Chapter 162: The Triple Crown

On the day of the Coppa Italia final, it suddenly rained, as if for the change of dynasty of Florence, and as a result, in the torrential rain, Fiorentina lifted the Coppa Italia trophy for the sixth time, although this season, Fiorentina has tasted two more important titles, but this time there is a big difference.

Triple crown, after a big battle, Fiorentina finally laughed Zuihou and defeated their opponents, of course, three fires, they defeated their opponents themselves.

Probably no one wants to see Fiorentina crowned the treble, Fiorentina's opponent in this game, Roma, for this victory, it can be said that painstaking, in order to call on the fans to support on the spot, Rome reduced the ticket price to one euro, the Olympic Stadium was full, shouting, the pressure of Florence can be imagined.

The pressure increased again after the opening eight minutes, when a Roma counter-attack, Totti went straight into the box, and Vucinic successfully countered offside and pushed the far corner of the net to take the lead.

In the next game, the desperate Roma also continued to put huge pressure on Fiorentina, Totti's shot on the line of the small penalty area was blocked by Fiorentina's goalkeeper Lupat with his legs, and then Panucci's header crossed the far post, and Totti's cross almost spun into the goal.

In this game, Prandelli sent all the rotations, goalkeeper Lupatelli, left-back Antonini, central defenders Dainelli and Ujfarusi, right-back Maggio, midfielders Donader, Arteta and Marchena, forward Hamsik, and forward line Mutu and Pazzini.

In the face of Rome's crazy attack, the somewhat flustered Fiorentina can only frequently get up and kick the ball, and often continue to attack after being picked up by Rome, at the same time, in front of the opponent's goal, Fiorentina rashly wasted a lot of opportunities, Maggio's cross was kicked into the stands by Pazini at the back point, Arteta tore apart the opponent's defense, but Hamsik, who was quickly inserted, did not choose to pass to the unguarded Pazzini in the middle, but directly volleyed high at a small angle, and Pazzini's own goal outflanked the goal, It was also kicked on goalkeeper Doni.

At half-time, Fiorentina's players walked out of the tunnel with serious faces, Roma still led 1-0, and if they want to achieve the ultimate goal of the treble, Fiorentina has only 45 minutes left.

When Pazzini squandered another chance, Prandelli finally brought on Degan, and the substitution was the turning point for Fiorentina.

The chance came in the 62nd minute when Digan broke through Fiorentina veteran Gambellini in the middle and scored with a tricky and low shot from the edge of the box.

De Valalai, who had been watching the game with bated breath in the stands, was completely relieved at this time, shaking hands and high-fives with the Fiorentina fans in front of him, cheering like an ordinary fan, at this time, Fiorentina had seen the dawn of victory.

This is somewhat ironic, as the Roma manager had said before the game that "Gambellini knows all Fiorentina's attacking players and is our secret weapon", and Dugan's goal was precisely to break through Gamberini's defence.

After the goal, Fiorentina's ability has been completely released, if the previous Fiorentina only played 60%, then after Digan came on the field, Fiorentina played at least 90% of the skill, Digan, Mutu, Hamsik and others successively created threats in front of the goal.

In the 79th minute, after Digan missed a one-on-one goal, Fiorentina launched a second attack in front, and Digan sealed the victory with a volley at the back post, at which point Prandelli jumped from his seat and raised his arms and shouted, at this time, Digan was crushed by his teammates in the rain.

The game instantly entered "garbage time", with Roma fans "waiting to die" in agony, while Fiorentina was enjoying the joy of waiting for the game to end.

At this moment, the championship almost belongs to Fiorentina, the moment the final whistle blew, the Fiorentina fans frantically poured into the stadium, although it was in Rome's territory, but as a Fiorentina fan, how could such a game be missed?

Fiorentina fans blocked the way for the players to get to the Stadio Olimpico and Roma fans and players were devastated by the celebrations of the Fiorentina players, who were faced with a season without results.

Digan was surrounded by the largest number of Fiorentina fans, and his No. 9 shirt had been stripped of by the fans, who patted the shoulders of their heroes and even kissed them, and the rain and tears of happiness mixed together.

Who would have imagined that just a few years ago, this team was almost completely disappeared, and at that time, the most memorable one was Nuno. Gomez's helpless eyes, and the painful tears of the Fiorentina fans, were now replaced by cheers from Deegan and his teammates, scenes of celebration.

Triple Crown! Fiorentina has risen from the ashes and is already at the pinnacle of Italian football.

