

Real Madrid, who lost this round, theoretically have a chance of qualifying from the group, five points behind the second place, they must win the fifth round of the group against Rangers, and in the Zuihou round of the group stage, they will win against the Bucharest Star, but also hope that the Fiorentina who have already qualified in advance will not lose to the Scottish team in the game to qualify for the group......

After successfully qualifying for the Champions League group stage, the Fiorentina players did not celebrate, but returned to Fiorentina overnight by special plane.

This is not because Fiorentina fear of any surprises if they remain in Madrid, but because they face the ninth round of Serie A in three days' time, when they take on Lazio, who have been unbeaten since the start of the season, at the Stadio Franqui.

Facing Fiorentina, who are short of a major player in the front line, Zeman has not shown the slightest softness in his formation, and this is his second season in charge of Lazio, and he believes that he should lead Lazio to some glory this season as the squad becomes more and more in line with his heart. So in this game, Signori, Casiraci, and Boksic started together, and the back line was Maciegiani, Negro, Favalli, Glendoni, and Chamotte, and the midfield was filled with Di Matteo, Fosse and Dutchman Aaron Winter.

Claudio Ranieri, on the other hand, fielded a single-striker starting line-up for this game: the goalkeeper was still Toldo, the back line made some changes, Lanna and Billindelly, who had been battling Real Madrid for a full 90 minutes in midweek, were given the opportunity to rest, and Fortunato and Zambrotta started the game.

In midfield, with Effenberg suspended for four yellow cards and Filippo Inzaghi sent only one person up front, Ranieri made a number of changes to Fiorentina's starting line-up: Cripa, Davies, and Di Biagio started at the same time, with Rui Costa and Yuri Djokaf in front of them, and Ranieri was clearly looking to play a counter-attacking tactic in this game.

After the referee blew the whistle for the start of the game, Lazio took the lead and launched a tidal wave of attacks towards Fiorentina's goal, trying to take advantage of the lack of concentration at the beginning of the game, so as to force Fiorentina to press out and attack.

But the Lazios obviously miscalculated, although Fiorentina has not conceded fewer goals this season, but this is more because many teams often choose to defend when facing Fiorentina, so that Fiorentina has to put more energy into attacking, and conceding goals is inevitable.

In this game, due to the injury and absence of several strikers, coupled with the fact that the opposing coach is the Czech Zeman, who is known for his heavy attack and light defense, Fiorentina naturally played a defensive counterattack tactic, and this set of tactics is obviously quite effective for the current Lazio team.

Lazio sold England midfielder Gascoigne this summer, and although Zeman shared the playmaking tasks that belonged to the Englishmen with players such as Roberto Di Matteo and Forsse, the team's creativity and passing lethality inevitably declined, after all, the two were weaker in terms of football talent and control of the game.

Although it is said that the three stinkers are the best of the best, but the impact of Gascoigne's departure has been reflected in Lazio's record this season, four wins and four draws in eight league games, the Blue Eagles have shown a lack of creativity in the face of Roma and Inter Milan, the two teams that are not bad, Signoli, Casiraci and others are just pure goalscorers, and although the three players in the midfield do not make many mistakes, but in the face of the defense line composed of Fiorentina players, Di Matteo and others do not have many good ways to break through this great wall of steel, And the small space in Fiorentina's backfield also makes Signori and others useless.

If it is against other teams, Lazio can also use their three midfielders' good long-range shooting skills to force the opponent to expand the defensive range to open up space for the strikers, but Ranieri is very clever to use three defensive midfielders to completely lock this space at the edge of the penalty area, Kripa and Davies's huge defensive area makes Lazio's players simply unable to find space to shoot from a distance, and can only look at the Fiorentina goal.

Lazio's attack was lackluster, while Fiorentina's side made full use of several attacking players, Costa's pass, Inzaghi's off-ball run and Djokaeau's breakthrough, and the trio repeatedly took advantage of the break at the back to launch a counter-attack against Lazio's goal, and Lazio's overpressed backline provided enough space for Fiorentina to counter-attack.

After being poached by Zhuang Mingge, Lazio's management began to focus all their energy and resources on Glendoni, and the coaching staff specially formulated Jihua for him, and hired a psychiatrist to treat certain defects in his personality. Thanks to Lazio's efforts, Grandoni has improved this season, performing well at both ends of the pitch, and there is a growing demand in Italy for Sacchi to be included in the squad for the European Championships.

However, Glendoni's performance in this game was a big disappointment, he was helpless to take the cunning and thin striker who was opposite him throughout the game, and the seemingly meaningless runs often created good shooting opportunities, which made Glendoni and his defensive partner Chamot embarrassed, and the two of them even followed Inzaghi every step of the way, for fear that he would let him get a single knife if he was not careful.

As a result, Fiorentina took full advantage of the importance of Grandoni and others to Inzaghi, and in the 75th minute of the game, Kripa broke the ball at the back, Costa launched a counterattack with a long pass, and Gradoni wrapped up Inzaghi but missed Djokaeau, and the Frenchman received the ball unguarded, easily burst into the penalty area and shook the attacking goalkeeper Maciegiani, scoring the only goal of the half.

1 to 0! Fiorentina played at home to Clarzio, ending the opponent's unbeaten dream of nine consecutive rounds!
