Chapter 628: Injured

"Two to two...... Two to two! Juventus took advantage of a set-piece in front of the goal to equalize the score again! Pierrot's goal is a priceless goal! The Bianconeri finally showed his worth at this moment, and he managed to get Juventus back from the line of death with a goal! "The commentator is doing the commentary work for the game in the live broadcast room," Pierrot's sense of smell in front of goal is indeed very keen, but Di Livio, who kicked that unexpected long-range shot, was the biggest contributor to Juventus' equalizer. ”

Twice equalising from a two-game lead situation left all Fiorentina players in a state of disgrace – something that hasn't happened for a long time since Fiorentina returned to Serie A.

Even when the second leg against Real Madrid was inextricably linked, Fiorentina maintained the lead in the score. So, against the familiar old rival Juventus, the Fiorentina players have always believed that as long as they are serious enough in the game, it should be a sure win.

However, the reality was quite different from what they expected, and Juventus' resilience in the game forced Fiorentina, who had always been dominant, to be on the same starting line as the Bianconeri again.

And this naturally stabbed the self-esteem of the Fiorentina players - we are a team that has won four consecutive Serie A titles and two consecutive Champions League titles, if even Juventus can't win it, then what face does it have to claim to be the number one giant in Europe?

Therefore, after the restart, Fiorentina put Juventus back into their half with a wave of powerful attacks, and the intensity of their attack forced Pierrot and Otero to retreat to their own half to participate in the defense, unable to run in front to harass Fiorentina's backline.

However, shortly after the restart, the Fiorentina fans in the stands at the Amsterdam Arena let out a huge boo!

The Fiorentina fans were able to get the fans not because Juventus scored again, but because a Fiorentina player was brought down on the pitch by a Juventus player!

It turned out that in one of Fiorentina's attacks just now, Effenberg suddenly distributed the ball to the unguarded other side after attracting the attention of Montero and Di Livio on the left side of the frontcourt!

Di Biagio, who was plugged in in the back row, was just about to bend his bow and finish the attack with a heavy cannon, when Deschamps' flying tackle also arrived as expected.

However, as Di Biagio flicked the ball forward in order to avoid the tackle of the Frenchman, the director Didier Deschamps did not tackle the ball as he expected, but kicked Di Biagio's support leg hard!

was hit by this heavy blow, Di Biagio was not ambiguous, and immediately fell on the court with a scream!

Fiorentina's team doctors rushed to the pitch with a set of emergency supplies, and after some treatment and initial diagnosis of Di Biagio, Nelson shook his head at Capello and signaled that the Italian could no longer continue the game.

"Damn it!" Capello saw Nelson's gesture and immediately burst into a foul language, shouting at the players on the bench, "You guys! Hurry up and warm up! Fast! ”

According to the information he got from Nelson, Capello naturally saw that Di Biagio might not be able to continue the game, so Capello hurriedly threw out several players on the bench to do warm-up exercises, ready to improvise according to the situation.

At this time, the referee Cragg also rushed to the scene of the incident, looking at Deschamps, who caused the accident, with a rather unkind gaze.

Seeing the referee running towards him, Deschamps quickly spread his hands to show his innocence, he didn't want to get a yellow card at this juncture, so that he could be restrained in the next game.

However, Kragg obviously won't take Deschamps' set, and after a brief greeting to Di Biagio, the referee from Germany showed Deschamps a yellow card!

For Cragg's decision, Lippi and Capello on the sidelines looked dissatisfied. The former believes that Deschamps' tackle was not fouled, that Di Biagio's injury was nothing more than an accident, and that the yellow card was entirely due to the referee's desire to take care of the Fiorentina player; Fabio Capello was of the opposite opinion, believing that Didier Deschamps' foul on Di Biagio was enough to get him sent off the pitch with a red card.

In the face of Capello and Lippi's complaints, the fourth official acted as a listener at this time, smiling and persuading the two managers to return to their respective seats.

Cragg, who arrived later, warned Lippi's statement, because from the slow-motion replay on the big screen just now, he could clearly see that Deschamps' spikes hit Di Biagio's ankle directly - if it weren't for the help of shin guards, Di Biagio's injury would definitely not be what it is now.

From this point of view, Cragg feels that it is not an exaggeration to give Deschamps a red card himself!

In other words, if this match wasn't the much-anticipated Champions League final, maybe Cragg would......

Lippi only shrugged his shoulders, he knew that Deschamps' tackle on Di Biagio was undoubtedly a foul, and the reason why he ran to the fourth official to complain was more just to make a gesture.

Looking at Fiorentina's side again, Fiorentina's bench is also unusually busy at this time. Taking advantage of this dead-ball time, Capello was writing and drawing with a tactical board, giving final instructions to Inzaghi, who was about to come on the pitch.

"Philip, remember what I said? After a while, remember to relay what I just said to the rest of the audience. After receiving an affirmative reply from Inzaghi, Capello continued, "As for your task, it's simple, it's to score! Keep scoring! ”

"Haha, I love this task, boss!" Inzaghi replied with a smile as he walked onto the pitch under the guidance of the fourth official, replacing Di Biagio, who left the field due to injury, "I'm a man who was born to score goals!" You can watch from the sidelines! ”

"Replacing a defensive midfielder with a striker, Capello looks like he's going to play with his life's pace......" Robert Baggio was obviously a little puzzled by Capello's substitution, because in his impression, Capello is not the kind of person who is easy to impulsive, "Although it is indeed demoralizing to be equalized by the opponent when leading twice, but I think it is a bit too early to fight now." ”

And just like that, with the substitution of Philippe Inzaghi and the referee's whistle, the game resumed!