At this moment, the first treble in the history of Italian football was born, but it seemed that only Fiorentina was happy, and after the victory, Prandelli revealed the fact that he had heard: "When Roma scored, I seemed to hear the whole Italian fans cheering except Fiorentina. ”

Della Valle also said in an interview: "Non-Fiorentina fans all over Italy are on Roma's side, but that's something we're proud of. ”

Such a statement is not an exaggeration, Inter Milan, AC Milan players and Juventus have all publicly expressed their support for Roma before the start of this Italian Cup final, especially Juventus and Roma have always been rivals, once an authoritative Italian media survey showed that Roma fans hate Juventus more than Lazio.

But this time the old rivals are on the side, because they don't want Fiorentina to be at the top of Italian football.

When did Florence become the public enemy of all Italy?

Powerful begets jealousy?

This is the idea of the Fiorentina players, but it is somewhat one-sided, this season, Fiorentina from the beginning of the league, won the championship with a huge advantage, the league lost suspense early, the Champions League, despite the bumpy process, but the result is still Fiorentina dominance.

Fiorentina's strong performance in the Champions League may be acceptable to them, but Fiorentina's strong dominance in the league makes them unbearable.

For Italian football, which is accustomed to going from the "Seven Sisters" to the "Big Four", whether it is fans or public opinion, it may be difficult to accept such a league without competition, so it is extremely eager for the emergence of spoilers.

This season, people once pinned their hopes on Inter Milan, which turned out to be a joke, because Roma may really be able to wrestle with Fiorentina because of the right time, place and many factors, so the whole of Italy is almost unanimously on Roma's side. So any mistake in Florence was put under the microscope.

Just like in this season's league, although Fiorentina has been very strong from start to finish, in fact, they are not easy, people just regard them as nouveau riche, and because of their strength, Fiorentina has attracted the encirclement of the whole Serie A.

Of course, this is not a normal phenomenon, and in order to get rid of the image of the "public enemy of all Italy", Fiorentina needs to continue to establish a higher image in the European arena, so that the entire Italian football community understands that the hope of Italian football is behind the phone.

Fiorentina finally won, and after the victory over Roma, when Digan lifted the Coppa Italia high, he let out a cry and told the whole Shijie: Fiorentina is coming!

Before the start of this season, I am afraid that no one thought that Fiorentina would really get to this point, but if you analyze it carefully, everything seems logical.

The season is over and Fiorentina should now be looking at next season, where it will be Inter Milan, AC Milan, Juventus and Roma who can challenge Fiorentina for the next season.

AC Milan's aging personnel this season has been completely exposed, and the striker line also lacks capable players, which makes Milan's overall strength this season not very strong, and it has to deal with multi-front operations, plus Pirlo, Gattuso, Gilardino These internationals have to deal with the national team game, so they can't support it halfway, so it's not surprising that the ranking is not high.

AC Milan needs to replenish fresh blood as soon as possible and make relatively large additions to the squad before they can appear as a strong team again next season.

Now it seems that AC Milan are actively approaching new signings in both the forward and midfield, but there has been no action at the back, which makes people feel a little strange, if the defense does not add some quality young players, then the prospects for next season will still have a shadow, in short, Milan has come to a big change. However, AC Milan will not be able to play the Champions Cup next season, and they should be a strong contender for the championship if they are seriously preparing for the league.

After the end of the league, Galliani said that AC Milan would forget about the defeat and move on to the construction of the new season.

"From now on, we will start preparing for next season, making a move to the transfer market, our goal is to maintain the skeleton of the existing squad and at the same time strengthen the squad in order to regain competitiveness in Serie A and Europe, I am confident that we can build a strong team," said Galliani. ”

Regarding the transfer, Galliani made an important commitment: "There will be a big name defender, a big name midfielder, and a big name striker in the team, and we will have six or seven new signings. AC Milan fans don't have to worry about the future of the team, I always say that the number one fan of AC Milan is Silvio Berlusconi, and AC Milan will always be at the top level. ”

Youngster Pato has been Milan's biggest takeaway this season, with nine goals in half a season, and he is undoubtedly an important liliang in the future of AC Milan.

Roma is more mature this season than last season, and has also achieved good results in the Champions Cup, although the zuihou stage has not been able to rush up, but with the results of Roma's staffing, it should be said that the potential of the team has been played, it can be said that Spalletti is still very successful in using troops, the reason why Roma's results have not reached the peak is mainly because the bench depth is not enough, including the main players in Europe and even Italy are not the best, and the substitute players are even worse, To be able to play to this extent should be said to be quite good.

