Chapter 694: Getting Better (4)

PS: First of all, I asked for a recommendation vote here, please support me, thank you......

After a narrow win away to Roma, Fiorentina finished their 12-point leap into the table with four wins and one defeat – the Nerazzurri also played a goal shootout against another side from Roma City in the fifth round of the league, only to lose 3-5 to the Blueeagles and give Fiorentina the top spot.

Juventus failed to capitalise on Inter's defeat, and although Zidane's form was gradually recovering, Pierrot's form, another key figure, was still in a slump, leaving the Bianconeri at the hands of a "strengthened" Vicenza side, and could only watch as the opportunity to overtake Inter Milan in the standings slipped past them.

After defeating Juventus, Guidolin's team has five games, three wins and two draws, accumulating eleven points, leaving Juventus, Milan, Roma and Parma behind, only one point behind Fiorentina!

Vicenza's extremely eye-catching performance, coupled with the three big games with Fiorentina at the beginning of the season, has once again attracted the attention of many teams, such as Ambrosini and Koko, which belong to Vicenza's high-quality assets, are even more coveted by many team managers and managers.

"It seems that Vicenza will soon suffer the fate of being divided by a single team, just like Ajax and Monaco." In the office of the president of Fiorentina, Karin handed Zhuang Mingge the Milan sports newspaper of the day, and said, "I think that when the transfer period is approaching, there will definitely be many people in charge of the club who will come to greet Tony and you, and I hope you can open up and let them buy those players in Vicenza, right?" ”

"Well, Karin, you're right, those people are indeed a little unable to sit still, especially after seeing Vicenza's powerful performance lately." Zhuang Mingge opened the newspaper, briefly glanced at the headline on it, and found that there were many articles about the departure and retention of the players in the Vicenza team next season, "Moreover, there are already teams that have begun to make moves to Vicenza, Galliani just called me yesterday to ask if I agree with him to buy, and promised that AC Milan will never take any unconventional means in the transfer, and will follow the formal transfer procedures." ”

"Galliani didn't say what kind of conditions AC Milan would use in return for Fiorentina if you acceded to his request?" Karin's eyes widened in disbelief, and there was a puzzled look in her pale blue eyes, "He doesn't want us Fiorentina to give them AC Milan compulsory work, right?" ”

"Of course not, while Galliani's bald man is indeed shrewd in the transfer market, the difference between him and Moggi is that Galliani is more focused on maintaining good relations between AC Milan and other teams. The transfer operated by him will basically make both sides of the transaction happy, and will not leave any bad impression on the other party. Regarding Karin's doubts, Zhuang Mingge explained, saying, "Galliani said that if we agree to their offer behavior in Vicenza, then Fiorentina will give certain convenience and preferential treatment if they want to buy someone from AC Milan in the future." ”

"This condition sounds good, and even if we don't agree, it is estimated that it will be difficult for Vicenza to last long under AC Milan's money offensive, so it is better to give Galliani a favor, and maybe we will be able to use this relationship in the future." After listening to Zhuang Mingge's narration, Karin thought about it and gave her own advice, "It's better for us to promise him like this." ”

"Well, I'll think about it." Zhuang Mingge knew that the reason why Galliani greeted him was mainly to give Fiorentina, which is also a giant team, a face, so as not to shackle the two sides because of what happened to Vicenza.

After talking about Vicenza, let's look at Florence. The Purple Lily, who have returned to the top of the table with this victory against Roma, will face PSV Eindhoven, one of the three giants of the Netherlands, in the coming week.

This time, UEFA finally didn't mess around anymore, allowing Fiorentina to finally make their home debut in the Champions League this season when they reached the third round of the Champions League group stage.

Although the match against PSV Eindhoven was described by the outside media as a strong confrontation in Group B, when Zhuang Mingge saw Bobby Robson's starting line-up, he realized what the shrewd British coach had in mind.

If nothing else, PSV Eindhoven's leading scorer Ruud van Nistelrooy and defensive stalwart Oye did not appear in the starting list for this game, and there was no news of injury between the two before the game, so the old Robson's lineup in this game is worth Zhuang Mingge's fun.

Obviously, with Fiorentina in Group B, they are far ahead of Rosenborg, Athletic Bilbao and PSV Eindhoven. PSV Eindhoven were also the strongest of the remaining three teams, so Robson Sr. decided to adopt a strategy of horse racing (although the English coach did not know the allusion). The PSV Eindhoven boss decided to hide some of his squad against Fiorentina and focus on the lesser-than-strong teams of Rosenborg and Athletic Bilbao to increase PSV Eindhoven's chances of progressing from the group.

So, in the face of such a deliberately waterproof version of Eindhoven, the shrewd Capello did not let the players kill the opponent on the field, but played a "good brothers" with the old Robson very tacitly, and began to take the initiative to restrain the players after the team took the lead, and did not stage a one-sided massacre at the Frankie Stadium.

The reason why Capello did this is mainly because he, like Zhuang Mingge, saw through the old Robson's intention to retain his strength, and knew that the probability of Fiorentina winning this game after taking the lead was very high, and there was no need to let the main players fight the opponent. After all, there is still a long time before the end of the season, and it really doesn't make much sense to spend energy on a game that is basically done.

The old Robson, who had made up his mind to retain his strength in the away game against Fiorentina from the beginning, was also quite cooperative, and when the team was two goals down, Robson replaced the team's other main scorer Nellis and midfielder Arnold Brookingke, and bluntly announced that he surrendered and gave the victory to the home team.

In this way, with the extra-terrestrial Ronaldo's brace in this game, Fiorentina beat PSV Eindhoven 2-0 at home and won a victory!
