PS3: Here, I would like to thank the book friend "Tian Yuan Han Chess" for his reward.

After the match, many who watched the game agreed that Fiorentina did not take a win from the Stadio de la Love Song because of the bad luck of the Purple Lily today, coupled with the heroic performance of Senna and Tacinadi. If this were not the case, Fiorentina would probably not have to wait for the second leg of the meeting with Villarreal to book a ticket to Paris (the city where the 05-06 Champions League final was held).

However, for those fans who only saw the final scoreline, Fiorentina's 0-0 draw in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final was a real surprise. Therefore, there are not a few people who are impressed with Villarreal after the game, and even touted it - the clean sheet against Fiorentina in the game, even if there is an element of luck in it, is enough to show that Villarreal is indeed very good at two brushes.

Apart from this group of fans, the Argentine media were naturally most excited about Villarreal's first-leg draw with Fiorentina. In the eyes of these media, Villarreal's ability to achieve such a good result, beating a top club like Juventus in the Champions League and drawing with Fiorentina in the first leg is entirely due to Riquelme, the heart of the field!

Now that Riquelme can bring a small club like Villarreal to the semi-finals of the Champions Cup, and even have the hope of qualifying for the final, is it very likely that Argentina, who has made him the core of the team and more powerful, will win the Hercules Cup again after 20 years at this year's World Cup in Germany?

For this argument of the Argentine media, Fiorentina fans and the Italian media are scoffing - obviously Makelele and Ballack defended Riquelme in this game, and they didn't even make a few threatening kicks, how did it get to the mouths of these people, and it became Riquelme who single-handedly led Villarreal to draw with Fiorentina? If it weren't for Senna and Tachinadi, Fiorentina would have been able to call Villarreal a long time ago if Riquelme had relied on Riquelme.

It is true that without Riquelme, Villarreal, who has neither financial resources nor background, may not have been able to go so far in the Champions Cup in his life, but in terms of this Champions Cup semi-final alone, under the targeted defense of Fiorentina, Riquelme's play can really only be said to be average, but it has played a certain role in the offensive end.

Although the outside world can be said to have different opinions about this game, Mourinho has not bothered to pay attention to the opinions of these people. After all, for Fiorentina now, the priority is to secure the league title as soon as possible so that the players can devote their full attention to the Champions League - Mourinho is very much looking forward to the possibility of winning the first trophy of his managerial career.

After all, unlike those coaches who had a brilliant playing era and only took up the reins after retiring, Mourinho had only spent a few years in the Portuguese third division as a player, and Mourinho, who had no qualifications to speak of, was in desperate need of a heavyweight trophy to add weight to himself. Last season's Serie A title was just a good start for the Portuguese, and Mourinho will have to continue to win the heavyweight title after that in order to have any hope of squeezing into the ranks of top managers in the truest sense of the word, rather than becoming a meteor in the coaching world.

For example, Carlo Ancelotti, who has been famous in Italian football since his playing days, became the coach of Parma just four years after retiring from football, and even if he is known as the "second in ten thousand years", he can still change owners between several top clubs. If you look at Sacchi, Cooper and Ranieri, who were unknown as players, a single painful defeat was enough to put them in a situation from which they could never recover, from a famous coach to a nobody.

Fiorentina players may find it difficult to understand Mourinho's current state of mind, but like Mourinho, they are unlikely to resist the temptation of winning the Big Ears Cup. Therefore, when Mourinho poured them with chicken soup for the soul, these players all ran to training with a roar, eager to get the league field right away, and then bagged the Big Ears Cup.

So, after returning to Italy, the Fiorentina players who visited the Barbera Stadium faced the home dragon of Palermo, and it only took one first half for Palermo to surrender. And the biggest contributor to the complete extinguishing of Palermo's Devil's home stadium before it had time to exert its power was Croatian teenager Luka Modric!

In this game, Luka Modric kept Fiorentina's midfield in order, and he was almost everywhere in attack, providing very strong support to his team-mates on the pitch and setting up Di Natale to open the scoring. In addition, Fiorentina's other two goals in the first half, although not direct assists from Modric, were also inseparable from the youngster's aggressive front-court tandem.

At the end of the game, Modric also scored a stunning long-range shot in the 85th minute of the second half, which not only locked the score at 4-0, but also drew a perfect end to his outstanding performance in this game!

Thanks to Luka Modric's excellent performance and the excellent performance of the rotation players, Fiorentina beat Palermo by four goals on the road, and a full four points ahead of second-placed Juventus with only two league games remaining!

To be honest, the league has played to this point, and there is actually no suspense about the final ownership of the championship. Especially in the case of Fiorentina's opponents in the last two rounds of Reggina and Chievo, two teams with no hope of relegation and no hope of European competition, Juventus' hope of completing a comeback is simply slim!

However, even after being in such an unfavorable situation, Juventus did not show any intention of surrendering early. Both Trapattoni and Juventus players were adamant in their interviews that they would fight for the league title until the last minute!

In this way, after a big away win over Palermo, Fiorentina welcomed the second leg of the match between Villarreal at the Stadio Frankie on May 3. At the same time, this is also the second time that the Purple Lily has played Riquelme, the last classical midfield grandmaster in international football today!