One of Roma's standouts this season is Vucinic, who has been able to rise to the top as a scorer with Totti's injury, and has performed very well this season compared to last season's softer form.

In addition, an important gain for Roma this season is Juan, the combination of Juan and Mexes should be said to be a quite successful combination in Serie A, Roma's open-ended style of play with all its strength attack, it is not very good to keep conceding many goals, which should have a lot to do with Juan's joining.

The other is Cassetti, who has also played a very good role at the back. If Roma want to reach the Champions League final and Serie A next season, then they will need to replenish the personnel.

Juventus's introduction of personnel at the beginning of this season is a lot of hope, Andrade, Almiron, etc., soon found that these people are not useful, fortunately Juventus made additions in the winter, especially after the introduction of Sissoko, the midfield finally showed a relatively stable strength, especially in the season Zuihou Sissoko and Camoranesi composed of a double back so that Juventus's attack and defense have strengthened, in Nedved's absence, the combination of the two played an important role.

In addition, Salihamidzic is also a player who is good at both offense and defense, and if he uses it correctly, he is also a very important pawn. Nedved still maintains a tenacious hard work and has been a strong driving force in Juventus' midfield until the injury, plus Zanetti and others can play a defensive role in the midfield, Thiago has also performed in attack, and Juventus is still quite complete in terms of current personnel, but the bench depth is slightly insufficient.

The striker Piero regained his form after the contract renewal, his spirit was greatly relaxed, and he showed the level he should have, which made people see Piero who was almost in his heyday, and Juventus' center Trezeguet scored a lot of goals this season, but it is a little uncertain whether he can maintain his form next season. The addition of Iaquinta has given Juve a strong substitute in the center forward position, even if Trezeguet can't top, Iaquinta is a very good choice, and the teenager Palladino, it should be said that Juve's forward line next season is still impressive.

Juventus' weakness is his backline, Lerotalley can still play as a regular but he always feels like an unstable factor, Ziellini is a good defender, but he lacks a more reliable companion.

Buffon is a huge guarantee for Juventus' defense, anyone who shoots in front of Buffon will feel invisible pressure, and Juventus rarely concede goals has a lot to do with Buffon's super ability.

Juventus, who have returned to the game, has adapted to the rhythm of Serie A and should have a better performance next season, but Juventus will have to fight on two fronts next season, and it may be difficult to compete for the championship in the league with the current squad.

There is also Inter Milan, although the title defense failed, but their ability can not be ignored, the three lines of personnel are neat, and Moratti has promised to invest heavily in the team, the introduction of new signings, at the same time Mancini left, Mourinho is about to take over, will also bring more vitality to Inter Milan, whether the Nerazzurri empire can be established, next season is crucial.

Of course, these are things that need to be considered later, and now all Fiorentina have to do is enjoy their treble.

When the team returned home with a bang, the whole of Florence went crazy when they took to the roof of the Haode parade bus to show off their success to the tens of thousands of Fiorentina fans who had flocked to the stadium.

Parades of celebrations, which can be seen throughout the city, eventually converge on the square in front of the Florence City Government building, where the cheers of "Long live" are endless.

Prandelli, as the head coach of Fiorentina, was pushed by the players to the microphone, and the old Italian handsome man was so excited that he muttered for a long time before he spoke: "I want to thank everyone, the staff of the club, my coaching staff, the players, and of course you, you fans who have always supported us, you are the cornerstone of the Purple Lily, the season is over, we have achieved something in front of us, now is the time to enjoy the victory, cheer to heart's content!" We have a reason to enjoy everything today and then next season, let's keep going! ”

No one will deny Digan's contribution to the Purple Lily Young Guards, who scored a total of 45 goals for Fiorentina in the league this season, winning the title of top scorer for four consecutive seasons, and because of Digan, Fiorentina was injected with a strong heart, and Fiorentina was also crowned Treble winner under his leadership, defeating many strong opponents.

"I always say we won't stop, now we're trebles, but we're still going forward, we still have more work to do, more honours waiting for us, it's going to be a very long process, we're going to win more titles, yes! Just like Coach Prandelli said just now, we want to thank you, you cheered us on from the stands, which gave us endless liliang, and also let us always remember that our mission, Fiorentina will not stand still, our goal is to become the strongest team in the whole Shijie, next season, we will win more titles! ”

The fans were already overwhelmed with excitement at the moment, and immediately after Deegan finished his speech, the crowd erupted in violent cheers.

"Hooray! Rod! Banzai! Florence! ”
