PS1: 124,000 recommended plus more sent, by the way, ask for recommended votes.

PS2: The next time I add more will be recommended at 127,000, well, that's it.

For this lottery result, Zhuang Mingge is still quite satisfied. Although it seems to outsiders that Dortmund, who have been extremely strong at home and abroad in recent years, are indeed a strong team, and the strongest of Fiorentina's five opponents in the quarter-finals, this is not the case.

With Borussia Dortmund losing the trophy to Fiorentina in last season's Champions Cup final, the Bundesliga club suffered a big earthquake last summer: after winning two Bundesliga titles in a row and also winning the Champions Cup runners-up, the main players led by Summerer and Andrés Müller began to become complacent and no longer listen to the words of manager Heathfield, which led to Heathfield angrily asking for his resignation and being promoted to the club's technical director. Dumping this mess, which seemed to him to be already on the verge of chaos, to his successor.

As a result, the Italian coach Scala invited by the Dortmund top management was so cheated by his predecessor.

When Scala happily accepted Dortmund's invitation to coach in Germany, the Italian boss found that the atmosphere in the dressing room of the Bundesliga giants had deteriorated to the point where he could not control it, and that the words of dressing room bigwigs such as Muller and Sammer were better than those of his manager!

To make matters worse, as this was Scala's first time coaching in Germany, he had no roots in Dortmund and could not convince the hierarchy to impose severe penalties on the stars who disobeyed orders, and had to let the players play freely on the pitch as they wanted.

In this situation, Dortmund has performed quite poorly in the Bundesliga this season, falling out of the top six in the league just over the halfway point of the season, and next season's European qualification is in question; In the Champions Cup, if it weren't for the good luck of the Bumblebees, I'm afraid even qualifying from the group would be a problem.

Therefore, the current Dortmund team is just extremely strong on the surface, but in fact it is strong on the outside.

In fact, of the five teams that could be Fiorentina's opponents, the last thing Zhuang Mingge wants to face is not Fiorentina's old acquaintance Borussia Dortmund in the Champions Cup, but Deportivo La Coruna from La Liga.

Although Deportivo does not have the shadow of the later super Laco, under the careful construction of its chairman Rendoiro, this small club in the northwest of Spain has a very fanatical devil's home stadium and some powerful stars, such as Mauro Silva, Donato and Brazilian genius De Jaminha, etc., these players have appeared in Laco's main squad at this time.

Although Rivaldo, the team's top scorer last season, took Deportivo by surprise by his unexpected transfer to Barcelona last summer, because Rivaldo's transfer time was much earlier than in history (historically, Rivaldo announced his transfer to Barcelona a few hours before the transfer door closed, and Barcelona's forced poaching almost made Laco get out of La Liga this season), so Rondoiro has enough time to find Rivaldo's successor, This small change has allowed Laco to have a much better record in all competitions than it has been at the same time in history, and there is no longer a need to worry about the lack of attacking firepower.

Therefore, in Zhuang Mingge's view, Deportivo La Coruna, who is united and balanced in attack and defense, is much more difficult to deal with than Dortmund, who has been engaged in infighting.

"Fortunately, the UEFA officials didn't find out about this, and the excessive attention to the team's popularity made them mistakenly think that Dortmund is the strongest team." Zhuang Mingge explained to Karin, "If we meet Deportivo La Coruna in the quarterfinals, I think these two matches may not be so easy to play. ”

"Well, that's right." After listening to Zhuang Mingge's explanation, Karin nodded in agreement, "In the past two seasons, we have been clear about Dortmund's player configuration and style of play, and the probability of us losing is very low when we know ourselves and our opponents...... If the opponent is Deportivo La Coruna, I'm afraid this is not the case. ”

After the Champions Cup draw ceremony, Fiorentina soon ushered in the 20th round of Serie A against Inter Milan.

In the face of Fiorentina playing at home, Inter Milan coach Simeone decisively chose his best and most commonly used defensive counter-attacking tactics, in addition to Robert Baggio can stay in the front field and be ready to counterattack at any time, even Djokaeff has to retreat to his own half to participate in the defense, which shows the importance of defense.

What Simeone will do, Capello can know with his heels, so in this game, Capello, who is determined to lead the team to all three points at home, decisively put Rui Costa, Redondo and Effenberg into the starting lineup, and only the Dutch boar Davies is a full-time defender.

Toldo, Zambrotta, Ferrara, Nesta, Robert Carlos, Redondo, Davies, Effenberg, Rui Costa, Vieri and Inzaghi – that's Fiorentina's starting XI for this game.

Capello's meaning is clear, that is, to destroy the Nerazzurri with attack!

As Capello expected, at the beginning of the game, Inter Milan, who were playing away, took the initiative to shrink the defensive line, compress Fiorentina's attacking space, trying to ** Fiorentina to press the attack, and then solve the home team through a quick counterattack.

However, the Fiorentina players did not give the visitors the opportunity to play a counter-attack, with Redondo, Costa and Effenberg in the middle of the field, which made Fiorentina's passing accuracy in the game quite high.

Under the deliberate planning of the three midfielders, unless there was a chance to shoot on goal, Fiorentina's passes were completed 30 meters away from the Inter Milan gate.

Redondo did this in order to drain the energy of the Inter Milan players in this way, after all, the defending side generally consumes much more energy than the attacking side.

When there is a problem with the opponent's fitness, the defense will naturally not be as tight as at the beginning, and the more buildings in the defensive line, Fiorentina's chance to score will naturally appear.

The Inter Milan players could only watch the home team keep falling backwards from 30 meters away, but they didn't dare to act rashly, because Redondo and others have an extremely sharp pass, once they rush to grab the ball, it is likely to lead to a leak in the entire defensive system, so that the opponent seizes the opportunity to score.

But if you want to win a game through blind defense and a handful of counter-attacks, you need not only to be strong, but also to have enough luck.

However, it is clear that Inter Milan's luck tonight is not very good: in the 81st minute of the game, Carlos suddenly pulled out his foot and shot 35 meters away from the goal, although Pagliuca, who was caught off guard, tried to block the ball out of the gate, but because the force of the shot was too great, Pagliuca did not hold the ball, but chose to knock the ball out of the penalty area with both fists!

However, at the moment when Pagliuca hit the ball, a purple figure suddenly appeared in front of the Inter goalkeeper, and pushed the ball that was about to fly out of the penalty area towards the door of Inter Milan!
