Inzaghi's goal ignited the enthusiasm of thousands of Fiorentina fans in the Alp Stadium, who were already worried about the fate of the team because they were playing away from home, and cheered and celebrated in the stands after seeing the referee announce the goal valid!

However, Lippi's Juventus are clearly not going to be knocked down by a mere goal. Less than ten minutes after Inzaghi opened the scoring for the Purple Lily, the Bianconeri broke through the Fiorentina defence in an attack and were awarded a penalty!

This time it was Grosso who made a big contribution to Juventus, the left-back first played a wonderful one-two with Nedved to break through the right side of Zambrotta's defense, and then he decisively chose to cut inside, rushed into the Fiorentina penalty area before Zambrotta returned to the defense, and then deceived Lucio who came over with a feint to get a chance to challenge Buffon directly!

was directly passed by Grosso with a feint, and Lucio, who felt very faceless, inevitably became a little hot-blooded, so he made a big mistake under the influence of emotions. He was in the penalty area and completely out of position, and in a hurry, he actually reached out and grabbed Grosso's jersey directly!

Seeing that the opponent actually gave such a big gift, Grosso naturally did not refuse, and immediately fell to the ground in response to the strength of the Brazilian, and the referee's whistle also resounded throughout the stadium...... Penalty kick!

Noticing that the referee's hand was pointing twelve yards, Lucio woke up to what kind of low-level mistake he had just made - he shouldn't have dragged down an opposing player in the box anyway, and even if it was better to let Grosso take the ball to Buffon than to give the opponent a penalty!

The worst thing is that, strictly speaking, Lucio's foul is still pulling people behind in the penalty area. So, even if the referee sends him off the pitch with a red card, Lucio has nothing to complain about.

Fortunately, the referee did not show Lucio a red card for a foul in the box this time, but only awarded Juventus a penalty. This means that in the coming period, Florence will not fall into the situation of fighting with ten men.

Juventus' first penalty taker was undoubtedly Del Pierrot, only to see the Bianconeri Prince accelerate a run, deceived Buffon in front of the goal, and easily pushed the bottom right corner of the goal to tie the score at 1-1!

"Alas, Gianluigi Buffon, the goalkeeper, is good at everything, but he is too average when it comes to saving penalties." Watching Pierrot steadily score the penalty, Zhuang Mingge couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "I really didn't expect that Grosso at this time already had such a good sense of assisting." It seems that Joseph (Heynckes) is still too careless, if Grosso's assist ability had been more guarded, then the penalty just now probably would not have happened. ”

Although he was amazed by Grosso in his heart, due to his different positions, Zhuang Mingge would not be happy that Juventus, a sworn enemy, had received a strong reinforcement. And the reason why he pays so much attention to Grosso is mainly because Grosso's growth proves that he has always insisted on the view that Italy's new generation of players is not as bad as people say, as long as they are allowed to get enough training in the process of growing up and seriously cultivated, they can grow into stars in their own right.

In Zhuang Mingge's view, the reason why Italian football in the previous life will be short of fresh blood after the new century, and even face the dilemma of no one available after winning the World Cup in Germany in 06, the giants led by the top three in the north absolutely bear the unshirkable responsibility.

You must know that AC Milan at that time would rather give old antiques such as Serginho and Favali a lot of playing time, rather than give more opportunities for local players such as Antonini and Abate to prove themselves; Needless to say, Inter Milan, who has always appeared in front of fans as an international column, has always provided only a handful of international players to the Italian national team under the Nerazzurri under the rule of Boss Mo; Even Juventus, who claim to be the most home-grown players, did not have many young players from Italy in their main squad before the call, and it was not until they were forced to be relegated to the second division that they were under pressure to produce local rookies such as Giorgio Chiellini and Marchisio.

Of course, compared to the Milan duo, Juventus have done a good job in this regard, at least before the callgate, the Bianconeri also produced players such as Zambrotta and Camoranesi, who were only half-finished when they joined the team.

It is precisely because of the neglect of the cultivation of local players by the top three in the north, coupled with the decline of middle and upper reaches teams such as Roma and Parma due to the financial crisis after entering the new century, it is difficult to provide a stable and good high-level stage for local players to play their talents, that the Italian football in the previous life declined rapidly after the aging of the stars of the generation of Nesta and Totti, and fell into an embarrassing situation where no one was available.

And now, under the vigorous promotion of Zhuang Mingge, the Italian Football Federation has announced a series of targeted reform measures, and made clear regulations on the number of youth players and local players in the first team of Serie A teams, forcing those clubs who are eager for quick success and want to improve their performance through the formation of international columns have to start paying attention to this aspect of things.

It can be said that the arrival of Zhuang Mingge and the rise of Fiorentina in this life have played a very positive role in Italy's local youth training - after all, in the case of youth quota restrictions, no matter which Serie A club has to reserve a place for its own academy players that meet the minimum requirements of the league, otherwise, they will face the serious consequences of being forced to reduce the number of first-team players available for the new season.

Therefore, after several years of reform and adaptation, Serie A clubs now attach great importance to the development of domestic players. After all, no one wants to see a bunch of first-team players in the squad occupying those spots reserved for homegrown and academy players, which will not only affect the team's fighting ability, but also have an extremely bad impact on the dressing room. On the other hand, if these spots are put to good use, then these players are bound to be of great help to the team!

As a result, under the guidance of this kind of thinking, many Italian players who did not play in their previous lives or were late bloomers, such as Glendoni and Grosso, have made a name for themselves in this life, touched the threshold of the national team, or become important members of the national team.

At this time, the first half of the game ended at the referee's whistle, and Juventus and Fiorentina were tied 1-1 in the first 45 minutes, and they had to wait until after the break to determine the final winner!
