Chapter 464: The Decisive Battle of Munich (4)

Being suppressed by the opponent from the beginning of the game made the Dortmund players feel quite depressed, after all, they are also the team that has completed the Bundesliga two times in a row!

Although the gold content of the Bundesliga champion at this time is not as valuable as Serie A, it will not be beaten so embarrassed!

"It seems that Capello did understand what I said to him." Seeing that the two steals of the Fiorentina players in the front court almost formed a goal, Zhuang Mingge, who was sitting in the box watching the game, thought to himself.

Previously, when preparing for the Champions Cup final, Zhuang Mingge made a more detailed analysis of Capello, and directly pointed out that Dortmund's biggest weakness is the poor physical fitness of Sosa and Summer.

Yes, although Borussia Dortmund's Paulo Sousa and Summerer are capable of performing at superstar level on the pitch, they are seriously lacking in fitness due to long-term injury fatigue, and if they play at a normal pace, it is estimated that the two will have to lie down after an hour of the game.

It wouldn't be a big deal if it happened to Fiorentina, as Capello could immediately find two players of similar quality from the first team, but Dortmund are not a team with a lot of bench depth and Heathfield could not find a replacement for two on the Dortmund bench.

As a result, Heathfield had to arrange for the team to adopt more of a steady and steady strategy when attacking, slowing down the pace of the game as much as possible, and asking other players to increase the range of movement, through these measures to reduce the physical exertion of Sosa and Summer.

It has to be said that the Dortmund players have implemented Heathfield's tactics quite successfully, and Paulo Sousa and Summer, who were able to play the whole game, played a huge role in Dortmund's Champions League road this season, leading the team that was watched by Haode at the beginning of the season to reach the final of the European Champions League for the first time.

If it weren't for Zhuang Mingge, they would have beaten Juventus managed by Silver Fox Lippi 3-1 in this Champions Cup final and become a new member of the Champions League winning club.

However, the appearance of Zhuang Mingge changed everything that was supposed to happen.

Under Zhuang Mingge's suggestion, Capello realized the biggest weakness of the Dortmund team, that is, the poor physical condition of Sosa and Summer, as long as they find a way to drag down these two players as soon as possible, then Dortmund, who has lost the playmaker and the spiritual leader of the team, will not run smoothly and control the game will be greatly reduced.

If Borussia Dortmund can slow down the tempo as much as possible, the two players will be able to guarantee a good performance throughout the game...... But what if Fiorentina deliberately increased the tempo of the game and at the same time increased the intensity of the siege of Dortmund's midfield?

I'm afraid that the first to hold on are these two players who are regarded by the Dortmund as the pillars of the team.

Therefore, at Capello's request, the Fiorentina players deliberately raised the tempo of the game to a very high level, and at the same time launched a ferocious press on Dortmund's central midfield, in order to deplete the opponent's players in this way, especially the two key targets of Paulo Sousa and Summer.

You must know that among the players who entered the starting list of Fiorentina for this game, the oldest Ferrara is only a young man, and the youngest Zambrotta has only just turned 20. Among the several players in the front field, Djokaeff is 29 years old, Ronaldo is 20 years old, and Batistuta is 28 years old, all of whom are in their prime.

On the other hand, among Dortmund's midfielders, the 26-year-old goalkeeper Stefan Klos is the youngest player in the starting eleven, and among the rest, Summerr is 30 years old, Reut, Kohler and Klay are all 32 years old, Heinrich and Lambert are 28 years old, and Paul Sousa is only 27 years old, but frequent injuries have made his pace slower and slower, and at the same time, whether the three central defenders who are over 30 years old can cope with the impact of Ronaldo and others is also a big question mark.

Not to mention the frontcourt, Dortmund is actually the only one under the age of 30, and Fiorentina in the backfield, except for Redondo (28 years old) and Ferrara (30 years old), the others are not even under the age of 26......

This means that the younger Fiorentina players are more physically able to recover than their Borussia Dortmund counterparts, so they can be more aggressive on the pitch and disrupt Dortmund's backcourt passes with a lot of running.

Heathfield saw Capello's intentions, but he didn't think of any way to deal with it. After all, although German players are known for their strong willpower and ability to run, it depends on the situation. You let a group of old men with an average age of over thirty go and play laps with a bunch of young men in their twenties? Isn't this death?!

So, in terms of fitness, the Fiorentina lads are much better than the old-fashioned Dortmunds.

This is one of the tricks that Capello has prepared for Fiorentina to win this Champions League final against Borussia Dortmund!

In this game, the Fiorentina players made the most of their physical strengths, and the aggressive front-court siege made it impossible for Paulo Sousa and Summerer to calmly organise the attack at the back. In the absence of central and backfield support, Dortmund's front, with Andrés Muller as the core of the attack, has become a rootless tree and a source of water, and the threat to the Fiorentina goal is greatly reduced.

Dortmund's attack could not be played, and correspondingly, Fiorentina's attack became more and more aggressive.

In the sixteenth minute of the game, Fiorentina finally scored the first goal of the game!

Heinrich's wide break was blocked by Djokaeff and Carlos, and the ball was diverted to the right by the Frenchman's big foot, and Ronaldo accelerated to easily get rid of Reut's defence, and then lifted his right foot to unload the ball.

Borussia Dortmund's players rushed back to defend when they saw this, but Paulo Sousa once again dragged them back: the Portuguese did not keep an eye on Redondo, who was inserted in the attack, causing the Argentine prince to curl a ball at the top of the box after receiving a return pass from an alien!

The ball bypassed Coral who was grabbing, Summerer who was about to fly to block the eye, Clos who jumped into the air with his outstretched arms, and then drilled headlong into the door of Dortmund!

Just 16 minutes into the game, Fiorentina took a 1-0 lead over Dortmund in the final!
